My heart is beating so fast with sheer f.cking rage.

The did this in 2024. Same place Al Mawasi.

Its as if it is punishment for the UN Commission concluding what we all know. Genocide. Deliberate targeting of children.

I see people around me totally oblivious to the brutality and suffering that Palestinians have to suffer

Will Andy Burnham condem Israel?

I think not sadly

Same here. It makes me tremble with tears and rage at the same time, how a state like Israel can be so evil is beyond me. This type of reportage of course should be done by all media, but they won'nt.

When a population is marinated in racist hate and supremacist ideology from birth, this is the guaranteed result. The soldiers carrying out these atrocities don't see them as wrong at all--they are gleeful that they get to participate and destroy as many lives as possible. This is why the Zionist entity must be completely dismantled and its population needs to be sent to reeducation campus to (try to) reinstitute their humanity.

I simply cannot imagine how anyone - especially Americans - who are producing, paying for, sending weapons while losing their own country's freedom and healthcare - can in anyway ever justify this kind of abject, intentional cruelty. Silence is absolute complicity.

Quarantine Israel for the sake of our world in all of its dimensions. It is very sick and can not stop. Though what can we expect from a country who was born through a genocide and recreates another.

The Israeli government has descended into complete and total barbarism. The nations of the "developed" world need to take decisive action immediately to stop the massive slaughter of innocent people! All support for Israel must end!

"Behind him, children picked through the ruins of the tents, trying to salvage whatever they could from the detritus. “We have no place, no shelter, nothing. Where are we supposed to go? We have no idea. From the beginning of the war until today, the attacks have never stopped. It didn’t stop. A truce, a ceasefire—where is the ceasefire? What are they talking about? Bombing, destruction, shelling. The war is ongoing,” Yassin said."

It is impossible at this point - if you're in fact a human with a functioning conscience - to believe there is any alternate ending to this horror other than a direct confrontation with Israel. Whichever power chooses to do so - and is successful - will be viewed as enshrining global morality and courage for generations to come.

I don't make reality, I just observe it.

The Beach Where Even Watermelons Are a Threat

Israel bombed families who had already fled to the last corner of Gaza left to them. There are no safe zones—only moving targets.

An eleven year old boy carrying a watermelon was killed on a beach in Gaza. That single fact tells you everything. Not about “complexity,” not about “tragic mistakes,” but about intent. When a child with fruit in his hands becomes a target, the world’s euphemisms collapse.

The families in Al Mawasi had already been displaced again and again until the sea was the only direction left. No homes. No neighborhoods. No infrastructure. Just tents on sand dunes—heat, insects, thirst, and the hope that maybe the coastline was far enough from Israeli troops to be spared.

Israel bombed them anyway.

The UN has already said Israeli authorities have deliberately targeted Palestinian children. Twenty thousand killed in the first two years. Forty four thousand injured. And since the so called ceasefire, at least one child killed every day. A ceasefire that produces a dead child every day is not a ceasefire. It is a continuation of policy under a quieter name.

Look at the pattern: water pipelines destroyed, sewage systems shattered, desalination plants targeted. Ninety percent of Gaza’s water infrastructure gone. Families dig wells with their hands. They grow eggplants beside tents. They ration water between drinking and washing. They try to keep their children alive in conditions engineered to make that impossible.

And then the missiles come.

The Yassin family fled a five story home, then fled again, then again, until all that remained was a tent on a beach. They were bombed there too. “There is nothing,” Rana Yassin says, sitting on the rubble of the only shelter they had left. She is not exaggerating. Everything that makes life possible has been systematically stripped away.

This is not a war between armies. It is a war on the conditions of life itself.

The beach tents, the makeshift wells, the children with watermelons—none of these are threats. They are reminders that Palestinians are still alive, and therefore still subject to the machinery designed to erase them.

The world has run out of excuses. What happened on that beach is not complicated. It is the destruction of a people’s ability to live, carried out in plain sight.

Your AIPAC owned US politicians looking the other way are responsible for this nightmare.

“May God ease our suffering.” The world of people will not.

Everyone please go to trackaipac.com and get on their list. Israel's govt can only get away with this because US politicians give them cover. The Israel lobby is not omnipotent and we can win safety for Palestinian people if we get involved.

Repeating myself, I cannot hate Israel enough.

And I don’t understand why Gaza wasn’t included in the MoU.

When will the international community wake the 🤬 up and stop this BS?!?!?!

It’s time to put international troops on the ground at the yellow line and dare the 🤬 Zionists to drop anymore bombs or shoot anyone. And if they do, then Israel needs to be blown off the planet!! Why is this allowed by the European and surrounding countries, does H!tler not ring a bell?!?!
