The outrage that we expect from every moral and respectable person to the situation. Well done and said.

Unfortunately, we do not see a Politician like him in France. Bravo for standing with justice.

An honest man sick to his stomach with Israeli persecution of Palestinians for many decades. Our thanks to this brave outspoken humanitarian.

Yes sir, we need more people like you 🤲🏻❤️🤲🏻

I'm "only" half Italian but Alessandro di Battista makes my heart swell with pride 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹. Finally a European politician who is not intimidated by the likes of a "von der Lying", Netanyahu and his gang or the US!! I'm so happy to see that there are still decent people in politics. Grazie mille, caro Alessandro 😍

Great respect to the politicians of Ireland, Scotland, Spain and Italy.
-they have the courage to tell it like it is.

[rotschimmel]

Not only he stands with Palestine, but he also stands with Julian Assange.
He always kept clear and net positions, by the right part of history.
A man like him makes me proud of my country.

You are a true human being.
I salute you ❤

I am half italian, Di Battista is no longer a Politician and hasn't been for years. He is now a journalist/writer. He gave up politics because he is a coherent and an honest human being full of courage and reason. No politician in italy has the courage to say what he said in this occasion nor other terrible situations in the past. It's a great shame he is no longer a politician as we need people like him to represent us. You should read up on him and understand why honesty has no place in politics in Italy. Thanks Alessandro for giving us all a voice and for not being a puppet of the powerful people that control the media in Italy!!

Kudos to this guy he's not only supporting Palestine's rights to exist but also he's protecting the kernel of Democracy! He should be presiding over Italy!

[Kdr]

Alessandro is been always pro-Palestinian. I visited Palestine. Well done and thank you ❤

[Freedom-First-]

What a brave man. Thank You for speaking out.

[kinganarkzie]

I understand his anger, it's not just the helplessness of watching a genocide slowly play out in front of you but seeing your government standing in solidarity with the people doing it.

[smrMak]

You can tell the pain inside his heart watching the atrocity’s destruction. Imagine the pain and suffering of the people who are in Gaza right now

Alessandro Di Battista is a decent person. Great speech and courage. All true.
