“Nací antes de que existiese Israel. Los judios fueron traidos por los británicos, nos los trajeron para destruirnos. Nos destruyeron y no nos dejaron nada, vinieron a Gaza, nos robaron las tierras, nos desplazaron y asesinaron a los jóvenes“.

On May 13-14, Israel celebrates Yom Haatzmaut, or Independence Day.
I pray it is the last one that your evil Zionist state celebrates.
Next year we will hopefully celebrate the birth of the modern Palestinian state.
And we can thank Hamas for that.

1:19
palese from Japan to Australia via Italy
1:24
and Yemen what started as an encampment
1:27
at Colombia University in New York few
1:30
weeks ago has turned into a global
1:32
student movement demanding universities
1:36
divest from Israel is this the peace
1:38
movement of Our Generation and can
1:41
students succeed where so much public
1:44
pressure has failed joining me from the
1:47
US UK and Australia to discuss this
1:49
today are three student
1:52
organizers Mahmud elisabeta Palestinian
1:55
first year student at Harvard University
1:58
with the Harvard out of occupied
2:00
Palestine Coalition Fraser Amos a PhD
2:04
student at the University of Warick with
2:06
the Warick stands with Palestine
2:08
Coalition and yasine Ali thirdy year
2:12
student at the University of Sydney with
2:15
the students for Palestine group welcome
2:18
to you all thank you so much for being
2:20
here Mahmud you’re joining us from
2:22
Harvard can you tell us exactly what’s
2:25
happening on campus right
2:28
now uh Yeah so basically on campus right
2:32
now we are having an encampment uh where
2:34
students are occupying the old yard and
2:36
demanding that they will only leave
2:38
until we have full disclosure of
2:39
Harvard’s endowment as well as uh
2:43
divestment from the state of Israel and
2:44
the Israeli regime uh moods are very
2:47
high right now and community members are
2:50
very strong and Vigilant and remaining
2:51
steadfast to mind despite so much
2:54
administrative repression Jasmine uh
2:57
same question over to you there what’s
2:59
the situ situation in
3:02
Sydney yeah well we’ve started our
3:04
encampments here uh seeing what’s been
3:07
happening in the US wanting to uh you
3:10
know stand in support of the students uh
3:13
there who have set up their encampments
3:15
um and demand similar things from our
3:17
University in order for them to cut ties
3:20
uh with weapons companies that are
3:23
complicit in genocide uh in Gaza so
3:26
Sydney University for example uh has
3:29
ties to this weapons company Tales which
3:32
uh has done uh you know collaboration
3:35
projects that have produced the drones
3:37
that are used on Palestinians so we want
3:40
to see our University uh end those ties
3:43
with weapons companies uh and uh Israeli
3:46
institutions um in order to uh stop
3:50
being you know complicit in the genocide
3:52
happening right now and Fraser you’re
3:55
part of the first encampment by a
3:57
British University is is the British
4:00
student movement less politically
4:02
engaged or what kinds of unique
4:04
challenges maybe do you face uh as
4:07
compared maybe to your us counterparts
4:09
when speaking out on
4:12
Palestine well I think well we haven’t
4:14
seen the same degree of violence in
4:17
repressing the protests um in Britain
4:20
that we have at Colombia and Austin and
4:22
across the US that British political
4:24
repression and policing is more
4:26
sophisticated in some ways it’s more
4:28
covert um we have something called the
4:30
prevent strategy for instance which
4:32
operates at UK universities and
4:35
effectively criminalizes and
4:37
problematizes political speech that’s
4:39
Anti-Imperialist targets Muslim Students
4:42
um and we’ve also had a wave of
4:44
government repression recently um new
4:46
legislation that restricts the right to
4:48
protest which gives Security Services
4:51
power to operate outside of the law um
4:54
but nonetheless we’re seeing students in
4:55
the UK are starting to defy that and I
4:58
think in the coming days we’re going to
4:59
see um an increasing wave of encampments
5:02
across the country Mahmud in America
5:05
we’ve seen snipers on campus rooftops
5:08
and very heavy-handed policing but
5:11
you’ve also faced other forms of
5:13
challenges haven’t you in terms of
5:15
doxing and threats of expulsion and of
5:18
course accusations of
5:23
anti-Semitism uh yeah it has been a very
5:26
a on campus um just over the last
5:30
semester we’ve had doxing trucks come
5:32
around campus into students parents
5:35
houses which was incredibly frightening
5:37
but we’ve also had several degrees of
5:39
repression such as Pro Palestine uh
5:41
Proctors being evicted from their houses
5:44
or also just having currently right now
5:46
at the encampment students who are
5:48
occupying are being passed ID slips
5:50
threatening that they their degree will
5:53
be with held if they continue to occupy
5:55
the yard right now however as I said
5:58
earlier students are still remaining the
5:59
Vigilant despite Administration uh
6:02
taking disciplinary action and still say
6:04
they will uh dedicate their time to
6:06
occupy this space until our demands are
6:08
met well let’s hear from Cameron the
6:11
lead organizer for Jewish voices for
6:14
peace at
6:15
Colombia I’m in a tent right now in the
6:18
encampment I feel extremely extremely
6:21
safe on this encampment so do my Jewish
6:23
brothers and sisters who are also on on
6:25
this encampment we have not heard or
6:29
seen
6:30
any anti-semitic rhetoric used on the
6:33
encampment or used by people affiliated
