To the one who goes to negotiate, leaving us humiliated like this,

I want to say something to him.

When you're hungry, go negotiate.

When your son is dead, go negotiate.

When you're thirsty and sitting in a tent flooded like a river,

go negotiate.

When your house is destroyed, go negotiate.

But you shouldn't be the one negotiating while you're well-fed,

and sitting under the air conditioner,

and with your necktie and the words you spew from your home.

May God hold you accountable.

Go on and be arrogant.

You mean I should just endure?

Come sit with me in Gaza, and then I'll endure.

Come endure with me, so that I can endure.

Come suffer what I'm suffering, so I can endure.

But not you, sitting in luxury,

with your belly sticking out ten meters in front of you,

while I'm here, humiliated, you order me to negotiate?

I should feel? I should be patient?

But God is my suffice, and the best disposer of affairs.

By God, I swear,

I was pepper-sprayed several times.

By God, by God.

I was pepper-sprayed several times.

By God, the old women...

the elderly women,

they trampled them, they'd pull you and then throw them.

I tell him, 'Shame on you, you're my countryman.'

And he tells me, 'Get up.'

I told him, 'I have a heart condition.'

He says, 'You're a liar. If you had a heart condition,

the electricity...

that zapped you would have killed you.'

God is enough for me.

And You are the best disposer of affairs.

God is enough for me, and You are the best disposer of affairs.

I want to go back to my children.

I'm going back to my children, I came from the north.

I swear to God, I came from the north.

I swear to God, I have nothing.

I swear to God, I haven't eaten or drunk in a while.

I swear I can't get up, struggling against the unknown.
