This will be my last drawing, I can no longer make art. I sit in front of a blank page everyday now, asking what can be made to pry open the hearts of humanity. I simply cannot do it anymore #childrenofwar by @accidentalhost

Hind Rajab (5 years old) looks around: No one is talking, and they are all slumped over. With her hands surely shaking, she takes the phone from between the fingers of her fifteen-year-old cousin Layan, who was hit while she was talking to the relief workers from the Red Crescent. Hind explains that “the others are dead or maybe they’re sleeping” and begs for help. “The tank is right next to me. It’s moving.Will you come to get me? I’m so afraid.”On the other end of the line, the aide-struggling to control her fear, because she knows the risk that Hind is facing- answers with affection, “Habibti” (Honey), and stays on the phone with her so she won’t be alone.After three hours on the phone-the time it took her colleagues from the Red Crescent to coordinate with the Israeli authorities to locate the car and get permission to rescue the little girl-the aide reassures Hind that two rescuers are on their way to help her. The recording of that heartrending con-versation, with the little girl’s life hanging by a thread, has been conserved for history and hopefully, one day, for the judges who will punish those responsible for the massacre in which Hind was killed by the Israeli army.Twelve days later, Hind’s lifeless body would be found in the car that was riddled with more than three hundred bullet holes, not tar from the ambulance that contained the dead bodies of her rescuers #childrenofwar #palestine🇵🇸 #freepalestine #zionism #drawing by @accidentalhost

Since October 7, 2023, Israeli authorities have held thousands of Palestinian children in military detention, with the total number of administrative detention cases (including both new and renewed orders) reaching into the hundreds. Currently, a record 180 Palestinian children are being held in administrative detention without charge or trial. #childrenofwar #palestine🇵🇸 #freepalestine #zionism by @accidentalhost

Starting from the late 1920s, Einstein again and again, unequivocally, expressed his point of view: “Should we be unable to find a way to honest cooperation and honest pacts with the Arabs, then we have learned absolutely nothing from our 2,000 years of suffering and will deserve our fate.” (To the Zionist leader, Chaim Weizmann,1929)And a few months before his death, in 1955, seven years after the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel (it is worthwhile to d it !!) Einstein wrote to an Israeliacquaintance: “The most important aspect of our [lsrael’s] policy must be our ever-present, manifest desire to institute complete equality for the Arab citizens living in our midst.... The attitude we adopt toward the Arab minority will provide the real test of our moral standards as a people.” #childrenofwar #einstein #einsteinquotes #zionism by @accidentalhost

“I trust to God that a Jewish state will come about; but it will come about not through political declarations, but by the sweat and blood of the Jewish people.... [The Balfour Declaration] is the golden key which unlocks the doors of Palestine and gives you the possibility to put all your efforts into the country.... We were asked to formulate our wishes. We said we desired to create in Palestine such conditions, political, economic and administrative, that as the country is developed, we can pour in a considerable number of immigrants, and finally establish such a society in Palestine that Palestine shall be as Jewish as England is English, or America is American... I hope that the Jewish frontiers of Palestine will be as great as Jewish energy for getting Palestine.” Chaim Weizmann 1918 #childrenofwar #palestine🇵🇸 #freepalestine by @accidentalhost

“What’s so horrifying about understanding that the entire Palestinian people is the enemy? Every war is between two peoples, and in every war the people who started the war, that whole people, is the enemy...They are all enemy combatants, and their blood shall be on all their heads. Now this also includes the mothers of the martyrs, who send them to hell with flowers and kisses. They should follow their sons, nothing would be more just. They should go, as should the physical homes in which they raised the snakes. Otherwise, more little snakes will be raised there.”- Ayelet Shaked, fmr. Minister of Justice & the Interior, on June 30, 2014 #childrenofwar #palestine🇵🇸 #zionism by @accidentalhost
