- Jewish-American activist Simone Zimmerman tells the Big Picture Podcast that the values young Jews are taught about their faith and their history compels them to speak out against Israel and fight for Palestinian freedom.
Zimmerman’s personal story from a pro-Israeli student to a pro-Palestinian organiser was documented in the acclaimed new film ‘Israelism’.

As a Muslim I have so much respect for the Jews who are realizing this .
💯
You're human my friend you're born muslim.
Indeed
Yes it's a basic of our religion
Indeed
These Jewish youth are an asset to their culture and faith.
You mean off set ?
@@adenauercosta6477 definitely not
Total asset, a renewal of the faith and saving of their own community. Now the whole world knows how many sweet and brave people they got and bot everyone is a zionazi.
@@adenauercosta6477How's your English ? He ment they are good.
As a Palestinian first and as a human those are valuable not only for the Jewish community only and the whole world too , because we share the same value proud of you
It’s clear that she is talking from bottom of her heart. We salute your parents who taught her true human values.
It’s clear that she is talking from her bottom. A turkey voting for Christmas
It can't be a bad thing when people are thoughtful and sensitive, like this young woman. It's good to see people reading and thinking for themselves and looking to show kindness and wishing that the world could be kind.
People who have honour speak out against injustice and oppression!
Let her go and live with hamas as a Jew.
😂
Bless this Girl! So Beautifully said - Beautiful heart!
Yeah, but it takes a whole different level of honour to speak out against your own, and particularly when you have a history like the Jews and particularly when the people who you are defending are associated with those who had just butchered 1200 of your own people. When you see a Jew standing against the action in Gaza it is all the more impressive, particularly since the backlash from your own is so vitriolic. So this is on a whole different level, for example, from the honour required from those of us who spoke out against the Gulf War, that was easy. This takes considerably more integrity than most of us can dream of.
@@osric1730 How many Palestinians have spoken out against the holocaust of October 7? The conclusion is that none of them has integrity.
The fact that JEWISH , CHRISTIAN and MUSLIM… YOUTH can all agree and coexist with this same energy against evil just goes to show that WE CAN OBTAIN WORLD PEACE ! And live together as happy healthy humans on earth and not be controlled by evil!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
You taking piss the youth can’t even tell you what a woman is 😂
You kids are ignorant, plain and simple
Your delusional beyond belief its actually amazing
@@gamEnjoyLPr u deaf & blind in the heart ‽
Thank you . Respect for Jews who support Palestine. There is hope
Bless this Jewish lady
She is 100 percent correct.
They don't know Hamas wants to kill all the Jews 😅 she will regret once she is there
She has a heart, bless her

are you jewish? what are you to say on it
Lol no…
Being able to stand against members of your community in the name of justice is a true sign of courage and character.
Huge respect to my Jewish brothers and sisters who stand for peace.
This is a reasonable and intelligent jewish woman... We need people like this on both sides of the divide if enduring peace is to found...
Nice to see a fair, objective young Jewish person admit the truth. It gives me hope.
Thanks for standing up for humanity
Do not let them call you a self hating Jews they who don’t even adhere to the teachings of Judaism. As a Muslim thank you to those who are speaking out of all religions and ethnicities thank you.
Im a Jew born in Israel. Ana bahki Arabi, anta min wayn. This lady might not even be Jewish. For certain she does not adhere to the teachings of Judaism. Self hating Jew, first lets see who her mother and father are.
What a decent human being to speak about such injustice.
Peace no war❤❤❤❤ FREE PALESTINE for humanity
My Jewish brothers and sisters like this bright young woman have my utmost respect. We cannot fight this fight without you.
Agreed Almighty God will helping us
In 1834 (before political Zionsm was created) Arabs attacked the Jewish community of Safed. The 1834 looting of Safed was a prolonged attack against the Jewish community of Safed, Ottoman Empire, during the 1834 Peasants' Revolt. It began on Sunday June 15, the day after the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, and lasted for the next 33 days. Most contemporary accounts suggest it was a spontaneous attack which took advantage of a defenseless population in the midst of the armed uprising against Egyptian rule.
