NO KAMALA WE WONT VOTE FOR GENOCIDE! FREE PALESTINE! Stop underestimating the intelligence of us as inhabitants of this land, this world and this country. Stop slighting the story to fit the narrative of the AIPAC FOREIGN BODY THAT PAID YOU 5MILLION DOLLARS!
Since there are American hostages why America military didn't go into Gaza?
Her son is a member of the Israel Defense Forces yet she has the audacity to call the people who kidnapped him, but not the people who are killing children?
More then 40 thousands have been killed mostly women and childrens humanity stand with PALISTINE 🇯🇴🌹🇯🇴
I bet no Americans want to hear about Palestinians side of stories
I think you forgot to mention the thousands of innocent Palestinian Women, men and children held in Israeli cells for years whose lives are also precious. Also how brutally Palestinians have lost their homes, all their memories and sweet home being stolen by the heartless, criminal settlers.
I want to hear from Palestinian American about what it is like for their families in Gaza.
She just looks so broken, man.
I'm wondering why Palestinian parents who lost thier kids aren't also allowed to give a speech at the DNC?!!!!
DOUBLE STANDARDS .
thay are being used by Hamas supporters.
Imagine you want your family back almost 1 year now and you willing to vote back the same administration that can’t get back your family……..make it make sense
So if this is not a political issue what’re they doing at the dnc of all places?!! Is this for real?!! If the loss of their only child couldn’t, what does it take to open their eyes?!! 😧
FREE THE U.S. FROM AIPAC & ISRAEL'S INTERFERENCE IN U.S. POLITICS! EINSTEIN WARNED THE U.S. ABOUT ZIONISM AND ISRAEL in 1948 in his letter printed in the New York Times on December 4th, 1948 pg. 5, cosigned by other prominent Jews and Jewish scholars of that time. In it he wrote (quote) "Zionism is akin to Nazism". He referred to Israel and its forces as (quote) "terrorists, murderers, misguided, criminals, thieves" and he went on to list supportive reasons for his condemnation. He warned the U.S. against supporting the Israeli state and Zionist project. He went on to almost predict Israel's "calamity". It's a scathing rebuke which the West should have heeded. The source is given, look it up and read Einstein's letter for yourself.
treating israeli hostages like humans and palestenians like numbers this is the root cause of the conflict and they have dehumanized people in gaza againb
Netenyahoo is rejecting a deal , sinwar has accepted a deal long time ago
Let's speak about the over 10,000 Palestinian HOSTAGES in Israeli prisons. Most detained with zero charges and subjected to beatings, torture, rape, humiliation, amputations, and death at the hands of Israel. Who is speaking on their behalf? Who is speaking on behalf of the over 15,000 children assassinated by the IDF or for those that survived with scathing burns and blown off limbs while all of their family members have been murdered? Who is speaking on their behalf? The answer is NO ONE because the DNC refused to allow just one Pro-Palestinian speaker to address the convention. The DNC platform stating that they equate Israeli lives with Palestinian lives as equal is an illusion and a gross hypocrisy,
As sad as it is that their son is still being held by Hamas. It's really sicker that the Democratic national Communists used them in this manner. These people are well-meaning but useful idiots. The DNC doesn't care
It’s sad these parents support genocide and have no care for the 50,000 victims who lost their life nor concern for over 100,000 who are missing.
I stand with Israel and the United States needs to firmly stand with Israel!! Be a leader and always stand up against terrorism!!!
God bless Israel
MOCKINGBIRD PROPAGANDA
The Dim Oh Craps want this terrible situation in Gaza to continue..
SAVE AMERICA THIS NOVEMBER and stop the Democrat puppet regime! Vote for the ONLY candidate PROVEN to work for AMERICA'S INTERESTS and the CITIZENS! Stop foreign interests getting put in front of America's interests!! #TrumpVance2024 is the only vote for a TRUE President that CAN actually have an UNSCRIPTED AND INTELLIGENT CONVERSATION with fellow world leaders!!
#KamalaHarris makes Ol' Clueless Biden look like a genius, smh..
This situation is a Middle East issue.
Let the Middle East deal with it.
Spend US tax dollars in the US on US citizens.
These Democrats don't even believe the hostage situation is real. Biden has done ZERO to get a ceasefire or hostages back. They only think Israel is the bad guy. Just look at all the Democrats protesting their own DNC just outside of it
They spoke because they’re either not bright or they’re being blackmailed.
Why would y'all not do an interview somewhere where you could actually hear what they're saying without hearing all the crap in the background
Of course we have to listen to the parents of 1 of the israeli hostages AGAIN! NO family members of the Palestinians who are being Murdered, Tortured, Burned, Amputated or Starved in Gaza or West Bank.
good to speak at convention and remind what democracy is and shows party is with
No one will do anything for your family, this administration is weak, trump in power and those hostages would be back. Surround Gaza and demand the American hostages back or else. I guarantee you the hostages would have been back by now. Peace is gained by strength not weakness. Wake up!!trump 2024, America and its citizen above all. You mess with them then American messes with you. Simple
Why speak to the disgusting Democrats who hate you?
Trump is the reason making phone calls to delay so not to give Biden the credit 😮 I believe that young lady asking the question knew the answer 😮 👀
Naïf people
TRUMP MAGA 2024
You’re talking to the wrong people!hamas took the hostages not The USA didn’t! Tell the Palestines to release the hostages! These people are clueless on how things work!
I don't know who that lady was in the background speaking on stage, but she's clearly an idiot. Couldn't you have cut her microphone so we could hear this man and his wife a little better?!
God help us…so many stand in need of comfort ❤
Democrate Party has clear ties to Iran and Islamic Terrorist. They are the Trojan horse of our Democracy.
