I don't post a lot of my songs and music stuff to this blog, but this one's different. I wrote it to process my feelings, as a Jewish person, seeing so many public figures dismiss calls for ceasefire in Gaza, or criticism of Israel's actions, as antisemetic. There's a link to the Palestine Relief Fund in the description of the video; please consider donating if you can.

Look, I get that the Gaza crisis is a real thing and a big deal. But sending me DMs asking for money is not the way to go - you just come off as a potential scammer. There’s way too many red flags from this.
I know your cause may be legitimate, but people could very well be using this to scam money for themselves. It’s scum of the earth behavior, but it exists, so yeah.
When I make a charitable donation of any sort, I’ll do it thru verified channels I can trust, not some random GoFundMe I get sent a link to.

AN OPEN LETTER to THE PRESIDENT & U.S. CONGRESS
Enforce Leahy! No funding to IDF troops who’ve committed human rights abuses!
354 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!
I’ve just learned from Pro Publica that “a special State Department panel recommended months ago that Secretary of State Blinken disqualify multiple Israeli military and police units from receiving U.S. aid after reviewing allegations that they committed serious human rights abuses.” But Blinken has failed to act on the proposal. This in the face of growing international criticism of the Israeli military’s conduct in Gaza.
I’m livid about this. We cannot keep sending unconditional military aid to anyone, regardless of whom, if they are committing human rights abuses. We have Leahy laws to prevent it, and they are not being enforced here. It’s unacceptable.
The U.S. government needs to stop giving the Israeli government a blank check. Israel has a right to defend itself, of course, but the abuses described in Pro Publica’s report can’t be defined as self defense under anyone’s definition of the term. They’re abhorrent and our tax dollars mustn’t be spent on them. Thanks.

The miracle of life, in the midst of death
Just finished reading this article about childbirth in Gaza; my eyes welled with bitter tears, words continue to fail me, and my soul aches with the cruel injustice of it all.
An entire generation is currently being born into a battered, beseiged, and broken community. Why is it that the most vunerable members of society are the ones on the frontlines? Why is it always them who pay the heaviest price of a conflict that has nothing to do with them? And why, why, in the name of the sanctity of life, does the world insist on failing these people and forgetting about them?
20 years ago today, my mother gave birth to me. She always says that motherhood was both the scariest, yet sweetest thing she had experienced, and that it forever changed her as a person.
Sometimes the idea of childbirth, the concept of bringing life into this world, just blows me away. This may or may not be me being a medical student lol, but its just the most awe-inspiring thing ever to me.
Giving birth in the midst of death shatters both my heart and my faith in humanity in all the worst ways imaginable.

Hey guys, when people from Gaza drop into my asks how do I best answer them? I don't know how to draft up campaigns and I'm not sure if I even need to or if I should tag really well instead? I have low energy and it hurts me so much to see what they're trying to survive through and I want to help as much as I can, but have no money myself so I can only promote visibility. I have abt 15 in my asks and I do NOT want to ignore them. I just don't know the most respectful way to promote them with the goal of actually getting their donations in.

Hi 👋, My name is Mohammad, and I’m reaching out in a moment of desperate need. I’m a father of three young children living in Gaza, and we are caught in the midst of a catastrophic war. Our home is no longer a safe haven, and the future here seems increasingly uncertain. 💔
I’ve launched a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $40,000 to relocate my family to a safer place where my children can grow up in peace and have a chance at a brighter future. 🕊️🇵🇸
Unfortunately, my previous fundraising efforts were abruptly halted when my account was terminated without explanation. However, I remain determined to keep fighting for my family’s safety and well-being. 🫶
If you could take a moment to read our story, consider donating, or simply share our campaign with others, it would make an incredible difference. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety and a new beginning. 🙏
Thank you for your time, compassion, and support. ❤
https://gofund.me/fd1faea2 🔗
Unfortunately at the moment I can't contribute to help financially. Spread the word or donate if you guys can. 💜

