Palestine Ambassador: Western politicians have failed us

[@blackwavenoise]

Excellent interview. Husam Zomlot always comes across as honest speaker. In the world we live in today, more than ever, equal rights for everyone.

[@juliewake4585]

I agree. He always seems thoughtful and intelligent.

[@sarahpengelly8439]

Keir Starmer was a human rights lawyer but somehow didn't understand that is a war crime to deny food, water & medicine. He has FAILED massively with this.

[@MrBl3ki]

He purposefully freed Muslim rapists and pedophiles in UK, while letting innocent ones to be mass slaughtered in Palestine and the Middle East. It is done on purpose of course, to create chaos and use if for support of such heinous foreign policy.

[@eltigre7224]

Thank you for interviewing Ambassador Husam Zomlot. He is a remarkable man. I hope that the UK government will stop supplying arms to Israel, and support a Palestinian state.

I think if you're destroying infrastructure and farms and moving people from their land then you can obivously make a case that this prevents those people from reproducing their way of life. I've said many times that a lot of people who were labour voters will never go back under Starmer because of what he said. Great Interview.

We cant vote for either red or blue genocide. I will remember in 4 years time, but thats too long to get change now. Makes you feel like the whole thing was planned this way!

[@wilfredsterling2124]

Starmer is said to be MI5 - MI6 man. The same organisations that fabricated the Iraqi threat. How can we trust these people? How do these secret service organisations work? What are their real motives? We know very little about them. Plus they appear to of made several errors preventing domestic terror.

Look at his interview compared to Bibitler... Zomlot is like talking to your college professor while Bibitler is like talking to a scammer salesman.

So glad to hear that things are changing for Palestine!!!!

[@feralLove]

It is good to see Husam Zomlot. I wish our american government had such men of integrity and humility as he, but is, unfortunately, sorely lacking.

[@AUnityInDiversity]

That's because he came from a background that understands the suffering of his people and he also is suffering the same fate...unlike most politicians who can't relate with the struggle of everyday people

Husam Zomlot is always a honest diplomat, he speakes with integrity and needs to be an integral part of the Palestinian State and government.

[@bleep957]

😂 not if Iranian backed Islamic Fundamentists have anything to do with it . If Palestinians had not been given the myths and the victimhood to perpetuate the buzz words . 2,000,000 Arabs Isreali citizens does not make a genocide. Blaming Isreal for Muslims tribal fighting is a joke . Palistinians tried to overthrow Jordan, Lebanon they destroyed, Quwait they were extremely treacherous and the Libya. No one wants radicalised Palestinians .

[@manoalex6575]

Fabulous measured and logical views of the Ambassador...should have more like him in the Palestine Admin as well as those in Isreal... Required level headed leaders and not uncompromising leaders and fanatics...Somehow even if Isreal wins muscles wise ..This world will change and will not rest until the Palestine Statehood is resolved...many young leaders will emerge from the US..UK.. Isreal and Palestine who will be saner..wiser and pragmatic...the hardline wall of myths will be broken...which the current leaders on all sides are fixated on...

Good . Its become a embarrassing indictment to a failed elected terrorist government who when asked on international tv why they did not provide bomb shelters or food aid when they attack on unarmed civilians and kidnappings was going to start a war . ' 75 % of people in Gaza are refugees, its not our responsibility to look after them, it's UN '. This pretty much sums up the Palestinian mentality that has just resulted in Isreal bombing of Gaza. Its a sorry government that runs and hides in tunnels built by Gazans slaves and lets women and children take the bombs . Sinwar is a cowardly man . How can anyone have admiration for him .

As bad as the Tories were I'd sooner see them in government for the rest of my life than make myself complicit in Israeli war crimes by voting Labour - the party I was raised to support.

I hate to say it but voting Conservatives would give you an equal amount of blood on your hands as voting Labour has. Political parties are meaningless red herrings to the corporate money makers, particularly the military industrial complex. They have captured both parties.

[@craigham93]

​@ramkedoodle arms sales to Israel should be made subject to them not invading or bombing neighbouring countries, unless they are targeting military targets exclusively. No civilian casualties should be accepted. Arms sales should also be subject to compliance with UN resolutions 194 and 242 as a start. 194 might not be legally binding but 242 is because it was laid down by the UNSC. it won't solve the problems but it's better than arming the aggressor. Israel is armed to the teeth as a matter of grand strategy rather than any notion of defending a state for Jews. It's there as a permanent base for the United States in the region.

[@enigmabletchley6936]

Since 2005 Palestinians have on average received $568 per capita per year in international aid. Burundi, the poorest nation in the world during the same period has received on average $48 per capita per year. Palestinians have a life expectancy 3 years greater than the world average (72 years in 2023) and 12 years greater than Burundi. For the last 20 years 9% of the entire UN aid budget has gone UNWRA to support the Palestinians. The PA has failed the Palestinians, not the West (which has actually failed poorer countries like Burundi which really need that aid).

[@Coffee23]

Israel has had Gaza on a calorie diet, just enough to keep them alive, for 17 years. Gazans had to dig tunnels to get even a piece of paper and pencil into Gaza - chocolate, pencils, writing paper,....all banned. Everything that was allowed in had to be bought in Israel. Many Palestinians are made to work on their own land for Isreali owners as all but slave labour. Gazans fortunate to have an Israeli work permit take hours to get across the checkpoint and hours to get back, all paid buttons! Gazans must have permission to obtain even cancer treatment from Israel, many, even children, are refused - it can take months to obtain an Israeli permit to leave Gaza to West Bank. Many are stopped at the check points left for days in ambulances or shot and left on the ground. The IDF often enter their shops and homes and steal all valuables including jewellery, cash, laptops, ....! Every few years, Israel mows Gazas lawn with its latest weapons before they are sold on the World's arms market and market Tested in War! The list of barbarities suffered at the hands of the Israeli Demons is endless! So don't talk nonsense!

[@IllusionistBeatsOfficial]

Have you had your head in the sand this whole time? Israel hasn't been allowing aid to enter palestine, and they're using weapons and funding from the west to prevent this aid from entering. Tens of thousands (possibly more) children have been massacred. Try telling them it's all OK because some old people exist.

[@jackkidd7350]

This is genuinely such a stupid argument because Palestinian aid has to be adjusted to costs in Israel so 48 dollars in Burundi goes much further. Burundi is also not being regularly bombed by its neighbours so cost that out in terms of aid your idea that somehow the PA are responsible for israeli occupation of land they don’t even currently control or have access to is just insane levels of stupidity

[@LGrian]

With ~42k dead in one year, and ~17k of them being children, seems that will not last for long. That’s already a decade less than Israel’s 82

[@craigham93]

That would be the Palestinian authority that doesn't control gaza though, that would be the Palestinian authority that exists in the OCCUPIED TERRITORY of the west Bank? All of those calculations and you don't even know of what you are referring to. Fatah hasn't been in power in Gaza since 2006. Hamas took control in gaza because it was physically locked off from the world by Israel and Egypt. The occupier drove those people to desperation and they elected an extremist government.
