When life in Gaza was still normal.
Various foods were to be enjoyed.
Everything could be enjoyed easily and cheaply.
Satisfying the appetite of Gaza's culinary delights.

Really delicious typical Gazan dishes like...

shawarma , maqluba , shaksuka , mulukhiya , hummus , musakhan , manakesh , zaatar , zibdiyyit , sayadiyya , mansaf , falafel , qidra and many more.

Likewise with typical Gaza cakes such as...

kaak , baklava , kunafa , qatayef , harisa , warbat , basbousa , halva and many more.

Also typical Gazan drinks such as...

sahlab , barrad , maramiya , arak , kharoub , qamar al din , arabica coffe and many more.

When life was still normal people in Gaza always enjoyed it all.
But now life in Gaza is no longer normal because of the long chaos.
Scarcity of food and financial difficulties making life feel so heavy.
There are no longer delicious foods and people who are often hungry are forced to eat anything to survive.

They can only eat...

stale rice , lentil soup with bad taste , canned food and instant noodles that are almost expired , bread made from flour infested with worms and maggots , wild plants , animal fodder , and other inappropriate bad foods.

Day after day people in Gaza try to find anything to eat.
They eat just to survive from day to day.
If they are lucky enough to be able to get delicious food from volunteers.
It is a luxury for them.

THE MESSIAH
Buddhists are waiting for Maitreya.
Hindus are waiting for Avatara.
Christians are waiting for Jesus.
Muslims are waiting for Al Mahdi.
Whatever people call it , it is the same figure.
People have been waiting for that figure for too long.
But that figure never comes while the world is really chaotic.
I think it's better for me to be that figure myself.
The figure of the Messiah that looks like an apocalyptic fantasy hero.
It is not my ambition to become the Messiah.
No one will give me salary or allowance if I become the Messiah.
But I have been baptized in hellfire to become the Messiah.
So now is the time to fulfill my destiny as the Messiah.
Do you know what I will do when I become the Messiah ?!...
Will I bring peace to this rotten world ?!...
No , I will burn this rotten world until there is no more rot left.

CHICKEN SHAWARMA
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
A Gazan man named Omar hasn't eaten chicken for almost a year.
Because the price of chicken has risen so high that he can't buy it.
Omar can only look at the chicken being sold in the market.
He has even forgotten what it's like to eat chicken.
When he returned to the tent he only had a plate of rice.
Then he drew a chicken and put it on a plate of rice.
So he ate the rice while imagining the taste of chicken meat.

At night Omar prayed to God.
He prayed that he could eat chicken even just once.
He didn't care about dying but he wanted to be able to eat chicken first.

The next day several volunteers came to the refugee camp.
They went tent by tent to distribute food.
Children and people were happy to receive the food.
Then Omar also got a box of food.
When he opened , it turned out it was chicken shawarma.
Omar was so happy that he ate it quickly
He chewed the chicken while laughing happily.
For him this chicken shawarma was a luxury.
So after eating he expressed his gratitude.
Because his prayer last night had come true.

When the Nazzi besieged Leningrad it became a terrifying hell.
Everyday Nazzi planes bombarded the city many times.
As time went on Leningrad was increasingly destroyed.
People and children were starving and malnourished.
Nazzi troops blocked the supply of food , fuel and medicine.
The fate of the people and children in Leningrad was truly terrible.
Many died slowly and painfully.

Now history is repeating itself again.
Gaza has become the new
Leningrad in the third millenium.
A much worse hell and too terrible to be repeated again.
This terrible history is truly sad to repeat itself.

IT'S OVER NOW
Alvian Eleven Jan 20
After more than a year of long chaos in Gaza has finally ended.
The people of Gaza cheered and sang happily on the streets.
full of enthusiasm shouted
Allahu akbar !... Allahu akbar !...
And prostrated together while sobbing.
Celebrated the ceasefire and gratitude for surviving through the endless days of hell.
Now the hell is over and they can breathe a sigh of relief.
They are preparing to return to their destroyed homes.
Riding donkey carts with their family while smiling and keep saying.
Alhamdulillah... alhamdulillah... alhamdulillah...

