we are learning and we are um gaining closeness to god through our good action and through learning from the stories of the past, this resilience makes sense when you are so firmly rooted in your ancestral history, but also when you are rooted in faith and in the trust of god's promise. all right, and and finally, the israeli regimes use of misinformation, manipulation and all kinds of ways uh as is powerful weapon to um win, the the war of of hearts and minds, the win or to shape public opinion in its own favor, but that has been exposed and not on one occasion. you know, and you when you look at the previous three stories and you see the resilience of the palestinian people, you see the truth behind the genocide, the the destruction, the death, the famin, the, the the inhuman conditions, of course, it makes complete sense that israel has to do

something drastic to be able to combat all the um negative press that they are getting because of what we're seeing of their war crimes, but also to make them seem more human than the ghazans who are the absolute you know uh atotom of of humankind, the um you know the the the examples, the heroes of humanity, epitomy, thank you, that's what i was looking for um let's have... how desperate they are becoming um in trying to turn, as you said public opinion in their favorite page has been lifting photos from pro- palestinian creators and reediting them to fabricate increased support for israel, apparently i stand with israel, and it's not just me, the real yaz also has apparently been supporting israel without her knowledge. israeli groups have long been accused of...

pulating information and controlling the narrative through digital and pr campaigns in attempt to white wash their war crimes, but this time their campaign youtube out, you see lot of the that kind of stuff on on youtube, but you know it makes the question, what kind of a world it would have been if we didn't have people like that exposing these untruths and these attempts at manipulating public opinion, absolutely, it's i yes, it it really of does speak to the um weakening of the entity um and how they have to resort to such measures to kind of get just sliver of public support back in their favor. all right, latifa, thanks again. latifa will be back with more tomorrow. now, britain has seen a rise in islamophobia since october 7th, and this has affected both individuals as well as institution. earlier we spoke to raghad, the

chair of the muslim association of britain. we began by asking her how that issue was being tackled. with each attack on gaza, we see that islamophobia rises unfortunately on the streets of the uk and in europe in general, and yes our, i mean, we're against in all kinds of racism, but unfortunately, as we stand against. antisemitism, racism, islamophobia should be emphasized as well, and what we find is sometimes it's um, the voices are lower in in highlighting the problem of islamophobia, and we've seen many incidents of individuals being targeted, and the problem is, muslims are reluctant, sometimes, especially women, are reluctant, reluctant and reporting to police out of the belief that what is going to happen anyway, but it's very important. for everyone to

report those incidents, so it is recorded that there is a rise in islamophobia, there are even threats against organizations and muslims and speakers who speak for the for the rights of palestinians for example, we've seen people carrying simple flags and being attacked, latest is the muslim schools who received letters of threats and that was reported to the police, of course the mp absana. begam as well, she received death threats and she had to be on the titan security even when she comes and she speaks on our marches, she has to have some kind of of security around her, all of these shows that during these times unfortunately um it becomes you know muslims especially visible women especially or visible men with maybe a beards, cool fears or whatever whatever marks them as muslims, unfortunately they become

easy target for those who want to attack, so yes definitely there is increase in islamophobia, and we all are always in communication with the police, reporting and asking them to provide. security for those who are especially organizations and schools and misal who is also member of the advisory committee to the european forum of muslim women stressed that the support for palestine wasn't just a muslim issue and diluting the freedom from occupation to interfath dialogue isn't the way forward. if it was the the jewish community or jews under attack or under occupation we would stand by the oppressed we see. as an oppressor against oppressed, an occupier against the occupied, and it has nothing to do with faith, and that is why when you say muslims are only concerned, let me assure you that when we march, the majority of those who march are non-muslims, and it might be awkward or strange, why? because it is an obvious

injustice for those who read deeper into the narrative and and break through the the facade of what they have been presenting us through media and propaganda. constantly people are starting to understand that it is not like what they have been fed and they're searching for themselves, so i truly don't think that for those who understand and they don't have blind loyalties, it is very clear to them who where the justice, who's infringing on justice, who is the oppressed, right? so so as a faith, i'm assuring you we had in one of the marches a jewish block, which means a large section of the... march was for our jewish uh friends, this is beyond religion, this is not about whose faith, remember amongst palestinians who are dying are christians as well, there's christian palestinians there, there's churches that has been destructed and destroyed, so this is not

