@liamomaraiv.bsky.socialState violence in the #FirstIntifada was severe, even against #nonviolent activists. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1990, in the #TempleMountKillings, Israeli #police killed 17 #Palestinians and wounded over 100 near the #DomeOfTheRock in #Jerusalem, inspiring more retaliatory violence.
@frepalestine.bsky.socialWhat does a child remember when his childhood unfolds during an uprising?
Some memories never leave you.

@liamomaraiv.bsky.socialFollowing the #FirstIntifada in #Palestine, a large #HungerStrike was launched by #Palestinians in Israeli custody on #ThisDayInHistory in 1992. One died as a result, while several non-prisoners were killed and many injured when #IDF attacked demonstrations backing the strike.
@frepalestine.bsky.socialWhat happened to Ghazi?
The search for a senior Palestinian freedom fighter
Ghazi was more than a name from my childhood. He was a missing piece of my family’s story

@frepalestine.bsky.socialWhat happens when a child grows up learning that the world around him is not what he was told it was?
History isn’t just something you read about. Sometimes, you grow up inside it.
