I don’t know where it will come from, Qasim. I have been involved in the Middle East for decades and have never seen any real accountability. The only hope right now is that the Israeli people have some epiphany. I am not optimistic.
TThis brings tears to my eyes, because I know without a doubt, it could happen here. Absolute power is a horrific thing.
It terrifies me, but I would rather be dead on my late life than humble myself before another human who doesn’t even deserve my spit. I’m going to die anyway, and truly, I’m not afraid of death. Some things are worse than death. Believe it! Tried to add more to this post. Bibi is an anti-Muslim pos. The US just gave more aid to Bibi to bond Iran. It seems people aren’t looking at the situation, only their emotions.
I remember the ‘94 attack. I was young, but it played out in the background. It might be one of the first times I decided to dig deeper and learn more about what was going on in Palestine.
Qasim, if an opportunity to speak to Biden, or Harris, ever comes your way, please make sure they clearly understand what they have done to entirely innocent Palestinians, and to Pakistani-born Americans. By the time Netanyahu gets finished, there might not be any more of the former left.
I've tried to reason with you that this is not a religious war, and Jews and Muslims (and Christians and non-believers) are united in ending this genocide. But you insist on hatred of Jewish people themselves. Your hatred of Jewish people isn't welcome here. Take your hate elsewhere.
No this isn’t it. Not even close. Don’t come blaming Jewish people on my page. Condemn the injustice, not Jewish people. Moreover, Many of our Jewish neighbors are at the forefront of condemning and working to end these injustices. We need unity against injustice, not demonization of Jewish people.
No place should exist where some are exalted while "others" live in abject fear. No place should exist where some walk freely while "others" are commanded by heavily armed soldiers, "Let me see your papers--or else!" No place should exist that has soldiers armed to the teeth to let some know they are safe and "others" know they are not. I say all of this as my heart aches to know my words will fall on deaf ears for those who need to hear this the most. 😞
Qasim, please see this:

Every accusation they make is a projection. Where is the accountability for this?

Thank you for your compassion. We must continue to raise our voice to demand justice for all. That’s the only way to live.
Thank you 🙏
Qasim, this is such a heart-wrenching and insightful series. Thank you for bearing witness and sharing it with all of us.
Thank you, Denise. And thank you for your kind support of this initiative.

Unspeakable.

Why do people focus only on hate? This is so sad.
Well, I am sure the 2000 lbs Bomb is more DECENT in the violent silencing of the victims !

Well said, Qasim! Fight the injustice!
Noble begging for “Spare Me Fascists” ?
Enjoy their Dance in your Cemetery !
It's called human decency. If you hate Jewish people, you don't belong on my page and you're not welcome here.

Agreed and well said. We need to keep raising our voices.
Hebron- surveillance capitalism at its worst promise of the future for all.
The expansion is horrifying.
