Two months today since this book came out. And I’ve struggled to take a picture, to put up posts. What can one possibly say? What is there left to say? Each time I see this book reaching @Maisara_Alrayes’s friends, his loved ones, his only surviving family – his sister, and his

I’ve reported 18 wars over 35 years. I’ve been shot at, kidnapped, threatened, nearly raped. I’ve lost friends from Sarajevo to Syria. I thought I’d seen the worst of humanity. I was wrong. Nothing compares to Gaza — or the complicity letting it happen. #GazaGenocide #WarCrimes

Honest Q for Western 'journalists' still silent: have you no shame? A 28 year old young man gives his life in pursuit of journalistic truth. He spent his last two years reporting on the genocide of his people, one you've manufactured consent for. How do you sleep at night?

In Palestine, journalists are murdered for telling the truth. In the West, 'journalists' are promoted for obscuring it.

I’m sitting on a public patio, crying for a man I never met. @AnasAlSharif0 carried Gaza’s truth to the world with courage that terrified Israel. They killed him for it. My heart is breaking.

Tonight Israel murdered the bravest journalistic hero in Gaza, Anas Al-Sharif. For nearly two straight years, he documented the genocide of his people with courage & principle. Israel put him on a hit list because of his voice. Shame on this world & all who were silent.

Absolutely fucking devastating. The screams outside Al Shifa hospital as Israel assassinates Aljazeera reporter Anas al Sharif. We will never forgive western journalists who remained silent as they murder our colleagues in Gaza.

Israel just killed Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif @AnasAlSharif0, a man whose only weapon was the truth he captured through his lens. Anas and over 200 journalists were witnesses to a genocide Israel is desperate to hide from the world. May Allah have mercy on him and every victim.

10th Muharram, 61 AH, Karbala The sun blazed over Karbala. From the tents, a veiled woman ran, grieving, resolute, a witness to her brother's martyrdom. She stood on a small hill now called Tilla-e-Zainab. There she stood, watching her brother Imam Hussain fall… The last light

Come ashoor or 10th Muharram and Sham-e Gariban majlises are held across the world. While the hadith in the majlis, though centring around the events of the 10th of Ashur in Karbala, will differ according to the Maulana reciting it, one thing remains standard: every majlis will

On Ashura, prayers with the martyrs of Karbala who stood against the tyranny of that age and laid an example for generations to come. Prayers also for the brave people of Gaza who are standing up to the Yazid and Pharaoh of this age.

The United States government used to pay mercenaries $200 for every native American they killed. This is a continuation of a formative and proud American tradition. Settlers and their progeny have genocide in their genes.

Does Israel realize it has created billions of people around the world who will spend the next 5 decades of their lives committed to eradicating Zionism & ensuring Israeli politicians, commanding officers & media propagandists be held accountable for the genocide?
