Every year when the world commemorates the courage of Tank Man in China, I’m reminded of 14-year-old Tank Boy Fares Odeh, may he rest in power. His bravery in the face of Israel/i tanks barging into Gaza deeply inspired my generation. It ripped the fear out of our hearts. (1/8)

Egypt has been militarising Sinai since May. Now Jordan leaks it is willing to go to war to prevent displacement of Palestinian. I wouldn’t read as hyperbole as both countries know another Nakba of Palestinians into their states could break their fragile political systems. Black swans of 2025?

Give Palestinians Florida, but just as a winter holiday home, because we’d never leave Palestine. Meanwhile, open Rafah to volunteers and building-materials to help us rebuild fast.

Trump spent a decade campaigning against US troops abroad, only to be tricked by Kushner and Netanyahu to occupy Gaza. What Trump doesn’t realize is just as Israel failed to bend Gaza with 2X the explosive power of Hiroshima, the US would fail too - it’ll be another Vietnam.

Jordan and Egypt should call Trump’s bluff and say they’ll cancel camp David and peace agreements with Israel if any forcible transfer of Gazan’s or annexation happens. That will be a masterful play.

Palestinians and their allies will rebuild Gaza. Nobody is going anywhere - and those forced out are returning.

Greek, Italian and French govs allowed a war criminal wanted for the world’s most heinous crimes to travel through their air space. Netanyahu could’ve been arrested on his way to the US, he can still be arrested on his way back. It is time for max pressure.

Someone needs to get Netanyahu’s flight path to the US and back. Any nation he passes over that’s a member of the ICC can arrest him from the sky. Not doing so is complicity in his crimes.

The point Francesca is making here is powerful, and a sign of the moral high ground ingrained in many who are committed to solidarity with Palestinians. Unlike on the Israeli side where resources are abundant and supporters are more often then not paid, trained, and rewarded — standing up for Palestine is often pro-bono, politically and emotionally costly, and in many countries can harm your career or educational opportunities. US and Germany are key examples. The fact that so many have had the courage and moral backbone to speak up for Palestinian rights in the face of massive well-funded attacks is a sign of high-ethics, respect for human dignity and a deep faith in the inevitability of freedom. Francesca is a prime example of that — and there are many more like her who are unwilling to give in until justice and freedom and basic rights are achieved. The inability of oppressors to understand this unwavering commitment is one of their biggest weaknesses.

The tank platoon that put 350+ bullet into little Hind and her family could be in your city right now, having beers at your favorite bar as tourists. That is why you should treat every Israeli soldier who served in Gaza as a war criminal.

When a nation’s strategy is erasure and ethnic cleansing, as Israel’s was in Gaza, the steadfastness and return of indigenous inhabitants is a strategic victory. Below - the people of Gaza returning north. This is the victory Israel’s allies are trying to reverse through talk of expulsion.

There’s only one place on earth Palestinians in Gaza are willing to leave to. Only one place it is ethical for them to be sent to. Only one place where it is just to have them return. The original homes and villages they were displaced from in 1948.

Israel wouldn’t need an “Operation Iron Wall” in the West Bank, including shutting down every hamlet and city with 898 checkpoints, if Jabotinsky’s Iron wall was not crumbling.

Washington DC: Where tech companies can get away with making your little girls commit suicide… but be shutdown if they show your kids the truth about what Israel does to Palestinian children.

Mind you these men were part of the Gilboa prison break four years ago — a Shawshank redemption style escape from Israel’s highest security prison that inspired the Palestinian street. Their release is going to be a big symbolic morale boost.