FAREWELL TO GAZANS
Alvian Eleven Jan 27
If Gaza had not experienced a long period of chaos.
I would never have known the people of Gaza.
Been in contact with them through all social media accounts.
Created a deep mental and emotional bond for more than a year.

Usually every day I always thought about them and worried about them.
They always told me whatever was happening and what they were experiencing.
Fear , suffering , sadness , bitterness , tiredness , anxiety.
The feeling of loss the beautiful past , trapped in the painful present and questioned the uncertain future.
I also felt all of that every day until I felt no longer normal.
I lost sanity in my mind and my soul.
I lost enjoyment and pleasure in anything.
I lost my spirit to live.
I ignored all the important things until my life fell apart.
My life became a mess because I worried too much about their fates.
They were always threatened death everytime and everywhere.

When they felt fragile I gave them words of encouragement.
When they felt sad I gave them words of comfort.
When they were in despair I gave them words of hope.
Every day I was always there for them.
Virtually accompanied them through a long chaos full of suffering.

I also felt happy when they shared memories of the past.
Talked about nostalgia of their colorful past lives.
Their peaceful homes and neighborhoods.
Beautiful corners of their cities.
Their favorite places and streets.
Their pleasant habits.
Their fun moments.
All of that made me engrossed.

I was also happy when they shared about their daily life in the refugee camp.
They tried to enjoy whatever they could still enjoy.
They tried to do whatever they could still do.
Even though each day was full of difficulties , limitations and dangers. They could always smile and laugh.
As Mahmoud Darwish said.
We love life whenever we can.

Now the long chaos in Gaza has ended.
I feel so happy and relieved just like them.
I no longer have to think and worry about them every day.
They have regained peaceful days without any threats.
They can celebrate euphoria full of joy.

But I also feel sadness.
This means it's time to say goodbye to them.
I have to go back to restore my messy life.
Likewise , they have to rebuild their lives that have been destroyed.
So this is a farewell.
I will always miss them all.
Relationships with Gazans are the best thing that happened in the worst time.
I am grateful to have got to know Gazans.
See you all in the good time.

MARTYRS OF GAZA
There are too many martyrs in Gaza which continue to increase every day for over a year.
Souls who previously had life continue to be wiped out until they end up becoming statistics.
Refaat , Hind Rajab , Dr Adnan , Mahasen , Medo Halimy , Ismail Al Ghoul , Shaban , Uncle Khaled , Chef Mahmoud , Awni El Dous , Ayman , Heba Zagout , Fathi Ghaben , Hassan Hamad , Dr Thabat and tens of thousands of other martyrs.
If they were all written down in poems it would take years to write poems about them all.
But they should be written down in poems one by one.
At least with poems they can always be remembered.
So if you feel motivated to write poems about them , just write immediately.

During ramadan in Gaza.
Children always gather after iftar until suhoor.
They always play with fireworks that spin round and round.
The glow of light scatters in all directions.
It really looks bright in the middle of the dark night.
At least they can still feel joy and happiness.
In the middle of situation that is still full of difficulties and overshadowed by threats.

A SLICE OF LIFE
In the midst of the long chaos in Gaza.
All kinds of food are becoming scarce and the prices are rising higher.
People have difficulty to buy anything.
Children are thin and malnourished.

But there was a girl and her friend.
They received a lot of donations.
That's why they wanted to buy pizza.
A mushroom pizza that was too expensive and considered a luxury.

The pizza was sold in a streetside tent restaurant.
The girl and her friend came with enthusiasm.
They said eating pizza was their dream that must be fulfilled so that they will not regret if they die.
They just wanted to feel alive again with their favorite food that they had not been able to eat for a long time.

When the mushroom pizza was served on the table.
The girl and her friend couldn't wait to eat it.
They each took a slice of pizza and chewed it with satisfaction.
It was the first time they had eaten pizza again after not eating for so long.

