What's happening in Gaza NOW is GENOCIDE .

Dozen Bombs are falling on Gaza by Israeli occupation warplanes.

Deaths : 106 including 27 children.

ما يحدث في غزة الآن هو إبادة جماعية.

استشهاد ١٠٦ في غزة بينهم ٢٧ طفل.

اللهم انصرهم و احفظهم بحفظك و احقن دمائهم.

بردا و سلاما يارب العالمين .

حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل..اللهم انتقم منهم.

[Images description: A ten part Twitter thread by Suhail Matar. The tweets read as follows:

1) Because I mostly user twitter academically, let me share my experience as a Palestinian in Israeli academia. A thread.

2) I attended the Technion (In Haifa, my city) between 2004 and 2011. This coincided with Israel’s 2006 war on Lebanon, 2008/9 war on Gaza, and 2010 attack on the flotilla headed for Gaza.

3) This meant many protests at the university’s gates. We were usually some 150 students, chanting support for Gaza, say and condemnations of Israeli aggression.

4) Across the street, without fail, was always a 10x bigger protest: huge Israeli flags, enraged Zionists jumping up and down yellow “DEATH TO ARABS! DEATH TO ARABS!” Our chants were 100% drowned The blind hatred in their eyes could have probably powered the campus.

5) These weren’t just random people. These were my Physical Chemistry professor, for example. He used to show up to lectures in full settler regalia. Imagine a US professor showing up to class in Proud Boys or KKK regalia.

6) It was that shy, tall, bespectacled student from year 2 who’d asked me for tips (having recently finished the bachelor’s program) only a few weeks prior. He was also there chanting “DEATH TO ARABS!” Oh, yes, he knew I was Palestinian.

7) We then had to go back to the lecture halls and literally sit with people who chanted for our death. Disciplinary action, you suggest? Hahahaha

8) Not to mention that, a few weeks later, those Israeli students who were recruited for the reserve army for whatever was it was would come back to university. We were sitting next to snipers and pilots who killed people, our people, in Gaza and Lebanon.

9) In the Technion we were “lucky” it didn’t go further. Other campuses are much more politically active, and Palestinian students are routinely harassed, attacked, arrested, expelled for simply raising a flag, or expressing their Palestinianness.

10) This is what your fancy collab with an Israeli university looks like, under the surface. This is the grim reality of Israeli academia. Yes, it has top-notch education and great researchers. But it is severly lacking in basic humanity towards even its own Palestinians.]

it’s being reported that electricity and power have been cut in gaza in an effort to stop livestreams of the now ground attack that israel is conducting in gaza.

Sometimes I think about life goals and aspirations and instead of motivating me it just makes me feel a lot of pressure. Like I should be more strategic about the things I'm doing and I should be putting more effort into upskilling and career development etc. But then I remember the things that give me the most fulflilment are things like laughing a lot and having meaningful conversations with people I love. Waking up early to read a book that gives me a new perspective. Going for a walk and looking at the trees. Eating sweet oranges that peel easily. Listening to my favorite people talk about things they're excited about. All of it has nothing to do with my career. And that's what makes me feel like hey maybe I'll be okay. Maybe as I grow older all I really need is some trees some fruit some books and some people to love and love me back.

لا احد يستطيع ان يعيش بالطريقة التي يعيش بها الناس في غزة، إسرائيل تهاجمهم في كل لحظة مما يدفع الأطفال والعائلات إلى هجر منازلهم والكثير منهم يموت بسبب الهجوم الصاروخي بدون إنذار! ولسنوات كانت إسرائيل تسيطر على 90% من التغطية الإعلامية بينما الان يستخدمون المحرقة والبطاقة المعادية للسامية ايضا لإسكات النقاش المشروع وتبرير التطهير العرقي في فلسطين ووسائل الإعلام العربية تكشف لهم مايفعلونه في غزة ⁣

فإسرائيل لا تريد السلام هذه هي الإبادة الجماعية والتطهير العرقي التي كانت تحدث عن لسنوات عديدة. الناس يموتون لا يوجد منصة صغيرة جدًا للتعبير عن الرأي ونشر الوعي، الرجاء الاستمرار في تضخيم أصوات الفلسطينيين حيث لا توجد أي تغطية إعلامية. وتتعرض غزة للهجوم بمئات الضربات الجوية. إذا كنت مسلمًا أو مسيحيًا أو أي شيء آخر غير مهم، فيجب أن تكون إنسانًا!!!! وتقع على عاتقنا جميعا مسؤولية مشاركتها ونشر الوعي بها..⁣

⁣

No one would ever be able to live the way people live in Gaza, israel attack them at every single moment which leads kids and families to abandon their homes and a lot of them die because of the without warning missileattack! ⁣

For years israil have been controlling 90% of the media coverage while using the holocaust and antisemitic card to silence legitimate debate and justify ethnic cleansing in Palestine.⁣

Now the Arab media is showing them what they're doing in Gaza.⁣

⁣

ISRAEL DOESN’T WANT PEACE. This is genocide⁣

and ethnic cleansing that has been happening for many years. People are DYING. No platform is too small to speak up and spread awareness, please continue to amplify Palestinians’ voices ، Because⁣

No exist any media coverage. Gaza is being under attack with over hundreds of air strikes . If u r a Muslim , Christian or what ever , not important, u must be human!!!! we all have the responsibilities to share it and spread awareness.⁣
