I know I'm not my government but I want to apologize to him for "my" government for being a bunch of spineless cowards who absolutely know what they are doing and what they are supporting being done in Palestine.

It boils my blood to hear them talk as if it's a war rather than a mass slaughter and to hear them act like "the hostages" (Israelis) are the only ones who matter, as if Israel isn't holding thousands of Palestinians hostage right now and as if all of Gaza and the West Bank aren't held hostage by them as well.

I don't want to say too much but have a family member who is very, very closely connected to the upper ranks in "my" government but I haven't had contact with them for a long time, which is lucky because if I was near this family member and their colleagues I'd spit in their child-murdering faces and tell them that they're lucky that it's the only projectile that I sent towards their heads.

I can't put it into words how much I hate the injustice of the world and that you, your friend, your families and your people are subject to some of the worst of these injustices. I don't have a question, I just want both of you to know that I'm sorry that the world has failed you for over a century and that my heart breaks for all of Palestine.

The people of South Africa stand with you and your friend forever and always, we try our best to help even though we're a poor third world country on the other side of the globe. I hope one day that you can rid yourself of this horrible Israeli apartheid and live in freedom and peace in your own land. It seems impossible, but that's what they said about South Africa in the past.

As for a question, what kind of music does he like/listen to? I always find that can be helpful for the soul when going through difficult times.

Ever heard of any trans people in Gaza? How receptive are people to communists?

Oh and as a fun little fact, all the lgbt people here in my american lgbt org support Palestine and wish you the best. It feels like the dominant opinion among LGBT people here as a whole.

Does he still have family in Gaza? Are there any plans to get them out?

What is his daily routine like? Is he able to find employment in Egypt?

What is the mood like in Egypt? Are Egyptians supportive of Palestinians, wary of Palestinians, etc?

I'm really sorry about how my country is passively supporting Israeli atrocities

no questions, I pray for peace in the Middle East and the disestablishment of the genocidal Israeli state.

so many Africans (in Ghana as well) are in solidarity with Palestine. we too have experienced subjucation, oppresion and genocide at the hands of imperialists and settlers.

just like how the people of Zimbabwe were liberated from the settler colonial state Rhodesia through armed liberation and international pressure, I know that one day, the people of Palestine will be liberated as well!

i want to apologize to him for us iranians being too weak to protect them. i wish we were a better run country so this could've never happened. all my support goes to him and his family may god protect them.

I don't have a question to ask, but sending all the love and support I have. There are so many thinking of your situation, donating, and never letting a zionist go unchecked abroad. It pales in comparison to what's happening every day, but Palestine is never forgotten.

What can I do to help? What will help? What are your plans moving forward?

Please ask your friend to accept the deepest sympathies and support here from the dark heart of the imperial core. Ask him for forgiveness for the evil our leaders do in supporting the zionists. We are not all like that.

I would like to ask what the mood is like among Gazans in particular and Palestinians in general. Is there hope for liberation? Are there parts of Palestinian society who doesn't support the resistance but instead believes that more liberal, western approach can solve the conflict?

A question I haven't seen anyone ask: Is there anything he wishes people in the USA knew about the ongoing genocide our evil government is actively conducting via proxy?

And not a question, but I send all my solidarity, love, and support.

What's it like for him being in Egypt? Are people welcoming? Has he been able to find community with other Palestinians? Does he feel safe?

As-salamu alaykum, comrade.

The Chechen people feel deep solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for justice and liberation. Your fight is our fight. Allahu yuthabbitkum, may you stay strong in the face of oppression.

I believe in a future where Palestine will triumph. Glory to the resistance, long live Gaza.

I don't have any questions, at the end of the day I'm a dipshit lib, so I'll leave it to other more informed hexbears. Thanks to your friend for taking the time to answer them

صحيح كلامك والله كلامهم اعطاني دافع كبير شكرا كتير الهم

A comment from my friend

What does he think about Portugal?

I wanna say that the world's people are with you, even if the bourgeoisie isn't. Yesterday tens of thousands of people came out to the streets in Spain alone to protest (possibly hundreds of thousands), in a general strike day summoned by CGT (a union) and coordinated by other organisations like the students union, which was in charge of the prior protests in universities. We're protesting for our government to stop all relations with Israel, both economical and political, stop the weapon deals, and to close the Israeli embassies.

As a question, I wanna ask what's some music you love that you can recommend, and what's a delicious Palestinian dish that I can make at home to eat and to cook!

Let your friend know that the people of Latin America support Palestine. Cuba, Honduras, Bolivia, Colombia, and Venezuela have broken relations with Israel. The Brazilian, Chilean, and Mexican presidents have also shown their support, both in the ICJ case or by sending aid to Gaza.

And ask them if they know about Club Deportivo Palestino, a popular football/soccer team in Chile (Chile has the largest Palestinian diaspora outside the Middle East).

Forgive me if my questions are a little basic.

What is the current food situation like? I know that most of the aid to gaza is blocked, there is little arable land and the sea is largely blocked. I assume that unrwa is playing a major role, but what else are people in gaza doing to survive?

Also, how exactly are people leaving gaza (whenever they do make it out)? Are they being smuggled through the Egyptian border?

Out of the whole Axis of Resistance, or even just the Gazan forces, led by Hamas, fighting o'er there, which one do you think has the best chance to strike Israel hard?
