0:00

Scott I don’t know where to start should

0:03

I start perhaps in the Middle East it

0:06

looked for a few hours at least that

0:10

Israel were going to go for it in

0:13

Lebanon and then it looked as if they’d

0:16

blinked and pulled back and then

0:21

everybody started ordering their

0:22

Nationals to leave Lebanon what’s

0:26

happening is the balloon about to go up

0:28

there

0:30

uh it’s very dangerously so I’m hoping

0:34

that the Israeli Defense Force um which

0:37

still has military Professionals in its

0:41

ranks who know reality when confronted

0:44

by it I need to remind your listeners

0:46

that the last two years Israel has uh

0:50

before October 7th Israel ran major

0:54

military exercises that uh were designed

0:57

to stress test Israel what that means is

1:00

what happens if all of Israel’s enemies

1:02

attack at once what how will Israel

1:04

defend itself um and what Israel realize

1:08

is that they can’t that there is no

1:09

defense that Israel will lose if they do

1:12

the total fight um and this is preg Gaza

1:16

meaning that the two war games that

1:19

Israel uh you know participated and

1:21

thought of planned out um didn’t take

1:25

into account a Gaza in Revolt they

1:29

thought that the worst they’d get out of

1:31

Gaza is in instead they have a fullscale

1:34

war that’s absorbed u a significant part

1:37

of the Israeli military capacity even

1:41

without a war in the North against

1:43

Hezbollah Israel can’t do this and the

1:46

military knows it but this isn’t again

1:48

we have to go back to the old adage you

1:51

know that goes back to sunsu and kwiz

1:53

Wars an extension of politics by other

1:55

means um this is about the political

1:58

survival of Benjamin Netanyahu straight

2:00

up he is a desperate man who is

2:02

unwilling to have his legacy be

2:05

tarnished by the reality of his defeat

2:08

against Hamas and so he is prepared to

2:11

sacrifice and when I say sacrifice I

2:13

mean it in every sense of the word

2:16

sacrifice Israel on the altar of his ego

2:21

Israel not only will not win a war

2:24

against Hezbollah Israel will be

2:27

destroyed by a war with hezb because

2:30

won’t just be a war with hezb the gloves

2:32

will come off everywhere Iran has

2:35

already said if Israel engages in a

2:38

large scale conflict with Hezbollah and

2:40

Lebanon that it will enter and it will

2:43

be a war of

2:44

annihilation this is what we’re talking

2:46

about the literal annihilation of the

2:49

Israeli State Egypt is massing troops at

2:53

Rafa if you think for a second if Israel

2:56

gets involved in a decisive all- incopy

2:59

conflict with Hezbollah in the north

3:01

that Egypt will stand by Idol in the

3:03

South think again Nations that never

3:07

would have thought of confronting Israel

3:10

will jump on the Israeli carcass like a

3:13

starving Jackal because there is a lot

3:16

of animosity in the Middle East Israel

3:18

has built up a deep reservoir of hatred

3:21

and as Israel goes down and it will go

3:24

down it is going down Israel will not

3:27

survive uh what H has started but Israel

3:31

has a choice now to allow for the

3:34

peaceful collapse of Zionism because

3:37

zionism’s day is over it is finished it

3:40

is done it is disgraced as an ideology

3:43

the world will not tolerate it we are on

3:45

the path toward a Palestine it may take

3:48

some time but that’s the direction we’re

3:50

heading or Israel can accelerate not

3:53

only the timing of its defeat but the

3:56

scope and scale of the violence that

3:58

will be attached to this defeat if

4:01

Israel goes to war against Hezbollah

4:04

Israel will be destroyed from the top to

4:07

the bottom from the river to the sea

4:10

that is a guarantee and the Israeli

4:12

Defense Force knows it and here’s where

4:15

it gets dangerous because Israel has

4:17

factored in such a scenario and it’s

4:19

called the Samson option and that’s the

4:22

use of Israeli nuclear force so for all

4:24

the people out there cheering saying

4:26

yeah I can’t wait till Hezbollah and

4:29

Iran take it to Israel understand these

4:32

sick genocidal Maniacs are prepared this

4:37

is the same people who embrace the

4:39

Hannibal Doctrine the Hannibal directive

4:43

they kill their own

4:46

people they kill their own people and

4:50

they will take everybody down with them

4:53

if it gets to that so this is a very

4:56

frightening moment right now in the

4:59

world history this isn’t a continuation

5:02

of you know low-scale Warfare I mean

5:05

because let’s be honest what happened in

5:08

in Lebanon in the 90s and the 80s the

5:10

90s um that led to Israel’s withdrawal

5:13

was low-scale Warfare even August of uh

5:17

2006 low-scale Warfare what we’re

5:21

talking right now is Nation

5:25

termination the scope and scale of the

5:27

violence will be unimaginable on both

5:29

both sides Lebanon will be devastated by

5:33

this conflict absolutely destroyed

5:35

because Israel will go down kicking and

5:37

screaming and at the last moment when it

5:40

becomes clear that the Zion Enterprise

5:43

is about to collapse beneath the weight

5:45

of the military might AR raid against it

5:47

they will lash out using their nuclear

5:49

weapons and then we we have no idea

5:52

where that takes us describe that uh

5:56

apocalypse uh as you describe that

5:58

apocalypse got

6:00

uh a number of questions come into my

6:02

mind number one uh why would the Israeli

6:06

military allow such a low rent

6:10

individual as

6:12

Netanyahu uh to bring about the

6:15

country’s destruction on the altar of

6:18

his ego why would they not Mount uh some

6:22

kind of military coup why would they not

6:25

at least engineer some kind of changing

6:29

of the guard uh at the top of Israeli

6:32

politics number two why would the united

6:35

states allow uh Israel to Embark upon

6:40

such an apocalyptic course and why would

6:44

Israel’s other allies uh do so uh and

6:50

thirdly on the Samson option although

6:53

you partly answered it yourself they are

6:55

ready to kill their own people they

6:58

killed a large number of their own

7:00

people on October the 7th uh pursuant to

7:04

the Hannibal directive uh you and I at

7:07

least both know that firing nuclear

7:09

weapons at Lebanon uh is a suicide

7:13

mission because of course the wind is no

7:16

respector of national boundaries and the

7:20

radiation uh the the nuclear winter

7:23

would afflict uh the state of Israel

7:26

Palestine just as completely as

7:29

Afflicted the state of Lebanon Syria so

7:34

have a go answering those three points

7:36

if you

7:37

will absolutely on the first one

7:41

understand that the prime minister is

7:42

not a dictator um and in Israel even

7:45

though they lack a constitution they

7:48

have basic laws and they have precedents

7:51

uh in a time of War decisions are made

7:55

by a war cabinet and um Israel had a war

8:00

cabinet that had

8:03

Incorporated um some I mean you and I

8:06

know that Benny gance is not a moderate

8:08

but compared to Benjamin Netanyahu um he

8:11

could be painted as a moderate in many

8:14

ways his ideas were equally as radical

8:16

regarding Hamas and Hezbollah but Benny

8:18

gadz was supposed to be the control rod

