To think in my State, we citizens must beg our Legislators to pass a Resolution requesting our Congressional to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, to end Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians. If Legislators and Congressional were good human beings, it would already be done, all support of Israel would be nil!

Yes, don’t let them numb you. Recently I’ve noticed the horrific images on SM are being replaced with posts about Iran/Israel conflict and politics. I deliberately continue to repost the horrific images, even though I’ve had an exceptionally distressing week because the carnage continues. For me, my son, Palestine and teaching job are the centre of my focus…everything else is peripheral.

I can never be content or truly happy while the slaughter continues, nor am I desensitised to the horrors. Yesterday it was a drone with a recording of a baby crying to lure people out for killing. Today, it’s a baby with an amputated hand, fractured arm and face full of stitches. Don’t look away!
