Gaza Under Attack

Ms. Noor Saad in Gaza posted this video and message early this morning local time on LinkedIn. It’s terrifying just listening to the explosions. I can’t imagine what it’s like being there, wondering if you and yours are next. Noor later wrote, “All night there were fire belts (bombing), shelling, and missiles. All night we were afraid.”

This is one graphic example of what genocide and ethnic cleansing look and sound like in Gaza, Israel’s bloodstained land grab that is part of the Greater Israel project.

Noor posted a video message on her LinkedIn account that I shared here on 25 July 2025.

​Here’s a message from her on the campaign page: 

I am Noor, an English teacher. I lost my job at UNWRA during the war and I dream of opening a learning center for children to teach them English.

We are a family of seven, always united by love, hard work, and a shared dream of building a better future together. My father is a marine engineer who spent decades working at sea to provide a dignified life for his family.​ Today, he lies in a hospital bed, exhausted and in pain after being critically injured during our displacement ​ Doctors told us clearly: if he does not receive urgent treatment outside Gaza, we will lose him. My mother is a devoted homemaker who has always been the backbone of our home. My brother Ahmed is a biomedical engineer who dreams of contributing to better healthcare. He once developed an electronic brace project, but sadly lost both his project and his source of income in the war.​ My brother Mohammed is an electronics engineer passionate about innovation and problem-solving.​ My brother Yousef is a top-performing cybersecurity engineering student. Unfortunately, he lost his laptop during displacement, and with no income, he cannot afford university tuition or a new laptop to continue his education. M​y sister Retaj is a hardworking school student who has been deprived of her basic right to education. She dreams of becoming a doctor.

The cost of tents and transport exceeded $3,000. As well as basic shelter and survival necessities we cannot afford. We are​ asking just for a chance, an opportunity to survive, rebuild, continue our education, and bring our family’s future back into focus.​ We believe that goodness exists. And that every person can make a difference, no matter how small their contribution.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you cannot donate, we would be forever grateful if you could share this campaign.

With love,

-Noor

Can you hear this silence? It is the silence that comes before the explosion. The silence of a family huddled in the corner of a room, hoping their turn has not come.

While the world plans for its future, there are those of us who only dream of the past…

We are not just “victims” or “numbers in the news.” We are engineers, doctors, artists, and workers. We were part of this world that seems to have forgotten us. Our dreams have been shattered, turned into a nightmare of survival.

Look around you, at the warmth and safety of your home. This is not a guaranteed right for everyone. I call on every living conscience to reject this injustice. To speak, to write, to share. Do not let our voices be silenced by the roar of bombs. We want to live, not just become a memory.

    If you’re on LinkedIn and you’re upset about the gross injustice and collapse of basic humanity we are witnessing — and you are not building some part of the alternative, then you are asleep at the wheel of history.

    Rage is cheap. Outrage is cheap. Posting is cheap.
    What’s costly — and what counts — is the sweat, the sacrifice, the sleepless nights, the relentless pursuit of different systems.

    Because the truth is: this world didn’t get here by accident. It was engineered. Built on greed. Sustained by exploitation. Amplified by propaganda. And if we don’t like it, then the only moral option is to engineer something else.

    An economy of justice, not usury.
    A media of truth, not distortion.
    Education that forms whole human beings, not economic cogs.
    Businesses that honour dignity, not just margins.
    Communities that restore humanity, not strip it away.

    History doesn’t wait for spectators. It remembers builders. It remembers those who picked up bricks while others kept scrolling.

    So if you’ve been grieving, raging, despairing — don’t let that energy die in the abyss of your feed. Transmute it. Build. Fund. Organise. Amplify. Educate. Heal. Lead.

    Because the next civilisation is not going to build itself.

    It’s time to build.
