Taken in the late 80’s, just after Perestroika had taken place. Standing in Moscow’s Red Square with the Edge from U2, to promote the opening of the first Greenpeace office in Russia… Long surreal story!

Dear Friends,
After two years of witnessing the abject horror of violence being carried out on an industrial scale, I can’t help but wonder what it means in terms of how it affects everyone. Not only the victims of violence.. but the perpetrators..
When you hurt others by pulling the trigger of a gun, or pressing the button to drop the bomb… surely it must leave some kind of indelible mark upon your very soul? And then we see the more ‘casual’ face to face kicking, beating and punching..
Does that make the abuser feel ‘good’ afterwards?
There’s something psychotic that is unleashed when people are given ‘permission’ or ‘command’ to hurt others.
I cannot comprehend it.
The WORST impulse of all humanity.

Dear Friends,
THIS is RIGHTEOUS anger!
What is taking place in Gaza is NOT a war… It is a GENOCIDE…
Not only against adults, but upon CHILDREN!!!
Soldiers and grown men in suits have been BOMBING - TARGETING - MUTILATING - BURNING - TORTURING and DELIBERATELY STARVING CHILDREN!!!
Babies and children cannot retaliate. THEY cannot fight back.. It’s a long line from the one who pulls the trigger.. the one who gives the order to drop the bomb to blast a hospital - a school - a shelter.. to the ones who manufacture the weapons.
And they ALL KNOW their part in it. IT IS NOT A WAR!!!!

Dear Friends,
I believe every human being has inherent value and is deserving of respect, decency and fundamental human rights. Scanning the news each day inevitably displays the worst behaviours of cruelty, brutality and violence, whether by word or action. The genocide taking place in Gaza is a dystopian form of organised violence of epic proportions. I condemn all racist attacks.. All antisemitic attacks and all anti Islamic attacks.
And it MUST be said that PEACE ACTIVISTS are NOT TERRORISTS!!!
We ALL KNOW the distinction and KNOW when we are being gas-lit!!!

Dear Friends,
Imagine barricading yourself into your apartment, with bomb blasts and the sounds of gunshot pops getting closer and closer. Gaza city is being invaded on the ground, while those who stayed are being forced to hide, knowing that they have a very high chance of being killed.
This post was sent 13 hours ago, and I don’t know whether the journalist Ibrahim has managed to survive. Such appalling circumstances.. worse than any horror story, yet in real life on a massive scale.
THIS is our world today.
While the peace activists on the Sumud Flotilla have been arrested and kidnapped.
No words left…

Dear Friends,
Babies and children being shot in the head…
What???!!!
Let me repeat -
Babies and children being shot in the head.
And yet they have the audacity to stand before the entire world, as if they are ‘in charge’ as if they have the ‘authority’ - as if these acts aren’t SICK - BARBAROUS and MONSTROUS!!!!
SHAME ON THE SUPPORTERS OF GENOCIDE!!!
SHAME ON THE CONTRIBUTORS OF GENOCIDE!!

Dear Friends,

Let’s finish the job..
Let’s get it done..
Get over it
We’ve had our fun
A few more bombs
We’re overstocked
We’re almost there
Just clean it up…
Finish the job
Clean up the mess
Brush off the dust
We do things best!
Let’s go back home
Put up our feet
Take off those vests
The job’s complete
And once we’re home
We’ll get some rest
From blood and
Bones
The smell of death
The flies
The corpses
Nothing’s left..
And we’ll forget
And we’ll forget
Our children’s eyes
I love you son
We got the prize
Did nothing wrong
Now we’ll forget
Did nothing wrong
Our children’s eyes
Did nothing wrong
Finished the job
Like we were told
Those children’s eyes
Did nothing wrong.

Dear Friends,
To-day I’m sharing this inspirational message all the way from Guadeloupe, as a reminder of the qualities we all can carry in our hearts.
We are led and deceived by a cohort of power-crazed madmen in a world gone rogue.
Let’s NEVER FORGET core principles of peace - compassion, love and goodness are the fundamental tenets of humanity we can all aspire to, in order to create ‘heaven’ rather than ‘hell’ on Earth.
In a world where CHILDREN are being bombed, burned, targeted, starved, orphaned and displaced without mercy.

Dear Friends
I urge you not to normalise or abandon the Palestinian people, who are barely surviving in Gaza.. as well as the exemplary medical staff who heroically try to save lives in the most unimaginable circumstances! This is a test of all decency - human values and ethical / moral compass.

Dear Friends,
As each day passes… the GENOCIDE in Gaza continues RELENTLESSLY!!
It has NOT conveniently gone away.. The situation is becoming worse and worse. Those who are somehow managing to stay are being eradicated. THAT was the stated intention and they mean it! All red lines have been crossed with impunity. THIS is the reality of the dystopian world we live in today.@ali.gazandoctor

THIS young woman!
THIS BRAVE and BRILLIANT young woman…
NEVER AFRAID to speak up and ACT.
SHE is the voice of our CONSCIENCE!!
If only ONE of these so called leaders had ONE OUNCE of her consistent humanity, perhaps the world would be a better place.
