Thinking of those souls who weren’t as fortunate, the ones who spent the day in hardships, without loved ones, without the abundance of food and joy that Eid should be about. A heartfelt prayer that may they be blessed with all that’s good for them. Ameen!

Israel has blocked aid into Gaza as Ramadan begins.
It’s ‘a reckless act of collective punishment, explicitly prohibited under international humanitarian law…
Humanitarian aid is not a bargaining chip for applying pressure on parties.’

NO U.S. government funding was used to procure or distribute condoms.
Gaza has been at the brink of famine (which most likely took place), was being given life-saving supplies.
