In high-school and university it always disappointed me that Palestinians didn’t have enough representation and a platform in global media. During this war on Gazans, I’ve seen every conceivable human rights organization involved criticize Israel and report on its crimes. I’ve seen the CNN write detailed investigate reports about the victims of the Israeli terror state. I’ve seen world leaders demand a ceasefire… and I thought to myself, "surely this time things are better! we are in the media, countries support us (sometimes as people, sometimes as governments, sometimes as both)… now we have all these amazing Palestinian voices speaking on television and in university lectures and media and film festivals… surely this time things will change."

But no, it turned out to worse than the Nakba. 🙂 Turns out lack of representation and media coverage wasn’t the only issue plaguing Palestinians.

So tell me, what is it that makes Palestinians so unimportant in the eyes of Biden? So unworthy of human rights?

Reminds me of that into to that song by DAM (YT, Piped, lyrics in English):

وين ما اروح باشوف حدود ساجنه الأنسانيه

ليه أطفال العالم حره وأنا ما الي حريه ؟

“Wherever I look, I see borders that jail humanity. Why are all the children of the world free but there is no freedom for me?”
