She says I don't even know to say I think everything that happened was very transparent on both sides I know who I am and I know that what I said always came up from a place of love and a place of humanity and a place of human Rights and a place of freedom for the people which shouldn't be controversial. It shouldn't be up for debate I'm so very at peace. So I'm very up. I'm very at peace The people who know me my family know the truth about me and where I stand and I think most people in the world also do so Barreira stressed that she was asking what what she was asking for was a ceasefire in Gaza Which is for the well-being of both sides of that wall, you know At the at an end to the violence.
