[@epluribusburnum3082]

The late Edward Said passed away before Israel expulsed its people from Gaza. The late Edward Said would never live long enough to see the hundreds of thousands of rockets to be launched from Gaza once the Palestinians earned their freedom!!!!!

[@khaliddurrani6432]

Imagine someone living at the edge of life, battling a fatal disease, suffering Chemo and its toxicity and still keeping hope at the pinnacle of willpower. Who else but Edward Said could do that ??

[@ricardoalmeida4719]

Have you seen Hitchens debating Tony Blair, or his last interviews?

[@John1925T]

Khalid great point u made.

[@Gadot-d6r]

Do miss him?! I do. I got all his books, them are my solace.

[@syy9429]

He’s amazing. I’m so inspired by him. Omg. May he rest in power. What a voice.

[@mossfitz]

He's totally bogus. Only those with no critical thinking - or reading - abilities whatever could fail to see that his books are nothing but a heap of unsupported assertions, assumptions and resentments. He is exactly what is sick about 'soft science' academia.

[@BillyBob-xw8kf]

Brilliant, courageous, compassionate, empathetic, Intelligent, poignant and most of all: sorely missed.

[@ruchirchaturvedi7793]

Reading Orientalism for the first time at the age of 35. Never felt more drawn to a mind than yours. Your contributions to enlightenment, emancipation, and humanism will live on forever.

[@TravisRiver]

Cheers, mate

[@maiapraiz6774]

Beautiful soul, so needed nowadays, I hope Noam Chomsky gets to 100 with the same clear mind, we need these souls.

[@enriqueprieto4189]

Said was an amazing human being, not only for Palestinian People as for the humanity

[@petrichor100]

We miss you Edward! RIP!

[@clairmontlodgesurvivorsclu4521]

In late May of 2021, this voice from the past echoes greater truth.

[@literatious308]

Even more so in June of 2024

[@silviajuarez4178]

What an extremely intelligent and empathetic human being.

[@chugalongway01]

Edward Said was a giant among intellectuals

[@salmanmasud918]

Dr. S.H. Nasr is the great living intellectual.

[@lilypad999-i9v]

of course, he's ethnically a Jew!

[@lilypad999-i9v]

obviously not that intellectual is he to not know that...

[@tmsphere]

I miss Edward Said, he's dearly missed, he is needed in America & Palestine, we need a new Edward Said.

[@MB-dp1rj]

Ah, so greatly missed. An intellectual of rare nobility and humility. Its a privilege to listen to his ideas and perspective on the great peoples of the Middle East.

[@mabroukatis]

He's the philosopher who invented the concepts of, Defining yourself vs "The Other"

[@nickwyatt9498]

Wonderful listening to Said, so calm, so wise and so lucid even while battling with cancer. Charlie, on the other hand, had obviously had tee many martoonis beforehand 😅

[@TerlinguaTalkeetna]

Wish he could have seen the arab spring and glad he didn't have to see what has just transpired in Gaza and Israel. A great mind, heart, and spirit.

[@linsenli2500]

The Arab Spring was a farce, I don't think Said would have been pleased by it.

[@enriqueprieto4189]

Thank you Mr. Said

[@Anonymous1dskjoadi93]

Edward said deserved a noble peace prize

[@omarmahfouz5599]

They gave it to obama 😂

[@rawanalamayreh6040]

I wonder what he would think of the recent atrocities committed against Palestinians, he said he's optimistic, that made me truly and deeply sad.

[@majedabuthaher3765]

As a Palestinian I wish that he was the leader of PLO .

[@itaintjustmee]

and unfortunately, would be eaten up by the gods of power and war...as a fellow Palestinian...

[@moatazmattar4714]

He was an intellectual. I don't think it would fit

[@elaovi]

@@moatazmattar4714 Literally anyone would’ve been better than Arafat

[@moatazmattar4714]

@@elaovi why though? I thought he was a hero?

[@GuyShōtō]

@@moatazmattar4714 Arafat had a bad habit of pocketing money meant to furbish the Palestinian Authority and would hand positions to allies as opposed to genuinely skilled administrators.

[@seancourtney9021]

I had forgotten about him, alas and didn't know he died back then. So depressing to hear him talk about reconciliation between Palestinians and Jews and the need fr a Jewish leader to acknowledge the pain of the 1948 dispossession of the Arabs, depressing in the light of what is going on right now, in October 2023, some 20 years after this interview, when the Hope for Peace has significantly dimmer.

[@rafia_khan]

Revisited this myself....saner voices have no place in the rabid politicism of today

[@literatious308]

My takeaway is politics drives geopolitical policy & it takes many more decades of pain to change the course of the supertanker called US hegemony than optimists ever imagine. Nevertheless I choose to believe a more just system can & will emerge. Remember Bush speech “kinder & gentler nation”? We’re still watching & waiting for the tide to turn toward cooperation.

[@anuradhainamdar8967]

Though I have read none of his books ,it is his humbleness that has lead him to just a echelon of position among the Universities .Like Noam Chomsky he is a visionary and well spoken fellow, the day we lost such a gaint to Luekemia was sad for intellectual faculties of the world. May what he has left behind be read with interest and awards" like the International Mahatma Gandhi prize for peace" be instituted in his name.He is a proud symbol of Palestinian identity.

[@literatious308]

Neither Gandhi nor Mother Teresa are the saints they are portrayed as. A deep dive into history from various voices always gives greater insight & clarity.

