Man… Gaza is burning. Right now, people I know, families like mine, are trapped, scared, and running for their lives. Israel says it’s targeting Hamas, but it’s us, the civilians, paying the price. Homes are being destroyed, kids are terrified, and the streets are chaos.
This isn’t just news to me, it’s my reality. Every explosion, every death, every piece of rubble is part of our lives right now. People are fleeing south with whatever they can carry, selling what little they have just to survive. And the world… it’s mostly watching.
I’m from Gaza. This is my home, my people, my life—and seeing it called a “military operation” while families suffer breaks something inside me.

It’s horrific.
Humans are a cancer, we have developed and advanced technologically but we are still barbarians. There’s very little we can do about the human condition so we will continue to watch these disasters and tut tut, and click on the next story.
By most measures, such as number of humans killed in war or child mortality, human suffering in the modern era is less than it’s ever been. In the grand scheme of things, we have made the world a place with much more room for joy and love over the course of human civilisation.
