Mohammad Elshinawy – Who Condemns Israel on Business Matters

			All
		

			right, we are back with us marriage really important. So Muhammad you mentioned I do thank you, you
could have easily said, no interest. We don't we don't want to. We don't want to show up here. And
as someone, My middle child say middle child seven, I'm always looking for love where we can find
it. And I certainly have a ton of friends in the in the Jewish community. And certainly friends in
in, in the Middle East community if you want to use that in and
		

			I guess
		

			where do we go? I mean, how do we get a new topic to say how does it stop? And and do you get that
right now? The temperature is high in terms of what was seen as the attack, not saying that the
attack on the Israeli community. Right. And I mean, this is the second time you keep saying the
attack on the Israeli community respectfully, right. Okay. You know, there have been 3500 people, at
least to this day yesterday. And Anglican Church in Gaza, not even Muslim was bombed 500 to 1000
casualties. The Human Rights Watch has confirmed the use of internationally outlawed chemical
weapons white phosphorus. You know, that boils at 1500 degrees Fahrenheit, right, you can hear the
		

			passion in my voice. People have pulled out over 1000 babies in pieces so far from under the rubble
and Gaza. And all we're hearing about is suppose it attacks by Hamas that so much of which have yet
to be confirmed. We have our own US president say I saw images of babies being decapitated. And the
White House themselves had to come out and say actually, he didn't see that. Right. And now our
president is saying if you want even bring it locally, the President is saying there's an uptick in
domestic threats. And so we're sort of mobilizing federal and local law enforcement 911 all over
again. And so the Muslim community right now, without mincing words, feels under attack by this
		

			vilifying language. And this is not hypotheticals or theoretical or potentially being under attack
by being dehumanized. For standing up against the atrocities in Gaza. We have little idea a six year
old boy in Chicago has been stabbed to death 26 times by his 71 year old landlord, that's been
binging on mainstream media, right? The bias in the narrative, the one sidedness right, and the
bullying of the Muslim community. Do you condemn Hamas is a question that you're probably to
consider it to ask what everywhere Muslims go, Do you condemn Hamas? Well, we don't represent Hamas.
Number one. Hamas is the elected government. Number two, the people in Gaza right now didn't even
		

			elect that government. Many people don't know, Gaza, as former US president said is the largest open
air prison in the world, a densely populated strip of shore 60 miles long, where the majority of
people there are D possessed or displaced from other parts of Palestine. So they're refugees into
Gaza. Right? And yet you have the Israeli defense ministers and otherwise saying they voted them in
saying we're dealing with human animals. And so the Muslim community right now will consistently you
will find them reluctant to condemn Hamas because they diversion it's a distraction from the
genocide. You know, according to UN law, people hear me out for a second I like people that are
		

			deprived the food, water electricity, people that are carpet bombed and civilians being targeted
sniping down journalists. So the other side of the narrative doesn't get out. Medical Centers fire
bombings with a missile strike I hospital yesterday, these are war crimes. There's this is not a
media narrative. These are established confirmed war crimes that we can't hold the us accountable
for. Right. We don't expect them it's not surprising to hear alignment, because this is their
colonial outpost, we get it. It's their nuclear ally, we get it. But the Muslims will continue to do
that. Despite the fact that I'm getting calls right now. There was a gun pulled on a Muslim in
		

			Harrisburg. I got to figure out what's hate related or not. Can I just heard of another in Montclair
University got to figure out whether I want to give you all the time I can. But I appreciate. I'll
end here. What I'm saying is the question on do we condemn? It's actually we believe it is a
diversion? If I say yes, they say that's why Israel's attacking with wild disproportionality, which
is a war crime. If we say no, we don't condemn, then we are terrorists like them. I say that's where
the festering do you say, though, because I appreciate you bringing that up. Because I really do and
to put that Hamas out on the table. What do you say? Why? Why do they have to? Why? Why do they have
		

			to make this sandwich when this happened? Are you saying, oh my gosh, why did Hamas have to do that?
I guess there's like, no, because I don't even know what's happened. Okay, should I not be everyone
is distrusting of the media. Let's be honest. It's just the media that doesn't align with your
preconceived notions you're untrusting of so we all agree that in principle, the media lies right.
The beheaded babies officially debunked never happened and people are still peddling this law.
		

			I, okay, sort of attacking the people at the festival we don't even know has that even happened yet
or not? Okay, if any of that happened, Muslims are blue in the face pre and post 911 pre and post
ISIS. Innocent civilians are never to be killed, innocent life are saying is sanctified across the
board of the fraternity of humanity essentially Islamic. But all of that is a red herring to get us
from holding the world accountable for not holding Israel accountable for its work. Just like you're
doing ecologist, you don't want to see this continuing. atrocity. Gotcha. We are not speaking up
except in the name of innocent lives being lost, and that only a portion of them that potentially
		

			have been attacked by hummus are the only ones seen as human everyone else's be humanized and get
sideswiped out of the conversation. I wish we had five more hours because this matters. Be right
back for a final session.
