So this right here is my father,
together with my sister, Layla,
who was newborn at the time as one can see.
Yeah, this was back in the time when we lived in Cologne, I think.
The last time I saw my father in person
was when I was 11 years old
and my sister was nine.
It was in 2002,
before my father went back to Gaza.
But from then on, I only talked to him on the telephone.
He sent me letters and
also video materials but...
I have never had the opportunity to see him again.
And I haven't... I have never met my half sibblings.
I only heard their laughter on the telephone and talked to them on the telephone
Yeah, they told me they love me,
but we have never met.
I would like to read names of seven members of my family,
German citizens, who also died in Gaza in 2014.

Germany, a state which constantly tries to display itself
as a democracy
which is concerned with human rights
and the thoughts of humanity...
and justice.
And to see that exact country and its politicians
not respond in any way to the killing of my family members,
although they all had German citizenship of course,
is very very... has been very eye opening for me.
Viva, viva Palestine!
Long live Palestine!
Resistance everywhere!
I was very lighthearted and joked about everything
laughed about everything but...
now I've become very serious.
My opinion of the state and my really good-willing nature and...
this sense that everyone and the world only wants your best and...
looks for the best interest of humanity broke down completely
Germany financed!
Israel bombarded!
Germany financed!
The values my father taught us
are to always see the bright side of life and...
to laugh beside their efforts to undermine
anything that is good in this world,
which causes you to laugh
and to keep a certain sense of humor
despite all the rain and the pain.
