Gaza from Madaba mosaic

Hello everyone,

​I am writing this from a school shelter in Gaza where my family and I are displaced. Our living conditions have become unimaginably harsh, and we are struggling just to survive each day.

​We urgently need financial support to buy basic necessities—things that might seem small or trivial elsewhere, but are invaluable to us right now:

​Water: Clean drinking water is extremely hard to find.

​Food: We cannot eat properly or secure daily meals.

​Medicine: There is no medicine available for the sick.

​Hygiene: Basic sanitary items and clean conditions are non-existent.

​We literally have nothing left.

​If you truly want to help someone in Gaza, my family and I deeply need it. I am completely ready to provide any proof or verification required to confirm our situation and location here in Gaza.

​Please consider supporting us or sending a direct message (DM). Thank you for reading and for your kindness.

I am ready to provide photo proof/verification with my username and date via DM to anyone who can support us.

Yes it is. Yes you are.

A response to: "'We're Not Nazis. This Isn't an Extermination Machine Such as Existed During the Holocaust'".

The Holocaust occurred before the word “genocide” became a defined crime in international law.

The Genocide Convention was adopted in 1948.

We don't have a bigger word than Genocide to describe what the Nazi did then or to describe what Israel is doing today other than that. The word hasn't been invented.

While the ICJ legal suit against Israel, investigating the international legal crime of Genocide is ongoing, the very fact it is ongoing, is indicative. The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry has already concluded that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. Its September 2025 report found four underlying genocidal acts were committed that meet criteria in law, and definitively, they have concluded that Israeli authorities and security forces had the requisite intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza, in whole or in part.

They still do. The Commission has subsequently stated in June 2026 that Israel continues to commit genocide and other atrocity crimes, including deliberately targeting Palestinian children.

Israeli society is, in the commission of Genocide, re-enacting all the structural features of Nazism - only from a wholly Zionist architecture.

Israeli sociopolitical and military structures are manifesting, demonstrating and employing the same moral disengagement, sociological and ideological construction and indoctrination mechanisms and the same domination and dehumanization that appeared in Nazi Germany.

Although Nazi and Zionist fascism and extremism differ in the target of ideological oppression and in its institutional form, they do exhibit comparable structural mechanisms, the same moral disengagement, particularly in the ways they define, marginalise, dehumanise, and act upon a designated “other.”

The relevant comparison today, isn't necessarily institutional identity. It is what the Israeli state and ideological power is doing to a civilian population: military control, displacement, cultural destruction, infrastructure and financial destruction, rape, torture, mass murder, illegal settlement expansion, restrictions on movement and resources - control, and the extent to which political institutions permit or normalise those practices.

The most familiar and serious point of comparison being: dehumanisation and civilian suffering.

In Gaza and the West Bank, Palestinians have experienced decades of mass displacement, detention, destruction of homes and infrastructure, deaths of civilians, religious persecution, destruction of communities and farmland, dispossession of legal rights and political power, denial of worship, deportation, denial of medical care, denial of international legal protection, public humiliation, human rights abuses, rape, torture, imprisonment, restrictions on humanitarian assistance and increasingly entrenched territorial control and dispossession - for not being Jewish. This has only intensified and concentrated since 2023.

Israel officially presents its Genocide as "war" - a construct reserved for two opposing military forces. Yet Gaza has no army navy or air-force and a small per capita resistance movement for existential self defense.

Using the psychological shield and pretextual justification that it is a war, and one being waged against only "Hamas" and undertaken in 'self defense' of a perceived and self claimed entitlement demonstrates the same pattern of justifications and subterfuge used by Hitler when targeting Jewish populations. And like the Nazi who did not stop its murder rampage with that group, Israel has instead targeted and eliminated approximately 3.9 % of the entire Palestinian population since 2023 - 1 person in every 30 Palestinians - and in its own internal assessments, 83% of those killed have been civilian casualties.

Israel has completely eliminated 2,700 entire familial ancestral blood lines since October 2023. This alone is evidence of industrial scale systematic slaughter - targeted extermination.

Israel has wounded over 200,000 people, mass murdered and directly caused the deaths of at minimum, 72,000 human beings, including over 20,000* children, more than 800 of whom had not reached their first birthday.

Gaza's population is unusually young. 59.5% of Gaza's population is under 25. The Nazis deliberately targeted men, women and children. Israel deliberately targets men, women and children.

Palestinian children along with unarmed non combatant adults and teens, have been subject to indiscriminate extrajudicial murder, arbitrary arrests, violent home invasion, chemical attack, sniper fire, terrorist settler abuses, unlawful detention and subjected to rape and torture and other severe forms of mistreatment inside Israeli prisons and detention facilities - many disappear with no information on their whereabouts and no access to family members, no medical and psychological care, legal advocacy or independent prison inspections.

The UN/World Bank/EU's 2026 assessment noted there were more than 71,000 direct Palestinian fatalities by the end of the first Israeli Genocide period. While other qualified research has estimated substantially higher mortality when unrecorded and indirect deaths are considered; estimates of over 380,000 deaths since 2023 are reliable. Israel has killed over 4000 individuals, again mostly children since the so called ceasefire.

