10:35 am
i'm just talking about the difference in power, which is something we do all the time. i mean, think about policing. if a man has a knife, should the cops shoot him in many parts around the world, like in the u. k. they say, well, we're gonna do everything we can to try not shoot the person even at risk to ourselves. because at the end of the day, they bought a knife to a gun fight. when you have this much power, what is your responsibility? ah, all right, let's bring in our guests in occupied east jerusalem. maria my, fifi a palestinian activist who was arrested by israeli soldiers during the shift to wrap protests. in brooklyn, mariah kaplan spokesperson for, if not now, a movement of american jews working to end american jewish support for the occupation and in gaza. national showa, a humanitarian worker, a warm welcome to you all. but i am, let me start with you today. there is
10:36 am
a video showing you as you are being arrested by israeli security forces that went viral. i want to play a few seconds of that for our viewers, and then i'll come back to you with a question. what did i think? that's why i'm sending them later in the video. we also see you looking at the camera and smiling defiantly as you're being detained. so i want to ask you 1st, what was going through your mind while all this was happening. and also did you expect this to get the kind of reaction that it has? hello, a 1st of all, i didn't expect expect this to get to the attention that it got. i didn't know that less than the 1st place. so basically what was going in my mind is that i was so angry. i was so angry because what's happening is that ralph is a,
10:37 am
is exactly what's happening in jerusalem and it's exactly what's, what's happens in palestine in general and what's happened in palestine in 1948. i was so angry because it's still happening until today. i was questioning him like, why do you do this? why, why should we sit and go through this for more than 70 years now? so what about since 1948, palestinian a palestinians out, and palestine is under an ongoing do shaping of the land and it hasn't stopped yet . it has him still stopped until today and it's one stop in there is still an occupation. so even if we were in the ship, the records w patient, one stop in its attempts, and it's in and in its occupation. mostly when you see this kind of activism from a younger generation of palestinian activists, that emerging right now is getting so much attention in the media and on social
10:38 am
media platforms. when you see the videos like the one that we just showed, a few seconds of showing muddy m smiling as she is being arrested, very defiantly. what does that make you think? does that make you feel more hopeful for the future? well 1st of all, i'm trying to be on the show and was money on monday. and of course with this video and with similar activism, it's can but bring hope again for the longest period. i think we have lost we have, we have been thinking for the one that we are talking to our son. we are complaining to our son. we are shouting and screaming and saying no, the counsel on for the longest as if we are fucking to, to, along and having, having the generation with this such, such an amazing example. if it shows that this is a,
10:39 am
this is that's true of this is when the through has to, it has to be disease. if it can save for ever generation after generation will not a thing, you know, what happened before. it doesn't, it doesn't work like this. i'm finding the, the world needs to know that needs to see it. and for me as the palestinian living in god to see it's so it's a so valuable thing back for sure. so i want to take a moment, take a step back and look at something that happened at the congress in the us. there were progressive democratic members of u. s. congress on thursday and they were responding to the ongoing conflict with some questioning of the us government's unconditional support of israel is taking this. we must, with no hesitation, demand that our country recognize the unconditional support of israel has enabled
10:40 am
the ratio of palestinian life and the denial of the rights of millions of refugees . let me be clear, every single day in this conflict is the tragedy. every rocket and bomb that target civilians is a war crime mariah when you see what happened in congress when you hear progressive voices who are drawing parallels between the plight of the palestinians and the injustices faced by black americans. they're also comparing israel's posture with apartheid era. south africa. what does that make you think does, do you feel as though in some ways public sentiment is shifting just the fact that we are hearing rhetoric from people in congress that we wouldn't really have heard just a few years back? absolutely. i think there is a huge shift under way and i think, you know, seeing i represent played on the house floor, you know,
10:41 am
telling the stories of palestinians and of her family. and these are the voices and stories that have been so systematically excluded and hidden from us. and, and i think our politics are really being transformed by having a policy in american women in congress the 1st time. and, and, you know, and i think as you said, this sort of national and international reckoning that we're having about race and justice and, and, and, you know, i think we can young jewish people, you know, we're being sort of asked to apply that logic. and, you know, to, to, you know, we understand and, and we're, we're learning about the experiences of black americans in this country. and then we're being asked to not apply that logic in palestine. and that's just something that you know, we're not going to do anymore than that. so many people are not willing to ignore any more money. and whenever i've reported out of occupied east jerusalem or the
10:42 am
