“You got me to say something extreme so that people would say, well, let them suffer”
The Palestinian refugee Mohamed Elbata, who appeared on Alpha and Tatiana Stefanidou’s show “Tlive”, was beside himself.
“You are truly a disgrace, I am ashamed on your behalf. Now you have woken up that there is a war in Palestine. There is not a single media representative in Gaza. You want us to sit on our eggs, die quietly like good children without bothering anyone. This is inhuman,” said the Palestinian refugee in an intense moment of the interview.
At the same time, listening to the presenter repeatedly talk about “Hamas’ invasion of the State of Israel”, he exclaimed: “This is Palestine. What you say “state of Israel” is occupied Palestinian territories. Now it is Israel that is killing us. They kicked us out of our house and now we have no right to go near. You got me to say something extreme so that people would say, well, they’re all terrorists. That’s why you took me out».
The Palestinian refugee spoke about media propaganda, stressing that “They have killed 5,000 soldiers, the propaganda battalion, they are crying for decapitated children. The president of the USA cried for the decapitated children who turned out not to exist. All the channels cover what is happening in Israel, nobody talks about Gaza.
Do you know that half of the Israeli army are women? In the camp where the concert took place? I’m crazy, do you believe it? I am against violence, what happened saddens me. But it saddens me that for 17 years Gaza has been trapped. The WHO has been saying for 10 years that Gaza has no drinking water. Every three or so they come in, bomb and kill innocents.
For the first time, from being the perpetrator, Israel is becoming a victim and crying all over the world. Every day we are victims. The defense minister called us anthropomorphic animals and got everyone’s permission to slaughter us. Announce the war crime he will commit. 75 years of possession no one cries. Let’s accept that Hamas are terrorists, when a recognized state responds with the same brutality, no country complains.”