Greetings, compassionate souls,
I am engineer Mohammed Abu Qaoud, reaching out to you from the heart of Gaza, where the echoes of resilience are drowned out by the haunting sounds of war and the pervasive scent of death and destruction.
With me are my beloved family members: my father, Abdel Nasser Abu Qaoud, my mother, Samar Abu Qaoud, my brother, Ahmed Abu Qaoud, and my sister, Mariam Abu Qaoud.
We have witnessed the abrupt transformation of our lives, forcing us to contend with devastation. Before these fateful events, our family enjoyed a semblance of stability. Our home was a sanctuary for us, but since the fourth day of the war over 300 days ago, we were regretfully displaced from the house we passionately built over 10 years.
The tranquility we once enjoyed was shattered by the brutality of the conflict. Now, we find ourselves displaced for eight months, struggling to find safety amid the ongoing violence.
Our home was partially destroyed and needs rebuilding and renovation. Currently, we live in a tent we made with primitive materials, which is unfit for living.
Life in our new surroundings has become a daily struggle amid the renewed crises each day.
The months of war have left us without basic necessities. The absence of work, electricity, and reliable internet, along with the destruction of vital infrastructure, has plunged us into severe hardships. With no means of income, we find ourselves grappling with the harsh reality of poverty, unable to afford even the most basic necessities due to soaring prices and scarcity of essential goods.
But I have not lost hope,
With your support, I believe we can rebuild our lives. Your kindness can provide us with the means to survive the dire conditions in Gaza, and to find safety and stability for my family. Your simple support can help us rebuild our family home or to travel and escape this grim reality, regaining our freedom in life.
I humbly request your assistance on this journey to renew hope and rebuild our shattered lives. Please contribute what you can and share our story so we can achieve our goal together.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Mohammed Abu Qaoud