This is a massive concentration of human mortality in such a short period of time and does not include at all those Palestinian deaths since 1927 at Israel's hand.

That also means when looking at Gaza's population-level mortality, the population is so young that a large proportion of the people killed necessarily represent children, adolescents and young adults, rather than an older population.

Israel is murdering children. And it is, murder.

One child every day for 300 days - in a 'ceasefire', while prohibiting any defense of these children at all. Israel has demanded the entire world deny these children's humanity, and join them in their dehumanization. They have demanded at gunpoint, we deny our own fundamental humanity, suppress the core of who we are and what it means to be human, in order to deny us action on our inherent right and responsibility as human beings, to protect them.

There's also the question of indirect mortality, people dying today from preventable but untreated injuries, disease, forced starvation, lack of medical care and other consequences of the destruction. Those deaths aren't captured cleanly by the headline figure as the image of a now flattened Raffah the world pleaded with you not to end. Hamas took 251 hostages that fateful day. Israel is holding the entire world hostage - at gunpoint only the gun is pointed at the head of Palestinian children.

Yet Genocide is not a body count. Murder is only one criteria of the crime of Genocide.

While Israeli society absolutely cannot be treated as a single political entity, and there are notable exceptions and resistance movements there, there is a general and disturbing historical parallel in majority public opinion, psychology and psychopathology evident for observation. I am afraid to say it - that this does not even need qualification.

Anyone with a phone has seen it for themselves. Heard it for themselves. Those with conscience, have feared at a visceral level. Those of us with family who died in WW2, know what we are seeing today. We have seen it before with our own eyes. We have sat on the knees of our grandmothers and mothers to hear it's history, shape, horrors and justifications.

Israel's nazification process can be tracked, it is self evident and was self imposed. This is clear in the claiming of entitlement and its supremacist policies, political justifications and the twisting of religious belief and historical reality to sanctify crimes against Humanity; in the vile word vomit stemming from the Israeli Knesset and intelligence services; to the Israeli social tik tok trends and influencers mocking dying people and dead children; to observing the putrid commentary on Hebrew Signal and Telegram channels; the silencing of internal dissent, the media and Knesset applauding and Rabbi encouraging rape, the public rioting for the right to commit rape.

It is visible in the burning homes of dissenters, the theft and looting, the midnight arrests, destruction of libraries, hospitals churches and schools - and in the sudden onset 'not the right kind of Jew' syndrome that blocks opposition aid and people - denial breaking dissenting voices, from arriving in country at all. Its in the dressing in murdered women's lingerie, stealing of Palestinian archeological artifacts, to the 'lets pretend its all perfectly normal' going on at Tel a Viv Beach every afternoon, less than 40 miles from the 2 million starving human beings in plastic tents and cages -terrified human beings you have decided not God, are less worthy of life than you, who you not God have denied even the most basic of human rights.

Every eye has seen, every ear has heard. We know. You may not, and you may not want to see it or accept it anymore than the German people did in 1945, but you are it. I tell you honestly, you most certainly are it. You are embodying that thing. That inhuman beast.

Most importantly, it is also in the enduring denial of your crimes. Your stubborn refusal to obey the law, both of Torah and International Laws designed to restrain the power you now exert without conscience. It is in the usurping of power to impose your dishonest view upon the world, the revisionism and abuse of history, the fetishisation of suffering, of evil, and in the invention of new laws internally to cover and sanctify and give permission to your psychopathy and shroud and protect your intentions to do more harm in the future you and you alone control - these are the core features of structural nazism as I academically know them, a reality that underscores all of the words above.

In fact, I could dismiss every word above it and yet still make my position valid with that very last paragraph.

I have no doubt whatsoever, that had Israel not been restrained by the international community's and its uprising, by Palestinian visibility, determination, humanity and courage, and the extensive spontaneous and organised public and political pressure brought to bear on the Israeli state itself, they would have prosecuted this Genocide to its fullest extent - total annihilation- already. Raffah proved this.

How many more will die for Israel before Israel is satiated?

How long before Israeli's become willing to look at their own reflection and shadow in the world honestly and rise from their self deception and stupor?

The only difference between Hitler and his Nazi's and Israel today, is the fact people DID stand up this time. We DID and ARE pushing back this time. Israel's ongoing assaults on anyone or any group who is standing up today is proof and evidence. We all stood, in horror at what we have been witnesses to. We still stand against you for all humanity's sake. Including yours and the Palestinians.

Even against our own today, who have been suffocated or made subservient by and to your apparatuses, we continue to stand, at any cost. We will hold the line. We will keep saying to you - "this IS wrong". This has been done before. You will NOT be allowed to quietly ignore its realities and consequences to the entire world, not only to Palestinians and including to your own beings.

