Description I had other plans to draw this week, but I can't ignore the massacre going on in Palestine recently. I didn't include my signature in this one because I don't it to be considered just some personal art. This is my display of solidarity to the people of Palestine in their struggle to survive.

Zionism and Judaism aren’t the same thing. While the media condemns an entire people to a brutal death, Do you know what it’s like living in occupied Palestine?
•Water: over 90% of water in Palestine is taken by Israel’s pumps exclusively for Israeli citizens (underground water and rivers, like the Jordan). Even with the little water they have, there are more threats to their lives. The West Bank has poor water treatment, making them vulnerable to diseases. Gaza has a problem because of salinization from the sea. Although Gaza is on the coast and fishing is part of Gazan culture, they’re only allowed to go ¼ of the set distance by the Oslo agreements (20 miles).
•Health: The UN understands Palestine needs more hospitals and medical supplies. Many children are hit by bullets, bombs, get sick because of pollution, and many are born sick because of the miserable life conditions. All medical supplies must go through Israeli control. Thus, all lack of health care in Gaza is directly Israel’s decision.
•Circulation: Netanyahu may have told Gazans to flee before the bombings, but he knows very well they can’t. There are walls all around, exit points are either blocked by the Israeli army or have been destroyed. Fleeing through water is also impossible as Israel’s navy heavily controls even the beaches. Gazans also can’t rebuild houses and hospitals, because they aren’t allowed to get cement inside. That’s why it’s said Gaza is the world's largest open-air prison.
Besides all of this, Israel promotes colonization with green-washing. You may have heard Israel’s universities are quite advanced when it comes to sustainable development. But studies show Israel’s occupation is increasing draughts, desertification, the heavy control of Palestinian’s life through walls and water sources get in the way of agriculture and soil regeneration.
We must support peace, but we know this massacre won’t end with diplomacy. Those who deny you basic rights won’t keep any promises. There are only two ways out of this: the total genocide of Palestine or the defeat of the colonial Israeli army.

THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND I'M NOT GOING TO LET AN ENTIRE PEOPLE'S SURVIVAL BE A DEBATE ON THE INTERNET. COMMENTS ARE LOCKED TO AVOID ZIONISTS FROM EMBARRASISNG THEMSELVES.
