THREAD: The Trump Administration is reportedly going to slash funding to UNRWA and force it to either disband or change the way it defines Palestinian refugees. This is will be a long thread that helps explain how we got here. This represents a significant shift in US policy toward the Palestinian refugee issue. While it has always been more pro-Israel than pro-International Law or Human rights, the US position is now becoming the Israeli position.

How the Israeli Military Lies.

Earlier this week, the Israeli Military tweeted it had been fired on from Palestinians inside the Gaza Strip to justify their attack killing Palestinians inside Gaza. They even tweeted out a video which they wanted you to accept as forensic evidence to corroborate their story.

What is the Nakba? What are Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere protesting over?

I want to share with you one Nakba story, #MyNakbaStory in this thread. Have a look at this picture from Palestine. The young man on the left is my Sido (grandfather). This is from the late 1920s to early 1930s. My great grandmother is seated in the foreground with her three sons behind her. They are from al-Lyd.

When I tweeted this last week, many were shocked that Israel had devolved to the point where it was arresting and imprisoning poets. The truth is, this isn't the first or likely last time.

I want to tell you about another one...... This is Dr. Fouzi al-Asmar, he passed away in 2013 after a long career as a writer, academic, poet and journalist. By the end of his career he had edited newspapers in the Middle East and served as a DC bureau chief.