occupied west bank or garza in the past time and again, i encounter palestinians who tell me how frustrated they are with palestinian political leadership and how ineffective palestinian politicians have been. let me ask you, did you set out to be an activist? i mean, i see that you are a cellist with the palestine youth orchestra. but, you know, is this really the only course forward to see any kind of change? ah, 1st of all, i may contrib assist? nothing said miss my apologies for that. no, it's fine. ah, basically we don't have any one to the present us. oh, as tennessee finance there, is there any propaganda and the is there any music media is really powerful. nobody would tell the stories of us palestinians on
10:43 am
a us palestinians living in israel or in new jersey. and them, for example, or what's happening in children are, is, is just an ongoing thing that happens every day injures and, and the israeli menaced ministry of interior sets. it's demography gone. for jerusalem at 70 percent. is there 80? this means getting the growing number of palestinians to move out of the city. since 1967 until today, hundreds of thousands of palestinians were displayed, displaced by heart, by ways of house demolished since discriminatory policies and other different or different ways. so so, so basically from the beginning, the occupation implemented colonial policies of displacement, land confiscation, and other ways. and, but despite, despite all the difficulties, me as palestinians from to jerusalem, go through to get us out of here. most palestinians choose to stay and stand up for
10:44 am
the night and dignity and future nozzler earlier today, i saw that you tweeted, i'm very lucky. i could sleep for 3 continuous hours, north and east garza experience how last night. i want to ask you, what is the situation there like right now? i must give her that explosion. i am. the situation has been extremely times we have experienced 2014 and whatever it was before. and i don't know trying to describe that to anyone. it's hard to put that and maybe in a 2nd and some of the way you are talking about a continuous bombardment. when you see of ways continuous drawn fire by to adjust the navy time selling that started the nice and contributed to the hadn't that's. i was
10:45 am
defending to specially in the areas of the north of garza city and the north of the gulf. the strip which i mean all my friends and the people i know about. i know of and i'm communicating with we were just through the nice trying to check on them and what broke and what didn't break and what does being destroyed and who is keeping their home and all that. i see the panic that people was telling me that seeing from their own windows, people leaving their homes and evacuating running away fleeing the bombing. that all that stuff also kept on spending it on the internet and among people along the noise of this one by me and this heavy around the place was that is that's to me bending is then the groups are getting in
10:46 am
while it and the was was denied and nothing happened. now, the misery of this is that it's happened before. and each time it happens with a certain level of intensity, i even talked of a sentence. i don't know if to make sense. but award doesn't have a limit, it has to nashville and it's time that is a certain threshold that gets moved. it's flexible, you know, and it keeps on going off and off. so whenever somebody call me and tell me, how are you doing? i'm, i'm fine because i know that there is always work and there is always the worst situation. and however, the speech of things can go much, much worse. and the more people you know was affected and left their homes, a lot evacuated now sitting out of nowhere,
10:47 am
and just random public place order order, food, or the genitive. i know many of those. unfortunately, they have no idea what's going to happen next. however, this time these, these, these very difficult hours, what is important is that we keep ourselves saying meant anything within the house, me and my, my 2 daughters and my husband, that's what, that's our goal because this is such a such the biggest difference mariah the stated mission of your organization is trying to build a movement of jews to in the israeli occupation. what steps need to be taken in order for that to happen? well, i'll say our mission is actually to end. well, any occupation is a worthwhile mission. ours, our goals are more humble and that we're trying to end our community support for the occupation and really end the orthodoxy in our community that says that jewish
10:48 am
safety is rely on palestinian suffering. and we see that as an important step given how often jewish safety are cited as the reason for our government complicity in the occupation and up and upholding systems of apartheid and israel. and so, you know, we are building on decades of jewish progressive organizing and talking and organizing on this issue and are really trying to do our part about our community can be on the right side of this issue. let me ask you, is palestinian leadership? hearing these demands for change? oh, basically nobody. i don't think is anybody hitting it like from the leadership or it's organization or organizations or human like human rights organizations? like i think what we're doing is very into individuals in it like it's done by
10:49 am
individuals. so basically the ones who started the movement and started showing the world what, what you're doing and what's happening, injury someone, what's happening and sure enough people from the neighborhood of just started off when i could well, how much and could they use the on with the weapon that we have a tendency in social media. we use that as a way for us to express our son to reach the humans around the world to reach the 3 humans around the world. and tell you this, what parent is they are trying to take us to take it away from us. so course the accounts that we, that we it or that talk about palestine and death, tell our stories. i have been deleted. so basically no one presents a search from man, government organizations. what we do is on me individually stake and get we do it's
10:50 am
