Plestia is such a beautiful soul. She made such valuable contributions to recording the first genocide to be documented as it continues to unfold by the victims and oppressors. I'm thankful she's safe now, and I hope all Palestinians will be safe. Viva Palestine!
50 minutes of talking about nothing…. It is quite disappointing that she says she is a "journalist" who wants to tell about Gaza from her point of view. The truth and all I saw, unfortunately, was a cover-up of the truth... Until she had the invitation to tell the whole world the truth, she chose to describe the situation as a war that happened by itself between two armies for the occupation of territory. Ahhh maybe she forgot because of her trauma, how the cursed date of Yishkah will forever be forgotten 7/10 started because of a cruel bloodthirsty and sadistic terrorist organization Hamas. who chose the cowardly and terrifying way of murdering civilians, kidnapping, raping, burning. And to film it all with joyous cries. Hamas which has ruled Gaza for more than 20 years. that its leaders fled to Qatar and live a life of wealth at its expense. that she is under "occupation" but has traveled the world before... What an unnecessary program and propaganda she chose to produce for the world that watches it as if its leaders have no responsibility for what her family and the citizens of Palestine are now experiencing as a result of the shocking war they started! I don't think she realizes how silly it sounds to describe the state of the war without starting from the point where it really started. But all those people who really think that this is the truth, this moment proved more than anything that her dream of being a "reliable journalist" is in doubt! Definitely a waste of time watching! Maybe she forgot the truth because of her trauma...

Its not a contradiction, since being jewish has nothing to do with supporting israel. One just has to look at the reality, to wish everything good on the Palestinians and everything bad on the Israelis
@raidbenachoure1330I had the same reaction to your comment. It sounds awful. So you could just take the feedback and do better rather than play the victim. I’m really tired of the linguicism that I am seeing a lot these days in YT comments. I would think someone who is an English teacher would know how to communicate better if you are trying to compliment her English skills.
@@Lenamaslow I'm Jewish and it breaks my heart too. What matters is we know what's right and wrong. Equality and no ethnic cleansing and no genocide. We're all brothers and sisters in the world.
I've been following her after October 7th and I can't believe all that she went through, this genocide, she lost everything and still she smiles and keeps her kindness. Palestinians are the most beautiful kind people in the world. So much respect for her ❤

@@Justice-e5k What the duck are you talking about Zionist bot? We are not blind and we have seen with our own eyes what this brave woman has reported for months since October 7th??? Not only her but we have seen thousands of videos and pictures. Not only that the names of the martyrs have been already reported and confirmed by external organizations (not Hamas) and more than 33.000 Palestinians have been killed since October 7th, which more than 14 000 were children. How can anyone justify that???? We have seen thousands of dead bodies of children rapped in white bags. We have seen thousands of videos of kids without limbs that were amputated without anesthesia. We have seen faces of innocent children that have been burned with white phosphorus (which is illegal) we have seen the massive destruction of a beautiful city that was once Gaza. The IDF is a terrorist organization that bombs innocent children and innocent people and destroys life. The IDF rapes women and mocks about it on tik tok. They even mock about the killing and suffering of innocent people. They are sick. Moreover, the war was started by Israel because before the creation of Israel there was a country named Palestine 🇵🇸 My family comes from Palestine and they were force to leave in 1940 because Israel was killing them and oppressing them since then. They even built a wall and have check points all around the west bank so Palestinians can't move freely in their own country. They don't have an army so it's not a war and you know it. IT IS A COLONIAL PROJECT AND A GENOCIDE. IT IS THE ETHNIC CLEANSING OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF PALESTINE. Israel is not only killing them with bombs but starving them to dead. They don't have access to food or clean water and they are eating grass and donkeys. More than 1.2 million Palestinians have been displaced and have no home AND THE MAJORITY OF THE PALESTINIAN POPULATION ARE CHILDREN. YOU KNOW WHAT VALUES ARE? HOW CAN YOU JUSTIFY THE MASS KILLING OF INNOCENT PEOPLE? YOU'RE COLD. The propaganda machine comes only from the higher power of Israel , UK and the U.S because they have the money. They profit from the colonial project because of the oil and natural gas trade and also because the U.S laundry machine. So you can't come here and call my ancestors and family terrorists BECAUSE WE KNOW OUR HISTORY. Say all the lies you want to say but people are not stupid AND YOU CAN'T KILL THE TRUTH. There is years of evidence of the oppression and genocide. You're an evil cold person! Join Jewish Voice for peace and get a heart and a brain. Anyone justifying genocide has no values.

