Preface by Gino d'Artali: Why this extra page and moreso about the Israel's attempt to genocide the Palestinian people? Well, first of I especially and also think about the murder of the appraised Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu-Akleh by an Israeli sniper. I'm sure she's turning in her grave now, shouting in anger and grief for the by now thousands of innocent people being killed and only because they are Palestinian and claiming their rights namely a long and free Palestina.
So as a tribute to her and to the Palestine people my contribution, how little it may be, to their struggle.
(And read more here about how I reported about the brave and heroic Shireen Abu-Akleh: www.cryfreedom.net/Shireen-Arab-League.htm

<<Israel kills 3,000 children, 1,700 women in Gaza
News Center- Since the <Operation Al-Aqsa Flood> launched by Hamas on Israel on October 7, Israel has been carrying out attacks on the Gaza Strip, targeting civilians and their settlements. On Thursday, the UN General Assembly held an emergency special session on the Israel-Palestine crisis. Speaking at the emergency special session, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian ambassador to the UN, called on the international community to vote to stop the ongoing Israeli aggression against Palestinians. <Three thousand children in Gaza were killed by Israel in the last almost three weeks. 1,700 women were killed by Israel in the past two weeks. There are 1,600 Palestinians remaining trapped under the rubble in Gaza, including 900 children, and we do not know their fate,> he said. He also shed light on the currently collapsed healthcare system in Gaza, reminding that <UN staff and doctors in Gaza are paying a heavy price for their work. Hospitals are coming to a halt, while neighborhoods are being destroyed, while people are fleeing from one place to another with nowhere safe to go.>
'More than 19,000 people in Gaza have been wounded'
He also said that More than 19,000 people in Gaza have been wounded as a result of Israel's war on Gaza, with many having been treated in hospital hallways, due to overcrowding in hospitals, and their frequent use as shelters for fleeing Gazans. <1,000 Palestinians are now killed every single day. Israel has destroyed over 40% of all homes, making an entire population homeless and displaced,> he noted. Riyad Mansour called on the UN General Assembly to <vote to stop the killing>, urging them to allow <humanitarian aid to reach those whose very survival depends on it. Vote to stop this madness>.>>

<<'Struggle and resistance are the only way to regain stolen land'
Tunisia- Since the attacks of Hamas on Israel on October 7, hundreds of civilians have been killed in Palestine in Israel attacks targeting many places, including hospitals. In an interview with NuJINHA, Tunisian feminist activist Raja Dahmani said, <Despite the great sadness over the situation in the Gaza Strip, we must rise up and raise the voice of truth to support the Palestinian cause. We have the capacity to prevail against the oppressor and usurper. Those protect American imperialism and all its agents are unfair to Palestinians.>
'Bombardments on hospitals are a violation of international conventions'
Pointing to the difference between the puppet governments and people, Raja Dahmani also commented on the bombardments on the hospital in the Gaza Strip. <The bombardment on the hospital is an intentional massacre and genocide that no human being can accept and remain silent. I condemn the attack on the hospital, targeting children, babies, women and sick people. Bombardments on hospitals are a violation of all international conventions. Israel must be held accountable for its barbaric attacks.>
'Palestinians refuse to be forcibly displaced'
She added, <Today, Palestinians are killed because they refuse to be forcibly displaced and prefer death instead of living elsewhere. We know that Israel has a strong diaspora and it openly tries to steal the Palestinian land. Struggle and resistance are the only way to regain stolen land.> >>

<<Women march in Istanbul against war, massacre, genocide
News Center- Over the call of the Women are Stronger Together Platform, many women gathered in front of the building of the Israel Consulate General in Istanbul’s Beşiktaş district last night to protest Israel's attacks on Palestine. Holding a march, the women carried banners reading, <We stand with Palestinians>, <Palestinian women are not alone>, <The people of Rojava are not alone>, <Women's solidarity will exceed borders>, <Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Women, Life, Freedom)> and <People resist from Rojava to Gaza>. After the march, the women read a statement. The statement was read by Selin Top on behalf of the women.
'Women try to keep more than a million children alive'
Pointing to 12-day Israel's attacks on Palestine, killing thousands, the statement said, <Women have been trying to keep more than a million children alive. The evacuation routes have been targeted by Israel's airstrikes.> The statement also mentioned the Israeli airstrikes that targeted Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza and killed more than 471 people.
'We have no tolerance for the hypocrisy'
<We know how states applaud when hospitals and schools are bombed from Rojava,> the statement said: <Some states are always victims although they kill people. Palestinians and Kurds are always guilty even if they are killed in the bombardments on hospitals. Yesterday, those who claim that they are against occupation extended the mandate that allows Turkiye to launch cross-border operations in Syria and Iraq for another two years. We have no tolerance for the hypocrisy of those who say no to the war in Palestine while saying yes to the war in Rojava and Karabakh.>
'We stand with the Palestinian women'
Highlighting that most of the killed people in Palestine are women and children, the statement added, <As women, we stand with the Palestinian people and Palestinian women. Türkiye must stop its commercial relations with Israel now. The siege imposed on Gaza must be lifted now.> >>

