Remember: Biden said an Israeli assault on Rafah was his “red line.”

As nearly 500,000 Palestinians flee Rafah as Israel’s attack intensifies, Biden is sending:

$700 million of tank ammo
$500 million in tactical vehicles
$60 million in mortar rounds

End weapons to Israel now!

In 1948, armed militias massacred thousands of Palestinians, forcing more than 75% of Palestinians to flee their homes to establish Israel on top of stolen Palestinian land. The tragedy, the Nakba, has everything to do with Israel’s genocide in Gaza today.

“I choose to stand for [children] to keep their right to learn alive.”

This teacher created a classroom in a Deir al-Balah refugee camp to help fill the gap in education Palestinian kids have experienced over the past seven months.

Israel’s deliberate destruction of the Palestinian education system in Gaza has been made possible by America’s continued funding and backing of its brutal oppression of Palestinians.

Palestinians haven’t been able to attend school since November, meaning Israel is depriving 625,000 Palestinians of their right to education.

Israel has also killed more than 261 teachers and 95 university professors, and damaged or destroyed 80% of all schools in Gaza – including every single university.

During its 8-month genocidal assault on Palestinians in Gaza, Israel has killed more than 14,000 Palestinian children, and at least 5,479 students.

Those students will never graduate or get the chance to fulfill their dreams.

THREAD: While students in America celebrate graduation, Israel is ruthlessly killing Palestinian students in Gaza and robbing them of their right to education.