But no one expected it.
A few minutes later Israeli jets bombed the street.
The tent restaurant was destroyed by the bombing.
Many people died instantly.

The girl also died while her friend was badly injured.
The girl's blood spilled on the table and soaked her pizza.
At least before she died she had time to eat a slice of pizza.
It was a slice of life that she could feel again before she finally died.

The new year 2025 has just begun.
Everyone is wishing for the new changes.

But

It's still the same old fear.
It's still the same old pain.
It's still the same old hell.

Unfortunately

There is no abracadabra for instant new changes.

So

If you want the new changes just do it yourself.
The rest just let the laws of cosmic work.

AMERICA IS DYING
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
America is dying.
Its people are getting poorer and sicker.
Losing their rights which are endlessly plundered by political clowns.
Those political clowns played by octopus tentacles.
The octopus called Israel is entrenched in the land of Palestine.
Getting fatter and more ferocious plundering the rights of the American people.
Some people are waking up and resist.
But they are being silenced by violence and nonsense law.
The rest of the people are still lulled in the mirage.
The illusion of democracy and the outdated dream of American glory.
Without realizing that America is dying.

GOOD NEW NORMAL

After 470 days of being trapped in long chaos.
The people of Gaza can now feel relieved.
They can sleep soundly without fear of being bombarded.
They can eat well without having to go hungry again.
They can look at the clear sky without jet planes , helicopters , drones and quadcopters flying around.
They can hear the birds chirping without being disturbed by the buzzing of the zananas.
They can sing and dance until they are satisfied.
They can pray and bury the martyrs in peace.
And the morgue at the hospitals has been locked without a single corpse.
That's a good new normal for the people of Gaza.
So let the good roll on.

KEEP FIGHTING !
Alvian Eleven Mar 26
The feeling of powerlessness is very painful.
When you want change but you are unable to do it.
Change depends on many factors beyond your control.
You can only wait for a miracle but the miracle never comes.
While you are getting weaker , tired , desperate and helpless.
You want to give up but the voice inside you wants you to keep fighting.
It's all up to you whether you will give up or force yourself to keep fighting.
But calm yourself down for a moment.
Take a few deep breaths so your complicated thoughts can clear up a bit.
Then listen to the voice within you more clearly.
Yes , you have to keep fighting.
Keep fighting don't lose hope even if it seems to fade.
Keep fighting even though you are so tired and weak.
Keep fighting no matter how.
Keep fighting without knowing what it will be like.
Strengthen your fighting spirit and keep fighting !.

FAKE SMILE
Alvian Eleven Jan 27
A week after the cease fire a Gazan man named Yousef returned to the north.
He was riding a truck with other people through Salah Al Din street.
When he arrived at Tel El Hawa he walked limply seeing everything had been destroyed.
Then he arrived at his destroyed house not far from the beach.
He immediately prostrated while crying.
After that he sat in the rubble and continued to cry.
Because all his family had died when his house was bombarded a year ago.
For Yousef life has no meaning anymore after he lost everything.
Now he had nothing and doesn't have anyone.
He also doesn't know how to continue living.
But he still tries to smile to cover up his sorrow.
A fake smile that makes people think that he is fine.

Water spilled from her vessel.
To flood the old world.

The old world has decayed.
We have to flood it heavily.
To clean up all the rot.
The rot that has long consumed the world.

Flood the rotting America and Europa.
Flood with courage and sacrifice.
Until their rotten order is destroyed.
Then we create our own order.

Our order is for the new world.
A free and refreshing new world.
To restore our decent life.
Where we truly feel fully alive.

GOODBYE HOSSAM
Alvian Eleven Mar 24
Every time I open social media.
Bad things always happen in Gaza.
But today a week before Eid the worst thing I never expected happened.
A young journalist named Hossam Shabat has died on duty.
Died young like other journalists who died first.
Hassan Hamad , Ismael Al Ghoul , Ayman Al Ghadi , Omar Al Derawi and more than 200 other journalists in Gaza.
Hossam finally went to join them.

