The war has finally ended after 471 days of pain, death, and suffering, where each day carried a weight equal to years. Today, with trembling hands and a heavy heart, I write: "Survivor of the 2023 Israeli genocide."
But this is not the end. It is the beginning. Today, we start to mend wounds that are not only visible but deeply felt in the soul. We begin to rebuild what was destroyed, not just the stones but the lives that bled and the memories that burned.
We need every helping hand, every heart in solidarity, and every voice to amplify our cause. Reviving life here is not a choice. It is an obligation we all share. Let us come together on this journey of healing and restoring hope.

Anonymous asked:
wait I know why we hate AIPAC but what did ADL do? I thought the anti defamation League was good
themilfking answered:
The ADL is an Israeli/Zionist advocacy group at its core. It’s main priority as an organization is to protect Israel and its mission for a Jewish Ethno-State. This is especially true under Johnathan Greenblatt’s leadership who has said “antizionism is antisemitism”
It’s easy to think that the “Anti Defamation League” has no underlying agenda given its history as a “civil rights organization” but it has constantly used that as a screen for extremely right wing positions on Israel.
Some of their greatest hits include:
Equating Students for Justice in Palestine, JVP, and CAIR to “white supremacists” simply because they strongly oppose an ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
A leaked ADL memo revealing how ADL plans to “soften” the news to Americans that Israel plans to annex the West Bank. (Source). In this leak Greenblatt recognizes that the annexation is a violation of basic human rights. To me this is a clear indication that they are less concerned with civil rights and more concerned with shaping the public image of Israel, especially in the US. Really urge you all to read this leak!
Supported South African Apartheid (surprise surprise) and participated in propaganda against Nelson Mandela and the ANC. They even employed a spy named Roy Bullock to infiltrate the anti-apartheid campaign in the US. They later settled a law suit for this. (Source)
That’s not even close to the only time they’ve utilized spies. THIS recent leak of Greenblatt talks about ADL having spies in Jewish Voice for Peace and other organizations. It also talks about how they are having a hard time with the global youth no longer buying into their propaganda. Another source you should give your full attention to. PLEASE listen to that whole thing. It’s truly terrifying. You’re gonna hear them talk a lot about why Tiktok is a danger to their mission.
HERE is an article about how the ADL has a long history of smearing black activists, working with Police/ICE, and its attempts to demonize the BDS movement.
I could go on and on about how terrible and deceitful the ADL is. The sources above are a good start to understanding why we shouldn’t trust the ADL but please look into all the other things they’ve done like working with the FBI to spy on Arab Americans, infiltrating student organizations they find to be a threat to “Israel’s image”, surveillance, the people who fund/donate to them etc.
The best way to fight orgs like this is to share/spread this info as much as you can. It’s clearly working because they’re losing global support especially with the youth.
An important time to remember that the ADL"s primary objective is to uphold Zionism
Mohammad Ayesh wants to finish his campaign as soon as possible, so that he may return to North Gaza and rebuild his life. Please continue to support him, boost and donate! Gaza will be rebuilt by her own people but they need to rebuild their lives now.
People returned to what was left of their homes, but all they found was rubble—scattered stones and memories buried beneath the wreckage. Some searched for their missing children, for the mother who was here before the ceiling collapsed, for a voice that once filled the place with life. Destruction is everywhere, and death has not yet left. It lingers, as if waiting to take more.
470 days of war, yet it has not ended. A new battle has begun—the battle to find shelter amidst the ruins, to find a morsel of food for starving children, to find medicine for those still suffering. Unexploded missiles litter the streets, a haunting reminder that danger is far from over. We live among the wreckage, sleep under the open sky, searching for a moment of safety that remains out of reach.

I want to remind you that there is no ceasefire in Sudan!
Despite the US putting a sanction on Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, also known as Hemedti, who is the general leading the RSF (a paramilitary backed by the UAE), and Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the general for the Sudanese Armed Forced that is backed by Sudan"s High Council, the genocide is still ongoing!
We need to do our part: Boycott, protest, and donate!
Please consider extending a helping hand to Eman Abdelrahman, @emiiii980, (#213)! She has been fundraising since January of last year to rebuild her home since the RSF has bombed it. But donations have slowed down significantly. Her fundraiser would stagnate often! In fact, as I write this, it has taken 6 days for her to receive 1 donation! So let"s pick up the pace. How about we help her raise the short-term goal of 39K ASAP! 38,689 CHF has been raised. There is 311 CHF ($342 USD) left to go!
You can match me! I have given 5 CHF ($5.50 USD), but you"re more than welcome to give more! And make sure to pay attention to the currency exchange. $10 USD = 9 CHF!
Can you imagine this?
Imagine this: could you survive in such conditions? Facing constant challenges with no escape? Can you adapt to a life where every moment is a battle for survival?
"Please do not let us down. Extend a helping hand to support us. We are in desperate need of every bit of assistance from you."🙏🙏🙏

Support this campaign plz, she is a sister of a very dear friend
There is a story of Saint Maria of Paris that when, in occupied France, a Nazi solider approached her and asked her if she knew of any Jewish people she replied "Yes" and went and directed the solider to an icon of the Virgin Mary with the infant Jesus.
So I think, if a govement officer approches you and asks you if you know of any illegal immigrants you too can do as the saint did then and direct them to an icon of the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus.