6:35
with it if there is rhetoric that is
6:38
anti-Semitic being said by Outsiders who
6:40
are not on campus we condemn that but we
6:44
do we we have no control over what
6:47
random individuals in New York City say
6:49
or
6:50
do we all we do know is that on this
6:53
encampment on this campus Jewish
6:55
students are standing with Pro
6:58
Palestinian organizers and
7:02
are involved in the fight so yeah I do
7:05
believe that anti-Semitism is being
7:07
weaponized by the university and by the
7:09
government because the university wants
7:12
to do anything in their power to take
7:14
attention away from the ongoing genocide
7:16
in Gaza and they will even
7:20
exploit Jewish trauma to get that to get
7:25
that message
7:26
across Jasmine um is Jewish saf a
7:30
concern for you and your colleagues on
7:32
campus and how do you ensure it given so
7:35
much conflicting information concerning
7:37
what is said to constitute Jewish fears
7:39
including things like you know holding a
7:42
Palestinian
7:46
flag um yeah well our protests have been
7:49
extremely uh inclusive of uh people of
7:53
every faith and every uh ethnicity and
7:56
whatnot um we’ve had Jewish students
7:59
Camp alongside us here at zini we’ve had
8:02
our Jewish speakers at every rally that
8:05
we’ve put on um and that I think that
8:09
really indicates just uh the inclusivity
8:12
of the Palestine movement being a
8:14
movement that is for justice it’s
8:16
against genocide it’s
8:18
anti-racist um and all of that uh and I
8:21
think you know the
8:23
accusations um are just used to deflect
8:26
from the you know real things that we
8:28
are fighting for for the real issues um
8:31
you know happening in Palestine right
8:34
now um Mahmud as a Palestinian can I ask
8:37
how you feel about so much media
8:40
attention being placed on privileged
8:42
students safety during an ongoing
8:45
genocide including that of course of
8:48
Palestinian students not least since of
8:50
course there were three Palestinian
8:52
students shot near an American campus
8:54
back in November
8:56
2023 and not long that was not long
8:58
after a six year-old Palestinian boy and
9:01
his mother were stabbed at their home in
9:04
October last year is there any
9:05
discussion of Palestinian safety
9:08
happening on
9:11
campuses well yeah there for sure is a
9:14
definite issue of anti-palestinian
9:15
racism I mean par itself has its own
9:18
issue with the Department of Education
9:20
inside this country opening an
9:22
investigation to this school because
9:23
they received uh a very massive
9:25
complaint uh over the last semester um
9:28
however despite there being so much
9:31
Prejudice and racism that chases
9:32
Palestinians every day in this country a
9:35
lot of times uh we use uh the grief we
9:38
have to motivate us to take action I
9:40
mean if you just look at Brown
9:41
University after uh three of the men who
9:44
were shot just for wearing cathia
9:45
speaking Arabic uh Hashem was one of
9:48
them and he is a student at Brown
9:49
University and right afterwards they
9:52
created a brown divest coalition to
9:54
demand uh Brown University to divest
9:56
from the Israeli State and also um
9:58
Ensure that none of their money uh is
10:01
going towards investments in genocide
10:03
occupation or paride you see the same
10:06
thing over here with repression really
10:08
energizing people um on campus uh
10:11
however there always is a talk to ensure
10:14
that Gaza and the genocide going on over
10:16
there right now is at the more more
10:18
Forefront of everything we do uh we try
10:20
doing that with having uh our event
10:23
programming circulate and Surround so
10:25
much about what the travesty is going on
10:27
in Gaza right now as well as making sure
10:29
that everyone on the ground is aware of
10:31
what’s going on and committed to staying
10:34
steadfast and demanding Palestinian
10:36
Liberation now weaponizing privilege for
10:39
the cause has been a big talking point
10:41
on campuses listen to this the kids
10:44
involved aren’t just working class
10:47
hardworking kids those are kids with
10:49
privilege those are the kids of Congress
10:52
members and business exacts getting
10:55
arrested that’s a big deal Columbia
10:58
University is where the next generation
11:00
of leaders is supposed to be
11:02
born the next generation of
11:05
oppressors and now we have all of these
11:08
young rich kids using their privilege to
11:11
fight against a system yeah of course
11:14
the system’s freaking out and that’s not
11:16
to say that there aren’t students that
11:18
are on that lawn right now risking
11:20
everything because there are but a lot
11:23
of those kids are weaponizing their
11:25
privilege against the system that gave
11:27
them that privilege
11:30
Fraser um I want to ask you do you think
11:32
that part of the tough response we’re
11:34
seeing from authorities around the world
11:37
to these protests is precisely because
11:40
these are the sons and daughters often
11:42
of important people who are expected to
11:44
uphold the status
11:47
quo yeah I think that that’s definitely
11:50
a factor in what’s happening but and I
11:52
think it speaks to the strength of the
11:53
global solidarity movement that you have
11:56
students like that that are now being
11:58
mobilized to take action
12:00
um the University of war is a fairly
12:02
prestigious institution in the UK um and
12:05
it’s probably it’s tied as the most
12:08
militarized University um in the UK um
12:12
and that position means that students um
12:15
