Forced starvation, rape, and being set upon by dogs.
In addition to the daily murder by bombs and inhumane conditions in Gaza, this is what Palestinian children are enduring under Israel’s brutal military occupation.
These are just some of the horrors of this genocide and of Israel’s illegal occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. Tragically, not much is new. The different formats of violence have been documented for years by organisations you will find in references at the end of this article (back in 2022, I, too, recorded an episode on Israeli policies that intentionally harm Palestinian children).
In my video, I talk about just a fraction of what supremacy, fascism, and complete impunity look like on the bodies of Palestinian children.
You can also find it as a podcast episode below.
If you’re a Lithuanian speaker, I have another video, in Lithuanian, here.
See the Save the Children UK statement here.
UNICEF’s report here regarding 50,000 children killed or injured in Gaza.
Israel Katz’s announcement of building a ‘humanitarian city’ in Gaza here.
My episode on Israel being blacklisted by the UN for intentionally harming children in conflict.
Most importantly, find and support the work of Defence for Children International – Palestine here.
As always: stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.

International Law is No More, Fascism is Here: How Will You Choose to Operate in This Reality?
Fascism has never been a thing of the past; now, to disregard it means to disengage from reality. As international law has crumbled, Israel is still destroying Gaza, and masked agents are snatching people of the streets in the U.S., I invite you to ask yourself how you choose to show up in this reality.
As the US Attacks Venezuela, Notice Who Bows Down to Empires and Spreads Their Propaganda
You would think we would be beyond cheering military aggression by empires. Yet be aware of this cheering, as well as of consciously erasing international law considerations in the coverage of recent U.S. attacks on Venezuela.
A Visual Summary of What Our Governments Have Allowed Israel to Do to International Law
When the UN premises are raided and the UN flag is replaced by the Israeli flag, it’s not even international news. It’s not a scandal. Because of the impunity our governments continue to generously gift to Israel (which in turn has rendered international law itself completely battered).
