ALJAZ Jerusalem A Rock And A Hard Place 2019 Ep 2 July 13, 2024

A ghost the sun and on their once bustling terraces the symbol of a pandemic that swept through italy leaving files instead devastating its economy is that this hole would have been crowded noisy with people chatting at the bar visitors passing by and appreciating the beauty of these halls now its empty lonely it is the 1st time in almost 80 years of the history of this hotel which was built in the thirtys is empty and closed. But there are signs of hope the government is allowing people into and out of italy from early next month free travel within the country will also receive a number youre going to get we look forward to the reopening of borders and then there might be the possibility for travel forecast the not positive but we are very optimistic. A low italys coastlines hotel owners are preparing for a different kind of summer but on the other were ready to host tourists who come to the veneto coast in these last weeks we work to adapt our beaches our hotels and our campsites to the Current Health emergency we were able to guarantee the celebrity of a seaside holiday caution is critical for any industry that contributes per 1000 percent to italys g. D. P. And employs more than 4000000 people the Economic Impact of the pandemic has been devastating for the london were estimating they will lose about 18000000000. 00 in 2 risen this year but we need to understand what will happen from tomorrow on wards if hotels have a possibility to reopen in june giving foreign tourist the chance to reach italy we will limit those damages with many countries district and travel tourist numbers are predicted to fall but between 60 to 80 percent this year closely. But maybe hope that with now the childrens business can get moving again and the lights can finally be turned back on. On sr. Police in the u. K. Are preparing for possible protests against coronavirus restrictions have been calls for Mass Gatherings even as england relaxes its lockdown with some people returning to work this past week roy chalons has more now from brighton in england. By and large though i think the u. K. Population has been on board with the lock down it tends to view the governments actions as being if anything a bit too late or perhaps not going far enough in restricting peoples movements but if we do see people coming out down to Brighton Beach today it is not likely to be that many from the protesting end of the spectrum more likely to be day trippers and people coming out stretching their legs after the government earlier this week eased the restrictions slightly the us President Donald Trump threatening to veto a 3 trillion dollars support package for those affected by the pandemic has been voted through by the house of representatives at least 23. 00 Migrant Workers have been killed in northern india when their truck collided with another vehicle it is the latest incident involving laborers as they tried to return home during the coronavirus lockdown in the past week more than 30 have died dozens of babies have been left stranded in ukraine because of restrictions to control the spread of the virus the babies were born to surrogate mothers and their due to be collected by parents from the us europe and elsewhere. There being protests at malls across hong kong the movements leaders are calling for an independent inquiry into Police Actions during last years demonstrations those are your headlines the news continues here on aljazeera jerusalem a rock and a hard place ill have more news in 30 minutes ill see that. When i asked my mother when was the last time she took the train in and where did she go and she tells me yes of course i took the train because of this trade in jerusalem connects us with the rest of palestine when you look at old photos and you imagine how their lifestyle was at that time and when you visit the train station today its like a disney barque its its full of restaurants full of people who are completely indifferent to the history of the of this space who are completely ignorant words to receive they dont belong you know my son often tells me you know mama these people they dont seem to belong at all to this city it doesnt go with the spirit of the people today. We were the owners of these houses 77 percent of west jerusalem before 48 was palestinian owned and when i talk about palestinians i talk about muslims christians and the minority of jewish people. The new 1st train station as they call it a look at the. Inside the restaurants most of those people will be palestinians probably from the west bank or from marginalized areas and to the cinema with very low salaries. They are treated like garbage and this alexis then is a man. Which to sort of get that up in no way they say if they had the guts to put out. That i love unless thats what went with i love but look this is the way stand. By even the most wealthy i mean the outlook nice for me. Ill just complete confidence to be able to still use the website we all feel with any of us in a mommy and me. At the mill this is a good. Solution. Its a place where somebody has. To become the face and share. Their real id like to smash a setting but add a little. Study on school where people tell you. If youve never heard of it if it had. Been. Listening to the local machine the show this. Morning out of the whole thing im assuming its not mechanical sophia this is a look at that its not a sound and i want to see a command that i will only say i want he bought some having bought a. Good. Leader. My Fathers House is exactly opposite this street which becomes said. In arabic or that or the colony so lets go to my Fathers House and i hope they wont call the police so well do it very quickly. This is my Fathers House the house of the amount my father lived in this house for 8 years from the fortys until 48 with his mother he was chased out of the house like most of the palestinians because they wanted to confirm the statement of golda meir that this is a country a land without people but all these people were living in these homes in the 1998 netanyahu came into governance and as. A money money maker and many money lover he wants to privatize palestinian houses in the same time as Israeli Telecom and and electricity water all these elements which which can be privatized so that he can gain more money my Fathers House was sold for 4000000. 