The Gaza Strip has been set on fire and blood for 9 nights and 10 days by one of the world's most powerful armies. The Gaza Strip is this little piece of land on the edge of the Mediterranean. Largest open air prison surrounded by walls, barbed wire, miradors, permanently monitored by the drones. Can't leave the Gaza Strip, impossible to escape barbarism. Gaza is trapped; more than 2 million inhabitants are suffering from air strikes, cannon firing at the border and shells fired from military boats.
Buildings, houses, shops, schools, clinics, banks.... sprayed by Israeli missiles. Tons of bombs are dropped night and day on the Gaza Strip.
Some buildings and houses bombarded with their inhabitants inside. What could be more horrible than seeing whole families decimated, some people living under the rubble of their buildings. Here, no snort dogs, no detectors to locate survivors. Bare hands at their own risk civil forces search the rubble...
The roads are high, even donkeys and carts won't be able to take them...
For the past few days, tap water has been salty, nauseating, the desalination center is no longer working. Power is out in many places
All these crimes are committed by Israel. This state that expropriates Palestinians, that practices torture, that imprison children, that uses unconventional weapons, that bombard civilians, hospitals, ambulances, target journalists. The modern-day barbarians.
Gaza is crying, Gaza suffocating, Gaza is bruised, bleeding, disfigured...
Muhammad al-Hadidi, 37, a Palestinian man who lost his whole family except for one son due to the Israeli aggression on Gaza.
An Israeli airstrike that hit a house in a Gaza refugee camp killed at least 10 Palestinians from the same extended family overnight, eight of them children, according to witnesses. A 5-month-old infant was pulled from the rubble alive.
The father of four of the children who died, Mohammed al-Hadidi, told reporters that his wife and their five sons had gone to Shati to visit her brother for Eid al-Fitr, the Islamic feasting holiday that marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
“They were sleeping in their homes,” “They weren’t holding weapons, they weren’t firing rockets and they weren’t harming anyone.”
Initially home to 23,000 refugees who fled Lydda, Jaffa, Be’er Sheva and other areas of Palestine in 1948, the camp has since grown to house more than 85,000 people. All of them reside in an area of about a fifth of a square mile, making it one of the most crowded places in the world, according to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, known as Unrwa, which works with Palestinian refugees.
Tens of thousands of Gazans seek cover from Israeli airstrikes, crowded shelters could set off another wave of the coronavirus pandemic in the already overcrowded shelters.
Israeli airstrikes have destroyed residential areas in Gaza causing many to flee seeking shelter, fearing for their lives, and seeking protection for their family members. At least 72,000 Palestinians in Gaza have been displaced since the beginning of the conflict with Israel last week, the United Nations said on Tuesday.
1897 A brief history of the Palestinian Israeli conflict.. Many believe the conflict goes back 1000's of years but the truth of the matter is it goes back to the about the beginning of the 1900's when Zionism was created which gave the idea of a Jewish state within Jerusalem. It later becomes the basis of Israeli nationalism. The British and French carved up the region after the Ottoman Empire collapsed during World War I. Arabs clashed with new Jewish settlers after Britain brought them to regions they now controlled. Many felt it was an attempt of more British colonialism which Arabs have been traditionally victim of in the Middle East where they are indigenous. WWII ended... The British and French abandon the region, leaving a mess behind. In 1947, the UN resolution created a Jewish state of Israel and an Arab state of Palestine.. The Arab states declared war on Israel and lost. Israel pushed way past the borders under the UN plan. Israel dispelled Palestinians who's descendants today total 7 million refugees.. Palestinians fled persecution to Jordan and other nearby areas that are pro-Arab.
1948-1949 78% of historic Palestine is claimed by Israel in a war referred to as al Nakba. This war resulted in 700,000 Palestinians becoming homeless and resulting in them becoming refugees. Many relocating to Jordan.
1967 Naksa... Israel takes over East Jerusalem, the remaining Palestinian territories of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, as well as the Syrian Golan Heights and the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula. 100% of the area is now controlled by Israel but contested. Palestinians remain but are systematically evicted by the controlling Israeli government.

Nov 3, 2009 The United Nations, the United States and the European Union have all called on Israel to stop the illegal eviction of Palestinians and the demolition of their homes. Israel ignores international demands and continues to evict citizens based on the fact they are not Jewish... Specifically targeting those of Palestinian ethnicity.

Last month, she had just spoke to The Times about the challenges she faced as a female medical volunteer. Obviously she was unarmed and peaceful. Not deserving of lethal force. She was shot by an Israel sniper while conducting medical aid. Typically this is considered an international crime.. She was clearly wearing a medical vest. She was a small woman not posing any threat to anyone..
Jun 4, 2018"Since nonviolent protests began at the end of March, Israeli soldiers have killed at least 119 people, including 14 children. More than 13,000 have been wounded. “It was clear to everybody that she was a paramedic, that that was murder. I mean, that was a crime committed before cameras,” said Dr. Medhat Abbas, director of Al-Shifa Hospital, the largest medical facility in the Gaza Strip. We also speak with Najjar’s cousin, Dalia al-Najjar, who says the response of the international community to the Gaza crisis has been “really disappointing,” and notes the U.S. vetoed a draft U.N. resolution urging the protection of Palestinians on Friday, the same day Najjar was killed. “It’s a shameful side that the United States decided to take.”

It is being condemned internationally, but Israel still continues to break international laws and agreements..
May 10, 2021 Hamas launched rockets at Israel in retaliation to forced evictions of Palestinians who owned their own land, but have been systematically evicted by for settlers who are Jewish, al Aqsa mosque attacks against Muslims in prayer, and right wing mobs who have been let run astray to attack Arabs without punishment by Israel who is the controlling government in the region..

Israel has not respected property rights of Palestinian individuals..

I am a vegan that believes in unity and that there is a peaceful resolution where we can all coexist.. I think that both sides should integrate, forget about all the difference that divide us, and share the resources.. Unity is power... Anything else is a conflict which leads to war. Veganism brings us to higher levels of existence. Zionism, Christianity, Islamic, Hinduism, and any other religious belief is not the answer... Let's forget about the outdated past beliefs, we are all the same. We should respect that we are all different, but at the same time practice unity. We need to share the resources as equals, without the expense of harming animals or the environment.. We could have the perfect world with no wars ---- as it is meant to be.
Ask yourself what are we really fighting about? There are very little genetic difference between us humans. Why are we fighting?
If your religion includes a racial right, it's not a religion, it's racism. Someone made it up so people would be in eternal conflict.
