- Auckland University senior lecturer Dr Ritesh Shah has spent years researching Palestinian children's experiences growing up in Gaza and the West Bank. He considers his time in the Middle East, and the politics of getting food and aid into conflict zones.
Join Jack Tame and the Q+A team and find the answers to the questions that matter. Made with the support of NZ on Air.
This researcher is very intelligent in his field. Is he a New Zealander? 👍
Yes he is.
Thank you for creating this channel
Also a very informative interview.
I've been following this war since it was announced and the news was always one sided. But there are always two side to the story.
I'm glad you found someone highly trusted and knowledgeable on this issue.
Finally someone speaking the truth! they need to co-exist! only way to live in harmony! why segerate yourselves just because of religion.
Agreed, one state is a good solution. Except for the fact that Palestinian demographic is larger than occupying Israelis, and if Democratic rights are given to each Palestinian, Israel as we know cannot exist.
@@imrana7145 fk thats a good point! but as long as religion is not running the country its good! they have lived together before.
Palestines population is very stragetic and abnomal. gotta question there is such a big population in a war zone. worse, why are the ones leaving coming back?
Agree, NZ should take note with our own version of a two state solution
Read history. The Palestinian "people" is are a misnomer. They are made up of all the surrounding countries. The word Palestinian is a recent re-invention by the Arabs!! The sole purpose is to get the world to condemn Israel. The Palestinians are to be a continuous "victimized" people
I suppose we should be concerned and also help where we can but I scratch my head why it's on us saving these good people displaced by a stupid war these eastern countries continue to create over who's God is better all these countries are accountable promoting war ... humans gone mad
We should all be concerned about the health of the Palestinian children, including Hamas.
Excellent interview Jack. Treat all your guests in this way. I found this interview very educational and thought provoking.
Applause to you and your guest.
Good job. Well done!
I guess I will not have to wait long before having to endure your normal ranting style of interviewing …. Answer the question ….. yes or no, answer the question …. Yes or no!
Hell that is annoying.
@@JohanThiart I almost liked your comment. Luckily I read the second part. Jack asking for answers to his questions is what he needs to do to some guests as they refuse to give a straight answer. If you're ok with them fobbing off the answers with stupid slogans then you're very under-informed.
@@Kiwiskirt I did not write my comment influence you, I wanted to engage with you. So thank you.
I invite you to read my comment on his interview with Helen.
This was also a very insightful and thoughtful interview done with respect and leaves me as a consumer with a positive attitude towards the programme and the journalist and…… and better informed!!
By the way, yes or no questions are for the weak or biased journalists. The more they engage in this type of questioning 🤨 the weaker they appear to the consumer of news and information.
Challenge intelligence, do not play to bias!
That is what makes a good journalist!
If you want to listen to shock jocks, go to a standup!
Good clarification of the history & context of UNRWA funding
No evidence whatsoever has been provided that UNRWA staff were involved in attacks on Israel 7 October. Most other countries who stopped UNRWA funding preemptively to an investigation have now restored it. New Zealand should do the same. With the ditching of our independent foreign policy it was clear that NZ followed the herd with other western countries in stopping that funding at all. This is not good. We need to hold judgement until evidence is clear before acting in that way. Take back our position of an independent foreign policy.
Really. Hamas!! It is "they" that put children in harms way!!
One state solution is a dilution.
No one in there wants it.
Another fantasy that people without courage are suggesting.
We need the Palestinian to recognize Israel as the Jewish state, and finaly agree to two states solution.
The biggest obstacle to that is the "right of return" which is another way to say that you don't recognize Israel as the Jewish state.
Israeli lied about UNRWA. Get them food
Toronto,save
Why did Jack Tame not query this chap on Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza in 2005?
Where is the hostiges?
Where is the condemnation of hamas for the stealing of aid, money and attack?
So many clowns in the comments, Where's the condemnation of Israel who created and supported forerunner of Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood.
Steal what money? Qatari money was being paid to Hamas via ISRAEL!!!.
It's been Israeli policy to support Hamas to undermine Palestinian unity, Netanyahu publicly said this at his party conference in 2019.
Yep. A good question.

Absolute dreamer. Advocating for a one-state solution. Give me one single example of two different religious groups with a history of violence living together successfully in one nation.
