An open letter from @FerozeSidhwa & I as we serve on a humanitarian mission in Gaza, you can read the letter in image form or read the 🧵: On March 25 the two of us, an orthopedic surgeon and a trauma surgeon, traveled to the Gaza Strip to work at Gaza European Hospital.

2 nights ago, a 13 yr old boy & his grandma were ordered to evacuate from Gaza city by the IDF. As they were driving south, their car was minced by 2 Apache helicopter gun ships, killing the grandma instantly. He lost both legs and right arm. His crime: being a Palestinian

Last night in Gaza, we operated on a 15 year old girl who was riding her bike when she was shredded by an Apache helicopter. She will be lucky if she keeps 2 of her limbs after 12 hours of collective surgery

@SenSanders As an American surgeon of Jewish heritage who operated on children in Gaza, I attest that this is pure genocide. The shredded and burned Palestinian women and children were not the unfortunate casualties of war against Hamas by the IDF, but rather their intended target all along!

Today, with colleagues, I introduced legislation to block arms sales to Israel. Sending more weapons to Netanyahu's extremist government is immoral & illegal: U.S. weapons are responsible for far too many civilian casualties in Gaza. We must end our complicity in this atrocity.

I could use your help reaching my fundraising goal. Every single share and donation makes a difference. gofund.me/2872ca1f

@texastoughgirl1 Muslims fought in the US revolution. They were here probably before your ancestors. You stand as proof that bigotry and stupidity are symbiotic.

I am just being honest, Muslims do not belong in America. They are trying to change everything about our country…. How dare they come HERE & try to change it???? If you go to another country you follow THEIR ways, practice your religion- that is fine but NEVER think the country should change b/c you decided to come to it!!!!! Not talking about the campus BS-that is our government using them. They are a cancer in America, sorry just calling it like it is being proven!!

@SenFettermanPA I am an American surgeon of Jewish heritage and I worked in Gaza witnessing the genocide firsthand. I can only pray that people in power like you base their decisions on genuine facts and not your AIPAC funded bias.

I’ve repeatedly stated that Hamas, at any point, could end this catastrophe. Want peace in Gaza? Where are the campus protests demanding Hamas to take this ceasefire deal? Tents and chants won’t end this, but Hamas could.

@DrEliDavid @shlomo_karhi Shutting down media has always been the tool of fascist governments such as Netanyahu’s, which is trying to be a theocracy while pretending to be a democracy.

Congratulations to Israel 🇮🇱 Minister of Communication @shlomo_karhi for shutting down Al Jazeera channel in Israel. Every Western country should shut down this dangerous “news” network that is the mouthpiece of all terrorist organizations. _

@RetiredCrimeDog @Kahlissee Or for Israel to allow more settlers and the IDF to commit more war crimes against humanity.

@Kahlissee All this does is kick the can down the road and allows Hamas to regroup, rearm, and reattck once their strength is back Bad move!!!

Al Jazeera banned in Israel. It has never been more important to support independent journalism so that the truth of what is happening in Gaza can be presented to international criminal courts. Plz support independent journalism by sharing and donating. gofund.me/e6d71a14

@DrEliDavid You’re as much a physician as Josef Mengele. All fighters are treated preferentially. The famine was caused by your food deprivation, מְטוּמטָם

If there is a famine in Gaza, why are most Hamas terrorists who surrendered obese?

@LebaneseGuy55 I have posted many pictures of the genocidal carnage.

@LebaneseGuy55 70% of our patients are children

@LebaneseGuy55 I am a surgeon in Gaza right now

@JamesWa20129665 @ACTBrigitte @TheLeoTerrell You’re an asshole who doesn’t know what damn thing about history or the Palestinian people. You have a red Maga hat, don’t you?

@ACTBrigitte @TheLeoTerrell Stay on Hamas until they are gone!

God bless the IDF!

@TanausuX @yanisvaroufakis Zionism is the sadism employed to ensure that there is no content other than the sadism.

@IMTIzionism Let me make your targeting easier for you:

A wonderful morning to IDF soldiers, may God protect you! 🩵

@Eve_Barlow Then the Jews of Israel must control the Zionists of Israel

This website is out of control. The Jew hatred that is manifesting here is worse than it’s ever been. And it’s dangerously influencing people who have no idea what they’re consuming or how their worldviews are being manipulated. I’ve never ever seen anything like it.

@BenMFreeman “We cry and hurt with the people of Gaza and Palestine” Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss decried the Israeli state’s ongoing onslaught on Gaza at the European Summit for Palestine refuting the claim that the war is in the name of Judaism. #zionism #israelpalestineconflict #gaza

The Jews are a people, a nation. Our god is a national god, worshipped by a specific people in a specific land. Israel is our indigenous land. You can try to separate us from it, but you won’t succeed. It is central to who we are.

@CommunityNote_s @BenMFreeman Perhaps you should smell a burning baby’s face or leg you genocidal murderer?

If you blame Israel and not Hamas for this war and all the civilian death then you’re either an idiot or you’re a racist.

@BenMFreeman “We cry and hurt with the people of Gaza and Palestine” Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss decried the Israel’s ongoing onslaught on Gaza at the European Summit for Palestine in Istanbul, refuting the claim that the war is in the name of Judaism. #zionism #israelpalestineconflict #gaza
