1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:06,359
hey GE can you tell us why you as nonp

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,840
Palestinian why you care so much about

3
00:00:06,359 --> 00:00:10,840
Palestine and why people have to care

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:13,040
about Palestine well I spoke in

5
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:16,920
Parliament two days ago to a packed

6
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:20,039
session on Palestine a small country uh

7
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,279
maybe 11 million people quite far away

8
00:00:20,039 --> 00:00:24,800
from us but the parliament committee

9
00:00:22,279 --> 00:00:26,560
room was completely jam-packed this

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,000
proves that Palestine is an

11
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,279
international issue of great moment for

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,399
everybody when I started in this cause

13
00:00:32,279 --> 00:00:35,559
in

14
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:37,520
1975 you could have fitted all the

15
00:00:35,559 --> 00:00:40,559
supporters of the Palestinians into this

16
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:44,320
space and had room for several elephants

17
00:00:40,559 --> 00:00:46,360
in the corner uh but now everybody knows

18
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,680
that Palestine is the key it is the

19
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,719
heart of the matter it is the heart of

20
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,359
the confrontation between the world

21
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:56,399
between the Muslim world and the

22
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:58,120
non-muslim world and if we don't achieve

23
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:00,559
Justice for the Palestinians there will

24
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:03,519
be no peace no justice no peace it's a

25
00:01:00,559 --> 00:01:06,479
very simple equation uh and if there's

26
00:01:03,519 --> 00:01:08,200
no justice no peace in the Middle East

27
00:01:06,479 --> 00:01:10,360
there'll be no justice and no peace in

28
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,799
the world as a whole so it's for the

29
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,560
whole world it's not just about

30
00:01:11,799 --> 00:01:16,799
Palestine no uh it's of course of a

31
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:19,960
special importance to religious

32
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:23,320
Believers uh but it is important also to

33
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:25,799
those who hate aparte to those who hate

34
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:28,040
uh colonialism to those who hate

35
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:29,320
Injustice and that's a lot of people in

36
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,320
the world you add the religious

37
00:01:29,320 --> 00:01:33,759

38
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:35,200
vast majority of people in the world and

39
00:01:33,759 --> 00:01:37,799

43
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,560
