okay so for the "tips for younger therians" post

what if i did like a mix of tips and correcting some things i see that they get wrong??

Motaz posted a 22 minute video and here’s the takeaways:

- north Gaza is being heavily bombed. There are estimates say one person is killed every five (5) minutes.

- new massacre in jabalia, many killed with no media coverage (2 journalists were injured this morning.)

- no connection or food in the north, no food, only aid since the last pause

- Motaz has not showered for six days and others haven’t showered for weeks

- in two days, one Israeli drone came to Motaz’s home (and other houses) and it was able to kill and shoot

- there’s no food

- “you are waiting to die. This is what Gazans still alive now do. You are waiting to be killed,”

- everyday it gets worse

- aid does enter Gaza, but it is not enough. Israel won’t let a large amount enter.

- “you can’t help us, I’m sorry you can’t help us, you can’t do anything”

- he denied an interview from CNN since he does not want to be judged by people.

- “if you are human, you will share the videos, but don’t tell us you did something for us.”

- he works for UNRWAUSA, and those are the only people he trusts.

- people have been blaming him for not “doing enough/sharing enough”

- one thing in Arabic he says is “The death of Palestinians is easier than drinking water.”
