“She lived in Gaza for three years”

 This interview was conducted by Jerm Warfare and published on UK Column on June 19, 2025, with the introduction (my links added):


“In this discussion, journalist Eva Bartlett shares her experiences from three years in Gaza and her time in Syria. She describes the harsh realities of life under siege, the impact of Western media narratives, and the broader context of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Bartlett highlights the resilience of the Palestinian people and questions Israel’s expansionist goals, while also exploring the complex relationship between the US and Israel. Her insights shed light on the ongoing humanitarian crisis and the vital role of on-the-ground journalism.”

*Since I was asked this question, two other replies:

Excuse Me, But Israel Has No Right To Exist

 

“In practice, to say “Israel has the right to exist” is really code, intentional or unintentional, for “Israel has the right to maintain its character as a Jewish supremacist ethno-state.” This is currently happening through refusing Palestinians citizenship or collaboration as equals, or the right of return to their ancestral lands. Considering the fact that Palestinians have spent the last few decades either in ghettoized villages in the West Bank or in the open air prison camp of Gaza, and embrace absolute resistance to their own disempowerment and exclusion, to say “Israel has the right to exist” is a declaration of commitment to either eternal war, ethnic cleansing, or genocide.” [source]
