Oh, my goodness. Every time I read a Mosab Abu Toa poem I weep. He brings me closer to the horror than any video or news story could. Thank you for giving him your platform.
I probably should not have watched this at work. This is truly the most painful thing I hear about on a daily basis. I read horrible posts blaming the victims for not moving out of the way, or voting for their government that puts them in harms way, or just refusing to address the obvious pain or qualify it with October 7th. If you can see or hear the nightmare presenting itself and think that there could be justification, then you need to speak to someone, you need a professional, you need perspective. This is genocide. This is murder. FREE PALESTINE!
I would also like to ask if there is a chance it would be ok to share this on social media, so that anyone who feels brave enough to hear the pain can listen.
This poem by Mosab Abu Toha is very powerful, bringing home to the listeners the suffering experienced by the people in Gaza, day in day.
Well done @Zeteo providing this special content marking one year since the attacks on Oct 7th and the devastating genocidal war in Gaza that's followed.
Thank you for sharing Mosab Abu Toa’s heart breaking poem. I can’t get his words out of my head and that is the type of impact that is needed to draw attention to the suffering.
How something so horrific can be beautiful at the same time shows the deep humanity of Mosab Abu. May his words infiltrate the hearts and minds of the US government and make them stop supplying Israhell their weapons of death.
Feeling very empty in recent days and hearing this made this feeling even stronger. I often thought about how we in the west failed the people in Gaza, Palestine and Lebanon. That all what we did (or not) wasn`t enough, that we couldn`t change anything.
That all i can think about these days. We failed them. We absolutely did.
Thank you for the truth of your words that describe such horror it is hard to read without tears. My tears are nothing to those in Palestine becoming maimed and martyred. Pray for them all.
Thank you for sharing this. I have turned to Mosab’s poems over and over again throughout the past year. His poems help me stay in touch with my humanity.
So hard to read .... words seem to cling to one's soul. Is it necessary to support an ally who provokes wars, or kills thousands of civilians (including children) to catch a "bad guy"? Has initial goal to return the hostages in Gaza to Israel faded from memory?

So beautiful, yet so full of pain. We who stand by are perpetuating this horror.

The West does not have to fail. We merely have to stop dropping huge bombs on a house on fire.
Oh what we could do with that money!
Oh yeah, I 100% agree.. Just imagine what one could do with half of the US military budget.
