Damn I'm just now seeing your comment and I just stated the same about 10 minutes ago this is not a war don't address this as a war. A war is when two ends are fighting one another. There's only one in fighting this is a genocide straight up and all because they want their land. 💔😢💯😡
Israel acts with total impunity because the U.S. bankrolls, arms, and protects it. Millions of Americans still don’t see Palestinians as fully human. Not as sons with birthdays. Not as daughters with dreams. Just “collateral” in a war they barely question. Decades of propaganda have done their job, Palestinians are shown as threats. But if they truly saw, if they let in even a fraction of the pain, something would break inside them. Because no one with a soul can watch a toddler die of starvation and still call this defense.
Exactly that's why I say this is not a war a war is when two ends are fighting one another there's only one in fighting this is a genocide to take over their property and ground.. they've been wanting Gaza for a long time. Israel will never ever be looked at the same by the 🌎 now that the truth have came out that they are BARBARIC, also committing, without care for who knows my belief and take on it is they have a animalistic thought process!!🙄
You’re right, calling this a war hides the truth. This is siege, starvation, displacement. And it’s been engineered that way for years. The world is finally seeing what Palestinians have always known.
Of course, Rena, please feel free to repost it. I’m glad it resonated with you. The more we name things truthfully, the harder it becomes to look away.
Shaun, what can we do to help these people when they won’t let the aid in? I want to do more than share these stories and call my representatives. We need a national strike.
This is so horrifying and unimaginable. I can't even imagine how it would feel to watch my children starve knowing that food is so close by. I can't comprehend waiting to books to drop and kill or maim me or my children at any moment. Fuck the US for funding this genocide and murdering children. There is NO REASON for this horror to be happening. If Israel is supposed to be a "holy land" how could its inhabitants kill innocent humans like this? #FEEDGAZA #STOPTHEGENOCIDE
Thank you Sherene. I'm going to look at each item on the list and decide what I can do more - and share that with others. I think it's easy to think I'm doing these things, but we need a more focused approach to actually drive change. America is fueling the Gaza war with our aid to Israel. That's the truth and we need to stop it from continuing.
Thank you, Susan. Your response really means a lot to me, to know that others are reflecting deeply and choosing to do more. Americans can do more — because their government makes this possible.
They fund the bombs, protect the impunity, shape the global story.
They have power we don’t — to vote, protest, withhold support.
Death will probably come as a friend to this poor, poor broken child who has lost his whole family and is now alone in the world. It alone will relieve his unbearable physical and mental pain and suffering.
I am no longer able to express my utter outrage at what Israel is doing. This child is six years old, the same age as my grandson. I am appalled and outraged at what the USA, the UK and the EU countries are doing in the name of "support" and collaboration with the apartheid terror state. They might as well have thrown in their lot with the Nazis in the 1930's and 1940's. I am truly ashamed to be British.
No words, the suffering of this child and all Palestinians must end right now. We must see and respond to their excruciating suffering.
Thank you Sherene Alkaff for your list on what Americans can do. I heard you, especially on # 5 “stay uncomfortable”. I watched this video last night and I really sat with that for a while. And I thought that all the steps #1-5 you mentioned should keep us at staying uncomfortable or it’s not having impact.
Why are these videos for subscribers only? Is there location data that would endanger the reporters? Putting the babies’ faces out there to re-humanize this might help, no? Like the country only tipped away from the Vietnam War when people saw the reality on TV?
I don't even have anything smart to say, to be honest.

Allah ﷻ says in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:154):
> "And do not say about those who are killed in the way of Allah, ‘They are dead.’ Rather, they are alive, but you perceive it not."
(Qur’an 2:154)
And again in Surah Aal-‘Imran (3:169):
> "Do not think of those who have been killed in the way of Allah as dead. No, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision."
(Qur’an 3:169)

May I repost what you just said? It’s perfect. Thank you.

Stunned and speechless but ready for a national strike
I am speechless.
Thank you. We must never stop talking about Gaza and the genocidal apartheid Zionist regimes atrocities.

**for bombs to drop
Thank you for showing the truth. So much suffering, horrendous. How can we stop this?
What can Americans do?
A lot. More than they think.
1. Hold your leaders accountable.
Stop voting for silence. Demand an end to funding war crimes or vote them out.
2. Speak up loudly.
Online, offline, everywhere. Your silence protects no one but the oppressors.
3. Challenge the narrative.
Expose media bias. Share what they won’t. Center Palestinian voices.
4. Follow the money.
Boycott companies profiting from genocide. Push for divestment.
5. Stay uncomfortable.
Refuse to look away. Sit with the horror until it compels action.
And I appreciate that you end with "Stay uncomfortable. Refuse to look away. Sit with the horror until it compels action." - Yes!
Refusing to look away and powerless despite the list of things Americans can do.

They fund the bombs, protect the impunity, shape the global story.
They have power we don’t — to vote, protest, withhold support.
If they speak up, things can shift.
If they stay silent, the killing goes on.
This evil is unfathomable. To think otherwise is psychotic.
Personal Care people please stop addressing this as a war it's not !!
Oh dear God, I can’t bear to see this suffering, I feel so helpless, so sad for these babies
Heartbreaking …

Suad.
Fathi.
Mona.
Mohammed.
All I know how to do right now is pray fervently with tears in my eyes and primal rage in my heart for this sweet boy.

They aren’t. I’ve made them all free. Which one said that? If so, it’s an error
This is really sad, somebody needs to be punished for this
