00:00:00you're not allowed to be in,
00:00:03even though it's considered Area A.
00:00:06So we lived there, and
00:00:10the army initially stopped us because the road we use is a military road. They took us
00:00:13and transferred me to a court in Ofra. I attended
00:00:17discourse sympathetic the court, and they told us we were in a military zone.
00:00:20So I explained to them that this is Area A, and we pass
00:00:24through Area C to get there, but
00:00:31started throwing stones at fight with him, and he calls our homes are there, our sheep are there, our livelihood is there. So they allowed us to pass. Lately,
00:00:36President to participate in even meters from this they've been harassing us. Even before the war, there were harassments against us in these matters. In the recent
00:00:39period, during the war, there
00:00:43have been harassments against us.
00:00:46of tightening restrictions on Anyone caught at night
00:00:47people, especially in would be interrogated, "Why are you going? Why are you coming?" Many questions.
00:00:51During the war, the settlers
00:00:54have been harassing us a lot recently.
00:00:57about Gaza after years of They come and steal sheep,
00:01:00Annexation." Under this they steal anything, water tanks,
00:01:03In his comment on the anything in their way, they take it. They object to us walking
00:01:07the prospects of peace in the road, which is about 2 kilometers recent Israeli measures in of rough mountain terrain. Now, for these
00:01:092 kilometers of mountain road, they put a gate on it. We can no longer
00:01:13take out
00:01:18Palestine, which does not You are the guardians of the land in water tanks for the sheep or cars for alfalfa, barley, and things like that.
00:01:22several hundred So they increased the suffering of the residents of this area. This
00:01:26cluster has about
00:01:2924 houses.
00:01:32a tank and continues a war that Every day, people go down to their jobs, to work. There are
00:01:35school students who go up and down.
00:01:41could no longer has ended. Thank you for And it's not enough for them that even the settlers
00:01:43come to us at night with the army, armed
00:01:47with weapons, they raid and search houses
00:01:49The settlers came down from and look around. I'm talking about four
00:01:53days ago, they came to us
00:01:55numbers of Palestinian at 10 AM, the mountain. They were on
00:01:57matter, to help us. 10 soldiers
00:01:59and went to with female soldiers, and searched
00:02:01the village. They went to most of the houses. When they search houses, they don't leave
00:02:03anything, they destroy, they break whatever
00:02:07Nations, while the one is in front of them. This destruction and these attacks are experienced by the residents of the Aqabat al-Rumman cluster,
00:02:10as is the case in all clusters. But you mentioned
00:02:19of settlers in the are capable of helping us with this an important point: the classifications that the occupation uses as an excuse. You are in Area A, but you pass
00:02:22to do with what happened through an area considered classified C. What
00:02:24does this mean for
00:02:28extremist right-wing you, especially since in an area classified
00:02:29water, at least. C, the occupation recently placed
00:02:30The cluster he was talking about is on an iron gate, closing the only entrance
00:02:34Any attempt to suppress this to this cluster? Tell us about this.
00:02:37Regarding the gate,
00:02:41result. This was in of it. Where are the authorities responsible for this it greatly increased the suffering of the area because we live in a very rough
00:02:45area, and there
00:02:47conscience is no road except
00:02:49in this space last
00:02:51to talk about the suffering of the residents of this the only road with
00:02:52freedom the gate. Yes. And after
00:02:52This was in the gate, it's a rough road, almost
00:02:56Governorate. Therefore, due to the importance of this 2 kilometers of rough terrain. When I want to take out students
00:03:00from schools in the
00:03:03if pessimists are many." Jericho area in the scorching heat for 2 kilometers, it's not
00:03:05easy, it's very difficult, especially if
00:03:11system sliding towards more and what effect it has on there's a kindergarten and children, and adults. the tragedy of tens of thousands And for our livelihood, we have no
00:03:13way to do without the road because
00:03:16community faces a package of that road is how we bring water tanks,
00:03:18every year we do this we bring
00:03:19and any problem that happens with a settler, he calls our children's food,
00:03:22we bring anything that helps us
00:03:26the September meetings in New York
00:03:27I mean, if a settler calls to stay steadfast on this land. And how do you deal with it, under
00:03:30these closures? The occupation has been closing this cluster with an iron gate
00:03:33for a while now. How do you manage your children's going
00:03:37to and from school, the issue of transporting water, as
00:03:39you mentioned? It's a very difficult issue, not
00:03:42easy. We had
00:03:46of peace here. Then many to make arrangements so that there would be a car that
00:03:48takes people from below to above after the gate. They made
00:03:52it like a
00:03:55This work bridge point or a justifications in the vicinity for all this checkpoint that we cannot pass. So, when
00:03:58students want to go, they get off and get into another car,
00:04:03it to affect our steadfastness. No, we are steadfast on which takes them up. The water situation is the same. We have to take the amount
00:04:07we can to last
00:04:09They are expanding, attacking us with water. It's the same because no tractor
00:04:12coming out and confronting us on can go up, and no water tank can go up.