Feminist Manifesto
Jinha - Womens News Agency - October 16, 2023
<<Joint statement by feminists: We express our solidarity with Palestinian resistance
News Center- A joint statement has been released by the Iraqi Women Network, JÎN Women Association, Kohl Journal, Kyp community, Namaa Women For Culture Development, Nassawiyat, World March of Women- Lebanon (Marche mondiale des femmes - Liban), The Sex Talk Arabic, Eastern Sudanese Women, NOUN Solidarity Rural Feminists, Takatoat, Feminist Consciousness Revolution, FEMALE, Aswat Nissa and SLETATE. The statement entitled, <A Feminist Manifesto: Anti-colonialism is a feminist issue” said, <We, the undersigned feminist groups and institutions, express our solidarity with Palestinian resistance in all its forms and stand firmly against injustice and colonization.>
'We reject any stigmatisation or scepticism of this resistance'
<As feminists within these groups and institutions, we, like millions of women in the region, reject any stigmatisation or scepticism of this resistance as anything other than an anticolonial liberation struggle, one that will only conclude with the liberation and restoration of the historical land of Palestine and all bodies oppressed under the military and structural despotism of Western settler colonialism in Palestine.
'We see Palestinian resistance as an integral part of our struggle for a just world'
We view feminism as both a liberatory thought and a practice that combats injustice and oppression, primarily seeking to enforce justice and dismantle power imbalances. Palestinian resistance in all its forms represents a legitimate practice for confronting a ruthless colonial system that has abused and denied the lives of millions for decades. We commend it and see it as an integral part of our struggle for a just world. Colonial and liberal discourses attempt to construct a single model of feminism: the feminism of the white bodies in the metropoles (Europe and North America). It is a form of feminism constricted to a so-called <human rights> framework created by colonial powers and employed in the sustenance of their interests. Liberal feminism is puzzled by any departure from this model and strives to negate and erase it. Consequently, our feminism faces disparagement and scepticism because it supports liberatory practices that challenge and threaten existing colonial and patriarchal systems at once; the armed resistance of the Palestinian people is one of those saluted practices. Liberal/White feminism inattentions the oppressed in the Global South and acts patronisingly, through conditioned funding at times and militarised oppression at others. Liberal/white feminism claims to rescue select categories of women and individuals from their societies. It repeatedly attempts to strip us of the intersectional foundations of our intellectual selves. The collective armed struggle is an indomitable path towards the liberation of land and body from colonialism and its occupation.
'We call on all our allies to unequivocally stand behind all forms of Palestinian resistance'
We refuse anyone's attempt at denying or questioning our feminism or any feminism that declares its support of a resistance linked to religious parties. We reject being pigeonholed into these simplistic dichotomies. Our feminism has taught us to understand the contradictions in which we live and to act accordingly. We decide our battles and contradictions. Our struggle against Israeli colonisation is inseparable from the freedom and security of the entire region's people. Our feminism has taught us to understand our positions, map our alliances, and amplify the voices of the marginalised without dictations or conditions.
We, the undersigned feminist institutions, journals, and groups, call on all our allies in the struggle for justice to unequivocally stand behind all forms of Palestinian resistance. Let us not succumb to the narratives of liberal and white feminists, but rather support the Palestinian people and their resistance through all available means. You can share this statement and reach out to us to add your voice to ours.> >>

Supporting opinion by Gino d'Artali: In 2021 I distanced myself from the Western feminists with these words: Back then I started with a monthly follow-up of the international women's day and onwards. But in my opinion something has changed within the ranks of the of the Western women i.e. 'feminists' because they hardly stand on the barricades anymore. Shame on them because their's still a lot one should fight for! And that's why I called it 'The feminist revolution/Perpetrators exposed!' from then on. But at first my attention shifted to the Afghanistan Women's Resistence and since then I've been more and more concentrating more and more and also what is happening in Iran and I'd say again and more and more also the Middle-east where feminism kind of was and is re-born. Thus dear sisters, forget about the Western feminists, there aren't any left. Instead keep fighting on your terps and beat the male oppressors!

