١-يبدو أنك تفكر بصواريخ عابرة للقارات. ال400 صاروخ التى أطلقت من #غزة أغلبها من صنع محلي ومجمل تكاليفها لا يتعدى 300,000 دولار وهو أقل بكثير من معاشك السنوي أخ نديم.
٢-أهل غزة لا يشكون من مجاعة فقيمة وجبة الإفطار في غزة أقل بكثير مما اعتدتم عليه في بيروت والرياض وأبو ظبي...
كنت أتمنى لو قامت واس بإعطاء خلفية بسيطة للقارىء السعودي خصيصا عن هذا الوفد الذي لا يشمل أي "قيادات" تمت بصلة للديانة المسيحية وللإنجيل المقدس، فهم بالأساس زمرة من المطبلين السياسيين لترامب يمثلون أقصى اليمين الأصولي الأمريكي المتصهين الذي لا يستحق دخول المملكة ولا لقاء ولي عهدها
#Racism
in
#Israel
is an established fact in no need of confirmation by
#Israeli_Jews
or supporters. As an Arab who lived there for 21-yrs, I personally endured daily racism, regardless of what members of Congress, progressive or otherwise, think!

Statement signed by 600 musicians declares: “Today it is essential that we stand with

people…”
It has been said that the old will die and the young will forget. On
#Nakba
Day, 75 years later, we
#Palestinians
remember our family roots & our homeland. We never forget!
Yours truly with my grandparents in Nazareth, Palestine.
@McFaul
By the same token, the
#Netanyahu
government, with all its components, is quite genocidal. “Its ideology is ultra-conservative. It has nothing in common at all with liberal or progressive values.”
This is the same country that the US Congress overwhelmingly declared on July 18 as neither racist nor an apartheid! Clearly, a video is worth a thousand words!
If

Security Council resolutions are no longer binding just to appease

Young Jewish settlers, a sample of Israel’s future leaders, displaying their peaceful intentions towards

with chants like: “death to the Arabs,” “may your village burn,” and “a jew is a soul, an Arab is a son of a bitch!”

تفاخر #ترامب في بداية حملته الإنتخابية عام 2016 أنه "يستطيع الوقوف وسط شارع 'پارك أڤنيو' ويطلق النار على شخص ما دون أن يخسر أصوات الناخبين." يبدو أن ترامب يطبق اليوم نفس المقولة على العالم العربي وكأنه يقول: لن أخسر أي تأييد لو قمت بإهانة كرامة الأمة العربية في عقر دارها!
استنتج ترامب أنه يمكنه أن يتصرف بالشؤون العربية كما يريد وأن يفعل ما شاء في خدمة إسرائيل، وأن لا يحسب للدول العربية أي حساب. ثمة تجارب مع أشخاص ودول وزعماء دول ساعدته في الوصول إلى هذا الاستنتاج.

#MyPalestinianSitty
Labibeh Srouji Jahshan (1893-1974). Born & died in Nazareth. Never left
#Palestine
. I loved her because she used to confuse the names of all her 44 grandchildren except mine. After all, I was named after her husband, Grandpa Khalil. My picture w/ both in 1951.
My interview with the Palestinian American doctor who walked out of a White House meeting with the president and vice president.
What President Biden said to him as he left:
#Palestine
is present here, in the streets, in stadiums and in markets. It is not by chance that the
#Israelis
are upset. Palestine is present in the minds of

youth from different countries.
بمباراة الارجنتين والمكسيك دخلت مع علم فلسطين، كل شوي يتوجه شخص وطلب يستعير العلم ويتصور معه.

