A new suffering and displacement 😔🚨

Hello everyone from khan younis city in the south of Gaza Strip , now its 3:10 am the temperature is 10c it's very cold especially inside the tent ⛺ we don't know what to do, even we are afraid to light up a fire because of reconnaissance aircraft exactly (Quadcopter). We live in Mawasi Al Qarara next to the sea so the weather here is so cold.

Hope we can back to our place soon and the war end.

Anyone can help, donate to us we need to buy some necessities as :

—some Fabrics and blankets to make the tent warmer from the inside .

—nylon cover sheets to protect the tent from rains.

—Some pieces of warm clothes for our baby .

TBH : we spent all our money which we saved during the last displacement (No.13) especially the transportation was very expensive. In addition to that the prices of food are crazy, a 25 kg bag of flour costs $200.

Everybody boycott kfc, McDonalds, Hardee's, starbucks, coke, Pepsi, pringles, Maggie etc.

Search brands standing with Israel and boycott them.

You actions matter! You matter!

"Everybody has the responsibility to condemn it, to condemn it in the strongest possible way, and let's just call it what it is. It's a complete breach of international law - the targeting of a hospital. There should be an independent investigation to find those who were responsible.

You [the BBC] have been watching the scenes and covering the scenes overnight, and people are rightly outraged, in the region and right across the world. This is just a complete and utter human tragedy. The violence has to stop.

There has to be a ceasefire, and frankly if you look at this issue stepping back from the current crisis, the only way we're going to stop the perpetual cycle of violence that we see flare up year after year after year is by addressing the route cause. The route cause continues to be that while we have an Israeli state, that is a promise that was made, we don't have the Palestinian state yet as per the 1967 border. That two state solution, that many of us have spoken about for decades has just never materialized. Until there is a concerted effort, until there is, frankly, an honest broker that is able to help to broker that solution, we're going to unfortunately see these perpetual cycles of violence continue for years to come."

- Humza Yousef, First Minister of Scotland, talking to the BBC about the bombing of Al-Ahli hospital

eurovision 2024 was a shitshow. here are my resolutions for next year's contest:

- ban israel. get them out. fuck em. not only are they genocidal they broke so many rules you don't even have to make it political

- on the back of that, change the sponsor to not be an israeli company please hello

- fire the ebu head. fire the board. fire the scriptwriters. build a new ebu from scratch at this point what the fuuuck

- iceland should internally select bashar (their runner up of their national final, who is palestinian and iconic) to compete. he's great

- the dutch should legally be allowed to throw things at the ebu

- vatican city should compete. pope's house 2026

- i know switzerland won but can they hold the contest in sealand or something switzerland is expensive

- brief the commentators on pronouns please

- bring joost back why not. i don't even like europapa but that was wild. at least as an interval act

- the uk should send the guy that stands in my local football stadium ringing bells and shouting

- put a fun non european country in there. i'm thinking like brazil

- more microstates please

- no covering up booing. go full big brother just let it happen . freedom of speech + bit funny

- worldvision on the table please

- more stuff that's godawful

- put ivory coast in so people can get reallt confused between their flag and ireland's 🇮🇪🇨🇮

- let scotland send their own entry we only drag them down. i'll take nasty techno or bagpipes. or both

- more acts that upset the church

a contest that stands for peace above all means it must stand for a free palestine and safety for its people. let's ensure they return to that form and the people that let it get this bad get their due shit

We are reaching out to you with an urgent plea to help Hassan Al Naqleh and his family

Hello, I am Hassan from Gaza and I am 20 years old and I am the breadwinner for my family. Unfortunately, because my father is not here, I had a supermarket and I was also studying at the university fine arts and graphic design, but this difficult war came upon me and my family of 6 members, my older brother Muhammad, and he is suffering from psychological pressures. The difficulty that has increased in the war has increased, and he needs treatment, but there is none here in Gaza. His condition is worsening and becoming worse every day that passes without treatment, and my sister Hanin, who works as a nurse in Al-Aqsa Hospital and teaches French language training at the university, and my sister Afaf, who studies physical education at the university, and my brother Tariq. Who finished high school last year and who helps me at work. My mother, Israa, is 46 years old and used to help me in the supermarket.

Please stand with us and spread my story everywhere. We need your humanity. Maybe your humanity will bring us to safety and rebuild my family’s beautiful life again.

6 individuals. Each individual needs to pay, in coordination with the Egyptian company Ya Hala, approximately 7 thousand euros for our exit to Egypt. We need 42 thousand euros for my exit. I and my family will remain temporarily in Egypt until the Turkish visa is issued for me and my family, which my relatives presented to me, namely Nadia Majid Al-Naqla, the wife of the President of Scotland, and we will begin. By building our new life there, we will need housing, transportation, travel costs, and papers, approximately 18 thousand euros

Thank you for standing with me and spreading my story to your friends and relatives

❤️❤️❤️ Big love to you who helped, contributed and spread our story so we can get out of here…..

Scotland stands with Palestine 🇵🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Images from the Dundee protests.

Keep fighting and keep standing up for Palestine.🇵🇸🇵🇸

[i-am-aprl]

In Scotland

[starlightshadowsworld]

Rishi Sunak: We stand with Israel. The United Kingdom stands with Israel.

