Rafah is a city of 170,000. 1.3 million people have tried to seek shelter there. It takes up this little corner of Gaza. All of Gaza is the size of Philadelphia.Rafah is a city of 170,000. 1.3 million people have tried to seek shelter there. It takes up this little corner of Gaza.

At what point in this story do good people decide their only option for survival is violence? If you've tried your best to escape the terror around you, and still it follows you wherever you are able to go, is your only choice to stand and fight back with anything you have to hand?

Also worth mentioning that Rafah is a famous border crossing into Egypt, and Egypt has shut the border down since the start of the invasion. Palestinians have literally no where to run.

Of course that slightly darker part of the map in the bottom left is a different country that connects to a whole 'nother continent with plenty of room, but that different country has barred their entry

Look at all that lovely territory that's been opened up for more Settlers. Illegal Settlers. Odd how the US always backs the despots... despots more than willing to buy US arms. Except, in this case, the US is gifting Israel the money to buy the US arms. If karma exists, the US is f--cked.

In the Gaza strip babies are being born in latrines. Invasion and killing. Bombing and massacre. Welcome to the most dystopian country of the world. With a little help of his old friend: USA. And Germany says all is OK. No justice since 1948
