It's a pretty familiar cycle in some ways, where there are daily transgressions against Palestinians in the West Bank and in Gaza, the checkpoints, the aggression on Masjid al-Aqsa, the settlements expanding, the stories of Palestinian death. And then you have rockets fired from Gaza, and that's when the Western press catches up and starts to cover it.

Israel responds with hellfire missiles, white phosphorus bombs, and the casualties are wildly disproportionate. And so I think that I wasn't surprised. I prayed for the people that I knew were going to bear the brunt of this outbreak, but the outbreak was predictable.

Yeah, go ahead.

Yeah, go ahead.

Yeah, go ahead.

Again, this was not surprising. This was very predictable. If you've been watching what's been unfolding, Before October 7th, 2021, Human Rights Watch puts out the report, Threshold Reached, Israel is an Apartheid State. Amnesty International 2022, The Crime of Apartheid, showing how all of the legal determinations of apartheid have been reached. the occupation is only getting more aggressive.

Shireen Abu Akleh, a Palestinian-American journalist, is shot dead in 2022 in front of the world. The United States says initially that if it is shown that Israel was complicit or that Israel carried out the execution, then there will be consequences.

Of course, once it was shown that Israel was indeed responsible for the bullet that killed Shireen Abu Akleh, the United States did absolutely nothing. Shireen's funeral was attacked. The pallbearers were beaten. Her casket almost fell. And again, the world is watching. The aggression against Worshippers in Al-Aqsa is getting worse.
