قمتُ بجولة مساء أمس في أحد مراكز التسوق، وتجوّلت بين الناس، فوجدت الحركة طبيعية، والزحمة كما اعتدناها، والناس تتسوق للعيد وتعيش حياتها بكل راحة وطمأنينة. رأيت العائلات في المطاعم، والمقاهي ممتلئة، والوجوه مطمئنة. كما شاهدت ما يُنشر من مقاطع تُظهر الناس على الشواطئ وفي الأماكن العامة، يستمتعون بحياتهم بشكل طبيعي وآمن. هذه المشاهد ليست صدفة، بل هي نتيجة أمن راسخ وثقة حقيقية يعيشها كل من على هذه الأرض. والحقيقة التي يدركها كل من يعيش هنا، ويؤكدها الكثير من الأوروبيين والغربيين أنفسهم، سواء داخل الدولة أو خارجها، أن #الإمارات أصبحت اليوم من أكثر الدول أمناً واستقراراً، بل تتفوق في هذا الجانب على كثير من الدول المتقدمة. نحن نعيش في دولة يعرف أهلها والمقيمون فيها أن هناك من يسهر على أمنهم، وأن هذا الوطن محفوظ بإذن الله، بقيادته الحكيمة ومؤسساته القوية وأبنائه الأوفياء. هذه هي الإمارات المبروكة التي نعرفها: حياة طبيعية، أمن وأمان، وثقة لا تتزعزع. نحمد الله في كل لحظة، ومع كل فجر جديد، على هذه النعمة. اللهم أدمها علينا، واحفظ بلادنا من كل سوء.

Walking alone in a park in the UAE at night, something many women in Europe wouldn’t feel comfortable doing. Yet Western media portrays the UAE as unsafe. Meanwhile, the UK reports 150 knife-related crimes a day. As Brené Brown explains, ENVY often disguises itself as criticism.

سنعود أقوى وأكثر نجاحًا بإذن الله. هذا وطن تعلّمنا منه الصبر والقوة، وكل ما نمر به اليوم سيجعلنا أكثر تماسكًا وإصرارًا. سنبقى دائمًا صفًا واحدًا من أجل بلدنا، وسنعود أقوى وأكثر نجاحًا مما كنا. #دولة_الامارات_العربية_المتحده 🇦🇪

I will not speak to foreign media about the killing of Palestinian journalists. I will not sit on your global channels to be part of a segment you’ll forget by tomorrow. To you, we are just a headline — a tragedy to consume, not colleagues to defend. We are being hunted and killed in Gaza while you watch in silence. For two years, your fellow journalists here have been slaughtered. What did you do? Nothing. Or maybe it’s because we are Palestinian journalists — we don’t count as “real” colleagues in your eyes.

Palestinian journalists are the bravest on earth. They know their work is a death sentence as Israel openly hunts them, yet they do it out of duty to their people and defiance of a world that ignores their suffering—heroism western media can’t fathom

