As an Australian I can say that after living and working in the West Bank, that Palestinians are the most courageous, resilient, warm, hospitable, funny and kind. They will prevail

[oliverqueen]

I am an American Christian and I feel deep sorrow for the evil unleashed on the Palestinians by Israel and the U.S.
Not all American Christians are Zionists

[PerceivedREALITY]

Palestinians are very courageous. They're not afraid to fight for freedom and justice.

Richard as usual, great interview. The Levant is a beautiful place. And this reporter is spot on! Thank you for having this beautiful person on your show!

[PerceivedREALITY]

Saying Israel can defeat the resistance is like saying biden can run up the stairs without stumbling. 💪🇾🇪🤝🇮🇶🤝🇸🇾🤝🇱🇧🤝🇮🇷🤝🇵🇸

[PerceivedREALITY]

We must not be silent while witnessing injustice. Honor to Palestine! Honor to everyone who supports Palestine!

Ghandi is such a sweet soul, even in adversity she has such radiant smile.

[kelliephoenix]

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview! Thank you! As an American who already despised my entire government and media, I am now also awake to the truth about our ruthless past and the real Middle East that they never wanted us to know.
As a follower of Christ, when I'm watching and listening to the Palestinian people going through these horrors inflicted on them by Israel, I am reminded of Jesus. Bc even now, with the decades of atrocities done to them, they are still courageous, kind, generous and loving. Free Palestine! 😢🙏

[mannygutierrez]

This woman is PHENOMENAL. Phoenicians created writing, Syrians were the first Christians, gave it to the world, then westerners come back thousands of years later to teach them how to do it "right" 😅

I am a Muslim Palestinian Semite (95% native) from Bethlehem and I speak for all the Levant (Jordan, Palestine, Syria, and Lebanon) we want to be UNITED.