about faith, this is about standing by the people who have been occupied and who have been through um war after war since 1948, not from october, so it's... very important for us to not let those things affect the the interfaith relationships and we are in continuous talks. of course i can tell you that there are some fronts of interface um platforms that are created through times like these that we have to be careful of because i am ready to respect to have a dialogue to talk to anyone from any different faith or none, but you don't wish wash the human rights and it doesn't become a front to... to ignore the human rights of palestinians, you're watching gaza under attack with me, saiza and my guests, angelica gale and batul sebedi. batul, um, and angelica as well, thanks for waiting patiently, we've all seen

or been to the palestine solidarity rallies, similar ones have been held around the world, which brought out unprecedented numbers up to... 100 thous people here in london, how would you explain that that rise in such support? absolutely. gaza has ultimately turned into a global issue. um, it has returned the palestinian issue into the most, i would argue globally important and influential issue on any government interests any part of the world, because what khazza has done is it unveiled the mask over the true face of capitalism, the lack of morals. and showing that even the support of the west for aggression is contained and comes within certain limits, what means by that is that it actually in effect can be pressured um in order to uh reduce this uh level of aggression um because why the world is unable

to contain all of this aggression um it's unable to contain the trespassing of all of humanity's measurements and dimensions otherwise to watch this happen is conceeding to a jungle world the world. cannot stand in the face of this level of aggression, so as far as the west is concerned, what this international pressure will do is it will force them to consider the future of the region within the influence of the liability that is the occupation entity that is actually jeopadizing its wider interests, so what happens when for example you have uh yemen that is blocking shipments through balbel rate for example or you have within iraq the targeting of american bases for example. "that echoes the sentiments of the people of yemen, if you just look at the marches and the protests that are happening in in yemen with millions, not even one million, ask you about that too, if you can briefly uh, i understand that you've been to areas very close to where the israely

bombardment is is taking place, um, tell us about the mood among the publics to places you have been in the region, what people, how people are feeling about all of this, right?" right, um, so there is a real sense, i would argue of certainty that liberation is a reality, uh, that it will be achieved, um, there are definitely heightened energies, you know, just yesterday, i'm currently in. baghdad just yesterday i was speaking to local um who said we're ready to go to the borders um if not the obstacle of certain countries for example you know people's patience in the active sense and steadfastness um is greater than the liberation itself the people of lebanon for example that i was in uh last week in the south you know some of them were on the streets and they were asking the leader of the resistance of lebanon to enter into a literal full-fledged war knowing full well the price for this is leveling. their areas to the ground, you it's leveling the south of lebanon, it's leveling the d the ground, but

all of this doesn't take away how they truly feel, they are expressing their real sentiments and that is we are willing sacrifice our lives for the sake of this cause, because this is the cause of truth and justice and it's so great in magnitude that it's worth giving all the blood in its pursuit. it it sure is. let me uh bring angelica in uh, i got two short questions for you, one is so we heard about to... was very good description of the ground sol of support for the palestinians and their uh fight for liberation, and you've been to some of those protests, but there were attempts made by the government here to delegitimize that kind of support, to stop people from going out under the streets by allegging antisemitism uh, in in rallies and protests were by and large peaceful. um, what is your view on that? i think anti-semitism... "at the beginning, i myself was incredibly fearful that my um my views were being taken as antisemitism to the

point where i did and i do use social media quite often to try and um put my view on the situation and try and raise awareness of the situation as much as possible. at the beginning i did begin to sort of realize that my views and opinions could be taken as antisemitism to the point where i did have to make statements saying that attacking juice for what's happening in palestine is wrong and it's not going to help the situation in any state or form. um, but again, i, i, i brought into that, i brought into the government making those suggestions that to go to rally was hate march, um, for for an extended period of time, and then over time now that that conversation has sort of dissipated surrounding anti-semitism, i've now come to realize that at the beginning it was just deterrant, and it was just trying to stop people from joining these marches and becoming educated in what's going on and what's going on with the zionist movement, um, and it was deliberate attempt on the part the government, yes definitely, it was to keep people in their homes. and i think so, but let me let me also take you to the the next question, which is what we have seen and

