The latest set of Gaza diaries from Palestinian writer and politician Atef Abu Saif is up now on @thenation.com. I have run out of ways to stress how essential they are at a time when it is harder than ever to find out what is happening in Gaza. Please, please read. www.thenation.com/article/worl...
Before turning in, I chatted with my great-aunt Noor. She is possibly the only surviving family member who was actually born in Jaffa, before the Nakba. With her mother and father, she had to flee their beautiful house to spend most of the rest of her childhood in a tent, a few miles north of here. My whole life she's told me the story of the day she had to drop her textbooks and run out of the house and down the street when she heard shells flying over from Tel Aviv. She remembers how upset she'd been at the time that she hadn't brought her textbooks with her. She loved her school in Jaffa, and she never went to another school again. As she told me the story again, last night, I could tell she was mixing up some of the details with the hasty departure from her house in Jabalia a few weeks ago. This morning, a football suddenly flew through the [tent] opening onto my lap. I smiled to hear three kids calling politely from outside, asking for their ball back. Then, all of a sudden, ten more kids seemed to have gathered at the little gate that Jumma had set up to separate our tents from the rest of the camp. I joke to [a] boy that he should be in school. He points to the sky and says simply: "War." "Do you like school?" I ask him. "I don't like math." I laugh. "When I was your age, I didn't like math either." "And I also don't like war," he adds loudly as if to make himself very clear. The news is full of the prisoners and hostages, along with statements being made by leaders around the world. Everyone seems happy that they've been released, but no one mentions the infinite price that has been paid for it by the innocent people of Gaza. Thousands still lie under the rubble, denied a decent burial. Hatim and Huda, my brother- and sister-in-law, and their son Mohammed have now been under the ruins of their house for 43 days. No one thinks of them. World leaders congratulate themselves, as my in-laws rot in the rubble. My family home was destroyed last night. The F16 pilot chose our particular house. With all the tech at their disposal, the Israelis could've seen it was empty. But still, that was the pilot's mission last night, to destroy my family home and six others. I didn't think of saying goodbye or "Stay safe" to the house. I assumed I'd see it all again: the wooden staircase, the photos from my graduation, the framed photo of my late brother Naeem that hung on the wall the whole time he was in jail, and ever since. My dad no longer has anywhere to sleep. He WhatsApp-called me at 6:30 this morning. "The house is gone," he said, and nothing else. His voice was trembling and I could see the tears in his eyes. Now a 74-year-old man is homeless for no other reason than someone made a strategic decision to make him suffer.

I continue *bomb explodes a child* to be baffled at why poll numbers *child explodes* look so grim for Biden *child explodes* when he's got a better *child explodes* record than any single-term President in my *child explodes* life. How has messaging gotten so bad all *child explodes* the sudden?