Still no accountability for that massacre and many others committed subsequently by
#Israel
. By the way, not a whimper from the
#Christian_evangelical_right
in the
#US
in sympathy with the senseless murder of fellow Christians in
#Gaza
. They must be the children of a lesser
#God
!
Today, at the Church of Saint Porphyrius in Gaza, the church commemorated the six months since the murder of 17 innocent Christian Palestinians who were killed by an Israeli airstrike at the church compound on October 17th. In the photo, you can see a picture of the three kids of…
Israeli PM
#Netanyahu
said he would block the
#Biden
adm’s postwar plan to have the

take over
#Gaza
, the sharpest sign of
#Israeli
pushback against the US blueprint for administering the enclave after Israel’s invasion ends - The WSJ
On a single day, 1 June 2022, Israel demolished the homes and ruined the lives of five Palestinian families. 25 people, including 11 minors, lost their homes. In Masafer Yatta, four homes and two agricultural structures were demolished after a previous demolition last month. >
Crazy story in Chile: President Boric cancelled the credentials ceremony for the new Israeli ambassador last minute after getting an update on a Palestinian teenager who was killed in the West Bank. The Israeli ambassador was already at the Presidential Palace & was told to leave
It is in the interest of the Kingdom of
#SaudiArabia
to release the names of all the defendants in the
#Khashoggi
murder case, reveal the charges filed against them with full transparency, and allow international observers to attend the trials.
#Palestinians
in
#Gaza
don’t want your aid, they are asking for a
#ceasefire
to remain alive. What’s the use of
#humanitarian_aid
if they are killed by daily
#Israeli
shelling of their homes and shelters? They want to lead a normal life like you & me. Is this too much to ask for?
يكشف هذا الڤيديو مدى كراهية #إسرائيل للعرب و#المسلمين وكيف يُعلّمون الحقد لأطفالهم في مدارسهم. أود إهداء الڤيديو الى الأخوة العرب، وخصوصا في #الإمارات و#البحرين، المهووسين في التطبيع مع إسرائيل كي يعرفوا تماما ما يتوقعونه من الأجيال الإسرائيلية القادمة. بالتوفيق ...

Dear Khalil, you didn’t fail at all. You did what every one of us would have done to get his loved ones out of harm’s way and into safety. Please stay strong for the sake of your surviving family members and to honor Lara’s memory.
#Israeli
Finance Minister Bezalel
#Smotrich
is not only denying the existence of the
#Palestinian
people but also that of
#Jordan
& other Arab countries. Look at the map on the podium!
With neighbors like Smotrich, who needs enemies?
Jordan is broadly considered to be a key actor for regional peace and security. Yesterday the Israeli settler minister of finance spoke displaying a map annexing Palestine, parts of Syria, Lebanon and all of Jordan. This shouldn’t surprise anyone: It’s their ideology.

The moral of the story: If you’re

under the age of 12, do not pick up zaatar, akkoub, or any other wild herb or vegetable in
#Arab
land illegally occupied by
#Jewish
settlers from the only democracy in the
#MiddleEast

PS - And don’t you dare complain to the ICC!
Are Tom
#Barrack
and the other billionaire friends of
#Trump
invited to
#Bahrain
to invest some funds in regional development and peace or to enrich themselves? Based on their long record, I’ll vote “B”.
White House invites Trump's billionaire friends to Bahrain. I lost count of how many Middle East Marshall Plans came across my desk in 1990s. All of Tom Barrack's money and all the King's horses and men can't put this Humpty-Dumpty back together again.
لنضع موضوع التطبيع مع #إسرائيل وفرقها الرياضية
جانبا لدقيقة واحدة، هل يعرف الأخوة #الإماراتيون من هي ميري #ريغڤ وما هي طبيعة مواقفها العنصرية من العرب والمسلمين عامة؟ أم هذا لا يعنيهم؟
أذكر جميع الأخوة العرب أن من لا يحترم نفسه لا يستحق احترام الآخرين ولن يحظى به لفترة طويلة.

into oblivion over its alleged nuclear program are now lecturing us about “the beauty of Persian culture” & soliciting our prayers for the peace of Tehran!
لولوة #الخاطر مساعدة وزير الخارجية #القطري في مقابلة مع وكالة بلومبيرغ الأميركية: إن التطبيع مع #إسرائيل لا يمكن أن يكون هو الحل للصراع الإسرائيلي #الفلسطيني، وإنما الحل يكمن في تطبيق قرارات مجلس الأمن وفي منح #الفلسطينيين حقوقهم وإيجاد حل عادل لقضيتهم.
مفاجأة القرن:

لماذا اتخذ #ترامب قراره الإعتراف ب#القدس عاصمة ل#إسرائيل رغم "احتجاجات" العديد من حلفائه العرب؟
لأنه يعرف تماما حقيقة موقفهم وردود فعلهم الفارغة!
هذه اللقاءات الطارئة الخالية من أي بعد عملي هي للتضليل الداخلي فقط ولذلك أصبحت مضحكة للعالم أجمع!
The Covenant of Omar is a historical document that established religious coexistence. It was written by the Caliph Omar bin Al-Khattab for the people of Ilia (Jerusalem) when the Muslims conquered it in the year 16 AH & gave them absolute security over their churches & properties

Why don’t you check with your daddy, sister & brother in law before you retweet stupid statements like this one. A Trump is the last person entitled to complain about “oppressive” regimes!
If you’re surprised that 73.9 million Americans (22.3%) voted for
#Trump
on Nov 3, consider the fact that 7% of Americans (23.1 mil) believe chocolate milk comes from brown cows.
What if the roles were reversed: Imagine the outcry if the beating victim in this video were a white Christian girl and the attacking gang were Muslims!

74 years after the forceful dismantling of
#Palestine
, the
#Israeli
government is still playing the same game by toying with symbolic gestures to avoid making tough decisions: End the occupation, recognize
#Palestinian
national rights, & seek just peace.
Yemen was supposed to yield to overwhelming power. Qatar was supposed to collapse under siege. Iran was supposed to fold when faced with maximum economic pressure. Even the presentation of the economic portion of the Deal of the Century in Bahrain failed..
اقتراح للأخوة العرب والمسلمين الذين يدعون تأييدهم لفلسطين ومحبتهم للقدس:
لماذا لا تعقد جامعة الدول العربية ومنظمة المؤتمر الإسلامي ومجلس التعاون الخليجي ... مؤتمرا استثنائيا سريعا لإعلان تأييدهم والتزامهم بالقدس عاصمة للدولة الفلسطينية؟
ألا تستحق القدس هذا؟
Catholic Patriarch Michel Sabbah from
#Jerusalem
:
The peace of
#Israel
, the peace of Abraham, the peace of God, begins in
#Palestine
first, and with the
#Palestinians
only, and then extends to the neighbors and to the whole region. Israel and the world must understand this.
هل #امريكا مستعدة لخوض معركة مع #ايران دفاعا عن #دول_الخليج العربي؟
الجواب: لا، بدون شك!
ما الذي تطلبه واشنطن غير التطبيع مع #اسرائيل؟
الجواب: أسعار "معقولة" للنفط، الاستمرار في التعاون الأمني مع واشنطن وحماية مصالحها في المنطقة، التطبيع مع اسرائيل، التطبيع مع اسرائيل، التطبيع…
دول خليجية تطلب من امريكا اتفاق دفاعي ملزم يحميها من هجوم خارجي "ايراني" بحيث اذا قرر احمق في طهران غزو دولة خليجية كغزو صدام للكويت ستلتزم واشنطن بالرد العسكري. والسؤال هل امريكا مستعدة لخوض معركة مع ايران دفاعا عن دول الخليج العربي؟ وما الذي تطلبه واشنطن غير التطبيع مع اسرائيل
It is mind boggling that President
#Biden
, who came into office opposing everything
#Trump
stood for at home & abroad, is now basing his
#Middle_East
policy on ill-conceived notions & policies concocted by his predecessor like the so-called Abraham Accords
@ChrisVanHollen
Indeed, as Senator
#Van_Hollen
stated, what’s unfolding in
#Jerusalem
requires more than timid and insubstantial statements by the
#Biden
Administration. Diplomatic doublespeak will not help at this critical moment.
#Israel
has destroyed more than 192 mosques in the
#Gaza
Strip since Oct 7, including the historic 13th century
#Great_Omari_Mosque
. Yet, no significant outcry from the world community, including the 57 member countries of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC).
Israel destroyed the Great Omari Mosque in Gaza, one of the oldest and most historically significant structures in both Palestine and the broader Middle East.