it's mentioned all the time is the number of young people who have turned out on at every one of these protests as a younger person, you know your voices have been way louder this time around than at least they usually are in these cases sadly, yeah what what made has that difference has that made and and what do you think is the reason behind it all? well think i think fundamentally just... rejecting a conservative government in any way shape or form um is something that young people have tendency to do because they don't agree with their other policies and this is very much one of them. the stance of the ty government in a lot of cases has always been on the wrong side of what young people think um and this is no different. um i think top of that the use of social media um for once i think has been a useful tool in trying to find out what's happening in palestine because you can't go onto twitter you can't go into facebook you can't go into instagram with at least seeing one very graphic video. of a child without limbs with third degree burns in very horrific circumstances of of

which is happening and you can't help but question why these circumstances are happening and you know you fall down a whole of you know learning about the zinius movement and then the bowful decoration and it all just seems to piece up together and social media is very accessible platform for everybody to go to, it's not hard, it's not difficult to find this information and i can't help but think of those people suffering back you know during the first in a club and then the first interf and the second one yeah. um, i can't help but think of those people and how oppressed that they were, nobody was listening, nobody was knowing their oppression, because they a lot of people in the world didn't have access to that, everybody was listening to the same platform and the same news outlet, nowadays, there's thousands, millions of outlets that you can be connected to um and decide where your information is coming from, and for me personally um, i know that the side of information that's coming towards me is is the oppression of palestinians and that's what i'm engaging in, alternative sources, all right, okay, is back with her second batch of stories on the media coverage of the gazan genocide, part of what we just heard,

um, fahima, you know, uh, there is a reason they called gaza an open air prison, and um, reason after reason why that that led up to october, october 7th, but what do you have for us in this segment? well, we seeing the unravel uh of you know, um, people, and now governments that are calling for... cease fire and very alarmed, but also the recent events of um three hostages that were murdered by the israeli militants, so that caused a big stur and also..." tests in israel itself and we'll see the video to show the upraw and the upset and the anger towards the actual government and they are now also calling for a cease fire and there isn't anything to show that there is um any of the militants or resistance that are actually being captured as the israelis want, but at

the same time it's now they're targeting their own people and killing their own, so the anger and the upr. is just continuous and it's from every angle you can possibly think of, but again um let's see how this unfolds over the next few days and weeks, so far those calls have callen have fallen on deaf ears and finally emits all of this, female air royal member air dropping supplies into the yeah, the next post we'll see jordan's uh princess selma take part in the airdrop of supplies to razzafield hospitals and they have actually um she's 23 years old and she's the first lieutenant in the royal jordanian air force which is a really um great to see that we have you know people of that caliber you know still taking part and participating as we've seen last week, even nurses and medical uh staff uh volunteering from the uae trying to go in and help you know sort of

like people in the hospitals to alleviate some of the distress and the tragic sort of circumstances. that the current medics are facing as well, so this is um something that you know we will sort of hopefully continue to see that there is going to be more um aid and more people trying to go into help regardless of how difficult it is, it's still required and needed. okay thank you, thank you, we'll hear more from you tomorrow. all right, moving on now to um the rest of the discussion for this hour and i'll begin with batol in baghdad. um, you you mentioned people wanting the resistance in in lebanon to to do more, if i heard you correctly, uh, there has been a lot of criticism of the different arab governments in in the region for having for not having done enough, uh, let's put it that way, what did you hear as

far as that is concerned in the areas that you traveled from the people? right, um, they use uh... the common phrase of you know alamala, so they are collaborators or this idea that they're effectively traits, and of course this has everything to do with the political reality of those arab countries being holy hostage to american interests, so for example um, yesterday we read on the news how um america wants to form this kind of red tea protection alliance with some of the arab countries in the region, especially the gulf countries, in order to curb the uh effort. of yemen to uh essentially um attack those ships that are heading towards the israeli occupation entity which has proven to be very very effective force in uh really forcing them to deescalate and and and forcing them to put a cease fire on the table and to enact it um so the people of the region understand this dynamic that we are talking about

