Does a New Year matter when a genocide continues relentlessly for more than a year? The callousness of “Happy New Year!” is worse than looking away. For the entirety of 2024, Israel engaged in the annihilation of Palestinians in Gaza. To wish you a Happy New Year feels like a collusion. I want to wind down this year and to wish you all instead a kind and generous 2025, so that I can take a week or so off, put my phone down, close my laptop, and live in the small moments of life. And even those feel like collusion and callousness.. To step into a new year with heart wide open, broken and tenacious in its conviction that the annihilation of Palestinians must end, I watch videos that Gaza Soup Kitchen post of a child in Gaza called Hamoud. In Arabic, we often add an “i” at the end of names as an endearment, so he’s often referred to as Hamoudi. I think of the next year as the year Hamoudi and his kittens grow another year without the sounds and smells of Israel’s annihilation around them; without the need of a soup kitchen that provides food that Israel is starving them from. I look at this sweet boy’s eyes and I see the brown-eyed boys I grew up with in Egypt, those of my extended family, and those of my kin wherever they are. How dare the world continue to turn as Israel continues to slaughter so many children? And those who help them. I want 2025 to be the year where no parent in Gaza must try to explain to their child what genocide is. So I wish you a year of fierce love and a defiant joy akin to Hamoudi’s as he holds his kittens. I wish you a New Year in which you incite love and inspire freedom that when twinned, instigate a tenderness akin to Bisan’s for her people.
