message to zionists everywhere.

 we let you into our homes, when your own countries tried to murder you, and everyone else turned you away. we fed you, and we clothed you, we gave you shelter, and we shared from the bounty of our land with you, and when the time was right, you kicked us out of our homes and homeland, then you killed and robbed and burned and looted our lives, but the world is finally glimpsing the terror we have endured at your hands for so long. they watch in utter astonishment the sadism, the glee, the joy and the pleasure with which you conduct, watch and cheer the daily details of breaking our bodies, our minds, our future and our past, but no matter what happens from here, no matter what fairy tales you tell yourselves and tell the world, you will never truly belong to that land, you will never understand the sacredness of the olive trees which you've been cutting down and burning for decades, just to spite us, just to break our hearts a little more. no one native to that land would do such a thing to the olives. no one who belongs to that region would ever bomb or destroy such ancient heritage.
