If you see a Palestinian today, give them a hug. You have no idea how the emotions inside us are tumbling around and around, heart feels like it's about to explode into a thousand pieces.

They are talking of a ceasefire that is almost two years too late. It could've happened from day one if the world and sensible people acted. Instead, we have over 65K people killed in Gaza, which has been reduced to rubble. Still, we accept to save our existance which is the main offence to some

The sumud flotilla activists are being kidnapped right now, not intercepted. They're being taken as hostages by a terrorist organisation. We should all demand the release of hostages from Israel

a Trump-Netanyahu plan that no Palestinian was invited to discuss. Still, we have to accept it because everyone has let us down & they've made mockery of international law. They say: accept it or tolerate more genocide. It's sugar-coating his "Rivera" plans. You should be upset more than us.

Netanyahu has asked his murderous army to broadcast his UN speech today all over Gaza using speakers carried on trucks. The psycho knows no limit for torture. One day this will be taught in history books about the damaged white supremacy narcissism

The neocolonialists have no shame of their colonalism anymore, they don't even try to hide it. I don't know if he will last in Gaza, he won't be able to cope with our spicy food and there are no baked beans there

I would like this to go on the record now please. In a few years/decades when this is all over don't accuse Palestinians of leaving their homes in Gaza. Or there was a "war" and Israel won. This is a genocide and ethnic cleansing, just like what happened in 1948. Remember my words and teach them on

I can't begin to describe to you the suffering my family in Gaza is going through right now and I am a writer. Words fail me completely, there's no description. I just gasp and hope that you don't forget my words. Keep thinking of this post even when you forget us.

A simple way of countering the far right protests in London yesterday is to make the next palestine protest even bigger. A million or two on the street. Don't just be frustrated about racism in the UK and stay home, doing nothing. This is how fascism starts.

I don't think people realise what is happening right now in Gaza, despite our constant talking, shouting, sharing, speaking, writing, crying. Let's try again, there's a Genocide taking place right now and you are all seeing it. Israel is now invading Gaza City, 1.2 million being killed and starved

Israel continues to deliberately kills journalists, today they bombed the house of journalist Islam Abed and killed her with her family there. Israel wants to kill the truth

Rafah was a red line before, they kept discussing it on the news to allow Israel to continue to bomb and kill more. They give them the media cover they need. They are doing the same with Gaza City now. Last night, residents described the situation as if 10 earthquakes had hit the City.

Do you know what it feels like to have your family starving? Well, I actually wish you never know. It's that crushing feeling that makes everything in life tasteless. It sucks the joy out of you in everything you do, even having a sip of water comes with a feeling of powerlessness. Fuck you Israel.

BBC has just read out the statement of the Israeli army from last year, when they killed Ismael El Ghoul because the murderous Israeli forces refused to comment on th Killing of Anas El Sharif and his colleagues.
This is why Israel gets away with genocide.

Headline: "Germany halts exports to Israel of arms that could be used in Gaza"
Me: what about the ones used in the West Bank, Lebanon, Yemen and Iran?
How are you going to ensure Israel isn't going to alternate weapons and locations?
And why the fuck have you waited so long!!

The BBC and Western media are debating the Israeli intention of "occuyping Gaza", the same way they debated the bombing of Al Ahli hospital in Dec 23 which killed 500 people, the same way they debated the destruction of El Shifa Hospital. This debate is a cover for genocide. BBC knows this

This idea that Trump gave the green light for Israel to occupy Gaza is a cover for more killing. Israel has been fully occupying Gaza since 1967, controlling everything in it, airspace, borders, food, water, ID cards, everything. This is a green light to kill more. They want us all dead

Keep doing whatever you are doing, the pressure is mounting and it will work. Don't take your foot off the paddle. Keep talking, keep sharing, keep shouting, continue to be angry. We will prevail together and Palestine will be free forever

One of my favourite books of all times is Alone in Berlin. Apart from brilliant writing, it is about resistance. It shows how one small voice can disturb an entire institution, government, media & propaganda. This is why we should all resist the Israeli genocide by all means we have, including this

All reports say that people in Gaza have 1 or 2 weeks before they enter the final stage of irreversible starvation. Here is my brother Tareq in his tent in Gaza City now. Look how much weight he lost. He hasn't eaten for days now. This is a war crime and the world should be responsible. Fuck Israel.
