Palestine: A land of heroic people, killed by a people who stole land compilation

We are proud to be part of this benefit compilation download.

Available here as a ‘donate what you want’.

This is information about the fundraiser, posted by Active Slaughter, the band who set up the fundraiser.

“We’re doing a download only compilation to raise money to help some friends of ours that we’ve known for 20 odd years escape the genocide being inflicted upon Gaza by the scum that is the IOF.

The family has been split in two, with the mother and daughter being in Egypt where the daughter, Salma (who does the spoken intro to our song “It’s Not Antisemitic To Hate Fascists”) is undergoing multiple surgeries on a leg that was badly broken when they were bombed, and the father and sons still trapped near Rafah with no water, electricity and very little food. It’s no exaggeration to say their lives are under threat every second of every day and the youngest son has been severely traumatised after having been trapped under the rubble when the building they were in was bombed. We would like to help them all escape their personal hell.

Crossing from Gaza into Egypt normally costs between three hundred to a thousand Dollars. Since the unfolding genocide this price has increased to 5,000 Dollars, something which our friends simply don’t have and are unlikely to ever have given what Gaza has been subjected to.

Every single penny will go to helping our friends out and when they’re out it will go to the next family, and the next…

Huge thanks and much love,
Active Slaughter”

FREE PALESTINE! OCCUPATION NO MORE!

Rabies Babies have just put a song FREE PALESTINE! OCCUPATION NO MORE! up on Bandcamp

We wanted to put something out in support of the people of Palestine.  

The song is free to download from our Bandcamp page.
There is an option to donate if anyone wants, and all proceeds will be passed on to Gaza Sunbirds https://www.gazasunbirds.org/

This is something that is important to me especially. My sister’s husband is Palestinian and his sister lives in Gaza. Recently her and her family travelled south from their home in Gaza City to escape the bombs. They went with just the clothes on their backs, it wasn’t possible to take belongings and it was a long and traumatic journey. Along the way they passed tanks, IDF soldiers and a lot of dead bodies laid in the road. Anyone seen filming with a phone was killed by IDF, any young men were taken and killed. During the journey their 17 year old daughter Basmallah was singled out and taken by IDF soldiers and forced to watch as 4 Palestinian men were made to undress and then were executed. Basmallah was terrified that she would be killed too and is now very traumatised.  

My brother’s wife worked as a Human Rights Observer in the West Bank during 2019 and is still in contact with many of the Palestinian friends she met while she was there. The Israeli settlers have increased their violence towards Palestinians and are stealing homes and land at an alarming rate.

Many of the bombs and weapons used to kill, injure and destroy Palestinian lives are made in the UK. 

It is our country’s shame that our government is willing to put profit before human lives and it is our duty to shout as loud as we can against injustice. 

thanks, Lorna Rabies Babies

Music for a ceasefire

Rabies Babies have signed the Music For A Ceasefire open letter.

An open letter from artists, musicians and performers calling for an end to the siege of Gaza.

“We the undersigned call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and an end to the bombardment of Palestine that has already taken the lives of over 10,000 innocent civilians, aid workers and journalists.

The United Nations secretary general António Guterres has said Gaza is becoming “a graveyard for children”, and whilst the devastation continues, the UK and US governments fail to stand up for humanity, condemn the collective punishment of the Palestinian people and advocate for peace instead of bloodshed.

A ceasefire would allow for unhindered humanitarian aid in Gaza, where the World Health Organisation has said the level of death and suffering by the 2.2 million civilians caught up in this conflict is “hard to fathom”.

We are a diverse coalition of artists, musicians and performers calling for an end to the siege of Gaza, immediate humanitarian aid for the many frightened, starving and wounded civilians trapped amongst the rubble, and meaningful diplomatic intervention from our political leaders to facilitate the release of hostages, an end to the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine and for lasting peace in the region.”