IT'S NOT ABOUT ZIONISM, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE LAND, IT'S PURE HATE.
Muslims have ethics and fear God and that is in our hearts and souls and bloods that we got from Islam .what you saying is a lies to find way to cover up what Israel is doing .reality nowadays is clear.
no more lies please. Shame on people like you're disgrace to humanity 😮
@@mikehunter7015 Would you like to go even further back to the Crusades? At what point does it become ridiculous and non-nonsensical to you? Perhaps you'd like to talk about the fall of the Kingdom of Israel or maybe about the Canaanites who later converted to Islam became Palestinians.
Just being like "Oh well back in 1834 before Palestine or Israel were even a thing there was this one conflict that happened and it was bad for Jews therefore Jews are righteous in taking land from Arabs!" If we went by the metric of giving or taking back from people who have given or taken from us it would drastically alter present-day borders and most places would belong to the Mongolian Empire or the British Empire.
Re-evaluate your take, of course there's emotion involved(there always will be on all sides), but there are real geo-political consequences to what happened in 1948 with the Nakba and the ethnic displacement of 2M+ Palestinians from their homes fleeing Zionist atrocities in what would become Israel.
@@mikehunter7015she's a baby living a delusional fantasy life
They will praise her here
They won't hesitate to hack her down when and where there will be no consequences
It's not about land
It is well documented in their book
No Civilization can change that
Glad to see someone who is willing to meet us half way . As a Palestinian I have never thought that I would live to see the day that honest and honourable Jews are taking a notice of our pain . Mr. Levy is one of them
They started this crime on Oct 7, and war has casualty, and innocent people have to die. This will never be compared to how many innocent people were killed during the Nazi era.
Thank you thank you thank you!
Your voices are so needed, especially being new generation ❤🇵🇸
I AGREE FATIMA. MILLIONS WILL FOLLOW FOR PEACE AND LOVE AND FOOD FOR THE MALNURISHED CHILDREN AND FAMILY's IN GODS NAME GIVE THEM FOOD WATER, AND MEDICINES GOD IS WATCHING. YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL PERSON IN HEART AND SOUL❤Godbless you and your life and family and forever your children and your childrens children AMEEN.

Thank you for your thoughtful statements. It is very uplifting to hear a young woman speak so honestly.❤
I’m so proud of you. You give this 56 year old man Hope.
Thank you for not enabling these crimes going unnoticed. Love from portugal to Palestine and the students in USA Thank you
She’s the ambassador and an example for the real Jewish community
The real Jewish community is 90% zionistic. She’s an outlier
Yep. 👍 💯
Alhamdulillah. The world is realizing this now.
no they arent
@@CaryGlennDavis
You will realize you are on the wrong side of history soon : Insaha’Allah🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻
She’s American and she never been in Israel so she’s not educated enough
What is not being discussed is that the main issue is that the Palestinians chose to war . They are attacking a more powerful country and suffer more and more . The Israelis are paranoid having someone living next door that would not stop attacking them. It doesn’t really matter about the protesters 🪧 because they don’t live there. It’s not going to change anything. The only thing I see that can give the beautiful children of Gaza a better chance at a normal life is that someone in the Hamas leadership to actually care about them and stop attacking Israel. What they can have in peace ✌🏽 is so much better then war .
As a 🇩🇪 German Catholic I agree and love to stand with people of good will against oppression 🙏 ❤️😊
What's it got to do with being a German Catholic? All you need to be is a human being.
The Gernan Nazis killed 6 million Jews and tortured them at concentration camps. Therefore they want to suppoert Israel. But they forget too often the sufferings of Palestinians. This Catholic is against the oppression of the palestinians
You are wrong..Hamas caused this big mess..The Netherlands supports Israël to defend their country. Know your Bible!!
@@fransvangoolen2972 Are you not catholic? You should know what Israel means
@@fransvangoolen2972 Jesus is not a killer. Hamas are dangerous religious fanatatics but was founded with the help of the israelian secret service Mossad.The killing of 30000 Palestinians is a genocide. You are worse than Hamas, if you believe God wants you to kill. In the name of God fanatic christians used to kill Jews, Look in you christian history
God bless conscientious Jews
You see the truth now America as well!!!❤
A much-needed breath of sanity and compassion!
