Do you believe
In Adam and Eve
Did they conceive
All of humanity?

Oh, no, Noah

(Brother and sister:)
If you believe in God
(We are related)

Together our blood
Survived the flood
Able to survive
To stay alive

Oh, no, Noah

Oh, no, Noah

ABOUT THE SONG
Adam and Eve: The Starting Point
Adam and Eve are considered the first humans in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic tradition, making them the progenitors of all human lineage. However, it is important to note that Adam and Eve are not viewed as the origin of all humans in every belief system or cultural tradition; they represent the starting point specifically within the framework of the Abrahamic faiths, not for all of humanity universally.
All notable biblical and Quranic figures, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, trace their ancestry back to Adam and Eve.
According to Genesis, humanity is said to descend from Adam and Eve through their children, notably through Seth after the death of Abel. However, it is important to recognize that the Christian Bible largely erases or ignores the presence and roles of many women in the early narratives.
One significant figure excluded from the canonical text is Lilith, who, according to Jewish folklore and some early texts, was Adam’s first wife before Eve. Lilith is said to have left Adam due to his attempts to dominate her, refusing to return to Eden and choosing exile rather than subjugation. Legends claim that Lilith birthed thousands of offspring, some of whom are described as demonic or as night spirits, reflecting the patriarchal fears of an independent female figure outside male control.
These stories of Lilith highlight the erasure and demonization of powerful feminine archetypes within Abrahamic traditions and remind us that the narrative of human descent is far more complex, layered, and contested than the simplified genealogies presented in the Bible.
The Lineage Pathway
Adam and Eve ➔ Noah
According to Genesis, humanity descends from Adam and Eve through their children (notably Seth).
After the Flood, Noah and his sons (Shem, Ham, Japheth) became the ancestors of post-flood humanity within the framework of the Abrahamic faiths, not for all of humanity universally..
Shem is the ancestor of the Semitic peoples (including Hebrews and Arabs).
1️⃣ Noah as the Ancestor of All
Noah (Nuh) is considered a common ancestor of all humanity post-Flood in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic tradition.
His sons (Shem, Ham, Japheth) repopulated the Earth.
Shem’s descendants are traditionally considered Semites, the lineage from which Abraham descends.
2️⃣ Abraham: The Patriarch
Abraham (Ibrahim) descends from Shem, son of Noah.
He is the patriarch of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam (“Abrahamic faiths”).
Children:
Isaac → line of Jacob (Israel) → 12 Tribes of Israel → Moses and Jesus.
Ishmael → traditionally seen as ancestor of Arab peoples, including Muhammad.
3️⃣ Moses (Musa)
Moses is a descendant of Abraham through Isaac and Jacob (Israel), making him an Israelite of the Levi tribe.
He is not directly in Jesus’ biological lineage, but shares Abraham as a common ancestor.
4️⃣ Jesus (Isa)
Jesus, per Christian genealogy in Matthew and Luke, descends from Abraham → Isaac → Jacob → Judah (Tribe of Judah) → David → Jesus.
According to Christianity, Jesus is divinely conceived but is genealogically traced through Joseph’s or Mary’s lineage to David and Abraham.
In Islam, Jesus is honored as a prophet and son of Mary, without divine sonship, but still seen as an Israelite prophet.
5️⃣ Muhammad
Muhammad is descended from Abraham through Ishmael:
Abraham → Ishmael → Adnan → … → Hashim → Abdul Muttalib → Abdullah → Muhammad.
This makes Muhammad and Moses/Jesus distant cousins, all tracing back to Abraham.
Muhammad is not related by blood to Moses or Jesus beyond the shared Abrahamic ancestry.
Other Notables Often Cited in This Lineage
King David: Descendant of Abraham (via Isaac, Jacob, Judah); ancestor of Jesus.
Solomon (Sulaiman): Son of David, prophet in Islam.
Jacob (Israel): Son of Isaac, grandson of Abraham, father of the 12 tribes of Israel.
Joseph (Yusuf): Son of Jacob, a notable patriarch.
Mary (Maryam): Mother of Jesus, descendant of Abraham (via the Tribe of Judah/Levi, depending on tradition).

Key Points:
✅ All are linked through Noah → Shem → Abraham. ✅ Moses and Jesus are Israelites; Muhammad is an Ishmaelite. ✅ King David, Solomon, Jacob, and Joseph are other notable figures in this lineage. ✅ Jesus and Muhammad are not directly related beyond the Abrahamic patriarchal line. ✅ This shared ancestry is why Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are called “Abrahamic faiths.”

