Ok so, I know I’ve never been political, but this is insane.
Why are American brands funding the Israel-Gaza war? Over 400,000 children under the age of 12 years old have been killed since 2014, so imagine that number now.
My little sister’s teacher literally said “Israel is fighting back because terrorists are hurting them” — that’s RACISM right there, because half of the people killed were kids who were trying to live a normal life, and they all suffer from trauma and other things.
People need to educate themselves first before saying stupid shit, because Israel was originally the land of Palestine (but then it was conquered by the Ottoman empire, and the British took control and it eventually became the “Land of Israel”), and people in Gaza are terrorists for fighting for their country?
I’m literally NEVER political, but it seriously pissed me off when my sister’s teacher said shit like that.
Sorry if this is too much to take in and if it seems like I’m trying to cause drama or whatever, but I just want the war to end. It’s never okay to fund wars that have young children (ages 4 months to 12 years) dying everyday.
Edit: Forgot to mention that hospitals and the homes of INNOCENT people are being bombed and raided daily… which is honestly depressing.
Edit 2: It’s also just genocide against Muslims at this point, bombing of schools and other “safe places”

Yeah, it’s very sad that Americans have been misled by the media to believe that the people in Gaza (most of which are under 15) are truly human animals deserving of being confined to an open air prison and being starved of food, water, medicine, and electricity. The lack of regard for human rights is astounding, especially from many people who claimed to support human rights and international laws when Russia invaded Ukraine.
Very few people in the West has been complaining about violence/human rights abuses occurring constantly against Palestinians for over half a century but believe that Israel is simply "defending itself" by killing innocent people and engaging in collective punishment. 
It’s honestly heartbreaking too, half of the people who died haven’t had a chance to do anything normal people can… even playing at the beach is forbidden.
did you know that 97% of water in Gaza was already toxic before this siege. now, they've stopped water completely and they've historically prevented Palestinians from accessing desalination/water purification technology that could solve these problems. the only way to describe it is genocide and ethnic cleansing meant to rid all of Gaza of Palestinians by terrorizing them and slowly poisoning/killing them.
i find it funny that they admitted to bombing the hospital but deleted the tweet where they did so. when they realized that they took their genocide a bit to fa to the point where even countries that support them like the US are questioning them, they try to blame the attack on Palestinians??? they've bombed 22 hospitals in a week and bombed this exact one before.
also, the united states only cares about freedom/human rights when its someone who benefits them or is against their enemies. that's why they support freedom of Ukrainians but not Palestinians. They claim to be the leaders of democracy in the world while being allied with Saudi Arabia (a dictatorship/monarchy that is inherently oppressive).
The United States just wants to see wars, which is why they’re funding them, like Ukraine-Russia and Israel-Gaza.
Bombing hospitals and schools is just evil, especially since a majority of the people in there are kids or people who need medical services.
Over 700 babies were killed, babies that couldn’t even defend themselves against armed soldiers…
And American brands here are doing nothing but funding genocide.

Palestine is only fighting for the land it once owned, imagine someone barges into your home and gives you 1/8th of it