8:21

to this nuclear reactor that is um

8:24

Benjamin Netanyahu he has resigned as

8:27

have others U what nyaho now has done is

8:31

created a new war cabinet that um are of

8:34

the most sick mentally ill

8:39

um Mass murderous genocide embracing

8:42

zionists imaginable these are people who

8:44

I mean I we know who we’re these are

8:48

people who go on social media and say

8:50

things that are straight out of Adolf

8:52

Hitler’s Playbook when it comes to um to

8:54

the Palestinians in order to step in the

8:59

the Israeli military would have to go

9:01

against Decades of an understanding

9:04

about civil military relationships uh

9:06

that the military is subordinated to

9:08

civilian leadership this would be a

9:11

fundamental decision and it may take

9:13

place they may be at that place right

9:15

now because the Israeli military is not

9:18

ready to commit genocide at Le I mean

9:21

self genocide self um cleansing um and

9:25

so we may see this Revolt remember um

9:29

before October 7th Israel was in a

9:33

fundamental crisis over netanyahu’s

9:36

overreaching regarding uh the courts the

9:39

Judiciary Etc and the at that time the

9:42

Israeli president said Israel is on the

9:44

cusp of a civil war not Civil

9:47

Disobedience not so a civil war with

9:50

Israelis shooting Israelis because of

9:53

the fundamental differences um if there

9:55

was a military intervention it would

9:57

lead to a civil war and all military

10:00

leaders have to keep that in mind when

10:02

they um you know in what they’re

10:04

thinking but when you compare and

10:06

contrast the options here that is a

10:09

better option than allowing Netanyahu to

10:13

um to to take to carry out actions which

10:16

will result in the physical destruction

10:18

of Israel and the Israeli people um so

10:22

we’ll see where the military you it’s a

10:24

big ask of the Israeli military right

10:26

now to step in because it goes against

10:29

presid precedent and it will trigger a

10:31

civil war there’s no doubt about that

10:33

there will be a civil war in Israel and

10:36

many Israeli officers understand that if

10:38

there’s a civil war Israel’s enemies

10:40

could take advantage of that conflict

10:43

and it doesn’t solve any problems that

10:45

maybe your best option is to go in

10:47

strong against Hezbollah and hope for

10:49

the best as opposed to um intervening

10:52

and in gendering the the destruction of

10:55

your own Society no General wants that

10:57

on his shoulders um as for the United

11:00

States George we’re in the middle of the

11:02

stupidest presidential Silly Season in

11:04

American history um where nobody has the

11:09

courage to stand up against um Zionism

11:13

against Israel against the Israeli Lobby

11:15

the Israeli Lobby is openly bragging

11:17

about stealing Congress for Israel they

11:20

are bragging about it how much money

11:22

they put in there was a race in New York

11:26

uh where Israel put in $24 million and

11:29

they are bragging about how they bought

11:31

a member of Congress that’s where we’re

11:34

at George you think any politician right

11:36

now and this uh upcoming election will

11:39

have the courage to stand up and say no

11:41

to Israel Joe Biden can’t he especially

11:44

after that last debate his his handlers

11:47

won’t let him do anything or let

11:48

anything be said that further weakens

11:51

his position the Democrats are desperate

11:54

and the one thing they have going for

11:55

them is the Jewish boote is the Jewish

11:58

Lobby is the Jewish money um I should

12:01

say Zionist money but you know

12:04

increasingly it’s becoming hard in

12:05

America to differentiate between the two

12:08

um so no and and no Ally of Israel that

12:12

isn’t called the United States will go

12:14

against the United States no one will go

12:17

against America no one no one has the um

12:20

courage no one has the stature to go

12:23

against the United States on Israel and

12:25

so this no one’s going to step in and do

12:28

the right thing normally we talk about

12:30

and I’ve spoken this in the past friends

12:32

don’t let friends drive drunk I’ve

12:33

actually used that when I talk about

12:35

America’s relationship with Israel I use

12:37

that back um you know in in the old days

12:40

uh back when I was standing with Israel

12:43

hoping Israel could be turned into a

12:45

nation capable of peaceful coexistence

12:47

with the Palestinians clearly today it

12:49

can’t but um we we don’t do that anymore

12:53

uh which which tells you that Israel is

12:55

not the friend of America we need to

12:58

understand that because friend don’t let

12:59

friends drive drunk Israel is a tool

13:02

that’s used for America for its purposes

13:05

and right now the Arab Israeli conflict

13:07

the Palestinian conflict uh in Israel is

13:10

being used by American politicians to

13:12

position themselves for victory in

13:15

November even though the cost of that

13:18

Victory could be Israel could be the

13:21

Middle East could be the world and then

13:24

you know lastly about the nuclear

13:26

weapons unfortunately Israel like the

13:30

United States has stopped a long time

13:33

ago stopped talking about nuclear

13:34

weapons as a force of deterrence meaning

13:37

I have nuclear weapons we will only use

13:39

them when an existential threat is

13:41

brought up and then the result would be

13:43

so horrific that nobody will dare uh

13:46

come at us Israel today speaks of using

13:49

weapons in Lebanon that have never been

13:51

used before and have unprecedented

13:55

levels of

13:57

Destruction I believe Israel has

13:59

developed a low yield neutron bomb um

14:03

the kind of bomb that the United States

14:05

kind of weapon the United States

14:06

developed for use in Europe to appease

14:08

the Germans meaning that when the

14:10

Soviets came across in the old cold war

14:13

that we would use new Neutron bombs

14:16

highly intense radiation minimal

14:18

destruction very low long-term

14:21

contamination the radiation and the

14:24

blast kills people and then a week later

14:26

you can come back in and live the

14:28

Israelis developed these Neutron bombs

14:31

and these are the weapons that Israel

14:32

will start out with against Lebanon they

14:35

will be dropping these Neutron bombs uh

14:37

designed to take out Hezbollah designed

14:40

to collapse structures Etc in the belief

14:44

that they there is such a thing as a

14:47

limited nuclear war what Israel doesn’t

14:50

understand and I wish Nations like

14:52

Pakistan would make it more clear um

14:55

that if Israel uses nuclear weapons the

14:59

prohibition against using nuclear

15:00

weapons against Israel is lifted and

15:03

that inevitably Israel will be struck by

15:06

a nuclear weapon that says Made in

15:09

Pakistan whether the delivery system is

15:11

Pakistani or Iranian we have yet to see

15:14

but Israel will not get away with using

15:17

nuclear weapons even if they are low

15:19

yield even if they are Neutron

15:23

bombs Apocalypse Now uh my last uh

15:27

question that I have for though I could

15:29

speak to you all night Scott uh when you

15:33

saw the Commander in

15:36

Chief literally melt in front of an