ABOUT THE SONG
America’s Secret War in Gaza: U.S. Boots on the Ground in Genocide, Funded by You
I’m starting to realize that hardly anyone in the United States knows the truth: the U.S. now has boots on the ground in Gaza, participating directly in genocide. Under President Trump, a private military force disguised as a “humanitarian” organization has been deployed, with American citizens in combat roles actively shooting unarmed, starving men, women, and children who are desperately seeking aid.
This militia, operating under the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF)—a company quietly incorporated in Delaware—has murdered hundreds of civilians under the banner of “aid distribution.” It is not just part of an extermination effort; it is systematically starving civilians, destroying what remains of their shelter and water sources, and preparing for the mass deportation of millions from their homeland. This is nothing less than the total depopulation of Gaza to clear the way for Trump’s vision: to build a resort on the ruins.
Remember, Trump already named a development in the Golan Heights after himself during his first term, right after moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. The current plan goes even further, turning genocide into real estate and mass murder into a business model.
This administration is not merely enabling genocide with weapons sales or diplomatic cover; it is actively participating in war crimes with American boots, American bullets, and American bombs dropped on babies. And it is all funded by you. Your tax dollars are paying for the bullets tearing through children’s bodies. Your tax dollars are financing the starvation of families under siege. Your tax dollars are building the siege walls around Gaza, enforcing an apartheid system, and bulldozing entire neighborhoods.
This is not a faraway conflict we can ignore while claiming innocence. This is direct, on-the-ground participation in genocide, carried out with full impunity, in your name, with your money.
It is time to stop pretending we do not know. The question is: Now that you know, what will you do about it?
The Christian Zionist Agenda: Ethnic Cleansing as Prophecy
There should be no doubt in anyone’s mind: what you are witnessing is an ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, orchestrated by a white supremacist, racist, Evangelical Christian, antisemitic U.S. government. This is not simply about geopolitical interests or security; it is a religiously fueled, extremist project.
Trump, along with his “supervisor of racism” Stephen Miller, are leading figures among Christian Zionists who believe they are fulfilling prophecy by bringing on the “Second Coming” and the “End of Times.” This belief system calls for an apocalyptic war and the eradication of Jews and Muslims from “The Holy Land,” to clear the way for Jesus’ return on the Temple Mount.
In this worldview, the systematic starvation, mass displacement, and extermination of Palestinians is not a tragedy to be avoided, but a goal to be achieved. This ideology, once confined to fringe pulpits, has captured the highest levels of U.S. power and is now directly shaping foreign and military policy in Gaza.
Christian Zionists are weaponizing religion to justify genocide, using U.S. military might and taxpayer funding to implement policies rooted in ethnic cleansing. This is not an abstract theological debate—it is the material reality of bombs falling on children, food blockades starving families, and bullets killing people at aid lines.
And it is happening right now, in your name, with your money.

In need of a cure

ABOUT THE SONG
America’s Hidden War in Gaza: Christian Zionism, Genocide, and the Silencing of Dissent
Doesn’t anyone in the United States realize the U.S. now has boots on the ground in Gaza, participating directly in genocide. Under President Trump, a private military force disguised as a “humanitarian” organization has been deployed, with American citizens in combat roles actively shooting unarmed, starving men, women, and children who are desperately seeking aid.
I think this denialism has mostly to do with the fear of appearing antisemitic. Trump has launched a coordinated intimidation campaign specifically designed to silence anti-genocide voices, labeling any criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza as antisemitism to shut down debate and dissent.
On top of that, many in the Jewish community have grown up surrounded by misinformation and false narratives that equate supporting human rights for Palestinians with hating Jewish people. I’ve had many Jewish friends—who don’t even realize that I’m Semitic myself—call me out for expressing these views, accusing me of being antisemitic when, in reality, I’m standing against genocide and for the dignity of all people.
We also need to focus on the Christian Zionists who are really driving this agenda. Many don’t realize that Trump, Stephen Miller, and the MAGA movement are not working to protect Jewish people; they are pushing an extremist Christian Zionist ideology that views the mass extermination of Jews as part of their prophecy to bring about the “Second Coming” and the “End Times.” They are using Israel and weaponizing Jewish communities for their own apocalyptic agenda, and in reality, their long-term goal is the elimination of Jews, not their protection.
We need to separate criticism of a government’s actions from hatred of a people. Standing against ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and mass murder should never be confused with bigotry. The fact that it so often is reflects how deeply these false narratives have taken hold in our society—and how urgently we need to challenge them.

