IF we celebrate Eid Israel could bomb us

Original Social Media Post

"There is no Eid in Gaza anymore. Not when the skies threaten death and even car rides feel dangerous. Mohammad, a young boy in Gaza, says he’s afraid to celebrate Eid or go to the park because he might get bombed. His only wish is for the war to end, so that he and his sister can feel what Eid used to be like, when children laughed instead of whispered, and when his sister's dresses, and visits to the park didn’t feel like acts of defiance. Now, he fears famine more than fireworks. He says there’s no atmosphere for joy, no space for celebration, just fear and silence. Video by: haneen.maher.salem on Instagram" - Source
