We discuss the struggles of raising money for these border crossings and the roadblocks from crowdfunding sites.

Freedom to palestine 🇵🇸 from Algeria
It is already free. Of food water electricity and buildings. haha
@@Michaelxx2in😂😂😂😂😂😂
"How should Israel have responded to the October 7th attacks"? The one question nobody on the Palestinian side can answer. Oh well. Soon Palestine will be free... Free from Hamas and palestinians. Mauslemz lost the war. Right now gazans are running, crying and praying to their pdf-file prophet and his 6yo wife. Will he save them? Nope. Justice for Aisha. Without lies, islam dies.
@@Porter90how many time are you gonna post the same nonsense? Please help yourself and go read a little.
🇩🇿🇩🇿❤️❤️🇯🇴🇯🇴
Makes me sad because, once they leave, we all know they will NEVER be able to go back. This is EXACTLY what Netanyahu and that country wants….
But I can’t blame them. It’s just heart wrenching to watch. What an unjust world we live in
Definitely Terrorist Hearthless Zionists made the world Like a jungle no democracy no laws apply daily genocides against innocent people hate monsters
Nothing to go back to.
Stop genocide 😢😢😢
Hello sir,
The world agrees - the Pstinians have brought it upon themselves. no ceasefire!

Why is it so hard to do the right thing...
The world has tried many times. The USA has veto power, so the slaughter continues.

What is glaringly missing from this conversation is the question of WHY IT IS SO EXPENSIVE, and the opportunistic jacking up of prices. It wasn't even asked -into who's pocked the money is going?? Where does the corruption lead ...?
It never before cost this much to cross into Egypt.
People individuals taking advantage of people who already have lost everything. Can you imagine the evil?
Important conversations about scams and/or to pay to get out of Gaza
Tired of the media circus
Im ashamed of my generation who are in responsible positions of power that could stop this immediately, especially those that claim to be Christian. All the prophets called for this one basic act of service to our Creator. Love God with all your heart and soul and Love thy neighbour as yourself. James 2 for Christians is important as faith without works is dead. The works of the west is dead. Shameful and so proud of these beautiful students and Rabbis that should not be in this position. ❤❤❤
No more deliberations, start making positive decisions in favour of the Palestinians!
“When the Lord your God brings you [Israelites] into the land which you go to possess, and has cast out many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you, and when the Lord your God delivers them over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. Nor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to their son, nor take their daughter for your son. For they will turn your sons away from following Me, to serve other gods; so the anger of the Lord will be aroused against you and destroy you suddenly.
But thus you shall deal with them: you shall destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.