00:04:15especially at night, during And for our livestock, we have to take the livestock
00:04:182 kilometers down to the spring, to the spring
00:04:21of Ain Duyuk,
00:04:24do not so that the sheep can drink, because there's no way to bring
00:04:27and tractors up. And we have appealed
00:04:30to most organizations, and may God reward them, to help
00:04:32us because this area we are in is considered
00:04:36Area A. We pass
00:04:38the tour, the mayor
00:04:41that they have most entails serious risks area. How do you talk to through Area C. Area A is open to Jericho Governorate. We approached the governor,
00:04:44and he was helpful, may he be thanked, hoping that they would open
00:04:48a road for us from Area A to Area A,
00:04:52Palestinians from a kind of alternative. But we are waiting for
00:04:56procedures for them to give the OK to the municipality of
00:05:00Duyuk, the municipality of Nuweima and Duyuk, hoping
00:05:03that God willing,
00:05:05viewers, in the things will be eased and they will help us with these matters, the road matters,
00:05:08because
00:05:10press. We start from if this road were opened from Area A to
00:05:13A, there would be no need for me to go around from near Mevo'ot,
00:05:17and face these problems with settlers and the army in these
00:05:20areas. Yes, you also mentioned the difficulty of your livestock
00:05:23reaching water sources and the difficulty of supplying water
00:05:27even to the residents of this cluster. Today, the occupation deliberately
00:05:31fights the residents by targeting their livelihoods. We
00:05:34are talking about a cluster that relies either on agriculture or
00:05:37on livestock farming. Under these conditions, the closure
00:05:41with the iron gate, next to you is a settlement
00:05:44that prevents approaching
00:05:48road. How do you deal with
00:05:52your work and your source of livelihood?
00:05:55From the aspect
00:06:00our Jordan Valley, the settlers
00:06:04want no rural areas left at all.
00:06:07They want to take all rural areas. There aren't even pastures
00:06:10left for us. They know that pastures are the only source
00:06:14for rural life, so they fight
00:06:17people by restricting them in rural areas.
00:06:21We have no pastures. If we come to the Jordan Valley area, we have no
00:06:25pastures left at all. And they distributed settlers.
00:06:27Every two kilometers, they put a settler, so that
00:06:31he has a protected area,
00:06:35dunams, claiming it's a protected area for him, where no Bedouin can graze
00:06:39or anything. I'm not surprised. Two days ago, they took about
00:06:42140 head of sheep from the eastern parts of
00:06:46Rumman in front of everyone's eyes.
00:06:49The press photographed it and everything, but no one did anything.
00:06:53Now they are harassing in these matters, they are harassing people's livelihoods
00:06:56in agriculture and livestock, especially in the Jordan Valley
00:07:00area. It's almost the most livestock
00:07:04and income
00:07:07for the residents. So when they fight us in these matters, they know that
00:07:10if people lose their livestock, they'll say, "Leave." But
00:07:14we say, "We are steadfast on our land." Even if they put gates, even if
00:07:18they put checkpoints, even if they put tanks, we are firmly rooted
00:07:22in our land. We will not leave it, even if they make our
00:07:25lives difficult, we will stay. And even if they steal our livestock, and steal
00:07:29our fodder and our cars, we will remain steadfast and firm, God willing,
00:07:33on our land. Yes, allow me, it was supposed to be discussed at this
00:07:36point at the beginning of this episode. Allow me to talk
00:07:39about the location behind me.
00:07:43the mountainous area behind me. We cannot
00:07:46even film in that area or get closer
00:07:49and film for a long time, because at any moment, the occupation
00:07:53and settlers might raid us and prevent us from
00:07:56that, and that would, of course, have repercussions for the residents. Today, we
00:08:00are talking about a strategic location, as shown in the picture.
00:08:03These are important places for the people of Jericho
00:08:08location, the occupation, for the same reason, seeks
00:08:11to control it and expel you from it. Tell us about
00:08:14the location.
00:08:16The occupation, led by the settlers, or
00:08:20"hill thieves" as they call them, who are
00:08:23the settlers they made
00:08:26into a "gun barrel" against the people, they harass people,
00:08:32the army. With the army's protection, they come
00:08:35and don't fall short of their rights.
00:08:39the army, and he is in our area, and in Area
00:08:43A, the right is with the settler,
00:08:46no matter what, and he is in Area A, where he is not allowed to be, even without
00:08:50coordination, the settler does not enter residential areas
00:08:53like this. And the western side of the Jericho area, these
00:08:56hills overlooking the Jericho area, this cluster, they knew
00:09:00that this is the only cluster overlooking Jericho. If this cluster leaves
00:09:04the mountain area, they know that this area will be empty
00:09:07for the settlers and their shepherds.
