My heart belongs to those who fight for liberation

Some good reminders:

Neutrality is siding with the oppressor and silence equals violence.

The media lies. Wars are excused with propaganda.

Genocide is not the proportionate response to anything.

October 7th was not the beginning. It was not unwarranted. It was a response to decades long apartheid and imprisonment of Palestinians on their own land. Most of the Israeli deaths were directly from IDF fire. Israeli government does not care about their hostages. The people do, but their government does not. The purpose was meant as a hostage swap as Israel had illegally imprisoned 5000 Palestinians including children. That number had more than doubled. And the IDF are well know for their torture and mutilations of innocent hostages.

There are no innocent Israelis except the babies and children. No adult with sane mental facilities can excuse what has been happening.
