Wa Alaikum salaam! Thank you for giving voice to my own thoughts and bringing them to the world… this morning I attended a Doctors Against Genocide zoom which called for the Medical establishment to be held responsible for not responding to the fate of their fellow doctors in the genocide inflicted on Palestinians… they are also calling for ‘free clinics’ to be established on university campuses to help treat the ‘ptsd’ that more than a year of barbaric violence live-streamed to the world has caused… I have yet to go through my notes to underline the main points brought up in the almost three hour zoom.

There will be another zoom 8-11am tomorrow calling for a nationwide strike... you can register here:

Worked for me … just now… should open up to a page to register for the zoom session this morning… check into Doctorsagainstgenocide.org

I know the AI is working overtime…my SubStack page froze after I liked and shared an article Matthew Hoh had written on Palestine.

Agreed, Cara. So much is at stake, and the slaughter must stop. Israel and the USA and its allies must be held accountable.

Is there any hope Cara for those millions of Israeli minds so heavily indoctrinated that they see Palestinians as ‘human animals’?

Did you meet many Israeli’s in the West Bank?(not counting the uniformed ones on checkpoints)

Thank you so much for your words and deeds. I hope you won't mind if I share my Christmas Poem with you:

Longing For the Light of Christmas - 202x

Time to think of Christmas as we come to the end of the year

Sights of Santa, gifts and toys, filled with holiday cheer

Pour the eggnog, lift a toast, raise a mug of hot mulled wine

Recounting family tales of a happier, fun-filled time

This year is it possible to sing again of Joy and Holy Night?

Dream of roasting chestnuts and frosty snow so white?

“O Little Town of Bethlehem”

Never was my favourite hymn

I’d rather hear of Three Wise Kings

Or herald angels sing

But this year it’s the only one

I can bear

Witness with.

“Yet in thy darkness shineth

The Everlasting Light.”

Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem,

“How still we see thee lie!”
