We Don’t Need "Heroes" to Validate Our Reality

Oh, is that so?

It seems the world is always “discovering” what Palestinians have been living and documenting for generations. The first massacre against our people didn’t begin in 1948 — it began long before, in 1937 — and the torture and violations have never stopped.

So yes, thank you, Francesca, for speaking the truth. But let’s be honest: Palestinians have been saying this for decades. We don’t need to idolise public figures for simply acknowledging our reality. Our people are not material for applause, and our suffering is not a trend.

Remember the Palestinians — the ones who have carried this truth long before it was headline‑friendly.