Today, 28th October half a million people gathered in London to protest for Palestine's freedom.

Last week it was 300,000.

Protests are being held all over the country.

People are calling their local MP's demanding for a ceasefire.

Who are putting you on blast in the House of Commons.

People are putting up Palestinian flags and putting em back up when you tear them down.

A Palestinian flag was projected onto Big Ben.

Students are calling out their universities for speaking against Palestine.

Scotland first minister is firmly against Israel.

Irelands opposition has more support than you've ever had.

Even the police won't arrest people for saying from the river to the sea like you wanted.

You cannot silence us and you won't.

Because the people of the United stand with Palestine.

And we don't need a man who wasn't even elected to try and tell us what we stand for.

[absolutebitchgetter]

scotland stands with palestine

So

The Uk supports Israel, which is quite fucked up. Its a genocide.

Heres some fun facts.

3/4 of the MPs in the British government are English. Welsh and Scottish get 11% EACH. THEY HAVE NO SAY.

Scotland has always wanted independence. Its a fact. They have fought for it. However. England doesnt want them, therefore keeps them.

Scotland have 80% of the Uk's oil, and a lot of their resources.

Palestine comes in in Scottish sports.

These are Palestine flags being waved at soccer/football games. So basically Scotland is trapped under the control of England. Possibly wales aswell. The UK should split.

Just to be clear, just England supports the Israelis.

[thedreadvampy]

Yesterday's march was pretty packed out, we just about all fitted into St Andrews Square but we were packed pretty cheek to cheek, and we fully filled up Waverley Bridge while people were still coming in off Princes Street.

one lad (skinhead, poppies) came into the crowd and started shouting IT'S FUCKIN REMEMBRANCE DAY THIS IS FUCKIN SCOTLAND YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT SCOTLAND etc all that shit. but he was surrounded and shouted down until he slunk off, no violence, good job.

The chants were mostly being led by some of the kids from the Scottish-Palestinian groups which was really good. Idk how many people were there but it was a good few thousand. Queer blocs and Jewish blocs and queer Jewish blocs and old school trade unionists and old ladies with white poppies. Other than a couple of people who were like 'well why is it our problem' people outside the march seemed really receptive too, we had people on buses and on the street joining in the cheers. Scotland stands with Palestine against genocide. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

Controversial (United States) opinion that shouldn’t be controversial, from someone that lives in the USA

on the Freedom of Speech amendment (USA):

“freedom of speech” protects your right to stand up to the government, to protest in ways that could otherwise be outlawed (such as burning the country flag or posting about what they’re doing wrong on social media).

“freedom of speech” does not mean you will be pardoned for every crime that involved you speaking about something unrelated to government protest.

“freedom of speech” does not mean that there won’t be consequences from your fellow citizens if you choose to use that ‘freedom’ to harm others.

it does not mean that you have the right to verbally abuse, verbally harass, threaten, or use your words in a hate crime against someone (especially under protected statuses, like gender identity, sexual/romantic orientation, race, etc.).

it does not mean that you can tell fellow voters you hope their queer/trans children die or get assaulted if they don’t want to vote for Biden, or Trump, or whomever*.

(* this has actually happened to our adoptive ren E (they/them) repeatedly about our little brother Q (he/they). yes, admitting they don’t like Biden due to the shit he’s allowing, doing, encouraging, etc. has actually gotten these kinds of comments...from democrat/“liberal” Biden supporters, of all people. they told ren E that they hope Q dies.)

it does NOT mean you can say whatever you want about everything, forever. it protects your speech against the government only.

so no, freedom of speech does not prevent you from being arrested for hate crime, harassment, abuse, etc.

no, it does not protect you from being kicked out of a business after verbally harassing/abusing or sexually harassing an employee (or many employees).

no, it does not protect you from fellow citizens counter-protesting or from them telling you that you are factually incorrect.

no, it does not protect you from legal repercussions if you use your online presence to bully, harass, abuse, etc. other people, or if you doxx people, or if you threaten someone or their child.

Freedom of Speech is part of Freedom to Protest. they go hand in hand.

you have the right to say ‘hey I don’t like the government doing [insert atrocity here (Palestine, Iraq, etc.)] / passing [insert a law or policy that hurts people]’.

you do not have the freedom to say ‘fuck you and your whole culture/country/gender/identity/etc.’ to another person.

I don’t expect this to go far but I wanted to say it...somewhere. and here is the best bet because FB would lose its mind & the algorithm might bite my ass if I openly call Palestine an atrocity or call out...anything, really. they repress content like this.

(Facebook is very anti free speech (/srs), funny enough (/sarcastic, frustrated); it suppresses pro Palestine content but doesn’t remove the most hateful bullshit spread all over its platform...and pro Palestine is, in fact, speaking up against the government.)

you (general/nbh) should be more angry about Facebook and TikTok and Twitter suppressing anti government anything (pro Palestine, pro LGBT+ progress, ‘we should actually fund schools’, etc.). you (general/nbh) should be less angry about laws that protect people from harm.

that is all.

(this was inspired by USA newspaper lash-back on Scotland’s new anti hate crime law. maybe the law isn’t perfect, but it’s a step in the right direction, & it is not an infringement on freedom of speech.)

(incase this breaks containment: hateful replies, reblogs, asks, etc. will be blocked)