00:09:11So we, in this western area of Aqabat al-Rumman,
00:09:15God willing, are staying here, firmly rooted
00:09:18by conviction, not just because it's our land and we are living
00:09:22on it. We will not leave it until death, God
00:09:26willing. Yes. You speak the language
00:09:28of steadfastness, and this is what we are betting on.
00:09:31Regarding the residents of this area,
00:09:35how is this language
00:09:39this spirit instilled in your children? Today, they live a very difficult life.
00:09:43Their access to schools is difficult. Even
00:09:46playing is unsafe in that
00:09:50children about this to instill steadfastness in their hearts?
00:09:54First of all, thank God, the children have some awareness.
00:09:58They have some awareness, but when children see the suffering,
00:10:01we instill in them that no matter what,
00:10:05this is our land, and everything has a price. Yes. There's nothing
00:10:08without a price, as the late President
00:10:12Yasser Arafat, may God have mercy on him,
00:10:15said, "O mountain, no wind can shake you." And these
00:10:18children, we teach them with us the love of the homeland and the love
00:10:22of the land, no matter what the sacrifices. We will sacrifice so that we remain
00:10:26here. As for the children,
00:10:29they are completely deprived of their right to childhood. No playing or
00:10:32anything. Even going to school and coming back is not
00:10:36simple. Our schools are about 4 kilometers away from us.
00:10:404 to 5 kilometers between girls' schools, children, and kindergartens.
00:10:44Every day, every day, they go up and down. It's not
00:10:47easy. So we are talking about a significant
00:10:50number, about 50 children. How do they spend
00:10:54their time inside the cluster, while it is isolated from the surrounding area,
00:10:58and closed off to them? It is closed
00:11:01off to them. Thank God, it's something imposed on them,
00:11:05and they adapt
00:11:07to it, thank God. They got used to it because the harassments
00:11:11against us are not just during the war and with the gate.
00:11:14The gate made things worse, as they say.
00:11:18But we have been facing harassment before, saying that the road
00:11:22that goes up is a "C road", a military road.
00:11:26From Area A, they enter and call it a military road,
00:11:29even though I attended a court hearing in Ofra and they
00:11:33told us that as a cluster, we are fine,
00:11:36but the road remained, and our children cannot reach it.
00:11:39So they got used to this, that they
00:11:43are sacrificing to stay with us, because
00:11:46of course, without our children, we can't. Our children must be living
00:11:50with us, and God Almighty will not let us down.
00:11:54For all the Palestinian people. Yes.
00:11:57Today, your message is certainly a message
00:12:00of steadfastness in these circumstances. What do you want to talk
00:12:03about so that people know more about this cluster and about
00:12:07your suffering in this cluster? Yes.
00:12:11Regarding the cluster, we ask
00:12:15some organizations
00:12:18that have influence to help us in this
00:12:22Like electricity, water, and roads. These are basic things
00:12:26and within reach.
00:12:30I mean, when we talk about a road from Area A to Area
00:12:33A, and it's almost certain that
00:12:37organizations
00:12:40road, they help us so that we don't have to go through Area
00:12:44C and face a gate or anything else. And
00:12:48for steadfastness in this area, there must be electricity and there must be
00:12:54I mean, it's not right that Duyuk is only
00:12:58about a kilometer and a half away from us, and we have no
00:13:01drinking water. I mean, the least
00:13:04matter? They must follow up with us. We have knocked on all
00:13:07doors, and God willing, relief will come soon, God
00:13:11willing. However, we continue
00:13:16cluster, especially in light of the settlement expansion. Next
00:13:20to you, there is a settlement that has been in a constant state
00:13:23of expansion for years, but you are even prevented
00:13:26from expanding or extending in your area. Tell us about
00:13:30this settlement
00:13:33the residents. The settlement
00:13:37is on the lands of Ain Duyuk, near Ain
00:13:40Duyuk, known as Mevo'ot. This settlement
00:13:44has been there for about 10-15
00:13:47years. We were in the cluster before this settlement, yes.
00:13:51The settlement used to have about four or five houses.
00:13:55Today, it probably has 70 houses, and God knows
00:13:59how many people live there. But I wonder when
00:14:02a settlement like this has a thousand dunams confiscated,
00:14:06a thousand dunams from our lands, and all
00:14:08services are available to them, from electricity, water, security,
00:14:12while we, a cluster where about
00:14:1624 to 30 houses live, water has
00:14:19not reached us. This affects our morale a bit, but
00:14:22thank God, this does not allow
00:14:28the land. The Mevo'ot settlement
00:14:31used to be before the war, they didn't interfere, but
00:14:34after the war, they started
00:14:37the road, stopping us,
00:14:40the day. I saw them. The settlers came
00:14:44and raided us and searched the houses. Settlers came with
00:14:47the army. What business does a settler have to come and search? If
00:14:51it were the army, it's fine. After that, any
00:14:54expansion. This settlement is open. A settlement has no
00:14:57boundaries. This settlement's boundaries are to swallow the entire city of Jericho
00:15:01and all settlements like this, just as their
00:15:04extremist government's policy is that
00:15:07they want neither the West Bank nor Gaza. The same applies to
00:15:10these settlements that are placed in the West Bank. They have
00:15:14ambitions to leave no inch for Palestinians. And now
00:15:17their goal is to pump settlers into other areas.