taking action here are very conscious of
12:17
the power that disproportionate power
12:19
that we have and that we wield in the
12:22
encampment and jasine I want to ask you
12:24
what does wielding privilege look like
12:27
at this current juncture
12:31
well I think like the example here at
12:34
Sydney uni is that our university has
12:37
this uh like motto that is leadership
12:40
for good um and I think what they want
12:43
is to turn all the students into the
12:46
future you know prime ministers the
12:48
future um you know bosses and CEOs um in
12:52
the world you know people like the
12:54
current prime minister of Australia
12:56
graduated from Sydney uni Anthony
12:58
albanesi
12:59
um but I think what this student
13:01
movement is about is uh kind of
13:04
condoning uh condemning that kind of uh
13:07
idea of leadership and actually uh
13:10
supporting and uh involving students in
13:14
a movement that is about fighting
13:16
against oppression that is leading uh a
13:19
struggle for uh a free Palestine um
13:23
rather than all the other Pathways that
13:25
our University wants to take us to
13:29
um well most people will have heard
13:31
about the protests at Colombia but have
13:34
you heard of Cal State’s poly Technic in
13:37
Humble because you should Cal State poly
13:40
Technic in Humble they had a sit in in
13:43
one of the University’s buildings and
13:46
like they do the cops showed up and
13:48
these
13:49
protesters barricaded them out of the
13:52
building physically forced them out and
13:55
set up barricades made of chairs tables
13:58
the supply around them and I am so proud
14:02
these students used the skills that we
14:04
were forced to obtain because we were
14:07
constantly in fear of being suddenly
14:09
under attack and for a lot of those
14:11
students they were where in America
14:14
someone in that building was working
14:16
from experience somewhere in that
14:18
building was at least one Survivor and
14:22
it worked they successfully fought off
14:24
the bad guys with
14:26
guns Mahmud uh American student students
14:29
have basically been trained for
14:33
revolt uh I don’t know necessarily if
14:36
trained would be the right where but uh
14:37
there is a thinging that a lot of
14:40
protesters use which is the more they
14:42
try to silence us the latter we will be
14:44
and that just goes to show how um the
14:48
high degrees of repression that face
14:50
college students every single day um
14:52
even though people can be restricted
14:55
from protesting with new protest
14:57
guidelines such as Harvard or people
14:59
people are not even allowed to uh set up
15:01
chairs and you will get arrested for
15:03
that such as University of Florida last
15:05
night where nine people were arrested um
15:08
you can see that so many people utilize
15:10
this repression and choose it to
15:12
energize them mobilize them but also
15:14
learn um in future circumstances on how
15:18
to uh create their new forms of protest
15:21
uh Fraser in the US we’ve seen some
15:23
professors and Administration staff from
15:26
the University standing in solidarity
15:28
with students and even getting arrested
15:31
is that a similar situation in the
15:35
UK yeah our Coalition is made up of
15:38
students and staff and we’ve been
15:40
campaigning together with them for
15:41
months to get the university to
15:43
demilitarize um and as soon as the
15:44
encampment was set up on Friday evening
15:47
we had loads of Staff bringing down
15:48
supplies um putting up tents helping in
15:51
every way they can um and the solidarity
15:54
between students and staff at work right
15:56
now is very very tight and we also
15:59
seeing members of the community come in
16:00
it’s become a real Hub of community
16:03
solidarity um families are bringing
16:05
their kids um drawing pictures in
16:07
solidarity with Gaza um so we really
16:10
seeing staff step up and stand with
16:12
students Jasmine the indigenous people
16:15
of Canada recently gave their approval
16:18
to students to protest on the land of
16:20
McGill University um how does your own
16:24
history and that of the indigenous
16:26
people of Australia connect you to to
16:29
this
16:32
movement um yeah I mean there is a lot
16:35
of solidarity uh amongst uh indigenous
16:38
people here in Australia uh with the
16:41
struggle for a free Palestine um I think
16:43
it is you know a struggle against uh
16:46
racism a struggle uh against you know
16:49
the history of colonization here in
16:52
Australia um and I think yeah like we
16:56
want to constantly uh draw connections
16:59
with um the broader system uh of you
17:02
know Australian racism here that
17:05
continues to see indigenous um you know
17:09
uh incarceration rates be some of the
17:11
highest in the world um and continue to
17:13
see uh you know indigenous people more
17:16
likely to go to prison than go to
17:18
university I think there’s a problem of
17:22
uh systemic uh racism and the lack of
17:25
any sort of um reparations being given
17:29
to indigenous people here um and we
17:32
always are stand in solidarity with that
17:34
struggle and in fact here at Sydney
17:37
University where I am right now is where
17:40
the freedom rides uh uh started that was
17:44
in solidarity with what happened in the
17:46
US where some Sy uni students uh took uh
17:49
bus across uh Regional towns to draw
17:52
attention to the issue of um indigenous
17:55
oppression and land rights so it’s quite
17:58
a like like you know mon Monumental site
18:01
of protests and I think that’s the
18:04
tradition we’re standing in is all these
