                        I  have  spent  the  better  part  of  my      What happened next cannot be
                      week trying to find a way, a sentence,          described as anything less other than a

                      to  begin  this  article.  I  even  tried  to   complete genocide. Immediately after
                      write  a  poem  but  could  not  finish.  I     the Hamas attack, the mindless
                      opened all sorts of social media to try         propaganda started. The Zionist entity

                      outstanding,  mind-blowing  report.  I          and non-material ones to “retaliate”.

                      innocents.  I  still  vividly  remember  the    spreading of lies by the CNN about 40

                      first time in prep school, when we were         beheaded Israeli babies, that was later
                      shown  pictures  of  the  Deir  Yassin          denied by the entity’s officials and

                      anger,  helplessness  and  suffocating
                      injustice.  I  remember  thinking:  “What

                      kind of world would let them get away

                      broke down the “Iron Wall” separating
                      The Gaza Strip and entered Kafr Aza, a

                      militants -all “Israelis” are recruited by

                      the IDF- and took some, hostage.