00:15:21I mean, we are talking about the area where you live.
00:15:25On one side, there is a settlement, and on the other sides, there are
00:15:28settlement outposts. Settlers recently came and
00:15:32stayed in this area. Tell us about them as well. Of course, this
00:15:36settlement
00:15:43of what they call "hill thieves" was placed on our western side from us,
00:15:46and they confronted us several times.
00:15:50The terrain of our country is a bit rough, mountains and such.
00:15:54So they moved him a bit further away, they didn't keep him near us.
00:15:57But at a distance of three or four kilometers from me, a shepherd
00:16:01comes to us to harass us, so that we
00:16:06the army, and it becomes
00:16:08they say, "We don't want problems," but the settlers
00:16:12deliberately come to Bedouin clusters
00:16:15everywhere, especially like our Aqabat
00:16:18al-Rumman, so that they can open the door to problems
00:16:22and get the army involved with us, so it becomes
00:16:25either an arrest or beating. They think that
00:16:29this will make us leave the Aqabat al-Rumman cluster. And this
00:16:32is far, far from them. God willing, we will remain
00:16:36in Aqabat until God Almighty
00:16:39inherits the earth and all that is on it. Yes.
00:16:43In conclusion, we appreciate your efforts and steadfastness in this
00:16:46area, Mr. Abdel Nasser, and this is what we are banking on in these areas.
00:16:52the Jordan Valley and in the mountainous area we talked about. In any case,
00:16:56thank you for this message you delivered.
00:16:59So, dear viewers, we were with you from the Aqabat
00:17:02al-Rumman cluster in the western part of Jericho Governorate, which is considered
00:17:06somewhat isolated from the center of the governorate and surrounded
00:17:09by settlements, and therefore its residents face countless
00:17:13challenges. This episode
00:17:17watching, and goodbye.
00:18:28Look at how many thousands of trees they bulldozed in the land.
00:18:31Why? What did the tree do?
00:18:34What did the tree do, for what?
00:18:49We are on this land, and we never leave it. We always used to plant it,
00:18:52and as you can see,
00:18:56work. I mean, we are rooted in this land, our roots
00:19:00are deeply embedded to the bottom
00:19:02of the earth.
00:19:17The settlement started here about a year and a half ago.
00:19:21They confiscated about 50% or more of Raba's lands, especially
00:19:25the southeastern, eastern, and northeastern
00:19:29areas.
00:19:46citizens constantly
00:19:49and continuously. The settlers' goal in these attacks
00:19:53is to steal sheep and prevent people from going to their land.
00:21:50Our people are, of course, afraid.
00:21:54I mean, the incident that happened yesterday was that about
00:21:57eight houses in the village were burned, and cars were also burned.
00:22:41the mountain, at
00:22:44the settlers' place up there. Over 200 settlers suddenly came down,
00:22:51the village and started looking for Mtar's house, looking for a car,
00:22:54looking for anything to burn.
00:24:14A new episode of Press Pens. Welcome,
00:24:17dear viewers, to the headlines of articles. In Press Pens,
00:24:21from The Guardian newspaper, "Nasa's
00:24:24Persecuted Directors: Journalism is Not Treason."
00:24:27From Al Khaleej newspaper, "A Test
00:24:30Renewed for the United Nations."
00:24:33Locally, from Al-Ayyam, "Optimism of Will, Even
00:24:37if the Pessimists are Many." Let's begin, dear viewers, directly
00:24:41with Press Pens from international
00:24:44newspapers and websites, from The Guardian newspaper. In
00:24:47the newspaper's editorial, titled
00:24:50"Nasa's Persecuted Directors:
00:24:54Journalism is Not Treason," the editorial
00:24:58highlighted what the entire film
00:25:01crew is subjected to. The Guardian begins
00:25:05by stating that politicians who
00:25:08threaten filmmakers instead of investigating
00:25:11military crimes
00:25:14show strength, but rather reveal
00:25:17a leadership intimidated by evidence. When
00:25:20politicians and military leaders in Israel and a large part of
00:25:24the media seek to discredit
00:25:27a documentary film
00:25:31likely not seen, almost none
00:25:34of them. The Committee to Protect Journalists and ten other organizations concerned
00:25:38with press freedom warned that Israel
00:25:41should protect its journalists and filmmakers
00:25:45instead of branding them as traitors
00:25:48and making them targets for prosecution
00:25:52and incitement. Nevertheless, Netanyahu exploited this
00:25:55controversy to threaten to revoke the citizenship of those
00:25:59who tarnish the reputation of his soldiers. Instead of investigating
00:26:03crimes, he resorted to punishing those
00:26:06who expose them. The film "Nasa,"
00:26:09dear viewers, which was produced by The Guardian
00:26:12newspaper,
00:26:15examines the artificial intelligence-powered targeting systems
00:26:18used by the occupation army to bomb the Gaza Strip.
