" Men in Gaza do cry.
When they lose their homes that they spend their
whole lives building, they cry
When they see their dreams and hopes getting destroyed, they cry.
When they realise how scary and uncertain their future is, they cry.
And because they are human beings, full of feelings and emotions, they cry."
This is an excerpt from a 35-year-old Palestinian's account of life in Gaza under siege.
Ziad has been writing for the Guardian about the realities of the Israeli bombardment, as he, his sister and their pets, flee their home in Gaza City in the hope of survival.

You can say this dumb shit all you want but you will never convince me that this is applicable to a nation state literally built on and its existence sustained through ethnic cleansing to this very day.
It is laughable that Israelis have the nerve to claim they oppose Netanyahu's government then turn around and send their kids to serve in the IDF while they kick it on top of depopulated Palestinian villages. Be serious.
It is Israeli settlers, not soldiers, that have been terrorising Palestinians and invading their villages, burning down their properties and destroying their crops as recently as this week. It was Israeli settlers, not soldiers, that burnt the Dawabsheh family to death in their home. It was Israeli settlers, not soldiers, who kidnapped and murdered 17 year old Abu Khdeir.
This is Israel's legacy, I'm not saying anything new.
