Not one government has told Israel to stop kidnapping their citizens in international waters and let them bring baby formula to starving babies. What a shameful time to be alive

I feel like I am losing my mind from the constant sound of explosions and rockets…

The bombing never stops every minute, Israeli warplanes launch a new series of strikes.

The situation here in Gaza is catastrophic and extremely dangerous.

They have already dropped 200,000 tons of explosives on the people of Gaza.
Do you realize what that means?
It is the equivalent of 13 nuclear bombs like the one that destroyed Hiroshima.

And yet, the world remains silent while an entire population is being wiped out.

Since October 8, 2023, "not once did any of [.] these programs see fit to interview a single Palestinian or Palestinian-American":
1. NBC's Meet the Press
2. ABC's This Week With George Stephanopoulos
3. CNN's State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash

In 2 Years of Gaza Genocide, Sunday Shows on NBC, ABC and CNN Have Not Featured a Single Palestinian Guest

In a microcosm of the U.S. coverage of Israel’s war on Gaza, since Oct. 7, 2023, influential Sunday news shows have not seen fit to book any Palestinians.

Peanut butter with jam and cheese on toast. Literally it’s fruit and nuts with cheese, but there have been freakouts when I mention this.

Best breakfast in a hurry. Or dinner when I barely care to eat.

"If Israeli jets are flying thanks to Azerbaijani oil that is sold through Turkey, that means we are all complicit in this crime."

"It looks like Turkey cares more about money than Palestinian people's lives."

Is Turkey doing all it can for Palestine?

Ankara has limited trade, but activists face trial for demanding end to oil transfers.
