00:00We're in the most devastating time it's ever been for the Palestinian people, particularly those in Gaza,
00:05but also increasingly those in the West Bank and in the Jordan Valley who are suffering occupation.
00:10Politically, we're in a very interesting and quite different situation,
00:14in that there's a far greater global awareness and understanding,
00:18because they've seen on live television what's happening in Gaza.
00:21The formation of the Hague group within the UN is a significant development,
00:25and the decisions of the International Court of Justice and the ICC have made a big difference.
00:30So I think globally there is a huge shift against Israel's occupation, against the bombardment,
00:37and the main supporter for Israel is actually President Trump.
00:41Even American public opinion is now moving heavily against Israel's military activities in Gaza.
