In this in-depth report, participants offer a blow-by-blow account of the events at Columbia, appraising the tactics that the demonstrators have employed and the challenges that they face.
since the white house put out a ridiculous statement condemning the protests i want to reiterate again that many of the students involved are jewish, there has always been a large jewish presence at these protests in nyc and in campus organizing for palestine
We are basically watching as Zionists go from āIsrael would stop levelling down entire buildings on top of civilians if Hamas just agrees to a hostage deal!! Why wonāt Hamas just give us the hostages?!!ā
To, well, this
In real fucking time. You couldnāt say āwe donāt give a fuck about the hostagesā any louder. And letās not even get started with the Hamas elimination part because you and I both know that is the most deranged goal and that literally no one believes it to be achievable. Absolutely everyone knows itās a ploy to excuse more mass murder with the goal of exterminating Palestinians and you have to be really very fucking stupid to believe otherwise.
In a press conference held by the Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza earlier today, they confirmed that they estimate 10,000 people remain missing under the rubble and that, with their very limited means right now, in order to be able to locate and exhume these bodies, the operation could take up to three years. Until then, these 10,000 are not counted among the casualties.
As summer approaches, the trapped bodies are going to be a major source of illnesses and epidemics are expected to spread. Already, there are 20,000 cases of hepatitis in Gaza.
All of this of course is made infinitely more difficult by Israel blocking fuel from entering while it continues to target civil defence vehicles. As a matter of fact, Rafah now has only 3 functioning fire trucks according to a Palestinian Civil Defence spokesperson.
last night my partner held a somber little passover seder to show me what itās about and when they got to the part where they were supposed to open the door for elijah they paused, frowned, and said āoh. huh. there is a clown.ā and I looked out. and sure enough. there was a clown.
Med @fairuzfan’s blog got terminated by tumblr which is obviously unjust for all the people who rely on them for resources on Palestine, but it now leaves Hussam’s helpgazachildren donation drive without a point of communication, and has deleted all previous information Med had shared about the drive.
Please remember to keep donating to helpgazachildren as Hussam’s hard work getting resources to families in Gaza should not have to be hindered while Med is working on getting their blog back 🤍🇵🇸
