Award-winning journalist Arwa Damon has just returned from a humanitarian trip to Gaza in her capacity as the founder of INARA, the International Network for Aid Relief and Assistance, a nonprofit currently providing medical and mental healthcare to children. Damon describes the overwhelming need for aid under Israel's siege of the territory. "Nothing goes in and out of Gaza without Israel's approval. That includes aid, and that includes people," she says, calling the Israeli military's rules for what is allowed in "illogical" and arbitrary. "The zone needs to be flooded, not only with aid … but also with humanitarian workers," concludes Damon. We also discuss the mental health crisis gripping the population, U.S. military assistance to Israel and how anti-Arab racism and fearmongering in Western media coverage has and hasn't changed in the post-9/11 era.

If you're a US citizen, dont forget that your tax dollars paid for this.
Taxes money are not enough they print paper money as much they want unless world recognize that USA intervention will continue
All of American politics(98% Republican and 89% democrats are brought , owned and directed by the Zionist lobby
Palestinians played the world for decades by taking their money. How can someone be born a refugee
Its sickening and infuriating
Its nice that at least some of my taxes are going to a good cause.
Free America from AIPAC!
Not happening your USA have been hijacked by the Zionist Elite rulers
AIPAC critics have stated it acts as an agent of the Israeli government with a "stranglehold" on the United States Congress with its power and influence
America doesn't want to be free from Apac
Stop the greed and the power hungry madness
Leaders in Gaza promised to destroy & promised war, they should have elected people that promised peace instead. You get what you voted for
The country that commemorates a holocaust... now committing a holocaust. How disgustingly ironic.
The Palestinians are getting the war that they wanted.
Facts
@@brunoantony9257 why don't you tell us what it is since you were obviously one of those affected?
Yes, its a Holocaust. But the Palestinians had nothing to do with Hitler's Holocaust! It's an immense disgrace for Germany that they're delivering weapon's, even phosphate bombs! The export on weapons have increased since October 2023. for 10 times than ever before!!!
@@brunoantony9257 The very word 'holocaust' means 'destruction by fire', pretty apt description for what Israel is currently doing.
Shame on US leaders.
Mind Begs the Question:
- Pledging unconditional support
- To a State whose policies are
- Starvation,Death Camps,Pogroms,Gas Chambers/White Phosphorus,Ethnic Cleansing,etc
- Democratic or Nazi?
Just leaders? These self-righteous Western countries will come to an end in a few short years. It will be in our lifetime
Shame on USA, Canada, Germany, France, UK and all the Muslims countries that have chosen to stand by and watch...
They still hold hostages..
Still hold US hostages, have you heard the hostages names? Does this channel even know their names. Hmmmm! Bit one sided here.
I'm baffled by anyone that tells me this is horrific and then tells me they are voting for Biden... WTF
Trump would do the same thing only worse to ukraine
Is Trump going to help Gaza and stop Israel? No.
Trump woul dbe worse.. he has said as much .. Jared Kushner made a speech about luxury house plots on the gaza coast. I know this is shocking tho.. Biden needs to stop this s**t now
Grow up.
You're an adult. Start behaving like one.
how can this be happening, how can this be happening, innocent civilians, children, women, elderly and innocent men. Dying, starving, being dehumanized, being killed, being tortured, being buried alive in 2024.
War.
@@takeshiwildcardno sorry. Jews and Christians never did anything to anyone until provoked. It's a certain religion.
By hamas attacking innocents in an act of terrorism. Also 2024 doesn't mean anything. You better stop supporting democrats unless you want more of this.
Totally agree! Some humans corrupted with power and money can only care about themselves and their wealth. They are not fully human, they need to be brought to account for their inhuman psychopathic behaviors. We know that and are working on holding them to account.
Thank you for telling the truth. May God keep you safe.❤
Forces of evil wreaking havoc in Gaza. This cannot continue.
This is the biggest injustice I have ever seen. Justice for Palestinians!
This host is from JuiceTeam. Western women and Westerners in general should s.to.p talking about this subject. You're the one that's doing it.
"This is the biggest injustice I have ever seen." Wow, I guess you were born yesterday.
@@nexus-qb3bu ...right, because silence will be more helpful. None should shut up about it until it stops.
UNICEF and EU have spent 2 million euro's building water pipes although out gaza but hum-us dig them up and turns them into rockets
Thousands of construction materials meant for building homes went to hamas undergrounds tunnel network , We also have evidence indicating that UNRWA personnel played a crucial role in the attack on October 7th....
When the top 3 Hamas officals' combined net worth is 11 billions dollar, and all of gaza is overrun by enormous networks of tunnels, while Gazans remain poor and vulnerable, it makes you think if any of the money makes it to the alleged humanitarian causes.
Gaza’s sky is black but Qatar is always sunny
than you are an ignorant person that does not know what the world is going through. from ukrain where over 250000 people dies to syria where bahsar el assad with iran and russia gased burnt and killed as all islamists do over 600000 people in the past 10 years or saudi that killed over 150000 people, most civilians in yeman or what is happaning in niger today where islamists are killing every day cristians all over the country for just be cristians burning entire viliges. the palestinians should thank god its israel and not any other muslim county. they are poor but they are where they are because of hamas not israel. next time choose the path of peace not war and violence.
Please explain how this Israeli state sponsored genocide is any different than the atrocities the Nazis perpetrated against them in their holocaust? My heart breaks for the Palestinian’s holocaust at the hands of those who suffered the same. Is this a case of the abused becoming the abusers?
The behaviour and attitude are so similar , I never thought I’d see the once oppressed Jews act this way . Netanyahu won’t be satisfied till the entire world comes in against Israel ..
Discussing 😢
Please explain why Hamas should be allowed to hide behind civilians(an actual war crime) after a terrrorist attack on Oct 7th and rape and hostage taking?
Zionist and the Red flag party of Germany are the two sides of the same coin.
Bible tells all if any human goes against Israel they are cursed!!! You & me and every Israelite knows 99.99 percent of those in Gaza were celebrating and giving candy and treats out Oct 7th. This is the cursed and evils and those cant obey Gods last stand. Evil God is about stomp out here. You have free will as all do here! This might be aswell carrying over to above realms! NO JOKING MATTER! YA LEAVING HERE ON CURSED SIDE OR BLESSED SIDE? GO AGAINST ISRAEL? DONT KNOW BIBLE?
The entire world needs to see this interview.