Sensible, logical thinking young woman. Imagine if everyone thought this way.
Muslims will never think like that, never Seen a Muslim who sée what Islam do to others
Respect to this young lady for speaking the truth
Sister, you are not only beautiful. I can feel that every word that you said, is coming directly from your soul. Respect and love from a Muslim man
And yet, no condemnation of HAMAS.
She said it very eloquently ❤❤❤
Jews, Muslim and Christian stand together ❤️ in US
Ordinary jews, muslim and christian stand together except for those who are in the govt and stand to gain from AIPAC.
In middle east they are fighting
no they dont
They stand against Zionism & are for a FREE PALESTINE. Us govt is pro Zionist.👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
I stand in solidarity with the people who have showed bravery for more than 75 years. Thank you Ireland, Spain, Belgium , South Africa and Guyana for your support.
The politicians and media in UK have shown themselves up for what they are. Society must take a stand against them. Don’t vote Labour and Conservative
☮️
She appears sincere but woefully uneducated.
I love the courage and wisdom of the new generations👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These young people are finally realizing the lies they have been fed to .
In 1834 (before political Zionsm was created) Arabs attacked the Jewish community of Safed. The 1834 looting of Safed was a prolonged attack against the Jewish community of Safed, Ottoman Empire, during the 1834 Peasants' Revolt.

IT'S NOT ABOUT ZIONISM, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE LAND, IT'S PURE HATE.
@@mikehunter7015There were/are hateful arabs( and unfortunately muslims as well) and i dont think any sane person would deny that but zionism is not an ethnicity, it is an ideology in which hate is rooted in its core. There are good arabs, bad arabs and everything in between but tbh i havent encountered a single Zionist whos empathy would not work purely selective, if they even had some. Self-centered,arrogant, superficial and immodest is what they all seem to have in common, no matter their true origins and i have talked to many the past years. That may sound like a prejudice but from an empirical point of view i dont really have a reason to believe otherwise until today.
Not just JEWISH, but BASIC HUMAN values!
Amen girl...we are all complicit when we ignore the destruction of a people.
Thank you to speak truth
The Jews have lived on that land for almost 4,000 years ..
@@Pamledger478
Palestinians have lived on that land for 10000 years.
You loose.
Thank you for fighting for Justice in Palestine.
"...the horrors that are committed against the Palestinian" She said, gasping...
This young woman is a wonderful expression of Jewish values.
You are very brave young lady for telling the truth, well done
As a Christian I agree with you, a state can be wrong, that does not mean a people are wrong
REAL Jewish values. Beautifully put.
As a Tunisian muslim i have so much respect for people like you simone, and i think that Israel have the right to live in peace and also palastinian in a two state solution ❤
Thank you, it's the absolute truth
My respect to this jews lady.Thank you for your truthful words.✔️❤️
She has no DNA related to the Middle East or African continent they don't have any values morales these so called zionist Jews they are from EUROPE. If you keep calling some enough then it will like everyone else will will believe it , until you find out the facts
No good human, Jewish or other could be silent over the deep suffering of others. "An eye for an eye makes the world go blind" Mahatma Gandhi
God bless you honorable young woman for telling the truth.
Thank you, Simone! You are a true Jew! God bless you, all your family, and all your colleagues in this struggle. Praise God!
Free Palestine
And there are young Muslims that are not fighting for palestine including hamas's leader's own son!!!!!
Thank you Sis for standing for Palestinians. Love from India
But Allah never calls the land Palestine
@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388 Do you believe in Allah
@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388you re missing the point
@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388why would we need to bring Allah in this? Or any other gods? 😅 Even godless people can see what the Zionists are doing is bas.
@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388Then what land was it called in the Qur'an?
People with heart will always speak out against violence! So respect to this young lady! Free Palestine 🇵🇸
As Muslims or human beings we love Jewish people❤️ It's not about Jewish it's about land and freedom and value of life of Palestinian 🇵🇸
Palestinians lives matter 🇵🇸🇧🇩 free Palestine 🇵🇸
Listening to these kinds of gentle voices gives me hope that the world is not totally doomed. 🙏🙏🙏
The gentleness of unperturbed and unperturbing uncompromising of a rod of steel. Calls to mind Psalm 21's "I will fear no evil, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me".