00:26:22The film's name is derived from an Israeli
00:26:25military acronym used as a euphemism
00:26:28to refer to
00:26:31collateral damage. The Guardian reported some
00:26:35details about the film, which includes
00:26:38interviews with 24 insiders
00:26:41who preferred to remain anonymous
00:26:45to talk about their roles in these
00:26:49killings. The film's directors, Oscar winners
00:26:52Rachel Zor and Yuval Abraham, face
00:26:55the risk of being stripped of their citizenship
00:26:59on charges of treason. The acronym
00:27:02"Nasa" transforms the possibility of
00:27:06casualties into a mere number associated
00:27:09with each target. By the time
00:27:12the operator agreed to carry out
00:27:15the strike, ethical considerations would have
00:27:19faded and disappeared up
00:27:22the chain of command.
00:27:25Also, according to interviews in
00:27:28the film "Nasa" and according to military sources of the occupation,
00:27:32for many of them, the feeling
00:27:36of remorse does not seem to be the motive behind their testimony. Some
00:27:40feel proud of what they did, as one
00:27:43of them recalls the insane pleasure accompanying
00:27:47the planning of air raids in Gaza. More importantly,
00:27:50some soldiers describe how the occupation
00:27:53army accepts large
00:27:57casualties as a price for killing
00:28:01only one person. Thus, it turns into
00:28:04a license for mass murder. The Guardian
00:28:08also points out, dear viewers, in its editorial, to the Israeli
00:28:12election campaign that was shamefully
00:28:16exploited, according to The Guardian newspaper,
00:28:19by many
00:28:21Israelis
00:28:24in an attempt to outbid
00:28:27each other in
00:28:30tendencies. Through confirmed information, the occupation army
00:28:34targeted the film's directors, as Israel seeks
00:28:38to make them an example for others.
00:28:41Their families are being targeted with threats from
00:28:44far-right activists. If the filmmakers returned
00:28:48to Israel now, their lives would be in
00:28:52real danger.
00:28:55The Guardian. Let's move on, dear viewers, to
00:28:58the Arab press.
00:29:02In a similar context, also from The Guardian's
00:29:05editorial, in the editorial of Al-Quds
00:29:08Al-Arabi newspaper, but regarding
00:29:12Macklemore, titled, "How an American Singer
00:29:16Dismantled the Claim of Neutrality on
00:29:18Palestine." About two weeks ago, American rapper
00:29:22Benjamin Haggerty, globally known
00:29:25as Macklemore, was just a guest artist on
00:29:29an American tour by the British artist
00:29:33of Irish descent, Ed Sheeran. During his appearance
00:29:36in New Jersey, Macklemore took to the stage
00:29:39and chanted, "Free Palestine!"
00:29:42Then he sang "Hind's Hall," in reference
00:29:46to a university hall at Columbia University that protesters
00:29:50against the genocide in Gaza occupied and renamed
00:29:53after the martyred Palestinian child, Hind Rajab.
00:29:56Days after this performance, venue owners,
00:30:00led by billionaire
00:30:02Robert Kraft, objected to his participation in the tour.
00:30:06Organizers said his presence threatened the cancellation
00:30:09of concerts that attract hundreds of thousands. Sheeran
00:30:12justified it by saying it was not his decision, but he insisted
00:30:16on keeping his concert a space away from politics.
00:30:20The irony is that the attempt to keep politics off
00:30:23the stage ended with it entering
00:30:26through its widest doors in response to
00:30:29his exclusion from the tour. And Al-Quds
00:30:33Al-Arabi newspaper,
00:30:35in response
00:30:38to his exclusion from
00:30:41of Dearborn, USA, offered Macklemore to hold
00:30:44a free concert. Then the withdrawals of the remaining
00:30:48participating artists followed: Aaron Roy, Lukas Graham,
00:30:51Finneas, and the band PVRIS.
00:30:54When the singer Pink took an opposing
00:30:57stance, tens of thousands signed
00:31:00a petition demanding her removal from her role as a UNICEF
00:31:04ambassador. After Macklemore donated a million
00:31:07dollars to Palestinian relief
00:31:10organizations, Kraft and Sheeran also pledged
00:31:13four million dollars
00:31:17for Palestinian humanitarian aid. Children's star
00:31:21Maisie
00:31:23Peters announced that she would donate
00:31:27the same amount as Macklemore. Thus, closing
00:31:30a platform to political to Palestinians
00:31:34did not silence the discussion, but rather increased
00:31:38the possibility of it being raised on
00:31:41other platforms. This coincided with a similar event
00:31:44in cinema, according to Al-Quds Al-Arabi, after the film "Nasa,"
00:31:47which presents testimonies of soldiers about the mechanisms of targeting
00:31:51Palestinians in Gaza, sparked a hysterical storm
00:31:54against the directors inside Israel.