I never thought i would live in a time where gross injustices and human rights abuses were 'MONITOR' and ALLOWED to happen from the Sudan, Congo to the Gaza... THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
What about cia atrocities in South America and euro countries in Africa, only now because of left wing media and ngos, cnn is a joke, war is war
How can anyone expect these people to forgive Israel???
No way

Their land is occupied and they were forced out
Every madia company that has censored or been biased in all of this should be brought before the ICC/ICJ. They are all complicit
Unfortunately the ICJ is afraid to make a ruling
and even if they did...there is no one except the Houti's that are willing to help but they don't have any air force or aircraft in which to bomb or drop anything from the sky.
@@yanceyh.1850 yeah, but this has nothing to do with military response. The West is already in massive decline, the rest of the world outside of the West and NATO, would use it to justify sanctions against Israel, and from the media point of view, which is what this is about, it would be nearly impossible for them to continue their actions, especially if they find themselves in the ICC. And then would come the floods of lawsuits by Charities and other NGO's against the media companies in their own countries high courts. It's not that complicated, and it needs to be done. As for the ICJ making a ruling, just listen to the tone and words of their preliminary ruling, and that's without all of the subsequent actions and atrocities, and completely ignoring the courts recommendations as Israel is doing, then bare in mind that the president of the court was American, and she herself was one of the 15/16 that voted for a plausible case for Genocide, but she's now been replaced by a judge from Lebanon, I think it's very unlikely that Israel are going to get away with it this time. There will be Global uproar if they do, and this will hasten the decline of the Western powers geopolitically.
LOL so funny you believe in that court of goofy dressed clowns.
The UN and the ICC have always been a complete joke from the start and a great display of clown-show politics, lies, and deception. I knew that they would not punish or sanction Israel no matter what, even though they're the only country that broke all the Geneva Convention's international humanitarian laws. All South Africa wanted to do when taking them to the ICC was prove to the world their hypocrisy and double standards, and The United States and EU have full control of the ICC decisions. The ICC is designed mostly to sanction third-world countries and any countries that are not puppets of the EU and the U.S. for the exploitation of their natural resources and political manipulation. While leaving war and genocidal criminals such as Netanyahu, Biden, Rishi Sunak, Tony Blair, etc.
Thank you for this reporter with humanity

Stop the genocide
What a lazy word to use, given the numbers of dead people (according to Hamas) and given the intent. I'm sure you don't care at all, that Hamas literally aspires to genocide the Jews in their founding charter? The people of Gaza overwhelmingly support this by the way. How anti-semitic of you?

Palestinians have a right under International Law to resist occupation. That is Hamas in Gaza. Yes, it has committed crimes by attacking civilians. Yet it would take a century to even come close to what Israel has done, what Israel continues to do.

