I almost have no more tears to shed. But once again they came rolling down my cheeks. The tragedy, the tragedy of each individual amongst the tens of thousands murdered. More often than not now there are tears of rage. Rage against the Israelis and an even greater rage against the United States, whose explicit granting of impunity to Israel - not to mention billions of Dollars of weapons - allows Israel to continue with this ongoing genocide.
I have been angry from Day one when Israel started bombing Gaza. Did they know where the hostages were being held. or care? Just collateral damage well worth the real estate they could finally get their greedy mitts on. The World Centro Kitchen assassinations were totally on purpose. Big Problem with this one: many many donors around the world are pissed off, including me. I donate monthly and almost forgot what it was for. This is MY money being used for a very good cause; the IDF says FU to all of us. I predict that this terrible loss of life (on top of ALL the Palestinian's lives!) will cost Israel. They were targeted just like the journalists have been targeted. The trucks were on a very open road, impossible to mistake them for Hamas freedom fighters.
Heartbroken. It's bad enough that my tax money is being used to finance a terrorist country but frankly it's personal that my donation to WCK is being basically shit on by Israel.
When a story of one person’s suffering is shared it makes the crisis so much more understood by outsiders. Understood in the heart and soul. I’m moved to tears. I won’t forget this child.
Yes, I too will never forget this child. So heartbreaking to read. This beautiful boy! There are no longer words today, only the beautiful image and story of young Amr, who will forever be in my heart. Thank you Chris for bringing him and his family to us to hold in the light and in our hearts. These are the personal stories and images we should be seeing daily in the U.S. news, left or right, and there are almost none. The media disappears, obliterates, them beneath images of bombs of buildings exploding, AI drones, numbers killed, the false thick toxic smoke of black and white, either/or profit driven propaganda, filling the mind and closing hearts. But these are the stories that could finally touch and awaken people and have the power to bring this genocide to an end!
Thank you again Chris, for your gift not only for speaking the hard truth week after week, but also for always interweaving the incredible preciousness of life, of one life like Amr's, like Julian Assange, as others, too, in these comments, are giving voice to, that keeps breaking our hearts open, keeping us fully Human in the face of such unimaginable suffering.
Anyone who still supports what Israel is currently doing, let alone what they have done to the Palestinians for 75+ years, are gruesome monsters with no sense of humanity. There really are no words for the ongoing massacre of innocent babies, children, women and men at the hands of the rabidly insane Israeli’s engaging in this massacre. Shame on anyone who supports this atrocity.
Yes, perhaps I should have said: Anyone and any country who still supports… Thank you for clarifying this as my post hopefully implied that but perhaps fell short in saying that. The USA along with many other countries are actively engaging in this genocide by sending weapons and support to allow this to go on with no end in sight. The apparent end being the entire annihilation of the Palestinians and the complete destruction of their land.
Israel is a Gangster Rogue Nation! Al Capone's St. Valentines Day Massacre mere child's play! The Godfather and Michael Corleone's "Masterful" cold blooded assassination of his rivals, a "Boy Scout" in comparison! The garroting murder of his brother in law pales in comparison to Begin's terrorism used on the 2 British soldiers kidnapped after the King David Hotel terror bombs! They were buried alive in a tomb for two weeks, brought out beaten tortured and strangled one after the other. Then hung in an orchard with bombs sewn into their bodies and surrounded by land mines, that badly wounded a British officer who cut them down! Hasbara PR and the Israeli Orwellian Memory Hole gaping wide to swallow them up whole! Sadly the 32,000 murdered so far and this boys being jammed in too! The West Bank Collective Punishment NEVER mentioned in the US, the bombing of the Iranian Embassy dismissed outright, the smear of UNRWA lie taken as truth. This is the REAL ISRAEL! A Nation of LIES!
Damn the democratic peoples of Israel for allowing this travesty. If the electorate can't stop it then Israel is no democracy and we have no business aiding them in any way, shape, or form. Damn the IDF and every member, active or reserve. Damn Israel, a disgraceful nation and a rogue state.
Amr’s sister is my neighbour in Ottawa, Canada. Our children attend the same local school and we love the family dearly. I am so thankful to see Chris do this article capturing the horror and atrocity that the Abdallah family has and is experiencing. The GoFundMe the siblings in Canada started to help the remaining family evacuate desperately needs more funds. I have linked it below and would be so grateful for anyone able to make a contribution!
Maybe Anthony Housefather could give the family a visit. Explaining the Most Moral Army in the world that he defends with UNQUESTIONING SUPPORT. Trudeau and Liberals in his riding should demand his resignation as a supporter for Israeli war crimes! Jews against Genocide like the IJV should demonstrate at all his public events, along side Palestinian's and Canadians with a conscience. Nothing will change without our outrage!
Let's go fund the whole population of Palestine to get out.....these are good people who will never find a life in that terrorist country. Israel has joined Germany as a country that has risen to butchery. Now, Germany is back in good graces...except for their insane support for this Nazi-like administration.....The human race: the Bad Animal. Anybody think "God is still proud of his "highest being" or his "chosen people"? what a joke.
Exactly as Zionist Fascists want! Are you confused or an Israeli Apologist by stealth? Blinken's first "visit" to Arab countries was to offer oodles of Benjamins to bribe them and commit them to the folly for Israel's "Final Solution"! You must hear the "Chosen People" baying to "Finish 48", and "Kahane was Right" No?