00 by plan who is a Real Estate Agent who came from america and. Neither my mother nor my son agreed to the fact that i am very passionately and emotionally involved in the past you can see that he didnt even come with me because hes he wants to avoid all these emotional issues when i came here last time. From outside i was taking a photo the people inside the house saw the flash they parked their car in the middle of the street they called the police they arrested me they put the handcuffs in my feet and in my hands i told them but what crime have i done whats my case i just took a photo. Not a Banana Republic we have a court system we have a court system who is definitely not in the pocket of the right wing or the religious of this country no one can get away with just driving someone out of anywhere in this country i mean we know the british were here we know exactly who was kicked out in one es and 948. 00 the jews are also kicked out of the area taken as prisoners of war thats real being kicked out and evicted by the arab world no arab is being pushed out or kicked out of anywhere actually being driven ash no such thing. They have been was here was seen this country since 17 conquerors were familiar with wars that have tried to driven us out when brought here is imperialists we have returned home as the Indigenous People to our own homeland and theres basically nothing that the world or the arab world can do about it whatever attempts they tried one succeed the make or team a jew living in some ghetto or statue under the nazis or under the czar or under whoever it may be the pirates we are today a strong people who have come back to our lands were back here now and no amount of arab terrorism violence or hatred is going to keep me up and they will be eaten up referenced you know its a sign from a stranger that maybe taken the wrong why but it doesnt mean that me personally will handle it because we have already. Any arab that wants to drive me out someone that wants to see some of the ones that drive me as. Someone that wants to stab my god forbid much like weve seen before you know that person will be eaten up for breakfast now that one beat that would be something i would do personally the jewish people the state the police whatever has to be done that will be handled. Not only are we looking over the temple mount seir the place where the golden dome is no thats the place the holy of holies this is what the arab world wants and this is what theyll never get. Abrahams children dont get along some brothers dont get along in this particular case in fact its even worse because theres parts of a very very violent streak in a south and l. Which is the combination and part of the muslim world today. Theres addict in that says a south hates jacob was he upset that abraham or isaac only gave certain listens to him and certain other blessings the him the children of a ram have been blessed in many different ways that the jewish people i am isaac jacob King David King solomon all the way to little daniel luria today in jerusalem is this one chain thats been blessed in a different way the little land of israel we have the covenant with god. We have returned home designers dream is being realized all the time and as the Indigenous People here the world and especially the arab world is going to have to understand that at some point in time. Today i live in ships never are i live spiritually if i may say saw in the western part of the city i wasnt born yet in 1948 during the docked. At the dock but its grounded in. These times times which i got from my Fathers House actually id processed. When the house was put on sale and they were uprooting all the time was and or what is in the house i chose to put them and document my history and my story i would ultimate goal is actually to preserve Cultural Heritage and precisely palestinian culture and heritage interest knowing very well that on a daily level. Attempts to eat raise everything called palestinian anything non jewish therefore where do you think how you want to preserve and protect your traditions to reach was your roots whether its the land words food for left from us whether its the coffee and the embroidered dresses that israel is taking them all as a presentation. I would accept not to claim my Fathers House and i thought ok im xcept thats for the sake of peace i accept not claiming my Fathers House for the sake of my son living in that injustice inequality in freedom. I see a very very very very sad depressing situation we live and i am ready what about my living here. The mother will be very emotional and very. About service and im about her Fathers House the toy store then and about. All the stuff so shes very attached to adhere. To the past and to the emotional heritage the score thats. For me for example why i try to focus more on the present. What to do with the presents like what more can make my life better you know. Im an artist so this is important for my art because my art is not a readymade its also about exploration and investigation. I had my 1st exhilaration when i was 16. And it was a photography. At that time it was the 1st intifada on the streets who were filled with stickers and posters and. All regret fijis everywhere so it was like walking in the big piece of art series its called reconstruction because its about reconstructing. The reality of the city so this series of work is my latest work its called wonders and signs one can see it as a metaphor of jerusalem because of the layers on top of each other and layers of history the layers of writings of messages or political