Rahma Zein is brilliant in speaking out against tyranny and genocide, she needs more platform.
She is Egyptian and Egyptian Government killed its own people.
It’s just anti Semitism of her.
She is awesome and so eloquent
"We are going to need a bigger boat"
Allah is on children of Israel side , Abraham desentend🥰🥰🇮🇱🇮🇱🥰🥰 read Quoran 🇮🇱💕
Actually she is dumb, full of hate and completely blind to the reality
Amazing young woman. Thank you Free Palestine
British is not that Sthhuppid to copy 0ct7🤣
Hammmas Paleshtine why?
@@MeisterAnimeWas that word salad meant to be an actual statement?
@@BrutallyGoofyBuddha420 its to trick youtube censore a.i. from deleting comments. Use your brain sometimes.
Rahma is a great human. I’ll never forget the Rafah crossing moment. Her fierceness was inspiring. I hope the best for her in life. Thank you for being here now Rahma.
Yapssss
Thank you Rahma! ❤❤❤ Free Palestine! End the occupation! 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

British is not that Sthuppid to copy 0ct7🤣
Hammmas Paleshtine why?.

@@paceAndorder-tk3vnwhat are you a fool? Allah sides with a certain linage even if they have rejected the Gospels and the Quran and killed prophets? They also tried to kill Jesus. On top of that, don't you know that Arabs also descended from Abraham through Ishmael? You're trying too hard to side with a party that you support that you try to deceive people that only the Israelites descended from Abraham. Btw, all men descended from Adam, the choice of God, but does that mean that all of them will be saved just because they descended from a person of standing by the side of God and will not be punished if for example they killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians, aid workers, journalists, bombed hospitals, ambulances, mosques, churches, universities, UN shelters, schools, aid centers etc like what the Israelis have done? Study more. Don't be shallow because even "religion" has been modified by certain rabbis, clerics etc to mislead sheeples into thinking that they are special by the side of God etc just because of being descended from a certain personage but leads the life of devils.
She is well-spoken and truthful. We need her
Thank you Rahmal for speaking out against this evilness that is happening in Gaza.

