We know that the settler colony is still attacking Ghazzah. Famine is ongoing. Aid is restricted. Babies and children dies from malnutrition. Then we have alarming news about Lebanon and Iran!
How much longer can this go on?

Tomorrow will be Eid for those who observe. This includes the people in Ghazzah. Expect they will not be decorating their homes, inviting their loved ones over and celebrating the holiday together. They are surviving an accelerated genocide for nearly 3 years.
3 years of displacement, famine, and violence.
How much longer can this go on?

78 years of forced displacement, restricted aid and unimaginable violence against the Palestinians. It is still ongoing to this day. How much longer can this go on? Until we reach the 79th year? The 80th?
At the same time, The Toronto Palestine Film Festival hosted an event to commemorate the Nakba. It starts with a documentary directed by Mai Masri called, "Frontiers of Dreams and Fears". The film is about two girls, Manar and Mona, who develop a friendship by exchanging letters after Southern Lebanon is liberated from the Zionist occupation in the 2000. Even though they are separated by the border, a wired barricade, their love and companionship is felt in their words across papers. 26 years later, Lebanon is under attack by the Zionist occupation. [BBC reports: "Lebanon's health ministry says the number of people killed in the country by ['Israeli'] strikes during the conflict between ['Israel'] and Hezbollah, which escalated at the beginning of March, has surpassed 3,000. It put the death toll at 3,020 on Monday, a grim milestone in the fighting that shows no sign of abating despite a fragile ceasefire"].
As the film ends, a keynote speaker is present. It is no other than Mouin Rabbani: He is a a researcher, analyst, and commentator specializing in Palestinian affairs, the Arab-['Israeli'] conflict, and contemporary ['Middle East'] issues at the ['Middle East'] at the Council on Global Affairs. He starts with a speech about the Nakba, detailing the horrors Palestinians have gone through, then finishes with a reassurance of their resilience and resistance.
This makes me think about the many people risking their lives to fight against oppression and occupation! They are throwing rocks at tanks and snipers, boycotting products and protesting in the streets and fighting for their land ownership in courts. It begs the question: What are we doing in the West? We should join our Palestinian and Lebanese comrades, of course! Continue to boycott, donate and protest!

But Palestinians are surviving the genocide rather than celebrating with their friends and families or performing Hajj (pilgrimage) [Al Jazeera reports the following: "Children perform ‘mini Hajj’ in Gaza as Israel blocks pilgrims. A school in Gaza City has taught its children how to perform the entire Hajj, as Palestinians living in the enclave are forced to miss the pilgrimage for a third year due to Israel’s travel blockade"].

I don't know what the fuck to write at this point of time.
How many times do I have to write about the settler colony committing the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and violating ceasefire? [Al Jazeera reports: "An "Israeli" air attack on Gaza City has killed the son of Khalil al-Hayya, the head of Hamas’s political bureau and the Palestinian group’s top negotiator in indirect talks with "Israel"]. How many times do I have to say that Palestinians are surviving accelerated famine and violence? Especially pregnant women and newborn babies? How many times do I have to mention flotilla ships carrying essential aid to break through the blockade are intercepted again? [Saif Abukeshek and Thiago Ávila are illegally detained!]

Ramadan has ended. Eid has ended. But the accelerated genocide continues in Ghazzah. Lebanon and Iran are still under attack. How much longer can this go on?

We are approaching the 3rd year mark of the accelerated genocide. The settler colony is inflicting famine and violence against the Palestinians to this day. In fact, as I write this sentence, Al Jazeera reports the following: "['Israeli'] forces have killed 12 Palestinians, including six police officers, in multiple attacks across Gaza. Despite a six-month long ceasefire, ['Israeli'] forces are committing daily violations that have killed almost 1,000 people".
How much longer can this go on?
