Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya was abducted by the IDF after refusing to abandon Kamal Adwan Hospital. He walked across the rubble to a tank and shook a genocidal soldier’s hand, before being taken to prison where he is tortured and denied medical treatment as a political prisoner. For being a doctor 💔🇵🇸

Over 400 people, including children, have been killed since the so-called ceasefire in Gaza.
Saying that they are only killing terrorists during a ceasefire is a tacit admission that they were intentionally targeting innocent civilians before the attacks were supposed to have stopped.

<p>Police forcibly dispersed festivities held by Palestinian Christian citizens of Israel in the Wadi Nisnas neighbourhood on Sunday and confiscated equipment from the event. </p>
<p>According to the Mossawa Centre, an organisation advocating for the rights of Palestinian citizens of Israel, police used excessive force while detaining the man dressed as Santa Claus, as well as a DJ and a street vendor.</p>
<p>All three were released on Monday but were expected to be summoned to court again.</p>
<p>Mossawa said police also raided a music institute without legal authorisation.</p>

There's an irony in freedom, 'cause us in the West
We have pillaged and plundered and murdered like savages
Colonized all of the rest, that's called hypocrisy

Zoe Weissman came to Brown University from Parkland, Florida, where she was a student during the mass shooting that occurred there in 2018.
“My most predominant emotion right now is, honestly, anger," Weissman says after living through her second school shooting.

“Intentionally killing innocent people is always wrong”… this is the only correct response to a deadly terrorist attack.