Thank you for this amazing interview and given the opportunity to Palestinians to tell the their story and history that the world has ignored for years. Gaza through my eyes.

I love hearing from Palestinian people. Through their stories, it helps me re-humanize them as people. In the west, we have allowed the war machine to create an overall impression of a tribal society within the Arab context. Continuously fighting amongst themselves for centuries and will never change. It is, therefore, acceptable to sell the necessary weapons needed to defend themselves. This conveniently allows westerners to minimize the reality of death and destruction that is being delivered upon the Middle East daily. Without people expressing their love of their homeland, in spite of the struggles, we would have no relationship point with which we could identify. Keep telling these stories. Too me, it moves the needle more dramatically than protests ever could.
Agreed, it’s the most effective method of changing minds and moving hands. I think there’s a need for protest, but it should always come with natural persuasion like this. When the cause is just, fair, reasonable, good - then the mere interaction with or hearing from individuals that support it (authentically) is so powerful that it’s rarely ever allowed
Palestinians have a beautiful way of expressing themselves. Even the little children. The more I’ve listened to them the more I understand why it’s taken billions of dollars a year to suppress their voice and dehumanise them.
Some of us have seen the humanity of Palestinians for decades. And of the rest of people in the Middle East. Talking to people from different cultures and people who have travelled with genuine interest in other cultures makes an enormous difference. Sadly, too many people don’t seek those opportunities even though they have plenty in their diverse communities. It’s governments that tend to be awful, not most of the people. And by the way, it’s not just in the Middle East that there is ongoing conflict. Look at how recent the former Yugoslav people were massacring each other. Look at how many of the conflicts are related to former and/or current US and UK policies/actions… eg, carving up land into country borders that don’t make any sense all over Asia and Africa, manipulating and interfering with elections, bribing other govt leaders to allow “western” countries to do whatever they want. When you open your eyes, you realize that it’s really the “west” that is corrupt as can be!!

Her description of that nearly inextinguishable drive to communicate, write, or to work with words, but also how easy it was for her to undervalue her talent in the shadows of what’s already been written…very relatable. It’s painful to realize how high your expectations of what “good poetry” or “meaningful work” are when it’s yourself that’s under scrutiny. How much more strict the standards get with each fantastic writer you discover…all that self-doubt that builds over time, sometimes it suffocates a person whose words might have truly connected with others. I really needed to hear from a “good writer” that they feel all that just as strongly. And they keep going anyway. Very motivating ✌🏻🖤

We love you Plestia. You have done more than enough. I find her sooo relatable especially with a strict mom who wants you home before dark 😂 it’s definitely a challenge when you’re trying to build your career!!
So pretty little woman the way she tell her story or experience the palestian people are the strongest people on earth with dignity and honour ☝️☝️☝️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲
Despite the images of the destruction of Gaza, the global image of Palestine and Palestinians is infinitely more beautiful than the genocidal evil of Israel and with each passing day, any empathy for Israel is drying like a desert. Netanyahu and Israel has destroyed themselves with their apartheid state and disproportionate violence more than any destruction and evil they can commit on the people they see and treat as less than animals.

