Why can't we (or Ms. Rachel) talk about Gaza's children dying?

She sounds like an arsehole, honestly. That's what I've been told. That's what I've been told by parents. It teaches the kids to be utter arseholes.

Why can't we (or Ms. Rachel) talk about Gaza's children dying?

I think they're upset because when such a mainstream beloved figure... expresses support for Palestine, it shows to what extent the default position has shifted. So for the longest time, the default position was basically one of sympathy towards Israel and suspicion towards Palestinians. And that was kind of what was defined as neutral and objective.

And for somebody like Miss Rachel to come out and state that she is horrified by what is happening to Palestinian children... is such an indication of how much public opinion has shifted. And people are fighting very, very hard for where that center lies. So these right-wing groups are trying to keep everyone dragged to this side where the center is actually a pro-Israel position.

Why can't we (or Ms. Rachel) talk about Gaza's children dying?

I would actually argue that Miss Rachel is staying in her lane by speaking up on this. She is a children's educator. Therefore, she has a concern for children, for the fact that children are being systematically starved, for the fact that education in Gaza has been absolutely destroyed. Schools have been bombed. Teachers have been killed.

Why can't we (or Ms. Rachel) talk about Gaza's children dying?

No child in Gaza has been able to have access to a decent level of education since October. And, I mean, this is particularly shocking given that Palestine used to have a literacy rate that was actually higher than America's. And that's all gone now. So I would argue that as somebody who is a children's educator, she has a real concern to speak up on behalf of children and education.

Why can't we (or Ms. Rachel) talk about Gaza's children dying?

And, by the way, I would say that... For most of us who aren't Palestinian, very often our lens to understanding this is through our careers. So for me, as a journalist, I am deeply, deeply concerned and troubled by the targeted killing of journalists in Palestine.
