They don't want us to call what's happening in Gaza a genocide not because there's not been an official ruling but because these things don't get set in people's minds via official ruling. Instead it is the oral history that sets an event into place in mass consciousness.
Us calling it what it is - a genocide - means they can't wriggle out of it in years to come. They can't continue to call it a conflict or a war if we cement it in public consciousness as a genocide.
So don't tone down your language. Call it what it is. Make sure the history books know what happened and the genocides that took place in Palestine, Sudan, Congo.
RAFAH IS BEING BOMBED WHILE PEOPLES EYES ARE GLUED TO A FOOTBALL GAME. 1.5 MILLION PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE SLAUGHTERED IN THE ONE PLACE THEY WERE TOLD THEY'D BE SAFE. THIS IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK. 100+ PEOPLE ARE ALREADY DEAD. PLEASE TURN YOUR EYES AWAY FROM THE TV AND ONTO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING A MASS GENOCIDE. PLEASE SPEAK UP ABOUT THIS
The Israeli occupation targeted children playing football in the streets in an air strike.
You might remember him as Zico from @ismail.jood videos
What a beautiful heart he has. The world can take lessons from this child.

that’s how long they were supposed to have. Two weeks to run. Two weeks to hide. Two weeks to escape “evacuate” Rafah. And go where? I don’t know. But somewhere. And now they have no time left. Israel is bombing Arafat right now. There are over a MILLION people crammed into that city and if Israel has its way, none of them are making it out alive. So. This may be your last chance. If you haven’t spoken up until now, do it. Reblog this, go to the tags and reblog other posts. Share photos of Hind, of Rafah, of the humanitarian nightmare that is Gaza right now. Because they want your backs to be turned. They want you to worry about halftime shows and Taylor and Travis and all the other inconsequential things. So turn around and look them in the eyes and make them answer for what they’ve done. And don’t let them get away with it again.
They are very close! Those who can support and share for this family in Sudan right now, here is the link:
Also, post-editing me, I think there was a typo in the re-tweet -they're still $4K short -wishing all the best for this family!
A concentration camp. Israel is forcing displaced Palestinians into a concentration camp.
This is Nazi Israel.
