Israel’s Cowardice, As Seen From Lebanon, w/ Ghadi Francis 

I could listen to Ghadi all day. Please remember, it’s not just young people protesting. I’m a middle aged Gen X from Australia who has always been involved in the fight for a free Palestine ❤️🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸

A lot of ppl from the US can’t see those videos from Israel. You guys are so important for us to stay informed and educated. Thank you so much! free Palestine! ❤

Thank you Rania and Ghadi. Independent journalists with journalistic integrity are the heroes of our time.

She's SO SANE, SO WELL-SPOKEN. THANK YOU! ❤❤

WOW. Ghadi Francis is electric: fierce, intelligent, uncompromising. An absolutely necessary voice right now. Thank you, Rania.

Well said Ghadi, as a Lebanese woman I concur with you. I am double your age & have been an activist since my youth & it's so uplifting to hear Lebanese journalists speak the truth so eloquently. God bless you ladies & God protect our Lebanon 🇱🇧 ♥️ 🙏

Never heard Francis speak before. She’s amazing. I will be listening to her going forward

Rania two Lebanese fireballs the truth always hurts thanks for top class journalism Norman alwar beautiful Cape Town SA

This is the most uplifting and noble stance imaginable, grounded in history, faith, and the heart. Wow ! Ultimately inspiring and beautiful.

I really love this guest. She is such a real patriot, so well informed.. Please have her on the show again sometime . 👍

Thank you for keeping the faith with the people of Gaza. In our thousands and our millions WE ARE ALL PALESTINIANS

dear rania your not alone and the brave journalist you talk to we never forget we never forgive 🇵🇸

I am a 77 year old Scot and I am Palestinian. I am ashamed of the British hand in the carving up of your land after WWI and the infamous Balfour Declaration which led to the betrayal of the Palestinian people. Free Free Palestine.

Ghadi is not only a beauty, but she's also funny, insightful and a true warrior. Amazing woman ❤😊

As an english man, I am appalled not only by what the IDF are doing but also how much the UK government is involved and how they allow our military to support what is going on. Sometimes I can`t read or look at what is going on because its so upsetting and feel powerless. Its just so heartbreaking.

What an excellent host. I admire her way of thinking and her analysis. She's right,most people are immune to seeing the trauma of Palestine people because they are not humans. I cry every morning while having my blessed breakfast because I imagine all those Palestinians not having anything to we are having all our comforts. I wish there were more people like you guys in the world I admire Lebanese people for their intelligence, kindness, humanity, and above all, being well informed about what's happening around the world.

This woman is fantastic. She makes me want to visit Lebanon. A dream I’ve always had. I hope I get there someday. As a white Australian I grew up with many Lebanese families and they have always treated me like one of their own. Fantastic people 😊

Ghadi is what happens when you combine beauty and brains. Very eloquent and knowledgeable.

You make me so proud of being a Lebanese woman after listening to you both, well spoken, strong, and compassionate. God bless you both and continue your important work 🧿🇱🇧🧿

I love you two! Strong women, standing up for justice

Rania and Ghadi are kicking ass. I love seeing two Arab women of most highest conscience speaking and debating the most important issues of our time.بلاد الشام للابد Watching from Jordan.

Ghadi nailed it right away: "There are people who just don't care." This is what I still cannot understand...how can you see and know about the massacres and dispossession and yet not care?

Free Palestine! Palestine and social media have opened many Americans eyes. We have been fed lies by our government for decades. Now we fight for change. Freedom, healing, peace and restorative justice for Palestinian people!

"The biggest insult to the memory of the Holocaust is not denying it, but using it as an excuse to justify the genocide of the Palestinian people." Norman Finkelstein

You both are so beautiful. Keep up the good work. much love

In love with the ironic laugh when she said "Lebanon". You both are so beautiful and smart! My best friend is Lebanese, another smart beautiful woman ❤ Free Palestine 🇵🇸 from a Romanian woman

Israel and US will always be infamous for this and Irag and Syria.The list is so shameful😢

Ghadi, the magnificent fire of courage and humanity. Keep inspiring beautiful young lady.❤❤

Ghadi Francis is a lady and her religion is humanity 🌹🙏

Listening to this young woman, Ghadi Francis, speak enlightened me as to why Israel targets women, and why the brothers are willing to walk up and hand deliver devices to destroy tanks to defend them. The army that dresses up in women's unmentionables are afraid of women like this.

