The craziest thing about being creative is that Israel is not a

00:00:04 --> 00:00:07

democratic state. It is an apartheid regime, as noted by

00:00:07 --> 00:00:11

Amnesty International, that Israel claimed that babies were beheaded,

00:00:11 --> 00:00:15

when in reality, Palestinian babies have been literally cleaved

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

in half. There are so much footage coming out of a you can literally

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

just look up videos and see them. It's a tooth out borders in Gaza

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

said that 100% of their patients treated on Wednesday were

00:00:24 --> 00:00:27

children. Is that Israel detains five to 700 children a year. They

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

are subjected to blindfolding at the time of arrest, they are

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

sometimes shot and have broken bones and denied healthcare while

00:00:33 --> 00:00:36

nourished. They are not allowed to have an adult with them. Are

00:00:36 --> 00:00:39

required to sign something in Hebrew, a language many of them do

00:00:39 --> 00:00:41

not understand. They are taken in the middle of the night. They are

00:00:41 --> 00:00:44

sexually abused, of course, emotionally abused, including

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

putting them in solitary confinement for days. The most

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

common reason Palestinian children are jailed and tried in military

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

court is for throwing rocks. Palestinians rely on Israel for

00:00:54 --> 00:00:58

permission to be able to receive medical care, and they are

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

routinely denied 2023 and if you haven't seen videos, Zion is

00:01:02 --> 00:01:06

forcibly taking lands of Palestinians and their homes. You

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

are stealing my house, and if I don't steal it, someone else is

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

gonna steal it, calling for a Nakba, which is the literal

00:01:12 --> 00:01:16

slaughter of 10s of 1000s of Palestinians. How do you think

00:01:16 --> 00:01:19

this hate exists? They murdered and forcibly removed people living

00:01:19 --> 00:01:22

there to bring new people in. Those want to make this a

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

religious issue, making it seem as if Jews are on one side and

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

Palestinian Muslims and Christians are on another side. Jews,

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

Christians and Muslims lived together for centuries in peace,

00:01:31 --> 00:01:35

in Palestine. This is from the 1800s where Jewish worshipers are

00:01:35 --> 00:01:39

worshiping at the Wailing Wall. Every person of conscience wants

00:01:39 --> 00:01:42

everyone to live with safety. This is why there are so many Jewish

00:01:42 --> 00:01:45

voices speaking against these atrocities, including ex IDF

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

soldiers who speak about wetting their beds every night because of

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

what they were ordered to do to Palestinians most haunts you and

00:01:51 --> 00:01:55

your conscience about what you did in your time as a soldier. For me,

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

it's the routine way we control the Palestinians, right? The

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

Palestinian can wake up in the morning and not know if you will

00:02:01 --> 00:02:04

be at work on time go to sleep. Not know if soldiers will invade

00:02:04 --> 00:02:08

his home. We basically control the most simple and basic elements of

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

life at roads and the settlements are so forth and so forth. They

00:02:11 --> 00:02:14

exist all around the occupied territories, military activity,

00:02:14 --> 00:02:18

home invasions, patrols, digital surveillance. It's dehumanizing.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

Palestinians calling them little animals, and then for over 2

00:02:21 --> 00:02:24

million people who cannot go anywhere, bombing them. But the

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

craziest thing about being creative is that you can lie,

00:02:28 --> 00:02:32

conduct literal war crimes for 75 years and then ask victims who are

00:02:32 --> 00:02:35

coming out of the rubble of their home having lost generations of

00:02:35 --> 00:02:38

their family in just 30 seconds, do you denounce violence? There

00:02:38 --> 00:02:41

are two sides of this conflict, the occupier and the Occupy which

00:02:41 --> 00:02:45

means it's not a conflict at all. It's literal genocide. You.
