The US town of Paterson, in the state of New Jersey is thousands of kilometres away from Gaza.
But for many who live there – the war feels very close to home.
Al Jazeera’s Kristen Saloomey reports from Little Palestine, New Jersey.

Two things make Israel so strong despite its borders with all these Arab countries:
1- Unlimited American and Western support
2- The betrayals of our Arab rulers.
Your failure to recognize that the Yahud have built a successful modern state, and no Arab or Islamic society has done the same, is a part of your weakness.
A strong Israel is an enemy of Islamic terrorism and an enemy all those who wants to implement Sharia law in US, burn our flags and plot attacks against our homeland, our people in other countries.
“Israel controls the U.S. Senate. The Senate is subservient to Israel, in my opinion much too much. We should be more concerned about the United States interest rather than doing the bidding of Israel. This is a most unusual development.” – J. William Fulbright
“Israel anchors the eastern Mediterranean for Europe. Israel guarantees western access to the Suez Canal. Israel contributes intel to the CIA and weapons tech to the American armaments industry.” – Abraham Lincoln.
Lol. Why are you quoting the words of some senator who’s only known for his scholarship and being opposed to anti-communism in USA?
@@sihasnesh2016 “Real quotes include citations, allowing the reader to find the original.” –George Tupou, King of Tonga.
U think US becomes superpower by letting Israel control it.. Lol
Coward Muslim countries thu thu.
UNSC is shame Shame.
Animal Israel and terrorists America are bombing on mosques Refuge camps women children and Innocent people.
Where are UN Arab and humanity. SHAME SHAME
Why live in US then if u hate and its foreign policy
They don’t hate it here, America just needs to stop funding wars in the Middle East.
Because its foreign policy is violating international law. There’s many other religions and ethnicities that oppose the US government because of how they’re managing affairs internationally but you don’t tell them to get out. Why is that?
@@sweetn2qute we all know reality buddy
Who u r trying to fool
Islamist jokers deserve nothing but our contempt
Be grateful for being in a civilised country and move on
Patriotism is must specially if u r immigrant… U should be grateful to country for letting U in
Hopefully, the Palestinian resistance will continue to resist the slaughter of their People in Gaza. ❤ 🇵🇸 from 🇫🇷
Free free Palestine from the river to the sea
What does that mean?
No other people has ever been so coddled, on the way to statehood, as Palestine Arabs. Ask the Kurds.
Here’s the truth: becoming a UN project is the second best thing that ever happened to Palestine Arabs, after being included in a dynamic Israeli society as Israeli Arabs. Forced to go it on their own, they will deliver another Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, Sudan.
They want the Palestine Cause/ Holy Jihad to go on forever.
@@jonlenihan4798you mean no other state has been coddled as much as the state of Israel.
I’m going to move there with my former unit
What kind of people these are.. release hostage and avoid war
Your right, if Isreal had released their millions of captives and countless captives decades ago, hamas would never have grown root at all! Why, if the IDF did not, for years, routinely take hostages and hold them without charges, just to stroke fear, imagine where we could be! The people dying are civilians, you realize that right? Children? Dentist’s and housewives. Isreal wanted an excuse. You do not bomb buildings WITH hostages in it, if you care about hostages.
They should ask Ha-mas to surrender and give back all the hostages that are not murdered…in order to end the war and save Palestinian lives…can’t expect Is-rael to care more about Palestinians than H-ama-s
Asalaam alikum, as an American Muslim, we ARE ESTIMATED TO CONTRIBUTE 2.8 TRILLION BY 2025 to the US ECONOMY. SO WHEN PEOPLE WANT TO ABUSE , DISCRIMINATE, AND MISTREAT US. THIS OF HOW MUCH WE SHARE WITH YOU TO BE UPHOLDING CITIZENS. THIS IS OUR HOME TOO.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lol
You immigrated from violent backwaters, where people murder one another for 100 different reasons and call it “honor.” You will not be allowed to continue the failed social practices of your failed “back home” countries in the US.
Unfortunately the US still has far too many Disgusting people to reconcile it’s Disgusting behavior 😞
QUE HORROR QUE HORROR QUE HORROR
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
They should move to a different country. US will always support Israel
USA needs to break free from IsraHELL. The youth of today will eventually make that happen. The Gen Z’s. Things in life go full circle
You mean since Israel Attack itself on October 7
😢😢
We and the HISTORY WILL NEVER FORGET what Zionist Israel and its supporters are doing!
Leaders of muslim countries who has immense power and funds to influence on this genocide are only talking, afraid of doing even a baby-steps!
Biggest and betraying cowards of the recent human history and era!
Excellent reporting dear Saloomy
