“Do you wish to return home”?

      Letter to Israel of the Zionist Settlers

“These leaflets were dropped on Gaza's starving population today. It's one more clear and cruel way Israel is telling the Palestinians in Gaza that they are being deliberately targeted, starved, and uprooted.”

Muhammad Smiry - 20 January 2024

"Is home the walls your soldiers turned

into rock and rubble

or the crater left in the middle of the road,

a bed for the corpse to sleep

so soundly within?

Is home a place patrolled by rabid dogs

where the sky only rains fire and blood

on a people dying of thirst?

Is home..."