18:06
historic fights um against Injustice
18:08
Against Racism and all of that now there
18:12
has been some criticism online of how
18:15
the protest movement is Being Framed
18:17
take a look at this yeah I kind of don’t
18:20
like that student protests are being
18:21
labeled antiwar we are part of a
18:24
Liberation movement the hashtag isn’t
18:27
NYU for no War it’s NYU for Palestine
18:31
until our universities divest and
18:33
Palestine is free the students will keep
18:37
mobilizing Mahmud um we’ve seen some
18:40
people online describe this as the
18:42
global student Ina how do you define
18:45
this
18:48
movement uh well personally I definitely
18:51
do like that name a lot uh I do think uh
18:54
it describes what’s going on um on
18:56
college campuses which is communities
18:58
coming together mobilizing and fighting
19:00
to be on the right side of History uh
19:03
which is to have full disclosure and
19:04
divestment uh from the Israeli state to
19:06
make sure Palestine is free within our
19:09
lifetimes uh I mean just whenever I walk
19:12
around the encampment on campus there is
19:14
such a strong community that is staying
19:16
Vigilant uh despite Administration
19:19
coming through the camp every single day
19:21
and routinely checking IDs rout
19:24
routinely threatening graduation
19:26
routinely threatening to even a suspense
19:28
students or some students who are uh
19:32
immigrants and who do not have a
19:34
permanent V uh permanent residents
19:36
inside the United States they have visas
19:38
they’ve been threatened with uh
19:40
disciplinary action and they’re okay
19:42
despite the fact that they can literally
19:43
be deported by the university uh soon so
19:46
I think uh colleges all across the
19:49
country right now uh they’re they are
19:51
mobilizing for Palestinian Liberation
19:53
first and foremost um at the Forefront
19:56
and uh the just the amount of VIs I see
19:59
personally as a Palestinian truly does
20:02
keep the movement alive uh and and keeps
20:04
me going every single day to mobilize
20:06
but also to organize and just stay
20:09
steadfast I want to ask you all uh one
20:12
by one now about the objectives of This
20:15
Global movement Fraser what are the
20:17
objectives of the movement as you
20:20
understand it and where do Palestinians
20:23
sit in defining those
20:27
objectives well our encampment and our
20:30
campaign is first and foremost inspired
20:32
by the struggle of the Palestinian
20:33
people and the people of Gaza we’re
20:35
demanding that our University divest and
20:38
break all ties with armed companies that
20:40
it condemns the genocide the occupation
20:42
the dispossession of the Palestinian
20:44
people that it pledges to help rebuild
20:47
gaza’s education sector and that it
20:49
protects free speech um and solidarity
20:52
with Palestine um and I think at the
20:54
same time as seeing uh this encampment
20:57
as part of the global pal Palestine
20:59
solidarity Movement we also see how the
21:01
struggle of the Palestinian people is
21:02
connected to the struggle of all
21:03
oppressed people against colonialism and
21:06
how the war machine that’s tested in
21:08
Gaza is deployed around the world by the
21:10
United States and its allies to suppress
21:13
Liberation struggles Jas Meine same
21:15
question to you is this an anti-war
21:17
movement a Liberation struggle how do
21:19
you define it and where do Palestinians
21:21
sit within
21:26
that um yeah well I think uh I think
21:30
there isn’t necessarily something
21:32
mutually exclusive about fighting for
21:35
Palestinian Liberation but also fighting
21:37
against War like a lot of the um weapons
21:40
companies that we’re demanding our
21:42
University cut ties with are also
21:44
complicit in uh you know creating the
21:47
weapons used by the Australian military
21:50
that have deployed them you know in when
21:52
they’ve uh joined the invasions of Iraq
21:55
and Afghanistan so I think we want to
21:57
fight against the
21:59
arms companies in order to not only see
22:02
like an end to the genocide happening in
22:05
Gaza but to any future genocide and any
22:07
future War um that sees you know our our
22:11
government and you know governments
22:13
across the world put their own um
22:16
interests uh their imperialist interests
22:19
are beyond the interests uh of ordinary
22:22
people and Mahmud as a Palestinian
22:24
yourself how do you feel about the fact
22:26
this issue is igniting us us campuses
22:29
and Global
22:32
campuses uh yeah like I said earlier it
22:35
truly does uh worn my heart I mean just
22:38
talking to my mother uh the other day
22:40
and she was a organizer for Palestinian
22:42
Liberation in her time as well uh she
22:45
told me she would never expected such a
22:47
global student movement that fights for
22:49
Palestinian Liberation to the extent
22:51
where it is right now but I mean truly I
22:55
feel like just with with this movement
22:57
in general it does show how students are
23:01
now changing their beliefs and how
23:03
there’s been so much Zionist propaganda
23:05
in the past it’s being disrupted I mean
23:08
students who are in universities right
23:10
now will eventually obtain jobs will
23:12
eventually obtain places of power within
23:14
their lives but I truly hope that this
23:17
ends up with change uh to the is Israeli
23:20
regime and for the full decolonization
23:22
and occupation of Palestine and it will
23:25
be free in our lifetime because of the
23:27
student movement and because people have
23:28
