My Lecture on Palestine, Genocide, & the United States

Debunking western propaganda and media whitewashing of the atrocities American tax dollars are funding in Gaza and the West Bank

This week I spoke at the Batavia Public Library on the issue of Palestine. I started my 20 minute remarks with a simple question.

Why is it we never hear media report that in the year prior to 10/7/23, Hamas killed 240 Israeli civilians including 47 children, kidnapped 800 more Israeli children, held 8000 Israelis hostage, and illegally built more than 12,000 homes on Israeli land?

The Answer: Because Hamas did none of those things to Israelis. Instead, the Israeli government did and is doing this to Palestinians. Let’s Address This.

If we are serious about peace, we must be serious about truth and justice. We must recognize the equal humanity of both Jews and Muslims, and we must demand accountability against those who threaten and harm civilian lives.

Especially at a time when this administration is censoring conversations on Palestine, disappearing those who dare to speak up, and terminating employment for those who refuse to remain silent—it is more critical than ever before we unapologetically speak up for human rights and justice.

As a human rights lawyer and a student of international law over the last 15 years, it is both my duty and my moral imperative to speak truthfully about one of the most protracted and devastating crises of our time—the occupation and destruction of Palestine and the genocide of its people. In these remarks, I present a historical timeline of modern Palestine and Israel, a factual record of atrocities, and a legal analysis that demands we recognize the reality on the ground and act in the pursuit of justice and peace.

I hope you watch and share this, and share your questions and comments in the discussion below. You can also watch the video on YouTube here.
