As a longtime humanitarian who has battled famines and hunger crises, I fear that starvation in Gaza has now passed the tipping point and we are going to see mass-scale starvation mortality. A thread on famine momentum, famine response, and what it means for Gaza today.

The saddest part of Ramadan is that at the end of the day, we get to eat while some people continue to stay hungry. Ya Allah, please provide for the poor and the needy

Tired of seeing dead children, parents, fathers, mothers, doctors, journalists.. I have zero grey to offer any person who has spent even a minute over the last 17 months manufacturing empathy & excuses for the murderers.

Al Jazeera anchor: “In response to your protest, the NFL says you’ll now be banned for life. Would you still have done it if you knew the risks?” Super Bowl protester Zul-Qarnain Nantambu: “The risk of a ban? I was afraid I’d get sniped by a Secret Service bullet. I can watch a football game on television if I choose to, sir.”

My New Year's wish is that those of you who've remained silent over Israel's genocide (no, empty handwringing doesn't count) find a moral compass and some basic humanity and speak out.

Because we’re bombing their homelands.
Why do Muslims need to live in Europe? Why can’t they live in their own homelands?

Feels insane that a couple of weeks ago we all watched a video of a young man burning to death in a hospital bed and somehow the global diplomatic incident today is about a bunch of racist football hooligans getting a shoeing. What are we doing?

May every person shilling for Harris as the ‘lesser of two evils’ and ‘best choice for Palestinians’, as her administration exterminates north Gaza, meet the ghosts of those they helped bury. Especially those who identify as fellow Muslims - your Lord will deal with you.
