- She spent a decade studying Israeli and US propaganda, speaking to hundreds of Palestinians and dozens of Israeli former soldiers.
- Tim notes she's banned for life from Gaza after being accused by the Israeli government of being a propagandist, Iranian agent, Venezuelan agent, and Russian agent.