Watching from the colony of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷💚.

Let’s value these women for their intellect and humanity. We are always falling into the trap of needing to qualify women for their aesthetic value. Are we doing this when a male is objectively attractive….”he’s intelligent AND gorgeous”. We just don’t. Women deserve better.

she has exactly the same reasoning as I have. incredible. I am in awe here

This is my first time hearing Ghadi Francis, she is awesome. Love her analysis and attitude in general. Rania you are pretty cool too! Thank you!

Besides the ethical, knowledgeable, and honest aspect of these two women, there is the fact that they are both exquisitely beautiful. And their passion for justice makes them even more so.

Ghadi, you're very wise, & the world shall be surprised when our bros. and sisters triumph, and beg us to share the story of freedom and justice!

Ms Francis is a good woman, intelligence + beauty + siding with the right cause

Aaaw. Another sanitized comment sections. I wrote such good comments, too. Shame! Oh, well! The host and her magnificent guest really said it all. Thank you!

God bless you, this young lady. And you impressed me just like your sister Rania. Those of you who practice the profession of journalism as it should be will have your names writing in gold when the time comes. The history will not be kind to those in the MSM, parroting lies and propaganda of government across the board.

I was watching the Red Nation Podcast yesterday and they showed a Palestinian man speak at a gathering and he declared solidarity between the indigenous people of Palestine and Turtle Island.

What a treat to have two beautiful middle eastern women. With so much knowledge of their home land. May God protect you from any harm 🙏. Free 🆓 FREE PALESTINE 🌍🕊️💌

Ghadi Francis superstar! Fifth time I see and listen to her and my admiration keeps growing! I agree with every word!

Thank you Rania for your smarts and passion and for your amazing guest

Love you both,history can never be erased,you are so correct in your presentation,very interesting.

Thank you so much Rania and Ghadi ❤🎉 You both are wonderful journalists for standing up for truth and humanity. Free Palestine❤ Please bring on more of Ghadi🎉

Thank you for this excellent conversation, and I will become a member. I imagine that your ancestors are beaming with pride!

A journalist new to me who gives an excellent first impression ❤ Thank you Rania for the introduction 😊

I am from Poland and every time I hear Poland my jeart breaks to pieces. I feel so ashamed and broken. I dont know how to continue my life. 🖤🍉🖤

First time see her in English interview. She is the star girl activist and journalist . She has deep understanding to the struggle issues and on the right side. Thank you both.

I could listern to Ghadi Francis all day ❤❤

Rania, I have started watching every segment you put out, your interviews are always gold. Thank you for your consistent sane voice! I hate being American, only people like you keep me hopeful for future accountability of my country.

Immense respect for Ghadi Francis and Rania Khalek! Lesson #2 from Lebanon! Full support herein!💕☮️

It's been a pleasure watching those fantastic ladies. Very enlightening!

Ooooooohis this the same lady from months ago?? If so I have been waiting for this?? She’s awesome

First time here. I love your show. Very informative and I love your guest. She is realistic about the ME.

Two awesome women.

I'm a Lebanese-Syrian woman, raised in the US. I'm also a long time subscriber to BTN. I want to say, the promise of more of this FANTASTIC conversation finally prompted me to become a paid subscriber. Both of you are incredible. Pan-arab unity, forever.

Ghadi is great.....amazing interview and information ❤

This young lady has a beautiful heart. God bless her. Her message was perfectly said. Thank you. 🙏 Long live Palestine.

Respect to you both!

I truly like these two beautiful ladies. They always bring us solid news.

I always live your show, TODAY, your guest, Ghadi, was on FIRE, her language was excellent, AND her body language was ABSOLUTELY FLUENT.

Rania of all the many excellent interviews you've conducted Ghadi Francis is one of the most intellectual I've seen. She is an exemplar of Arab humanity, learning, history and culture. What a rejoinder to the non history anti-politics barbarians of state Zionism.

Bring her again please, her delivery is always on point!

