Is Marwan Barghouti a 'Palestinian Nelson Mandela'? • FRANCE 24 English

FRANCE 24 speaks to the family of the man that many Palestinians believe is the key to future peace in Gaza. Marwan Barghouti is a convicted terrorist who has served two decades in an Israeli prison. He denies the charges and is hailed by supporters as the "Palestinian Nelson Mandela". He's the subject of a new documentary. Gavin Lee talks to Marwan’s son Arab Barghouti and the co-director of the documentary ‘Tomorrow’s Freedom’, Sophia Scott.

Mandelas grand son, still alive and is on voyage to Palestine.

[@ShaffafAhmed]

and his twitter has been suspended by Elon.

[@sklouzoukli]

it has become clear enough till now that it s not the lack of "mandelas" from the palestinian side the cause of this "complicated" problem, but the lack of will from the israeli and american side to give palestinians equal rights with their neighbors in the same territory

[@zombiesoul-eater741]

Palestinians have been offered a state 6? times - 99% of 1967 borders-- the only reason is they refuse to accept bitter compromises is to many of them want the entire greater area for there state and to be a without any Jews in the land - the moment they accept the fact that 7 million jews(+2 million muslim israeli) are not going anywhere and they have a right to exist that is the moment they will accept to divide the land.

[@jaegybomb]

American's have been trying to give Palestinians their freedom and their own country since the day they broke their stance of neutrality and got majorly involved back in the 70s. If Palestinians ever want a 2 state peace overwhelming international pressure would make it happen within a year but they are getting paid tons of money to keep fighting. The leaders that actually understand the conflict know all they can really do is wait for the Palestinians. It's a shame because Abbas was kind of coming around on the idea of peace and lost his support because of it.

[@jp5419]

Total BS. We have given BILLIONS to build a Singapore on the Mediterranean and instead they built terror tunnels and taught their children to be racists and rapists. GTFOH!!!

[@MagdiNonDuality]

Free M Barghouti Free this leader now

[@edtoar]

Regresen el cuerpo de Orión Hernández ASESINADO POR PALESTINOS el 7 de octubre

[@mysteryhaha3150]

Mandela loves Palestine.... So does the world

[@manubande]

Just to be clear... Marwan Barghouti is a Freedom Fighter, not a terrorist...

[@user-hi4jn3bm6q]

VIVA BARGHOUTI Palestine will be FREE 🍉🍉🍉

[@bridgetsaenz2774]

Amén ❤

[@dvoravithanovsky6902]

Thank you for this important interview and important new film

[@susanna6103]

Thx

[@shupingwang3392]

Does Marwan Barghouti have Isreal citizenship ?

[@sklouzoukli]

no

[@MendeMaria-ej8bf]

If Palestinians need a unifying and peaceful leader, Israelis need the same.

[@User2024now]

where are the women in the crowds of supporters?! they found one, the rest of of footage was of screaming men.

[@tethergobrrr]

I think PFLP is the future. But who cares what I think, Palestinian people must choose their leaders. Marwan Barghouti must be released along with all the other political prisoners. (Which is all the prisoners, given the court system is illegitimate.)

[@leeburrell7516]

No one like mandela😮

[@User2024now]

agreed!

[@eehkoh7935]

I remember there was in the 80s , when mandela was still behind bars and the apartheid south africa regime still being protected by their US and UK godfathers and mandela was described as 'a dangerous person engaged in violent activities' in the msm... it seems we are seeing history repeating itself here.

[@kasiafindlater4490]

I saw this film I. London

[@Max-dm4uv]

Are there any evidence that this man was tortured in prison? What are these absurd claims - how can a public broadcaster spread such allegations?

[@Adriana04101]

It's very well known that IDF torture everyone in those jails. They do a lot of horrible things even to young and innocent teens.

[@MagdiNonDuality]

Never heard of solitary confinement?

[@waltaulemmoja7098]

The Palestinian struggle just went mainstream before social media we would have believed Israeli lies now we know better and what Israel is doing in Gaza isn't helping their cause

[@ruyaal]

Sure, they don’t torture or imprisoned children.

[@Max-dm4uv]

@@ruyaal If this were true, there would be reports from Amnesty International. Since these reports do not exist, it's a lie and pure propaganda.

[@kiringo4807]

All Palestinians are Nelson Mandela except hamas

[@mischevious]

Not all Palestinians are Ham.. but all Ham.. are Palestinians. The sons and grandsons of the first nakbah and many slaughters of Palestinians since.
