This deserves another re-post in light of the escalation in the West Bank. #Neverforget
On January 2, Netanyahu declared that: “Our problem is finding countries willing to absorb Gazans and we are working on it.”
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich corroborated: “encouraging voluntary immigration” because “two million people [in Gaza] wake up every morning with the desire to destroy the State of Israel.”
Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel told Zman that “voluntary migration is the best and most realistic program for the day after the fighting ends.”
Thus, Israel's official discourse adopted the term “voluntary migration”, even though we know that there is nothing “voluntary” about it, after all, bombing houses and hospitals, punishing the people collectively through starvation, pushing the people to the Egyptian border and other areas that were supposed to be safe, but in the end they are invaded and bombed like all the others were, among everything we have seen so far, there are no actions that give meaning to such a term (a term that should not even exist, just like the Terrorist and Illegitimate State of Isnotreal).
Because there's no enthusiasm from Western allies, Israeli diplomats are scouring the world in search of governments willing to welcome Palestinian refugees.
There are no effective actions that punish Isnotreal and/or bring some justice to Palestine, the USA always vetoes the votes (useless and which have already become jokes) for a ceasefire resolution and the northern countries issue mere notes of repudiation as if, like Canada, were not erasing Palestine from their official documents.
It is worth remembering that the Zionist movement in its beginnings considered transferring the world's Jews to the African continent, to establish their own state there, before choosing Palestine as their destination for colonialism. And as Theodor Herzl, father of Zionism, said: “Antisemites will become our most reliable friends, antisemitic countries our allies.”
Israel's Heritage Minister Amihai Eliyahu said on January 5 that settlers and soldiers “must find ways even more painful than death” to “get rid of” Gaza's Palestinians. It's not difficult to draw parallels with the N4z1 movements in Germany.

For reference! It is very hard to field requests via DM please try to use this post if you can manage to help. Though the OP is not vetting anymore if you are looking for help please try to be vetted through OP or similar Palestinian better as the rest of us really cannot tell.
I know I will personally be going through here for direct aid. I hope similar sources can be set up for Sudan and the Congo.

This is a collection of links to various posts concerning fundraisers I've vetted and instructions on how to submit fundraisers to me. These are primarily ones for Ghazzan families although some fundraisers for Sudanese families are also listed (I'm more familiar with my own country's politics and dialect and am more capable of vetting fundraisers for Palestinians as a result). Each post will have a time stamp indicating the latest date of update. And fundraisers will have colour-coded disclaimers according to the particularities of their case.
I know that people do not like clicking on links or navigating between posts, but please actually look through these posts and choose a fundraiser to donate to. Please.

I am sorry to whoever has been reaching out that I have not been on this app. I promise you I am working offline and supporting families directly, I will do my best to loop others but there is so much need.
Here in Gaza after a cruel war, We are a family of 15—10 adults and 5 children. Every day is a battle for survival. Food is scarce, humanitarian aid is not reaching us, and my little nieces and nephews go to bed hungry. Among them is my sister, who is deaf, and another sister who has a newborn baby. They, too, are suffering in this crisis, and I’m doing everything I can to protect and provide for them.
We need your support to save us and to help us after the destruction that surrounding us here in Gaza.
Please if you can't donate you can share it with your friends, family, and networks. Together, you can help me give my children hope, warmth, and sustenance in this critical time.🙏🙏🙏🍉💔
Miriam Makeba’s portrait greets and grounds you near the entry of Africa Fashion.
Makeba’s emergence as a singer on the global stage coincided with the emergence of an independent African continent. Her songs blended popular musical styles like Jazz with indigenous South African melodies, often incorporating Swahili, Xhosa, and Sotho lyrics. Well-known globally for her songs Pata Pata and Qongqothwane (the Click Song) Makeba’s music and self-fashioning embodied African liberation and identity.
For many Africans, her music gave voice to the dawn of a new independent era and the liberation struggles that remained. Affectionately referred to as Mama Africa by her legions of fans, Makeba came to embody a forward-looking Pan-Africanism and Black Power.
See this portrait of Makeba and hear her singular voice as part of the African Cultural Renaissance that welcomes you in #AfricaFashionBkM.
