With every day that passes, my country is getting bombed, my people are martyred and displaced, and my heart is breaking over and over again. Fear and anxiety are crippling, anger is debilitating, but how can I fight those feeling, faith in Allah SWT is the only thing that helps me everyday, as I believe that no matter how strong the enemy is, Allah is the strongest, almighty, and from the Pharos to Quraish, all got defeated with the power of Allah. Keep praying we witness this soon.
F for Falasteen and Lebanon
Last Sunday, I drove to Beirut to check on my home, at the outskirts of Dahieh, where three apartments from the building across from the street were hit and where they had carpet bombed, as it was broadcasted live, several areas which led to the assassination of Nasrallah, who apparently had approved on the same day on a ceasefire truce.
The drive was fueled with both fear and anger, and memories of 2006 war. Throughout this week, the attacks were all over Lebanon, from the Shouf, to Bekaa, Beirut, North and South, using the white phosphorus too, anywhere is a target for Israel. And their main target is to occupy Lebanon again as they had started with attempts of ground invasion, while Iran sent more than 120 missiles two days ago targeting several locations in Israel. As for Palestine, in few days would be one year of the intensive war on Gaza that is till ongoing with the same Israeli genocidal determination.