I have been following Hossam's X account for more than a year.
Hossam tirelessly continued to serve in North Gaza.
He knew that every time he served he was risking his life.
But he continued to serve without fear.
No matter what dangers were threatening.
But in the end his duty has ended.
Today is the end of his duty as a brave journalist.
He has earned his honor as a martyr of Gaza and I will never forget him.
I will always remember his face that always smiled.
Goodbye Hossam.

FLOUR CRISIS
After Eid the supply of flour in Gaza became increasingly scarce.
Everyday bakeries were filled with people queuing.
They jostled for hours just to buy a bag of bread.
Usually people who came in the morning got bread at noon.
There were also people who fought while queuing and then they were disappointed.
Because the bread had run out in the evening.
But now the situation is getting worse.
There are no more bakeries open because the supply of flour has run out.
Gaza is in a crisis of flour and all kinds of food.
People are starving again amidst endless chaos.

LIVING IN THE TENT
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
The tent should only be used for a week picnic.
But people in Gaza have been living in tents for more than a year.
On Tiktok you can see their daily life in the refugee camp.
And if you want to know how it feels.
Just imagine yourself in Gaza.

Summer is really torturous.
During the day it feels very hot in the tent.
Your body is full of sweat that flows profusely.
Then while you are sleeping rats and various insects will come in.
Crawling on the mattress , carpet or your body.
Mosquitoes also disturb your sleep every night.

Winter is also very torturous.
At night your body will shiver from the cold inside the tent.
If it rains very heavily the inside of the tent will be filled of ***** puddles.
Wetting the mattress , carpet and your belongings.
And the worst thing is that strong winds can tear the tent down.
If the tent collapses there will be no longer any shelter.

The worst of the worst are the unexpected various terrors.
Drones and quadcopters can suddenly attack.
Tanks and soldiers can also suddenly come to surround the refugee camp.
The most dangerous thing is that jet planes and helicopters can bombard tents at any time.
If the refugee camp is destroyed all people will be left displaced on the street.

Can you imagine all that ?!
You are lucky , you can still living in a safe and comfortable home.
And only see the suffering of people in Gaza on Tiktok.
If you are a weak person who is used to living in ease.
You will not survive even just a day.

The instinct to occupy is a primitive instinct.
But this primitive instinct does not disappear even though the era changes.
Now you can see how the progress of modern technology only become a tool to occupy.
The hi tech machines to slaughter people and children in Gaza.
So that the land of Gaza can be completely occupied by Israel.
With technology support from Google , Meta , Microsoft , Elbit , Lockheed Martin and others.

That man is me.
Me who loves you so much.
My love for you is unbearable.
I can't bear my love for you for too long.
So open your heart to me.

Let me marry you.

THE MOON
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
It's midnight the moon looks big and bright.
I look that moon on the edge of a quiet and dark rice field.
Near the train track on the outskirts of Surabaya.
Which goes towards Sidoarjo.

I'm taking a photo of that moon.
Then I immediately upload it to my Instagram account.
I see there are lots of photo posts from the people in Gaza.
It turns out they were also looking at the moon.

A few minutes ago Maha uploaded her photo.
She was sitting on the roof of the house with her cat.
She looked at the moon while drinking coffee.
Without caring that jet planes were bombarding the neighborhood in Deir El Balah.

Half an hour ago Omar uploaded his photo.
He was hanging out in front of the tent with his friends.
They were looking at the moon while smoking hookah.
Relaxing after helping volunteers in Khan Yunis.

Half an hour ago Mariam uploaded her photo.
She was sitting pensively in front of the tent.
She looked at the moon while remembering her family who had died.
Buried among the rubble of her house in Tel El Hawa.

An hour ago Dr Abraham uploaded his photo.
He was sitting on the balcony of Al Nasser Hospital.
He looked at the moon while complaining.
Tired of taking care of the injured people who were arriving.