shown their solidarity to Palestinians
23:30
and stood on the right side of history
23:32
with Palestinians demanding Liberation
23:34
for their land well one thing we have
23:36
heard from student protesters we’ve
23:38
spoken to is the need to Center
23:41
Palestinians so let’s end this
23:43
discussion by hearing from Farah Amar a
23:46
student from Gaza who was doing a degree
23:48
in media before the Israeli assault
23:50
dramatically changed her life over to
23:53
you
23:54
Farah hello I am Farah I am from Gaza I
23:58
visit at Al University and joined press
24:01

24:04
science sh head but isra War killed my
24:09
dream and I lost my feet and eyes my
24:14
life was beautiful before the world I

want to prepare breakfast and I think go
24:19

24:20

24:32
war and I thank the University students
24:36

24:40
support to stop the war in Gaza

this is democracy now democracynow.org
0:02
we end Today’s Show on yesterday’s
0:06
Mayday activities in New York thousands
0:09
of students workers and others rallied
0:11
in Foley Square in lower Manhattan to
0:15
Mark
0:19
Mayday J Med in this current moment
0:23
after seven months of Zionist aggression
0:25
against hza uh is to underscore that
0:28
there is a popular movement in of
0:30
Palestine not just the students that are
0:32
mobilizing but also organized labor
0:33
across the United States that’s really
0:36
important um after the mass arrests
0:39
yesterday we saw uh faculty at cuni
0:42
announced a sick out for today uh we saw
0:45
NYU uh faculty announc a grade strike
0:49
and we’ve seen other actions being taken
0:50
in support of the students we know the
0:52
United States uh
0:54
manufacturers bombs that are being
0:56
dropped on the people in in in GZA the
0:58
Palestinians
1:00
and the the Arab population more broadly
1:02
and uh in that sense having an organized
1:06
labor movement that is willing to
1:09
advocate for the Palestinian struggle to
1:11
chip away at the strength of Western
1:13
imperialism more broadly is essential
1:16
and for the Palestinians in the the
1:18
inverse is true like it is our our
1:20
mandate to be part of a broader left in
1:22
this country to help to struggle for
1:25
worker rights here understanding that a
1:27
stronger labor movement means less of an
1:30
ability to enact uh this destructive
1:33
foreign
1:35
[Music]
1:42
policy my name is R I’m a Palestinian
1:45
researcher an organizer with the workers
1:47
in Palestine initiative we have
1:49
Palestinian unions have been organizing
1:52
um and calling for the colleagues um in
1:55
the labor movement and unions
1:57
internationally to stop arming Israel so
2:00
since the call in October um in on the
2:03
16th of October uh workers
2:06
internationally have galvanized and of
2:08
organized in solidarity with the call we
2:11
have seen workers in Barcelona uh Port
2:13
declare that they will not be they will
2:15
be stopping armed shipments destined to
2:17
Israel workers in Belgium and transport
2:20
workers have blocked the supply of
2:21
weapons to Israel at the Port of Oakland
2:24
we also saw workers here in the US take
2:26
concrete solidarity and action
2:29
internationally
2:30
workers have been organizing in their in
2:32
their workplaces and in their unions in
2:34
solidarity and to heed the call we see
2:37
this also with the UAW here in the US
2:40
and other unions who’ve been calling for
2:43
ceasefire and picking up the call from
2:45
Palestinian workers and Palestinian
2:47
unions this year the MayDay comes at a
2:50
moment where we Palestinians are
2:52
subjected to an un uh kind of
2:55
undescribable Onslaught um an
2:58
undescribable violence and it’s an
3:00
important moment in our history to
3:02
remember that workers do have the power
3:05
to shape the world workers do have the
3:07
power to influence um to influence kind
3:10
of what happens not only locally but to
3:13
influence uh processes of colonial
3:15
violence and this possession on a on a
3:17
bigger
3:21
[Music]
3:25
scale the very brave students and and
3:29
faculty
3:30
en campuses in the US advocating for
3:33
divestment of Israeli of of military
3:36
Industries is a prime example of uh the
3:40
entrenchment of militarism and Military
3:42
Industries to all aspects of our lives
3:45
uh including our educational
3:47
institutions these campaigns at the
3:49
moment amplify how the campaign the call
3:52
from Palestinian workers to stop arming
3:55
Israel is a transformative demand for
3:58
all of us to be involved in um on
4:00
campuses in our in our various
4:04
workplaces as well as a UAW member and
4:08
as the president of my local UAW must
4:12
use its political power to put teeth
4:14
into their call for a Seas
4:19
fire I am done with the narrative that
4:22
this is a rightwing attack on Free
4:25
Speech this is the Democratic party
4:27
attacking free speech
4:32
Jo attacking fre
4:35
speech it’s not the H these socalled
4:39
Democrats are the ones threatening our
4:41
democracy by silencing anyone who speaks
4:44
against their
4:48
genocide
4:49
UAW must revoke endorsements of these
4:54
politicians if they want to make good on
4:57
their call
4:58
for we bring you message of solidarity
5:02

celebration but since October we cannot

INTERVIEW: Israel will invade Rafah because no one will stop them: Scott… https://youtu.be/slBt0RrwhcI?si=SW_VCxg6CsdPgJaV
Bideoa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slBt0RrwhcI
0:00
we’re extremely fortunate that we are
0:02
now joined every Wednesday by the one
0:04
and only Scott rter former Marine Corps
0:08
intelligence officer and one of the
