  1. Americans and Germans are fully aware of their elected governments complicity in all this.

  2. We depend on electronic intifada to keep us informed.

  3. The Swiss need to be hounded about their treatment of Ali.

  4. I wish good luck to promoting the new report. I am relieved to be living in Spain where we do not have anti-Palestinian laws. Spain said last Friday that, in the name of Middle East peace, it had agreed with Ireland, Malta and Slovenia to take first steps toward recognizing statehood declared by the Palestinians in the Israeli-controlled West Bank and in the Gaza Strip. Last year Spanish President Pedro Sánchez outraged Israel’s leadership by accusing the nation of failing to comply with international humanitarian law in its siege and bombardment of the Gaza Strip.

  5. But for electronic intifada we would not know the extent of the Israeli genocide. Against the military might of the USA we are helpless.

  6. I am sure the aid from Spain was good fresh food when it was sent to Jordan but the trucks cannot get into Gaza and the food rots. Spain had done much to support the Palestinians but the Americans support the Israelis and it is difficult for Spain to confront the United States as the Americans are so powerful, like an Empire in control of the West and many parts of the world with 700+ bases throughout the world. We have two American bases in Spain, one for the U.S. Navy at Rota (Cádiz) and an air force base near Sevilla, both in Andalucía where I live. The United States keeps control of its allies with bases.

  10. Spain does not allow Maersk with armaments for the Israelis to use any Spanish port. Greetings from Granada, España.

  11. I am not allowed to make my own comments except as a reply to others but I did want to say that you are correct and I would add that the Israeli woman did have pity for the pilot who killed her family because "he almost saved them"??? How odd.

  13. Every broadcast of the electronic intifada talks about The New York Times as though all of us are Americans or New York residents. Greetings from Granada, Spain.

  14.  @Freedom_nesting  The British government is a staunch supporter of the Israelis.

  15. Chris Gunness made complete sense.

  16. Not necessarily. The Austrians supported Hitler who was Austrian and they became part of the Third Reich. Yet, they are never blamed for Nazism.

  18. Aisha spoke about Spain allowing flights from Zaragoza carrying military cargo to Israel. I live in Granada, Spain and I was waiting to hear which Spanish politicians and government departments her group spoke to or contacted in writing and what their responses were. Aisha, however, did not mention a single politician or government department so that I am in the dark regarding how these shipments were able to get around Spanish law which makes this activity illegal. There was a lot of chatter in this video but not providing Spanish residents, like myself, with the names of politicians and civil servants from relevant government bodies leaves us uninformed which was disappointing.

  27.  @michellenorris8471  Some of us are not investigative journalists and we prefer to be given names and facts rather than speculate who did what in the Spanish government which allowed the frustration of Spanish law.

  28.  @greetandries99  Some of us would like to know who in Spain is complicit.

  29.  @michellenorris8471  I suspect the information on some issues, such as illegally arming the Zionists, is understandably hidden which is why I was hoping for better information from Aisha.

  31. You are unclear about a defense system that could have stopped the murder of Ismail Haniyeh who was the victim of an inside job. The drone which killed him did not fly from Israel. The killer was in Tehran. What are you trying to say?

  32. Abdaljawad Omar is mistaken to generalize a "collective European imaginary" (22:25) sense of debt toward the Jews as though the people of Denmark or Portugal, Ireland or Greece, etc. shot and gassed Jews in the Final Solution. Some European countries actually faught the Nazis and some were neutral in WWII. He needs to change his opinion of European countries to explain why countries other than Germany and Austria support Israel while others are actually critical of Israel and have traditionally helped the Palestinians.

  33.  @Khaoskatze  Germany has been the biggest disappointment among all the European Union countries. What has happened to the people there, I wonder. The government in Berlin has decided to stop funding the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians but this is too little, too late.

  36. What mystified me was how quickly the Israeli narrative blamed all the deaths that day on the resistance fighters, including the killing of babies and rapes. Soon, knowledge of the Hannibal Protocol became known yet the western mainstream media continued to smear the Palestinian fighters with the most horrendous crimes and even influencers on social media who had reputations for supporting the Palestinians such as Norman Finkelstein and English journalist Owen Jones were repeating the Zionist account. Some of us are waiting for an independent investigation before we form an opinion.

  37. Why are you always talking about The New York Times I wonder. Who cares about it apart from YouTube commentators? Greetings from Granada, Spain where The New York Times is not on sale.