Great job Arwa. Hats off to you. Corrupt MSM will not show her
I met two people who lived during the second world war and could not forgive the Germans. I thought this was incredibly unfair with so much happening since then and Germany a new country, having learned their lessons (not so sure now). I am starting to understand those people. How can we forget of what the Israelis are capable?
once you go back in time, every nation has commited killings. My grandfather was in an Arbeitslager (work camp) in the 40s in Germany. Why should I hate Germans born decades later for that? Some of my closest colleagues are Germans. We need to start forgiving, otherwise the vicious circle will never be broken (as perfectly seen here).

If this does not make us all ashamed I don't know if there is any humanity left
There is an overall logic to what Israel is rejecting to bring into Gaza. Anything that would make it possible for Gazans to continue living there long-term is what they are turning away, because their long-term goal for Palestinians is, and has always been, "Leave or Die".

There can only be a one state solution. The two-state solution was never going to work, since the powers that be always intended for the current situation to exist. A viable and stable Palestine was never an acceptable option within the Zionist two-state model. Anybody who still mentions the two state solution has zero understanding of problem, or understands it well and is using it as an excuse to continue in the destruction of Palestine. Regardless, it will not work. There will be a one state solution eventually, and the Palestinians will finally have the land that is rightfully theirs.
Only if the Israelis and Palestinians are equal partners. No apartheid!
@@coderamen666 How can Palestinians be equal partners with Nazi Zionists? Impossible.