Amr’s family is trying to evacuate and needs more funds to get across to Egypt! His beautiful sister and her family are my neighbours in Ottawa, Canada. I am so thankful to see Chris do this article capturing the horror and atrocity that the Abdallah family has and is experiencing and their immense loss of beautiful Amr. The GoFundMe the siblings in Canada started to help the remaining family (mother, father and Amr’s two younger brothers) evacuate desperately needs more funds. I have linked it below and would be so grateful for anyone able to make a contribution!
Such a horrifying story. I am so sorry that our Palestinian brothers and sisters are going through such terror.. This is how my day starts - reading and listening to tragic stories that are just too much to bear. Our government is helping the Israelis kill children and adults. I feel helpless and anger against the Israelis and our empire managers. They should be the ones starving and running for cover. Thank you for posting this story.
I've been a member of Jewish Voice For Peace for years. I remember once 10,000 women marched in Israel against the inhumane treatment of Palestinians. I only know about it because I received photos from fellow members.
I predict many Jewish people will leave Israel. They will give up their religion. They won't want to have anything to do with this genocide. Western nations are complicit as "hey, weapons sales are up!" All purchased by endless tax dollars while our own citizens are homeless.
Your sentiment and aspiration for such an ending is commendable and any decent, humane person would wish it could occur. Sadly, the power dynamic is radically different. America backs the genocide and has not ceased to endorse apartheid as it did in S.A. There is no unified world pressure to end Israeli evil, Zionism is rooted in denial of equality and will never submit to it. This is far more apt to end in general war than negotiated, equitable peace. There will never be a merged, fair and stable Israel with both Zionists and Palestinians. Zionism can't permit it.
I almost have no more tears to shed. But once again they came rolling down my cheeks. The tragedy, the tragedy of each individual amongst the tens of thousands murdered. More often than not now there are tears of rage.

Another beautiful life snuffed out.

They were targeted just like the journalists have been targeted. The trucks were on a very open road, impossible to mistake them for Hamas freedom fighters.
Not only were they impossible to mistake, the World Centro Kitchen had given the Israeli's their exact coordinates and route ahead of time.
Heartbroken. It's bad enough that my tax money is being used to finance a terrorist country but frankly it's personal that my donation to WCK is being basically shit on by Israel.

and shame on any country abetting the genocide. . . Hmmmm

I am 75yrs old and wish with all my heart I had not lived this long to see this BRUTALIY and it's NOT stopping!
Politicians/Presidents/Prime Ministers talk, how much shame is on their heads and blood on their hands.
Alia
just now
I too wish I was not alive to witness so much suffering and to feel so helpless 🇵🇸💔🇵🇸
Chris, you never fail to tear my heart out.
God bless you!

I am ashamed to have been born in America.
There is a lesson in this. I'll try to share this with President Biden on Twitter.
