Speaker at Liverpool event reportedly told crowd: “Our Palestinian resistance has once again taken the failed Zionist entity by surprise”

A speaker reportedly told a crowd at an event in Liverpool, “Our Palestinian resistance has once again taken the failed Zionist entity by surprise,” only one day after Hamas’ barbaric terrorist attack in Israel.

It is understood that Yasmin Elsouda, an ‘activist’ and member of the Palestinian Youth Movement, addressed a crowd of one hundred attendees at The World Transformed festival, allegedly saying: “Yesterday over 230 of our siblings… ascended to martyrdom at the hands of the Zionist entity. The current Zionist government has in no uncertain words been calling for genocide, another Nakba. Despite this, our Palestinian resistance has once again taken the failed Zionist entity by surprise and has declared enough is enough.”

Ms Elsouda also reportedly said later at the event, “Yesterday the Palestinian resistance crossed the fence that contained more than a million refugees…so, are we only willing to support Palestinians rising up when they are held at the fence and shot down?” and “These are the questions of our time and we have a responsibility to rise up and do the bare minimum, a colonise people’s right to resist.”

The address was apparently part of a session titled, ‘Resisting Apartheid: Nakba 75’. The event’s description partially reads: “This session will explore what that resistance has looked like over the past 75 years, and look towards the future that resistance has been fighting for.”

Audience members were reportedly heard applauding both of the statements.

On Saturday, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad carried out a barbaric attack in Israel. During the attack, families were slaughtered in their homes and in the streets whilst observing the Jewish religious festival of Simchat Torah. Hostages were also taken captive by terrorists.
