If you have some extra time and would like to hear me talking about the statehood bid and Abbas’s speech, check out the two following links:

Click the link below for a Podcast of the BBC radio show “World Have Your Say”

In this podcast which was live earlier today, I talked about my opinion on the statehood bid, I also got to comprehensively reply to a Palestinian who believes that going to the UN will grant him rights which will put a stop to Israeli criminal activity (segment with Jalal begins about 6 minutes in).

Later in the day, at the time of Mahmoud Abbas speech, I was hosted live again on BBC’s show “World Have Your Say”, but this time, on television.

I was somewhat nervous at the begining (first time), but I managed to go through the whole thing smoothly!

Start at minute 15:30, after Mahmoud Abbas’s speech. 

Notice, tune in at 21:15 for “Khamas Khamas and Khamaaaaas” kind of talk.
