Dear Western World and Media…. You got it wrong!

I am reblogging a TikTok that was sent to me on whatsapp a few days ago because I think everyone needs to hear these words!!

The Western world and media have the coverage of the situation in Gaza and Palestine all wrong. The People of Palestine have been oppressed and under an illegal, genocidal apartheid regime for decades.
Please remember that as you judge them for being less than human.

“You don’t have to support Hamas policies to stand up for Palestinian rights.” – Gabor Mate


I want to be clear- I do not support or condone the behaviour of Hamas. I do however, support the innocent Palestinians who have to beg for water, for food, for the right to be educated and to pray.

Would you tolerate that? Would you tolerate your children being imprisoned, without trials, without access to representation, not being able to see their families for months at a time? Their only charge? Being Palestinian.

I watched a video on YouTube wherein a mother in Palestine refused to go to the market to buy food because she said “if we leave our houses, when we come back, ‘they have already moved in.’ ” They being the illegal Israeli occupiers. These “settlers” are committing crimes under International laws. And yet, are never held to account.

Tell me you would tolerate living like that.

And then tell me where your moral indignation and outrage are.
