well, hello there!
The world is a beautiful place indeed, but bizarre too! In recent news, you people might have been following the whole terror by Israel on Palestine. I am sure you would know the horrendous news and incidents happening - well I am not there, but sure my mind is.
We're witnessing the harsh reality that has been going on for years in Palestine, where millions face constant threat and fear, while many of us enjoy the privilege of peace – those peaceful nights, three square meals, and a secure home.
The Harsh Reality in Palestine
For years, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has persisted. Well, not exactly a conflict, but rather the occupation by the Israeli government. The "settler colony" of Israel has brought suffering and insecurity to the Palestinian people. Their daily lives are marked by violence, uncertainty, and despair. Basic necessities like clean water, food, and a safe place to live are constantly under threat due to the ongoing crisis.
But let's face it, it's all too easy to forget that our peaceful lives aren't just the result of our hard work. They're also due to sheer luck - being born in a safe and prosperous part of the world. We don't have to live through the chaos of violence or wonder if our homes will be standing tomorrow. We've got the luxury of choice, complacency, and hope.

On Circulation of News
If you've been following the news closely, you may have encountered a lot of misleading information. Some false claims suggest that Hamas misfired missiles, but there's evidence indicating otherwise, suggesting that these missiles were launched by Israel, the 'Zionists Settler Colony.' During these challenging times, it's essential to rely on reputable sources and journalists.
As someone who studied journalism, I believe journalists must report what's happening objectively and not take sides. Unfortunately, we've observed instances of media, whether in the West or Indian media, presenting pro-Israel content rather than honest news.
Taking Action in Solidarity
While we might not be able to wave a magic wand and solve the genocide of Palestine by Israel, there are ways we can show support for the people who are suffering:
Learn and Understand: Before we can make a difference, we need to educate ourselves about the conflict. Dive into the history, the current situation, and the different sides of the story.
Support Those on the Ground: Many journalists are working tirelessly with trauma on the ground of Palestine to help the people dying, and getting bombed. Sharing their content, and talking about them can be a powerful way to make an impact.
Speak Up for Peace: Don't underestimate the power of your voice. You can raise awareness about the conflict and call for peaceful resolutions. Write to your representatives, join protests, and encourage dialogue.
Choose Fair Trade: Boycott products from Israel, or even related to Israel. It's a small step, but it makes sure your money is not used to fuel the missiles that kill innocents.
Stay Informed: Keep an eye on the latest news from the region. Share stories and info about the Palestinian struggle with your friends and family.
Pray: Whatever God you believe in, I am sure that preaches of humanity and not this genocidal massacre.
Remember, activism isn't just about sharing thoughts; it's also about sitting in silence and reflecting on our own actions. It's about ensuring that we don't unintentionally align ourselves with those who oppress. Oftentimes, oppressors aren't born vile. Their minds are conditioned to violence as a means of gaining power. So, it's on us to make sure our actions don't contribute to anything close to that cycle.
In the end, while we might not fully understand the horrors faced by the people of Palestine, we can do our part to help. By learning, supporting, speaking out, and being mindful of our actions, we can contribute to ending the violence and giving the Palestinian people the chance to experience the privilege of peace we often take for granted.
Let's not take our privilege of peace for granted. Together, we can make a difference, even if it's one small step at a time.
