Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib spent much of his childhood in Gaza before becoming an American citizen. He has lost dozens of family members and both his childhood homes in Israel's war in Gaza. But he hasn't lost hope for peace and the future of the Palestinian people. Listen as he describes the reality of life in Gaza under Hamas rule, and what he believes most Gazans think of Hamas. He also shares his thoughts on how to save Israel’s hostages, and how Palestinians can thrive once the war is over.

What an amazing man , a great deal of courage and heart to be able as a Palestinian losing family to still be able to speak truth ❤

I was crying the entire time listening to this. It’s painful to hear about so much suffering. One thing is clear: Hamas is not and was never good for the people of Palestine. Hamas is a parasite on Palestinians. If we chant Free Palestine, free Palestine from Hamas.

Russ, thank you for your commitment to dialogue and for bringing in guests from a variety of perspectives. I have appreciated the recent Israeli points of view (Yossi, Hillel), and would also appreciate hearing from more Palestinians.

How to persuade young Palestinians to accept the two state solution? Most young Palestinians want to move to Israel.

Why were there no protests against Hamas? Let me think...

@TEMindset83702 Месяц назад

Blame Hamas for lack of plumbing in Gaza. They spent the money on tunnels and weapons.

@peopleofisrael7958 2 месяца назад

Blockade?? Only when they started launching terror attacks and missles. Egypt has a border but never supplied water, electricity, food...why not?

@YogaladyToronto 16 дней назад

It’s not Egypt’s responsibility; it’s Israel’s responsibility to support and protect their citizens.

Gazans are not their citizens

@c5jp904 2 месяца назад

I’m confused, are Hamas not Palestinians?

@peopleofisrael7958 2 месяца назад

Why were there no protests against Hamas? Let me think...they celebrated in the streets for every terrorist attack, allowed their homes to be used for weapons and themselves as human shields. The Palestinians also danced for 911, beheadings, oct 7, all the dramatic instances of Jihad.

There are many protests against Hamas in Gaza. Ahmed is very familiar with them.

How about tried and tested and not so original concept of unconditional surrender ? Nobody remembers WWII anymore ? You really believe that an inhumane ideology cannot be eradicated ? How about a pretty successful denazification ? I admire courage, knowledge and idealism of Mr. Alkhatib, but I would really love a little admixture of realism.

Hahahaha nice try. We Americans all know who was dancing after 9/11 and if your someone reading this who doesn’t know… just google “Jews celebrating across river after 9/11” Nice try!

@peopleofisrael7958 2 месяца назад

He is from Palestine. Where was that? Who was the president? Was it near Atlantis? Gaza voted in Hamas. The civilians are responsible and were educated as jew killers.

@courtneytwait3351 2 месяца назад

You claim that they are all educated to kill Jews and yet here you are saying all the civilians in Gaza are responsible? No need to differentiate from the ones who are currently too young to read or write let alone anyone under the age of like 33 which would make them too young to even vote in the last election, really? They are all responsible you say? Do you honestly not see the incredible irony in you then claiming THEY are the ones who educate their children to hate an entire group of people? Look in the mirror shlomo. Talk about a ridiculous and pathetic lack of self awareness.

@courtneytwait3351 2 месяца назад

Wow. All the civilians are responsible eh? And then you expect us to believe THEY are the ones educating their children to be Jew killers? Sounds like you need to go take a long hard look in the mirror.

No sewage? What do they do with the billions of dollars on international help Gaza gets? I take it that he responds yes to the question of whether hatred is taught in schools, even though his answer is convoluted as if he was trying to loose us. He also says that Hamas had to ‘invest’ (?) in luxury items to sustain the economy??? Call a spade a spade, mate: Hamas has squandered billions of dollars that the international community has given to the Palestinian people in Gaza to help them build up their lives and their economy and to have a bright future, Hamas has squandered it .Hamas is an Islamofascist organisation that oppresses its own people and uses them as sacrificial offerings in the altar of their fanaticism.