  43. Does Farrah think she persuaded even one person in the Belfast meeting by disrupting the event, I wonder. Sinn Féin has been supporting the Palestinian cause more than any other Irish party. Week after week in the Irish parliament Sinn Féin speakers have been asking the Irish government to do more for the people in Gaza. By her action of disruption at the meeting, Farrah wants to make herself an enemy of Sinn Féin. She will not find a party of politicians who are friendlier toward the Palestinians, including those in Gaza. She is critical of the recognized representative of the Palestinians in Ireland because the Palestinian ambassador is appointed by the Palestinian Authority but the role of the ambassador is to promote the links between all the Palestinian people and the people of Ireland, both North and South. It looks like Palestine recognizes Irish unity already. An argument can be made for attending the St. Patrick's Day visit to the White House and it is up to the Sinn Féin party what is best. Sinn Féin hope to be in government in the Republic as well as the Six Counties of the North and Ireland enjoys diplomatic relations with the USA. Visiting the White House is a way for the Irish people to get recognition every year by the sitting president. The Irish diaspora in the USA like to see the prime minister of Ireland deliver shamrock to the American president and to have a meeting of common interests. Ireland is not about to break diplomatic relations with the USA because of a difference with American policy by a particular administration. It is the Office of President as leader of the American Executive which counts. So, disrupting a meeting is supposed to help because Farrah does not like the decision of Sinn Féin to keep diplomatic relations with the USA? So every effort by Farrah to slur the Palestinian ambassador is used by shouting out that Dr Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid was appointed by the Palestinian Authority (PA), not Hamas. There would be no Palestinian Ambassador to Ireland if she were to wait being appointed by Hamas. Hamas does not appoint ambassadors. The State of Palestine does and it is a function of the Palestinian Authority to carry on the traditions of the PLO. Dr Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid is a Palestinian diplomat and has been one since 1995. Although appointed by the PA she represents all the Palestinian people and has presented her credentials to the President of Ireland. She is a very experienced, pleasant and caring mother of three children. In contrast, Farrah Koutteineh is a sullen, bitter, angry young girl who could use some manners.

  49. It is a bitter irony that the country which used the Nazi genocide of Jews to justify its foundation today stands accused of genocide in the International Court of Justice. Founded in violence, maintained by violence, and intending to wipe the Palestinian Arabs from Gaza through violence.

  52. We hear a lot about all the missiles Hezbollah have but some of us think this is mere propaganda. They are afraid to use their millions of rockets because the Israelis will hit back too hard. So what good are weapons which you cannot use?

  53.  @Freedom_nesting  The USA and Germany supply more than 90% of arms to Israel. Hence I named this pair. The others are minnows by comparison. There is nothing funny about this.

  59.  @Bavafa1  Actually, we do know how this murder took place. It was a bomb planted in the safe house used by Iran to provide hospitality and protection to its guests. The bomb was placed months ago by a resident of Tehran who was allowed access to the room made available later to Ismail Haniyeh. Iran failed to protect Ismail Haniyeh. The Iranian security personnel allowed an Israeli agent access to the guest room weeks ago. This was a slip up. Even an amateur could penetrate such poor security. You are talking about a "real and effective defense system" but you are mistaken as this failure was a police one not a military one. When you talk of a defense system you give the impression that you mean the military and this is not the Iranian failure in this instance. How did the security police allow an Israeli agent access to the room? Did they overlook an Iranian member of staff who was easily bribed to place the bomb and stay around for weeks and months until he was given an instruction to set it off by smartphone remote control. Are they watching the ports and crossings by land and sea to catch the killer as he escapes to a home in Israel. Is he already in Florida? Good police work would have uncovered the planted bomb. Why was the room not swept for explosives? It would not have been expensive to protect Ismail Haniyeh but the Iranians failed. The one to punish is firstly their minister of state security, Esmaeil Khatib who runs the Ministry of Intelligence of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

  60. ​ @jamesengelen361  You are talking about ally treaties. The United States will go down in flames rather than allow any country to defeat the Zionist State of Israel no matter what the Israelis do. The Americans will even help the Israeli Zionists to carry out their policies by supplying weapons and money regardless of how these are used. If Israel goes down then the United States go with it. Allies of Iran know that a strike against Israel is considered by Joe Biden to be a strike at the United States.

  61. The evidence that Israeli forces killed their own citizens is also disregarded by Owen Jones (3:25), praised by Ali Abunimah, who condemns Hamas in nearly every video he makes.

  62. It is not a pier or port that will take months. It is a water gangway or small dock onto which little barges can be towed from a boat and be unloaded onto trucks policed by Israeli tanks.
