Most people haven’t watched any of the footage from the Oct 7 2023 Hamas attacks in Israel just outside Gaza. It’s not for everyone; in fact, it’s age restricted, so signing in may be required for you to view it.

It’s footage that changed me. It will change you, too.

Saleh Aljafarawi, Gaza's Mr FAFO, the cat with 9 lives, a Hamas media specialist, was killed in fighting with the Dagmoushah Family (25 of that family were executed, too) inside Gaza. Gaza is ruled by mafia-style families. Mr FAFO was w/ a Hamas family.

WAS.

So, "Mr FAFO" in Gaza, is alleged to have been killed by member of the Dagmoush family in the fighting above.

The Dagmoush family is a Hamas rival, so Mr FAFO was working for Hamas. See how that works? He was their mouthpiece. I just new video of him Friday.

I think it's true. More accounts are confirming. Mr FAFO finally FAFO, it seems. Which is and was inevitable. Because Gaza is a lawless den of barbarism and death in its natural state.

Dear Queers for Palestine:

It’s your choice entirely, but I would not hop on the first plane to Gaza if I were you.
You may be feeling froggy right now that the conflict is winding down but please remember this: you are not the frog 🐸 👇.

I don't know why Rubio doesn't just tell the UN no; we fund them at $23 Billion/annually. And to fire Francesca Albanese. She's insider opposition at the UN and it's not right or fair. There are 50 Muslim majority nations at the UN. Palestinians don't need any more special treatment.

My “don’t worry about China, it will all be fine” shirt has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by my shirt

A tweet from Donald Trump that reads “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!! President DJT”

Gaza has always been a battleground between different "families" that are prominent in Gaza. The Dagmoush family is (was?) one such family.

This is how "justice" is done in Gaza - frequently who kills the other, first.

From Eitan Fischberger on X:

🚨Breaking: Hamas executed 25 members of the Dagmoush family.

According to firsthand accounts, gunmen disguised as medics entered the family's area in ambulances, then executed the people in front of their families

Unless they get leaders who can deradicalize them, there will never be peace. Their behavior in the streets right now confirms how far there is yet to go.

The family of Segev Kalfon has begun packing a bag for him of his favourite things to have right away after his release.

It’s all happening. These little moments are what make it feel so real in the best way. 💜

the previous cook county state’s attorney, kim foxx, had a policy of not prosecuting “nonviolent” charges from protests.

current sa eileen o’neill burke has taken a much more carceral approach than her predecessor. how will she proceed?

Dear @govpritzker.illinois.gov you don’t have to do even this much 👇. To have the same tenacity as Trump, pull back all your Troopers.
You have no constitutional obligation to protect federal abuses of constitutional rights. STOP THIS. TRUMP WOULD IF THE ROLES WERE REVERSED.

state police continue to push protesters down 25th street. at one point, cops swarmed a group of people and pushed them to the ground.

Honestly, I watched that nonsense unfold over on X and many there wanted to let them sail on to Gaza. Where their ships would be stolen for weapons transport and she and her friends would be gang-rap*d and then shot in the city town square. Then, NEXT.