EXCELLENT REPORTING, VERY EDUCATIONAL !👏👏👏👏👍

It' s not only english or american people who wath this.. I for example am a Belgian man , and I know since long , about the horror for the Palestinians... But it's a fact that lots of people here doesn't seem to carry a lot, due of the lack of fair cover on mainstream media I suppose..

We see you Ghadi and not only by the young courageous students 💚 many citizens from all ages and backgrounds in the west see you and all the people of Palestine and all the people affected by Western hegemony. Thank you again for a great exchange Rania 💜

Pure journalism. Both of you are amazing humans!

I have nothing against Jewishness, just Israel.

I regret condemning the freedom fighters of Oct 7th. Fight the occupiers by any method necessary.

The two ladies on this show are outstanding My best regards to both of you

UK people are with you if not our complicit Government 🇱🇧 ❤🇵🇸♥️🇵🇸♥️

Beautifull human beings, being courageous a true intellectual host and hostess

love from Ireland, you two are Queens!

Well spoken, thank you

Remember George Habbash and other Christian Palestinian Resistance

Heart fluttered and my eyes teared up. ❤️

It gives me hope to see and listen to two such intelligent young women, who really understand what is going on, and aren't afraid to tell the truth ! !

Maybe the iron dome wasn’t made of iron at all😂😂😂😂😂😂

This interview and discussion really got to me. Lot's of learning here; compassion,, facts, conscience,. Every word here is real.

Excellent Program

I weep everyday...i am not numb

Irish/Brit watching in awe from Italy - so glad I just found you 🤗

Truth prevails

Wonderful guest. Watching in Scotland.

Beautiful both of you, very informative, thank you

excellent journalism...truth and justice and humanity

Thank you Rhania and Ghadi, for an incredibly informative and highly enlightening discussion, about a broad range of the problems unfolding across the Middle East today. I think all Westerners ( I am American), and Israeli Zionists and Jews, should become acquainted with the realities on the ground in your region, from the 1800’s to the present day. Having had several courses at University level many years ago, I am fully familiar with the meddling and machinations of the Europeans and eventually Americans, in creating the artificial borders in your region, that resulted in so much chaos, and needless death and destruction over the past 200+ years. The British and their Imperial aspirations, probably are largely responsible for the problems that have unfolded in the Middle East, even before World War I . From the 1920’s onward, the insatiable need for England to have supreme control over the oil riches of your region, led to so much instability in the region. After World War II, the Americans became the ones who wished to control the Mid-East oil holdings, to strengthen U.S. hegemony in the region. My country also helped create much instability in the region, and after 1948, by unconditionally supporting the Zionist Project of the Jewish State. The current conditions certainly did not develop without much Western meddling and intervention in the region! It was quite helpful to hear things from the perspectives of those who live or have ties in the region, without the typical Western or Israeli extreme biases and propaganda! We only get these viewpoints from other courageous independent investigative journalists like yourselves, never from our governments or mainstream media outlets. I think many young people around the world are awakening to the realities of this horrific genocide of the Zionists, and as their ranks swell, Western governments will finally be held to account for the atrocities they are complicit in facilitating , by supporting the murderous psychopaths in the current Israeli government. I am ashamed of my government’s participation in this, and as an American of the Jewish faith, equally outraged by the conduct of Israel and its military over the past 76 years! This nightmare and unimaginable suffering and hardships being inflicted upon the civilians of Palestine and Lebanon, must cease immediately! There is absolutely no justification for any of this horrific behavior being metered out against civilians!!! I cannot comprehend, how the West stands by as this barbaric behavior by Israel continues, with no end in sight.! My prayers go out to all those who continue to suffer, and for all the martyred souls that have already perished! To use the atrocities committed during the Holocaust, to defend what Israel has done for decades, is an insult to all those who list loved ones in. World War II, and equally as offensive to those who have lost loved ones since the early 1900’s in Palestine. Thank you both for having the courage to speak your minds, share your views and keen insights, and expose the truth about this genocide, for a change. You are both doing an excellent job keeping us all better informed about this critically important information! Please keep up the good work!!!

The Israeli education minister needs to be educated. All that bravado yet he will be at the back or in Poland.

I'm proud to be Lebanese too

She's gorgeous

Thanks so much. This was really an excellent episode. Enjoyed immensely. Free Palestine from Australia