Journalist in Gaza

<<Israel keeps targeting journalists in Gaza
Gaza- Israel keeps targeting journalists covering the Israeli attacks on the besieged Gaza Strip. Until now, 11 Palestinian journalists have been killed, 20 more have been injured and two journalists have been missing in Gaza since the Israel-Palestinian war began on October 7. Palestinian journalist Saba Abu Amra said, <The Gaza Strip has been attacked every day. 52% of the killed people are women and children. There are 50,000 pregnant women in the Gaza Strip and 5,500 of them will give birth this month. All hospitals are about running out of generator fuel and basic supplies. Many hospitals are out of service because the buildings around them were targeted and destroyed by Israel. In addition to pregnant women, there are cancer and kidney patients, who need treatment.>
'There are people still trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings'
Saba Abu Amra pointing to the people still trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings. <They are waiting to be rescued. More than 470,000 people have been displaced because of Israel's airstrikes. They have taken shelter in the southern Gaza Strip. There are concerns of the spread of infections due to the lack of water. Israel has violated the international conventions by targeting civilians. As Palestinian journalists, we have been deliberately targeted since the beginning of the attacks, even though we have press ID cards. In addition, dozens of press outlets have been targeted,> Saba Abu Amra told NuJINHA.
'Solidarity is needed to protect journalists'
Speaking about the reports of the international press outlets on the war, she said, <Some press outlets blame Palestinians. Some reported that Israeli children were beheaded. Then, a CNN reporter issued an apology and said that the reports were not confirmed. The aim of such fake news is to end the international solidarity for the Palestinian cause and the demonstrations demanding an end to the Israeli attacks on Palestinians. If Israel keeps targeting journalists, journalists will not be able to report the facts and the crimes committed by Israel will be covered up. International solidarity is needed to protect Palestinian journalists so that they will report what is happening here impartially.> Speaking about the report released by the Freedom committee at the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, she said, <According to the report, 11 Palestinian journalists have been killed in the airstrikes on the Gaza Strip since October 7. About 20 journalists' homes have been destroyed completely and some partially in the airstrikes. The buildings of about 50 press outlets have been destroyed by Israel's attacks on the Gaza Strip. Many Palestinian journalists have received threats on social media platforms.> Saba Abu Amra also told us that the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate sent a letter to the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ). <In the letter, the syndicate called on all press outlets to adhere to the journalistic values and to be impartial.> >>

<<Palestinian activist: Women are subjected to torture in Al-Aqsa Mosque's courtyards
Gaza- The Israel-Palestine conflict that started following <Operation Al-Aqsa Flood> by Al-Qassam Brigades, military wing of Hamas, has entered its fourth day. In an interview with NuJINHA, Palestinian activist Zarifa Abu Qura said that they have not witnessed such an attack in the Gaza Strip before.
'Civilians, women and children pay the price'
Speaking about the warning of Israel for people living in certain areas to leave, she said, <Women living in the border areas face a difficult condition. There is a stampede because people try to flee from these areas. Many civilians, including children and women, were killed and injured without receiving any warning. Civilians, women and children pay the price of this conflict. After the warning of Israel for people living in certain areas to leave in 10 minutes, women had a difficult time because mothers did not want to leave their children. This caused a stampede injuring many people, especially children.>
'Women and girls are subjected to rape and harassment'
Zarifa Abu Qura also said that the main roads connecting the Gaza Strip to other areas are completely damaged so people cannot go to safe places. <This situation increases the suffering of women and people with special needs. Just yesterday, 160 buildings were targeted and destroyed within hours. The Gaza Strip has become like an abandoned house. The situation in schools is not better; some of them were targeted in the airstrikes. We have learned that women and girls are subjected to rape and harassment in the places they have taken shelter due to the chaos in the besieged city.>
'There is no safe place for women and girls to take shelter'
Highlighting that there is no safe place for women and girls to take shelter, she said, <There is no safe place in the Gaza Strip where women can take shelter, there are no shelters available to protect themselves from attacks by warplanes and drones. The buildings of some centers and organizations providing services to women were also targeted. The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that some hospitals and ambulances were also targeted by airstrikes. Since Israel cuts electricity supplies, generators have been used in hospitals to maintain essential services. There are many people waiting for treatment in the courtyards and corridors of hospitals due to the lack of beds.> At the end of her speech, Zarifa Abu Qura called on the international community to immediately push both parties to declare a ceasefire and lift the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.>>
