My Life in Gaza with Amr Abdul Latif

from The Thinking Muslim

The death toll in Gaza has reached above 10,000, yet the so-called international community, in reality, the Western nations, are deaf to the cries under the rubble. The Israeli war machine no longer worries about redlines as they act in complete impunity. If the hypocrisy of the West was not evident before this crisis, it is clear now that the Liberal World Order was never meant to safeguard the lives and honour of those it deems lesser people. Amr Abdul Latif was, until recently, a resident and citizen of Gaza. He came to the UK to study for his postgraduate degree at St Andrews University and now works as a software developer. The Western press, even those that show little empathy, present the people of Gaza as lesser human beings who do not have dreams and aspirations. Who are either to be pitied or presented as subhuman. I want to understand what life has been like since 2007, when Israel announced its siege and what the average Gaza actually believes.Please REMEMBER to subscribe and consider donating, however small, to The Thinking Muslim to receive a share in the reward and help us make a greater impact. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠You can donate to The Thinking Muslim either through a one-time contribution: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/Donateor join our Patreon to get access to exclusive events:https://www.patreon.com/TheThinkingMuslimYou can now purchase our Thinking Muslim mug here https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merch Sign up to our newsletter https://jalalayn.substack.com Hosted on Acast.
