A quick friendly reminder: a bombing "pause" is not "humanitarian" in any way when we're talking about long-term occupation, oppression, and apartheid. Taking your boot off someone's throat when you've beaten them down is not humanitarian, or humane, or kind. It's bullshit. As some have said already, calling for a "ceasefire" is a conservative request, at best. #FreePalestine #Palestine

I agree, overall, but if you are on the ground under constant bombardment, any breathing space is important. Furthermore, growing international solidarity could widen that opening and force the aggressor to make it permanent.
