the water so blue, so inviting;
I jump in.
it is only a few degrees above freezing.
my muscles tighten.
I drown.
mother cries at my funeral,
but inside she knows
she would have jumped in too...
so invitingly blue.

"Mahmoud Almadhoun said at the beach soldiers cursed at them, scanned them with what appeared to be facial recognition equipment and left them in their underwear, exposed to the elements. When they asked for #food or #water, soldiers would kick or curse at them, he said.

Sometime after midnight, soldiers transported him and other men closer to Beit Lahia and left them to walk back barefoot."

Text from article:
Israel Defense Forces spokesman Daniel Hagari said Friday that the military had detained more than 200 suspects over the previous 48 hours in Gaza and referred dozens to questioning.

Hani Almadhoun, the Washington-based director of philanthropy at UNRWA USA, told The Post he was shocked when he saw his brother Mahmoud, 32, in the video.

Another brother was killed in an airstrike Nov. 24, just before the start of a week-long humanitarian truce.

Mahmoud Almadhoun said at the beach soldiers cursed at them, scanned them with what appeared to be facial recognition equipment and left them in their underwear, exposed to the elements. When they asked for food or water, soldiers would kick or curse at them, he said.
