The man is crying out, “Who will I hug now?”
This is the rubbles of his home. His wife and children were martyred in the Israeli bombing.
Video description:
There is a man on the floor, hugging a brick. He is shouting and crying. He is surrounded by rubble of his old home. There is clothing and backpacks in the rubble. A man in a black hoodie is behind him and is holding him, comforting him. Later in the video an older man in a red hoodie tries to pull the brick out of his hand and is also trying to comfort the man. The man holding the brick is shouting in Arabic, “Who will I hug now?”
Repost of Instagram post by alessandra_sanguinetti:
“In 2004 I worked as an intern in Newsweek and had to go through the wires coming in from the Middle East.
The Iraq war was raging. Israel was committing its routine violations and killings.
The images were devastating and unequivocally condemning of both the USA and Israel, but I remember the editors would reject all my picks and demand images of burnt cars or vague images of destruction.
So I brought a hard drive and collected everything they didn't publish.
It was my first live glimpse of the lack of ethics or integrity in most US media.
Not the journalists on the ground, but of the senior editors making the calls - in their self important glass cubicles.
And no, to the cynics out there..it's not all too complicated to discuss on social media.
Social media is the only reason we know what's happening in Palestine.
And the only reason mainstream news has to keep up and sprinkle some actual news now and then.
Meanwhile we are seeing much less footage coming out of Gaza - Israel has been killing off all the journalists.
This is terrifying.”

This beautiful girl's name is Fatima. She is only 5 years old. Israel bombed her house, killing her parents, then bombed her aunt's house that she and her sibling were staying in, now her whole family is dead.
Her pain is all of humanity's pain. DON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE. DON'T GET USED TO THIS.
I have been yelling this for a while now. Zionists will say "oh well we dont show our dead bodies because we respect them unlike hamas". The dead bodies arent the only thing we are seeing from Gaza honey, we also see the destroyed buildings, how israhell has leveled down most of Gaza, yet we dont see the same from israel. Where are your destroyed buildings huh? You cannot possibly say that you dont show them cause you respect them also 💀
Then zionists will turn around and say "if you want I can show you all the dead israelis" like??? So do you respect the dead or not?
LETS GOOOO
your silence is noticed.
