After drawing the borders, he now dominates the borders. He controls our roads and what passes through them. He can, and does, clog the arteries of our nation.

Armed military police on UBC campus today to protect IOF war criminals invited to compete at sporting events as though they didn’t serve in an army that has killed at minimum a child every 30 minutes for the past 16 months. Monitoring from the rooftops like snipers.

Fascism hates books, hates the people who write them, publish them, print them, sell them (unless of course they’re books of fascist propaganda). So we must keep making them and they must be revolutionary. May Mahmoud and Ahmed break the chains of the occupation ⛓️‍💥
