Israel killed more than 200 Palestinians in Gaza on Saturday, including 40 members of a single family. The official death toll in Gaza is now over 44,000, although experts believe that is a vast undercount of the true figure. Israel's onslaught has continued to kill medical and aid workers in recent days, including three people with World Central Kitchen, the head of the intensive care unit at Kamal Adwan Hospital, a staff member with Save the Children, as well as Mahmoud Almadhoun, who co-founded the Gaza Soup Kitchen that has fed Palestinians suffering hunger due to Israel's blockade of vital food aid. Almadhoun was killed in an Israeli drone strike and is survived by seven children, including a newborn baby. His brother Hani Almadhoun joins Democracy Now! to discuss what he calls a targeted assassination. "My brother slowed down the ethnic cleansing of north Gaza, and that's why he was taken out," says Almadhoun. "This is a war against the civilians in Palestine."

@@lous.1548 I feel shame for humanity.
@@terilynnnelson572 understandably she feels that way bc most of us do who care about humanity. Even though we do BDS, the tragic losses of souls who were born to live and love have been taken bc of pure evilness! It's heartbreaking 💔
I watched a Hallmark Christmas movie from 2019. Pre pandemic and pre-war, and just marveled at how happy everyone looked. Pure happiness radiated through the screen. I forgot how that felt. Everyone you meet anymore seems so sad or troubled these days. Regular people anyway. This war is e v i l, and the darkness of it has caused a ripple effect to those around it.
"My brother slowed down the ethnic cleansing of north Gaza, and that's why he was taken out." This is our brother, all us.
You act like the Muslims didn't commit Ethnic Cleansing when they colonized Judea and Sumara and all of northern Africa all the way to Spain..... or when Muslims castrated every African male slave they had and used the women as sex slaves .
So true
I’m losing on faith in humanity’s ability to practice decency.
Humanity is flawed with sin, and it always will be.
Not in humanity, but in Western countries
Has anyone ever wondered what is going through the mind of a progressive American president who continues to give weapons to the israeli army after all these months of war? Could it be there is another side of the story that the media is not telling us?
@@CowneloAlvaroid In almost every country, there's always a "them" who isn't "us".
@@cxxmax And who called out the first sin?
A man who feeds the hungry. It's like targeting Jesus.
Jesus would have been kicked out of any Christian church if he showed up today. And Netanyahu would have ordered Jesus' execution.
🎯
Well it wouldn’t be the first time . Sorry guys … not sorry .
Let’s not forget what Jesus’ own people did to him.
America and its allies are the new rome
The hatred that speaks from the viciousness of the countless targeted killings seems
unfathomable
I have the impression its a growin mental condition in the western countries.
why is it unfathomable ? muslims celebrate their shahids. It seems like the more shahids there are the more muslims can be animated about their hatred of jews and celebrate their shahids.
It's been aided by America and Nato
It's inbred ... Zion: a world for JEWS filled ONLY WITH JEWS:: Talmud. The world is awakening to the truth. After they genocide the last Palestinian, the rest of us can only ask: "WHO IS NEXT?" They're beginning to ask: "Why does god continue to CHOOSE to create those the descendants of Abraham deem UNCHOSEN?
I really didn't want to watch this video, but it's vital to know these stories. Thank you
Thank you for your wisdom - those are very depressing stories to hear but they're very important and as a Jew I feel angry at all those hypocrites who go to visit the Auschwitz museum to take photos and they proclaim how sad they are about our Jewish loss, and yet, when they see terrible things happening in our modern times, they don't speak up unless it's something that the Military-Industrial Complex and their lackeys in the media told them to speak against (eg. Russia).
The expectation of upholding the so-called "Western values" seem to apply only to the countries our governments dislike.
@martinledermann1862 my only comfort is that there are less of these stories today than ages ago. Humanity can be very cruel to each other. At least the trend is improving since 20th century? But we can still do better together.

@@nuqwestr No, Voltaire is not considered the "father of the Reign of Terror"; this is a misconception as Voltaire, a prominent Enlightenment philosopher, advocated for reason and individual liberties, which directly contradicted the violent extremism of the Reign of Terror during the French Revolution. Voltaire also actively campaigned against the execution of Jean Calas, which is in direct contradiction to your baseless assertion in reference to the guillotine.

