This Is How A Wounded Palestinian, Who Was Shot By An Israeli Sniper Opposite Nasr Hospital In Gaza,

The video of IOF soldiers smoking and drinking coffee when they blow up a whole neighborhood in Gaza.

This is the cruelty of Israel and their citizens. They drink blood and enjoy it. They are butchers and murderers.

DON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE.

And history books will say,

There once was Israel,

A terrorist state,

It fought with children,

(This photo is from December 7th, 2017. 14 year old Fevzi El-Junidi was protesting Jerusalem "officially" being accepted as Israel's capital. More than 20 soldiers beat him up, blindfolded him, and arrested him.)

And it was afraid.

Israeli people are singing and dancing to the lyrics:

Gaza, Gaza, Gaza is a cemetery (×2)

There's no school in Gaza

Because there are no children left in Gaza

These are the ones left

They are an extinct species.

Israeli people mocking and celebrating the pain of Palestinians.

"Who does not have water, food and electricity?"

"Gaza!"

Because of the 4 day long ceasefire some press was finally able to get into the center of Gaza...

Brutality and cruelty is the only way to define this.

Tel Aviv Abu Kabir Institute Chief Pathologist Dr. Yehuda Hiss:

•We took Cornea, Skin, Heart Valves and Bones from the bodies of Palestinians.

•Everything was done informally and families were not asked for permission.

•Everything was known to the state.

•In another interview: He explained that doctors glued the patient's eyelids to hide the removal of his cornea.

You see, right? They openly say that we are taking cornea, skin, heart valves, bones, liver, kidneys and vital organs from the bodies of Palestinians.

A Rabbi arrested in America confessed in court that he sold kidneys brought from Israel for 160 thousand dollars in America.

Jews never donate organs, it is forbidden in Judaism. So how does Israel have the world's largest organ and skin bank? Do they grow these organs in farms? They take it from the bodies of Palestinians. Then they kill them and dispose of the bodies.

Israel is the world's largest organ trafficking centre.

And even though the whole world knows about it, they turn a blind eye.

Israel Took Organs of Dead Without Permission

A senior Israeli scientist has admitted that in the 1990s Israel routinely harvested organs from dead bodies without telling families. The r

A part from the interview with a woman Hamas had taken as a hostage, Yasmin Porat. She talks about how Hamas treated them, and how Israeli soldiers shot anyone without looking if they were soldiers or hostages. That's how much they care about the hostages.

The police attacked pro-Palestine protesters in Ohio State University. The West that had been occupying and oppressing many people around the world has turned on its own people in a heartbeat.

They have also deployed snipers at the university.

Someone else already corrected that Ibn al-Haytham didn't invent camera obscura but he was the first to understand the principle behind it and explain it. They even shared a link. He IS known as the father of modern optics. Sorry I made that one mistake and it was too late to edit when I noticed it. I mentioned it in the comment I made, you could find the person who corrected me from that comment and reach the link. And about Al-Khwarizmi, he did demonstrate completing the square to solve quadratic equations. Even the wikipedia page for "completing the square" specifically points him out.

I did my best to try and summarize these as best as I could and picked figures I thought would be the most interesting to read for people. I had to skip some scholars that I wanted to talk about and many things the scholars I mentioned did, to keep it simple and short.

And yeah, every civilization has its start, its peak, and its end. The Golden Age of Islam is no exception to that. There were great Muslim scholars who came after the Golden Age too (in the Ottoman Empire and other places), but not as many, because a place like Baghdad never came after that. It was one of the most populous cities, and when the Mongol Empire invaded, they slaughtered more than a million people. Libraries were burned, they tortured scholars to death. They demolished the dams on the Tigris and the Euphrates that the Abbasids had built up over a period of five centuries, depressing agriculture and slowing population and economic recovery for many centuries. Like obviously they couldn't just recover and keep doing maths. I think the loss of those libraries and that knowledge is one of the saddest losses in history.

There was also Al-Andalus alongside Baghdad, another incredible (almost unrivaled, Al-Andalus is genuinely fascinating) civilization. (711-1492) And when you consider how Europe built its riches by exploiting and occupying other countries, you gain another perspective on how it might've been more luxurious and comfortable for them without having to work as hard, in the simplest words.

And yes, Muslim polymaths were inspired by not only India but also Greece, Persia, Egypt, they translated many of their works too. Muslim scholars properly credited their predecessors and built upon what was already discovered, unlike Europe, which advanced thanks to the knowledge they got from Muslim scholars, yet a big majority of people don't know now. Some people in a subreddit might know these things but in general education/academia, they are not talked about. Many people genuinely don't know and they can't know if no one teaches them, and this is a good opportunity to do so.

Thanks for the additional information, this was fun. I quite like this post because of the information everyone has been sharing.

was talking to my mom about how white people ignore the contributions of poc to academia and I found myself saying the words "I bet those idiots think Louis Pasteur was the first to discover germ theory"

which admittedly sounded pretentious as fuck but I'm just so angry that so few people know about the academic advancements during the golden age of Islam.

Islamic doctors were washing their hands and equipment when Europeans were still shoving dirty ass hands into bullet wounds. ancient Indians were describing tiny organisms worsening illness that could travel from person to person before Greece and Rome even started theorizing that some illnesses could be transmitted

also, not related to germ theory, but during the golden age of Islam, they developed an early version of surgery on the cornea. as in the fucking eye. and they were successful

and what have white people contributed exactly?

please go research the golden age of Islamic academia. so many of us wouldn't be alive today if not for their discoveries

people ask sometimes how I can be proud to be Muslim. this is just one of many reasons

some sources to get you started:

PubMed Central (PMC)

Arabic Medicine in Literature

Google Books

A History of Medicine: Byzantine and Islamic medicine

but keep in mind, it wasn't just science and medicine! we contributed to literature and philosophy and mathematics and political theory and more!

maybe show us some damn respect

Released Israeli hostages talk about how Hamas treated them.

They excersized, played arm-wrestling, and the militants taught the children some new games. The militants even gave Ajam a nickname, Salsabil, sweet water that's mentioned in the Quran. They didn't even touch them, as the released hostages here put it "women are like queens to them, so they didn't touch us."

The massive difference between how they were treated by Hamas and how the Palestinians were treated by Israel tells everything. How every Palestinian came with injuries and horror stories to tell, next to the Israeli hostages who are refusing to meet with Netenyahu.