An hour ago Saleh the journalist uploaded his photo.
He saw a group of young people dancing dabke and playing oud guitar.
They were standing together on the rubble of a building.
While the moon seemed to be shining brightly behind them.

This big and bright moon really looks beautiful.
Decorating the night of the people in Gaza.
Who are still trapped in the long chaos.
Without knowing when it will end.

Those kites were flown continuosly by Refaat's students.
Gave hope , spirit , encouragement and consolation.
To anyone who has seen those kites.

Refaat has taught his students how to make kites.
The kites are made from writings about struggle and resistance.
About life that is loved by souls who don't want to just be considered as numbers.
Because souls who love life deserve to live.

Until today Refaat's students are still flying kites.
Which means there is still hope to fight for.
And the whole world will not let the dying Palestinians fight alone.
Because the whole world has seen those kites , the whole world has become Palestine.

Trapped in chaos for too long.
People and children in Gaza are forced to endure unbearable stress.
Their brains produce too much cortisol to the point of excess.
They can no longer think clearly.
They are confused and don't know what to do.
They are tired , desperate and helpless.
They have forgotten what joy feels like.
A joy that they hope will make them laugh a little.
So their brains can produce endorphins as an antidote.

BIG MAC BURGER
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
Last night my friend came to my house.
He wanted to watch El Classico with me.
While bringing some Big Mac burgers from Mc Donald's.
Big Mac has been our favorite burger since we were kids.

But I didn't want to eat that burger anymore.
Even though it looked delicious it didn't make me appetite anymore.
I was looking at beef covered in tomato sauce.
But what I saw were pieces of flesh mixed with blood.

That's how the Big Mac burger now looks terrible in my eyes.
Coz McDonald's also regularly funds massacres in Gaza.
Even Israeli soldiers also eat Big Mac burgers before and after slaughtering people in Gaza.
So there is no choice for me but to boycott Mc Donald's forever.

There is no more chicken qidra for iftar or suhoor.
Because all food prices have skyrocketed.

Do you know how much a 20 kg sack of flour costs ?!...

More than $ 400.

That's the same price as a brand new Nintendo Switch.

PEOPLE POWER
Alvian Eleven Mar 25
Western governments are nothing more than a bunch of political clowns with blood on their hands.
The blood of Palestinian people and children.
Who are slaughtered every day by Israel.
With the tax money of the American, British and European people.
Tax money which should be the welfare rights of the people.

Demanding for justice and peace is futile.
What needs to be done is to fight and force them.
Take over the status quo that they have controlled for too long.
Any risk must be faced no other choice.
Americans must act radically.
British must act radically.
Europeans must act radically.
Radical action with courage , anger , unity and resilience.
Show them what people power looks like.

FURUSAWA SAN
Alvian Eleven Jan 14
Konbanwa Furusawa San !
You are like a modern ronin.
Fighting alone to support Palestine.
Four seasons have passed and you are still fighting.
In the middle of the hustle and bustle of Tokyo.
Full of apathetic people.
People coming home from work.
People enjoying the nightlife.
People carrying lots of shopping.
No one cares about you.
But you still speak out loud.
Speak out tirelessly for Palestine.
Trying to make people aware that genocide is happening in Gaza.
Even though people ignore you but you still try tirelessly.

Ganbatte kudasai Furusawa San !
you are used to seeing the sunrise in Japan.
But one day you will see the sunset in Palestine.
Palestine you fought for will finally be liberated.

GAZA GENOCIDE
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
Genocide is a very disgusting word.
The word genocide should have ended with the Srebrenica massacre.
The word genocide should not still exist after the third millennium.

But the reality is not like that.
Now you have seen how disgusting the genocide that is happening in Gaza. Endless barbaric massacres that can be photographed and recorded on video.
Uploaded to the internet by people in Gaza and then seen by the whole world.
Becoming a daily live horror show that continues to be watched via smartphone.
How disgusting it is to see genocide still happening in the midst of a modern civilization.

