Infographic| Israel is committing widespread war crimes against Palestinian civilians in the #Gaza Strip amidst four consecutive days of its escalating war

Truly disgusted by many people in the writing and publishing community.

people saying, “I’m silent bc I’m not an expert on this & am choosing to educate myself !” but you don’t need to be an expert to stand with Palestine against genocide, and 2 seconds of research will unequivocally tell you that.

I'm not looking to convince you. If 75+ years of educating, organising, marching, boycotting, lobbying hasn't... What can I possibly say tht we haven't already said? How will the brutalisation of our bodies today be any different to last wk, the wk before, last yr, last decades?

Act normal when children are being murdered in Gaza, and be sensitive while sharing their photos and videos

theres no forgiving how the world made Palestinians hold their dead to the camera. so their loss wasnt disbelieved. though it was still dismissed. how they had to plea that they love, bring & teach life. show us their pets so their humanity wasnt questioned? no forgiveness. none

Sorry America, your government couldn’t give you free healthcare they have to give $14.5 billion to israel to kill innocent children in Gaza.
