“France Holds World's First Memorial Ceremony for Victims of Hamas Oct. 7 Attack”
To a Palestinian, holding a memorial in memory of just one side’s tragic event, shows a story of ethnic supremacy. Especially when no western state holds memorials to commemorate more than 100K Palestinian victims of the 1948 Nakba massacres and ethnic cleansing up to this day. And as if our lives do not matter and we don’t exist. Explains why the western world cares less if Palestinians continue to live under occupation, siege and apartheid.

I know, I’m so disgusted by this. Palestinian lives do NOT count at all, do they, and they make no effort to hide it. This is causing an identity crises for me. Is this what being European has always been about and I was a fool all along?