Evangelical Christianity and Israel
If you’re curious about the driving force behind US support for Israel, it’s ironically rooted in Evangelical Christianity. Many Evangelical Christians believe they can hasten the “second coming of Christ” by bringing about the apocalypse. According to their interpretation of the Bible, this involves Israel reclaiming Jerusalem, Jesus returning, and ultimately eliminating all Jews. For numerous “Christian Zionists,” especially influential evangelists aligned with the Republican Party, support for Israel is less about political strategy and more about its supposed role in biblical prophecy. In this worldview, war is not something to be avoided but embraced as a divine necessity—an inevitable and even celebratory step toward Jesus’ rule from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The fate of Jews and Palestinians is, to put it mildly, seen as collateral damage.

ABOUT THE SONG It is profoundly disturbing to witness the systematic genocide of a people in real time. Schools and hospitals have been bombed into rubble. Farmland has been contaminated with chemical weapons, ensuring long-term food insecurity and poisoning the soil for generations. The infrastructure—roads, electricity, water treatment plants—has been deliberately destroyed, leaving sewer water running through streets while disease spreads among the displaced.
Tens of thousands of children have been killed by these bombings, with countless others left as amputees, forced to undergo surgery without anesthesia or pain medication due to the total collapse of medical supply chains. Entire families are starving under siege, cut off from food, water, and basic medical care as fuel blockades prevent bakeries from operating and hospitals from functioning.
July 10, 2025 Ahmed shared devastating news:
“Yesterday, my children were shot at, and today, my nephew was murdered. Paradise has received Abu Muhammad. The martyrdom of my nephew, Khaled Abu Hamra, who now joins his brother, the martyr Muhammad. We belong to Allah, and to Him we shall return.”
This is the brutal reality families in Gaza are enduring each day under occupation and siege. It is a call for all who witness these crimes to speak out and demand accountability before more innocent lives are lost.
July 10, 2025
Ahmed said:
Thank you, my friend, for shedding light on this crime. I would also like to inform you that all of Abu Muhammad’s children have been injured. His son Muhammad has been paralyzed due to a spinal injury. His eldest daughter is in intensive care. His youngest daughter had her fingers amputated and her face burned. Their mother had her foot amputated. This is a calamity and a disaster that has befallen this family.