00:31:58After winning the Jury Prize at the Venice
00:32:01Film Festival, the film caused a shock
00:32:05that forced
00:32:08the Israeli society to talk
00:32:12denial and neglect. Thus, the attempt
00:32:15to delegitimize the film made
00:32:19its subject more present. The newspaper also
00:32:22indicates that all this coincided with Ireland's
00:32:25announcement of its refusal to participate in the Eurovision
00:32:282007 contest and not to broadcast
00:32:32the contest for the second year in a row
00:32:35due to Israel's continued participation
00:32:38and its responsibility for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Four
00:32:42other countries had previously boycotted
00:32:45the 2026 edition,
00:32:48while the Dutch broadcasting corporation
00:32:50said that the contest
00:32:56claim to be a neutral platform,
00:32:59which reinforces the reality that Palestine has become a global
00:33:03focal point and a political, cultural,
00:33:06and social identity
00:33:09card that divides parties and governments
00:33:12worldwide, and is also strongly reflected
00:33:15within music, cinema, and media, between artists
00:33:19and money owners and venues, as in Macklemore's case,
00:33:22and between the broadcasting corporation and its union,
00:33:26as in Eurovision's case. After three years of the
00:33:29genocide war in Gaza and ethnic cleansing and the attacks
00:33:34West Bank, the
00:33:37political and cultural battle moved from the issue of Palestine
00:33:40to the basic axioms, including
00:33:43the question of who has the right to determine what can be said and where.
00:33:49question by force creates a mechanism
00:33:52capable of producing the opposite
00:33:56Al-Quds Al-Arabi. Let's move to Al-Khaleej newspaper,
00:34:00and on another matter titled "A Renewed Test
00:34:03for the United Nations." In the newspaper's
00:34:06editorial, it states: With the arrival of delegations from countries
00:34:10participating in the 71st session
00:34:13of the General Assembly at the United Nations headquarters in
00:34:17New York, attention is drawn amidst a charged diplomatic
00:34:21atmosphere and rising fears of the international
00:34:26division, while the international
00:34:31complex crises that no longer
00:34:34tolerate evasion and the language of deals. Al-Khaleej
00:34:38newspaper adds in this context that
00:34:41do not represent a ceremonial
00:34:45season. They are a real test of the ability
00:34:48of major and developing powers alike
00:34:52to overcome sharp polarization
00:34:56and revive the concept of multilateral action under
00:34:59the umbrella of the United Nations, whose credibility
00:35:02many believe is on the line.
00:35:05Its Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, admits that it
00:35:09faces a state of near-total paralysis and geopolitical
00:35:13stagnation that hinders its ability to resolve
00:35:17conflicts and perform its duties in maintaining international
00:35:20peace and security, and also
00:35:23protecting human laws and conventions, which threatens
00:35:26to turn the international arena into a political jungle
00:35:29where states do as they please and ignore
00:35:33UN principles. The newspaper
00:35:36also believes that traditional diplomatic deterrence
00:35:39tools have eroded, and that
00:35:43the UN Charter is now facing new
00:35:47power balances. The example here is evident in the ongoing historical
00:35:50tragedy in Palestine, whether in the Gaza
00:35:54Strip, which has been transformed by the Israeli aggression
00:35:57into mere rubble and an uninhabitable place,
00:36:01or the West Bank, which is being devoured
00:36:04by accelerating settlement and policies of land
00:36:07annexation and displacement of citizens, all under the watchful
00:36:11eye of an international community that is content with statements of concern
00:36:15and condemnation without any practical
00:36:18measures. We also continue, Arab
00:36:22press, but from the columns of the
00:36:25Cairo with Najwa Younis. Najwa, welcome.
00:36:29Welcome, Heba, and all our viewers. Let's quickly start with Al-Akhbar
00:36:33newspaper and an article by Rajab Al-Banna, "Palestinian
00:36:36presence does not need a visa." The best
00:36:39response to the provocative American decision to prevent the Palestinian
00:36:43President and senior officials in the Palestine Liberation
00:36:46Organization from participating in the extraordinary session of the United
00:36:50Nations came from the heart of the international organization itself
00:36:53with a resolution by its General Assembly, which includes
00:36:57all member states, condemning the American decision
00:37:00and allowing the Palestinian
00:37:03the meetings via a recorded speech,
00:37:06and pointing to the clear and condemned American violation
00:37:09of the Headquarters Agreement, which obligates America
00:37:13to facilitate the entry of representatives of member states, protect them,
00:37:16and enable them to participate in the work of the United
00:37:19Nations. We have reached, Heba, Al-Ahram newspaper, and we chose
00:37:23an article by Dr. Sobhi Oseila, "Silent
00:37:28title, he wrote:
00:37:32the West Bank, former Prime Minister Muhammad
00:37:35Shtayyeh said that those measures are considered a gradual,
00:37:39silent annexation of the West Bank. Israel's ideas
00:37:42and attempts to annex the West Bank and change
00:37:45its identity through settlement and settlers have been ongoing
00:37:48for years, but they used to provoke many
00:37:52reactions internally and externally, which would at least
00:37:56slow down the pace of that process. During the last
00:37:59three years, those measures increased and their
00:38:03intensity and danger increased without provoking the same reaction.
