Who can comprehend such evil being done but worse, WATCHED world wide? Why do we do nothing about children being killed. No matter how you feel about anything, no God will tolerate the murder of children. Israel doesn't, they have become the people who killed them. I have yet to see these "terrorist" act against Israel except two years ago. What will you say, when the horrific consequences of this murder is felt? "I didn't know, we just did your job?" May I suggest that whatever you suffered? Killing children will not heal that but turn it into a boil on the soul of everyone. I cannot walk. I walk for Gaza. I do not have money, I give to Gaza. I don't have a voice, but here, I speak for Gaza. That is the LEAST you can do. Stop ignoring the murder of children because this is what will happen if someone decides to murder your children. Nothing, no soul, nothing human left.

The absolute evil of all this.

All countries follow Spain and grow a conscience and spine!

I would love to see so many Govt ships on their way to Gaza. Israel has no Sovereignty over Palestine or rights to stop anyone.

If I ruled the world, Israel would be banned from all international competitions. I’ve never understood why Israel is part of European competitions, e.g., Eurovision, in the first place, btw.

Because the zionist occupiers, have never reconciled, being “expelled” from europe. Instead of coming to terms, with their West Asian location and embracing their neighbours, they look on them as enemies. Ashkenazi zionist Jews still regard themselves as european. After all they don't look Palestinian, do they. Thus their “eligibility" for european contests and competitions. Free free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Support the Hind Rajab Foundation

https://donate.stripe.com/cN228hbY5g7jaM84gg

On 25 August 2025, Israel struck Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis twice, killing 22 civilians — including journalists, doctors, rescue workers, and a 14-year-old child. Today, the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights filed a complaint to the International Criminal Court, exposing the full chain of command behind the massacre. Our investigation proves that the Golani Brigade engineered and coordinated the attack under continuous drone surveillance, the 188th Armored Brigade executed it with guided missiles, and senior commanders up to Prime Minister Netanyahu authorized and enabled it. This was not crossfire, but deliberate killing with genocidal intent. Justice demands accountability.

Hi Bill, It’s unlikely, I’m sure, but is there any chance you are the Bill Bigelow I once knew in Portland?

I've been living in Portland since 1977, so very likely. :) My email is bbpdx@aol.com, if that is a more direct way to connect.

Call on Pope Leo XIV to do whatever it takes to save Gaza and stop the bombing, and end the starvation. Let him go to Gaza and stand with the suffering people who are being massacred by Israel and the Western posers. He can go to Gaza right now, and insist aid be allowed in.

Is there anything more important in today's world than this?

Put a stop to GHF

There’s a campaign to have the Delaware Attorney General, Kathy Jennings, dissolve the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) which is incorporated in Delaware. The group DELPHR has launched an effort to put pressure on the Deleware Attorney general, with a letter-writing effort. You can do your part and sign on here:

national letter-writing tool which was created by the Center for Constitutional Rights.

Gaza is starving. We must do all we can to get the US to act.

The Feed Gaza Coalition has a single, clear and achievable demand:

To call on President Trump to ensure Israel immediately lifts all restrictions preventing food and medicine from entering Gaza.

Our goal is to mobilize one million calls and emails to the White House during the month of September to make this urgent action impossible to ignore.

Join the protest if you are in the UK

For those in the UK. Donald Trump is set to come to Britain for a second state visit. Trump has provided the weapons, funding and diplomatic support that has been crucial to Israel’s continuing genocide against the Palestinian people. This Wednesday 17 September we will be assembling at Portland Place from 2pm and marching to Parliament Square to tell the government he's not welcome. 

Will you join us?

Activists from 44 countries have launched the largest civilian flotilla in history at the end of August in an effort to break Israel’s siege on Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to the starving population of the enclave. 

The Global Sumud Flotilla, along with three allied initiatives, will send dozens of boats from Spanish ports on 31 August and Tunisian ports on 4 September, aiming to establish a humanitarian corridor and confront what organizers call Israel’s genocide against Palestinians.

Reports are they have already come under attack twice!

Evict Israeli weapons manufacturers, Easy Aerial and Crye Precision, from the Brooklyn Navy Yard and establish a policy of no weapons manufacturers. 

“Since September 2024, a decentralized coalition of Brooklyn Navy Yard neighbors, workers, and community members have organized under the banner Demilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The landlord in question is the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation (BNYDC), a non-profit developer charged with managing business leases at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, which is owned by the City of New York.” Story from Mondoweiss

I’ve dropped the phrase “unbelievably evil” from my vocabulary because everything Israel does is believably evil. Why isn’t the entire world in an uproar? I ask that question rhetorically because I know people who either don’t know what’s happening or don’t care. Repeating myself, but this is the worst thing I’ve ever witnessed, and I’m 82 years old.

It is disgusting and so immoral as to what the IDF under Netanyahu is doing. As an American Jew who grew up believing in the state of Israel being fair and just, but the genocide that is being imposed on innocent children, women and others who are not Hamas is probably leading to the antisemitism that trump is complaining about. Time to let the humanitarian aid in and let reporters show the truth. I can't read more of this savage war against especially the children. Flood the zone with aid. Let the 600 trucks a day in as well as the flotilla of aid.

I don't know what the Israeli public knows but I fear for the souls of the citizens who are so blinded by hatred that they support these awful policies.

The “Israeli" public has full cognizance, of the genocide and engineered starvation, of the Palestinian people in Gaza. What we are witnessing today, is a continuation of an eighty year programme, of ethnic cleansing. The zionist occupiers lost their “souls," when this white settler project began. They've served in the IOF, so are active participants, in this genocide being watched by the world, “from the sidelines." Free free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

80%-85% of Israelis reportedly support the ethnic cleansing going on in Gaza, while 65% support the genocide. They know exactly what's going on and support it. They use the Amalek sections of the bible to justify their position, as well as their so-called "chosen" status. I think some 3000 year old ideas could stand to be updated.

Israel is the biggest driver of antisemitism in the world today.

Hamas are resistance fighters responding to 77 years of occupation, subjugation, and dispossession of indigenous Palestinians by European jews - settler colonialism at its finest. The brutality of the Israeli occupation since its inception in 1948 cannot be overstated.

It would be prudent for the Sumud Flotilla to be prepared to be blown out of the water or boarded like Venezuelan ships.

They aren't blind, and I would think they are prepared. I wish for their safety and success just the same.
