Two hundred years of survival.
My great grandmother, Lily Ebert, an Auschwitz survivor, and Walter Bingham, a Kindertransportee. Both 100 years old.
They are symbols of resilience, having devoted decades to teaching the world about the Holocaust to ensure we never forget.

Over 80 years ago, headstones that once stood in the #Brest-Litovsk Jewish cemetery, #Belarus, were desecrated. These have been discovered over the last 20 years & will finally come to rest in a stunning memorial.

And others who have worked so hard to bring these stories to a wider audience. It is impossible to start to comprehend the #Holocaust without knowledge of the holocaust in the East and occupied #Soviet territories. #NeverAgain These stories need to be told #JewishHeritage //

Angeline was a nurse from the Philippines who was caring for her elderly patient, Nira on Kibbutz Kfar Gaza. Despite having a chance to flee the Hamas terror attacks, Angeline showed unbelievable humanity and loyalty by remaining Nira’s side during the violence, resulting in both of them being brutally murdered by Hamas. Unimaginable honor in the face of evil. 💔

Personal Thoughts:
(not for everyone, feel free to skip)
For the longest time, I struggled with my identity.
A Palestinian kid born inside Israel. Like…wtf.
Many of my friends refuse to this day to say the word “Israel” and call themselves “Palestinian” only.
But since I was 12, that did not make sense to me.
So I decided to mix the two and become a “Palestinian-Israeli”
I thought this term reflected who I was.
Palestinian first. Israeli second.
But after recent events, I started to think.
And think.
And think.
And then my thoughts turned to anger.
I realized that if Israel were to be “invaded” like that again, we would not be safe. To a terrorist invading Israel, all citizens are targets.
900 Israelis died so far. More than 40 of them are Arabs. Killed by other Arabs. And even 2 Thai people died too.
And I do not want to live under a Palestinian government.
Which means I only have one home, even if I’m not Jewish:
Israel.
That’s where all my family lives. That’s where I grew up. That’s the country I want to see continue to exist so I can exist.
Palestine should exist too as an independent state. And I hope to see the country thrive and become less extreme and more prosperous. I love Palestine and have invested in Palestine.
But it’s not my home.
So from today forward,
I view myself as an “Israeli-Palestinian”.
Israeli first.
Palestinian second.
Sometimes it takes a shock like this to see so clearly.

We are devastated at the news in #Israel.
We're a charity that works to support Jewish people who are still trying to come to terms with the trauma of the Holocaust. We are a charity that helps people learn the lessons of how civil society is broken down through hate..1/2
