Besides calling Israel an "apartheid regime" (lie #1), which is now a standard part of all Israel-haters' vocabulary thanks to Human Rights Watch, she makes this bizarre claim:
"Palestinians are some of the most surveilled people in the world living under Israel's government, which I believe is an apartheid regime. You know, facial recognition technology is found in every block in Gaza. "
Israel has magically installed cameras in every block in Gaza, without any Palestinians noticing or removing them! (lie #2) (And, they live under Israel's government lie #3!)
The lies in a 20 second clip don't end there. Her allegations that Israel uses Microsoft facial recognition technology seems to also be false, as she is probably referring to Microsoft's investment in an Israeli firm, AnyVision, which Microsoft then stopped even though its own investigation showed that Israel did not use AnyVision technology for face recognition of Palestinians.
That's a lot of lies in a short clip.
Palestinian leaders and officials lie all the time. But when Palestinians become politicians in America, one would expect that their lies wouldn't be as tolerated as they are in the Middle East.
Apparently, that expectation is wrong.
