No one can say they didn't know. No one can claim blindness to this suffering. No one can pretend their ears did not hear the cries of children. But when it's over, and history books are written. Those who were silent or celebrated this, will say to their grandchildren: "Wasn't that a tragedy" "We had no idea of the horrors" "We never supported it" "Had we known what was happening....". Well technology has given us one wonderful tool: information. History will no longer be written by the victors, but the people of Palestine who documented and recorded every aspect of their torture and annihilation. Who documented and recorded this for the world to never forget, to expose silence as support and to make sure their plight will be told in one way, and one way only: the truth. 📸: Gaza, yesterday. Waiting for aid.