Plestia, Middle East Eye, Al Jareeza, Palestinian journalists, doctors, rescuers, mothers, fathers, and thousands of children themselves have opened my eyes, and the entire world. I regret not knowing about Palestinian suffering / oppression before Oct 7th. I do now. P.S. the story of her grandfathers dog is so sad.
I agree but it’s important that the world also sees the graphic images of what’s happening because at least this time people around the world are outraged & they are demanding change. It might not have worked completely yet. But things are moving even though it might seem like it’s not. I think we need both. Coverage of the atrocities & coverage of the beauty, normality, & humanity of the Palestinian people.
Amazing. What a beautiful soul. She’s been through five wars. She’s saying things that no one should have to see and she survived! Now she can tell the story. So many people would want to just forget about it and move on. She is humanities hope.
Plestia, thank you for bearing and sharing all your experience with the world. Im sorry is not easy yet... When I see your posts i get sadly glad you are safe. Much respect and Love to you.
Thank you for having her. She’s impressive. God bless her. So sad the situation in Gaza I’m sure she wish she could return to her country sad. I felt that as she was reading her poem it was touching made me cry 😢
My hope is that you will be a voice for the whole world to know about Palestine. If you want that to be not the horrors and atrocities that are happening right now. I’m sure it will be a beautiful thing. God bless you take care of your health take care of your life and tell stories. maybe one day, my grandkids or my future great grandkids will read your stories.Best wishes sweet daughter of Palestine 🇵🇸. FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA, PALESTINE WILL BE FREE🇵🇸
I understood she was dead, and got so demoralized since Oct, 23, asking, 'oh God how did you not protect this Angel'. I just discovered she's alive,;-)
Palestia, Wishing you all the best success on your journey. Your insights are valuable and I encourage you to continue expanding your knowledge adding critical substance & deeper intellect. you are young and have lots of time to further grow, reflect and inspire. Lots to learn from our own scholars as well as the sophistication & the counter-arguments of the enemy rep. themselves as well.
She is of course, the only human I know with the name Plestia. From the first video i saw of hers, had a feeling her name had something to do with Phalestine. Beautiful name, beautiful sister. inshaaAllah we all get to see Phalestine free and travel there. Long blessed life for Plestia and Phalestine ❤
May Allah bless Palstia for her bravery. Nobody deserves to go through whats happening to them. May her become successful in everything she does. I Love hearing stories of people who managed to escape the genocide
I’m not sure, probably till many years later will all these guys realise what they have done by sharing their stories, they’ve created a movement, it’s slow but they are freeing Gaza and educating the rest of the world. They are a huge part of history. Things are changing.
Here are 3 reasons why people support the Palestinian cause: 1- "The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies." - Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949 Israel has been violating the above UN law for the last 56 years by building illegal settlements in the Palestinian territories recognized by the international community, including the USA, Great Britain and European Union. Note: Palestinian territories currently only form 22 percent of the historic Palestine territory which includes Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem with a population of over 5.3 million Palestinians. 2- Between 2008 and October 6th, 2023, the Israeli Army killed six thousand four hundred (6,400) Palestinians, as reported by the respected English journalist and author, Grace Blakeley. Surprisingly, virtually there has been no condemnation or discussion of these atrocities by mainstream media. 3- Israel always claims that it has withdrawn from Gaza in 2005 and pulled out 8000 settlers, whilst this is correct however, the following conspicuous facts are also true: A- Although Israel pulled out 8000 settlers from Gaza, it has placed more than half a million illegal settlers in other Palestinian territories which are recognised by the international community. [ Source- The economist - 06.11.2023] B- Despite the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 it has not allowed the Palestinians to have their own airport or seaport in Gaza or indeed the West Bank. C- Access to Water, Electricity, Telecommunications, Internet and the Borders of Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem have been controlled exclusively by Israel for the last 56 years.
How would a nation of more than 5.3 million people feel in a land without an airport and where the basic essentials of life were controlled by other country?

