Another Day Another Massacre

After the defeat of the Arab forces in 1948, almost a million Palestinian Arabs fled their houses, villages, and cities in fear of the conquering Israelis. This exodus was a trail of tears. The Palestinians called the tragedy Nakba.

The victors showed no mercy during the ethnic cleansing of the region.

The refugees never were allowed to go home.

This week tens of thousands of protestors gathered in Gaza to protest the injustice.

The IDF or Israeli Defense Force responded by shooting live rounds into the crowds.

Hundreds have been killed by the IDF hiding behind dirt berms.

Safe from harm.

They shoot men.

They shoot women.

They shoot the press.

And they kill children.

like the Nazis of Babi Yar.

Meanwhile the Trump regime celebrates the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem.

Tanks.

Versus a boy throwing a stone.

Shame.

Peace At All Costs - Gaza

After the Deir Yassin massacre by the Irgun, Palestians fled the violence of the 1948 War. The refugees numbered over 800,000. This diaspora was never allowed to return by Israeli authorities and the frced exs has been called Nakba or the 'Disaster'.

Camps sprouted up all around the partitioned lands.

The exiles lived in squalor.

The ethnic cleansing has reduced the Arabs land to almost nothing and every year Palestinians demonstrate against the occupation every year at this time.

This week thousands of protestors marched on no-go zone in Gaza.

The IDF pitched up behind dirt berms and shot into the crowd, killing 18 and wounding almost 900.

Men, women, and children.

Sniper bait.

All to save Netanyahu from prosecution for corruption.

Free Palestine.

Free the world.

Free the balloons.
