How media dehumanizes Palestinians. We don’t know who was injured, why, and by who. Using the passive voice makes you implicit in the violence exercised against Palestinians by Israeli forces

Proud of colleagues, professors, members @Georgetown who protested invitation of 2 Israeli occupation forces, one participated in Gaza genocide. My friend told me this protest was the biggest on campus in a long time. Criminals shouldn’t speak on our campuses. ✊🏽📸 @Jaber_Besan

It’s amazing that more than 70 years of colonizing Palestinians, stealing their land, and murdering them didn’t instigate this level of protest and anger by Israeli society. But Netanyahu did… Says a lot…

The violence in Jenin is not an anomaly. It’s what settler colonialism requires to sustain itself- the continuous killing of indigenous people. These images say a lot about the tragedy experienced by Palestinians on daily bases on the hands of Israeli settlers.

In 1982, Israel invaded Lebanon: tens of thousands civilians were killed, hundreds of thousands were made homeless. In 1996 Israel attacked UN compound in Qana (south of Leb),106 were killed, of whom half were children, &120 were injured. These lights won't erase history #Beirut

33 years ago today, the first Intifada erupted in Palestine against Israeli military occupation. Women played a central role in confrontations. The picture of lady with the yellow scarf and shoes became very popular. This lady is Micheline Awwad.