I'm so happy for her, I first knew her ever since she was amongst the destruction documenting the beginning of the genocide and so afraid for her lol and her updates!
I HATE how the interviewer moans to show that he is listening intently. You do that when you are talking to a friend, not during a podcast. I could not continue the amazing talk because of that Emmmm emmmm! It killed me!!!! Plus the sound is not good like you are in an open space. Please use noise cancellation products. In podcast, the quality of voice is the most important thing.
50 minutes of talking about nothing... quite disappointing that she says she is a "journalist" who wants to tell the truth about Gaza from her point of view. The truth and all I saw unfortunately, was the covering up of the truth... until she had the opportunity to tell the whole world the truth, she chose to describe the situation as a war that happened by itself between ״two armies ״for the occupation of the territory. Ahhh maybe she forgot because of her trauma, how the cursed date that will never be forgotten forever 7/10 started because of a cruel bloodthirsty and sadistic terrorist organization Hamas. who chose their cowardly and terrifying way to commit murder of civilians, kidnapping, rape, burning. And photograph everything with joy and morbid euphoria. Hamas, which has ruled Gaza for more than 20 years, and whose family, like all Palestinians, chose them. whose leaders fled to Qatar and live a life of wealth at its expense. They really care about them right? .that she is under "occupation" but traveled the world in the past... what unnecessary program and propaganda she chose to spread to the world that watches her as if her leaders have no responsibility for what her family and the citizens of Palestine are now experiencing as a result of the shocking war they started! I don't think she realizes how silly it sounds to describe the state of the war without starting from where it really started. But all those people who really think this is the truth, this moment proved more than anything that her dream of being a "reliable journalist" is in doubt! Definitely a waste of time to watch! Maybe she forgot the truth because of her trauma...
Plestia is such a beautiful soul. She made such valuable contributions to recording the first genocide to be documented as it continues to unfold by the victims and oppressors. I'm thankful she's safe now, and I hope all Palestinians will be safe. Viva Palestine!
Yep. Beautiful inside and out.

Its not a contradiction, since being jewish has nothing to do with supporting israel. One just has to look at the reality, to wish everything good on the Palestinians and everything bad on the Israelis
@raidbenachoure1330I had the same reaction to your comment. It sounds awful. So you could just take the feedback and do better rather than play the victim. I’m really tired of the linguicism that I am seeing a lot these days in YT comments.

@@Lenamaslow I'm Jewish and it breaks my heart too. What matters is we know what's right and wrong. Equality and no ethnic cleansing and no genocide. We're all brothers and sisters in the world.
When criticism of Israel upsets some people more than the genocide of 40,000 innocent civilians ~ Being lost for words is an understatement ~
So true exactly
Not only that the ones that are alive with no limbs are in the 100s 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Dystopia
Number of the dead: Trust me bro
U should think before attacking . first of all there is no difference between Hamas(terrorists) and Palestinians (supporters)
She is a lady of substance. She is an excellent inspiration to the young generation.
I've been following her after October 7th and I can't believe all that she went through, this genocide, she lost everything and still she smiles and keeps her kindness. Palestinians are the most beautiful kind people in the world. So much respect for her ❤

@@Justice-e5k What the duck are you talking about Zionist bot? We are not blind and we have seen with our own eyes what this brave woman has reported for months since October 7th??? Not only her but we have seen thousands of videos and pictures. Not only that the names of the martyrs have been already reported and confirmed by external organizations (not Hamas) and more than 33.000 Palestinians have been killed since October 7th, which more than 14 000 were children. How can anyone justify that???? We have seen thousands of dead bodies of children rapped in white bags. We have seen thousands of videos of kids without limbs that were amputated without anesthesia. We have seen faces of innocent children that have been burned with white phosphorus (which is illegal) we have seen the massive destruction of a beautiful city that was once Gaza. The IDF is a terrorist organization that bombs innocent children and innocent people and destroys life. The IDF rapes women and mocks about it on tik tok. They even mock about the killing and suffering of innocent people. They are sick. Moreover, the war was started by Israel because before the creation of Israel there was a country named Palestine 🇵🇸 My family comes from Palestine and they were force to leave in 1940 because Israel was killing them and oppressing them since then. They even built a wall and have check points all around the west bank so Palestinians can't move freely in their own country. They don't have an army so it's not a war and you know it. IT IS A COLONIAL PROJECT AND A GENOCIDE. IT IS THE ETHNIC CLEANSING OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF PALESTINE. Israel is not only killing them with bombs but starving them to dead. They don't have access to food or clean water and they are eating grass and donkeys. More than 1.2 million Palestinians have been displaced and have no home AND THE MAJORITY OF THE PALESTINIAN POPULATION ARE CHILDREN. YOU KNOW WHAT VALUES ARE? HOW CAN YOU JUSTIFY THE MASS KILLING OF INNOCENT PEOPLE? YOU'RE COLD. The propaganda machine comes only from the higher power of Israel , UK and the U.S because they have the money. They profit from the colonial project because of the oil and natural gas trade and also because the U.S laundry machine. So you can't come here and call my ancestors and family terrorists BECAUSE WE KNOW OUR HISTORY. Say all the lies you want to say but people are not stupid AND YOU CAN'T KILL THE TRUTH. There is years of evidence of the oppression and genocide. You're an evil cold person! Join Jewish Voice for peace and get a heart and a brain. Anyone justifying genocide has no values.

