"I’m personally a Holocaust survivor as an infant, I barely survived.
My grandparents were killed in Aushwitz and most of my extended family were killed.
I became a Zionist; this dream of the Jewish people resurrected in their historical homeland and the barbed wire of Aushwitz being replaced by the boundaries of a Jewish state with a powerful army…and then I found out that it wasn’t exactly like that, that in order to make this Jewish dream a reality we had to visit a nightmare on the local population.
There’s no way you could have ever created a Jewish state without oppressing and expelling the local population. Jewish Israeli historians have shown without a doubt that the expulsion of Palestinians was persistent, pervasive, cruel, murderous and with deliberate intent - that’s what’s called the 'Nakba' in Arabic; the 'disaster' or the 'catastrophe'.
There’s a law that you cannot deny the Holocaust, but in Israel you’re not allowed to mention the Nakba, even though it’s at the very basis of the foundation of Israel.
I visited the Occupied Territories (West Bank) during the first intifada. I cried every day for two weeks at what I saw; the brutality of the occupation, the petty harassment, the murderousness of it, the cutting down of Palestinian olive groves, the denial of water rights, the humiliations...and this went on, and now it’s much worse than it was then. It’s the longest ethnic cleansing operation in the 20th and 21st century.
I could land in Tel Aviv tomorrow and demand citizenship but my Palestinian friend in Vancouver, who was born in Jerusalem, can’t even visit! So then you have these miserable people packed into this, horrible…people call it an 'outdoor prison', which is what it is. You don’t have to support Hamas policies to stand up for Palestinian rights, that’s a complete falsity.
You think the worse thing you can say about Hamas, multiply it by a thousand times, and it still will not meet the Israeli repression and killing and dispossession of Palestinians.
And 'anybody who criticises Israel is an anti-Semite' is simply an egregious attempt to intimidate good non-Jews who are willing to stand up for what is true."
Hello guys i have good news and bad news.

All around the world, seabirds provide a critical link between land and sea. On Hawai’i, ecologists are working to protect two vital shearwater species that helped life first take hold across these islands.
While seabirds predominantly reside at sea, they return to land to breed and raise their young. In this process, they deposit mineral-rich nutrients that sustain the whole island ecosystem. But the arrival of human settlers introduced non-native predators and extensive development. Together, these compromised many seabird habitats — and decimated their populations. Several species are now teetering on the brink of extinction.
The Maui Nui Seabird Recovery Project engages a multifaceted approach to protect these crucial birds: eliminating invasive predators, restoring native plants, and monitoring burrows for fledgling success. In one instance, they have established a dedicated sanctuary complete with artificial burrows, bird-shaped decoys, and audio speakers to attract one highly endangered shearwater species. Through their efforts, the team gives seabirds a chance to raise the next generation on the very islands they helped bring to life.

Hello, it's me again writing to you on behalf of @amalashuor situation and how heartbroken she is about her baby to start learning how to walk and talk in the ongoing genocide. Her baby's name is Maryam, and she is one year and 9 months old.
Amal is worried about the dire situation in which her little daughter is growing up, and unfortunately, with the rise in food prices and the difficulty of accessing water, the impact on Maryam's health is very clear. Maryam's favorite food was fruit purée, and since the beginning of the war, her parents have not been able to obtain it on a daily basis, given that the price of a kilo of fruit is $15 and the price of milk and diapers is $500 per month, so you can imagine that the priority is alwaysgoingtobethat With the approach of winter, Amal hopes that we will extend a helping hand to her and help her get a place to rent to shelter them from upcoming gaza winter please donate and reblog 🙏 ❤️

I have always felt not quite the same as others for no identifiable reason. i don't want to be found out. came close a few days ago when my brother saw me smiling when my mother was choking. i love my mum, i don't know why i was smiling, something felt good.
Honestly the best thing for wildlife is to learn to appreciate the beauty of last years dead stems and leaves in their own right. But if you MUST clean up your garden, wait until cherries pears and apples are done blooming and temperatures are not in danger of dipping below 50 degrees. Cut old stems to 12", leave leaves or rake them into beds where they can mulch naturally!
