Chapter 1: What claims does Ahmed Alkhatib present?
what happened with the attack that Hamas launched as a terrorist organization, you have taken an entirely different approach to thinking about October 7th. You have eaten up the Hamas propaganda that says October 7th happened because of Zionism.
And you're eating up the Zionist propaganda, right?

That's where they came from, and they continue to impose that upon the Palestinian population. I ask you, why is it that in the West Bank, there's nobody stopping all the colonization?
Are you Palestinian?

Do you know anything about my history?