15:40

international television audience in

15:44

Atlanta on

15:46

Thursday Did you not think this is

15:48

similar to the question asked about the

15:50

Israeli power will they really allow a

15:53

two bit politician like Netanyahu to

15:57

destroy their entire State and people

16:01

for how long can the United States

16:04

tolerate the

16:06

fiction but still pregnant with real

16:10

possible

16:12

disaster of having a man with the

16:15

nuclear codes his finger on the nuclear

16:18

trigger who cannot bite his own Nails

16:22

who you wouldn’t send out to buy a loaf

16:25

of bread but has the ability to bring

16:28

bring about the end of the world I mean

16:32

explain

16:36

that George I can’t explain American

16:38

politics today because if in order to

16:41

explain that I’d have to explain while

16:43

the other half of America would allow a

16:44

man named Donald Trump with all of his

16:46

fundamental faults to also be the

16:49

representative yes Donald Trump’s brain

16:51

works that was clearly um on on stage um

16:56

he’s a man who is in complete control of

16:57

his mental faculty

16:59

uh but he’s a fundamentally flawed

17:01

character I just want to remind

17:02

Americans that he withdrew us from the

17:04

intermediate nuclear forces treaty uh

17:06

the treaty that I participated in to get

17:08

rid of nuclear weapons and because of

17:10

America’s actions Russia Today has made

17:12

a decision to rearm itself with the

17:14

weapons we once

17:16

destroyed this is a this is a man who

17:18

allowed John Bolton and um Mike Pompeo

17:21

to sabotage uh his North Korea

17:24

denuclearization um efforts as a result

17:26

today North Korea is fully armed with

17:28

nuclear weapons and is now in an

17:30

alliance with Russia against the United

17:33

States this is a man who withdrew from

17:35

the Iranian nuclear deal um and now has

17:38

created an extraordinarily destabilizing

17:41

situation where Iran is pivoted away

17:43

from the West to the east of forever

17:45

lost to us um and so you know we

17:49

tolerate that on Joe

17:52

Biden we stopped being a nation Where We

17:54

the People matter I mean as soon as we

17:57

allowed corporate money to run rampant

18:00

with citizens united the the Supreme

18:02

Court decision uh the American people

18:05

took themselves out of the equation we

18:08

are a nation that’s literally run by

18:11

Anonymous moneyed political and economic

18:15

Elites um there’s a name for it uh we

18:17

can call it um I I had one senior Biden

18:21

Administration official articulated as

18:23

the inter agency meaning this nebulous

18:26

group of unelected uh professional um

18:29

you know civil servants and Military

18:31

Officers who are the power behind the

18:34

president we were told that Biden

18:35

couldn’t Implement what he wanted to do

18:37

in terms of nuclear posture because the

18:39

in agency wasn’t ready for it my God

18:43

that’s a statement from a Biden

18:44

Administration official saying that we

18:46

can call the inter agency The

18:47

Establishment we can call it the swamp

18:50

we can call it the Deep state but that’s

18:52

the reality Joe Biden is not in control

18:56

of America today we saw that that was

18:58

clear

18:59

on stage that that man is in control of

19:02

nothing so who is in control and who

19:06

voted for them who put them in power

19:08

where are the Constitutional checks and

19:11

balances George my country is

19:13

fundamentally broken right now

19:15

fundamentally broken and if we the

19:17

people of the United States of America

19:19

in order to form a more perfect union

19:21

don’t start embracing the document that

19:23

begins that way in its Preamble The

19:25

Constitution and the values and Shrine

19:28

there uh we are a lost cause a

19:31

fundamentally Lost

19:35

0:00

it has always been surprising for people

0:02

that turkey is a natto member that’s

0:04

because it’s quite different from the

0:05

West dominated NATO however if there is

0:08

an unfulfilled wish turkey wants to be

0:10

fulfilled it’s getting accepted into the

0:13

EU but years have passed and that

0:15

doesn’t seem like a possibility that’s

0:18

when turkey decided to make a master

0:20

move it increased its talks with bricks

0:23

ultimately announcing that it would join

0:24

it Turkish president RP T erdogan has

0:28

met Russian president Vlad Putin and

0:31

discussed becoming a powerful bricks

0:32

member soon and the EU cannot fathom

0:36

that because the EU has Western

0:38

countries in it and brics is challenging

0:40

the west and all its alliances the EU

0:43

doesn’t want turkey to join brics and

0:46

it’s not that simple pressure is being

0:48

applied on Turkey so how did turkey

0:51

become so precious to the EU and what

0:53

will it do will it join bricks or the EU

0:57

let’s find that out in this video since

1:00

the 1940s turkey doubtful of Moscow

1:03

aligned itself with Washington and soon

1:05

after joined NATO the military Alliance

1:08

formed to protect Europe against Soviet

1:10

attack during the Cold War however since

1:13

coming to power in 2003 president rpte

1:17

progan has gradually repositioned turkey

1:20

as an independent power free to forge

1:22

new alliances even at the risk of

1:24

upsetting old ones but what has

1:27

changed well during much of the cold War

1:30

Russia was the Hostile neighbor that

1:32

forced turkey to seek powerful allies

1:34

help defend its territory in the past

1:37

decade however turkey has been courting

1:39

some of Washington’s adversaries Russia

1:42

China and Iran while still remaining a

1:45

natto member seeking a major role in

1:48

world affairs erogan has opened numerous

1:50

diplomatic missions in Africa and Latin

1:53

America he has also vowed to make turkey

1:55

the first NATO member to join the

1:57

Shanghai cooperation organization a

2:00

china-led International Security Group

2:02

originally focused on Central Asia but

2:04

now expanding toward the Middle East

2:07

Russia has become a significant economic

2:09

partner supplying nearly half of

2:11

turkey’s natural gas Imports and sending

2:14

a record 4.7 million tourists to the

2:16

country last year in 2019 turkey

2:20

acquired Russian S400 surfac to- a

2:23

missiles despite objections from its

2:25

NATO allies additionally Russian State

2:28

company rosatom is constructing a $20

2:31

billion nuclear power station on

2:33

turkey’s Mediterranean Coast with plans

2:35

for another in the future erdogan cannot

2:38

ignore all this he knows the Western

2:41

allies can bring valuable benefits

2:44

therefore why not have them both instead

2:46

of picking one instead of Burning

2:48

Bridges erdogan aims to gain more

2:50

leverage with historical allies by

2:52

demonstrating that turkey has

2:54

alternative Partners so far erdogan’s

2:57

approach seems to be yielding economic

2:59

benefit benefits Russia’s Investments

3:01

are helping to stabilize turkey’s

3:03

troubled economy which Rogan needs to

3:05

shore up before seeking re-election next

3:08

year in August erdogan and Putin agreed

3:11

to expand economic cooperation erdogan

3:15

asked for Price discounts on Russian

3:17

energy Imports and requested to pay for

