All of this is unforgivable. Our (The West’s) silence is loud and abominable but our voices in protest in our communities in Aotearoa New Zealand are with you. We will never forget. We send our deepest apologies and pray for a miracle. Free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Thank you for a penetrating article that exposes the horrors of daily Palestinian existence. Your equanimity is commendable.

"Birth, in Gaza, is a threat Israel answers with airstrikes." Birth of a Palestinian is considered a threat to Israel and, especially to Zionism. This is why Israel conducts an armed attack in a manner that is guaranteed to eliminate the future existence of a people. It's called genocide.

Ahmad,

first impressions about your article:

It dismantles the oppressor propaganda in the most comprehensible and perfectly documented way I’ve ever seen.

Your piece has a life and a humanity that I’m trying to absorb.

Write, write write please. I’ll support you.

If I can figure out how to email these to my senators and representatives I will. I will also probably end up on a list but so what. This is wrong.

Click on the half square with the up arrow, then click on MORE, the mail icon should appear then. You can also share it to every other social media that you use.

Thanks yet again for a very painful but necessary read. Every time I see my grandson I think of Palestinian children, just as sweet, just as innocent, but their lives constantly taken away by the mist evil of evil armies. How can anyone do this?

If and when these monsters wake up to what they have done, I hope the weight of it is too much for them to bear. I have no sympathy for them.

This is a very powerful and well-written article.

Continue to say their names. Thank you Ahmad for saying their names. I joined a Palestinian Youth group in protest a few months ago. They rolled out three fabric scrolls each 10’ long. On the scrolls were written the names of children murdered. I read them, as many as I could, to remember. Is that all I can do, is recite death? The zionist entity is making certain that no Palestinian baby grows to fulfillment. I’ve heard the entity’s people say a Palestinian child is a future terrorist. How deluded they are, deluded to evil.

Separately, The Guardian reports recent deadly airstrikes by Israel on schools sheltering displaced people in Gaza were part of a deliberate Israeli strategy that saw military planners loosen limits on strikes on places where large numbers of civilians are present. Israel has attacked six schools in recent months, killing over 120 people.

Using jets to kill defenseless civilians denied food, shelter and life. Do we Praise the killers???? Sad judaism. Sad usa. Disgrace.
