    How do buildings get built? Most of the buildings I have seen pictures of are reinforced concrete; are you entirely reliant on shipments of concrete and steel rebar for buildings? Or is it possible to get wood and bricks?

    In Cuba, under the years of the embargo and especially during the “Special Period” in the 1990s after the Soviet Union fell, people everywhere became handymen and tinkerers, to the point where they keep repairing their own cars for decades, and they assemble their own electronics from scavenged parts. Has something similar been going on in Gaza since 2006? And did this change at all after October 2023?

    ثورة حتى النصر !

      It is true that most of the buildings are made of concrete, because the population density in Gaza is so large that we cannot build wooden houses. It is true that most of the things we manufacture in Gaza know manufacturing better and more than manufacturing in Egypt. And most Arab countries because most of them depend on exports

    I’m very sorry for what my stupid evil country does. palestine-heart Internationally, Israel has lost so much support that I think it’s just a matter of time now. The fascists are going to lose.

      I want to go to Jerusalem. I want to go everywhere in Palestine, and I really hope that it will be liberated as soon as possible.

    As an American I just want to say how sorry I am that the US keeps helping Israel. I wish there was more we could do to stop it, but honestly the US is basically an occupied country at this point and most people don’t even realize it. Which brings me to my question, do most Palestinians at this point realize that they are being genocided, and that Israel intends to eradicate you all? Or are some still deluding themselves into believing that if they’re really good boys and girls then Israel will stop one day?

    Do the Palestinian people actually care if Harris or Trump is the American president?

    Also I give my complete love and respect to the Palestinian people in their struggle against Israel. I have such deep admiration for Palestine and hope for liberation soon.

        I am so sorry that they are the ones tasked with representing you in the international stage.

        Do you think things would have slowly gotten even worse than they are now if the PA had won the elections instead of Hamas?

    What do you think of the western image of Hamas as religiously conservative islamists who wants to oppress women, LGBTQ people etc.?

    Is there any internal opposition to the resistance inside Gaza? Is there people who wants to align themselves with the west and believe that some sort of deal can be worked out with the zionists?

      not much to ask just here to say the +20k people here are with you, and if, instead of protesting in the streets we could fight with you, we wouldnt hesitate

      The problem is if you want to fight and go to Gaza, the Egyptian government will prevent you. My friend, the people closest to us have sold us out.