3:19

them in Turkish Lyra here’s a reminder

3:22

to please like and share the video and

3:26

videos on Africa’s geopolitics economy

3:29

and change ing landscape let’s continue

3:32

now but now turkey has reached to join

3:35

bricks and for the West especially the

3:37

EU things seem getting out of control

3:40

well this is happening because of

3:41

turkey’s growing frustration over the

3:43

stalt progress in its European union

3:46

accession talks Turkish foreign minister

3:49

hen fiden said that if the EU showed

3:51

more willingness to advance the talks

3:53

turkeyy stance on certain issues might

3:56

differ Anora has been striving to

3:58

Breathe new life into its bid to join

4:01

the EU which remains one of its largest

4:03

trading partners at the same time turkey

4:06

is seeking to forge new alliances that

4:08

could help bolster its $1 trillion

4:10

economy despite its long-standing NATO

4:13

membership and integral role in Europe’s

4:15

defense system turkey has encountered

4:18

significant roadblocks since initiating

4:20

its EU accession talks in

4:23

2005 the EU has consistently pointed to

4:26

turkey’s Democratic deficiencies as a

4:29

Major Impact impediment to its

4:30

membership fiden pointed out the

4:32

necessity for turkey to seek economic

4:34

alliances Beyond NATO he said that there

4:37

is a military Alliance within NATO but

4:40

an economic Alliance has not

4:42

materialized therefore turkey search has

4:44

been underway this means turkey is

4:47

looking for an economic block and will

4:49

enter whoever allows it to First enter

4:52

moreover fiden mentioned that turkey

4:54

might pursue an upgraded dialogue

4:56

partnership with the association of

4:58

Southeast Asian Nations or Asen he

5:01

pointed out that bricks countries are

5:03

working on developing a lending system

5:05

and facilitating trade in local

5:07

currencies a move that aligns well with

5:09

anora’s economic goals to add more

5:12

pressure fiden said that the different

5:14

thing about bricks compared to the EU is

5:16

that it includes all civilizations and

5:19

races it it’s clear that turkey’s

5:21

engagement with bricks reflects its

5:23

broader strategy to diversify its

5:25

International alliances and reduce its

5:28

Reliance on Western dominated

5:29

institutions the economic opportunities

5:32

presented by bricks are significant for

5:34

turkey membership in bricks could open

5:36

up new markets for Turkish products and

5:38

services given that the block represents

5:41

around 40% of the world’s population its

5:43

GDP is 65.7 trillion compared to the

5:48

g7’s GDP of $55 trillion and the eu’s

5:52

$19

5:53

trillion therefore turkey stands to

5:56

benefit from increased investment flows

5:58

and Technology transfers from bricks

6:00

countries particularly China and Russia

6:03

these Partnerships could significantly

6:05

enhance turkey’s technological

6:07

capabilities and infrastructure

6:09

development both crucial for its

6:11

economic growth geopolitically aligning

6:14

with bricks allows turkey to balance its

6:16

relations with Western countries while

6:18

enhancing its influence in a multi-polar

6:20

world order this move is seen as a way

6:23

for turkey to strengthen its

6:25

geopolitical standing without abandoning

6:27

its ties with NATO and the EU

6:30

and guess what the EU has done it

6:33

applied pressure however since turkey is

6:36

not its member the pressure can be

6:38

handled by the Turkish president

6:40

therefore the EU decided to make the

6:42

hard choice for now which can be

6:44

replaced by allowing turkey to be its

6:46

member as of now the European Union is

6:49

accelerating its efforts to strengthen

6:51

its relationship with turkey with a

6:53

focus on enhancing trade ties in the

6:55

coming year this initiative comes as

6:57

ankor increasingly turns to other

7:00

multilateral groups frustrated by the

7:02

slow progress with Brussels the EU has

7:05

outlined a three-stage plan to improve

7:07

relations with turkey this plan includes

7:10

increasing highlevel meetings resuming

7:12

the European investment bank’s

7:14

operations in turkey and initiating new

7:17

discussions to modernize the Customs

7:18

Union between both sides this shows that

7:21

the EU does not want to lose turkey

7:24

rather the EU is Keen for turkey to help

7:27

prevent the circumvention of sanctions

7:29

against against Russia additionally

7:31

turkey plays a pivotal role in managing

7:33

irregular migration flows toward Europe

7:36

and serves as a crucial defense Ally

7:38

within NATO despite these efforts turkey

7:42

has grown increasingly dissatisfied with

7:44

its broader relationship with Europe

7:47

particularly in the trade and defense

7:49

sectors senior Turkish officials have

7:52

voiced frustration over delays and

7:54

obstacles related to issues such as Visa

7:56

free travel and the Customs Union this

7:59

discontent has driven the Turkish

8:01

government to explore alternative

8:03

arrangements with other blocks you see

8:06

and every issue with the EU and the West

8:08

turkey uses the rhetoric to look for

8:10

other options as the EU navigates

8:13

bilateral sensitivities among its member

8:15

states the European commission has

8:17

proposed a sequenced proportionate and

8:20

reversible approach this includes a new

8:23

highlevel Dialogue on trade initiated on

8:25

July 8 where both sides addressed trade

8:28

irritance and effort to prevent the

8:30

circumvention of sanctions a third

8:32

Dialogue on migration and security may

8:35

occur before the summer break for many

8:38

this means the EU is in closed door

8:40

talks with turkey on its membership a

8:43

commission spokesperson stated that the

8:45

development of EU turkey political

8:47

economic and trade relations is based on

8:50

conclusions adopted by EU leaders in

8:52

April during that meeting leaders

8:55

endorsed a gradual strategy to improve

8:57

ties with turkey emphasizing that that

8:59

Anchor’s constructive engagement will be

9:02

instrumental in advancing bilateral

9:04

cooperation they also highlighted the

9:06

importance of progress in the Cypress

9:08

settlement talks France and Germany

9:11

among other member states have stressed

9:13

the need for reciprocity and gradual

9:16

progress based on turkey’s actions some

9:19

countries are particularly keen on

9:20

seeing more effort from Turkey regarding

9:23

the CATE issue it appears that turkey’s

9:25

genius plan has worked the EU is making

9:28

all efforts to smoothen turkey’s road to

9:30

membership before it becomes a bricks

9:32

member however it’s hard to decipher

9:35

what turkey really wants experts believe

9:38

that turkey is doing all this as a

9:40

balancing act in other words this is

9:42

being done so the EU accepts turkey into

9:45

the block with no question of joining

9:47

bricks later on however given erdogan’s

9:50

bid to diversify there are chances that

9:52

turkey will continue to get benefits

9:54

from the EU and Bricks as well without

9:57

joining anyone for turkey the this will

9:59

be more advantageous than any other

10:01

thing both the EU and Bricks will try to

10:04

offer concessions and favors and turkey

