Stopping the Flotilla, for now, does not stop the work of peace, the struggle for justice, the humanitarian surge which is coming from the people of the world. It does not stop the hope or the love for the life of the Palestinian People that can overcome the worst of human crimes. It does not stop.

Guilt
Genocide: “I don’t like the G word” “That’s just your opinion” Because to admit to the impunity and collusion and arming and profiteering will indeed bring Court hearings aplenty, in time. Guilty. The G word that will bring justice.

We believe #gazagenocide
We are hell bent
We Believe We believe every single provably preposterous lie the wicked concoct. We will not ask to fact check We will not do due diligence. We are hell bent on ensuring the genocide rages on. We know how to camouflage and humanitarianise. And surge urge our "deep concern." We remain steadfast in our loyalty to the allied goals of The Wicked Afterall, they justify our arms trade with their live-streamed weapons testing on children.

IF YOU HAVE POWER USE IT
IF YOU HAVE POWER, USE IT. l use my power to write to my Member of Parliament. My Member of Parliament, who has power, tables 3 questions of the Foreign Secretary. I write to her because I still can, for now. I write because it's my job as a human. I write because I need to find words for what is impossible to describe. "I find the situation impossible to describe." She writes back.. The mass, deliberate starvation. The genocide. The war crime. This crime against humanity your humanity and mine. It has to be described for there to be justice. It has to be described. So I write of flour and the blood of children.

Genocide

#gazagenocide #genocide
Genocide "Do not call it genocide" Say The Wicked "It's not genocide Genocide is not happening Do not protest genocide Do not use red paint Do not think it is genocide It is not genocide We have proscribed Palestine Action They thought it was genocide. We know better. If it is genocide we have obligations Like stopping Cyprus flights And arms.. Introducing sanctions. Real ones. If it is genocide the International Court of Justice would have made a provisional order in January 2024." Which it did.