[@literatious308]

Narratives are rarely factual & certainty lack nuance. Enjoy your exploration of what really happened.

[@Abs222-]

Best Arabic professor ❤

[@rational-public-discourse]

I guess you have to be dying of cancer for Charlie to behave himself and not to continually interrupt the person. This is one of the better interviews conducted by Charlie Rose, and the humanity of Edward Said should take the credit for that.

[@cyrus-shanghai2283]

I am Jew, but I feel the pain of this man… he is another victim of Human nature… domination and power upon each other… time to time the role changes from one band to another band…

[@xds900]

Rose’s challenge to Said’s despondence for the Palestinians’ suffering is chilling (16:45).

[@khaliddurrani6432]

An exceptionally larger than life person a Christian himself who finally got recognition, his voice heard though not heeded in a society tainted by Judo-Christian prejudice for Muslims in general and Palestinians in particular , speaks itself for his status.

[@botas5254]

[@dayan47]

You mean to say against Muslims not for Muslims prepositions are so important.

[@supersarah5157]

What a gift he was to the world. He is greatly missed. Beautiful highly intelligent incredible person proudly Palestinian

[@lilypad999-i9v]

he looks like a Jew because he is ethnically one. not that smart is he...

THE GREAT EDWARD SAID

[@NadeemKhanNUML]

Edward Said was a a university in himself.

[@lujainjabar5552]

I wonder what if he still alive ? What would his opinions be about the current events that took place ! What would he think about Arab countries who declared peace with Israel!?

[@migrationethistoire]

He have prefered to commit suicide than To see somthing like That

[@abomarsyr103]

what a great man RIP

[@TravisRiver]

This conversation clearly took place before September

[@christopherhamilton3621]

Everything he said is still valid, notwithstanding.

[@rachelcorrie8928]

Amnesty International, Human Rights watch, J-Street, B'TSelem and Neturei Karta have all condemned lsraeI as an Apartheid state.

[@fafolaw]

"Neturei Karta " lol

[@literatious308]

As Israel would say, obvious proof these organizations are antisemitic, genocidal & deny the right for a Jewish Nation to defend itself. “Settlers” in West Bank are armed & continually usurping land & destroying home, armed with US weapons freely distributed by Israeli govt. PA helps IDF. They’re incarcerating native residents without charges or legal representation by huge escalation since 10/07/23, now doubled uncharged detention since.

[@rishabhaniket1952]

Charlie Rose was definitely a clown when he spoke but he was perhaps he was the only one conducting long form interviews with the most interesting people of their time. There is no ease about his demeanour, always too excited to interject and babble.

[@rashlion]

I noticed how the interviewer tried to control the narrative

[@javimarinas9347]

Interviewer, Charlie, kept interrupting so you could never hear the last few words of every sentence Edward spoke.

[@judysteadman799]

Huge loss when he passed in 2003.

[@chelvamano4741]

mam good to hear your thoughts..

[@cliffgaither]

( Hamas ) Said :: "Their [ Hamas ] attractiveness to young people". If Israel has a Right to exist ... the Palestinians have a Right to Self-Defense.

[@syy9429]

Wow his words are still true today.

[@Miranda9162]

I wonder what he would say about what is happening now in Israel/Gazza. Nothing has changed. It’s all only got worse.

[@elizabethjgall8054]

I wish the interviewer would stop interrupting him

[@FCristian92]

hero

[@itssanti]

I think Dr Said was an outstanding speaker. Yet I can't recall any state apologizing to the people they oppressed, killed or dispossessed. The only exception to my knowledge would be Germany, and I think they did so because they lost the war. I can't imagine any possible scenario in which an undefeated Germany would have apologized for its crimes.

[@lmarsh5407]

Canada is one example, or south Africa, as well as potentially the UK to Ireland but im not sure about that last one

[@lilypad999-i9v]

For the last time, this man is not an Arab.

[@fariedbadjeber-ds6zv]

💚💚💚

[@xds900]

Rose’s questioning about Palestinian denial of Israel’s right to exist is so one-sided. Zionism denies Palestine’s right to exist.

[@victormeidan1062]

How can a nation-state that never was in recorded history, can simply will itself into existence ? Especially so, if this realization comes at the expense of a people who have already been around (the Jews) ? The entire story lacks a credible, independent beginning. The first Arab King of Palestine was called ???. His Royal Palace was at ???? Their Capital was ????? Their native currency was ???? Their army was led by General ???? All these questions are open and cannot be answered because the thing being imagined is FAKE.

[@seanabbas7053]

[@georgka74]

what would he say today , after the 10.07.23?

[@christopherhamilton3621]

He would still defend the common Palestinian.

[@beckaldo8741]

When you learn to speak in full sentences, I will answer your question. Until then, you should recognize that nothing is so clear cut. People are complex, cultures are complex and we must be open minded in our perceptions of them. Otherwise we end up becoming arrogant, and lack any form of growth. I know this is late, and I know it is unnecessary. But if you have a genuine question, I would be happy to try and answer it.

[@wesam8444]

You are right anyone who doesn't see that is blind , where ever there is islam there is war , conflict poverty and hatred toward others i lived their and anybody who denies that is deep in denial , time to wake up

[@SA41959]

@@wesam8444 BS! It has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with Western politic gain and greed. The rapacious West just cannot stop interfering and imposing itself in Islamic lands, that’s what the real issue is! If they would just eff off and leave Muslim countries alone there wouldn’t be such destruction and chaos in the Middle East. Stop using Islam as a scapegoat for Western crimes.
