I am from Israel and I thank Noam for raising her voice, being active towards peace, freedom, and equality for all.
Palestinian here (in the diaspora) and i wish there were more people like her ❤ we need Justice and equality, then coexistence comes…
‘It’s mine now. God promised it to me’ made me chuckle to myself. Great line.
Been following Noam since 2018-19.. stay strong sister, Palestine is home to ALL OF US, equally
Noam is so humane and conscious. We need millions like her in this world 👏
I love this. Coexistence is not the goal. Setting that as the goal stifles dissent, stifles disagreement and people’s righteous rage. Justice is the goal, and with that will come peace, will come coexistence as side effects.
From Iran, Your Mother Land.... we are so proud of you...thanks to you, Your mom and dad.
I am Iranian American and I admire this Iranian Jew for solidarity with Palestinians! Keep up your good work!
Looks like a great documentary can’t wait to see it
I love her! She is a fresh breath in the sh*thole we live in.. and I am a Palestinian who lives in Yaffa saw a couple of her shows just to feel human ❤