10:07

can use it for as long as it wants what

10:10

do you think does turkey really want to

10:12

join brics or is it doing so to pressure

10:14

the EU into accepting it as an EU member

10:17

do you believe turkey can be allowed to

10:19

be a member of bricks and the EU at the

10:21

same time in the comment section right

10:24

below share your thoughts on what if

10:26

Turkey announces it does not care about

10:28

the EU and wants to be a member of

oooooo

0:04

do you think that zalinsky wants some

0:06

sort of political settlement when he

0:08

calls Donald Trump and talks with

0:11

him I don’t know

0:14

um desperate men do desperate things you

0:17

so um and you got to deal the hand that

0:20

you’re dealt with I mean the bottom line

0:22

is if zalinski still the president of

0:25

Ukraine um you know when uh the next

0:28

president of United States is sworn in

0:30

in January um he’s going to have to talk

0:32

to one of them after November um you

0:35

know he’s going to have to zalinski is

0:37

have to deal you know adjust to the

0:39

reality it isn’t going to be Joe Biden

0:41

it’s either going to be a KLA Harris

0:43

presidency or Donald Trump presidency

0:44

that’s the reality um so talking to

0:48

Donald Trump is uh you know it’s a

0:52

necessity if you’re zilinski um but

0:55

remember it’s again it’s the actions of

0:57

a desperate man his this is a man who

0:59

just literally a month ago was saying

1:02

there will be no negotiations with the

1:03

Russians and now he’s saying there have

1:04

to be negotiations why because the

1:08

reality has changed Russia is not just

1:12

prevailing on the battlefield they’re

1:13

dominating on the battlefield there’s

1:15

nothing Ukraine could do to stop what is

1:18

happening to them right now they are in

1:19

a desperate

1:20

situation and um if you if you think

1:23

about it from Donald Trump you know

1:25

everybody’s like Trump’s going to

1:26

withdraw support to Ukraine and and no

1:28

he’s not please people please don’t be

1:31

stupid because the withdrawal from

1:34

Ukraine and all that stuff is you know

1:36

predicated on the War ending and the war

1:39

ends only when Donald Trump makes two

1:41

perfect phone calls that’s his term

1:44

perfect phone calls because all because

1:45

Donald Trump and the ultimate narcissist

1:48

everything he does is perfection and he

1:49

will make the perfect phone calls and he

1:52

will call Ukraine and say you must agree

1:55

to end this war and now Trump has put

1:58

out a plan he’ll say You must give the

2:01

Russians

2:02

Crimea I’m like Russia already has it

2:05

but that’s okay um but we will get

2:08

Russia to give you

2:10

back zapia Kon donet

2:14

lugans and zalinsky because that’s

2:17

zelinsky’s formula right now willing to

2:19

you know he’s willing you know Crimea

2:21

okay but the others have to come

2:23

back they’re not talking about the 19

2:26

they’re not talking about 1991 borders

2:28

they’re talking about 2022 borders

2:30

um okay so now zilinski goes yeah I’m

2:33

all in because he has no choice he’s

2:34

dying it’s over but see zilinski knows

2:37

something that Putin will never accept

2:39

this now Trump’s gonna make the second

2:42

perfect phone call to Putin and Putin’s

2:44

gonna say pound sand you orange faac

2:47

reptile um no Russia’s never going to

2:50

give up four territories hell Russia’s

2:52

going for broke on others I believe L

2:54

lavro said no no Russian in Ukraine will

2:57

live under the Ukrainian um

3:00

you

3:01

know the the Ukrainian rule given

3:05

Ukraine’s history of uh attacking

3:07

Russians culturally linguistically Etc

3:10

well my God what does that mean to

3:12

Odessa Car

3:14

nepos n ofsi others sort of means that

3:18

Russia’s gonna take it and Putin warned

3:21

he put a peace plan out there before

3:22

zelinsky’s little magic show in uh in

3:25

Switzerland he said that’s the peace

3:26

plan it’s the best one you’re ever going

3:28

to get it was a good one zinski said no

3:31

and he said if you turn this down there

3:34

will be no more the next negotiation

3:37

that’s had will be are dictating the

3:39

terms of unconditional surrender to you

3:42

and that’s where we’re at right now

3:43

Russia will end up dictating the terms

3:45

now Trump back to his phone call when

3:47

Putin tells him to pound sand and hangs

3:49

up the phone what’s Trump’s solution he

3:51

will flood Ukraine with weapons and now

3:55

you understand why zalinsky is calling

3:57

Donald Trump because that’s his goal to

4:00

get America to flood him with weapons he

4:03

thinks that somehow that will enable

4:05

Ukraine’s survival bad news for zinsky

4:08

one America doesn’t have weapons to

4:09

flood him with two U the American

4:14

political reality uh won’t sustain this

4:16

Trump is being elected by a MAA base

4:19

that’s looking to disentangle America

4:22

from International conflicts not double

4:24

down on stupid um and and then three

4:28

Ukraine just isn’t going to survive

4:31

I mean let’s you know we got a situation

4:33

on the battlefield right now um Ukraine

4:36

has a number of brigades that are pretty

4:39

good brigades well trained well-led well

4:41

equipped and they’ve become sort of fire

4:43

brigades where Ukraine pulls them out

4:45

plugs them in on the line where things

4:47

happen to stabilize they Counterattack

4:49

they stop the Russians um and two of

4:52

these brigades are the 47th and the 31st

4:54

two of Ukraine’s better brigades um

4:57

there’s a battle going on right now 47th

5:00

was pulled out of the line brought up

5:01

and supposed to Counterattack as they

5:04

were getting off the train two esconder

5:05

missiles hit took out a battalion’s

5:07

worth of infantry took out a whole bunch

5:08

of equipment the 47th is weak it was

5:11

brought into the battle it doesn’t have

5:12

the manpower to do it they’ve been

5:14

pushed aside by the Russians totally

5:17

combat ineffective the 31st Brigade is

5:20

now there expecting support from the

5:21

47th they didn’t get

5:23

it and uh the Russians have launched an

5:26

attack that seems to have surrounded one

5:29

or two battalions of the 31 pushing the

5:31

rest back so the 31st is facing imminent

5:34

destruction the 47th has been that’s two

5:36

of their best

5:38

brigades that’s what the war in Ukraine

5:40

looks like today and it’s only going to

5:41

get worse tomorrow and worse the next

5:44

day it can’t be reversed it can’t be

5:46

reversed there’s no manpower to reverse

5:48

it Russia has Manpower they’re getting

5:52

stronger Russia has the equipment

5:53

they’re getting stronger General

5:54

Christopher cavoli in speaking to um an

5:57

audience in Europe you know it’s it’s

5:59

It’s Curious you got to listen to what

6:01

he said because he said this war will

6:03

end and No Matter How It

6:06

Ends we will be face a strengthened

6:10

Russian army a larger Russian army a

6:14

welle equipped Army Combat tested

6:18

Army that represents an angry

6:22

Russia did I just describe a defeated

6:25

Russia no I described a Victorious

6:28

Russia so when says this war will end

6:31

and either way it ends what he’s saying

6:33

is we’re going to lose what he’s saying

6:35

