- “While I prepare to swim in Paris, I’m racing to compete. I watch the news and I see people swimming to receive packages from the sea.”
Valerie Tarazi, an American-Palestinian swimmer set to compete in the Paris Olympics, highlighted the plight of Palestinians in Gaza at a send-off ceremony for the Palestinian Olympic delegation in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah on Sunday.
The State of Palestine will be represented by eight athletes at the Paris Olympics and two at the Paralympics.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸✊
Zahir Muhsein was a Palestinian leader of the pro-Syria As-Sa'iqa Ba'athist faction of the Palestine Liberation Organization between 1971 and 1979.
In an interview with Trouw Magazine, 31. March 1977 he stated....."The Palestinian people do not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new tool to continue the fight against Israel and for Arab unity.
So where are the geographical roots of the so called Palestinians???????
Hamas Minister of the Interior and of National Security Fathi Hammad, aired by Al-Hekma TV on March 23, 2012. Stated..........we all have Arab roots, and every Palestinian, in Gaza and throughout Palestine, can prove his Arab roots - whether from Saudi Arabia, from Yemen, or anywhere. We have blood ties. Personally, half my family is Egyptian. We are all like that. More than 30 families in the Gaza Strip are called Al-Masri ["Egyptian"]. Brothers, half of the Palestinians are Egyptians and the other half are Saudis. Who are the Palestinians? We have many families called Al-Masri, whose roots are Egyptian. Egyptian! They may be from Alexandria, from Cairo, from Dumietta, from the North, from Aswan, from Upper Egypt. We are Egyptians.
The so called Palestinians are not even from Palestine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Inshallah
@@KingForever-zu5jl Thank you fgor this Reality check

So beautiful to c people standing up for justice thax standing up for the palistines
Such honest smart intelligent human being
Keep it up
Beautifully said young lady you make us proud
FREE 🇵🇸 PALESTINE
No one is proud of a brainwashed female?
She must be suffering in America, when will she be moving back to Palestine? She can swim in the sea in Gaza. It's heartbreaking to know that she will never win an event in the Olympics. Maybe see could P in the pool as a sign of protest to the west's support of the zionists
Cisjordania Palestine 🇵🇸.
WHY ARE MUSLIMS PARTICIPATING IN THE CHRISTIAN JEWISH GENO SIDE OLYMPICS
P in the pool to support Palestine
May Allah Guide her and Protect her and make her a strong variable in Palestine's liberation insha'allah
At ancient times in Olympiad year , ALL WARS HAD TO STOP!
Exactly, so Israel participating in the Olympics defeats the whole purpose of the Olympics. Plus they wack as well so it makes little difference😂
that's probably why the Palastinians attacked when they did.

Çokta cesur ve onurlu duruşunuzla hakikati haykıran bu bayana? Bütün islam liderleri size kurban olsun ey cesur ve hakikati temsil eden gençlik sembolu güzel prenses?❤❤❤❤❤❤
Palestinians of Gaza have already won the GOLD medal 🥇, on top of winning the hearts ♥️ and minds of all people with an ounce of human dignity & integrity.
le sort des Palestinien et africain et le reflet de se qu'ont veut nous montrer tous les jours dans l'indifférences et l'hypocrisie de ceux qui nous gouverne
ne mélangez as les Africain avec les palestiniens, dont la culture n'est que violence, racisme et génocide.
Par respect pour eux. Merci
Tous des barjots et que des mensonges.
l'israel a tué plein de journalistes pour cacher leurs atrocités 😢
Those words hit so hard. I don't get how people could possibly say they're annoyed about hearing about Palestine. It's so odd to me that ppl can simply look away from an ethnic cleansing and genocide. Remember when human beings were human??

Subject: Urgent: Reporting Student Torture During Quota Movement in Bangladesh
Dear middle east eye team,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing to bring to your urgent attention a grave incident involving the torture of students by the Bangladesh government during the recent quota movement. Attached to this email is an image showing the injuries sustained by one of the students as a result of this brutality.
The students were peacefully protesting against the government's quota system when they were subjected to severe violence by the authorities. This unwarranted aggression has left many injured and traumatized, and it is imperative that the international community is made aware of these human rights violations.We are seeking your support in shedding light on this situation and bringing global attention to the plight of these students. Your coverage can play a crucial role in pressuring the authorities to take action against those responsible and ensure the safety and rights of the students.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.

@@Rara-lc4ip there are Blonde Palestinians, brown Palestinians and Black Palestinians…Palestine is the Holy land and it was always a main place for everyone to live in so yes you can find all colors in Palestine but most of the Palestinians have brown/Bronze skin color and lastly Free Palestine from every ZioNazi.
@@ahmadmousa6037 ah so you are really white people aha so you are the real colonizersssss i always felt that way thanks for clearing it up
@@ahmadmousa6037 so youre not brown so you’re also colonizers got it
Very true free Palestine from hamas and Islam

