hey, don’t cry. one half flour one half yogurt knead into dough and fry for easy flatbread and dip in balsamic vinegar, okay?

After three batches, my findings so far:

  • I use full fat Greek yoghurt and self-rising flour
  • Ratio by weight
  • Add a pinch of salt
  • Knead until no longer sticky, adding more flour if necessary
  • Roll them with olive oil instead of flour and fry in an otherwise unoiled, preheated pan (medium heat) (trust in the lord; it will seem like it's going to stick to the pan at first but they'll unstick in about 15 seconds)
  • Roll them thin but not too thin; mine take about 45 seconds on either side
  • Serving with garlic butter is also a very good option

Repost of Instagram post by alessandra_sanguinetti:

“In 2004 I worked as an intern in Newsweek and had to go through the wires coming in from the Middle East.

The Iraq war was raging. Israel was committing its routine violations and killings.

The images were devastating and unequivocally condemning of both the USA and Israel, but I remember the editors would reject all my picks and demand images of burnt cars or vague images of destruction.

So I brought a hard drive and collected everything they didn't publish.

It was my first live glimpse of the lack of ethics or integrity in most US media.

Not the journalists on the ground, but of the senior editors making the calls - in their self important glass cubicles.

And no, to the cynics out there..it's not all too complicated to discuss on social media.

Social media is the only reason we know what's happening in Palestine.

And the only reason mainstream news has to keep up and sprinkle some actual news now and then.

Meanwhile we are seeing much less footage coming out of Gaza - Israel has been killing off all the journalists.

This is terrifying.”

They were then slowly starved and finally exterminated. Almost a perfect description of the hell in Rafah today except it's 1.5 million people. And they said "Never Again"”] END ID.

Everyone can understand at a corporate level that Starbuck is hurting financially in a big way right now. But let me share some insight at a single store level.

I've have friends who work at Starbucks. We're all very open with what goes on behind the scenes at our jobs because we truly don't care about keeping company secrets. We were all talking about how annoying work has been lately and they had volunteered some info on the weekly earnings at their storefront and the numbers are pure garbage!

I was told their Starbucks is only turning a profit of $3000 a week. Now those numbers might sound impressive off the bat, but my friends assured me those numbers were terrible because before the protests they would pull $7000 a week!

The protests have cut their sales by more than half! They're basically only selling less than $40 an hour! If a mom and pop store pulled those numbers they'd be foreclosing their shop as we speak!

Starbucks is hurting. McDonald's is hurting. Many brands and stores are feeling the weight of their anti Palestinian views and they're maulding!! The protests are working. Hurt them some more!

Norman R. Morrison was an American anti-war activist. On November 2, 1965, Morrison doused himself in kerosene and set himself on fire below the office of Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara at the Pentagon to protest United States involvement in the Vietnam War, leading to his death. 

 On February 25, 2024, Aaron Bushnell, a 25-year-old serviceman of the United States Air Force, died after setting himself on fire outside the front gate of the Embassy of Israel in Washington. Bushnell said that he was protesting against "what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers" and declared that he "will no longer be complicit in genocide", after which he doused himself with a flammable liquid and set himself on fire

The thing is... Israel admitted to this from the very beginning.

They said the confessions were obtained through 'interrogation' in the Shin Bet aka torture (Shin Bet is where they like to torture Palestinian prisoners for intel) so every country that cut funding to the UNRWA knew from the beginning that Israel was using false forced statements.

The famine in Gaza is partly due to this. Never forget that.