messages and then you have the soldiers coming in and covering them with white paint and after its covered with white paint and the palestinians come back and they put a new message on it. Jerusalem is also a big ball a big bunch of things so its not easy to find your place you feel like youre an intruder paradoxically the people that come from abroad they feel home because its their Promised Land and for whatever reason you know. Most people think that this piece has been always it but the ground between religions and thats not. It was before 948 whether you were jewish muslim or christian we all saw ourselves as palestinian muslims but as the new christians but a sunni and jews. You have to know the 3 but you have to understand the context most of the population of the country was palestinian mainly muslim and jewish and christian but mainly Muslim Minority was christian of 10 percent and 5 percent were jews and there has always been synagogues churches and mosques. The shared values but the underlines the relationship between us it is about that image and i dont care if they play on friday or set of their sunday i care about how the treaty we are one people but what is divisive is where do you stand on the policies are fewer government when it dehumanizes. You read the bible through palestinian eyes and we read it in the context of living under occupation jesus lived under occupation became a refugee under occupation his miracles were what done under occupation the thousands gathered around him and that occupation so we see how deeply jesus resisted occupation and we tried to walk in the same footsteps. Samjhauta is one of the founders of said b. N. And she is an excellent writer and she has an excellent blog. Most of the israelis are secular jews but of course they use this to justify. That this is the city and then you find all these crazy christians i call they call themselves christian zionists their theory is is completely untrue because i mean when they say all the jews have to gather here the jews that israel is a happy about this part of the that theory but then so that the messiah can come and when the messiah comes they have to become christians and those who dont become christians then they will have to be killed i mean what kind of a religion is this what kind of a god is this god when the messiah comes if they dont believe then they have to be killed israel goes along with them they accept the fact the 1st part of it which is having them come over here but that makes many people would say well its this is if this is gods will i mean who wants gods will. Im a professor articles university and my campus is basically the main campus is about 3 minutes wiped off before the warning today i have to drive it depends on the added traffic if im lucky thatll be like between half an hour to 45 minutes thats family. Im going to lucked on but i almost kicked the wall. I feel this was terrible because at one point i had 3 kids at the university studying university collectively would waste 8 hours every day going and coming back from the rest. Of separation war as a part of his set up of his war is simply a spy scene and from palestinian only. Reason. I started this building i mean ive thought of this building for many years and i would have but i have now i have to go visit me for about 45 minutes around the north side of the vans ive just arrived this makes sense i think the people who live in egypt and they were just a normal a few jews you know not all of you but the only way one day you would just like to believe in war but you wanted to use your low. About 18 years with the school was used but has learned before i was. In britain because of the lack of sunshine for most of the time people talk when they meet each other they greet each other and they speak about the weather they would make a different story were a Beautiful Day and he and i have not to speak at one point they speak spontaneously about the checkpoint. Today the checkpoint is interesting what. The new one is definitely different from the walls of the whole city i accept the walls of the city. Good moving from one jerusalem neighborhood the other through to them if. This is only for the syrian neighborhood i mean you this is a good day because many people you know its in the morning during rush hour its the most difficult time when you have so you wouldnt see the people trying to make it work. To be being counted especially in the incident there was something that would fuck you put it like. There wasnt was there a woman named when i got on my bike here when she was trying to go to 3 the soldiers were not letting go they were asking her you have a Good American she would say no in front of the store just you sat down and she said i want to sell it to me. At the so i just started making fun of what so i remembered me and other young people and other people in the city is that the just one good thing going to grandmas that you need to go back you to do good. Theyre not going to let you but she insisted she stepped on the mound and said i want good and you will sell them to me. So of course the army bought the son. And he come come in. Who said the fucking pressure on her to leave her started encouraging we saw in her leadership thats not the nuts. And i remember. The point totally enforcements other 4 soldiers came in and they said grandma with guns you need to go and she said no im not going anywhere i want to go to jerusalem to preach she was insisting then 4 soldiers tried to carry her they could not then the soldiers give up and this said you know what this is how you would you go to play and i remember she couldnt go she couldnt walk and so on shed jump. And then like a 3 year old kid without the support of the Community Without the support of anybody on the god. She made it but you know sort of. The venezuela colombia botha has become a Stomping Ground for trespasses. As desperate people transgress an illegal passage. To feed in a mugging field trafficking markets.
