Da pacem Domine
I see Israel are assassinating more journalists in Gaza.
Sickening. This murderous regime is on its way out, surely. The Hague awaits.
Today, Gaza lost another brave voice. Journalist Anas Al-Sharif was killed while doing what he did best telling the truth the world needed to hear. For months, he showed you our hunger, our grief, our courage. He stayed when it would have been safer to leave, and now he is gone.."