“When I entered Gaza the Israeli military had a rule: I was only allowed to bring in three kilos of food. As I was weighing out protein bars, trying to get under the limit, I said to my husband: ‘How sinister is this?’ I’m a humanitarian aid worker. Why would there even be a limit on food? I’ve worked in many places with extreme hunger, but what’s so jarring in this context is how cruel it is, how deliberate. I was in Gaza for two months; there’s no way to describe the horror of what’s happening. And I say this as a pediatric ICU doctor who sees children die as part of my work. Among our own staff we have doctors and nurses who are trying to treat patients while hungry, exhausted. They’re living in tents. Some of them have lost fifteen, twenty members of their families. In the hospital there are kids maimed by airstrikes: missing arms, missing legs, third degree burns. Often there’s not enough pain medication. But the children are not screaming about the pain, they’re screaming: ‘I’m hungry! I’m hungry!” I hate to only focus on the kids, because nobody should be starving. But the kids, it just haunts you in a different way. When my two months were finished, I didn’t want to leave. It’s a feeling I haven’t experienced in nearly twenty years of humanitarian assignments. But I felt ashamed. Ashamed to leave my Palestinian colleagues, who were some of the most beautiful and compassionate people that I’ve ever met. I was ashamed as an American, as a human being, that we’ve been unable to stop something that is so clearly a genocide. I remember when our bus pulled out of the buffer zone. Out the window on one side I could see Rafah, which was nothing but rubble. On the other side was lush, green Israel. When we exited the gate, the first thing I saw was a group of Israeli soldiers, sitting at a table, eating lunch. I’ve never felt so nauseous seeing a table full of food.” ------------------------------------------------------- Aqsa Durrani is a pediatric doctor and board member of Doctors Without Borders USA, with nearly twenty years of experience in humanitarian projects. During our interview Aqsa repeatedly expressed a desire to center the voices of her Palestinian colleagues. To this end I’ve spent the past week collecting stories from the Palestinian staff of Doctors Without Borders in Gaza. I will be sharing these stories over the next several days. I’m so grateful for the time that these people gave me; they were sleepless, hungry, traumatized, and often working 24-hour shifts. Because of the unreliable internet connection their images are sometimes grainy. Their words, however, will be crystal clear.

This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings. Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half. I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls. I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed. I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission. I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards. I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith. I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting. O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it. Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance. Anas Jamal Al-Sharif 06.04.2025 This is what our beloved Anas requested to be published upon his martyrdom.

Gisèle Pelicot graces the cover of vogue germany, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of this site/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next president is promoting a Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

Yet another exodus. Apocalyptic scene as Palestinians in Khan Younis are displaced yet again. This is what genocide in #Gaza looks like.

I could never give up on the dream of winning this gold medal, just as the people of Serbia have never given up on me. Together, we believed in the impossible. While I may be the one holding this medal, I want every Serbian to know that it belongs to all of us. Representing our nation is the greatest honor in the world. This medal, these moments, this life—none of it would have been possible without your unwavering support. This is because of you. This is for you. Hvala vam ❤️ Love, Nole

God bless this woman. She knows what community is all about. ❤️

@RoyalOmanPolice بعض العمانيين اتهموا مباشرة جنسية معينة دون مصدر رسمي .. وشخصوا الهجوم بأنه مجرد ثأر .. ونفوا المقاطع وقالوا بأنها ملفقة ومركبة رغم أنه لا يوجد نفي رسمي عن عدم صحيتها. الخلاصة: دفاعك عن وطنك لا يعني اتهام جنسية معينة وسرد قصص دون استناد بمصدر رسمي.

Finally! It's been said. The three gunmen involved in the mosque shooting in Muscat that killed 4 Pakistanis & an Indian were Omani after all. The amount of rubbish that was said by Omanis about "foreigners" in Oman, right after this incident was embarrassingly xenophobic.

Very cool that Malala is working alongside the former Secretary of State who supported the CIA drone wars that killed & maimed countless in Northern Pakistan, destroying access to education; a former SoS who is actively supporting the genocide in Gaza right now. Malala herself has been relatively muted on the devastation of the education system in Gaza. Whatever little she’s said, has been muted platitudes.

I don’t care how this comes across, but this article is a disturbing case study on the sociopathic nature of Israeli society. Finding arousal in the prospect of soldiers entering a concentration camp to massacre Palestinians and displace them further is utterly abhorrent.

Why are Israeli soldiers uploading photos of themselves inside with Palestinian detainees to their dating profiles? Beyond the "uniform effect," some experts say the violent militarism seen on dating apps is leading to disturbing trends in Israeli society haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

I’m here at the White House. Would it make a difference? I don’t know but I’m trying my best even if my work was always behind the cameras. It’s not about me anymore, it’s about stopping this genocide by whatever it costs. Don’t forget you all to keep calling for a ceasefire to stop the most documented genocide and ethnic cleansing. It’s enough @JoeBiden
