sometimes i browse zionist blogs just to see what the current talking points are and it always feels like an incredible game of dancing around the point. "jewish people have lived there for centuries" yes true. why are we funding the bombing of civilians. "living under hamas sucks and people in gaza hate them too." yeah i imagine many people in gaza have varying thoughts on the situation. why are we funding the bombing of civllians. "i saw some random twitter account say something antisemetic." im sorry that you were exposed to that. why are we funding the bombing of civilians.

  • yemen is the poorest nation in the arab world. but in two weeks time, it did what no oil or gas- rich arab nation could do. by seizing three ships and costing i****l more than 2 billion by forcing its ships to go around africa, yemen showed up.

Just a reminder that Yemen has risked it ALL for Palestine, as they are going through one of the worst humanitarian crisis' ever. Due to their resilience, the puppets at the UN have decided to exclude them from the world food program. Yemen is STARVING. Please consider donating towards their hunger crisis. Let's show up for Yemen.

I’m in the process of organizing a gofundme for a family to get out of Gaza and into Egypt. If anyone with a big following on Twitter can help me spread it there, please let me know.

I’m really, deadly serious about this. Please do contact me if you or someone you know could help. If some tumblr blogs with significant followings can volunteer to spread it when it’s ready, too, please send me a message and I’ll send you a post with the link as soon as it’s ready

Here we go. This fundraiser is for @90-ghost and I’ve had it set up on his behalf because gofundme isn’t available in Palestine. I’m collaborating with a DC-based organization to help spread this on Facebook, but it’s been put together on short notice and the reach is limited, so we need your help: the need for someone to help spread it on Twitter still stands.

In case anyone is suspicious, I hate to have to do this, but I’ve reverse-searched Ahmed’s images (featured in the gofundme), checked his posts to see that he does use authentic Palestinian Arabic to the best of my knowledge (my family is from the West Bank and I’ve been there a lot), checked the story of his sister from 2021 and found confirmation of her murder, etc. If you have questions about me, well, Ahmed will vouch for me, and you can see from looking at my blog that this is a cause that has been near and dear to me for a long time; I’m Palestinian and would sooner die than do wrong by a fellow Palestinian fleeing death itself. Please help Ahmed by donating and/or spreading far and wide!

What has happened in Gaza since the truce ended a mere 16 hours ago — do keep in mind that some of these source links include videos of what is described.

• Israel’s military said it had 'resumed combat' in Gaza where air strikes were reported as the seven-day truce came to an end on Friday morning local time. [ source ]
• The Israeli warplanes started bombing Gaza as soon as the temporary ceasefire expired. [ source ]

• The Israeli warplanes bomb a home in Rafah, southern Gaza. [ source ]
• A little girl lost her father by Israeli air strike in the middle area of Gaza. [ source ]
• A wife bids farewell to her husband who was killed by Israeli bombardment in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. [ source ]
• A mother bids farewell to her 5 month old baby who was killed in an air strike in Gaza. [ source ]

• Heavy Israeli air strikes in Khan Younis city, southern Gaza. [ source ]
• Israeli warplanes destroy the home of the Hessi family in Khan Younis refugee camp, southern Gaza. [ source ]
• Palestinians rescue a girl from the rubble of her home that was bombed by Israeli warplanes. [ source ]
• Civil defense crews rescue a number of residents and evacuate bodies of martyrs from the rubble of a home in Shejaeya neighborhood, east of Gaza. [ source ]

Over 100 Palestinians were killed since the end of the temporary ceasefire in Gaza, today. [ source ]

• Medics are dealing with 'large numbers' of wounded Palestinians seeking treatment in overcrowded hospitals following the resumption of Israeli air strikes on Gaza, says Gaza's health ministry. [ source ]
• A little child tries to calm down his baby brother after they were injured by an air strike in Gaza. [ source ]
• A series of heavy Israeli air strikes bombed several sites in southern Gaza Strip. [ source ]
• Palestinian children bid farewell to their father who was killed by Israeli bombardment in Khan Younis. [ source ]
• A fire broke out following the bombing of Jabalia refugee camp with white phosphorus. [ source ]
• Israel preventing aid trucks from entering Gaza via Rafah border crossing, PRCS says [ source ]
• A child was injured by the Israeli occupation bombing of Abu Nada family home in Al-Jeneina neighborhood, east of Rafah. [ source ]

• The ministry of health says in a statement that 178 Palestinians have been killed and 589 injured since morning. [ source ]

• The Gaza Strip has been under “relentless Israeli bombardment”. [ source ]
• The Palestinian Red Crescent Society says Israeli forces have informed 'all organisations and entities' operating at the Rafah crossing that the entry of aid trucks to Gaza is 'prohibited, starting from today' and until further notice. [ source ]
• The Israeli warplanes carried out a series of heavy air strikes on Gaza city. [ source ]

This list is not exhaustive. There are bodies under the rubble, missing from the death count, there are stories of atrocities gone unreported. Let that sink in, that this is not even the full extent of what has occurred since the truce agreement expired. The children of Gaza have gone back to living in fear, constantly hearing the sounds of warplanes over their heads. The people of Gaza have gone back to expecting to die.

It is far from time to lose steam. This is not over just because the bombing stopped for a week. The genocide continues and has been ramped up. Do not stop talking about Palestine. Do not stop bearing witness to what is happening. Do not stop demanding that it ends.

in all seriousness, a few resources i think are helpful with regards to understanding just how thoroughly henry kissinger screwed the world over:

  • kissinger by behind the bastards. this is a 6 part series done by the podcast behind the bastards, with the hosts of the dollop on as guests. it's super funny and a very accessible foothold into understanding the scope of kissinger's vast career.
  • kissinger's shadow by greg grandin. this book provides an in-depth analysis of kissinger's tenure in the white house, covering both how he got into office, the changes he made in office, the policies he put forth, and their repercussions on the world.
  • the trial of henry kissinger by christopher hitchins. while grandin's book focuses less on the specificities of kissinger's crimes, hitchins has no such qualms and details each of them in depth.

i truly think understanding kissinger, the way he thought, and the things that he did, are all indispensable when it comes to understanding the modern political climate and how foreign policy works in america and therefore, by necessity, in the world at large. the sheer amount of damage he was responsible for should never be underestimated.