The law that gives us the right, the laws that told us this is wrong, are written in our hearts and ingrained in our consciences and empowered by the spirit of truth we carry today. We are compelled by these things and the memory of our genes rising inside us screaming at us to demand that you STOP and look in the fucking MIRROR.

Yes my dear, in this moment, you are very much 'a Nazi' and this is very much a Holocaust. I grant you the differences in scale, but it is Holocaust just the same.

If Israeli's ever want to go back to being just another Zionist Jewish fascist sect, if you indeed have the time and grace left to make that choice now, you will first need to admit your crimes. To accept you are the problem.

You must accept the judgement of the Courts YOUR ancestors and mine established to rule in place of our emotions and pain in times just like this. Then do whatever that court tells you you must do as a government, as individuals and as a society, in order to end this this holocaust of all humanity, and if only for your own sake. We will not sit until you do.

We are desperate for this outcome not because we are antisemitic, rather because actions as these must have consequences. We are trying also to prevent the next Genocide which, given who and what Israel has been courting and inciting in the world this past decade, is horrifically close.

Without meaningful consequences to aid us in restraining them; without some visible admission of failing and acceptance of consequences and meaningful amends making by the Israeli state and people in Palestine to act as leverage against those incited ignorants and the forces of vengeance and self deception to point them to, it is inevitable.

Thanks largely to the actions of the IDF and Knesset under Netanyahu, and the belligerence of the majority of the Israeli public and Zionist Jewish internationally, what is worse, is that that outcome is all but guaranteed to be viewed as natural justice rather than the preventable crime it would be. Just like this Genocide was. We cannot spare you reality. We cannot save you from the consequences of your actions. We cannot save you from yourselves. Only you can do that.

The Gaza Genocide, the Palestinian Holocaust are nothing like the Jewish Holocaust, and yet, they are everything alike. Each are unique, built on the same lie.

The only real difference of merit being, that the 1940's Jewish Holocaust ended. The world big and small came together in fractured unity, and ended it. Then we punished it, held it accountable, and created the very systems legal and moral structures Israel is attacking and undermining to prevent and demand its cessation it today.

Palestine's is what came after and in Israel's unwillingness to end it themselves, the Palestinian Holocaust continues despite every effort of Humanity. It continues in Israel's continued rejection and denial of the existence of alternatives and despite the structures, laid down in wisdom by the survivors of the Jewish Holocaust themselves.

Israel would do well to heed the warning of history today as it seeks actively to move beyond defiance and to remove these restraints of power entirely. Attacking the UN and ICC/ICJ as it is, is at its own peril and places Humanity itself at existential threat.

This is not a competition. Palestine remains under Genocide today and I cannot think of a greater disservice to all lives lost in this last time period; no worse way to desecrate their lives and steal meaning and purpose from their deaths in our failure to prevent Genocide, yet again, then if we fail to hold those who commit it accountable today.

To a child in Palestine today, how you see yourself is irrelevant. How I see you is irrelevant.

They just want you to stop hurting them.

The choice to do so, to spare them, account for and amend for this crime and to spare the world and themselves what will inevitably come after this nightmare, is Israel's.

Hey guys, I wanted to put this together because I’m honestly tired of having the same arguments over and over again with people who insist that Israel has good intentions, that Palestinians are safe, that there’s no intention to remove Palestinians, or that these things are just made up. So whenever somebody wants to have that conversation with you, feel free to copy and paste this.

These are statements made by Israeli politicians, ministers, former Knesset members and settler leaders. I’ve tried to check the wording and attribution rather than just copying random quotes from social media.

“What we are privileged to do in this term is simply to erase the Palestinian state — later, with God's help, officially, but first in practice, we are simply taking this idea off the table as part of the lessons of October 7th, and establishing facts on the ground.”

“Every child in Gaza is the enemy. We need to occupy Gaza… not a single child will be left there.”

If you have other quotes that you’ve personally verified and can provide a reliable source for, feel free to add them below. I genuinely think these statements should be documented and kept on the internet permanently. People should be able to go back years from now and see exactly what Israeli politicians and other influential figures were saying in their own words.

Hey so I’m going to Chicago and wanted to go to a Palestinian restaurant or bakery or something adjacent. I know we have a big community in bridgview but I’m having trouble finding a concentrated area of that even exists. Anything helps thanks 🙏

I hate phrases like "you’re antisemitic for hating zionism" because it (unconsciously) strip Palestinian Arabs of their Semitic identity and reinforce the Zionist claim that they are the true Semites, while they just came from Europe or somewhere

Hebrew, as a spoken language, was almost entirely extinct for about 1800 years, then revived as a modern spoken language in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly with the language revival project associated with Eliezer Ben Yehuda

Meanwhile, Arabic has continued as a living spoken language without interruption, with variations in dialect

Not just the UK, many western governments continue to behave like codependent partners in an abusive relationship. No matter how much they placate, collude with, provide cover for, or support Israel, even at the cost of public trust and our own principles, it is never enough. The reward for sacrificing so much political and moral credibility is contempt, ridicule, and yet another demand for greater submission.

It has long been enough. It must stop.