is we have lost this war and we have to

6:38

adjust to the reality that a Victorious

6:40

Russia with a very large army capable

6:42

Army Combat tested Army um and an angry

6:45

Russia is our new reality um Ukraine has

6:49

lost this war everybody knows it it’s

6:52

just a question of when that uh

6:56

dictation of the unconditional terms of

6:58

surrender will take place in uh July and

7:02

August of 1944 the Soviets launched an

7:05

operation Operation by gra against the

7:08

uh Germans it’s also known as the

7:10

destruction of army group Center more

7:12

than a million Germans were wiped off

7:13

the map significant uh change that was a

7:17

strategic defeat of Germany strategic

7:19

Victory by

7:20

Russia operation bation ended in August

7:23

of

7:25

1944 General Krebs didn’t sign the uh

7:28

unconditional terms of surrender in

7:30

Berlin until May of

7:34

1945 what I’m trying to get at is

7:37

anybody who says well if Russia’s

7:39

winning why is the war going

7:41

on men Die

7:44

Hard the Germans continued to fight till

7:46

The Bitter

7:47

End kreb signed a surrender document on

7:50

May 8th final terms were agreed to by

7:53

the Russians on May 9th that’s why they

7:55

celebrate Victory Day on May

7:56

9th General Steiner commanded more than

8:00

a million Germans in Austria who

8:02

continued to resist the Soviets in

8:05

fighting they claimed tens of thousands

8:07

of lives in those final few days up

8:09

through May 11th and

8:11

12th the Germans fought hard the Germans

8:14

died hard they were defeated but the

8:17

idea that Ukraine’s just going to roll

8:19

over and play dead is wrong those two

8:22

brigades I talked about the 47 to 31st

8:24

they didn’t get their reputations uh by

8:26

people just writing about them they

8:27

earned it on the battlefield you won’t

8:30

find a Russian officer or a Russian

8:31

soldier that will speak ill of those two

8:33

brigades or many of the other Ukrainian

8:36

brigades they recognize ukrainians as

8:38

professional Warriors tough Warriors

8:41

hell they say they’re the same as we are

8:43

because from their perspective they are

8:44

the same slavics Slavic people um the

8:49

ukrainians will fight hard they will die

8:51

hard but they’re going to lose that’s

8:55

inevitable it seems that behind the

8:57

scene Europeans are trying to do their

9:00

best in order to convince ziny to

9:02

continue this conflict do you understand

9:05

what would be the benefits of this type

9:08

of behavior for

9:13

Europeans I don’t think we should say

9:15

Europeans I should think we should say

9:18

um a very narrow segment of the

9:21

political and economic Elite of Europe

9:24

who are currently empowered in

9:26

leadership positions but I would I would

9:28

be Lo to um to claim they speak for all

9:31

of Europe um I think much of Europe

9:35

right now is worried about the economy

9:37

worried about immigration worried about

9:39

issues such as that um fact is many

9:43

Europeans are tired of this Ukrainian

9:45

conflict tired of Ukrainian refugees in

9:47

their country you know they’re saying

9:49

send them home so I wouldn’t say

9:51

Europeans I I would say this a political

9:54

economic Elite who have backed

9:55

themselves into a political Corner

9:57

because they’ve invested so much

9:58

political capital in the notion of

10:00

sustaining the Ukrainian conflict to

10:02

achieve the Strategic defeat of

10:04

Russia uh they can’t back away if they

10:07

suddenly say oh I was wrong oops um we

10:11

just wasted uh you know billions of

10:14

hundreds of billions of Euros of your

10:16

money and U we’ve done trillions of

10:18

dollars of damage to the European

10:19

economy because of our sanctioning of

10:21

Russia oh that was a

10:23

mistake well when politicians start

10:26

acknowledging mistakes of that magnitude

10:28

how much longer do they stain power in

10:31

uh systems that have some sort of

10:33

democratic representation through the

10:35

the vehicle of an election no they get

10:38

tossed out so you have politicians right

10:40

now in order to remain in power have to

10:41

continue to sell Russia as a threat

10:43

worthy of continued investment in the

10:46

military Enterprise and that’s what

10:48

we’re seeing right now but the Europeans

10:50

don’t support it just this political and

10:52

economic Elite uh because they have to

10:55

do this because that’s the only way they

10:56

stay in power uh they can’t say oops we

10:59

made a mistake it’s time to transition

11:01

to

11:02

peace there will be a transition to

11:04

peace eventually because Europe like

11:06

Ukraine is destined to lose but when

11:09

that transition is made it’ll be made by

11:11

people who don’t share the same surnames

11:13

as the people who populate the

11:16

senior

11:18

political positions in Europe

11:21

today when it comes to the situation

11:24

between oron and

11:27

fito being cut off from the Russian gas

11:31

by

11:33

ukrainians do you think that who’s

11:36

behind

11:37

this type of attitude is

11:41

Europeans are we are we talking about

11:44

Europeans being behind this or it’s the

11:47

United States just giving the green

11:49

light to Ukraine to do that I think what

11:52

we’re looking at here is um a mixture of

11:54

both but primarily the Europeans uh the

11:57

European Union seeks to punish

11:59

Hungary and Slovakia orbon and fito for

12:03

taking policy positions that are um that

12:07

deviate significantly from the policy

12:10

position of the rest of the European

12:12

Union so this is designed to create um

12:15

economic problems for these two under

12:18

the premise that uh political leaders

12:22

who can be um painted with uh the the

12:26

concept of you know economic hardships

12:30

that they’re responsible for that can be

12:32

pushed out voted out removed um the

12:36

United States I think would have a

12:37

different position on this

12:41

one we we are looking at a situation

12:44

where we are trying to keep Ukraine

12:49

alive I don’t know the exact I think

12:51

it’s 60% of Ukraine’s electricity comes

12:55

from Hungary right now and Hungary said

12:57

we’re going to hit the off switch

13:00

so you know well meanwhile Russia is

13:02

working with other alternatives for

13:04

instance bringing oil and gas from Turk

13:06

stream up through the South um you know

13:09

through Bulgaria um into um into Hungary

13:14

um and once they get that online it

13:16

doesn’t matter what the ukrainians did

13:17

but Hungary and um Slovakia said we will

13:20

punish Ukraine for this and they will

13:22

punish Ukraine by disconnecting them

13:24

from their respective electric grids and

13:26

that’s the death sentence for Ukraine

13:28

especially with winter coming the

13:30

Russians having destroyed so much of the

13:31

Ukrainian energy infrastructure so you

13:35

know Ukraine will be desperate for all

13:37

the power it can get and Hungary and

13:40

Slovakia provide significant amount of

13:42

that power and when they hit the off

13:44

switch it’s a game set match Ukraine

13:46

won’t survive the winner and I don’t

13:48

think the United States um supports that

13:52

but we have a European Union right now

13:54

