In this explosive episode of East to West, host Balig Sladeen sits down with Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, a Gaza-born analyst who speaks openly about the one topic everyone avoids: what people in Gaza REALLY think about Hamas. No slogans. No propaganda. Just personal experience, raw emotion, and truths that rarely escape the region.Ahmed shares what friends, relatives, and civilians whisper behind closed doors — the fear, the pressure, the anger, the exhaustion, and the silent majority that never gets represented on screen. This is the kind of conversation that breaks narratives, challenges assumptions, and brings forward voices that have been ignored for years.