Great interview. She is 💯% correct. Regards from Europe
Youth from USA 🇺🇸 Know the truth Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Thanks Rahima. A courageous and honest , morally upright journalist.
Appreciate your words Rahma, always a pleasure tuning in to hear you speak. Palestine will be free, its no longer a question "IF", its just a question of "WHEN" 🇵🇸❤
She's super amazing!
Cleopatra of journalism. Thank you Rahma!
Bravo Rahma, You bear my mother's name a hardworking woman.!
Im irish , i love middle east and as irish of course anti israel and ajerican zionisy alliance .....we are sooo sad n sorry in ireland that ynis happens
Ireland and its people are amazing and that love is mutual 🇮🇪🍀.
Thanks for standing up for justice.
long live Palestine
Her voice is pure Truth (Reality) !
Rahma is AMAZING!
Thank you so much for this video. It was very beneficial. Keep up the Great Work! Much appreciated!
She needs to come to AUC to knock some sense into ppl here as well.
Very perceptive and compassionate young person. Let's have more of her.
Always great. Thank you Rahma
This girl is quite amazing, I saw her have a hard time on the Piers Morgan totally censored and biased show but she still held her own ….
Thank you Rahma
If the protests would not have an impact, they would not try to stop them or make it look bad! Proud of every voice full of love and peace❤
Palestine is an area of more than 27 thousand square kilometers and is on the borders of Egypt and Jordan, which historically is part of Palestine and the people of Jordan, more than 70 percent of whom are of Palestinian origin, but Britain made them a state and brought agents to the Jordanian ruling dynasty in order to rule Jordan and protect the occupation from the Jordanian-Palestinian people Palestine Its capital, Jerusalem, is the land of the Palestinian people for tens of thousands of years. It is the cradle of Christianity and Judaism, and it is the third holiest place for us Muslims. It is a land where most of God’s prophets lived, were born, and died. It is the holy and blessed land and the land of the Palestinian and Arab people. Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived there for thousands of years as neighbors and brothers before the Zionists occupied our land. Britain brought them in the Balfour Declaration to occupy our land. Those who committed the Holocaust against the Jews were the Germans and the West, not me.💚❤️☝️🇵🇸☝️
yep.
@user “land of Palestinian and Arab people “There isn’t specific Palestinian people,there are Palestinian Arabs,Palestinian Jews, Palestinian Christians etc.
😅😅😅😅
photographs of documents from Nazi Germany prior to World War II offer insight into a secret alliance between Nazi agents and Palestinian leaders.
There is no place in civilised society for Mufti’s and Hitler’s sick psychophatic ideology.🫵🤨🤨🫵
It's called "Judea " for a reason...
Palestine are refugees from other Arab countries. This was said on tv by one of Hamas commanders. So, who stole the land?
What about the christians burned in their own homes in Egypt this week by muslim extremist? Did not hear about that on the BBC
War is being called genocide 😅😅😅😅
no, Britain did not bring them. please re-read your college textbooks
So so sad to palestinians. May God save them and get justice
She’s a powerhouse, thank u!!!❤️
Very nice conversation! Thanks for inviting her! 👍
Thank you for sharing this
Shame on them UK government and USA sut not talk about democracy anymore
A powerful voice and amazing woman. Free the globe from the shackles of zionism
She's right about the patriotism part. It reminds me of when bosses have affairs with an employee and all sense of control is gone. That employee can do no wrong, even if it's driving the business into the ground.
Rahma Zein is AWESOME! She's insightful and incredibly articulate! I saw her on P. Morgan (not someone I usually watch but had seen Rahma at the border taking CNN to task so watched it for her) and her spirited comment that the US needed to get their 'spoilt brat' under control was both spot on and hilarious!!!
I am Palestinian living in the USA and I never heard of what happened in jineen 💔💔💔😢😢😢😢😢
2003 at jenin refugee camp
Shame on you for being a 🇵🇸and not knowing 🙂↕️
💔😭
@@jeannedarc5521 that was 21 years ago. I was very little . Relax ✌️🇵🇸❤️
Glad you know..... now stand up for the thousands of children still being killed ❤
Rahma, your intellect and sincerity radiates threw in your reporting.
Brilliant young journalist, thank you 🙏
I feel the same way. Shocked buy the violence that we watch . I believe it will be stopped. Things are going on behind the scenes.
I hope so. Your comment gives me hope even if it might be just wishful thinking
I fully understand why people are either against Israel committing genocide or against Zionism or against America, even against capitalism, colonialism & racism. all these are something to protest about.
BTW do you also understand people are also against Radical Islam
@deepsareen1 of course, even Islam is against that but radical Islamists don't run through western politics they are ran out & protests in the west need to run out all the other plagues
@deepsareen
What are you referring to as radical islam?
@@deepsareen1 The only reason "Radical Islam" happened is because of USA meddling with politics in Middle East.
Leave the Muslim world alone and you will not even see Radical Muslims anywhere..
For example, I have not heard of any ISIS like attack anywhere since 6 years now, this is because USA has been kicked out of Middle East.
Are you Vivek Ramaswamy clone? (Indian)
@@deepsareen1lol n lol.....this is radical christianity n judaism which has destroyed the world....read history ......
An Amazing woman Rahma is. We need more & more outspoken fearless human beings.
Rahma literally speaks everything i have been thinking and saying since I was a child. May Allah swt bless and preserve her. Ameen.
United Nations failed, but people united will never be defeated
gosh this woman touches me so much...she is passionate and compelling...and profoundly smart...wish her more strength for we owe much from these students...
What a deeply intelligent woman with laser sharp analysis and ability to see through the emotional manipulation and propaganda attempts
We don't have to worry about young generation. Their old parents think its a biblical thing to support genocide.
No, the older generation is straight-up racist.
It’s enough to put you off the Bible!
The Jealous God of mountains, desserts, war, plagues and blood.
I think some people are a bit confused about what they are worshipping.
Not this this old dad. I saw the indoctrination in the 1970‘s. It’s important to go down that rabbit hole of Christian Zionism. I feel many American‘s are weighing loss of sanity over facing the ignorance and arrogance holding down their own early development poisoning the mind. Before they even hit first grade.
not at all
What beautiful intelligent young woman keep up the good work free Palestine 👍
This lady, is so right, and what she said about the U.N being a PR machine. This just absolutely said it all,
Rahma Zein is a fantastic journalist, she is presentable, well-spoken and courageous. We need more like her
Mashallah she's not only brilliant but also beautiful ^^
Indeed, MashaAllah
Talking like a virgin
We respect you Rahmah, telling the truth of how was the conduct of the IDF Zionist soldiers to the Palestinians peoples.
Thank you for standing for humanity, well done . Thank you
In a proportionate level it would be over 1 million people in the UK.
Thank you for showing the reality of this world
Rahma you Not only have a strong voice Also brave and clear perspective.
you are right this issue ,this very Genocide is the most urgent issue and has to be stop.
very inspiring! Thank you Rahma! Yes it is flabbergasting that despite the horror that is happening in Gaza (and many other places) that I - and so many with me - are capable of turning back to daily life s-if-nothing-is-happening. Me safe in an Australian village living a privileged life. Thank you for pointing out = reminding me- I need to do my part.
Thank you lady ❤🙏🏻 for being our energy for this.
Respect Rahma, love your work and passion! Warmest support from Bulgaria! ❤️❤️☮️☮️🇵🇸🇵🇸
Truth be told. ❤️
From the river to the sea, Palestine should be and will be free…..
I am so moved by Rahma every single thing she said resonated with me she is a beacon of light in the dark Evil Forces that dominate us 🙏❤
Thank you, Rahma for being very articulate and eloquent in stating the truth to the western ears.
Thank you
Essential content...thank you..
This is what happens when your only choice of a leader is two people older than dust and their education shows it smh.,.
Vote third party vote for the Green 💚 Party and Dr Jill Stein for President
The "leaders" are not always the ones you elect. Those driving the agenda hide from public view.
The very last part about the sheer hypocrisy and racism was absolutely riveting
What an awesome person Rahma is! I have no words to describe how impressed I am with her. ❤
" *These are the students who stepped in when you stepped out* " - god she is brilliant speaking from the heart beautiful inside and out.
Almost all senior ministers since 100 Years in the USA are of Jewish descent.
Israel and the USA are one and the same!
infiltration and subterfuge
Many are Latin, French, African, Italiano, and many other races.
@@Chulitatr many races but only one masonic lodge
ayayay. there we go again.
From the River to the Sea, free Palestine 🇵🇸.
Ms. Iggy, what is your background in making such statement? i have personally helped gazans. i do not think you even realize what you are chanting.
@@zohreHakimi18 You've helped no one. Stop trolling.
@@IggyAzaleaProMax i actually did.
Baraka llaahu fiek wa djazaaku llaahu ghairan!❤
😢 I feel you guys we are together don’t think you’re alone anymore we get honest energy from you and wish to be there please stay safe love from uk.❤
Thank you for your courage
Well said gal! UK