@peaked_aussie Verse taken out of context. That commendment is talking about individual action about an individual person killing their individual neighbor.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with any government action. You are judged by God for teaching the verse out of context, which is twisting the Word of God unto your own ends.
32 "Now while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation. They put him under guard, because it had not been explained what should be done to him.
Then the Lord said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp.” So, as the Lord commanded Moses, all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, and he died."
Numbers 15:32
"For he [the government] is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is GOD'S MINISTER, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil."
Romans 13:4
@@Matthew_Loutner What of the IDF pilots who were ordered to kill anyone and everyone headed towards Gaza on October 7th regardless of whether they were Palestinian or Israeli? What of the Israeli hostages who testified that the IDF tanks fired on homes in the Kibbutz which housed both Israeli civilians as well as Palestinian fighters, killing both. You dispensationalists are tragic.
Great program, Dr. Myriam Francois is a superb addition.
Great reporting Dr. Myriam, love your show......... thanks for this very important perspective. :)
I keep praying for peace for both Isreal and Palestine. May peace and harmony resume in both countries. Amen
Why are Egyptian border guards behaving like this, Is money going up the ladder? From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
No it won't.
Free of scammers
It is already free. Of food water electricity and buildings. haha
Egypt doesn’t want filth anymore
@@richardgillette5759good don’t come we don’t want you
Sometimes it’s hard to understand the difference between a fee, payable to some government, like in this case fee to cross the border, and robbery.
There shouldn't be a fee to cross a border, especially during a humanitarian crisis. Also, where is that money actually going?
Bribes.
Corruption
Money goes to buy weapons
It goes to a private Egyptian owned company.
Even if those gofund accounts are not a scam it is so impractical to try to help each person asking for financial help to get out of Gaza. I get links from LinkedIn and I get them from Instagram. Even if I had the money, how do I know if the account is for real, and how do you decide which family you help versus another one.
At any rate, what are disgrace what Israel has done to Palestinians for a century already and that my country, the US, has been an accomplice makes me feel disgusted with it every day.
Scammers
One person says they are raising money to leave the country.
Another person says the border crossing is closed and no one can leave.
How do you know that stop making it like many are lying
@@neviamuktar How do I know that?
Watch the video.
We Kashmiris can do nothing except to pray for our Palestinian brothers. But they should not leave Gaza as that is what Israel and the west wants. We condemn the silence of U A E and Saudi Arabia.
"The West" does not "want" anything. The West does not care one way or the other who controls Gaza.
How does someone living in Kasmir know what the West wants?
You have no right to tell someone undergoing a genocide what to do. I understand both those who stay and those who leave.
Doing the right thing should always be without hesitation and it will never be a cause for regret. It is more honorable to stand up for the truth than to live silently in a lie.
Be careful of scams folks! I have seen several in comments sections around YT.
Gazans have been paying $8,000 each to cross to Egypt - who is demanding this money?
Smugglers?
A private brokerage company
Egypt?
She sooo intelligent and gorgeous
She should be veiled to preserve her modesty and prevent people like you from ogling her
Shame on PayPal
I would love to donate, but I am afraid of being scammed. There should be some kind of registry so we know who is legitimate and who is not.
So sad!! Please stop this!!! Fre3 PaIe$t!ne!!
Endowments, tuition fees, research grants, alumni donations and other revenue streams contribute towards financial stability and support their educational aims. As of the 2021/22 academic year, Ivy League institutions generated $40.61 billion in total revenue.
The federal government provides enormous subsidies to the wealthiest universities by paying “overhead” on research grants. Ivy League universities received $1.8 billion for government-funded research grants despite having $192 billion in endowment funds.
- something for those naysays to consider. With the MONEY the universities make why is any student in America paying tuition? These universities make enough money a year to pay for your education, your kids education, and your grandchildren’s education. However, they instead give it to countries like Israel who turn around and give it to the U.S. government to buy weapons.
Maybe the colleges could send the money to crowdfunding to get people away from the BOMBS the colleges paid for.
If Israel was to do the right thing like they said they would these people should not be in Rafa WHAT are they waiting for????????
Israel built a tent city North of Rafah for 400,000 people. They said people will be moved out of Rafah.
@@Matthew_LoutnerIsrael says a lot of things they don't mean..hardly the most honest of Governments.
@@gabriellejudd1 Example?
Operation Olive Branch (Turkish: Zeytin Dalı Harekâtı) was a cross-border military operation conducted by the Turkish Armed Forces and Syrian National Army (SNA) in the majority-Kurdish Afrin District of northwest Syria, against the People's Protection Units (YPG) of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). The air war and use of major artillery ended as the Arab and Turkmen militias of the SNA entered the city of Afrin on 18 March 2018, and the SDF insurgency in Northern Aleppo began.

Wait, doesn't gaza have more border crossings into zio state? Why is Egypt the only border. They should be given safety in zio state who after all is doing the damage
They want them out of Palestine 🇵🇸 to zionize the state
Where is Middle East “sleeping” ??
In tents?
@@richardgillette5759cool orientalist trope most live in houses 😂
Geneva law applies to a few n you not part of it.
Let's think BIG....
Time shall tell
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
Fun fact.
If The west bank was under Jordanian ownership and Gaza was under Egyptian ownership pre 1967 what part belongs to Palestinians?
Any answers?
The word FUN is hier
a total wrong, false and incorrect word.
If you steal a television set from your neighbor and someone then takes it from you, who is the actual owner?
What was Gaza and West Bank prior to 1948?
@@leilaoksanen5142 hier is not a word.
@Matthew_Loutner good question, do you know the answer?
@cbs63 Previous to World War I, the Palestine region was a part of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans had no particular interest in the area and called it Syria.
The Ottomans lost it in World War I.
From 1917 until 1948 it was the Palestine area under British rule called the British mandate. The British used it to settle Jews there, but abandoned it to the United Nations in 1947.
So the British won it from the Turks in a war in 1917. Egypt and Jordan won it from the United Nations in a war in 1948. The Israelis won it from Jordan and Egypt in 1967 in a war.
However, the Jews have a more valid claim because they have continuously lived there for thousands of years (as well as the Palestinians).
The Ottoman Empire won it from the Arab Leagues.
The Arab Leagues won it from the Byzantine Empire.
The Byzantine Empire inherited it from the Roman Empire.
The Roman Empire took it from the Jews and Palestinians (non-Jewish inhabitants).
It is basically like playing World Poker. For 2 thousand years everyone has controlled it except the actual people living there.
Where are their billionaire leaders?
Free Palestine forever ❤❤❤
Thats the proof that you should stand against palestinian government and hamas not shouting and protesting against the people helped you! not the people who accepted your students at their universities. not the people hired your professors at their universities!
There is enough money from the dead to support everyone in Gaza.. but first have to get out or get others in to help