The Forever War
How Binary Positioning on the Israel/Palestine Conflict Ignores Its History
Source: BBC News
By Honest John
POLITICS LOVES binaries. There is nothing that pundits, journalists, activists and the committed like more than a straight good guy/bad guy narrative in which complex issues can be reduced, ultimately, to that of a wholly malign force oppressing a virtuous victim bravely standing up for freedom, democracy, common sense or equality - particularly on the left. And no issue dispenses with subtlety and context more readily and thoughtlessly than the tragic forever war of the Israel/Palestine conflict. Since the Hamas attack on the border settlements of southern Israel on 7th October, the partisans have been out in force. Whether it is the pro-Israel “shoulder to shoulder” rhetoric of the US, EU and U.K. governments, Keir Starmer and most of the conservative media offering almost unconditional support to the Israeli regime in the face of those attacks , or the pro-Palestinian sectarian left, street protestors, Muslim communities worldwide and much of the liberal left press appalled at the extent and depth of the Israeli assault on Gaza in response, the space for nuance seems vanishingly small. Lines are drawn: you are either with Israel and its right to defend itself, or you are a hate-filled terrorist apologist and borderline antisemite; or you are either with the Palestinian population being bulldozed in Gaza or you are supporter of neo-colonialism, racism and violent attacks on a defenceless civilian population. It has always struck me as curious that one of the least straightforward geopolitical issues in the world can be reduced to emotional adherence to one cause or the other, each filled with an enraged righteousness that is unwilling to give any room to the narrative or case of their opponents. No wonder this conflict appears intractable. But this habitual positioning is simply not good enough. If the partisans in a conflict now nearly a century old cannot even begin to discover empathy for the other side then the war, violence and misery that infects this narrow eastern Mediterranean coastline will truly never end.
On the left, nothing triggers moral outrage more than the plight of the Palestinians at the hands of the state of Israel. Since the end of South African apartheid, no other issue of social or political justice arouses such passion, denunciation and disproportionate attention than the spectacle of the Israeli military pulverising Gaza or protecting the settler extremists in their efforts to seize more and more of the West Bank from the enfeebled grasp of the Palestinian Authority. Much of the left’s position on Israel is indeed a moral standpoint that supports an asymmetrical struggle of street resistance against overwhelming military force, particularly since the PLO ceased to be a credible military presence in the 1980s. But the left’s position is not motivated purely by liberal handwringing. Its roots lie in the ahistorical ideology of anti imperialism, a transfer of the moral turpitude of apartheid South Africa seamlessly to the state of Israel, and a far darker antipathy to a Jewish ethnic state that leans into the long and ignoble history of left wing antisemitism.
Where the left analysis, such as it is, is so inadequate is in its bending of inconvenient truths about the foundation and development of Israel into a sub-Trotskyist narrative of neo colonialism versus internationalism. It is simply untrue to characterise Israel as a neo-colonial tool of the US, which is the standard narrative of far left parties and the Stop The War Coalition: in fact American military support for Israel did not become significant until after the Six Day War in 1967, when Israel was attacked by six Arab nations committed to destroying it. Before then Israel had looked to France and Britain for support, with the USA wary of Israel as a disruptive force in the region. It is equally incorrect to describe Israel as a “European settler state”, characterising it as a projection of European land grabbing power into the Muslim world. This account demonstrates a failure to understand what European settler colonialism actually was and ignores the status of Israel as a Jewish homeland, which is its fundamental purpose. Indeed, it is impossible to understand why Israel behaves as it does without also understanding the Jewish historical experience of lethal antisemitism.
The Jewish contact with European Christian civilisation was characterised by, at best, a grudging tolerance, punctuated by occasional bursts of terrifying violence. Whether this was the burning alive of Jews in York in the twelfth century; the expulsion of Spain’s Jewish population in 1492; the vicious antisemitism of the early Reformation; the regular lethal pogroms in Eastern Europe or the culmination of anti-Jewish genocide in the Holocaust which, in a sick irony, took place in Germany, a country viewed by many Jews as an accepting refuge, the message appeared to be the same: European Christians hated Jews and frequently wanted them dead. The Holocaust, with its industrialised slaughter, removed all meaningful opposition to the establishment of a Jewish homeland: the German National Socialists had proved the Zionist case for them in the most graphic and horrendous manner. Getting away from Europe for many Jews in the late 1940s was not a matter of land grabbing or colonialism, it was a matter of survival. When the leadership of the new state of Israel said “never again”, it absolutely meant it.
Taken in an historical context, therefore, the Hamas attacks were simply a continuance of the centuries-old murderous assaults experienced by Jews in Europe. Israeli fear of physical extermination is hardly pacified by the fact that Hamas is probably the most antisemitic organisation the world has seen. Its founding charter calls not only for the eradication of the state of Israel, but seeks the physical liquidation of all Jews in Palestine and the wider Middle East. Netanyahu and his gang of nationalists and racists may have viewed Hamas as useful idiots to keep the West Bank PLO survival, Fatah, weak, but its radical Islamist ideology was always there in plain sight. The 7th October atrocities were simply the gruesome enactment of that nihilistic world view. From the Israeli perspective therefore calls for restraint when faced with an enemy as ideologically committed to the killing of Jews as the Nazis ever were, is a luxury. Does Israel care if its air and ground assault to dismantle Hamas kills thousands of civilians in the process? Not at all: from the Israeli perspective it’s them or us, the same reductive mindset as their enemies.
There is therefore an historical context to the systematic brutality of Israel’s dealings with the Palestinians, especially in Gaza. But just as its critics show little interest in the history of antisemitic persecution and death that directly led to the foundation of the Jewish homeland, so Israeli public discourse allows little or no concern for the Palestinians, a dispossessed people oppressed and murdered in their own land without even the restraint of common humanity when it comes to the inflicting of mass civilian casualties, including those of children. Whatever moral high ground Israel may have been able to claim after the psychotic Hamas attacks last month, this has been utterly undermined by its policy of collective punishment and war on non combatants. The war crimes inflicted by Israel on the people of Gaza in acts of rage and revenge have effectively put the country beyond the pale of moral acceptability. These actions infuriate international public opinion, radicalise another generation of Gazans and give succour to those who would see Israel wiped from the face of Palestine “from the river to the sea”. In this inferno of never ending grievance and hate, it is hard to find any hope. However, there is a fundamental truth that may yet, one day, see an end to this forever war. Both Palestinians and Israelis have one overwhelming urge in common: both wish to live in peace, dignity and security. If one day the two communities can rid themselves of their current calamitous leaderships, understand each other’s history and thereby glimpse the humanity of their enemies, the realisation may dawn that continued attempted mutual destruction provides no security at all.
