Dear Friends,
Thankyou so much for all the helpful responses to yesterday’s post. I will follow through.
Of course I’m well aware that the Palestinian people want to stay in their homeland, while trying to survive a genocidal Armageddon.
An entire population of 2 + million human beings, in the face of imminent death or wounding, are trapped between a rock and a hard place, with continuous bombing, shooting, targetting, starving, displacing, destroying, terrorising and traumatising.
While the children and grandchildren of Hitler’s evil ‘final solution’ are now issuing another version of ‘final solution’ - a more terrible tragic twist
would be hard to envisage.
fyi.. I have absolutely no ties to any political party and I abhor antisemitism.

Dear Friends,
These drawings are by 13 year old @fouad.alhrazyn . He’s a brilliantly gifted budding artist, who wants to inspire other Palestinian kids to express themselves on paper.
Like them, he hasn’t been able to go to school for almost two years and drawing is his focus and powerful means of expression.
Please take a moment to look closely at the details in his drawings.
You’ll notice things that might resemble themes from a horror film.
But of course, we know these subjects have been witnessed and experienced by his own young eyes, and every single Palestinian child.
Right now Fouad is one of tens of thousands of precious children who are trapped in Netanyahu’s ground invasion…
An insanely terrifying prospect. NO CHILD should EVER have to endure this hideous Armageddon!!!!

Dear Friends,
PALESTINIAN CHILDREN ARE BEING KILLED AT THE RATE OF ONE PER HOUR??!!!!!!!
What kind of world are we living in, where murder like this is legitimised???!!!!
Wouldn’t you think the world’s ‘leaders’ would do everything in their power to stop this GENOCIDE immediately???
And good people are being arrested and imprisoned for protesting against this??!!!!

Dear Friends…
GAZA IS BEING PURPOSEFULLY STARVED!!!!!!!!
You might have noticed that we had some issues sharing the last post..
There appears to be some changes across meta lately that mean I’m not able to reshare content in the same way I have since October 2023 - I’ll continue to share whatever I can, but please be forgiving of technical gremlins and take downs!
Meantime - I’m sharing one of @adham._.fouad drawings… It speaks VOLUMES!!!!!!!
One thing we need to focus on right NOW is a DEMAND TO OPEN THE GATES OF GAZA AND LET THE AID TRUCKS ENTER IMMEDIATELY !!!!!

Dear Friends,
I’m sharing a harrowing drawing by a Palestinian artist, who is trying to keep his family safe in Gaza.
He drew this 3 months ago, after their tent burned to the ground as a result of the bombing..
You can see a small burnt hole in the top right hand side corner - a souvenir from the fire that almost destroyed them all.
NEVER NORMALISE GENOCIDE

Dear Friends,
The situation with ‘aid’ in Gaza is calamatous…’Predators’ are stealing the supplies and then re-selling their bounty at extortionate prices..
$500 for a bag of flour..
$1,000 for a box of supplies.
EVERYONE IS STARVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soon the babies, infants,children, elderly and adults will start to die exponentially in the TENS OF THOUSANDS!!!
Keep PROTESTING - Keep SHARING - Keep BANGING POTS at 6pm!!!
THE AID BLOCKADE MUST BE OPENED!!!! #ceasefire #stopkillinggaza #genocide

Dear Friends,
I fully appreciate the sense of impotence and despair concerning Gaza and the West Bank. This is something we SHOULD ALL feel as conscious, compassionate human beings.
I’m going to try my level best to engage with more practical ways to support children women and men who are SUFFERING every single day…
Here is a petition you can sign and share with your contacts!

🔗 link in my stories

Just take a couple of minutes of your time to ‘urgently fulfil humanitarian obligations in Gaza’.
This will neither make you ‘antisemitic’ nor a Hamas supporter. It won’t make you a ‘terrorist’ and it doesn’t mean you don’t care about the hostages either! All that is gaslighting and we KNOW it!

Dear Friends,
What will it take to stop the GENOCIDE taking place in Gaza???
Will the image of this precious child, ravaged by starvation at the hands of the Israeli regime become the tipping point to sway political leaders and media towards taking immediate action? The general public has been calling this out for 20 MONTHS!!!
TENS of THOUSANDS of children have already been slaughtered.
HOW MANY MORE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN MUST DIE OF STARVATION BEFORE GOVERNMENTS TAKE ACTION????!!!

Dear Friends,
After the end of World War II, it seemed that perhaps we humans might have finally learned that ‘war’ is an unspeakable atrocity that must ALWAYS be prevented at ALL costs.
The Jewish Holocaust was an indescribable abomination.
I still find it impossible to comprehend how any ‘reasonable person’ could ever have facilitated and supported Fascism, with all its bigotry, hatred, antisemitism, racism and hideous authoritarianism. That being said…
Look at this little baby.
What does this remind you of??
WHY are we not doing EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO PREVENT THIS MAN-MADE FAMINE
IMPOSED AGAINST THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE????? !!!!

Dear Friends,
Please know that every single time I post about an atrocity that has taken place in Gaza I have a feeling of profound ‘SHAME’ for what is taking place.
It’s hard to actually ‘take in’ the level of barbarity…
Look at these precious little ones.. every one of them killed underneath the rubble of their home, along with TWENTY family members!!!!!!!
You won’t read about this in the media. You won’t see this on TV.
Those in power - the providers of the missiles, including, most likely, the bomb that killed this family…they don’t want you to protest against this. They don’t want you to bring any attention to it at ALL! It appears they have completely lost all sense of decency or moral compass…
As human beings, they are criminally bankrupt!!!

Dear Friends,
As you witness scenes like this NEVER allow it to become ‘normalised’ in your mind.
It is barbaric, inhumane and COMPLETELY indecent to herd STARVING people, (including children), DESPERATE for bags of flour into these caged traps - to be then used as ‘target practice’ for these laughing soldiers! How absolutely reprehensible!!! This is ABNORMAL !!!! This is CRIMINAL and we must NEVER LOOK AWAY!!! KEEP PROTESTING!!!
KEEP CALLING OUT THE GOVERNMENTS WHO ARE BEHIND THESE CAGED DEATH TRAPS!!!
