In Gaza all 12 universities & 356 schools have been destroyed or damaged, 5K students & 250 teachers have been killed, & 625K students haven't attended school in 6 months—but the politicians enabling this atrocity instead condemn Jewish & Muslim students for standing united for justice for Gaza.
These students are not antisemitic, & the anonymous provocateurs spewing antisemitic bile must be condemned. Do not let such bigots eclipse the noble cause for justice our young people are exemplifying.
even Biden himself is calling the protestors #antisemitic - this is purely for Israeli propaganda, easy to see where Biden's loyalties lie, and they aren't for the majority people who voted for him.

He's crying, saying that he wants his hand back .Ibrahim says that the doctors told him he can if he was able to get outside of gaza for medical attention as soon as possible, he asks for anyone to put an end to the bombing so he could get proper treatment.
Translation:
"-Why are you crying?
I want to go back to holding my hand. I want to feel my hand.
My two cousins have been killed and I got injured. Please stop the war, that's what we want. We want to go back to our homes, we want to go back to live and to walk like before. They don't care about anything, they don't care about us. For the rest of my life I only want to feel my hand again, please. The doctor told me if you want your hand to grow back you have to get treatment abroad, immediately."
Then the man goes into explaining ibrahim's situation. Please if anybody knows how to help get Ibrahim the medical treatment for prosthetic limbs do everything you can, before he loses the remaining parts of his hand, share this on all platforms. And most importantly keep demanding a ceasefire. This has to stop.