This genocide carried out by Israel is extremely disgusting.
International law and human right watch cannot stop Israel from continuing to carry out genocide for more than a year.
Meanwhile the hypocritical West actually supports genocide while talking about peace and humanity.
The West always denies and looks for justifications without caring that there is a lot of evidences that people all over the world have seen.
Also the western media and social media have become propaganda tools to distort the true reality.
The truth is silenced for pretext of hate speech and antisemitism.
The pretext of terrorism is also used to arrest people who support Palestine.

Now you understand how truly disgusting this sick modern civilization is.
We will no longer see the reality in the same way as before.
The genocide in Gaza has opened our eyes to see the true reality.
That the world order is full of rottenness covered with falsehoods.

If Anne Frank were still alive.
She would be an old granny now.
An old granny who supports Palestine.
Because the wound experienced by the Palestinian people are the same wound she felt during the holocaust.
That is the wound of the oppressed humanity.

ALL NEW PALESTINE
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
When the chaos in Gaza is over.
Even when all of Palestine land is liberated.
Nothing will be able to return what has been lost.
Material and non material that ever existed in life.

People and children who have been martyred cannot be brought back to life.
Hands and legs that have been amputated cannot be grown again.
Psychological trauma cannot be completely recovered.
Health that has deteriorated cannot be completely cured.
All the buildings in the city full of memories cannot be rebuilt as before.
All items full of memories cannot be purchased again.
Wasted age and time that has passed in vain cannot be returned.
Lost chances and opportunities also cannot be returned.
All the joy that was missed also cannot be returned.
Happiness that has faded cannot be felt again.
The lost warmth and togetherness also cannot be felt again.

Everything that has been lost must be let go.
There is nothing that can be done other than letting the past fade away.
For now and the future goal after goal must be fought for.
The smallest goal is to defend Gaza which has been completely destroyed.
The biggest goal is to get back all the land of Palestine that has been long occupied.
A new life will be built on the land from the river to the sea.
Regenerating new things of material and non material that make life worth living.

Once upon a time when Moses was preparing for the struggle.
Ramses II hanged the Jews every day.
If Moses did not surrender the Jews would continue to be hanged every day.
Then the Jews were divided between still supporting or blaming Moses.

Now Hamas has the same position as Moses.
If Hamas does not surrender the people of Gaza will continue to be massacred by Israel every day.
The rest will die slowly from starvation due to the blockade.
Then the people of Gaza are divided between still supporting or blaming Hamas.

This is history repeating itself.
Just different times and figures but the story remains the same.
This is about powerlessness , sense of urgency and loss of trust.

THEIR NORMAL WORLD
Alvian Eleven May 26
Do you know why the world just keeps quiet without caring about Gaza ?!... because people just want to live their normal life.
The suffering of people in Gaza is a disturbance to their normality.
They know that blood is being spilled non stop in Gaza.
But they don't care at all because it disturbs their normal life.
For them the world will always turn as usual.
The normal world that they want to always enjoy without caring about Gaza.
So what do you expect from people like them ?!..
Do you expect them to act for humanity ?!..
Don't be naive , in this world full of illusions what is called humanity is just an empty slogan.

FIGHTING SPIRIT
To all pro Palestine people.
Don't say 'sorry'.
Don't say 'failed'.
People in Gaza will feel frustrated with those words.
Move as best you can.
Fight as hard as you can.
That's what they expect from you.
Whatever action you take will have an impact even if it is slow.
Show your fighting spirit consistency to support Palestine in many ways.

FIGHT !
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
A woman in Gaza once said to me.
Don't be sad seeing our suffering.
Sadness will weaken you.
You have to feel the anger.
It will give you the strength to fight.
Fight for us with courage.
Because you are our only hope.

