On December 10, 2021, Fahme tweeted: “Make no mistake, Palestinians are living the Nakba everyday.”
The term “Nakba” is generally translated as “catastrophe” in Arabic, referring to the outcome of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. It is a term used to delegitimize the creation of the State of Israel by drawing a comparison to the Holocaust, known in Hebrew as the Shoah, meaning “catastrophe.”
Also on December 10, 2021, Fahme tweeted: “What is the iron wall around Gaza besides an attempt to fully engineer a population that benefits the isr*eli and consequently all other western governments.”
The term “iron wall” refers to the 40-mile, above- and below-ground security barrier constructed along the Israel–Gaza border. The barrier contains various radar systems, underground sensors and cameras to detect Hamas attack tunnels.
