This is on point. I'm Meghna Chuck Rabardi.

Last week we heard from a round table of Jewish Americans

who shared their stories about

Hamas's October 7th attack on Israel

and what impact the conflict is having on them.

Hamas killed more than 1400 people in its attack according to Israeli officials.

In Gaza almost 5,800 people have died so far in Israel's retaliatory bombing,

according to the Hamas-run Health Ministry.

So today, we'll hear from Palestinian Americans.

These are things that the collective Muslim population sees and sees that the world doesn't do

anything about or care about.

And then it makes us feel very abandoned, but when an entire people are oppressed or victimized in so many ways for so long, it's found to happen that certain actions are going to act out.

I do recognize that many of Israel's actions through its 75-year history

are born out of a deep sense of past culture trauma.

Israelis must recognize, though, that they as well have imposed a deep cultural

trauma upon all Palestinians through their ongoing military invasion.

I ask, how can Israelis have been traumatized by their own persecution then go on to

inflict such trauma upon another innocent people the Palestinians?

The solution to end of violence really lands on the Israeli leadership to end the illegal occupation

granting them the ownership and control of land, the dignity of human rights, and the ability to have

political control as well as control of the future of their children and their families.
