what a disgrace. What an absolute disgrace. Over the last few weeks we have had a campaign,

0:05.2

a vicious campaign of bile hatred and lies directed at those of us who oppose the mass

0:10.8

indiscriminate slaughter of thousands of innocent Palestinians civilians and onslaught

0:15.0

backed by our government and by other Western governments. And I would note by much of the

0:20.3

Western media as well, we were portrayed and are portrayed as dangerous terrorist

0:25.3

extremists as a menace. And we were relentlessly denounced because there is today a national

1:30.0

that her entire career is simply a bellowing hate on a daily basis. This was always outrageous.

1:39.2

I mean, the likes of the Daily Mail pray they don't end up with a riot at the Senataf,