Astonishing US youths.... Salute!
Thank you very much Rahma. Keep it up.
This is the best and most informative interview I've seen on the Gaza crisis ... this is full of substance unlike Piers the master of shiitt shows
Rahma Zein possesses such infinite beauty in mind, heart and soul...it's people like her who light up our dark world ♥
Thank Rahma for the work you do...May Allah protect you.
Thank you for doing all you are doing Rahma Zein.
What we are seeing now is dystopian. It's not strange the lengths the Z 's have taken throughout this G and sice the Z's inception. What's insane is the complicity of 'free thinking' people in the crimes. Those in the media who would have studied 'evidence based practice' and 'critical thinking'. The politicians who would have studied 'cultural competence and civil rights movements'. The everyday civilians who are struggling with the cost of living and healthcare while their govt's are sending billions overseas to mu r d er. Like you would think they would open a book or their eyes or their mouths and say NO. But alas....jah an am for them all In Sha Allah.
Thanks. Rahma she is pure human being. ❤❤❤
Rahma Zein you're really an emotionally strong inspirational young woman .. I admire your bravery and "you're the voice for MANY against injustice for Palestinians.. May The Almighty keep you safe and may many blessings descends upon you..ameen🤲🏼😥🤞🏼✌🏼
Would like to see more update videos like these from you✊🏼🤲🏼
Hugs 🤗 from S/Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦👏🏼👏🏼
Excellent!
Great reporting excellent guest.She is amazing. She is shocked by the us lack of humanity and support our students 🎉
When they realize the Truth, they will stop.
Every word that Rahma Zein said, it’s exactly how I feel and think. She’s just brilliant!
She is so beautiful, in every way.
Great debate with Mossab Rahma!
Just seen a video of a toddler whose lower bady was burnt and shredded so badly that none of his lower body functions were intact..and the child was alive breathing in pain
😢😢😭😭
I didn't know what to do when I was embarassed by my own child I believe I dedicated most of my life to. I understand the frustration Palestinians feel. Hope change to Palestine.
😮😮😢😢Can someone please explain to me again why no European nation including the US wanted these people in their country before during and after WWII????? What did they know that we are now finding out???? 🤔
amazing woman. i hope she gets invited to talk more and is accessible to those that need to hear her.
This woman is right. The veil has been lifted.

The UN just cuts gaza civilian casualty estimates by half.
NO, it didn't! It simply categorized those not fully identified! Sadly, they are still dead, it's just nobody has named them (perhaps because everyone who knew them is also dead)!
The total casualties overall is the same!
It's sick that Israeli Hasbarista's are trying to spin this to make Israel seem less monstrous!
Massage of the truth
Morning Joe repeated that AIPAC bullshit and you're parroting bullshit from a totalitarian regime that murders whole populations no matter thier creed so long as they can settle the land with thier fascists followers.
Nonsense! Check it out again!
No. The lower number is those that have been identified. The other lower figure is the number still unidentified. The overall figure stays the same: ua-cam.com/video/gSY7DMJaOto/v-deo.html
Amén, Rahma!
Stop fascism against university students‼⁉❌❌❌🛑