ABOUT THE SONG
The song “Bullseye” captures the tension and courage required when exposing truth in a time of authoritarian silencing and genocide denial. Each section of the song can be understood as follows:
[Verse 1] Taking aim (Gonna shame the blamed)
This reflects the decision to speak out publicly, taking careful aim at the systems committing war crimes while knowing the risk (“gonna shame the blamed”). Publishing the truth about Gaza and the U.S. crackdown is taking a shot at power, explaining “why not” remain silent.
[Chorus] Let the truth be said (Hit the nail on the head)
This is the resolve to tell the truth no matter the consequences. “The rate of hate is why / You hit the bullseye” speaks to how authoritarian regimes amplify hate to silence dissent, and truth-tellers become targets because they “hit the bullseye” by exposing genocide, surveillance, and repression accurately.
[Bridge] When I shoot from the hip (… direct hit)
This represents courage in urgent truth-telling even when it places you in the crosshairs of the system, echoing your statement: “Once I publish the truth to millions of people, it actually makes me safer.” It is shooting from the hip with clarity and precision because waiting is complicity.
[Verse 2] Ready, aim, fire (Fire up your desire)
This verse reflects the moral call to action: despite fear, we prepare to expose crimes against humanity (“ready, aim, fire”) because the truth matters more than personal safety. “Fire up your desire” aligns with the moral urgency to stand against genocide.
[Chorus] Let the truth be said (Hit the nail on the head)
The repetition reinforces that calling out genocide and apartheid is not hate speech; it is hitting the truth directly, even as power tries to silence you.
[Outro] Only shoot from the hip (If you can do it)
This final line acknowledges the weight of responsibility. Speaking out publicly (“shooting from the hip”) can endanger others if not done carefully, aligning with your current caution around GoFundMe donations and how aid can be traced to people in Gaza, putting them at risk of execution.
Overall Meaning:
“Bullseye” becomes an anthem for courageous truth-telling in a time of repression, illustrating:
The moral necessity to “take aim” at genocide and oppression.
The precision and clarity required to “hit the bullseye” without harming others unintentionally.
The personal cost and real dangers for those who speak out.
The reminder that publishing the truth is not only a duty but a form of protection for oneself and the broader fight for justice.
It embodies the moment we are in:
If we believe in freedom, it must include the freedom to call out genocide—and the freedom to stand in solidarity with those who suffer under it, even when it puts us in the crosshairs of those in power.
THE STORY
Israeli Minister Israel Katz has confirmed that the Israeli government is planning to establish what it calls a “humanitarian city” in southern Gaza—on the ruins of what was once Rafah before it was decimated by Israeli bombings. Human rights experts warn that this plan amounts to building a concentration camp in Gaza under the false pretense of humanitarian aid.
Under Katz’s plan, Israel would first force 600,000 Palestinians into the area and eventually concentrate the entire population of over 2 million Palestinians there. Entry into the camp would require screening by Israeli authorities, effectively creating a prison where Palestinians can neither move freely nor escape the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding around them.
If logistical conditions align, Israel intends to establish this camp during a temporary 60-day ceasefire currently being discussed by the U.S. and other mediators. However, legal experts argue that such a plan is a clear violation of international law and a crime against humanity. “It is all about population transfer to the southern tip of the Gaza Strip in preparation for deportation outside the Strip,” Israeli human rights lawyer Michael Sfard told The Guardian. “While the government still calls the deportation ‘voluntary,’ people in Gaza are under so many coercive measures that no departure can be seen in legal terms as consensual.”
A U.S.-Backed Operation
According to Reuters, the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has prepared a parallel plan to create “Humanitarian Transit Areas” in Gaza. While marketed as safe zones, these areas would serve to concentrate Palestinians under tight control, aiming to replace Hamas’ governance in Gaza and further align with U.S. President Donald Trump’s “vision for Gaza.” Trump has previously described his plan as turning Gaza into a “Riviera,” which in practice would mean the ethnic cleansing of the Strip for future development while erasing its indigenous population.
Al Jazeera reports that it has obtained satellite images showing extensive bulldozing and flattening of what remains of Rafah, clearing the land for this planned “camp.” Meanwhile, the GHF has shut down three of its four aid distribution sites, leaving the population with even fewer means of survival. At the sole remaining site, 20 women and children were reportedly shot in a single day while attempting to obtain food, adding to the hundreds of starving Palestinians who have been shot by GHF and Israeli forces while seeking aid.
Exporting Ethnic Cleansing Abroad
President Trump’s role in these plans has been further revealed through his recent meetings with five leaders of African nations. While publicly framed as economic and diplomatic discussions, credible sources confirm that the primary agenda was to secure agreements for accepting mass deportations of immigrants from the United States and the forced expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza.
Regionally, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Iran, and Iraq have refused to participate in this ethnic cleansing agenda, leaving the U.S. and Israel scrambling to pressure or incentivize other nations into accepting deported Palestinians. Human rights observers warn that the move to forcibly confine Palestinians into a single encampment under armed control is a prelude to mass deportation, mirroring dark chapters of ethnic cleansing throughout history.
Why This Matters
This plan is not a security measure or a humanitarian initiative. It is a calculated, systematic effort to erase a people from their land under the guise of aid and counterterrorism, backed by the world’s most powerful governments. It violates every principle of human rights and international law, threatening to set a dangerous precedent for how powerful states can displace entire populations with impunity.
The world cannot afford to look away. What is unfolding in Gaza is not only a tragedy for Palestinians; it is a test of whether the international community will stand up against genocide and the criminalization of resistance, or whether it will remain complicit in the name of political expediency.
Evangelical Christianity and Israel
If you’re curious about the driving force behind US support for Israel, it’s ironically rooted in Evangelical Christianity. Many Evangelical Christians believe they can hasten the “second coming of Christ” by bringing about the apocalypse. According to their interpretation of the Bible, this involves Israel reclaiming Jerusalem, Jesus returning, and ultimately eliminating all Jews.

