last chance to evacuate

as you may know, israel has begun its ground operation in rafah. they dropped leaflets last night ordering people to evacuate, and bombing in east rafah has already begun.

The border is about to become unreachable.

Rafah is trapped.

We have literal hours until no-one, all the GoFundMe's you've scrolled past, all the people desperately begging on TikTok, will be able to escape.

Give now. Give whatever you can.

I am fundraising for the Odeh family, which is only 3k away from meeting its goal.

you will not get another chance.

GIVE HERE

my heart absolutely breaks for gaza. imagine screaming for help. for someone to save you and the world ignores you for the most part. shame on anyone and everyone who supports this. where is your empathy.

When I learned about the holocaust in school I was always baffled by the fact that it went on for so long.

I was shocked that cities and countries full of people knew what was happening and so many of them did nothing.

I was devastated that so many people, so many children, were brutally killed.

And now, in the year 2024, I am sitting in my room and I am reading and I am weeping.

this is what I weep about:

A 12 year old boy who was shot by Israeli police.

A pregnant woman who was beaten and raped in front of her husband and family.

Journalists and reporters who have been targeted and murdered.

Relief workers bringing starving children food targeted and murdered.

Doctors and nurses and ambulance drivers targeted and murdered.

Multiple discoveries of mass graves.

12,300 children who have been murdered.

1.5 million innocent civilians in Rafah who are being trapped at the border and bombed in the city with no where else to go.

I am sitting here in my room,

warm and fed and safe,

and absolutely ashamed of this world.

and I weep for the people of Palestine.

and I rage at the American government for funding and supporting this genocide.

and I despair, for we are now the people I read about in the history books.