What a beautiful family full light and humility. We can all learn to be more like them. I'm grieved to learn all they continue to go through. Yet I'm also consoled the kitchen will remain open.
This is beyond disgusting 😢😢
Call terrorist IOF as animals is an insult to the animals.
Thank you to Democracy Now for this interview and showing the world just how horrific the situation in Gaza is and the depraved acts of the Israeli army is committing. I don't understand how the world can allow this to go on. My sincere condoleance to Chef Mahmoud Almadhoun's family.
Not an army really. My dad was a soldier in the 1950s in Malayia,he told me they did not allow higher ranks to abuse or kill innocent people there, he said, we were soldiers not animals.(barbarists).
These people of Gaza are so, so brave. I would be so angry and full of hate. I pray for each and every Palestinian. 😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm sure they are full of hate and no one would blame them.
Absolutely horrific assassinations of anyone helping palestinians. In the uk,the government arrested and detained for 5 days under anti terror legislation,a woman who was the mother of a protestor who protested an elbeit factory in the uk.
They are more worried about the protests than the crime itself..actions speak louder than words
He has a new born baby...
Some people invested in their humanity and helping others....
Others investments were in Genocide a d hatred...
It’s really about the Greater Israel agenda. IDF soldiers are wearing a map of Greater Israel on their uniform.
500,000 dead in Syria, 500,000 dead in Yemen, clearly where the "investments" are located.
Bibas also had a newborn baby....duh
HOW IS GOING TO STOP THIS MASSACRE. THIS MADNESS .WE THE CITIZENS OF THE WORLD CAN NOT ALLOW THIS TO GO ON.
What are you gonna do about it?
Unfortunately, most people don't want to get involved, not even to get informed or talk about it, because they're only interested in daily entertainment.
The White House could stop it in an instant with a phone call and an embargo. But we do not. Why?
I KNOW HOW U FEEL💔 IM FEELING HELPLESS & HEARTBROKEN IN THE UK!
@@Curt-Gevert He wrote. That's something, called free speech, free expression.
Western values and "self defence." Never forgive. Never forget.
Zionist lobbyists are just too powerful, Western politicians are afraid of standing up to them because as soon as they do, they're being immediately accused of being antisemitic which is usually a career suicide for them. Especially in the US, AIPAC has been so successful with their pressure, that even when you're Jewish yourself, you face a political tornado if you dare to speak anything against Israel. Indeed, sometimes it appears as if Washington was the junior partner to "our greatest ally", not the other way round...
Western values are incompatible with any religious values then.
Good thing Jesus doesn't follow this demonic principle!
Yes, never forgive, never forget.

Just terrible. HAS to be considered another war crime
Don’t murder Jews. Otherwise….
We are so sorry for your loss. We often write to offer our tears and sadness at what the evil do. But, the powers that be do not listen to our collective, worldwide voices.
Just sick evil and terrible. God rest his soul and help his family. God bring them Justice. God save Palestine.
This has got to be the biggest test for Christians and Catholics, in their entire history.
This is in no way Biblical.
God is responsible for their plight by siccing his 'chosen people' on them.
Yes because religion isn't a part of this war or anything. You are just deluded.
@dougm4160 Careful you don't trip on that white robe.
@@dougm4160atheists satanic zios are behind it all
I used to follow Abo Omar on Facebook and enjoy the food updates only positive update coming out of Gaza. Couldn't belive he was murdered by Israel. He was a chef and humanitarian
There is no justice.

This is so reprehensible, so inhumane, there are simply no words. The entire world's heart is broken! We have to ensure that the aggressors will not get away with it. We must continue to talk about this evil injustice and bring everybody involved to justice. The criminals are not only Netanyahu and the ex-defence minister, there are so many people who have blood on their hands.
My deepest condolences 🙏

I am truly sorry for your loss Hani. This madness has to stop.
Absolutely infuriating- this was murder & there needs to be accountability. It's insane that Israel keeps getting away with these crimes.
The problem is that Zionism is considered more worth protecting than people
This would be over in an instant IF the American president said to STOP. It has happened before! Jimmy Carter made a huge difference,m and even Bill Clinton stopped a war. The ONLY reason this is ongoing is because the U.S. is PAYING ISRAEL TO COMMIT MURDER. We are COMPLICIT.
what crimes?
Israel isn't the one committing crimes. That would be palestine in torturing and killing people in kibbutz and murdering and raping kids at a music festival. Murdering hostages point blank and holding them in caves. They have refused to give back hostages and this war that they started would have ended. Who should be held accountable are Palestine and Iran and the fact that idiots are buying the BS this woman is peddling is insane.

It's so true -- they are not targeting those who are 'harming the Israeli' - but those who are 'helping the Palestinians'.
I am so sorry for your loss. I admire your brother's bravery. Imagine helping your community even though you are at such grave risk of being targeted.
The suffering of the people of Gaza is unspeakable, it's horrendous and, as Phillipe Lazarini, the head of UNRWA, and many others have said we have exhausted the vocabulary of the English language in order to describe what has befallen Palestinian people since 1948.

“This is becoming about anyone who is HELPING Palestinians.” Hani Almadhoun (brother of Chef Mahmoud Almadhoun who was targeted & assassinated by the IOF because he was helping to stop the famine in N Gaza). IOF’s evilness has no bounds 😡😡😡
it is, the reach extends beyond Gaza and into the UK, US, EU aand anywhere that people speak out report or protest against israels govt and armys actions. The police arrest them, they lose employment.
I was listening to a jewish activist in israel, she was punched in the face by the army, her parents home came under threat amd she was sent threatening messages. She stressed it was minimal aggression in comparison to what Palestinian citizens receive from israel.
