Occupation forces have arrested our friend #MahmouMuna!
Mahmoud runs one of the best bookshops in #Palestine, the #Jerusalem-based #EducationalBookshop.
They kill our people!
They bomb our universities!
They destroy our books!
This is #EPISTEMICIDE, the "killing of knowledge"!
My heart is with Mahmoud and Ahmad,I feel so shocked. Sadly, I am not suprised, there is nothing that now can stop this madness, only us, well organized citizens. I wish they'll released very soon #EducationalBookshop #Palestine
Release Mahmoud Muna! #EducationalBookshop
What stage of «democracy» have you reached when you arrest booksellers?

One of the intellectual sanctuaries of East Jerusalem. A meeting point of book lovers enjoying coffee and sandviches. On the shelves stories of 1000s of people in biographies, novels & poems are on display, now the #EducationalBookshop has its own story to tell.
Not book burning but an attack on intellectual life all the same. #educationalbookshop #releaseMahmoudMuna #releaseAhmedMuna
