Breaking news and analysis on day 1 of Gaza ceasefire | The Electronic Intifada Podcast

[@deannemiller103]

Abubaker and all Palestinians deserve every good things in this life. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

[@A-Yemeni-girl]

🇵🇸 Death fell in Gaza.. terror fell.. hunger fell.. war fell.. but Gaza did not fall. Praise and thanks be to God 🇵🇸.

[@abrambadal8997]

What becomes so obvious , as the sun rise and the sun set , that gods are absent in Palestine ! Unless you can just make belief and be so delusional , the only weakness of Palestinians is their poverty and weakness that they can transform and make it into strength , but ouhhhhhhhhh , at a terrible price ! If there is a god there it is a very cruel and pro--imperialist and pro---money , pro--rich and pro--corruption and pro--criminal and pro--genocide on this Planet , but so VISIBLE IN PALESTINE ! Dangerous make beliefs just prolong the INJUSTICE , so obvious in Palestine !

[@Johnathonswift]

I wonder if God heard the cries of tiny children dying slowly under the rubble terrified and alone, no, he didn't, God didn't help a single one of those 30 000 little children, wake up, stop believing in myths and legends.

[@AklimaKhatun-k1p]

​@@Johnathonswiftof course he heard, apartheid settlers have no future.

[@mrman-m9t]

Hello John, you keep your religion. We will keeo ours. ​@@Johnathonswift

[@Johnathonswift]

@@mrman-m9t you can keep it, I have supported the people of palistine and marched every week in support and to end the genocide, I live in an area in the uk with a lot of muslims and indeed my neighbours are muslim, I love them, but there has to be a point when you have to accept the fact he meaning god or Allah is not going to help, it's insane thanking him when he has done nothing.

[@Panelton]

Much love and solidarity to you and your family . Ireland stands with you all❤

[@ScottLaMere]

Thank all of you from The Electronic Intifada for your steadfastness, dedication, and teaching of the truth. ❤ Free 🇵🇸

[@thinkbeforeyoutype7106]

Exactly! The Chosen Deceivers was DEFEATED by the Chosen Believers. Palestine will be freed sooner or later. It’s inevitable

[@MalcolmMacPhail-mt1gt]

Thanks to Electronic Intifada, Abubaker is now appearing on Drop Site News, Democracy Now and other independent news outlets. Great to see him getting more exposure.

[@HirelSingha]

With Glen Greenwald too

[@Fungoul]

Those are all trash. The real read: All the Amerikkkan imperial vultures are rushing to frame themselves as "pro-Palestinian". This isn't a knock on Abubaker, and I'm not even saying he shouldn't appear (or that he should...I'd have to think about it more), but we have to separate baby and bathwater.

[@Dee-JayW]

Seeing the beautiful face of Abubaker made me burst into tears! Courage, bravery, resilience, there aren’t enough words to describe this beautiful human being. I ❤seeing his face, and smiling! Celebrating 🎉🎉🎉…. Lifted up my hopes….focusing on this one day has been so important 🎉🎉🎉🎉 we can’t imagine the feeling of freedom they must feel, knowing the struggles, agony and heartbreak to come. Thank you EI and the whole team, I’ve been with you for many, many years. 🇨🇦 ❤❤❤❤

[@Shelseeker]

We're celebrating with all of you! Please know there are Americans that love Palestinians and will continue to support them. Freedom now,Justice soon!

[@coyotaurbana]

Gaza lives! Gaza will forever live!🇵🇸❤️

[@markzeusmusic]

Nora is an awesome human being. Not dismissing the beauty of all y'all.

[@johnpullen3729]

Abubaker Abed, is probably one of the loveliest people i think we have all come across during the whole ordeal. Positive, intelligent and brave... I hope he achieve all his dreams and lifes goals... Thank you Abubaker Abed, You give me and im sure many, many others hope. Keep striving and smiling and i am sure you will go far...

[@tethergobrrr]

💯 I have no interest in football, but if he has the freedom to go back to sports reporting I will follow just to see him happy. He’s a delight. Thank you Abubaker.

