Dear Friends,
As each day passes, the devastation continues unabated.
We must be vigilant towards ever becoming accustomed to seeing the destruction of their lives in any way near ‘normal’.
This is NOT NORMAL!!!
Palestinian people are a proud-dignified, industrious people.
That their lives have been reduced to rubble and untold suffering is NOT the sum total of their identity or existance!
Palestinian children have a RIGHT to live peaceful, secure lives.. To eat, sleep, play, to go to school - and to be safe, happy and free!
They have been constantly punished and traumatised each and every day and night.
They have ALL seen, heard and experienced things that NO CHILD should EVER have to endure.. We have a duty to stand up for them. A duty to advocate on their behalf. Please share this clip with friends, family and colleagues. Stand up for the children of Palestine and NEVER become complacent!!

Dear Friends,
As opposed to David Lammy’s claim that there are no journalists in Gaza…please watch this clip and feel free to follow every one of them!
They manage to show the world what is actually taking place in the ground each and every day, while many of their fellow journalists have been deliberately targeted.. wounded or killed!
They are IMMENSELY brave and profoundly dedicated to their work.. no matter what the circumstances!

Dear Friends,
I’m sorry… Please understand that this is NOT something I’d EVER want to share..
But it NEEDS to be seen - witnessed and fully understood!
I’m sure many of you are parents, or you have young family members or friends who have young children. World leaders, decision makers, the collusion of the weapon makers, arms traders and military personnel who are responsible for wounding and killing young children are fathers and mothers too.
I challenge them all to witness the results of their decisions and wonder whether they’ve totally lost their humanity - their moral compass - their MINDS!!!!????

Dear Friends,
While genocide continues in Gaza, Thanksgiving gets underway in the United States…
What are YOU grateful for???
I am grateful for this gathering of almost 1,000 pro - Palestinian activists, who. blockaded the UK’s Foreign Office and London’s Department of Business and Trade today, marking the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People…
That we continue to witness, protest and call for and END to this appalling destruction, where the majority of victims are WOMEN and CHILDREN should be reason for the whole world to be crying out in SHAME!!!!

Dear Friends,
Gaza is literally every kind of hell on earth!!!!
These are the conditions people and their families are forced to try to exist and survive in. SHAME on the entire world for facilitating this Armageddon.

Dear Friends,
The horror continues.
Winter has set in.
People are starving.
Their flimsy make-shift tents offer no shelter from the freezing cold.. the wind, rain and sand. It is a version of brutality no human being should EVER have to endure.
All the while, Palestinians are being forced from place to place.. North to South. Like hunted animals in a viscous game of life or death, trying to dodge bullets and bombs.
I am utterly ashamed and repulsed by the endless barbarity imposed upon these traumatised people for over an entire year. And STILL no hostages released.
It’s apparent we’re NEVER a priority. Such a hideous man made tragedy of inestimable proportions.

Dear Friends,
The ICC has issued an official arrest warrant for war crimes committed by Israeli President Netanyahu. It’s time for world leaders to take a stand..
If he sets foot in the country they represent, he must be arrested and tried.
Add your name to demand justice for the Palestinian people!

Dear Friends,
The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant!!!
The UN special rapporteur on occupied Palestine, Francesca Albanese says that the prosecutor of The Hague - based court was already late in applying for warrants in May this year!
That means FIVE MONTHS have gone by by in which thousands of Palestinian men women and children ( 70 per cent women and children) have been wounded, killed, displaced, tortured, starved and denied life saving Aid. Imagine how many lives could have been saved in that time frame??!!!!
She adds that she feels there should be more than ‘two’ people in the dock and that the ‘political pressure’ put upon the international justice system has been extreme.
We may feel this has nothing to do with us at our own peril.
International Human Rights are supposed to be maintained for EVERYONE.
Your hard won human rights can be removed without you even realising it!

Dear Friends,
I’m sending a message from @wizard_bisan1 … Please share if it’s the one thing that you do today in allyship with ‘humanity’…
After hundreds of days of bombing, shooting, destruction, torture, burning, starvation, terror, ethnic cleansing…
You all know the endless horror show that has become ‘normalised.’
As Bisan says…a ‘new’ kind of evil has been invented.
Stand with fundamental human rights dear friends. We can do better surely…
LEADERS??????? MEDIA???????

Dear Friends,
Gender - based violence is a ‘global’ phenomenon.
The statistics are horrendous. Violence against women is not inevitable and there are #NoExcuses.
Change must start now and we can all be involved.
Justice for women who experience sexual and gender-based violence is vital both for healing AND to prevent more violence. Survivors must be believed and supported to pursue redress.
THE CIRCLE (@thecirclengo) stands in solidarity and action with all our grassroots partners who are working to eradicate violence against women and to provide life-saving services, including @sikhwomensaid in the UK, AWER in Kenya and Nonceba in South Africa.

Dear Friends
Many of you feel deeply distressed and despairing in terms of the relentless bombardment taking place in Gaza.
So here’s an opportunity to take some constructive action…

This Wednesday, November 20, the U.S. Senate is expected to vote on legislation that can uphold U.S. law and save lives in Gaza and Lebanon NOW.

The U.S. Senate will vote to block $20 billion in military aid to Israel, including weapons that have been used in strikes that have killed thousands of civilians.

Halting these offensive weapons follows our laws, and is the only path to a ceasefire, hostage return, and a just and lasting peace in Palestine, Lebanon, Israel, and across the region.

Find your Senator and tell them no more weapons to Israel: noweaponsforwar.org
