Yasmina Guerda, the Head of Public Affairs and Communication at UN OCHA, speaks against the use of the term \u201cliving conditions\u201d to describe Gaza.<\/p>\n

\u201cNone of them have \u2018living\u2019 conditions. What they have is \u2018survival\u2019 conditions. And barely.\u201d<\/p>\n

If the world stood on one side exposing the Israeli atrocities, the US and Israel would still live in denial and scream \u201canti-semitism\u201d.<\/p>\n

English Script:
\nYasmina Guerda: I’ve heard and seen first-hand stories that will haunt me for the rest of my very privileged life. We really, really should not speak about living conditions there because none of them have \u201cliving\u201d conditions. What they have, if you look closely, is \u201csurvival\u201d conditions and barely. They’re holding on by a thread. I have seen families dig makeshift septic tanks with spoons using toilets and pipes from destroyed buildings so they could have a little bit of privacy and hygiene near their tents. You know, put some some distance between themselves and their own waste. Against all the odds, dignity has a pulse in Gaza. I’ve seen children make kites out of food packaging so they could play somehow under the constant buzzing of the drones. Childhood has a pulse in Gaza. Entrepreneurship has a pulse in Gaza. People talk about their dreams to rebuild after the flattening of their bedrooms and their kitchens. Hope has a strong pulse in Gaza. What civilian women, children and men need and desire above all, across the strip is a respite. They need decision makers to finally make a decisive gesture to put an end to the relentless way in which they are being knocked down after every attempt to get back up. And they need the support of the rest of the world to do that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