[@goodluck5642]

An incredible spirit

[@annelliot622]

Abubaker is obviously a very special person, God bless him. But I will just add that there are so many special people of the Levant who just don't speak English as amazingly as Abubaker has somehow managed to do. Anyone who has lived there and understands Arabic can testify that they are a special people in general. This adds to the tragedy in a way.

[@ClippingWisdom]

@@tethergobrrrcouldn’t agree more. Following sports in the occupied territories seems like its own form of resistance

[@Clobberella-ro5rb]

I ​only speak very little Arabic (to my shame, as I've been married to an Arabic speaker for almost 20 years) but I am resolved to learn the language now. I've seen the most amazing people in Gaza and the region, most of whom didn't speak English, and who can only be seen on Arabic language KZbin. I'm lucky my husband could translate much of it. I watched as two completely different narratives emerged in the media after October 7. EI is the first and most significant (and still one of the only) media outlets giving the Palestinian perspective in English. We are indeed blessed to have Abubakr and EI to bring us English speakers into the truth. ❤🇵🇸

[@IcecreamChl]

Thanks to all the supporters of resistance and humanity .

[@karenhamel2796]

Much love to Abubaker. Grateful for the Palestinian resistance around the world. Liberation from the river to the sea. Thank you EI for your dedication to truth and sharing community.

[@snOOpster007]

Huge thanks to the EI team fir sterling coverage and support ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@seang2700]

No event in my lifetime, (including the fall of Nixon,) has more profoundly altered my view of the world. EI has been a huge part of my education. I'm deeply grateful. A victory over Zionism is a triumph for all humanity.

[@yan-amar]

So true

[@sdruding]

I had tears running down my face as I watched. 🇵🇸🇵🇸 EI is a treasure for all of us. 🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸❤️

[@boforce9096]

Indeed. It really is.

[@shamim621]

Me too,these guys are just so good.

[@tomhirschi1603]

Thank you Ali, for being so fierce in your defense of the truth, without losing your humanity!

[@karinverelst3781]

You all did an incredible job, keeping the world informed about the brutal reality of the Gazacide, of the courage and resilience of the Palestinian people, and of the tactical and strategic intelligence and endurance of the resistance. Thank you, truly.

[@dvoravithanovsky6902]

You four are the most incredible team. The FEARLESS FOUR. KUDOS

[@snOOpster007]

Total Goosebumps when Abubaker came in screen he’s alive he’s alive he’s alive xxxxxx may the kids hsve a good night’s rest 🙏🏻🧿❤️

[@dscaldwellohio]

Thank you ei for connecting us again to Abubaker Abed. He's the best of the best of humanity, and of resistance, compassion and solidarity with the Palestinians.

[@CarminaLopez-ic1ed]

Thank you Electronic Intifada for your extraordinary work and great sensitivity. My heart with Abubaker and all the Palestinians who have suffered infinitely. Support from Cartagena de Indias, Colombia

[@janicej3436]

How sick to tell people not to celebrate the return of their loved ones.

[@morcego3451]

É muito verdade, são Pessoas ou sociedade Doente psicologicamente. E já não tem cura pelo que se vê.. Quando pensamos que já vimos tudo.. É Quando o comportamento desta sociedade doentia nos choca com mais uma coisa nova.. estão Sem cura possível, é simplesmente maldade pura.. E dizem-se " que são as pessoas escolhidas.." talvez escolhidas para serem malvadas ao máximo!!.

[@neatznotso7424]

It's what they did last release as well. Israel thinks they can control every aspect of their lives with no repercussions. I really fucking hope that now the world has finally taken notice that what Palestinians have gone through won't be in vein. They need their freedom. Fuck Israel.

[@mel24681]

That's the nature of oppressive control and permanent threat.

[@boforce9096]

This shows us the pathetic nature of the genocidal izrhelli regime

[@ironelegance]

I had to play it back twice just to make sure I heard what I heard.

[@theLORDGod_G450]

I humbly thank all at Electronic Intifada for telling this horrible story everyday!

[@R12390]

Abubaker’s smile is so beautiful. Always was but today is special.

[@Sun4Lyfe]

His gentle voice speaking truth to Empire, reflective of how he navigated the greatest atrocity of modern history.