Respect to all the Jewish people who are standing up against this genocide and showing what their religion is all about. Thank you 🙏
There is hope for the world , thanks to the young generation
We are not Anti Jewish. How can we when she is saying all the right thing....
Yes you are anti jewish. Hatred against Jews is in your religion.
True Jewish is very different from Zionists.
Yes I also question my upbringing also being raised here in the US! We feel so betrayed and empty from these lying politicians! I just can’t comprehend what is going on in the world and they simply don’t care! I am so proud of the college students you are so courageous and inspiring! May God make it easy for you and protect you all!
Bless this beautiful Jewish woman. I am a non jew but i have nothing but respect for her intelligence and profound sense of humanity ❤
Well said!
Your opinion and values are greatly appreciated. I hope that many young smart people like you understand how genocide is not acceptable by any human being, and the idea of Zionism is diminishing among the young Jewish people.
Exactly. She is speaking of moral principles, deeply spiritual values...not only for her as Jewish values, but I also for my Catholic, not Christian, values...as do all regardless of faith...it is seeing the Truth, it is demanding Justice.
Well done girl. Standing up for truth and honesty is a difficult path to follow in this age of lies and dishonesty
These youngsters are the future
Thank you for your support of the Pakestinian people and all people who are treated in this way
Respect
She is right, and being so true, it should be really disarming to those who feel bent on continuing the injustices being perpetrated in Gaza.
Love Simone so much! Always happy to see her speak. She gives me so much hope in humanity. Such a beautiful soul
1. It's because it's 100% contrary to everything taught in the Torah to massacre people they r not the enemy. 2nd. It's the morally right thing to do. 3. As a granddaughter of holocaust survivors I am honoring their memory but trying to stop it from happening again. 4. The Palestinians r cousins with the Jews in fact Palestinians on dna test as canaanite blood south levant Mizrahi Jewish blood. So many of their ancestors were Jews at one point and a lot of rabbis theorize that they r the descendants of the ancient Israelites even though they changed religions. There r so so so many facets to it. As a jew ethnically I don't want mass murder representing me.
🙏 ❤
More power to young unbiased Jewish minds. Unbiased, compassionate , religious jews have been labelled as 'ultra orthodox ' to downplay their wisdom, compassion , religiosity and their voice against genocide and supression and stealing of land .
Brain washed
Yep, and those glasses don't make her look any smarter neither!!😅😅😅@rustywilliams1729
Total respect for this young woman. Human empathy. Calm, measured, factual rhetoric. Unlike the actions & intentions of the Israeli Government's horrific destruction of the Palestinians.
Respect to all the real Jews standing up for Palestine 🇵🇸 especially the youth
Very Well Said! Sis
Lovely, God Bless you sister
A note from a young Palestinian man to his Mother.
“I’m in love”
But she’s Jewish son
“Yes and She’s has a beautiful soul “
What a wonderfully educated woman..thankyou ❤
Thats a child with no education who thinks the holocaust and Israel Palestine war are similar, nazis went looking for jews to kill.....Isreal retaliated against Palestine and hamas terrorism
Beautiful Woman. Beautiful Person. In Every Way.
As a Buddhist I have great respect for this wonderful girl?
Simone Zimmerman is an inspiration. She represents Jewish values.
Thank you. You are our hope for a better world
She is a real Jew ❤❤❤
After listening to this young lady,it has given me hope that all jews are not the same mindset.
Looks at the way a young person is talking I feel good about it
All these people who is protesting making noise should stop
SO Well Said 👏👏👏 ,
Wise (young) woman ,

Hats off to you Simone Zimmernan... you are a brave woman believing in fairness
Thanks for standing by humanity!

@@Robbie-tt6oc she did not mention 1948 massacre ( and thr other massacres after it) and palestinian hostages either. Your point? Oh wait u guys dont have a point its all just victim playing.
