Hard recommend.

Black text on white background. Transcribed text: I did not “announce” that Shireen was a citizen of the United States. And when I wrote about her murder, I insisted to my editors that, if I must mention this fact, I would refer to her as a carrier of a US passport, not as an American citizen. Why contribute—even if only with a simple phrase—to a hierarchy of lives where citizenry, like race, class, gender, “civility,” plays a role in determining whether someone deserves compassion or due diligence? I wanted the world to stand still over the death of a Palestinian, regardless of qualifiers. But that didn’t matter: within hours, the news spread like wildfire. Her passport was the talking point. Shireen was an American and her alleged Americanness swiftly made her human. — Perfect Victims: And the Politics of Appeal by Mohammed El-Kurd

Black text on white background. Transcribed text: “You discredit the messenger as a way of discrediting the message” has long been an Israeli mantra. 14 For our plight cannot be “discredited,” but our characters can be. They turn us into criminals of thought, guilty of our rage and grudges, of our natural responses to brutalization. They test our answers against the viewer’s inherent bias. The bombs raining down on the besieged Gaza Strip become secondary, if not entirely irrelevant, to our televised trials. We die a lot as defendants. — Perfect Victims: And the Politics of Appeal by Mohammed El-Kurd

Palestinian activist Mohammed El-Kurd takes the Oxford Union by storm, exposing Zionism’s brutal realities and dismantling apartheid justifications in a jaw-dropping speech. His powerful words silence opposition and demand global action #oxfordunion #palestine #mohammedelkurd youtu.be/Nkx8p1gUmpI
Mohammed El-Kurd Tonight We Die As A Family At the hospital the nurse is startled a surprise visitor: her husband’s corpse on a stretcher he arrived in the backseat of a taxi- a makeshift hearse. There are not enough ambulances in Gaza and more than enough death. She is livid. “Men never listen I told you wait till after my shift I need to tend to the wounded first I told you tonight we died as a family we were supposed to die as a family”
What is the World coming to when the call goes out to "normalise the massacres" at a Pro Palestinian Demo in London?
Is this how far Antisemitism has come again in the World?
