    Had the terrorist attack witnessed in Lebanon in the past 48hrs occurred in Europe, western media would be following victims, telling the story of a boy who lost an eye, a girl who lost her life... but these are only brown people, so they celebrate Israel's ingenuity. Repulsive.

    What is one supposed to do to stop the madness? People have protested, written letters, advocated, resigned, been fired, camped, lost degrees, filed for court ruling, demonstrated beyond any unreasonable doubt Israel's genocidal intent, and still, the killing machine is on.

    Respect! The Director of the NY Office of UN High Commissioner of Human Rights just resigned: “Once again, we are seeing a genocide unfolding before our eyes, and the Organization that we serve appears powerless to stop it.” Letter below-

    #Beirut now- Israel is inflicting gratuitous violence on an unarmed population. This is what the EU and the US are supporting, funding, arming, and calling self defense. No words.

    The panic now- if only you could see the fear, the panic, the traffic, the ambulances, the planes, the flares, the strikes, the sounds, the smells, the drones… Beirut.

    💔This is #Rafah as shared via telegram- How many scenes of #Nakba re-enacted will the Palestinians endure? #Cease_fire Now! #Accountability Now!

    The bombs raining on Beirut now are destroying our city- They, and the tanks on our borders are also the last nail in the coffin of any belief in a humanitarian human order, international law, and global justice. It is even scarier to imagine the future now than to hear the bombs

    Tonight's assassination in Beirut is another proof that Israel wants to escalate violence, provoke a regional war, and then "defend itself". The more impunity and cover it gets from US and western governments, the less safe the world will be for everyone. Is it so hard to see?

    The glee. The shameful glee. Disgusting glee. Anybody, anywhere, who rejoices when they see anyone else's home being destroyed, someone else's life gone- someone you don't even know... has lost the most precious of what makes us human. Tfeh.

    💔Tyre is Lebanon's mixed city more than any other, a model of public beaches accessible and practiced by all, culture and archeology intertwined with residential neighborhoods, important cultural assets above and below the sea-levels.

    If Israel’s agression on Baalbeck is not giving you the same chills you felt when ISIS attacked Palmyra, maybe it’s time for a racism check.

    Beirut, 2 strikes now. A building collapsed in a “safe” area. IAF will have killed dozens, it will be reported a “success”, western media will say “targeted”, the US will send more bombs to eliminate terrorism. We will all die as collateral damage for their racist hallucinations.

    Dear foreign reporters: There is no “chaos” today in Beirut, it is a terrible misrepresentation. There is *manufactured turmoil* to undermine the possibility of #accountability by thugs on behalf of experienced warlords who are accustomed to escape justice.

    The last time we saw in Lebanon so much happiness on the streets was in 2000, when the South was liberated. Today, it feels that people are really celebrating freedom from the sectarian ruling elite. May it last! #لبنان_ينتفص
