It is #HolocaustRemembranceDay 
today, where we remember that 6 million Jews were killed by Nazi Germany. Most Jews remember this daily, even those born generations later.

this area is under control of the Palestinians but Israel controls everything going in or out, including water, which is shut off half the week.

is entirely in Israel's hands. Even Arab citizens of Israel are only allowed to vote in regional elections, not national, yet defenders of Zionism claim that Israel is a democracy. It is an ethnostate.

the UK, US and Israel are perpetrating in Yemen. A genocide that, in a reasonable world would be headline news every day our country continues its involvement, complete with bombed children, famine and cholera.

country and Europe have done over oil and over land for pipelines. Syria, Iraq (multiple times), Libya, Lebanon, but also attempted coups in Venezuela and military build up in the South China Sea are over oil.

murdered by the United States and its allies over oil in the last 30 years? Much of the Arab world has been turned to rubble, neighborhoods have been bombed, presidents have been assassinated. The US has repeatedly allied itself with groups it once called terrorists.

Inside the US, Arabs and Muslims (and those being mistaken FOR Muslim) have been subjected to racial profiling, discrimination, beatings, shootings, hateful graffiti and horrendous lies about their practices (don't ask because I won't repeat them).
