I've been seeing my friends changing their profile picture to these photo:
Seems legit and I didn't even care about it until this morning when almost all my friends have changed their profile picture.
And I became curious. What is all this about?
After doing online research, I finally got it.
These profile pictures is to show support about the solidarity with the Palestinian prisoners where they are having hunger strike.
Here's a more detail explanation I found online:
Palestinian prisoners who are on Hunger Strike need assistance, please SHARE this with your friends status to spread AWARENESS about this hunger strike of the largest in history..
Bilal Thiab … 76 Days
Thaer Halahleh … 76 Days
Hassan Safadi … 70 days
Omar Abu Shallal … 68 Days
Mohammedd Al-Taj … 60 days
Mahmoud Sarsak … 54 Days
Faris Al-Natur … 47 days
Jafar Ezz Al-Din … 53 Days
Abdallah Al-Barghouthi 32 Days
more than 2000 prisoners …. 27 days
Okay..I don't know exactly how are we giving "assistance", by changing our Facebook Profile Picture, to these prisoners who are on Hunger Strike..but I am happy to see many support from many people in creating the awareness.
So for anyone who wants to change your Facebook Profile Picture, you can get it here:
The artist for these profile pictures is Hafez Omar.
