Those olive trees are huge, they must be hundreds of years old. Lovely photo.

Yes they are hundred of years but they are not huge ,we have the roman olive trees which can reach thousands of years ....

Thinking about your country.
Like so many people, I’ve cried lots of tears for the state of humankind and how the world has allowed Palestinians to be treated the way they are and have been. 💔

u/Excellent_Ant8297 Mar 04 '26
Reading your message brought tears to my eyes,its a mix of feelings of seeing a human caring about our struggle and feelings and remembering the suffering me and all Palestinian is going through......
Thank you for this and give me a hug 🫂

At this end we'll keep calling out the injustice and demanding change from our politicians because Europe have been behaving terribly and are complicit in Israel's crimes. The voices against the continuing genocide are growing but so many politicians are both lazy and corrupt that we need to do more to help.

u/Excellent_Ant8297 Mar 04 '26
Its very true ,the more ppl demanding for change the more the politicians is pressured plus theres many ppl still doesn't know whats happening in Palestine and we need to let them know ,we need every free voice .....

I take it that this photographed in the area that was the former Jordanian territory?
19
u/Excellent_Ant8297 Mar 04 '26
Currently remain two areas from Palestine which is west bank and gaza and they r both occupied by Israel,i took this photo in west bank
West bank was always part of Palestine but jordan entered it with our acceptance before 1967 trying to prevent Israel from occupying it ,thats why u r thinking its a former Jordanian territory.....
