Jessie and I were honored with an award last night (World Beyond War). Recording here. For other amazing honored awardees last night. But for us as we noted in our talk, it is the extended family who make things happen. In our institute it is the volunteers and staff. The same night (yesterday) Zena and Sara did a brilliant presentation about our collective work. See video.

The pogroms continued here in the occupied areas. Just in the past 24 hours, several houses were burnt and four brothers shot in cold blood by rampaging colonial soldiers in Til, Nablus. And when one of fascist racist colonial settlers was killed by a resident defending himself and his land, the settlers aredoubled their pogroms. The genocide also goes on in the Gaza strip. Exanple: 16 Palestinians Killed in one day amid 'Routine' Killing of Gaza Children, and see this report on children.
These were my thoughts the day after 7 October 2023. Stil valid But things did not start in 2023.
I mentioned in previous emails how there is a global awaking to the horrors of the ongoing and in many ways accelerating genocide, ecocide, and ethnic cleansing here in Western Asia over the past few decades. I also cautioned that this global awakening is not happening fast enough or at the rate that is needed to stop the Palsestinian nakba (catastrophe) from becoming a global nakba. 8.5 million of us Palestinians are refugees or displacedand over 500,000 killed. And numbers were compounded by the other wars for Israel (Somalia, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq etc) totalling over 7 million needless deaths in the past four decades.