I love hearing from Palestinian people. Through their stories, it helps me re-humanize them as people. In the west, we have allowed the war machine to create an overall impression of a tribal society within the Arab context. Continuously fighting amongst themselves for centuries and will never change. It is, therefore, acceptable to sell the necessary weapons needed to defend themselves. This conveniently allows westerners to minimize the reality of death and destruction that is being delivered upon the Middle East daily. Without people expressing their love of their homeland, in spite of the struggles, we would have no relationship point with which we could identify. Keep telling these stories. Too me, it moves the needle more dramatically than protests ever could.
Agreed, it’s the most effective method of changing minds and moving hands. I think there’s a need for protest, but it should always come with natural persuasion like this.
When the cause is just, fair, reasonable, good - then the mere interaction with or hearing from individuals that support it (authentically) is so powerful that it’s rarely ever allowed
Palestinians have a beautiful way of expressing themselves. Even the little children. The more I’ve listened to them the more I understand why it’s taken billions of dollars a year to suppress their voice and dehumanise them.
Some of us have seen the humanity of Palestinians for decades. And of the rest of people in the Middle East. Talking to people from different cultures and people who have travelled with genuine interest in other cultures makes an enormous difference. Sadly, too many people don’t seek those opportunities even though they have plenty in their diverse communities. It’s governments that tend to be awful, not most of the people. And by the way, it’s not just in the Middle East that there is ongoing conflict. Look at how recent the former Yugoslav people were massacring each other. Look at how many of the conflicts are related to former and/or current US and UK policies/actions… eg, carving up land into country borders that don’t make any sense all over Asia and Africa, manipulating and interfering with elections, bribing other govt leaders to allow “western” countries to do whatever they want. When you open your eyes, you realize that it’s really the “west” that is corrupt as can be!!

Her description of that nearly inextinguishable drive to communicate, write, or to work with words, but also how easy it was for her to undervalue her talent in the shadows of what’s already been written…very relatable.
It’s painful to realize how high your expectations of what “good poetry” or “meaningful work” are when it’s yourself that’s under scrutiny. How much more strict the standards get with each fantastic writer you discover…all that self-doubt that builds over time, sometimes it suffocates a person whose words might have truly connected with others.
I really needed to hear from a “good writer” that they feel all that just as strongly. And they keep going anyway.
Very motivating ✌🏻🖤
She is part of the unbeatable generation, resilient and extremely determined, and the flood will carry them back home.

