§Text from short clip of Jess Ghannam's speech

Jess Ghannam:

...It's very important right now that we keep our eyes open to what is happening in Palestine right now.

With all of the attention in Iraq and Lebanon (which is absolutely needed) we tend to forget what is happening in Gaza and in the West Bank.

The West Bank is under closure right now. There is no ability for medicines and food to get into Gaza.

Cancer patients are dying right now in the Gaza Strip
because the Israelis refuse to allow chemotherapy and other medications in. There are food shortages.

The situation in Gaza right now is catastrophic....