00:38:06The developments of the Gaza war took all the attention, which
00:38:10means that Israel fully exploited that war and then
00:38:14the regional tension resulting from the American-Israeli war on
00:38:18Iran to do what it is doing away from
00:38:21the spotlight. We are still with Al-Ahram newspaper, Heba, and an article
00:38:25by Muhammad Salmawi: "The Power of the Boycott
00:38:28Weapon." For all the defeatists specializing in demoralizing
00:38:31spirits, and who whenever we call for boycotting
00:38:35the products of international companies supporting Israel and the war of annihilation it
00:38:39is waging in Gaza and the West Bank, they say there
00:38:42is no benefit, confirming that the boycott policy is
00:38:45outdated and that it is a short-sighted
00:38:48policy and does not affect those international companies with huge
00:38:52budgets. Rather, these people even claim that
00:38:55the boycott harms
00:38:58its owners more than it harms the boycotted companies. For all
00:39:01these people, Adidas, the international company, recently
00:39:04proved to the whole world that the boycott is effective
00:39:08and that it is capable of changing the decisions
00:39:10of those companies. Adidas recently faced a widespread
00:39:14boycott campaign, about which I wrote
00:39:17week, because it chose an Israeli
00:39:21soldier with an amputated leg to be the face of its
00:39:24advertisement for new shoes with one shoe for amputees.
00:39:27This sparked international outrage, which resulted
00:39:30in a boycott campaign against the company's products,
00:39:34which is known for its support for Israel, and which ignored
00:39:38of victims of this soldier, whose limbs were
00:39:42amputated because of the brutal war waged by him and others
00:39:46against Palestinians. Our tour, Heba, among the most prominent
00:39:49articles in Egyptian newspapers has ended. Thank you, Heba,
00:39:53and thank you to all our viewers. The microphone
00:39:55turns back to you.
00:39:58Thank you, Najwa, who was with us from Cairo. We move
00:40:01directly to Amman with Ahmed Badran. Ahmed, welcome.
00:40:05بك
00:40:07Yes, Heba, welcome and welcome to the viewers to this tour, which we start
00:40:11from Al-Dustour newspaper with an article by writer Sir Al-Qudwa under
00:40:14the title "Displacement of Palestinians, an announced
00:40:17policy of the occupation government." We read
00:40:20in it: "Those statements and inflammatory proposals
00:40:23represent a flagrant violation of the principles of international
00:40:26law, including international humanitarian law, and a direct
00:40:30threat to the legitimate and inalienable rights
00:40:34of the Palestinian people. In light of this, the complete and absolute
00:40:37Arab and international rejection and condemnation
00:40:41of all attempts or plans aimed
00:40:44at displacing the Palestinian people under any name
00:40:47or pretext must be reaffirmed, as this constitutes a direct challenge
00:40:51to international efforts to achieve peace, and at
00:40:54the forefront of them is the comprehensive plan of US President Donald
00:40:58Trump to end the conflict in Gaza, including
00:41:02its categorical rejection of forced displacement. It also
00:41:07that would undermine the prospects for stability in the region, especially in light
00:41:10of the dangerous consequences of transforming calls for forced
00:41:13displacement into an announced policy or practical
00:41:17measures aimed at uprooting
00:41:19their land. We remain in Al-Dustour with an article by writer Nevin
00:41:23Abdel Hadi under the title "A Royal Tour, a Distinctive Mark
00:41:27in a Distinctive Phase." We read in it: "Palestine
00:41:31was present in His Majesty's discussions in France and the Czech Republic to a great
00:41:34extent, as His Majesty expressed Jordan's rejection of the continued
00:41:37settlement expansion and escalating settler violence
00:41:40and forced displacement and attempts to impose
00:41:44a new reality, which collectively constitute a direct
00:41:47threat to regional security. His Majesty reaffirmed
00:41:50Jordan's firm stance rejecting any attempts
00:41:53to displace Palestinians from Gaza or the West
00:41:56Bank. He also called on the international community to act
00:42:00to prevent any attempts to change the historical
00:42:03and legal status quo in the Islamic and Christian holy places
00:42:06in Jerusalem, reiterating the need to take practical
00:42:10steps according to a clear timetable to establish an independent
00:42:13Palestinian state with sovereignty on the June
00:42:164, 1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its
00:42:20capital. With this article, we conclude this tour.