[@ivycheng7248]

I admire the fighters… with their presented conditions, I m sure Gaza will be rebuilding up with way better results than before Oct 7th… we all should thank Sinwa for his courage and competency! Hope is there for sure, just need give Gazans time, help and safe environment. I m proud of you, Gazans! 😊

[@mischevious]

Everything in Gaza wasn’t completely obliterated for no reason. The monsters that did that have huge profit driven plans already in motion. Consider all resources stolen, along with northern Gaza and the West Bank. Palestinians likely won’t be allowed to organize or rebuild in any serious way. And the moment Al Qassam attacks for these reasons, because they’re still an occupied people and now completely dispossessed, they provide the excuse for the genocide to resume. Just remember that the perpetrators are still in control, Palestinians still have no agency.

[@janicej3436]

I pray the ceasefire holds and leads to permanent peace and security. Stay safe Abubaker. ❤️🇵🇸❤️

[@leymoonl4297]

It’s so heartwarming to see the people of Gaza smiling ❤. Palestine will never die. Salute to all the brave resistance fighters in Gaza 🫡

[@adib68]

Jon was very visibly moved when Abubaker went online. So great to see you guys like this.

[@theresabarzee1463]

We are crying with all of you. Breathing so hard to just keep life safe for all there. Yes!

[@mariaiannuccillo4699]

Finally some real Joy❣️Thankyou ei and Thankyou Abubaker Abed.. You're Amazing!! Palestina Libera 🇵🇸🕊️🇮🇹

[@gs123]

Such a timely episode! Thank you all for doing it

[@nmyers8771]

Thank you all for your tireless thorough reporting and journalism. Praying for healing and liberation. PALESTINE WILL BE FREE!! ❤️‍🩹🕊💚

[@CircaBEFORE]

I will keep praying for a free state called Palestine. And for Palestinians to thrive and be completely free. And for innumerable yellow roses🌞 🌹 to bloom next spring!! I hope you can go back to doing what you Love Abubaker and telling football stories. Thank you for everything. You remained steadfast and survived. I’ve learned so much from Palestinians. Never let oppressors take your dignity or break you. Free Palestine from the Rind To The Seed. 🍉🫶🏻🇵🇸🙏 Now is the time for healing ❤️‍🩹 and rebuilding. I hope to go to Palestine and help you anyway I can to come back from the abyss Israel brought Palestinians to. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lecqz]

As always, much love and gratitude to you all. Wonderful to hear from Abubaker. Crying tears of joy atm, I remain cautiously optimistic. And yet, the ultimate goal must be liberation for the Palestinian people. 🧡🍉🇵🇸🕊

[@Desiree_BB]

We all know the struggles that remain, but thank you for celebrating what we are able to celebrate.

[@bubbsincharge1284]

What a pleasure to see you all smiling together, made my day.

Can't believe it. ei was airing live, and I missed it! I was on the arabic media following the events in Gaza while you were here. Thanks, guys! I have no words, just emotions.

Thanks to the whole ei team for your steadfastness and keeping us all sane, hopeful, mobilized, informed, awed, inspired, heartbroken, and unbowed.❤❤❤✌️✌️✌️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸💔💔💔

[@alokmukherjee8160]

Thank you for introducing us to Abubaker Abed. His words are profound and on the spot. This is, we hope, a lasting peace for the people of Gaza to bury their lost ones, rebuild their lives and find normalcy. Yet, as he said, this is not the end of the struggle, which will not end until Palestine is free and joins the rest of that part of the progressive world which is fighting to end colonialism, imperialism, racism, oppression and exploitation.

[@ileanahernandez1709]

Thank you Electronic Intifadah !

[@donaldohman8892]

Amazing, such encouraging work from the Electronic Intifada 🇵🇸

[@irisbowen8035]

OMG I'm crying my heart out, from sheer joy for the people of Gaza.Their courage, and resilience is unmatched that eventually paid off. Thanks to electronic intifada for giving us the pleasure of seeing the Palestinians celebrate the ceasefire live on screen. God bless 🙌 all those activists, journalists and every good human being that helped bring this ceasefire to fruition. ♥️🙏✌️🇵🇸✨️

[@nickmolinary2044]

Such a joyous day, to see so many people in Gaza celebrating the end to this jenna side. And EI team you were there informing us all along the way. I cant wait to read Abubaker's sport reports. Palestine has changed the world. Here is to a renewed commitment to a world without empires, without apartheids, without jenna sides. Here is to all those who have been lost, and whose memories will be the compass by which we find our path.

