I live with my dad in an illegal […] settlement in the West Bank (not out of choice of course). And I was arrested on January 5th, 2025 for "incitement to violence and terrorism," with stickers I spread in the settlement that I live in. I was in a detention center in Jerusalem for 2 weeks until they decided to release me to house arrest. I've been in house arrest for 8+ months now, and my next court hearing will be only in November.

I did what I could as a person diagnosed with autism and depression, and it got me arrested and abused. If they release me, I'll have to do 9-10 months of community services (working at a hospital or cleaning the streets). And the alternative to house arrest would be sending me to a Hostel for disabled people who need psychological treatment.

I don't believe I have a future here. Everyone's a zionist, no one would want to employ an anti-zionist to their workplace who has a police file on "incitement to terrorism." I don't want to pay taxes to the zionist state either, and I also have post-trauma from the abuse I went through caused by Israeli police and prison service. I had enough seeing the military checkpoints in the West Bank and Israeli flags everywhere i go.

I want to continue with my activism, but leaving is going to be the best option I have. I don't know where to go, what will happen in November, and where I will be in a year from now.

I feel lost, trapped, and hopeless.
