The children of Gaza are not collateral damage. They are as deserving as children everywhere of security, education and hope.

If we do nothing while people are fired, we will all end up silenced.

Fired for standing in solidarity with Palestine, CEO's son in the IDF!
I am Hisham, a family man. I am originally from Egypt with friends in Palestine (not that I needed to have any to advocate for Humanity). I am also a Muslim.

This is unbearable.
A yr ago, I met Wissam, a child refugee with complex disabilities living in a rubbish dump in Calais. His Syrian family were trying to reach UK specialists.
There are no longer any safe routes for children like him.
A few days ago, he died after crossing the channel.