[@jibrilyero2263]

Yemen on my mind The country of the Bravehearts. A country where there are no cowards

[@boforce9096]

Yemen has shown the world what a solidarity and will for justice really means. Yemen is a land of remarkable heroes 👍⚖️🇵🇸🤜🤛

[@CLBOO6]

Just love seeing those HUGE SMILES on your faces after you watch the ceasefire celebration footage

Tears of joy! Bless Abubaker 🙏🏼 Holding my breath and hoping for the best in the next days, weeks, months, and years and a free Palestine!

[@goodluck5642]

Thanks for doing this. It helps with knowing how much to be hopeful/relieved when there’s so little to trust

[@janicej3436]

Never forget, never forgive…

[@patsoby]

Long live the resistance! We all love Palestine!!!!

[@JamesHart-h6j]

Now Israel must be held to account

[@IHoMyPo]

It would be good for you all to address Abubaker's contention that many humanitarian organizations were somehow remiss in carrying out their duties during the genocide. He mentioned some very reputable organizations, which is very disturbing. Thanks for the usual excellent discussion and content.

[@R12390]

Just give to UNRWA trusted for decades to support the Palestinians. ❤

[@Dee-JayW]

The word about World Central kitchen, which he specifically mentioned, must get out. People still support them. UNRAW is the ONLY trusted organization.

[@frankmerlino336]

I don't doubt that Electronic Intifada will look at this. ..

[@MrBl3ki]

Yes, a full interview with all the details and a list for an easy overview.

[@janicej3436]

Yellow Rose blooming…. 💐❤

[@javneycarmellemohr1332]

"We wish the world for you, Abubaker. You have made us stronger. You have proved to the world what bravery and steadfastness is." (-Nora) Thank you, Abubaker. We wish and will fight for the world for you. Until liberation and return, from the Jordan river to the Mediterranean sea, from Turtle Island to Palestine, Syria to Venezuela, Cuba a Irlanda. Until the olive trees root deep again and reach out - free - unto the skies. We are with you every day onwards in this fight for a liberated world.

[@blissfulearth334]

I am American and I don't understand how Israelis can HATE these joyful, resilient people. Abubaker is so kind and warm; what a big heart. And he does not have anger....how could he not have bitterness and rage about what has been done to his ppl?

[@thewhitelodgery]

Because having rage only perpetuates it - The Israeli's are a perfect example of this.

[@lucindalavelle4246]

Thank you from my heart. You are the first channel I reach for every day and you kept me moving through the terror and grief.❤

[@caylia9989]

Thank you❤

[@MimimmiDiMarte]

Love from Italy. #justiceforpalestine 🇵🇸 W la Palestina libera ❤

[@PixelRacer64]

Thanks to all of you for an amazing job ! Today we can celebrate. Who knows in the coming weeks ? I happened to watch FOX for 2 minutes and read the comments of Americans.... As an older Canadian born in Quebec. What is wrong with Americans. Can't they see misinformation and propaganda. Glad my family sold our summer home in Cape Cod decades ago. None of us visit or have crossed the border in a long time. Europe and Asia are better when rest is needed. Thanks again !

[@6Untitled9]

The problem is that most people have difficulty seeing past their own biases. The propaganda and misinformation put out by the official media channels, simply panders and exploits the ingrained prejudices of the target audience.

[@brasherish]

Unbelievable how the world has done nothing for the palestinians. The resilience of these people is truly inspiring. Love and respect to you all at EI. ❤

[@AlexaTaganrog]

Great to see the happiness going around!

[@Aurelia-128]

Standing ovation for Abubaker! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Sending you so much love 🥰 I’m weeping as I listen to you. Thank you to EI for giving him a platform here. We will stand with Palestine forever ♥️ You will never walk alone again. Always in our thoughts, hearts and prayers.

[@rnicholson4135]

[@westleaf11]

Thank God for the ceasefire!!!!! Israeli barbarism has been paused in Gaza!!! Please let the humanitarian aid flow freely!!! The Palestinians deserve so much recognition from the world. Thank God again!!!!
