Humanity stands with Spain and Ireland.
And South Africa
You do that....still won't change anything. Ask the 500,000 dead Ukrainians and the 650,000 syrians
I'm with you 💯. FJB
Im down with you too
Me too.
Israel is out of control. Amy was one of the first to call this out!!
I agree.
A devil 😈 as well
Hamas is wrong here
Amy and DN continue to fail to call out the real people responsible, the US government.
@@CattyWampus_OFG what's the matter can't say Israel is right anymore? Do you watch the news or only come for the sport of the comments section?
When Germany is calling for you to stop Genocide you've crossed a line

Germany, who is Germany.........
The Warmongers & War Profiteers are getting a run for their money. Lol.

Wow American government not voting is quite disgusting. They’ve annihilated any reason to ever respect them on human rights again.
Refuse our aid to your country then
Pretty please

@CattyWampus_OFG as an American, I'm going to do everything in my power to change America to a better country. You can leave or fight me, but you're part of the problem

It's too late there is no Palestine anymore, the zionist have won. Tell these university children to go back to school and study. Their efforts are admirable but too little too late.
Genocide Joe is a monster.

Hats off too Spain. The Spaniards have more courage and moral forthrightness than many other UE nations. Bravo. Thank you Amy and DN team. You have become my 1st. news network. Keep providing us with TRUTH.
Couldn't have said it better
For once after they Colonized every country in South America . They finally understand that colonization isn't the answer.
Does this include MSC vessels (Military Sealift’ heading for Rota, Spain?
@@user-ec8rn2bu5n You will have to explain yourself further to me. I know that Spain has band any vessels ( Israeli or other) carrying military equipment, weapons to Israel. These ships you are referring to, I don’t yet know about. I hope not. I’d appreciate having more info from you if you have it. Thank you.
@joannegrilli755
I'm guessing that average Israelis are feeling the economic pinch, now.
Their workforce has dwindled- no more cheap Palestinian Labor and their youth are fighting a loosing war.
Asked my dad if he wanted to watch Ted Lasso...he said "No, put on Democracy Now"
why does a channel called Democracy Now! support islamic dictatorships? Isreal is the only democracy in the region, yet you call the Houthis, Hezbollah, and Hamas the "axis of resistance", why do you stand for dictators and call yourself Democracy Now?
The hypocrisy of helping people bombed by your same weapons is unbelievable
Gotta get those poll numbers up somehow. Speaking with "forked tongue" has real meaning.
Couldn't agree more 😢

Our salute to the US university students
Don't forget about the Canadian ones Not covered as much, put they are doingvthe same.
Thank you Democracy Now for talking about Palestine and giving our people a voice. It means more to us than words can describe. The Israeli soldier that killed my aunt Huda Hawarjeh in Aida Bethlehem smiled on camera and said he was purifying the land. The CBC covered this on their website and I uploaded to my youtube channel the CBC report on it with the interview included.
My condolences. I'm saddened by your loss.

And America lost in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan. Pretty bad too.
The world needs independence from America: that's why China and India are expanding.
there's no excuse for the months long delay in getting aid to people in gaza. what a slap in the face to us all how there's no problems getting military "aid" to Israel at the same time.
PALESTINE MUST BE RECOGNIZED.
No thx, won't be anything left to recognize
Amy Good man should do the news naked.
Why? They terrorists!

CZcams/Google/Alphabet surpassed $2T market cap, so posting here is a good first step.
Restore the 1933-99 Glass-Steagall Act - which would freeze their $2 thousand trillion of gambled-up claims {internationally this time}. This would be the 1st step in a 1933-like Bankruptcy Reorganization, and then the establishment of a New Economic + Security Architecture for all nations !
As a former resident of Spain I salute its decision to recognise Palestinians as people and supporting the establishment of a Palestinian state. Bravo. 👏👏👏

Those who are denying the Palestinian Hollowcost and those who are insisting to carry on with a Palestinian Hollowcost

There are plenty that are doing the same and are facing backlash from police in canada too. I salute them as well, though I'm mortified by the cdn govt.

Look at the wealthy league Amy mentioned. They don’t care about the Palestinian plight nor any human suffering just their lucrative gains. What a shame…..pathetic……the world in 2024. Human kind has taken several giant steps backwards instead of forward.
Kissinger was a monster!
So many Americans died in Vietnam because he lied and kept his pockets filled with blood money!
My question is… when the ICJ is presented with the fact that the U.S. is complicate in the mass killing of civilians, what will the ramifications be?

God bless Gaza😢
say goodbye to "KIND" bars.....lol....not that they were edible in the first place.
Alito's senility and growing dementia should disqualify him from remaing on the court.
Just as long as he doesn't retire before Trump becomes President. Otherwise those Billionaires Amy outed will push for a Justice that will stifle her and censor free speech nation wide.
Doesn't stop Biden from being president with nuclear codes......
His wife did it (?).😊
Nadia Al-Debs is ABSOLUTELY CORRECT here -> 1:48
Why would we build a giant pier for "Aid" when we could force Israel to let the Aid in by Land?
Because America obeys Israel, sending them another billion dollars in weapons.

Man, Abbott really sucks wtf.
Nah, 100% self defense case
Racist Abbot wrong side of history .
Clip from a Substack article by Radley Balko: {edit for CZcams.}
-"Perry himself initially said Foster never pointed the r•fle at him. During his police interrogation, Perry said, “I believe he was going to aim at me. I didn’t want to give him a chance to aim at me.” If someone is holding a r•fle in your general vicinity, but not pointing it at you, you do not have legal cover to k••l them."_
The article notes that Perry could have easily detoured around the protest.
Instead he plowed into it, almost h•tting Garret Foster's fiancee.
Garrett's (now ex)-fiancee is a quadruple amputee, fyi.
Abbott pardoned Perry to appease his far-right base.
That base wants the ability to LEGALLY unalive protesters.
@@grmpEqweer Not to mention all the hateful, bigoted writings they found. He shouldn't have been pardoned let alone permitted to carry a firearm. Really disgusting what Abbot has done.😐
Thanks for the telling the truth, especially Gasa issues
Children don't start wars or fight in them they just end up loosing there lives for them.

Of course, the UK is going to continue its plan to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, irrespective of human rights concerns.

In Alito’s case, it was a political expression as a MAGA cult member.
I would like to see more news about building a global digital platform that can have conversations with millions of people at the same time, and merge the knowledge and sentiment into representations of the collective will of humanity.
dammit, Amy. Garrett Foster was a USAF veteran. if you’re not going to acknowledge his military service, then Perry should be referenced as an Uber driver without reference to his Army status-which included his superiors thinking he was too dangerous to deploy.

Is that evil so strong?
Free the hostages
Palestinians held by Isreal?
Held without representation and without reason in the vast majority of cases. Also, raping little boys in custody and torturing peoples.
the ones Israel murdered with the hannibal directive?
Israeli has had eight months to either RESCUE the hostages or negotiate their release. They're either thoroughly incompetent or entirely impotent.
the 8,100 to 10,000 held in izzy prisons without charge?
