trigger warning. This is what Türkiye and Morocco are doing to street dogs. I used to think Türkiye was the most civilized country in the world because their citizenry lived well with street animals. But that has changed over the years and they are utterly barbaric. Morocco is doing the same in advance of the World Cup, supposedly to "clean up" their cities. If you oppose genocide in Gaza, you should oppose this genocide too. This world is too fucking cruel.

Israel is in the process of confiscating over 300 dunums (over 75 acres) of prime Jerusalem land that belonged solely to my great grandfather in order to expand Maale Adumim, a Jewish-only colony on Palestinian land. This is not the first time these jewish supremacist thieves have taken my family's property. This land is part of our family's heritage. It was my great grandfather's inheritance from his father, and it had been cultivated for centuries. My father, uncle, and cousins have no say in the matter, as we are considered "absentee" owners. First they forbid us from living in our homeland, then they invoke an obscure Ottoman law meant for the state to rescue abandoned property in order to steal private land for the exclusive use of imported foreign Jews who have zero familial connection to the land, or even region. We have a few cousins still in Palestine who are being coerced or forced into a de facto arrangement to transfer this invaluable land for pittance and none of us has the right to object. This is yet another example of how Jewish supremacy operates on a daily basis. I want to put here a glimpse of my great grandfather's story, shown in part of this video. He was beloved and revered in Jerusalem's el Tur village. Foreigners called him "the old man of Jerusalem." But the village just called him "Sidi," grandfather.

Dear Fam, I'm excited to tell you about my first children's book. I decided to self publish this one; so, for now, it's only available to buy from my website, and only in the US. There's a magic part of the moon called Al-Qassam, Palestinians will use its magic moondust to get free, and free the rest of the world too (from the people and their affiliates who stole Palestine and rob/oppress other countries). Because, the only life worth living, is a life in service of others.

trigger warning: zionism I'm sorry to share this, but I want to say over and over that "Israelis" are an exceptionally deranged society. This is the kind of sadistic Jewish supremacy that animates violence that no sane person can comprehend. you can't hate them enough. I know the tables will turn soon enough, and they will scream "holocaust" and "antisemitism". but we will remember.

The Sulala animal shelter held out as long as they could, but Israel's demonic ambitions reached their area in 2024. They had no way to transport all the dogs, so they left the gates open and opened every bag of food they had to sustain the dogs as long as possible. The dogs didn't bolt for the gates to run away, nor did they stay to eat all the food at their disposal. They chased the people who cared for them. This was the scene. Two of those dogs miraculously traveled over ten miles and found the shelter family. I suspect most of them have been killed or starved to death, just like the humans have been killed and starved. Saeed, his son Saed, and other family members are still caring for stray animals in Gaza, and have set up medical points for pets and working animals. But this scene still haunts them. It's a sense of failure. I feel it too. So many of us do. Failure to protect the most vulnerable in this world. There is still an entire society, besieged for twenty years, held in a concentration camp that doubled as a weapons testing laboratory for Jewish supremacists, then an extermination zone for the past three years. They have no real way to fight back. And we've all just watched. Day in and day out. People, young and old, burned alive, incinerated, evaporated by weapons we can't comprehend, starved, plagued with disease, terrorized, degraded, amputated, shredded, humiliated, destroyed.

remember when that Israeli "tourist" was caught and arrested in 2011 for setting fires in Patagonia that burned over 28,000 acres of pristine forest? and in 2014 when Chile again had to throw out more Israeli tourists for lighting fires in national parks? this news reports now says the an M26 IM hand grenade made in Israel may have started the current raging fires. I can't stop thinking about the nations of animals who call those forests home. millions of individual lives, families and babies that will never be counted. whoever started those fires did it for profit and greed.

watch this segment of the interview I did with Briahna Joy Gray, then watch the clip of Zohran Mamdani's speech yesterday. and tell me if you think he watched my interview with Briahna Joy Gray. It could be a coincidence that he uses the same historic figure in the exact interview I cited (among countless interviews) and made the same point about solidarity when it's unpopular.

I'm so sick of being disappointed by the likes of Cornel West, now supporting a damned color revolution instigated by the Mossad against the last standing truly sovereign state in West Asia because Israel can't bear to exist in a region where it does not control or subjugate every country around it. I don't know what happens to these people, but he should have just sat this one out. I used to respect him, but I will never take him seriously again.

among those murdered yesterday in Israel's bombing orgy was this gentle soul who fed and cared for strays in Beirut, along with all the animals he was caring for in his home. humanity has no choice but to dismantle this jewish supremacist cancer and wipe it off the map.

I'm excited to announce a forthcoming anthology, EVERY MOMENT IS A LIFE: GAZA IN THE TIME OF GENOCIDE, published by One Signal Publishers, and available for pre-order at any bookseller. This book was born from a series of eight writing workshops that I held in Gaza with young people under the auspices of the Culture & Free Thought Association (CFTA) in 2024. The collection comprises short stories from 18 talented individuals. Each is a small window into their lives as they struggle to survive a genocide. You'll read about waiting in line to use a shared bathroom, or to buy bread; about letting go a precious bed frame to have firewood; about childbirth, friendship, a cup of coffee by the sea, and delirium born of chaotic thoughts; about losing an aunt, rescuing clothes, mending a shoe, going from tent to tent, finding transportation, buying diapers, hiding books, and the terror of getting detained when you're deaf; about raising someone else's toddler; about family and a prayer to have something left. I'm grateful to my friend, renowned author Huzama Habayeb, who edited the Arabic originals once we compiled all the stories. I'm proud of each of the wonderful writers who contributed to the book. And I'm honored to play a part in ensuring that Palestinians in Gaza tell their own stories, in their own voices, with an understanding and intimacy that no one but they possess.
