I have been following the weekly protests in Nabi Saleh, Palestine for many years now, and that includes Janna since she was very little and started with a cell phone. Same goes for Ahed, Rand, and Marah and their parents, uncles and aunties, cousins and friends.

Janna gets straight A's (I have seen her report cards). Her English goes from good to nearly forgotten back to good again, most recently I think she has some tutoring. I have watched her films of any number of atrocities committed in her village and surrounding West Bank and I have to say, she is one brave BRAVE little girl. She appears now and again on Arabic TV, and is featured (with Ahed and Rand) in a documentary "Radiance of Resistance". She should serve as a model for USA protesters.

If anyone has any doubts about how the Black Lives and Indigenous Peoples' Water Protector struggles relate to Janna, and Palestine's struggle, her videos should erase any questions.

Janna and her family and friends are 100% genuine and deserve our attention and support. She is not a paid shill, but a real girl with true reporting from her village. If you want to feel how Israeli occupation feels to an unscripted real Palestinian child, follow Janna on Facebook.

Here is a video mashup she put up about a half hour ago. Has English subs and I recognize a lot of the clips. I told her she should forget CNN and Fox and that she could already get a job as a correspondent for RT and Telesur.

Note: Lately in Aleppo is another girl about the same age, but I (and others) have our doubts that she is "real" I am sorry to say. Beware of politicians (CIA etc.) using children as shills.
