Speaker Highlights Children in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon

Whatever I've gone through is nothing compared to what the children of Palestine and Lebanon are going through. I think that my answer to that question is just that instead of talking about myself, what I'd just like to remind everybody is that today in the West Bank and in Gaza, children are being

killed as we speak here, and no one is talking about it.

And in Lebanon, they just set off a gigantic bomb that nobody even kn- these bombs are vaporizing people.

These are-- this is the, the, the rule of law, the international rule of law has disintegrated with these wars. And so I think my situation, which is a complicated one and is positive and negative, uh, is, is really not the story. I think the story is, I mean, we have a lot of problems with First Amendment rights that are not

just me, uh, in the United States, which is, would take a long time to talk about. But I think that in answer to this, it's just important to remember that whatever I've gone through is nothing compared to what the children of Palestine and Lebanon are going through, and many other places also. But since you asked me that question,

just that.