0:10
world’s one of the world’s most
0:13
formidable and best known arms
0:16
inspectors with whom I’ve worked now for
0:19
more years than either of us care to
0:21
remember but we are still enjoying it
0:24
Scott uh let’s start with what’s
0:27
happening in
0:28
America I never thought I’d see the day
0:32
not when the cops were laying in to
0:34
young people protesting cuz I’m so old I
0:37
saw them killing students at Kent State
0:40
University uh in 1970 54 years ago I saw
0:46
how they treated the young demonstrators
0:49
at the Democratic party convention in
0:51
Chicago in
0:53
1968 uh so I’m getting on uh I’m not
0:56
amazed at what the cops are doing to the
0:59
young
1:00
protesters protesting this war I’m
1:04
totally amazed that all the people that
1:06
would have been protesting against the
1:09
Vietnam War are now cheering on the
1:13
bludgeoning to the ground of those
1:16
protesting this one in Gaza how do you
1:19
feel about
1:21
it George when you first met me back in
1:25
uh before the the invasion of Iraq um I
1:28
I think you recognized that I was
1:30
somewhat uncomfortable with the uh
1:32
concept of public demonstrations I was a
1:36
a military man I was somebody who uh had
1:39
been on the other side of the issue I
1:41
was offended by what the government was
1:43
doing but I was uncomfortable with
1:45
protests and uncomfortable with
1:47
participating in protests um but you and
1:51
others convinced me that that’s what
1:53
needed to be done to get the message out
1:55
so I walked with you proudly uh in
1:57
London and I walked with others proudly
2:01
um you have been consistent in your Um
2:06
passion and uh in the methods of
2:09
expressing your passion to include
2:10
protest uh I was surrounded in the
2:13
United States by people of the Vietnam
2:18
era and they spoke of the necessity of
2:21
Reviving The Spirit of the Vietnam
2:23
protests and they went into the streets
2:26
and they protested and they screamed and
2:28
they did what they did
2:30
and then they disappeared uh because
2:32
they were very much the weakened
2:34
Warriors they were the summer soldiers
2:36
they didn’t have what it took to stick
2:39
out the fight some people did but by and
2:41
large these uh passionate protesters um
2:46
succumbed to the reality of time um the
2:50
reality that uh for a protest to succeed
2:52
it needs to be sustainable um but they
2:55
claim to be morally based and I’ve
2:58
watched them over the years
3:00
um attempt to revive the passion of
3:03
protest and they’ve been unable to do so
3:05
because at the end of the day they lack
3:07
the passion what we’re finding out is
3:10
they lack the conviction that they are
3:13
simply empty suits or should we say
3:15
empty tie dyed t-shirts um these are not
3:18
real um protesters anymore these are the
3:22
fake of the fake um the students today
3:25
have picked up the Baton they are
3:27
running with this issue they are doing
3:30
that which you and I were demanding of
3:32
others back in the day back when we’re
3:34
trying to stop the Iraq War they are on
3:37
their own volition stepping up to the
3:39
battle line they are doing battle and
3:42
they are paying the price these aren’t
3:44
weakened Warriors these aren’t summer
3:46
soldiers these are committed protesters
3:48
for a cause that they deeply believe in
3:51
and at this time at this moment in
3:53
history this is where those Vietnam War
3:57
era protesters those fail protesters of
4:00
the Iraqi War need to rise up and rally
4:03
because this is a just cause this is a
4:06
cause worthy of their sentiment of their
4:09
passions of their sweat and even of
4:11
their blood and yet they are silent not
4:13
just silent George you are right they
4:15
are on the other side these are traitors
4:18
these are treasonous beings these are
4:20
people who mean nothing and I will say
4:22
this right now to the anti-war movement
4:23
in America today go to hell you have
4:26
lost me forever because you are not the
4:29
anti War movement there is a genocide
4:31
taking place in Gaza today there is a
4:33
horrific conflict that is costing tens
4:36
of thousands of innocent Palestinians
4:37
their lives and you are silent not just
4:39
silent but you are on the side of the
4:42
police the
4:48
fugishi
4:50
questionable uh edicts and Orders of the
4:53
governors and the Mayors and the school
4:57
administrators freedom of speech means
4:59
nothing in America today freedom of
5:01
assembly means nothing yes these
5:03
students might be trespassing so what
5:06
what do we want of our students wherever
5:08
you are in the world you want people who
5:10
have open minds and Open Hearts they are
5:13
going to University to learn to become
5:15
good citizens citizens who Empower
5:18
themselves with knowledge and
5:19
information but not just book learning
5:21
but to actually get out and be amongst
5:24
the people to learn the reality of life
5:26
and here they are confronted with one of
5:28
the greatest evils modern history the
5:31
genocide taking place in Gaza and they
5:33
have said no they will not remain silent
5:35
and theyve done what we demand of good
5:37
citizenship they have stood up to be
5:39
count accounted to to hold people
5:42
accountable and the rest of society is
5:44
backing away especially those Hypocrites
5:47
who claim to be anti-war there is no
5:50
anti-war movement in America today I
5:52
mean the anti-war movement is out there
5:54
with the students the students are there
5:56
the students have taken up this cause
5:58
but those who claim to be an antiwar
6:00