um that is angry at Hungary and Slovakia

13:58

and desperate desperate right now um to

14:01

be seen by the world as representing a

14:04

unified face against Russia when the

14:06

reality is far

14:07

different I don’t know if you heard that

14:10

the Polish foreign minister Sikorski is

14:12

talking about the need to create

14:13

unbearable condition for the ukrainians

14:16

in the EU in order to force them to

14:18

return home to send them to the

14:20

battlefield this is a country that has

14:24

half the population in it had before

14:27

this conflict started how much more they

14:30

are willing to put to inflict suffering

14:33

on Ukraine in order to achieve I don’t

14:36

know imag some imaginary pictures that

14:39

they have in their

14:42

mind I don’t know they they’ve shown an

14:44

ability to facilitate a conflict that

14:47

should have never have started but once

14:49

it did start should have ended in April

14:52

2022 um but Europe is pushed to continue

14:55

this conflict because Europe is uh

14:57

bought into an americ

15:00

U you know strategic Vision that has

15:03

that seeks the Strategic defeat of

15:05

Russia and Europe now has double down on

15:07

everything on the premise that Russia

15:09

will be strategically defeated um and so

15:13

Sikorski and and others you know they’re

15:16

part of this political economic Elite

15:18

that may not survive if U if Ukraine is

15:22

finally defeated Russia wins they will

15:24

be confronted with the consequences of

15:26

their policies Etc so they just continue

15:29

to double down on stupid double down on

15:30

stupid they’ve never cared about the

15:32

people of Ukraine why do you want them

15:35

to start caring now how can you claim to

15:37

CLA to care about a people when you’ve

15:39

allowed you know who knows what the

15:41

death toll is well over a half a million

15:43

dead Ukrainian soldiers uh probably over

15:46

a million uh wounded ukrainians many of

15:49

them never to recover tens of millions

15:52

of ukrainians displaced from their

15:54

homes um refugees internally and

15:58

externally entire generation of

16:00

Ukrainian children who will never live a

16:02

normal life uh because they’re either

16:05

refugees or because their society has

16:07

been torn aunder

16:10

um I mean we can just go on and on and

16:12

on Europe has never cared about

16:16

Ukraine and it’s ironic that sakori is

16:19

the man making this statement because

16:22

while sori is saying that I believe it

16:24

was the Polish prime minister that said

16:28

um Ukraine can never even consider

16:30

entering the European Union until they

16:32

make amends over volin the volin

16:34

massacre the slaughter of poles over

16:37

110,000 polls by Ukrainian Ultra

16:39

nationalists the same Ultra nationalists

16:42

who dominate the Ukrainian government

16:44

and Military today um so there’s no love

16:47

lost between Poland and Ukraine I think

16:51

the polls the Polish leadership

16:53

secretly

16:55

Revel in the destruction that’s being

16:58

dealt to Ukraine

16:59

and there’s no love loss between Europe

17:01

and Ukraine there was no bound I mean in

17:04

what Universe does Ukraine say we’re not

17:07

just a member of Europe but a leading

17:09

member of Europe we Define Europe it’s

17:12

only because of the hyper politicized

17:14

nature of you know trying to justify the

17:16

support for Ukraine that they’ve

17:17

elevated zalinski into near mythical

17:20

tchilian status and Ukraine Ukrainian

17:24

propagandists are say the center of the

17:25

world is around us us alone it’s as if

17:28

charag never existed it’s as if Napoleon

17:32

never existed bismar never existed we

17:35

could go on and on and on with great

17:37

European leaders in history that defined

17:40

what Europe is today um none of them

17:43

have a Ukrainian Cy Ukraine is a

17:46

manufactured State it’s an artificial

17:48

State it’s a fake State uh and Ukrainian

17:52

nationalism has created this now the

17:54

Europe has breathed life into this

17:56

notion but at the end of the day no one

17:58

in Europe likes

18:00

Ukraine Europe is not willing to die for

18:03

Ukraine they’re willing to let

18:05

ukrainians die to the last Ukrainian for

18:07

a proxy war that isn’t about promoting

18:11

Ukrainian goals and objectives but using

18:14

Ukraine to achieve European goals and

18:17

objectives against Russia Ukraine is a

18:19

tool a tool that will be discarded a

18:22

tool that they’re willing to break and

18:24

they are breaking that’s the reality of

18:27

it let’s stop pretending that Europeans

18:30

care about ukrainians they don’t right

18:33

now in every brothel in Europe there are

18:35

Ukrainian women there that the European

18:37

men enjoy sexually

18:41

exploiting that’s the reality of it

18:44

Ukrainian women will feed the brothel of

18:47

Europe for decades whether they leave

18:50

Ukraine because there is no economic

18:52

future for them or they’ve been kicked

18:54

out of Ukraine as this permanent Refugee

18:57

class that will never get their feet on

18:58

on the

18:59

ground that’s the reality of it and if

19:02

you don’t acknowledge that reality then

19:04

you’re

19:07

blind Dimitri pesov is talking about

19:10

that Trump represents the US political

19:13

Elite all of which suffer from

19:16

russophobia they think that Trump

19:18

wouldn’t bring any sort of

19:21

difference to the conflict between

19:24

Russia and the United States on the part

19:26

of the Americans in your opinion what

19:30

would that bring in terms of the

19:32

relationship between Russia and the

19:34

United States is Trump capable of

19:36

bringing some sort of improvements to

19:38

this

19:39

relationship no Trump is incapable of

19:41

bringing improvements to this

19:43

relationship but Trump doesn’t represent

19:46

anything he doesn’t represent the

19:47

American political Elite he is the

19:49

opposite of that but all of America’s

19:51

been infected with russophobia and

19:54

Russia has given up on trying to cure it

19:57

I mean two years ago when I met with

19:59

anaton Antonov that was one of his his

20:01

main concerns he’s the Russian

20:03

Ambassador the United States main

20:04

concern how to overcome russophobia when

20:07

I saw him last month it’s not even on

20:09

his lips Russia doesn’t care Russia’s

20:11

giving up America is is is is to be

20:14

isolated Russia’s moved forward with

20:16

bricks and that’s the that’s the the

20:18

harsh reality the sad reality

20:21

Russia um you know while they’re not

20:23

promoting war with America they seek to

20:24

avoid conflict with America Russia

20:27

stopped being concerned about what

20:28

America thinks they’re not trying to win

20:31

Americans over they’ve given up on that

20:34

Russia’s focused now they’re no longer

20:35

Russia’s no longer talking about being a

20:37

partner to the West Russia’s talking

20:40

about its new status as a Eurasian

20:42

nation and it’s pivot to Eurasia that’s

20:45

the focus last time I checked neither

20:47

the United States nor Europe were part

20:48

of Eurasia Russia is

0:00

the conversation I think you said that

0:01

Hamas is not a terrorist group but in

0:04

their Charter it says something about