But I'm not the only one.
All over the world there are many people like me.
They are all fighting for Palestine to this day.
Protesting , demonstrating , boycotting.
Facing repressive authorities and sickening laws.
Without any single one giving up.
Nothing can stop us.

I BLAME EM ALL
Alvian Eleven Mar 20
I no longer enjoy eating rawon or soto.
I am no longer excited to drive my car around the city.
I no longer enjoy playing my Nintendo Switch games.
I no longer feel calm when sleeping.
I can no longer concentrate on my work.
I am no longer excited to travel to various cities.
I can no longer relax listening to music while drinking coffee.
I no longer feel relieved smoking my cigarette.
I can no longer focus on managing my life.

Do you know why ?!?!...

Because Gaza is in chaos again.
People and children in Gaza are being slaughtered again every day.

So

I blame Israel for always causing chaos.
I blame America and Europe for supporting Israel.
I blame the hypocritical Arabs.
I blame the UN , ICC , ICJ and Human Rights for being useless.
I blame Meta , X , Google , BBC , CNN and all western media for covering up the real truth.
I blame the world for just keeping quiet.
I blame people who pretend everything is normal.
I blame people who still eat at McD , KFC , Burger King or Pizza Hut.
I blame people who still drink Pepsi , Coca Cola , Sprite or Fanta.

IN THIS ROTTEN WORLD
Alvian Eleven May 31
In this rotten world being too kind is a stupidity.
In this rotten world not having power and authority is a weakness.
You can see the consequences in Palestine.
Palestinians have long been colonized and cannot determine their own fate.
They are powerless to protect and defend the existence of their country.
All they can do is beg for the world's mercy.
So Palestine is not an ideal example of a nation's existence in this rotten world.
If you have bad fate like Palestinians.
There is no point in blaming this rotten world.
Blame yourself for your weakness and stupidity.

MORE THAN $ 30
Alvian Eleven Mar 23
Men in Gaza often complain.
They are stressed every day trapped in chaos.
While they can't smoke to relieve stress.

Do you know why they can't smoke ?!...
Because the price of cigarettes is soaring high and they don't have money to buy.

Do you know how much a pack of cigarettes , oops I mean how much a stick of cigarette costs ?!...

More than $ 30.

That money is enough to buy a Xiaomi smartwatch.

EXISTENCE OF A NATION
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
The existence of a nation is to have land and people.
A nation will not exist if there is only an empty land which is then claimed by other nations.
A nation will not exist if there are only people who are in diaspora throughout the world.
People needs land to build life.
Land needs people to be built life.
Life is about existence.
So people and land sustain the existence of a nation on the earth.

Gazans are still living in the tents.
***** and smelly tents.
Tents that are easily torn and collapsed by strong winds.

Do you know how much a tent costs ?

More than $ 1.000.

That's enough money to buy two PS5 consoles and some games.

VENGEANCE
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
Suffering gives rise to anger.
Anger gathers strength.
Strength seeks the way.
The way of struggle for vengeance.

Vengeance is about destruction.
Vengeance is about salvation.
Vengeance is about liberation.
Vengeance is about redemption.

UNEQUAL SUPPLY AND DEMAND
Alvian Eleven Dec 2024
In the midst of the long chaos in Gaza.
The number of necessary goods is getting smaller.
While people continue to need various necessities every day.
As a result prices are increasing so high that it is difficult to buy.
While people no longer have any income.
They only depend on Paypal or Gofundme donations.
And the worst is the game of greedy importers.
They take advantage of the bad situation to make a lot of profit.
While aid trucks can't enter Gaza because they are blocked by Israeli army.
If there are trucks that can enter Gaza the bandits ordered by Israeli army will loot the cargo.

It's really a painful reality.
It's painful to see people and children starving.
It''s painful to see babies lacking milks and diapers.
It's painful to see women wearing scraps of tents for *******.
It's painful to see children wearing sandals made from pieces of bottles or cans.
It's painful to see prices rising so high and people can't buy anything.
It's really very painful to see the supply and demand curve becoming more and more unequal.
