The Gaza Genocide in its on-the-ground reality in the rubble of Gaza, particularly northern Gaza, has a magnitude of atrocity never before recorded.
As Israel reduces its military presence in Gaza, rejuvenating troops, preparing for the invasion of Rafah, we cycle further on our mountain bikes to find moms and their infants and those moms needing birthing help. We pray our list is alive. This is busy work. It seems like nature says ‘have babies’ when the human race is seriously threatened with extinction. Even mother nature has said this is a genocide. Trust women’s intuition.
A 1st person anecdotal account of today in Gaza by Behar Abbasi in Gaza.
The bodies are everywhere. We smell them before we see the protruding skeletal indications protruding from weather-washed rubble of an arm or a shoulder, a head or a foot. Babies, mostly. We can do nothing. We move on quickly to help more moms and more babies.
Israel has redefined inhumanity. The Gaza Genocide in its on-the-ground reality in the rubble of Gaza, particularly northern Gaza, has a magnitude of atrocity never historically recorded in the past.

Three hundred and twenty food-aid trucks, many from Jordan, have entered Gaza but the people who need food the most are too weak to get up and go. Wherever we go we are organizing the older children to stand in line, get food, then go to their family and feed the weakest persons first. We are seventeen women on the move. We have organized dozens of communities’ activities to feed the most in need. We engage the children in cooperating groups. They are the true angels of mercy, and the sector of the population devastated the most.
Giving children a mercy mission gives them their reason to be. We ask malnourished adults too weak to move to praise and thank their children as if they are angels, because they are angels. Gazan children are beautiful because they are so eager to help others.
The bombardment-survivor Palestinian children are beyond wonderful—they are perfect angels. No matter what atrocities the Israeli-Nazis do to the Palestinians, the Gazans convince me there is hope for the human race.
Gazans are made of steel and love.
The Palestinian family is a beautiful thing. That is why my sister Dr. Buni came here from Syria to help women so many times, no matter the risk. Palestinian families are so much like the Arabs of Syria where B is from.
That’s why the occupation forces bombed Dr. B and her clinic, because helping Palestinians is forbidden by the Netanyahu government.
I have lived in Yemen for years and in recent times went to Iran to organize our women there to protect schoolgirls who did not wish to wear hijab. Because of those experiences I am familiar with the horrible conduct of misogynistic violent men. They rape and kill.
The world does not need rapists and killers hence this type of men is useless. Allah says to clear this type from the path of righteousness.
Women in war zones can be beautiful by helping the trodden. Be beautiful by caring for someone who needs us the most. And be beautiful by teaching others what it means to be beautiful.
“Mass migration of a broken civilian population looks like many children killed and many more maimed, their little bodies missing parts, these children who have never been near anything Hamas, only their mommies and dads, uncles and aunties. They don’t understand. They are disfigured inside and out for life. How dare you do this to children.”|
I stopped and got off my bicycle after a distance from seeing a mother and a father each carrying a child amputee. The feelings welled up inside me. I know I must not stop and think but I did. I sobbed so hard I began to vomit. I was retching because my existence cannot intake any more of this sickness and brutality.
Ai’sha said with understanding, “I saw them too. They also had a little boy, a toddler, about two years old, limping along with them. I have some food. Can I go give them some.” Ai’sha left on her bicycle and I went on along our path. Ai’sha would catch up.
People are moving in family groups leaving Khan Younis to go to their destroyed homes to try and recover belongings. They are devastated by what they see. Civilian death and wanton destruction, meaningless destruction of playgrounds, toys, schools, children, everywhere. That’s what we see as the smoke clears.
The world needs to brace for some very bad news. The Hamas has lied trying to diminish the quantum of their failure. I have asked mayors of communities how many people from her or his area went to a hospital and the answer was, “None”.
In this horrific betrayal of the human race, Israel’s murder of babies like King Herod did over two thousand years ago, near here, no longer has the right to be a state. I now believe that the people of the world are going to enforce that totality. — Behar Abbasi

“That’s where the body counts come from. Hospitals. 12% of people in need make it to the hospital. The rest are uncounted. The population is below 2 million, say our biostatisticians.” —Behar
Walking north along the east wall, a mother sitting in the mud with her little girls sent one to meet me and nurse Ai’sha. She told me about her sister who was raped by several IDF soldiers. She is 13. We ended up spending two hours, starting an IV and getting HQ to contact Dr. Nassima to have someone meet us and take the child or she will die of sepsis and other causes. We don’t know where the new surgical clinic is located. The girl’s infections from the attacks on her have raged out of control. She needs clinical care.
Dr. Nassima has taken over Dr. Buni’s clinic which was destroyed along with a dozen women and their babies and three nurses. Dr. Nassima relocated with the help of Dr. B’s long-established patient community.
I asked the mother how she knew to flag me down. She said she remembered me from 2018. She said she had tried to get word to Dr. Buni or me but had no luck. Our invisibility is our safety. We do not have signs any longer. We do not have uniforms any longer. Our cars are junkheaps like everyone else, not fancy armoured SUVs. We blend into our world because we are part of our world wherein we have a specific role. We work for women as women. That means we do not grab for attention. We obey the righteous elements of the Quran and live by the Golden Rule.
Israel has violated humanity and defecated on the right to exist as a state.
Israel took on the responsibility of protecting the Palestinian people by militarily occupying their territory. Today, evil men steal the wealth of the people for their own pockets. An example of that betrayal is twelve different assignments of oil and gas rights to corporate entities connected to Benjamin Netanyahu and Joe Biden. In this horrific betrayal of the human race, Israel’s murder of babies like King Herod, leaves Israel with no longer the right to be a state. I now believe that the people of the world are going to enforce that totality. Probably we are now close to Armageddon. I am staring at the incipient steps done by the world’s disgusting, evil leadership taking us all to the end, unless we humans act against our mistakes, our leadership.

“One of the suggestions RINJ Women has made is that the parties look deeply at the beautiful assimilation of Palestinians and Israelis in Israel’s cities and seek a nationwide assimilation to create a one-state solution wherein the parties live together in free democracy and harmony. Eternal war has been an unhappy experience for everyone. Focus more on family love, prosperity, and happy communities. Let people privately practice any religion they choose.” — Banning Al Jazeera is a bad idea. We need to know truth.