Such wishful thinking but I guess dreams are free lol!
Free Palestine 🇵🇸 ❤
Sing out loud for your people sing 🇵🇸
In any islamic country, no matter under invasion or not ,all women has to swim to survive.
Palestyna musi być wolna!
This was a BEAUTIFUL & heartfelt speech by Valerie Tarazi. ALL people of Palestinian blood should be VERY, VERY proud of her. All UNBIASED Americans should ALSO be proud of her for standing up for true & decent beliefs.
I ALSO thank French consul - Nicolas Kassianides - for remembering one of their athletic family who, because he is from Gaza - has been killed - like SO many others. This shows how this ALLOWANCE - (by NOT CUTTING TRADE & TIES & MILITARY SUPPORT) - of death & destruction IS REAL & affects REAL PEOPLE! - (even their competition may NOT be at its finest, because some of their competitors are now killed - & can no longer be competed against.)
Free Palestine!!!🇵🇸 InshaAllah Allah will give Palestinian people their right of freedom!!
Valerie’s words are heartfelt. The world still deaf, silent, blind, and complicit to this genocide.
👍👍👍

she prepares to swim in Paris while the police there is fining people from wearing keffiyeh and arrest people holding the Paletsinian flag. What an irony 🤢 france and germany make me so sick.
Palestinian flag and culture belong in Gaza.. Don't be a dirty colonizers !🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@paulgifis1908 accusation is always a confession. “dirty colonizer”? 😂 I don’t whether it is racism, arrogance or ignorance or all three. I believe it is too late dear, israhellis have already colonized your country and its media. Say hi for us to habib.

They would not have to swim to fetch packages from the sea if they hadn’t been supporting HamaSS since 2007

Packages from the sea? 😂

Haniyeh Dead! What a surprise this happens right after the visit of Netanyahu in US and after getting "the greenlight.
LONG LIVE PALESTINE
She forgot about Israeli civilians hold hostages and who launched this war. Her speechwriter didn't mention this?
Stop watching cnn. Israel had foreknowledge of the oct incident therefore complicit. Also thousands of palestinian hostages getting tortured, even b4 oct 7. Stop being so ignorant
Ozod Falastin❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No mention of the evils and crimes of Hamas. Shameful. LONG LIVE ISRAEL!!!! ❤️🇮🇱✡️❤️🇮🇱✡️❤️🇮🇱✡️
Israel killed more hostages than Hamas? Like what the actual fck, we are not even comparing them to the disgusting horrors that israel have done to Palestinian children/women, people whom truly are innocent. We are just comparing them to the Isrealis, that Israel murdered and directly aimed to murder
Israel had foreknowledge of the oct incident therefore complicit. Stop being so ignorant
@@raminkhajavi9513 stop being ignorant of the evils Hamas commits.
@@bman3794 even fake videos ready to go, and rape allegations were not reliable

Israel can not lie anymore and no occupation no Oct 7th no Hamas
Huh ?
@@sopiananwari2083 no you
Long live Palestine and Neturei Karta! Long live Valerie! Boycott the men's wars and nationalistic Olympics! Stop the western sponsored extermination campaign and cover up of Palestinian natives from their ancestral homeland
it's dumb how the majority of people who support the Palestinians are people who have family that are Palestinian.
Everyone should care about the plight of the Palestinians because the Palestinians ARE our comrades.
So not true. You have hundreds of millions supporting Palestine out of humanitarian perspective. What are you talking about?
@@harlem6365 70% of people protesting on the Palestinians behalf are ethnically Arabic.
My worry is that they only do so because of tribalistic reasons rather than for communistic reasons.

i tried to comment on this but could not . ....
Lies
Not very good at competing .
Deport deport deport
Sport is not politiek
Perhaps you should ask Hamas why life is unbearable for Palestinian and why they now swim to survive
Unfortunately in this world there will be conflicts. There are problems between Muslim countries and Jewish communities, especially in Israel and the US. But hate and discrimination aren't part of any religion or culture. They often come from historical and political issues.
Jewish people have faced persecution, and Palestinians have faced displacement and human rights issues. Ideally we should understand and respect each other, and work towards peace and justice for all.
“Let's build bridges, not walls!"
It's not about religion! It's a western sponsored eurosettler colonial project displacing the indigenous native population of Palestinians from their ancestral homeland. B4 apartheid state of Israel, there were Palestinian Arab Jews, Christians, and Muslims living in peace and friendship for centuries. Please educate yourself and check out the book by Jewish historian scholar, the ethnic cleansing of Palestine
Also, the Palestinians did not commit pogroms and persecute Jews, who fled Christian lands of europe and Russia to more tolerant arab and muslim rulers who recognized the people of the book. The coexistence was disrupted by the British empire initiated Zionist movement, which many jews opposed and still do.
Sure, here are some more facts about rain:
1. **Types of Rain:** Rain can be classified into various types, including drizzle (very light rain), showers (intermittent rain), and downpours (heavy rain).
2. **Formation:** Rain typically forms in clouds when the air becomes saturated with water vapor and cools, causing the vapor to condense into droplets. These droplets merge and grow until they are heavy enough to fall to the ground.
3. **Measurement:**

Blame Hamas and Haniyeh Burger, lol
Don't attack Israel then.
her name is valerie and she looks caucasian ..
1. Most Arabs look white. You people in the west have been lied to and systemed to believed that arabs look dark even though most of us have light skin.
2. She's arab Christian. Most arab Christians have western names.
I'm a egyptian Christian. (Fully egyptian btw im not mixed.) I have light brown hair pale skin and blue eyes. And my name is maria (nicknamed mimi).
Stop being uneducated if u went to the middle east ud know how white us arabs are and many arab Christians have english names. Also arabs literally have to check "white" when entering America. That just proves to you how "white" we look
👏🇵🇸🇹🇷🇵🇸
She goes to Havard university?