Arwa and Eva Bartlett are real journalists thank you for your bravery and love of humanity ❤❤❤❤
I can't stop crying. My heart is broken this has been allowed to happen.
Her last comments brought me to tears- I was sceptical when I heard she worked for CNN, but her saying we all laugh the same, we all hurt the same, etc.. just gutted me, because there are far too many people who don't recognize that.
War is always hell for all involved. We just don't usually see it up front & personal.
After all there is a good journalist who can tell the truth thank God
Thank you for bring on a wonderful and caring lady.
Arwa Damon may God rewards 🌹
Since Isrrael will not allow journalist into Gaza, we really on other voices. Thanks for this one. The US is complicit in this.
I miss Arwa Damon's reporting. I am glad to see her contribution to Democracy Now.
Excellent reporting from Arwa Damon grounded in frontline experience- Israeli censorship permitting.
A powerful voice with undeniable evidence of the ongoing obscenity.
She's good in her descriptions of the situation, but her simplistic, naive, ignorant analysis of Syria and Russia as dictatorshios and Israel and the US as democracies is devoid of any understanding of imperialist dynamics. It's hard to believe that she's had years of experience in various war zones without trying to understand what was happening geopolitically. Just reading the book by Aaron Loewenstein on what the US gets in return for funding Israel at billions a year over decades. She should have been challenged on her but Democracy Now shares her problems and never presses such guests....The ICJ participants all made airtight cases for the indigenous Palestinians having the exclusive right of self-determination (the right to form/maintain a separate state on their homeland) and the right of self-defense against a violent occupying army yet she and others refer to a colonial-settler apartheid state of Israel as a "democracy"....she's either corrupt or seriously obtuse!
Thank you for this report from Gaza. It’s always eye opening to have somebody on the program returning directly from Gaza. You literally see the horror of the war reflected in their eyes. We are so used to the images, but it’s in fact the story behind that counts.
CNN. Is a bias, unprofessional out let.
They've been exposed as dishonest reporting.
Israel is suffering from an attack by Hamas.
Get honest. Hamas is putting their people in harms way.
This is 1 sided prejudice propaganda.
Arwa Damon is a true journalist. It’s sad there are so few like her left in corporate media.
This is such a crucial, convincing testimony from first hand experience. Greatly appreciate this lady's perspective and feedback. This is truly a level of insanity that is beyond rational comprehension. It's so heartbreaking that this is happening and there's nothing we can do about it.
Thank you Arwa! Good to hear a real human being
How can any human being look at this situation and think for a moment that such misery should be imposed on the indigenous people in order for a colonial project to be established?
Stop Netanyahu now, UNSC, ICJ.
I’m so sick of people calling Israel a Democracy. A Democracy is one that’s elected by the people in Israel, but Palestinians in Israel do not have the right to vote so how is that a Democracy? 🤔
There are 2 million Palestinians living in Israel. They have the right to vote. They have members of the Israeli parliament. They can work in any job. No Arab country gives ANY rights to Jews , most won't even let them live in their country.
See the difference ?
2 million Arab citizens of Israel absolutely have the right to vote and even sit on the Supreme Court.
Palestinians have been offered a country many times, but won't agree to live alongside a Jewish country.
Same old story.
I think that Israelis have been more than reasonable, and have reached a point where all reasonable options have been exhausted.
The Israeli are lied to or chose to favour a biased story. The only agenda that the Zionist has is to have a Jewish state with no Palistinians in the whole of this region. Talk about the West Bank. Israeli are offended when you even call a person a Palistinian or even mention that such a state ever existed. The whole mind set is of ethnic cleansing.
@@georgemetesky5519do you mean the 2 million Arabs who chose to stay in their region, and accept the existence of the state of Israel? Meanwhile, the majority of the 7 million Palestinians who reject the Israeli state are forcibly evicted from their land, or forced to live in "ghetto" areas such as the West Bank and Gaza, and are treated as colonial citizens with all the cruelty and practices of apartheid. Israel is a colonial country disguised as a democracy.
Some thugs come and take your home and "offer" you the beautiful shed in your back yard as home to live in and surely they're kind enough to give you electricity and water whenever they feel like giving you and cut it off if you say you want your house back.
It would be so reasonable eh?
What are we arguing about eh Such wonderful people with wonderful heart you have x
uk should of sent the poor jews to the country wherever you're from they wouldn't have to take anything by force, you Such lovely bunch would've just given all your homes away by yourself and you would've moved to refugee camp. It's a shame uk didn't know about your kindness back then :(
Many of us in the US also cannot comprehend why this cruelty, deprivation, and war crimes are happening while Biden and Blinken look on.
Most of them are descendants of Kazarian mafia; not real j*ws.
Truth is mind blowing.
Real j*wish people do not act like possessed demons.
Because they are recipients of AIPAC funding, Biden has so far received $6m, the highest paid
I feel so terrible for Gaza people. So sorry you are going through this, the USA is sick!!
it's not okay to destroy a child's mind.this is definitely a holocaust situation.
Its a real holocaust.
Amy Goodman. Thank you so much for asking the poignant questions. Thank you for the excellent coverage and prioritizing the important stories of the day. ❤
Unbelievable!
How can anyone in their right mind stand with such wickedness and evil? It boggles the mind.
The true toll could be a hundred thousand or more. Children succumbing to diseases, malnutrition, and lack of clean water are being buried uncounted. Hamas lost the ability to count a long time ago. Those under the rubble were never counted. I have heard from more than one source the toll could reach 200,000 or more when it ends. More than 10% of the population is not inconceivable.
Remember in 2002 the Jenin massacre killed 500 Palestinians, then the Red Cresent counted 22 civillians and 27 combatants , in addition to 23 IDF soldiers.
High casualty estimates based on no facts are generally reduced as facts become available in the case of Palestine. In other conflict zone, such as Yemen, more information leads to increased casualty counts.
Only cowards fear nail clippers!
and kids toys. Teddy bears could be used for nefarious purposes @12:10
I really appreciate Arwa’s work and integrity. 😞🙏
Well said her words are are so descriptive and acculturate I can’t agree more!
A few oligarchs shouldn’t own and control the means of production, distribution and exchange. Workers make the world run, workers should run the world.🇨🇦🇺🇸🌎
Actually inventers make the world run. Workers just replicate what inventors have created. The better robotics get the sooner you will understand that what I am saying is the truth.
It has been tried where 'workers' are in control. It was called the USSR. It failed. Big time. See rule of Lenin and Stalin as to why.
Workers unite! ✊
@@returnofCrusadegood luck feeding yourself in your dream world
Everytime someone believed that literally millions of people were killed off because it "belongs to the state" I saw some crazy person on here saying it's morally wrong to own land wow Y'all are really brainwashed aren't y'all
Respect to this journalist ❤
❤❤❤❤❤ I HOPE MY LORD INVITS BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO ISLAM.
Democracy Now is vital for our understanding of our emerging world. Every voice counts.
The images on TV are nothing like we have seen - ever.That says a lot.
Netanyahu is following through with his campaign pledge to expand and annex Israeli settlements.
Expand illegal take over land he is not in the right to do.Shamefull is the nicest word to use at this stage.Shame on Israel and complicits to le t this go on.SHAME ON YOU.
Israel is their country
Moses lead the Jews to the land of milk & honey.
@@equine2020and a genocide is condoned because of your little "fact?"
@@equine2020"The land of milk and honey" already had almost 2 million Palestinians and a fully functional developed Palestinian community, when the British empire's foreign minister: Stewart Arthur Balfour promised it to Lord Rothschild on 2nd November 1917.
Of course, the British Empire was handsomely paid by Lord Rothschild, but this cannot eliminate the fact that Balfour Declaration was a genocidal greenlight.
@@equine2020And God scattered Israel to every nation on earth for their wickedness and exclusive pride. It was a land based on a conditional promise that they live righteous. They have profaned the name of God by their misdeeds. And when they broke the covenant it was made null and void. That land was taken from them and given to those who will inherit it upon the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Then people of every race, creed, and color can have the knowledge of the love of God.
Thanks for true and honest journalism. Keep it up