by our lead on. let me ask you a follow up questions, you know, because a, so much of this is being shared so widely. you have a lot of people who don't typically engage in politics and they are widely sharing info, graphics and videos that are expressing solidarity with the palestinians. what i'm curious about is do you believe that this type of activism, some people call it hash tag activism, but you believe that this type of activism, you know, on the social media platforms is actually leading to a deeper kind of engagement on the issues awe before before this time, before or what's happening today. the ok before, like in 2009 houses in, in children rough where displaced settlers took these houses out until today they are still living in these houses before the news would talk about what's happening
10:51 am
in ships around. but they soon could make it because nobody knew about it during my protest in ships. and now i met a girl from another 15 palestine and i told her, i hope this what happened in 2000 night, which we didn't once happen again. and she didn't know what happened in 2009, because the newest didn't reach her because it is really media is really powerful. propaganda is really powerful. our news, our stories couldn't reach anyone in the world today all in use our sounds. our shouts are reaching many people around the world because we are the producers of our story. we produce the story, we take the photos we took, take the footage, we take these stories and share them to the world. and this is why they started fighting against over. so it is and fighting against our posts. i do believe that
10:52 am
because we could share our stories very widely and share our voice is very wide needs. i do have hope that that we will win the case in. she said no, but winning the kids and she laughed and me and when ending the occupation because what's happening and that isn't the only happening in just that it's happening and the rest of the occupied territories and the rest of the study of palestine or i saw you nodding along to a lot of wood muddy i'm was saying there. so i wanted to see if you had a reaction you want to add. and i, i also want to get from your perspective, your reaction. i mean, do you believe that this kind of activism that we're seeing playing out, you know, in so many social media platforms right now is actually going to lead to a deeper engagement when it comes to discussing these issues? well, just start, i mean, i think, well, mary was saying about, you know, it's right now focuses on shift. but welding the crisis and shift drive is not going to end the occupation or ancestors apartheid. and i think that's something
10:53 am
that we're trying really trying to lift up in our organizing around this. and i think so often and what's very frustrating is so often it's described as isolated in cases of violence or, you know, a conflict between 2 equal partners. and that's just not the case. and that is completely b. contextualize. and as both national and marian has said, it totally misses kind of the reality on the ground. and also the fact that you know, the tools that israel using are furnished by the united states. many of them by united states government, you know, our government gets $3800000000.00 of military aid israel every year. and so, you know, they're, those are us bomb than us fighter jets that are flattening whole buildings. and it's us, the magic backing that is trying to, you know, shields the, the settler enterprise settlement enterprise from any consequences. and so i think,
10:54 am
and i was like touch what marian said about, you know, that being the producer of your own story. and i do think that's really important again, because as i said, you know, similar to representative please sharing on the house floor. you know, these stories of how many and what palestinians have experienced at the hands of the israeli violence. and this campaign to expand jewish supremacy that has been ongoing for decades and, and that americans have to listen to those stories. and so i think it's really important that people are seeing that i think social media has made that much more accessible. and i think that's important as well. if i may, i'd like to ask you a little bit more of a personal question. you know, one of the more horrify aspects of all this is the fact that children are
10:55 am
continuing to die as an aide worker. as a humanitarian worker, as a mother. how does that make you feel to continue seeing that play out in god? well, of course, if we live here all our lives, i'm the mother. maybe i will pick one for my, my own 6 and a half and 2014 was i was pregnant with her the 30, maybe start and then it should be then. and then now with this new chapter where she understands and asks very difficult, although they in a sense, the very difficult question. and how can i protect her physically? yeah, that there's something of course that there's a limit to what we can do. however, how can i protect her brain or health wellbeing her how, how she is raised as
10:56 am
a human and above all bus somebody who understand also what's wrong and what is right and what is just what it's just that her, her parents had granted and lived and so on and so on. the problem is how the challenge that i see. how can i give her whole, now all the only days, couple of days despite how challenging horrifying there are. and what fears i personally have now and today of what may come next, how tonight will be on or laurel for them with them or beyond the coming weeks. what is that is that you can do as a parents that you can to keep them saying to me and also teach them the problem. why? why is this to me?
10:57 am
i'm, you know, with these 2 days as a, as i mentioned, that the amount of engagement i down the world. it seems a bit different to me. seems a bit different that not the only, the, the kind of quick support you know, sending messages. hope you're all right. stay safe. where on the side it's, it's not steve on this. what is more important is what's happening in palestine or all of it, and around it, even leaking joy, then, or lebanon. what we're seeing today in this is like, everyone is awake, that this is wrong, and it should stop. so i, i have some hope, however, i know i'm also realistic, that this kid, this reality will not change in a day or in a 2nd. however, i hope that my daughter's when to have a chance to, to love to live more, less kind of traumatized experienced and,
10:58 am