those who disappointed me in the leadup
6:02
to the Iraq War and disappointed me ever
6:04
since have proven that that my
6:06
disappointment was not you know falsely
6:09
thrown out there they are a
6:11
disappointment they are hypocrites they
6:13
are the worst of society because they
6:15
claim to be one thing but they have been
6:17
exposed as another I am sickened by the
6:20
fact that the the anti-war movement in
6:22
America today is Silent not just silent
6:24
but sitting on their butts cheering on
6:27
the police that they once claimed to
6:29
want to confront themselves Liars
6:32
Hypocrites the scum of the
6:36
earth is Netanyahu going to invade Rafa
6:40
in your view
6:42
Scott yes because nobody’s going to stop
6:45
him there’s no Force out there right now
6:48
that Netanyahu is afraid of he’s not
6:50
afraid of Joe Biden he’s not afraid of
6:52
the United States he should be but he’s
6:54
not he’s not afraid of the international
6:56
criminal court he’s not afraid of the
6:58
international court of justice he’s not
7:00
afraid of the United Nations he’s not
7:01
afraid of anything so he is going to
7:05
invade Rafa he is going to commit a
7:08
horrific crime and the sad thing is
7:12
Egypt which claimed this would be a red
7:13
line worthy of War will do nothing
7:16
Jordan which claimed this is a red line
7:18
worthy of War will do nothing I believe
7:21
the world will be silent in the face of
7:23
this because at the end of the day our
7:26
governments lack the courage of
7:28
conviction that those students have at
7:30
Columbia University University of Texas
7:32
UCLA and other campus Zimmer College
7:35
across this
7:38
nation the Israelis are paying a price
7:41
on the ground in Gaza uh they hide the
7:45
uh two extent of their casualties but
7:47
Israel is a uh an open Society amongst
7:51
the Jewish people there uh they have
7:54
freedoms that many in Arab countries
7:57
don’t have uh and and they are are not
8:01
able to conceal forever the damage that
8:04
this is doing to their own young people
8:08
a number of the paratroopers who were
8:11
supposed to turn up for Duty in Rafa uh
8:14
absconded a number of soldiers are now
8:16
refusing and many many soldiers have
8:19
been killed and wounded what sort of
8:23
opposition might they face in in the
8:26
tents amongst the tents and among the
8:30
now broken uh slums of
8:35
Rafa well Hamas as a military
8:38
organization has not been defeated
8:40
they’ve been bloodied there let there be
8:41
no doubt there have been casualties on
8:43
both sides and Hamas has suffered
8:45
casualties as well but it is not a
8:46
broken organization we saw how quickly
8:49
once the Israelis withdrew from U the
8:52
north of Gaza and the center of Gaza how
8:54
quickly the Hamas Fighters reasserted
8:57
themselves in that area and the ferocity
9:00
and tenacity of the Hamas FS Fighters U
9:04
you know the proof of that is of course
9:05
where some of Israel’s most hardened uh
9:08
infantry Soldiers the paratroopers and
9:10
from other Elite brigades Golani Brigade
9:12
are saying we don’t want to go back in
9:14
there um this is not a fight we want to
9:17
engage in
9:19
um this will be a bloody fight this will
9:21
be a very bloody fight um but Israel has
9:24
a a new kind of Stormtrooper that many
9:27
in the west are unaware of uh they had
9:29
these reserved battalions of Yeshiva
9:31
students talmudic studies students who
9:33
are Orthodox fanatically so and for five
9:37
years they they get to study in at
9:39
talmudic University while serving in a
9:41
reserve Battalion uh these Fanatics
9:45
these Jewish Fanatics um are the ones
9:49
who are implementing the AMC um you know
9:53
instructions of Netanyahu these are the
9:55
people that you see with their arms
9:56
around each other chanting that they
9:58
will eradicate the seed of AMC these are
10:01
the people who are desperately wanting
10:04
to get into this fight because they
10:05
despise the pal despise is not the right
10:08
word because to despise something you at
10:10
least have to recognize the humanity of
10:12
them they don’t recognize the
10:13
Palestinian people as humans they call
10:15
them Human animals and they are going in
10:18
there and they have no qualms about
10:20
killing children about killing women
10:21
about killing Innocents these are the
10:23
people that executed the people these
10:25
are the worst of the worst these are the
10:27
Israeli equivalents of the is
10:30
isan stats group the SS executioners of
10:33
Nazi Germany and there are
10:36
unfortunately sufficient battalions of
10:38
this nature that Israel will be able to
10:40
amass the military force necessary to
10:43
move against Rafa and these people will
10:45
go against Rafa with no human
10:49
compunction to show Mercy they will be
10:53
merciless in the execution of the orders
10:56
that they will be given
11:00
so we’re about to watch the biggest uh
11:03
single blood bath since the second world
11:07
war George imagine if you would the
11:10
Warsaw Ghetto the infamous Warsaw Ghetto
11:13
everybody’s heard about the Nazi
11:15
eradication of the Warsaw Ghetto um
11:18
we’re about to watch the modern-day
11:21
manifestation of the Nazi eradication of
11:24
the Warsaw Ghetto live on TV with the
11:27
entire world knowing it’s happening
11:29
watching it the buildup and then like
11:32
it’s some sort of perverse pay for TV
11:35
entertainment center to watch it unfold
11:38
and do nothing to stop it um I mean you
11:41
have the United States now who once said
11:43
you can’t do this talking about bringing
11:44