Protestants and Catholics
@raymondgough6070 I understand your comment but without dreamers where would we be.
Religions have co-existed and are co-existing very well all over the world. The harmony is spoiled by bigots.
I am sure you know the names of many bigots that spoil good relationships between different communities:
Hitler, Hamas, Jihadists, fundamental Christians ….. to name a few.
@@Kiwiskirt he is cynical and blind to reality. Read Steven Pinker.
Of course there are unfortunately bigots in every group… But that does not negate the value of individuals or groups.
Read Jonathan Haidt. There are too many to list …. and even more that you should avoid.
Although not a religious dispute South Africa managed to live as one people when white SA stopped their racist policies.
UN nope.
Why is Hamas stealing food, waist food. Why did Hamas start the war continue the war and refuse to give up the hostages? What did Hamas think would happen after October 7th, nothing.
Bias Nz media as usual
Nothing new
can you explain whats biased? Or are you another bot commenter?
What I find bias is the choice of guest. If our media are to continue giving a platform to partisan political opinions on issues like this then they ought to run double guest interviews with counter bias. This would be much more interesting and fair.
For example, having someone in this interview bold enough to point out the fact that Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005.
@@1dayatatyme You're either woefully uneducated or obfuscating all the information that doesn't fit the very purposefully manufactured narrative you are trying to disseminate out into your own little echo chamber. Eitherway pointing out "Isreal withdrew from Gaza in 2005" doesn't explain what that means or how it relates to what the actual standards of living experienced by Palestinians in Gaza is like (the worlds largest security blockaded open air prison) 100% still under complete Military occupation and Rule even since 2005. They have extremely restricted access to food, water and electricity , no freedom of movement, or employment not recognized as legal citizens by Israel. They are harrased beaten and arrested routinely by IDF approx 10000 palestinian prisoners currently in Israeli detainment facilities, 7000 of them belived to be women and children mostly being held without charges indefinitely. They have no legal rights to build or upgrade existing structures even on land they ownn. Permits must be obtained from Isreal to build which is an extremely difficult, expensive and lengthy process that almost always ends in Denial or multiple denials over many years. IDF bulldozes Homes or structures they declare as illegally erected or built. Many independent aid and humanitarian rights agencies have reported and varified f Isreali war crimes, humanitarian law violations, abuses and genocide. Oct 7 was horrible, horrific, disgusting but also inevitable given the lenghtt of time living with that level of dehumanizing treatment and oppression day after day. Not a justification 100% act of evil but if Israel was trying to create the perfect conditions to exponentially increse the statistical probabilty of creating a consistent supply of young angry palestinians that have internalized trauma, depression, hopeessness, anger, resentment, hate and seemingly feeling they have nothing else to lose or tragically nothing they can imagine living for.
Ridiculous more aid is getting into Gaza than there was before the war. Hamas is responsible for this and should be condemned.
That is the truth the whole truth and nothing but...islam is shaytun inspired and the cause of all disharmony.
So Hamas is to blame ignoring the fact they've been living under Apartheid for 70+ years?
WTF, I wish people would stop lying or inventing, your comment is utter horseshit.
More aid is needed than there was before the war.

The Palestinians have been given a choice again and again and Israel has given up land for peace!! Gaza and the West Bank are examples. Just look ate the original partition allocated to Israel by the League of Nations (pre the United Nations).
Now a ONE state is the "only" way to go.
What choices were Palestinians given ever since the emperialist British gave Palestine to create Israel the whole Middle East was in trouble. At the end of the day it's all about Greed from the Zionist US UK goverment all that gas & oil other resources...
Lol... Given up land.... You mean confiscating palestinian land.
There is more food in Gaza but HAMAS have kept them and why are Palestinian selling UN food aids in their market place
Your comment is ridiculous and obscene.
@@user-jm3mo6sb6v and you are an idiot, Palestinian are laughing at the western world especially you @user-jm3o6sb6v
life is easy when you dont have to think about complex issues and build your viewpoint on your own ideology rather than evidence
@@TheWulgus What "is" the evidence of a ideology??
@@DW_Kiwi Unsurprisingly its theoverwhelming lack of evidence thats a dead giveaway
