Don’t distort our speech!

Many activists reject our movement and consider us as some Zionist machinery because in the manifesto, we’ve been denouncing Hamas – among others. It’s always amazing to see the shortcuts people’s minds can take and how good they are at condemning without even trying to understand. We’d like to remind all our goal: yes we are frustrated and tired of being oppressed, killed, humiliated and kept from even leaving to study in other countries, yes we denounce political parties governing us because they didn’t help in anything, but we denounce ALL of them, not ONLY Hamas. We are TIRED of the status quo, from all sides. Political parties have all had the time and chances to BRING THE CHANGE, but we haven’t seen anything yet.

We’re NOT calling for a political coup, let’s be clear on this. We’re young people who want to work for the PEOPLE, we denounce the misery we live in, we denounce their division, and reject their fight, because they are not helping us. But more than Fatah and Hamas, who remains Palestinians just like us, ABOVE ALL we denounce the Occupier & its puppet the International Community who fails, day after day, in its duty to impose sanctions on “Israel”.

Our followers, readers, and those who are not supporting us yet must keep in mind THIS message: we have ONE enemy which is the Zionist Occupier. Hopefully this call will shake our political leaders, wake them up and remind them that they are responsible of us! Hopefully they will realize that what we want is UNITY, and NO MORE DIVISION, because it makes Israeli terrorism’s impact on our lives even worse.

Our call is a call for SOLIDARITY, a call for PEACEFUL ACTION; we are holding out our hands & waiting for you to complete the bond. Make sure this is read, help us work for a better solution, HELP US MAKE IT!

And Please note this, the Gaza Youth Breaks Out Team have been banned from posting anything on the Facebook page; we want you to go there and flood the page with your love to Palestine so those who misinterpreted our message can leave us.

Love and respect from Gaza,

Indeed I m in LOVE!


by Marivel Guzman
Indeed I m in Love!.

Indeed I m in Love

Indeed, I’m in Love

How fortunate I am to be the owner of my dreams.

How fortunate are the dreamers
who share those dreams.

How fortunate are the minds that expand—

the MINDS
that create better REALITIES.

The ones who are ILLUMINATED,
who WALK the path of the light worker;

the ONE who sees,
hears,
feels,
senses,
and transcends
without looking back.

Indeed, I am in LOVE,
and I will tell you why.

Because my dreams are extensive and eccentric,
far beyond the ordinary.

Because my dreams are explosive
and embrace the whole world.

Because my ideal of love
is more than a sentiment returned.

My love is an energy
that moves within me
and within the world
I wish to inhabit.

I am in love with LOVE,
because it gives me a reason to live.

I am in love with my inner self,
because it is the vortex of energy
that elevates me
to a higher self.

I am in love with the world I defend,
because I only have ONE.

I am in love with nature,
which I wish to preserve
for my children,
for your children,
and for generations yet to come.

I am in love with PEACE,
because I want it for everyone on Earth,
for it is a gift from God.

I am in love with Mother Earth,
because she is the mother of life and green,
and she is worth the fight.

I am in love with the PEN,
because it allows me to express
my most intimate feelings.

I am in love with the RED of my HEART,
because red gives me the passion
and the courage
to tell you how I truly feel inside.

I am in love with POETRY,
because it is the mind and the heart
thinking as ONE.

I am in love with the WORD,
because it carries
the simplest truths.

I am in love with Palestine,
the symbol of human struggle,
and the land of my children.

I am in love with Gaza,
because she is a prisoner within a prison,
and I long to see her free.

I am in love with the resistance fighter
who loves his land more than himself,
who will give his blood to the soil
rather than let it die.

I am in love with anyone
who stands for justice,
because they stop at NOTHING,
raise their voice,
and fight for others
without blinking an eye.

I am in love with the innocent mind,
because it is pure
and cannot live in chains.

I am in love with my dreams,
because they guide me
and lead me
to become better with every step.

I am in love with the eternal dreamer
of the spotless mind,
because he forever strives
for a better reality
than the one offered to him
with strings attached.

I am in love with you, LOVE,

because love does not strike back,

and LOVE never dies.

I am in love with the consciousness
that changes the note of love
into a universal feeling—

a force that envelops us all
and allows us to evolve
into dimensions
never before imagined.

I am in love with YOU.

I send you my frequency of love,

that you may tune yourself
to a higher vibration
and reach the purest altitude
of the mind.

Do you love ME?

Do you love your WORLD?

Can you share my dreams?

Can you fight absurdity with me?

Can you put aside HATE and GREED
and move toward the world
I wish to see—

and BE?

Can you choose between WAR and PEACE,

and understand
that war is not the opposite of peace?

I want you to see through my eyes
and feel with my heart.

I want you to know my compassion.

I want you to cry with rage
when pain is inflicted
upon another human being.

When forests fall.

When living seeds are altered.

When life itself is treated
as a commodity.

I want you to raise your voice
against what you believe is wrong.

I want you to love ME.

And I want you to love our WORLD,

because we only have ONE.

Now you know
why I am in LOVE.

Indeed,

I am in Love.

In Love with LOVE.

With YOU.

And with the WORLD.