No it isnt but she is pretty and that she tells her story or experience with a poem makes her more pretty@@tariqkhonji6556
Not only her face but her heart and soul too
Saying nice things about palestian people is unacceptable by yt its removed inmidiyetly@@tariqkhonji6556
Almost all my comments are removed by yt
Thank you for sharing your story. You remind me of the diary of Ann Frank that we grew up reading in the US. May you continue to speak up.
Despite the images of the destruction of Gaza, the global image of Palestine and Palestinians is infinitely more beautiful than the genocidal evil of Israel and with each passing day, any empathy for Israel is drying like a desert. Netanyahu and Israel has destroyed themselves with their apartheid state and disproportionate violence more than any destruction and evil they can commit on the people they see and treat as less than animals.
She is such a strong and bright girl and many like her still in Gaza deserve a better life, peace and opportunity in their own land!
Such a beautiful person may you get to see and live in a free Palestine you deserve to be home 🫶🏽
So glad to learn about you, Plestia. You have a beautiful spirit! Please take good care!! Keep telling stories.
50 minutes of talking about nothing…. It is quite disappointing that she says she is a "journalist" who wants to tell about Gaza from her point of view. The truth and all I saw, unfortunately, was a cover-up of the truth... Until she had the invitation to tell the whole world the truth, she chose to describe the situation as a war that happened by itself between two armies for the occupation of territory. Ahhh maybe she forgot because of her trauma, how the cursed date of Yishkah will forever be forgotten 7/10 started because of a cruel bloodthirsty and sadistic terrorist organization Hamas. who chose the cowardly and terrifying way of murdering civilians, kidnapping, raping, burning. And to film it all with joyous cries. Hamas which has ruled Gaza for more than 20 years. that its leaders fled to Qatar and live a life of wealth at its expense. that she is under "occupation" but has traveled the world before... What an unnecessary program and propaganda she chose to produce for the world that watches it as if its leaders have no responsibility for what her family and the citizens of Palestine are now experiencing as a result of the shocking war they started! I don't think she realizes how silly it sounds to describe the state of the war without starting from the point where it really started. But all those people who really think that this is the truth, this moment proved more than anything that her dream of being a "reliable journalist" is in doubt! Definitely a waste of time watching! Maybe she forgot the truth because of her trauma...
Plestia, Middle East Eye, Al Jareeza, Palestinian journalists, doctors, rescuers, mothers, fathers, and thousands of children themselves have opened my eyes, and the entire world. I regret not knowing about Palestinian suffering / oppression before Oct 7th. I do now.
P.S. the story of her grandfathers dog is so sad.
When she said I don’t think it’s the people, it’s the people in power, what kind of heart this person has 🥹
Thank you for this podcast with Plestia ❤
I agree but it’s important that the world also sees the graphic images of what’s happening because at least this time people around the world are outraged & they are demanding change. It might not have worked completely yet. But things are moving even though it might seem like it’s not. I think we need both. Coverage of the atrocities & coverage of the beauty, normality, & humanity of the Palestinian people.
Amazing. What a beautiful soul. She’s been through five wars. She’s saying things that no one should have to see and she survived! Now she can tell the story. So many people would want to just forget about it and move on. She is humanities hope.
Free Palestine!! 🍉❤️
Thank god for all the brave and courageous souls sgaring their VOICES so the world can see and hear 🙏 truth.
Plestia, thank you for bearing and sharing all your experience with the world. Im sorry is not easy yet... When I see your posts i get sadly glad you are safe. Much respect and Love to you.
Wow! Amazing people.
Thank you for having her. She’s impressive. God bless her. So sad the situation in Gaza I’m sure she wish she could return to her country sad. I felt that as she was reading her poem it was touching made me cry 😢
The futur is full of good things with people like Plestia and with all brave people of Palestine.
🇵🇸♥️☮️☀️
My hope is that you will be a voice for the whole world to know about Palestine. If you want that to be not the horrors and atrocities that are happening right now. I’m sure it will be a beautiful thing. God bless you take care of your health take care of your life and tell stories. maybe one day, my grandkids or my future great grandkids will read your stories.Best wishes sweet daughter of Palestine 🇵🇸. FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA, PALESTINE WILL BE FREE🇵🇸
Freedom for Palestine
Thank you from Canada for the great interview.
Nice 👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️
Feels so good to see her alive and well. I wish the other Palestinians were as fortunate
I understood she was dead, and got so demoralized since Oct, 23, asking, 'oh God how did you not protect this Angel'. I just discovered she's alive,;-)
MashAllah this podcast had an really strong message to the world.
Such a courageous young woman. Her work will never be forgotten.
Palestia, Wishing you all the best success on your journey. Your insights are valuable and I encourage you to continue expanding your knowledge adding critical substance & deeper intellect. you are young and have lots of time to further grow, reflect and inspire. Lots to learn from our own scholars as well as the sophistication & the counter-arguments of the enemy rep. themselves as well.
Courage is made in Palestine
She is of course, the only human I know with the name Plestia. From the first video i saw of hers, had a feeling her name had something to do with Phalestine. Beautiful name, beautiful sister.
inshaaAllah we all get to see Phalestine free and travel there.
Long blessed life for Plestia and Phalestine ❤
❤️
A beautiful sould with a heartwarming story! Many thumbs up!
Free Palestina ❤
Saw her videos very happy she's alive👍
❤❤❤❤❤🥺🥺
May Allah bless Palstia for her bravery. Nobody deserves to go through whats happening to them. May her become successful in everything she does. I Love hearing stories of people who managed to escape the genocide
Yt is shadowb-ing all these contents very aggressively
Yeah noticed that.
Aww 🥰
Thank you Plestia.❤️❤️❤️
Free Palestine stop genocide
Another great interview!!
If she doesn't touch your soul, nothing will!
بارك الله فيكم
Proud to be Palestinian despite being an ex Muslim atheist I will love my people and all Arabs ❤
You're also a Trump supporter. You do realise Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner are no friends of Palestinians either?
What does your faith have to do with this? No one cares if you an ex whatever. Religion is a personal choice mate. Peace
@@princessbynature5021 Peace because people like you exist peace 🤣🤣🤣🖕🖕🖕
@Alexandriaqp it’s because we are persecuted by the likes of you too and yet I’m still loyal to my country that’s how I understand it know how 🤣🖕
@@princessbynature5021why be rude to a commenter showing support? 🙄😵💫
She’s so cute, beautiful, intelligent and inspiring ❤
I’m not sure, probably till many years later will all these guys realise what they have done by sharing their stories, they’ve created a movement, it’s slow but they are freeing Gaza and educating the rest of the world. They are a huge part of history. Things are changing.
Here are 3 reasons why people support the Palestinian cause:
1-
"The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies."
- Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949
Israel has been violating the above UN law for the last 56 years by building illegal settlements in the Palestinian territories recognized by the international community, including the USA, Great Britain and European Union.
Note:
Palestinian territories currently only form 22 percent of the historic Palestine territory which includes Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem with a population of over 5.3 million Palestinians.
2-
Between 2008 and October 6th, 2023, the Israeli Army killed six thousand four hundred (6,400) Palestinians, as reported by the respected English journalist and author, Grace Blakeley. Surprisingly, virtually there has been no condemnation or discussion of these atrocities by mainstream media.
3-
Israel always claims that it has withdrawn from Gaza in 2005 and pulled out 8000 settlers, whilst this is correct however, the following conspicuous facts are also true:
A- Although Israel pulled out 8000 settlers from Gaza, it has placed more than half a million illegal settlers in other Palestinian territories which are recognised by the international community. [ Source- The economist - 06.11.2023]
B- Despite the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 it has not allowed the Palestinians to have their own airport or seaport in Gaza or indeed the West Bank.
C- Access to Water, Electricity, Telecommunications, Internet and the Borders of Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem have been controlled exclusively by Israel for the last 56 years.
How would a nation of more than 5.3 million people feel in a land without an airport and where the basic essentials of life were controlled by other country?
Beautiful soul
Midia bias is unbelievable, like covered from parrarel universe 😢 While bombing continues
Thank you. Lovely.

