the most important thing when this
0:02
aggression ends and I hope that is going
0:06
to be very very soon is that we make
0:10
sure that our children uh and the
0:12
horrors they have seen will not turn
0:15
into hate but will turn into love of
0:18
their people of their culture that is
0:21
very tolerant and to be part of our
0:25
Liberation and part of building a state
0:28
that we will be proud of
0:30
in the first couple of days of the
0:32
aggression I lost seven members of my
0:35
extended family my cousin her husband
0:38
her children or you but I assure you
0:40
this is the story of every family in
0:42
Gaza and the wound the wound is huge is
0:47
is huge um it will take us time to uh
0:50
heal these wounds what Israel has has
0:53
done is
0:55
actually creating a deep sky in our
0:59
Humanity as community of Nations because
1:02
Israel has been
1:04
normalizing
1:06
normalizing the mass murder of children
1:09
of women the mass destruction of
1:13
hospitals schools churches
1:17
mosques the starvation we need action we
1:21
need enforcement of laws we need
1:24
sanctions on any party that violate
1:27
international law and Israel is not only
1:29
violating in international law Israel is
1:31
bombing international law they have
1:34
bombed many un premises as you know they
1:37
have killed more un workers in the last
1:40
few weeks than uh uh the sum of un
1:43
workers for so many years and this is a
1:46
test for our International System and
1:49
this is also a test for our Humanity
1:52
because Israel has completely and
1:55
utterly destroyed all the rules we built
1:58
after the second World War
2:00
it's unconscionable that we only want to
2:02
reach or seek to reach poses as the
2:05
Western term is so we pause for a few
2:07
hours or few days uh we provide some
2:10
food and water to our children and then
2:12
they resume killing the children so this
2:14
does not make sense whatsoever we need
2:16
to make sure that this is comprehensive
2:18
and permanent we must really turn this
2:20
tragedy into a momentum for freedom and
2:23
a momentum for peace and a momentum to
2:26
uh uh address the legitimate rights of
2:29
the young people
