Really speaking truth to power: Susan Abulhawa ” If you aren’t careful, they will siphon your soul before you even realize it.”

I listened to this video by accident and I discovered a woman equal to Arundhati Roy in her ability to wield language to express the empathy of a beautiful soul:

She’s been around quite a while. Here’s another cracker, her brilliant speech at the Oxford Union 28/11/24, transcribed:

You can see/hear some of her contribution on the Oxford Union youtube, with the following message:

"Consistent with our existing practice of upholding standards while being mindful of potential legal concerns, sections of the official footage of the Israel/Palestine debate have been removed." (Yes, but only from Susan Abulhawa’s bit of ‘official footage’ methinks)

Here’s more on that:

Just one quibble; Arnon Sofer’s “kill & kill & kill” was from a 2004 interview - same year as Eitan’s quoted comment - not 2018. (He tried to ‘walk it back’ later, saying he wasn’t recommending it, it was just what ‘Israel’ would ‘have to do’. So that’s all good then.)
