"Dr Alaa al-Najjar, a paediatric specialist at al-Tahrir hospital within the Nasser Medical Complex, was treating victims of ongoing Israeli attacks across the strip on Friday when she was shocked to find her own children and husband brought into the hospital.

The children - the eldest aged 12 and the youngest just six months - were severely burned in the bombing."

    Not all of us do. Not all of us stand for genocide. There are lots of us speaking up, but the media does not elevate our voices. And when they do, people drown us out and call us fake Jews or self-hating jews for not supporting genocide.

    There is a concentrated effort to manufacture consent and drown out the Jewish anti Zionist movement. Israel itself is dependent on propagating antisemitism to make Jews feel unsafe so that they move there and keep settler colonialism alive. By falsely tying Judaism and the Jewish people to Zionism, their goal is furthered. Those of us that denounce Zionism do not at all let Israel represent us.
