Sintesi personale
Beh, ho bisogno di condividere con voi alcune notizie su Gaza, la mia casa. Non ho sentito la mia famiglia per 3 giorni, non ho sentito nessuno dei miei fratelli online , così ho cercato di telefonare. Mia mamma ha detto “habibti stiamo bene . Non ti preoccupare. Noi semplicemente non abbiamo da tre giorni internet, nè acqua, niente. E ‘molto freddo e siamo gelati . Stiamo meglio di altri le cui case sono sotto acqua . “Mio padre era disperato e depresso . Ripeteva in continuazione: “cosa possiamo fare!” Volevo raccontare loro del mio buon voto ( 97% ottenuto nonostante tutte le circostanze difficili che ho passato), ma il mio voto (e la felicità) ora erano irrilevanti!Sono così infelice oggi.Ognuno sta soffrendo lì e io sono qui negli Stati Uniti dove tutto è disponibile! Mi sento in colpa !
Gaza sta annegando oggi. Le case sono allagate dall’acqua. Le persone soffrono il freddo intenso Niente acqua. Nessun calore. No carburante. Questa è una catastrofe. Una catastrofe. Ho bisogno di fare qualcosa per aiutare. Mi sentivo così impotente che ho voluto chiamare il 911,la Croce Rossa o Amnesty International. Chiunque! Voglio dire al mondo che Gaza sta vivendo un disastro indicibile e ha bisogno del vostro aiuto. Non posso stare in silenzio. Non si può stare in silenzio. Per favore dobbiamo intervenire per fermare la pena inumana di un intero popolo!
E prima di augurare a tutti un Buon Natale prego e penso agli altri popoli nel mondo che non hanno la vita di lusso che facciamo noi . Siamo così fortunati. Così così fortunati!

Freezing and canoeing in Gaza

Well, I need to share with you some news about Gaza, my home. I haven’t heard from my family for 3 days, haven’t seen any of my siblings online anywhere, so I called (internationally since I could neither Skype or Viber). My mom said “habibti we are doing well Alhamdulliah. Don’t worry. We just didn’t have power for three days in a row, no internet, no water, nothing. It’s extremely cold and we are freezing. But we are better than others whose houses are drowning.” She then handed the phone to my dad. His voice sounded so desperate! He was repetitively saying “what could we do, dear!” Never “seen” him this depressed before!
I wanted to tell them about my good grade (got 97% on my final despite all the difficult circumstances I’ve been through) but my grade (and happiness) couldn’t be more irrelevant! When I was asked how I was doing, “I am good, mom. I have another paper to write during the break.” My parents sounded so worried “oh dear, so you won’t be having a break. Will you be alone on campus? You aren’t going to Chicago” I am like c’mon mom! Really? When did I start having this life of luxury that my parents’ biggest worry became me not having a break! When did they start feeling I no longer belong to the kind of life they live and that their suffering wasn’t mine! Why did I feel today I wasn’t one of them anymore! I felt I was completely alienated from home. From my family. From my people. I am so unhappy today. Everyone is suffering there and I am here in the US where everything is available! I couldn’t feel more guilty!
Gaza is drowning today. You will see people kayaking and canoeing not the type of fun activities the world knows. Houses are flooded by water. People are freezing there. No power. No water. No heat. No fuel. This is a catastrophe. A CATASTROPHE. I need to do something to help. I felt so helpless that I wanted to call 911, Red Cross or Amnesty International. Anyone! I want to tell the world that Gaza is living an unspeakable disaster and in a bad need for your help. I cannot be silent. You cannot be silent. Please we need to take action to stop this inhuman punishment of an entire population!
Here’s a short video to give you a sense of what’s going on there:
And before wishing you all a Merry Christmas please think of other peoples in the world who don’t have the life of luxury we do. We are so fortunate. So so fortunate!
Merry Christmas all,
Fidaa
