I Spoke To Euronews Serbia About Gaza. Here’s My Interview

This week, I’ve spoken to Euronews Serbia about the vital context we need to understand on what’s happening in Gaza. I am also sharing all my recently filmed videos on this topic with you.

Gaza, Our Humanity, And Its Darkness

The hypocrisy surrounding the condemnation of the killings of civilians in Israel and Palestine is staggering. And honestly, this might be the biggest Exploding Head moment for me in a decade. It’s tough. And I know it’s tough for many. This post is for you.

Notice How Context Gets Weaponised When We Talk About Palestine

Don’t let the context of what’s been happening in Palestine be weaponised. Reject the efforts to be silenced — precisely because you were never silent about it.

The Threat to The Israeli Democracy Is Real – But The Israeli Democracy Isn’t

Massive protests have been happening in Israel for months against its governments plans to limit the power of its judiciary. In any democracy, that would be alarming. It IS alarming in Israel, too. But what else is?

If You’re Concerned for Ukrainian Civilians – And Civilians Everywhere – You Should Strongly Condemn The Use Of Cluster Bombs

No matter how much you want a certain war – like the war in Ukraine – to end, there are some weapons that you simply shouldn’t want to see used anywhere. Cluster bombs are an excellent example having littered multiple countries, and not allowing them to recover years – and sometimes decades – later. Here’s what you need to know about them.
