      The USA does not have the moral latitude to educate the Nazi/Zionist occupying Palestine given USA's treatment of Indigenous Americans. It was the that genocide was committed against native Americans, thus allowing for the occupation of their land. Zionists action in Palestine is a continuation of Caucasians theft and occupation of other peoples land, be it in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, Italy, Argentina, Brazil just to mention a few. In other words, the Zionists are simply following precedent. What a shame?

      Tslking of crazed accusations from crazed Jews. Two days after the attack the BBC interviewed a Jewish woman who was on the verge of hysteria. She was shaking and shouting uncontrollably. She was basically making up stories as she went. One particular whopper was that she saw a Hamas trooper grab a Jewish Kibbutz women who was pregnant. She continued to say that the savage brute reached inside her womb, pulled out her baby and proceeded to kill it. The fact the BBC did not edit that deranged woman was a disgrace.

      It is the Sunnis who want a caliphate. Not Shia Iran. I bet you don't even know the difference between the 2 don't you ? By the way, Hamas was maneuvered into power and allowed bank transfer payments from Qatar APROVED by the Israeli government, talk about facilitating their rise to power ! Not me saying it but Israeli politician themselves ! Looks like you need o EDUCATE yourself. Also, Gazans VOTED for Hamas you fool. NO ONE is advocating for the destruction of Israel. NO ONE. Not even Hamas, they revised their charter saying that they believe in the 2 state solution. The attack from Hamas did not happen in a vacuum. 75 years ago Palestinians were dispossessed and thrown out of their land displaced from land they had been living for hundreds of years while Jews had been displaced all over the world for hundreds of years. No one forced the Jews to come. They came and willfully and with enthusiast displaced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians all to create Israel. If my book says that my ancestors lived on your land 3000 years ago will you allow me to come and take half of your house ? I don't think so. Why are you even siding with genocidal tendencies ? Are you mentally sound ? You are sick in the head. Hamas is not the problem here. The problem is the Israeli government that does not even try to resolve the Palestinian question. No effort what so ever. They still occupy the west bank and still Israeli settlers illegally create settlements in the west banks which all countries in the world recognizes as being Palestinian territory. When you treat a group of human beings as sub human and you subject them to daily humiliation, don't ask yourself why they attack you and revolt. You would do the same. Just for fuck sake cant you put yourself in the shoes of the side you don't ;like for a second ? No I don't hate Jews. I love all human beings, just in case you resort to the childish accusation of me being antisemite. @@highcountrydelatite

    Abby and Roger, everything that you've done for the Palestinian people is just amazing.
    I know that some people think that most of what they're doing is talking, but that helps. Everything that they do help and it's very admirable that these dedicated their life for defending the opressed. One day when Palestine will be free I have no doubt in my mind that many Palestinians will look at them as heroes becuase they're already considered as such.
    I hope that there will be a future where this oppression of all these people around the world (not just Palestinians) will stop and we can finally live as human beings, the eay that we're supposed to live

My goal was to be able to understand each of them so as to reflect back to them in my own words what their view was of the conflict. It opened my eyes quite to my surprise. I had no idea how it would change me when I started. But at the end of that project I was no longer pro Israel.

      Really? Beautiful? Ok, but what about the following?
      He doesn't judge people by nationality? Are the Nipps still good at building ships Roger? When I was younger I used to think the Wall was the best anti-fascist work of art ever, but I began to suspect some disingenuousness in it. Roger Waters later sort of confirms my suspicions. He clearly doesn't understand fascism of WWII simply by saying, as he does in this interview, that Gaza is a concentration camp. Really Roger? Like the ones that defined the term from WWII, most of the natiest forms found in Poland...like those? Or have you hijacked the term into some Watered down usage, pun intended.
      I can't believe that he says Gaza is a concentration camp and maintains a straight face. The average life span in Gaza is measured in decades; the average life span in say a place like Majdanek or Auschwitz; was on average measured in days - in a place like Belzec it was measured in minutes; 45 to be exact. Gaza is a concentration camp? I was watching some footage of the bombing in Gaza and I remember seeing a late model Mercedes crushed under some rubble; thinking, if it was mine I might have got in that and headed South and what a waste. The only people driving a Mercedes in Majdanek and Auschwitz were the SS, certainly not the Jews Roger. Gaza the concentration where you can drive a Merc........Gaza is a concentration camp? I don't think so Roger
      I'll tell you what places like Majdanek or Auschwitz didn't have, tunnels constructed out of concrete in which to escape, running water at all, no food, or clothing or personal possessions, heating or air conditioning, no cars, no privacy at all, because there were no apartments or houses in Majdanek or Auschwitz; no places of worship, no place of burial if you died from the daily gassings, bashings or torture. No hospitals, unless they were doing medical experiments on you - they had brothels, so there was plenty of rape.
      Yeah Roger, you f...wit, Gaza is a concentration camp, just like Majdanek or Auschwitz