[Intro] Oh, well (Can’t unring the bell) How absurd… (It’s not even a word)
[Verse 1] So, I’ve been told Many times along the road No matter how old Today is today No matter your mode
[Chorus] Oh, well (Can’t unring the bell) How absurd… (s’ not even a word) Haven’t you heard (Or couldn’t you tell) Scatter the heard
[Verse 2] Yes, indeed Best not impede The will of the ill If you recede The will succeed Of falling from the hill
[Chorus] Oh, well (Can’t unring the bell) How absurd… (s’ not even a word) Haven’t you heard (Or couldn’t you tell) Scatter the heard
[Bridge] Here it’s been told (Hear — so I’ll grow old) The tail of our fail (Flail! Woe, whoa woe, oh, oh) Don’t cha know (Wail! Woe, whoa woe, oh, oh)
[Outro] [Instrumental, Guitar Solo] So, I can live another day (The world hears what I say) The tail of our fail (Flail! Woe, whoa woe, oh, oh) Don’t cha know (Wail! Woe, whoa woe, oh, oh)
ABOUT THE SONG
“Unring” captures the irreversible moment when I choose to speak the truth publicly, even under threat, knowing that once that truth is released to the world, it cannot be silenced or hidden again.
The opening verse, “No matter how old, today is today,” reflects my decades of investigative work and the experiences that led me to this moment—understanding that there is never a wrong time to speak out. Despite the personal danger, I know that publishing the truth about the genocide in Gaza is necessary and urgent.
The chorus, “Can’t unring the bell,” symbolizes the point of no return once I publish the truth. Once the bell of truth rings—once I tell millions of people what is happening—it cannot be unrung, undone, or unpublished, no matter the pressure from those in power. It is also a declaration of protection: by making the truth public, I make myself safer, forcing accountability through exposure.
“Scatter the heard” plays on “scatter the herd,” reflecting how my work disrupts blind followers and the systems of silence, breaking the collective complicity that allows genocide and oppression to continue unchallenged.
The second verse, “Best not impede the will of the ill,” is a warning that silence out of fear only allows the corrupt (“the ill”) to continue unchecked. It reflects the reality that if I recede into fear, the systems of oppression and war crimes will continue to thrive.
The bridge, “Here it’s been told… Hear, so I’ll grow old,” expresses my understanding that speaking the truth openly is not only my duty but also my shield, allowing me to “live another day.” The cries in “Flail! Woe, whoa woe,” mirror the grief I witness daily—the children in Gaza who are shot at, the families bombed, the journalists silenced—grounding my personal act of truth-telling within the collective suffering that demands my voice.
The instrumental outro offers a breath between chaos, representing the moment the world pauses to listen, holding the weight of what I have revealed.
In essence, “Unring” is my anthem of accountability and defiance: Once I tell the truth, there is no taking it back, and that is precisely why it must be told.
THE TRUTH
We are witnessing a dangerous erosion of First Amendment rights in the United States, where the government aligns itself with genocide abroad while persecuting those who resist it at home. This moment demands clarity: opposing genocide is not antisemitism, and demanding an end to apartheid is not hate speech. The real danger lies in the authoritarian structures that criminalize truth-telling while facilitating war crimes with impunity.
My background on this is important to understand. I am an investigative journalist with decades of experience in publishing and litigation, including over a decade spent in court defending the First Amendment. I have faced threats to my life and the safety of my family many times because of my commitment to exposing the truth. In this particular moment, the danger is even more severe.
I am a descendant of the Tribe of Judah, which makes me a Semite. Even more significantly, I am part of a bloodline that includes Princess Diana, and some believe it traces back to Jesus himself. This lineage has been targeted for centuries by those in power, from the Vatican to the Freemasons, seeking to erase it. Despite these risks, I believe it is necessary to speak out. Silence in the face of genocide, apartheid, and the suppression of truth is not an option, no matter how significant the personal cost.
Perhaps most urgently, I want to share what I recently explained to a friend who asked whether it would be safer to discuss Gaza in person over coffee rather than here:
“I think both are important. It would be great to get together, and I’d enjoy seeing you again. At the same time, I know it’s best for me to discuss these things publicly. Once I publish the truth to millions of people, it actually makes me safer. My bigger concern is for those around me.
Have you seen my post about Ahmed Alkhateeb? Since I started sharing his situation, his children were shot at. I’m aware that Israeli intelligence knows everything going in and out, including his location, and that’s what truly worries me. So yes, I believe it’s important to keep saying these things here.”
I am sharing this here because it also relates to our friends in Gaza and the harsh reality of surveillance and risk tied to our activism. My main concern now is the “flow of money.” Anyone who donates to GoFundMe campaigns or other aid channels supporting Gaza is at risk of arrest or jail under the current U.S. crackdown on speech and activism. More critically, those funds can be traced to specific mobile phones in Gaza, putting recipients at extreme risk of being located and executed. This is something we need to consider carefully as we move forward, balancing our urgent desire to help with the grave dangers imposed by the systems we are fighting.
This is a moment that requires courage, clarity, and collective action. We cannot allow authoritarianism to dictate who lives and who dies, who speaks and who is silenced. If we believe in freedom, it must include the freedom to call out genocide—and the freedom to stand in solidarity with those who suffer under it.

