Hello everyone. I’m a twitter/X refugee who couldn’t stand any more of the place. Looking forward to meeting new friends and saying goodbye to all the racists. Welcome to my page & feel free to follow or comment for friendly interactions & kindness in a world that’s apparently gone mad. 👍

A bereaved young Palestinian man grieves the tragic loss of his sister, killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted the Mawasi area in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

The IDF just openly admitting to one war crime, while claiming the second war crime was “in error”. Lol.

NEW: Natan Eshel, close associate to PM Benjamin Netanyahu, calls for immediate halt to war in #Gaza - proposes starving the civilian population to death to hasten ethnic cleansing in order to save IDF soldiers lives:

To anyone who may stumble across my posts - I don’t do what-aboutism on the subject of ethnic cleansing or genocide. If your response begins with a “but”, changes the topic, or directs me to “look over there” instead, please don’t expect me to engage in a convo with you. I won’t.

I have hoped with all my heart for a ceasefire in Gaza but I don’t see it. It’s a genocide. Bibi has merely used the process in furtherance of it. The international community needs to impose one. It’s on us, I’m afraid.
Breaking News - Egyptian sources to Al-Araby TV:

📌 The ceasefire negotiations in Gaza are at risk of collapsing due to Israeli intransigence.
📌 Cairo and Doha are making significant efforts to prevent the negotiations on Gaza from reaching a deadlock.

How little Israel has to try in order to justify its unlawful assaults on Gaza’s hospitals: the only images published of weapons allegedly found inside Kamal Adwan, despite claiming 240 terrorists were discovered inside, 19 of whom “took part in Oct 7 attacks”.
December 28, 2024 at 5:24 PM
The IDF has published a video of its forces inside an empty Kamal Adwan hospital (prior to setting the building on fire) which includes an absurd shot of an alleged “weapons cache”, supposedly to justify the raid.

After invading and burning Kamal Adwan hospital in Jabalia, Israel arrested Dr. Hussam Abu Safia- the hospital's general director, a man who refused to leave Jabalia and insisted on staying and helping his people. What a hero, and what an awful world that we allow this to happen.

The IDF claims the fire that ravaged Kamal Adwan was purely coincidental to its 8 hour raid on the complex & the hospital itself must have spontaneously combusted.

The IDF is providing armed protection to settlers on the #Gaza border as the ethnic cleansing of the north gathers pace:

“A flyer for the event, organized by the Nachala organization said “We’ll accompany the first mobile homes to Gaza to demand the establishment of settlements in the Gaza Strip.”

I have a white son and a brown son.

I took the white one to Palestine a couple of years ago to educate him.

I cannot take my brown son for precisely this reason.

Been thinking about this a lot. There’s the obvious, usual suspects. What about the niche ones?

I might start a list.
I approve this message. Like there’s actually quite a few people I’d like to see Santa punch. If I’m honest.
