My friends, you are indispensable to the completion of their suffering.
Neither the sheep nor the crow,
or the heirs of official sin, cousins of the murderers,
trapped by their incandescent un-virtue, reeking of disaster.
You are, my friends, the voice of reason, of morality
the heirs of civility, of nobility, of humanity,
Heed your calling and stand, raise your voice
on the devastated land, and cry for justice.
Palestine will be free,
Free from the smug of genocide deniers,
Free from the yoke of repression,
Free from the chains of mass starvation,
Free from the unrelenting bombs, and sniper fires
that kill children at food lines, without mercy, without any remorse.
You are my friends, the voice of consciousness of an entire generation.
Silence is not an option, silence is complicity, a badge of dishonor
Weighing heavily with crushing implications.
Stand and release the quantum energy of liberation in the words, and tears in your eyes --
that speak truth to power and empathy to the heart,
Palestine will be free.

as the Ugandan Judge at ICJ ,
Julia Sebutunda voted against South African legal
team 's case at ICJ ,
which portrayed the genocidal
actions of Israel troops
in Gaza.
The entire Africans astonished
to be betrayed by one of their daughters
who failed
To understand the consequences
of Apartheid in South Africa
and Colonisation in entire Africa.
Imagine ,
Only Judge Julia stood to defend genocidal actions
While others judges approved the demands
of South African legal team which portrayed
Humanity.
How do oppressors will respect Africans
when a top Judge like Julia thinks
of her stomach than Humanity?
Oh! Judge Julia come back to your senses
as quick as possible.
Remember more than 26.000 people
who already died in Gaza
from October 2023
to January 2024.
Humanity
And Humanity
must be the popular lyrics for Palestinians
in the World.

A plea for freedom, not in vain.
Palestinians yearn to break the chain,
Yet Hamas' grip, a binding bane.
Frayed hopes tangle with despair,
Courage whispers in the air.
To rise against the darker crest,
And claim the right to freedom's quest.
Yet complexities tell this their tale,
History's wounds, a heavy veil.
Yearning hearts, a common theme,
Struggle unfolds, a turbulent stream.
In unity, a power untold,
To reshape stories yet unfold.
The choice to rise, to break the ties,
For freedom's call within their eyes.

Every sleepless night comes with that thought,
The itching feeling in my heart it has brought,
Where are the rest of them sleeping?,
Days without food, their hunger creeping.
My food and water feel like a choke,
My tears get stuck, my heart is broke,
The thought hits like a bomb in my head,
How will I face my Lord when I'm dead.
When He asks why I was blind,
To the suffering and pain of His mankind,
How could I be comfortable when hands were cut?
How could I be so callous and left it to rot?
The children screaming for help,
How could I ignore their helpless yelp,
Can I sleep peacefully with what they've lost?
How can I claim to be righteous at all cost?
How will I make it up to them,
Say we are one, we are brethren,
How can I call myself their kin,
When I betrayed them and stayed within?
I did nothing to help, I did not move,
I did not stop Israel from their cruel groove,
How do I live with the guilt and shame,
The price of my silence is now my name.

In defence of the Palestine people
I have complained my car didn’t start, how middle-class
I have become complaining about unimportant banality
instead of writing about the plight of the Palestinians
who has endured having their land stolen and also?
Losing the little they have left of land and olive trees
to the unspeakable settlers.
Israel has demonized the Arab and demonized us who
write about the inequity into silence.
I have noticed when I write about this conflict on other sites
It is overlooked and not commented upon.
There was a time in Norway, when my uncles fought to help
the Jews and suffered for it, torture and long jail terms.
Today the situation is different Israel picked up the mantles
of Nazism and ran with it.
I have no power but, I can defend the Palestinians in
the knowledge that history is on my side.
The truth is stifled but never killed.

The Maker of violets and roses
Gave a land to the tribes led by Moses
In antiquity
For eternity
And all of humanity knows it.
