My sister and nieces and nephews are there. They’ve been protesting BIBI for months. Fight for a two state solution. Israelis are Jews and Arabs and all colors. There is so much complexity to this. But make NO MISTAKE Hamas is a terror organization who’s mission statement is kill all Jews. This fucking world breaks my heart
Noa was partying in the south of Israel in a peace music festival when Hams terrorists kidnapped her and dragged her from Israel into Gaza.
Noa is held hostage by Hamas.
She could be your daughter, sister, friend.

More than 3,500 men in Australia are estimated to have died from prostate cancer in 2022. As those diagnosed are expected to reach 372,000 by 2040, @PCFA wants more funding to fight the disease commensurate with other major cancers like breast cancer.