countries that have effectively israelized i use the term israelization to describe the abraham accord um that was essentially um broken by america in order to get some arab countries to normalize with the israeli occupation entity in order to serve america's interests of creating quote stability in the region um as america was withdrawing so that um they can serve its interest and so that they can turn this idea of resistance into a point of view that was the whole point of the abraham accords to say to the people of lebanon is to say to the people of iraq for example um but specifically also to the people of iran that "you are facing economic warfare, sies and sanctions, because you dare rise up in the face of american higem and not allow the american project to reign in your country essentially, um, and so you are paying the price, and the way that you're paying the price is that there is inflation, is that you are suffering is that there is mass unemployment, so why don't you become like those, for example countries in the persian gulf that are deciding to normalize, have stable economies and so actually the uh

best solution for you guys is not actually to resist, that is the whole american strategy, and but of course the..." reason that um these the reason that these countries are steadfast and our resistant is because of the people, when we think of iran, it's because the people when we think about lebanon, it's because the people actually support the resistance, the base of the resistance is the people themselves. correct, all right, we're going to have to leave it there for now, um, those comments definitely bring this show to close. many thanks again to my guests for their contributions, gaza under attack, we'll be back tomorrow with more, until then, continue to keep palestine in your hearts and minds. goodbye.

so my name is nick, i'm from the united states and i'm supporting palestine because two years ago i went to palestine, my seven lived there, and i realized that i was lied to by the united states, i was lied to by liberal organization and with. liberal rights and liberal uh ideologies so we should be supporting the jews and we supporting you if you're not you're anti-semitic uh yet i go there and i see the racism from israelis to palestinians i see the the segregation i see the apartide i see everything first hand it blew my mind you go to hebron you go to janine and you see the the separation wall and it's just an obvious racist apartted regime and it's obviously ethnic cleansing has to do with hamas uh, it's all about just taking land, it's all about money, it's all about politics and i won't stand for it, and that's why i'm standing here today in this march, give a overview of the history, is

israeli land, palestinian land, what happened, at the end of the day i can care less, you know, because you can't kill gazins, you can't just indiscriminately kill people, to try to argue which one is which, you don't kill people, that's a simple is it right, you don't need to justify one or the other uh, but historically you know this land has been palestinian um, i'm i'm sorry to say the israelis were removed in you know whatever year and how many years do you want to go back uh should i go capture my german heritage because 1500s i was german do i go kick out people from germany and that's 1500 what about what was that a thousand years ago 3 thous years ago that's ridiculous mean when you look at their dna it's not even israeli the eastern europeans they're european people this is european colonialism uh and it's just it's it's a shame, it's absolute shambles, so we have to stand up for people that are dying, gazins are dying, they're just being indiscriminately bombed, we've seen this playbook before and we have to stop it, hey

everyone, "this is for all people around the world celebrating christmas like nothing is happening, calling for celebrations. do you hear this sounds? okay, this is bumping around us. jesus was palestinian and now palestinians are subjected to genicide, so imagine how would be your celebrations if jesus was alive and around us and subjected to genocide also as his people. do you hear the impulances? the unarmed plans over - the bombings okay, we're living all of this during this night, during the past nights and the upcoming nights, we are we have been killed, we are now subjected to killing and to bombings and will be killed also if no one moves, simply it's 69 days of bombing, displacement, starvation, being being under bombing and you're just calling for normal

peaceful life, full of eat. christmas suites and uh worm winter nights, if you're celebrating chrism for jesus then jesus was palestinian, if you are celebrating christmas for just celebrating christmas then you cannot be uh normal an upnormal world in a explosive world especially in over the palestinians and goson's uh lives so i don't know what are you celebrating but you should be ashamed, actually you should be ashamed, if you hear the unarmed plans over our heads, the zanan if you hear the bombings around us and still want to celebrate, then yeah, you need to do something, you hear this? okay, merry christmas.

your press to be headlines death all from israel's relentless aeral and artillery strikes on the gaza strip is approaching 20,000, mostly women and children. palestiny resistance fighters fire a barrage of rockets deep into israel with reports pointing town of explosions in tel aviv and surrounding areas and a senior hamasa official tells press tv that israel has had no significant battlefield achievements in gaza so far and can by no means wipe out the resistance movement.
