It's not about the massacre only right now which is a result of the siege, but to break the siege. The people in Gaza, children and women, for many, many years now, almost close to two, three years, they are under the siege. They have no food, no medicine. There is no access to the hospitals. Even the ambulances, the EMS guys, they got bombed even in this siege. So, my number one goal with this coalition is to break the siege in Gaza and stop the massacre which is taking place right now. This is the largest and hugest massacre happened to the Palestinian people since 1948.
1948?
Yeah, 1948 the massacre in Deir Yassin, as we remember it was about 200 and some. And Deir al-Balah and Beersheba and the others, it doesn't go beyond two or three hundreds. The one up to date is almost 900, and told this is going on. And I believe it will continue with the stupid silence of our leaders and our presidents and the kings around the world, including the Arab and non-Arab, Muslim and non-Muslim, very few. And I want to take this chance to salute the president of Venezuela, Chavez, for his firm stand against the massacre in Gaza by by removing the Israeli ambassador from Venezuela. And I will demand all our leaders and presidents and kings in Arab countries, those who have a treaty with the Zionist regime, to just stop this relationship, just get the ambassadors out and take a firm action to support our brother and sister in Gaza. It's not about Hamas, it's not about Fatah, it is about the children and women getting killed in a daily basis, in an hourly basis, in Gaza right now.
We stand here to speak for those who have been censored by the American government and censored by the media. Today, we saw the New York Times reach a new low. On the front page of the New York Times, there is an article that says that Hamas is wearing civilian clothing to explain away the murder of infants and toddlers. The family of four children who cannot stand and leave their mother's body, emaciated emaciated from starvation. We stand here with heavy hearts, hoping to reach out to our American friends, our New York neighbors. And before we begin our brief program, we would like to take a moment of silence in honor of our fallen people in Palestine. Please, a moment of silence.

Shame, and shame to the to the Western powers who support this war and this massacre and holocaust, who is killing innocent children and women. This is what I'm here for, for today. I'm a Palestinian.
And if you keep coming out, we will win! From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free! From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!
Shame on you!

Shame on you!
Can you tell us why you're here?
With God's help, we've come from the religious Jewish communities, ones who are true to the Torah, to reveal to the world the truth: that the State of Israel does not represent Judaism, it represents nationalism, a movement that was created by people who had their selfish ambitions, non-religious Jews, people who went against God, who were heretics, who rebelled against the Torah. As a Jewish people, we are to emulate God, to be compassionate. We are forbidden, according to the Jewish religion, to have our own sovereignty. We are forbidden to oppress a people. We are forbidden to in any manner to have our own state and rebel against the nation, or to in any way go up in mass to the land of Israel, and especially It would be forbidden for us if the land would have been uninhabited, but in order to They have compounded their terrible crime against God being that they decided to create their nationalism, their state, the Zionist movement, the State of Israel in a in a land that was occupied, a land that was inhabited by a people. What they're doing is pure nationalism. It has nothing to do with religion, but they're using the religion. They've taken the identity, the Star of David, they've taken the name "Israel", simply to legitimize their crime, their terrible atrocity, their Nakba, what they're doing to the Palestinian people.
Okay, what what solution do we have to end this conflict now?
The first thing is people have to know the root cause of the problem. They must understand that this is not a religious conflict. We have been living together hundreds of years, Jews and Arabs, Jews and Muslims. It's not a religious conflict and it's not a rift between people of different religions. The reason for this conflict is because of a selfish, flawed political movement of Zionism. If people understand the problem, then they will be able to work out the solution so that Jews and Muslims and Arabs can live together in peace, and we can do that. It's a relatively new movement, Zionism of only a hundred years, and thousands of years we were living together. If you take away this impediment to peace, then we can live together. It can be done and that we can live, just as South Africa, the apartheid state ended and blacks and whites were able to live together. We can live together, we will live together because this is God's will.
We are here because our hearts are rent, because we are crying, because we feel the suffering of the people of Palestine. Yes! We are here today because we are human beings created by the one God! Why is this frightening, deafening silence around the world when innocent human beings are dying? They are using the name of the holy Torah, they are using the name of God, they are using our name! They have stolen, they have kidnapped the identity of the Jewish people! They have stolen our name! They have kidnapped our souls, our children and our identity! Judaism: yes! Zionism: no! The State of Israel The State of Israel must go! Free, free Palestine! Free, free Palestine! Free, free Palestine! Free, free Palestine! Free!