in gazans to the United States is a way
11:47
of opening the door for U the expulsion
11:50
of the gazin civilian population from
11:52
Gaza which has always been the Israeli
11:55
objective from day one to remove the
11:57
Palestinians from Gaza the United States
12:00
is now taking a leading role in doing
12:01
this
12:02
uh this is horrible what’s happening
12:06
it’s a it’s a it’s a nightmare um and
12:09
yet somehow the world has become so
12:14
um immune to the suffering of the
12:16
Palestinians I don’t understand it
12:18
George I don’t know why the world
12:21
doesn’t view the Palestinian people as
12:24
human beings that deserve the dignity
12:27
that deserve everything that we demand
12:30
of ourselves they deserve and yet we’re
12:33
going to watch the eradication of Rafa
12:38
in a military campaign every bit as
12:40
brutal as the Nazi liquidation of the
12:44
Warsaw
12:47
Ghetto well most of the world can see it
12:49
of course it’s uh your country and mine
12:53
and a few others we constitute some 14%
12:58
of the world’s population most of the
13:00
rest of the world can see it uh all too
13:04
clearly I said in my monologue that
13:07
really the West at this point is is
13:10
morally and politically bankrupt do you
13:14
do you share that
13:16
view absolutely I mean bankruptcy you’re
13:19
you’re you’re actually insulting people
13:20
that go through bankruptcy by saying
13:22
that the West is bankrupt um you know
13:24
the concept of bankruptcy implies at one
13:26
point in time that we were solvent um
13:29
there is no solvency here there is no
13:31
recovery we’re worse than bankrupt we
13:33
are decrepit we are rotten um we we we
13:38
we we are falling apart at the scams uh
13:42
we we are the exact opposite of what we
13:46
claim to be which makes it even worse I
13:48
I I respect people more I respect evil
13:51
people who admit that they’re evil I say
13:54
at least you’re honest about who you are
13:56
here in the United States and at the in
13:58
in Europe and in United Kingdom we claim
14:00
to be something that we’re not and in
14:02
the most orwellian fashion we use double
14:05
speak and double action um we we say
14:08
something but we’re going to do the
14:09
exact opposite uh this is beyond
14:13
bankruptcy this is literally the the
14:16
total manifestation of evil we have
14:19
become that which must be eradicated and
14:21
I say this is a proud American uh who
14:24
believes in what America should be but
14:26
not what America has become and at this
14:28
point time if uh if America can’t heal
14:32
itself and it looks like the American
14:34
people more and more incapable of that
14:36
kind of
14:37
self-cure maybe it’s time for the world
14:39
to say um America’s not welcome amongst
14:43
the Civilized Nations anymore and I
14:45
would say that the same holds true for
14:47
the United
14:50
Kingdom yeah alas alas uh we we may be
14:54
two countries divided by a common
14:56
language as Oscar wild said but we are
14:59
are absolutely on the same page uh when
15:02
it comes to these crimes that we are
15:05
discussing uh just lastly and I’m deeply
15:08
grateful for your time will the invasion
15:12
of Rafa make more or less likely the
15:15
long awaited warrant for the arrest of
15:18
Netanyahu and if it is issued what
15:21
difference will it make
15:24
Scott you know one of the interesting
15:26
things about this warrant is that um the
15:29
IC has never talked about it this is a
15:32
figment of netanyahu’s imagination he
15:34
held an emergency session of his
15:36
National Security Council where he
15:38
raised this possibility and then they
15:40
leaked it to the Israeli press and then
15:42
they brought it to the United States I’m
15:44
thinking more and more that this is a
15:46
political Ploy by Netanyahu to heal the
15:49
divisions that existed because prior to
15:52
the talk of the IC the Biden
15:54
Administration was talking about cutting
15:55
off arm sales and um and and you know
15:58
otherwise opposing there was a split
16:00
people were talking about the Divide
16:01
between Biden and Netanyahu today you
16:04
have the White House coming out in
16:05
defense of Israel’s genocidal policies
16:08
you have the United States Congress the
16:11
speaker of the house again passing
16:13
resolutions that seem to be defending
16:15
Israel’s genocidal Behavior this was a
16:17
brilliant uh political move by Benjamin
16:20
Netanyahu to throw something out there
16:23
that the United States he played us like
16:25
a fine-tune fiddle because we have
16:27
problems with the IC and in terms if
16:29
it’s jurisdiction over you know
16:31
potential jurisdiction over American
16:33
soldiers Etc um and we’re vehemently
16:36
against it and so what he’s done is he’s
16:38
taken any potential indictment of him
16:40
and his uh defense minister and chief of
16:43
staff and potentially other Israeli
16:44
soldiers and said to the Americans what
16:46
if this was you and the United States
16:48
said Well it can’t be us therefore we
16:50
must step up to defend you and suddenly
16:53
there Israel and the United States are
16:55
are joined at the hip the United States
16:57
is defending Israel’s genocidal Behavior
17:01
this is a you know disgustingly
17:03
successful political Ploy by Benjamin
17:06
yanyah I don’t think there’s a warrant
17:08
under consideration at the IC and if
17:11
there was given the reaction of the
17:13
United States I don’t think the IC has
17:15
the courage to issue that warrant
17:20
now Scott Richard as always deeply
17:23
grateful and thank you for your wisdom
oooooo
