"I want to return to our home and have my mom, my dad, and my leg with me.”
That is Rateb, a child amputee in Gaza. His heartbreaking resilience indicts a world that forces children to fashion their own limbs from sewage pipes. The world has betrayed his childhood. 3/3

This is beyond war; this is the SYSTEMATIC, GENERATION-DEFINING MAIMING OF A POPULATION. The world must prosecute the architects of this intentional genocide. 2/3

70,000+ killed. 170,000+ wounded. The scale of permanent devastation is a deliberate strategy. Gaza now has the highest number of CHILD AMPUTEES per capita in the world--tens of thousands of children disabled by bombs and blast injuries... 1/3

This isn't just punishment; it's a systematic escalation of collective #cruelty. Restrictions on food, water, medical care, and forced overcrowding orchestrated under Minister Ben-Gvir are deliberate acts of #torture. The world must not let the IOF turn prisons into sites of state-sanctioned abuse.

Perfect way to start the morning! 🗳️ That's how we beat the $22 million poured in by the billionaires--one ballot at a time. So proud to see our community show up for the future #ZohranMamdani is building. Let's GO!

Rest in Power, brother.
Born September 23, 1979, Dr. Refaat Alareer was murdered by an Israeli airstrike in northern Gaza on December 6, 2023. The attack wiped out an entire branch of his family: his brother, sister, and four nephews were killed alongside him. Seven lives taken in one calculated strike.