Ассаламу Алайкум. Из Москва.

What a beautiful soul she is ❤ they deserve all the good in the world long live Palestine
Amazing soul. Thank you plestia
😢😢😢
❤❤❤❤
I'm so happy for her, I first knew her ever since she was amongst the destruction documenting the beginning of the genocide and so afraid for her lol and her updates!
Kurdish people stand with Palestine.
I don't even want to hear what the Israelis do to the Palestinian's pets. How a people treats animals tells you something about the person.
👍
After Oct 7 massacres . What type of kindness this girl does talk about ?
What type of humanity do Palestinians deserve ?
How much per post? STFU
Really! You are nothing but a theft with no compassion.
I HATE how the interviewer moans to show that he is listening intently. You do that when you are talking to a friend, not during a podcast. I could not continue the amazing talk because of that Emmmm emmmm! It killed me!!!! Plus the sound is not good like you are in an open space. Please use noise cancellation products. In podcast, the quality of voice is the most important thing.
Negba/Nakba?
Why has she run away?!
As for Israel God is watching, Netanyahu is a modern day king Herod.
Netanyahu is a devil, he is no king
Her accent comes across like there’s a bit of Irish in it
Should not go to Australia 🇦🇺
Go to Turkish countries or Russia Iran Africa

They really care about them right? .that she is under "occupation" but traveled the world in the past... what unnecessary program and propaganda she chose to spread to the world that watches her as if her leaders have no responsibility for what her family and the citizens of Palestine are now experiencing as a result of the shocking war they started!

Exactly right
This is an interview on the person not a political interview
Two armies battling for the occupation of a territory? Are you mad? Get informed.
