Unsure if it's the one you're referring to, but she did an interview in Swedish and the frustration you hear from her is just as gut wrenching.

I could speak of all of the children who are no longer able to go to school, of all the children who required amputation, of all the children now orphaned. Of all of the houses and quarters that have been obliterated by bombs. I could also speak of the extreme physical abuse and the torture we were subjected to in prison. I could speak of the many bombings that our boats were attacked with on the way to Gaza. But nothing sticks! I could list all the international laws and UN conventions that Israel is breaking every day, of which we have seen a tiny, tiny piece. But this has already been said thousands of times. And like I said, it doesn't stick.

She technically says "it doesn't bite" rather than stick, but I don't think that kind of phrasing works in English. In essence, it means to have an effect. She expresses that nothing she can say will have any sort of effect, so why bother talking about it? That it's not like we're unaware of what's going on, but that we're choosing to ignore it. How no matter what atrocities we're exposed to, nothing has the effect of making those in power do something about it.

We're pouring money to Ukraine in this proxy war against Russia, which obvs. isn't a bad thing, Ukraine deserves the support. Yet our politicians are expressing none of that staunch humanitarian fervour for the Palestinians.
