Some comrades over at Hexbear have organized a donation drive for Palestine and, over the past few weeks, have managed to raise over $1500 for verified Palestinian fundraisers. The fediverse is a good place full of good people.

Sounds good, but make sure the money really goes into the hands who needs it the most: the vulnerable rather than those wanting to fight to the death.

Have to add that while zakat and jizya are normal practices in Islam, nonetheless the issue is the charity money is rarely ever accounted properly.

BTW, food not bombs.

The vulnerable are the ones fighting to the death, though. Isntreal is murdering and starving them en-masse with the explicit intent of extermination, and they have the international right to resistance.