“Shot” captures the stark, raw reality of children in Gaza, like Ayham and Adam, whose childhoods are shattered by bullets and bombs while they are simply playing with friends. The song begins with the haunting image of children playing, only to witness the death of their friends in an instant, emphasizing the unnatural cruelty of children growing up surrounded by violence and death, robbed of safety, innocence, and the right to simply be young.
The repeated “Shot!” in the bridge is a direct confrontation, demanding accountability: “What’s the matter with you people?” It challenges a world that turns away, including those claiming faith under the “same steeple.” It confronts religious hypocrisy among Jews, Christians, and Muslims, invoking “God of Moses, God of Jesus, God of Muhammad” to ask if we have all gone mad, allowing genocide and ethnic cleansing in the name of politics, nationalism, or false claims of security.
The guitar solo and instrumental sections are a moment of collective grief, representing the silence of the world punctuated by the piercing pain of each new child’s death, a requiem for the young lives lost in Gaza.
The second verse, “What once was a friend / Has met their tragic end,” is a personal reflection on the bonds shattered by violence, calling on listeners to understand the message that these deaths send: a world tolerating the systematic murder of children under siege is a world that has lost its moral compass.
The song’s “Tragically sad” outro leaves the listener in a space of reflection and discomfort, forcing us to sit with the reality of war crimes and collective punishment inflicted upon children and families in Gaza, demanding we not look away.
“Shot” is a condemnation of the systematic, deliberate violence occurring in Gaza under Netanyahu and Trump’s genocidal policies, backed by U.S. complicity, and a cry for accountability, empathy, and a return to shared humanity across all faiths and nations.
Updates from Gaza: Ahmed Alkhateeb Speaks
July 7, 2025 Ahmed Alkhateeb reports:
“In a new example of this ongoing crime, they are now threatening us with displacement and eviction from our areas to locations near the beach, where there is no clean water or basic necessities for life—let alone enough space to accommodate all who will be forced to leave. Imagine, they want about 500,000 people to live near the beach now. This is madness and a profound injustice.”
July 9, 2025 Ahmed shared that his children, Ayham and Adam, were shot at while playing with their friends near their tent. Bullets struck a nearby car, narrowly missing them. The children ran back, shaking and pale with fear, traumatized by yet another moment of a childhood stolen by war. Ahmed thanked God they are still alive. Tragically, the friends they were playing with were shot, and we are awaiting an update on their condition.
This is yet another horrifying example of the war crimes being committed with impunity by Israel, backed by the United States. No child should live in fear of being shot while playing. No parent should have to watch their children’s innocence shattered by bullets and bombs. This is the daily reality under siege in Gaza, where systematic targeting and terrorizing of civilians, including children, is not collateral damage—it is the predictable outcome of policies rooted in collective punishment and ethnic cleansing. The world cannot look away or remain silent while these crimes continue.
July 10, 2025 Ahmed shared devastating news:
“Yesterday, my children were shot at, and today, my nephew was murdered. Paradise has received Abu Muhammad. The martyrdom of my nephew, Khaled Abu Hamra, who now joins his brother, the martyr Muhammad. We belong to Allah, and to Him we shall return.”
This is the brutal reality families in Gaza are enduring each day under occupation and siege. It is a call for all who witness these crimes to speak out and demand accountability before more innocent lives are lost.

Ahmed said:
Thank you, my friend, for shedding light on this crime. I would also like to inform you that all of Abu Muhammad’s children have been injured. His son Muhammad has been paralyzed due to a spinal injury. His eldest daughter is in intensive care. His youngest daughter had her fingers amputated and her face burned. Their mother had her foot amputated. This is a calamity and a disaster that has befallen this family.

Evangelical Christianity and Israel If you’re curious about the driving force behind US support for Israel, it’s ironically rooted in Evangelical Christianity. Many Evangelical Christians believe they can hasten the “second coming of Christ” by bringing about the apocalypse. According to their interpretation of the Bible, this involves Israel reclaiming Jerusalem, Jesus returning, and ultimately eliminating all Jews. For numerous “Christian Zionists,” especially influential evangelists aligned with the Republican Party, support for Israel is less about political strategy and more about its supposed role in biblical prophecy. In this worldview, war is not something to be avoided but embraced as a divine necessity—an inevitable and even celebratory step toward Jesus’ rule from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The fate of Jews and Palestinians is, to put it mildly, seen as collateral damage.
