Israel - Tumblr Posts
This elderly woman was one of the leaders of demonstrations against the Vietnam War in 1968, when she was a student at Columbia University. Today, 56 years later, she returns to the same place and says, "Palestine must be free."
guys i actually beg of you to not let palestine become an unpleasant flashback, a transient tumblr trend, a hasbeen subject that just faded away. as an arab—and specifically iraqi—girl, i know what it feels like to have family displaced all over the world as a result of western imperialism. i know what it feels like to not be able to step foot into your homeland because it’s no longer safe. as an american iraqi, raised in the us and insulated from my roots, it wasn’t until last summer that i was able to visit iraq for the first time, and even then my family was worried for my safety—in my own blood country. although nothing like what palestinians are experiencing right now, it might be the tiniest semblance of what it feels like to watch your country disintegrate in front of you.
and this is a universal arab experience. i volunteer weekly at a refugee center that serves middle eastern refugees, and every day i see the longing in their eyes when they speak of where they hail from. it’s safe to say that we will be getting a wave of palestinian refugees very soon: just another generation of arabs who can’t inhabit their own country.
arab culture is so rich, so profound, so beautiful. i am tired of being told by the world—through literal genocide—that it doesn’t mean anything. please never let this be forgotten. free palestine. free palestine. free palestine.
While the news is talking about Iran, Israel continues to kill innocent civilians in Gaza who are just trying to get back to their homes. But no, keep interviewing Israelis who saw a few drones get shot down about how terrifying it was for them.
Jaffa Street, Jerusalem (WIP)

Soon to be oil on canvas
A doctor from Gaza loses his son during an operation without anesthesia.
Every single line is true and on its own would be too much to handle.
All together, I just don't understand, I literally lack the capacity to understand why this has been allowed to go on for so long and why so many people are okay with it.
In the first week of December, I remember reading how Biden was going to put his foot down in January and I thought, three more weeks of this, intolerable. In my worst nightmares, I never expected it to still be happening in August.
IMPORTANT!!!!
What is happening as of now is not war, this is genocide, and we must act for those in power who will not.
If you can, please donate to the following causes, if you can't donate, please signalboost!!! Come on folks!!
From river to sea, Palestine will be free.

south africa was banned in the olympics in 1964, 1968, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 & 1992. a total of 8 times. for 28 years they didn't set foot in the olympics. you know why? apartheid. apparently the olympics disagreed with the apartheid regime in south africa. russia & belarus aren't allowed to take part in the olympics this year. you know why? because of their involvement in the war in ukraine. several countries throughout history haven't been allowed to participate in the olympics because of various reason from their involvement in war to human rights abuses. now if the olympics aren't blind to all that... why in the world are they blind to what israel has been doing to gaza for the past 10 months? why is a genocidal apartheid nation allowed to participate in the olympics when any other country in its place would've been banned?
SAVE PALESTINE!!
ALL EYES ON GAZA,RAFAH,PALESTINE!!
Now how the hell did Israel make it and not Netherlands 😭😭
A list of some names for 13,022 Palestinian children who were killed by Israel in #Gaza in just 111 days.
If this is not genocide then what!!
I think it hilarious when people both hate Israel and love Odysseus
Like, the excuse is always "they committed genocide", but Odysseus committed mass murder and they didn't even care
We did not commit genocide
