Someone shouted at Dave Chappelle during a stand-up comedy show “Shut the F up” when Dave expressed support for Palestine.

Dave Chappelle responded “No, YOU shut the F up. You don’t take 10s of billions from my country to go kill innocent women and children” in front of 22K people.

The crowd started cheering on him, and he then said “Free Palestine”.

A legend.

The Middle East Eye interviewed a US nurse from Brooklyn who went to Gaza, went back to the US, and now wants to go back to Gaza.


"The whole point of me pursuing a career is to use my skills to help our people," Gill, a Brooklyn native of Pakistani-origin told Middle East Eye. "If I can't even do that, then what is the point?"

One day in April, Doctors Against Genocide put out a call for medical volunteers. Gill didn't hesitate and immediately signed up.

"I went to my mom after I signed up. I asked her if she'd be ok if they called me to Gaza," Gill said. "She told me 'It's your duty. You'd have to go and I would never be able to stop you.'"

For a trip that was only meant to last a week, Gill ended up staying in Palestine for nearly a month.

If there's an image that Gill cannot forget, it is the image of children in the hospital. Kids who had made it out of the rubble, but their entire families were gone. Kids with burns upon burns on their tiny lifeless bodies. Parents screaming for their children. "It all doesn't just go away," Gill said.

"You don't go into Gaza without accepting that you could die. Even if you do everything you are supposed to, like the World Central Kitchen staff, you could still be killed," Gill added.

Gill said it is no longer okay to be neutral.
"Our tax dollars are funding this genocide. It's not okay to be neutral. We have to stand up against this. We have to humanise these people. They are just like us. They laugh like us. They eat like us. They breathe like us. They joke like us. We have to help them," Gill said.

"Once you're there, you don't want to leave. You want to stay and help in any way that you can. Leaving was hard. And it's harder here, too. In Palestine, even though I was surrounded by bombs and drones, at least I was there. Over here, all I feel is shame and guilt. I don't want to be here. I want to go back."

🔻[1/2] Major General Yitzhak Barik today (Sunday) sharply criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the heads of the security establishment. In a conversation with Liat Ron, he said that "If Bibi, Galant, Hertzi Halevi and their successors remain in power - the State of Israel will deteriorate to the end of its path. They will bring us down with borrowed grief."

He elaborated: "The collapse of the economy, global boycotts that are now beginning at an accelerated pace, the collapse of society, the collapse of the army and the collapse of all international relations. We are in a war that has no purpose, we cannot defeat Hamas and they are running to prepare themselves for the great war."

On the IDF's progress in the Gaza Strip, he said: "We entered Gaza and occupied 80% of the territory, now we are inside Rafah, but today we have no forces, and they don't always have replacements when they go on a truce. At this time, the Hamas are returning from the tunnels to the places where the IDF left. Our soldiers are being killed for no purpose. This whole process is blowing us up in front of the world."

Since the seventh of October Barik, who was a lone and prominent voice warning against the total war and the readiness of the IDF, has met six times with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. He said of their meetings: "In the meetings before the maneuver, I was able to stop conduct that would have brought a lot of losses to the IDF." said. "I received reports saying that the soldiers entering are not trained, they have no equipment and they need at least two weeks to get organized and enter properly."

According to him, Netanyahu "stopped the move during the conversation with me. I also suggested to him not to go into an attack with Hezbollah, we were not ready, we would have waged an all-out regional war, they would have destroyed our country. So he stopped that too."
