I've Shared Their Fundraiser Before, But I Want To Bring Special Attention Today To Mohammed Al Manasra

i've shared their fundraiser before, but i want to bring special attention today to Mohammed Al Manasra (@save-mohamed-family) and his family, as donations have continued to be very slow.

after spending months raising money to cover the evacuation fees for himself, his wife, and their three little children, Mohammed's gofundme was shut down and all the funds (amounting to about $35,000) he had worked so hard to collect were lost. the family has had to restart their campaign entirely from scratch.

Mohammed and his family were displaced after a devastating airstrike that took the lives of Mohammed's parents and four of his sisters, along with their spouses and children. he has been left as one of the few survivors of his family.

to compound the urgency of their situation, both Mohammed and his wife need vital medical treatment. Mohammed cannot get the medications he needs to treat his chronic respiratory problems, and is suffering from a severe leg injury that will lead to amputation if untreated much longer. his wife has uterine cancer and has not received chemotherapy or any other treatment for ten months.

meanwhile, their three children (ages six, four, and three) suffer from malnutrition, insect bites, and skin rashes from polluted water and the stifling heat of the tent. every day, diseases like hepatitis, cholera, and polio are spreading, threatening especially the fragile health of young children like Abdulrahman, Sarah, and Lina.

the minimum amount the family needs to evacuate to safety is $18,000 CAD, but more funds are needed to secure housing, treatment for Mohammed and his wife, and to rebuild the family's livelihood, bringing the final goal to $50,000 CAD. so far, they have only raised $2,085, and have received barely three donations today.

please support this fundraiser in any capacity you can to help the Al Manasra family reach a safe place and give their children the bright and happy future they deserve!

(Mohammed's campaign is #192 on @/el-shab-hussein and @/nabulsi's spreadsheet)

Siraj still finds the time to give us these updates in active war zone, walks however far he needs to upload them for good internet, and faces hate from zionist trying to take down his updates.

Please try to help Siraj rebulid his families house. He wishes to reach by the end of this week. and we are only 1,502 CAD away. If roughly 300 people donate just 5 CAD (which is just 3.60 USD) we would reach his goal.

Farewell to fellow journalists

Yesterday, we bid farewell to fellow journalist Ismail Al-Ghoul and Rami Al-Rifi in a painful scene, and this video shows the extent of the deliberate brutality in targeting them, as Ismail’s head was separated from his body.

This picture is from the farewell of the martyrs

This photo is of Zeina, the child of journalist Ismail al-Ghoul, who has not seen her father since the beginning of the war

This is the tax of journalistic work, as to date 157 journalists have been martyred and the occupation has arrested dozens, in addition to bombing most newspaper offices and companies.

Despite all that pain, we are still suffering and putting all our effort into rebuilding our homelands and building our homes.Thus, I invite you to help rebuild my house, which was bombed with all barbarism and brutality by the Israeli occupation.

Here's your daily reminder to click for Palestine!!!

U.S. residents, take 5 minutes and use this link to pressure your members of Congress to stop sending weapons to the Israeli military!!

(Letter variants you can copy/paste under the cut!!)

Original letter written by Jewish Voice for Peace:

I am writing as your constituent to ask that you do everything in your power to press the Biden administration to suspend all weapons shipments to the Israeli military, and oppose all future military funding to Israel. The Israeli government has vowed to push forward with a large-scale military operation in Rafah, even though President Biden has repeatedly said such an operation would be a "red line." On May 7, the Israeli military seized the Rafah border crossing, a crucial passage for humanitarian aid, and ordered 100,000 Palestinians in eastern Rafah to evacuate. The 1.3 million displaced Palestinians sheltering in Rafah will have nowhere to flee should a full invasion commence. Millions of Palestinian lives now hang in the balance. I urge you to do everything in your power to stop this unfolding catastrophe before it's too late. Thank you.

Slight variations I created (so that emails don't get marked as spam for being identical to each other)

Variation 1:

I'm writing to you today as your constituent to ask you to do everything you can to pressure the Biden administration into suspending all weapons shipments to the Israeli military and opposing any and all future military funding to Israel! The Israeli government is pushing forward with a large-scale military operation in Rafah. President Biden has repeatedly said such an operation would be a "red line," yet his administration is still supporting this operation. On May 7th, the Israeli military seized the Rafah border crossing, a crucial passage for humanitarian aid, and forced 100,000 Palestinians in eastern Rafah to abandon their homes. 1.3 million Palestinians have been displaced. Those sheltering in Rafah have nowhere to flee during a full invasion. Millions of Palestinian lives now hang in the balance. Their fate lies in the hands on Congress, in your hands. I urge you to do everything in your power to stop this unfolding catastrophe before it's too late. Thank you.

Variation 2:

I'm writing you today to ask that you do everything in your power to convince the Biden administration to stop funding Israel. We have to telk them to stop all shipments of weapons to the Israeli military and oppose all future military funding to Israel. The Israeli government has vowed to push forward with a large-scale military operation in Rafah... President Biden made it clear that such an operation would be a "red line," and yet he continues to fund them. On May 7th, the Israeli military seized the Rafah border crossing, a crucial passage for humanitarian aid, and forced 100,000 Palestinians to flee their own home of Eastern Rafah. Should a full invasion commence, 1.3 million displaced Palestinians sheltering in Rafah will have nowhere safe to go. Millions of Palestinian lives now hang in the balance. I am begging you now, as your constituent, to do everything in your power to stop this unfolding catastrophe before it's too late.... Thank you.