00:42:24Back to you, Heba. Thank you, Ahmed, who was with
00:42:28us from Amman regarding what was reported by the Jordanian
00:42:31newspapers. From there, we move to the local press from Al-Hayat
00:42:34Al-Jadida, written by the Editor-in-Chief, "Without
00:42:38any Visa." He begins by asking: Who
00:42:42is the party that is taking measures that undermine
00:42:47the Middle East, so that they are prevented from entering
00:42:50New York to participate in the meetings of the General Assembly
00:42:54of the United Nations? Is it
00:42:58cease to oppose wars and has nothing
00:43:01of a military arsenal and seeks nothing but
00:43:05peace? Or is it Israel, which lives
00:43:08realistically and practically in
00:43:12never ends and does not reap anything
00:43:15but the actions of the racist bulldozer, the bulldozer of
00:43:18expansionist occupation and condemned
00:43:21and rejected international
00:43:24settlement? This is not a question as much
00:43:28as it is an invitation to the meaning of strangeness. According
00:43:31to the Editor-in-Chief, it is absolutely certain that the one who undermines
00:43:35the prospects of peace until now is no other than the owner
00:43:38of the tank with his he is allowed, despite being wanted
00:43:42by international justice, to ascend the platform of the United
00:43:47who condemns war and opposes terrorism
00:43:50is prevented from ascending this platform.
00:43:54No party is more keen on promoting
00:43:57peace than Palestine with its message
00:44:01of peace, and the whole world knows
00:44:04that President Abu Mazen, President of the State
00:44:08of Palestine, is the first man of peace in this volatile East.
00:44:10That is why the international community rushed to grant him a place
00:44:14on the platform of this international organization,
00:44:16bypassing the ban, to speak the word
00:44:19of tormented Palestine, which has been suffering for more than
00:44:2370 years, and calling for the salvation of the human
00:44:27through its salvation from occupation and gaining
00:44:32and independence. From Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, we move
00:44:35to Al-Ayyam newspaper.
00:44:37The article is titled "Optimism of Will, even
00:44:43This article by writer Tahseen Yaqin begins by saying
00:44:46that the emergence of humanitarian Palestine into the international
00:44:50arena will change the course of history and will be
00:44:54the path to national liberation and stopping the plundering of resources
00:44:57and the policy of humiliation. Thus,
00:45:00we must remove obstacles and confront
00:45:03internal and external challenges. Anyone who
00:45:06rejects the humanitarian solution to the conflict here is
00:45:10simply someone with a greedy motive that he wants to achieve
00:45:14by prolonging the conflict. Let us consider the day
00:45:17after the Palestinian issue is resolved fairly,
00:45:20as the writer proposes, which ensures the sustainability
00:45:26phenomena will be affected
00:45:29and disappear. There will be no
00:45:33deadly weapon, nor for accepting the presence
00:45:36of military bases that fuel conflicts and do not end them.
00:45:40And truly, the revolutionary, holding a rifle in one hand
00:45:43and an olive branch in the other, said: "War begins in
00:45:47Palestine, and peace begins from
00:45:50Palestine." This was the conclusion, viewers, in Al-Ayyam
00:45:53newspaper. We are with the caricature in the press columns.
00:46:12In conclusion, viewers, thank you for your kind attention.
00:46:16And goodbye.
00:47:19It was an aggressive tour because they
00:47:23the houses, and a few days ago they also
00:47:26burned a house in the village belonging to citizen
00:47:30Suhaib Radwan
00:47:32Ramadan.
00:47:41The attack occurred in the area we see behind us.
00:47:45The shooting led to four martyrs and four
00:47:48wounded.
00:49:05They are trying to appease the settlers. Of course,
00:49:08the army is conducting an arrest campaign. All
00:49:11those arrested have nothing
00:49:14last week, except that it is only an expression
00:49:18of the resentment that exists among Israelis,
00:49:22and part of it is a punishment for the citizens and families.
00:50:19Look at the thousands of trees that they bulldozed. Why
00:50:23is the land, what is the fault of the tree? What
00:50:26is the fault of the tree, for what?
00:50:40We are in this land, and we always cultivate it. As you can see,
00:50:44we work on it every year.
00:50:47means that we are rooted in this land, our roots
00:50:51are deeply embedded. I mean, I walked almost 5
00:51:09kilometers to get 15 loaves of bread
00:51:12for one person. We hope that the bakeries will open
00:51:16and all this will be resolved and normal life will return
00:51:19to Gaza. So we are working with very
00:51:31limited capabilities, and there are also things
00:51:35missing that we cannot provide. They are available, but there are no spare
00:51:38parts for this machinery. It is working,
00:51:42how can I tell you, with non-original
00:51:45motors and belts. We are patching it up so that we can work because
00:51:49everything we have is dilapidated, and we are trying to manage
00:51:52and be able to live and defy life's circumstances.
00:53:29This is the six o'clock news from Palestine Television.
00:53:33We begin with the headlines.
00:53:36A young man martyred by occupation bullets, and his body was detained
00:53:40near the tourist village of Haddad east
00:53:42of Jenin.
00:53:49Casualties due to shelling and gunfire on the Gaza Strip
00:53:53coinciding with widespread
00:53:55destruction operations.
