Transcript

00:00 On the past 25 days, more than 10,000 people were genocided.

00:05 More than 20,000 people were injured and 200,000 buildings have been demolished.

00:14 Why I'm here today is obvious. I'm here today to unify our voices, actually to unify our screams,

00:26 to say enough for the brutal killing and dehumanization of innocent civilians in the

00:31 land of Palestine. Just a reminder for you Mr. al-Denizi, just 10 years ago you were standing

00:40 here with us defending the Palestinian cause. Fast forward to today when you're in power,

00:48 you're standing on the opposite side with blood on your hands.

00:55 Not only on this issue and every other issue, we just keep on creating propaganda trying to

01:01 free Palestine. People are saying protesting is useless. What's the point? You're just standing

01:12 in the middle of the place doing nothing. Why don't you go free Palestine? We are doing what

01:16 we can with our voices. We're trying to be heard. We're trying to let the governments know that we

01:24 are not going to accept this. We're not going to let Palestinians die every day for nothing.

01:31 This is why we're here. If we all didn't know already, 50% of this list are children and women

01:40 which absolutely have no hand in what is going on. They're all innocent.

01:46 Palestine will never die.

01:48 Gaza, Gaza, don't you cry.

01:50 Gaza, Gaza, don't you cry.

01:58 Palestine will never die.

02:00 Palestine will never die.

02:02 Palestine will never die.

02:04 Palestine will never die.

02:06 Palestine will never die.

02:12 Palestine will never die.

02:38 Shame, shame, ALP!

02:42 ALP, you've gone on. You've supported genocide!

02:45 ALP, you've gone on. You've supported genocide!

02:49 Shame, shame, ALP!

02:52 Shame, shame, ALP!

02:55 Shame, shame, ALP!

02:58 Shame, shame, ALP!

03:01 It isn't just about what Israel has done.

03:05 Or any Israeli or Jewish country.

03:09 This is about standing up for the things that are degrading,

03:14 I should say, the things that degrade human beings.

03:17 Things that bring us down instead of lifting us up as human beings.

03:22 It's about standing up for the things that are degrading.
