This is a bag of flour for one of the martyrs who died in the massacre a short while ago

There has been one of these massacres every single day since aid trucks first started coming into Northern Ghazzah.

Authorities have reported that 100 people were killed during this one, and 200 more were injured. Another will happen today, and 60 of these massacres have preceeded the one today. Do not stay silent about this.

In case you haven’t seen it yet: here’s a petition for Canada to stop arming Israel. https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Sign/e-4745

Here’s a proper link to the petition. And some additional details:

• This is not a random change.org petition that’s not going to be seen by anyone important - this is a petition authorized by a Canadian member of parliament that will be reviewed by the Canadian House of Commons.
• You must be a citizen or resident of Canada to sign.
• Petition closes on February 24th, 2024.

Rashida Tlaib has set up a petition to send to the White House to recognize and stop the ethnic cleansing and forced displacement happening in Gaza. If you’re a US citizen please sign. I have no illusions that this will change policy, but the public outcry against their actions must continue. We will not be distracted or discouraged from continuing to object to these humans rights violations.

Hi likes do not help this post, please reblog

Reminder that Palestinians in Gaza are being deliberately starved by Israel. Families in gaza are boiling plant leaves and eating them. They're also eating animals and birds food to stay alive. There are reported cases of kids and infants who died out of hunger and/ or cold. Starving people is part of genocide too. Remember how fast medicine was provided for the Israeli hostages, while Palestinians are starving for food and water and getting operations and amputations performed with no medication or anesthesia whatsoever.

There is only one definition for zionism: its manifestation as the illegitimate state of 'Israel' in from the 20th century to the 21st century.

Btw I think it's very important to reblog this, even if you don't have the time to watch the whole thing, just so someone else gets to watch it. There's a concerted effort by zionists and propagandists to try and change the literal definition of political zionism to something it's not. Since that's what this week's propaganda line is, make sure to reblog this. Don't let people feign ignorance.
