00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			This message is for CNN.
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			CNN, your piece which speaks about Israeli soldiers
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:09
			running over hundreds of Palestinians and that's why
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			they can't eat meat anymore, sounds like this
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			when you contextualize it.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			Nazi soldiers cannot eat meat because every time
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			they look at meat, it reminds them of
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			the corpses of the holocaust victims that they
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			mass gassed.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			It's giving colonizers can no longer eat meat
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			because every time they try, they remember the
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:32
			Native Americans whom they slaughtered.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			It's giving slave masters can no longer eat
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			meat because every time they look at meat,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			they remember the way that they butchered, kidnapped,
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			raped, and enslaved for generations.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			It's not just that all of us have
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50
			witnessed actual footage of the civilians in the
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:54
			hundreds that were run over, the children, their
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:57
			parents, the elderly, right outside of a hospital
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			when they were taking refuge in tents and
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			were already wounded.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			Probably any of us can remember the body
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			parts that we saw strewn all over.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			Probably any of us can remember the pregnant
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			woman who was holding up a white flag,
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			who had gone into labor, and who was
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			waving that white flag at the tank.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			And then the Israeli soldiers continued to go
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			ahead and run over her body.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:21
			CNN, you have seen all of these videos
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			because Israeli soldiers themselves take videos and then
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:24
			laugh.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			They do TikTok dances while they are the
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:30
			ones who are the cause of the amputations
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			of over a thousand children without any anesthesia
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			because they are also the same ones who
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			are ensuring that no aid goes into Gaza.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			CNN, you have seen the children of Gaza
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			and yet you have allowed yourself to produce
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:48
			a piece in which an Israeli soldier admits
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			that he killed everybody.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			Everybody because all of them are terrorists.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			Well, whether it is the premature babies whose
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			video footage we saw had maggots all over
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			them because Israel would not allow for the
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			Red Cross after they said that they were
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08
			going to, to take those premature babies out.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			Israeli soldiers had at gunpoint forced their families
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			and the medical staff to leave.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			Whether it is the mass graves where we
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:19
			have seen Palestinian children, the corpses of the
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			children with their hands zip-tied behind their
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:27
			back, including people who were hospitalized with actual
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:32
			catheters still inside of their bodies with blindfolds
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			on, or the tens of thousands of stories
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			like that of Hind Rajab where documentation has
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:41
			found that Israeli soldiers have intentionally sniped heads
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:45
			and necks to paralyze Palestinian children.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:48
			We all know exactly what you are trying
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			to do with your piece.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			The difference is that unlike years ago, we
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:56
			can also witness not only the crimes of
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			Israel, but those who spread their propaganda like
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:58
			you.