0:06

wanting to kill all the Jews so how do

0:08

you reconcile that first of all they

0:10

don’t say this in the chter they say

0:13

teral things about the Jews back so I

0:16

quote in in the um in the

0:19

Quran the uh Hamas uh is part of the

0:23

Palestinian Liberation

0:25

Organization and part of that Liberation

0:27

Organization is left leftist secularist

0:32

part of it is Nationalist centralist and

0:34

part of it is religious all the

0:36

anti-colonialist movements in the Arab

0:38

world were religious secular and

0:42

centralist and uh uh whenever uh when

0:45

they were United they succeeded in

0:47

decolonizing the countries and when one

0:51

group was more dominant than the others

0:54

uh it lost the support of the people and

0:56

people went to another ideological

0:58

faction not s because they identified

1:01

with the ideology of that faction

1:03

because they wanted to give it a chance

1:06

so in this respect the Hamas is cannot

1:08

be reduced to its

1:10

Charter like like the PLO could not have

1:13

been reduced to its Charter which is was

1:15

also talking about replacing Israel with

1:18

a secular estate and was considered as

1:21

you know the PLO was considered the

1:22

terrorist organization for many many

1:25

years uh on the basis of the charter

1:27

Charter is not the only way to judge as

1:29

a movement New jgan Movement by by

1:32

understanding the origins of its

1:34

emergence by the composition of the

1:37

people who run it in the composition of

1:39

the people who support it this is the

1:41

most serious analysis of of the Hamas

1:44

and the Hamas in this respect is is uh a

1:47

political Islamic group that you know

1:51

exists in many other Liberation

1:53

movements in the Arab world that is

1:56

particularly now popular in the west

1:58

Bane in the Gaza Street by the way it’s

2:01

not popular among the refugee camps in

2:03

Lebanon and Jordan it’s not popular

2:06

among the um uh palestin exilic

2:10

communities and it’s not even popular

2:12

among the Palestinians in Israel for for

2:14

a certain group of Palestinian under the

2:17

Yoke of occupation very Russel

2:20

occupation in the West Bank and under

2:22

the under the inhuman Siege in Gaza they

2:25

seem to be the only Liberation or the

2:28

only faction within the Liberation

2:30

movement that is trying through arm

2:32

struggle to bring an end to this this

2:34

does not turn them into a terrorist

2:36

organization they do use terrorism as

2:39

the Israelis do as the fat did as thec

2:42

did as the FN did yes uh both

2:46

colonialist regimes and occupiers use

2:49

Terror and those who fight them use

2:50

Terror uh the definition of the meaning

2:54

behind defining the Hamas as a terrorist

2:56

organization is to delegitimize the

2:59

whole Palestinian Liberation

3:00

Organization movement and the right of

3:02

the Palestinians to defend themselves so

3:05

in that respect uh I I think it’s

3:08

important to realize if you want to get

3:12

reconciliation in Israel and Palestine

3:15

you will have to legitimize the

3:18

Palestinian Liberation movement with all

3:20

its

3:22

factions well I think that Palestinians

3:24

have a right to freedom and good quality

3:27

of life and I also think it was was

3:30

pretty bad what Hamas did to Israeli

3:32

civilians on October 7th I don’t think

3:34

that those two ideas are in conflict or

3:37

contradiction I think that we should be

3:39

able to wish and hope and and and try to

3:42

create a prosperous future for

3:44

Palestinians while simultaneously

3:46

condemning any terrorism from from

3:49

anyone in the world and Hamas hamas’s

3:52

terrorism was was pretty abhorent I mean

3:55

what what they did was pretty uh seemed

3:58

pretty egregious can can is it should we

4:00

not condemn the terrorism that these

4:03

that Hamas inflicted and there’s a

4:06

difference between condemning terrorism

4:08

I’m calling it a group by Essence is a

4:10

terrorist organization you see what what

4:12

I mean Israel so you you but you would

4:15

certainly condemn the terrorism that

4:17

Hamas yes and I could and I would remind

4:20

your viewer that the terrorism Israel

4:22

inflicted on the palestin is is far

4:25

worse and continued for 120 years let’s

4:28

not forget so uh there is it doesn’t

4:31

justify the terrorism but it gives you a

4:34

context you know there’s always a a

4:36

difference and we that’s our role as

4:39

intellectuals we have to explain and

4:42

people sometimes say to us oh if you

4:44

explain then you justify no no

4:46

explanation justification is not the

4:49

same and why is it important because if

4:51

you say that the Hamas is just a purely

4:53

terrorist organization then it uses

4:56

Terror for the sake of Terror because

4:57

the terrorists like to terrorize people

5:00

man or according to the Israeli

5:01

narrative because Iran tells them to

5:03

kill Jews that’s that’s a simplistic

5:06

American reductionist mainstream media

5:09

that buys into the Israeli narrative but

5:12

this is so ahistorical so ignorant of

5:15

the history both of the Hamas of the

5:18

Palestinian Liberation Movement we as

5:21

historians are far more familiar with

5:23

the way that this all develop this is

5:26

not a a a group of people who are just

5:29

born terrorist half of the Palestinians

5:33

who live in the Gaza Strip half of them

5:35

were born are below 23 years old which

5:41

means the only reality they know is

5:44

Siege is a Siege land Siege uh uh sea

5:48

blockade and four brutal Israeli attacks

5:53

from the land sea and air on them this

5:56

is a ghetto that was four times bombed

5:59

by FC 16s and

6:01

f35s and I don’t know I’ve I’ve only

6:03

once experien and I was 5 kilom away

6:07

from a bone that was dropped in Janine I

6:10

must tell you I’m still traumatized from

6:12

being 5 kilomet away from that bone this

6:15

is a population 1.9 population of people

6:19

traumatized with bombing that nobody I

6:23

think aart from people in second world

6:24

war ever

6:26

experienced the number you know the the

6:28

TNT that was dropped by Israel

6:30

throughout these four bombings is far

6:33

worse than the TNT drop in many places

6:35

in the second world war you have to

6:37

remember this when you talk about uh the

6:41

violence and and all of it so this is

6:44

something that uh uh creates an

6:47

explanation not justification it creates

6:50

an explanation for for many things that

6:52

are happening and and therefore uh

6:55

framing one group as a terrorist the

6:57

other one is not a terrorist the state

7:00

is as much a terrorist State Israel as

7:02

as Hamas is is a terrorist and both a

7:04

terrorist organization both of them are

7:06

not very helpful definition you know

7:09

neither Israel is a terrorist State or

7:11

the Hamas is a terrorist organization

7:13

what is what is essential is to look at

7:16

the processes that can lead to the end

7:19

of violence rather than using language

7:22

that would

7:23

perpetuate the violence I I appreciate

7:27

the origins of I appreciate

7:29

understanding how the origins of Hamas

7:31

came about and that the Palestinian

7:34

people have

7:35

suffered that being said it seems that

7:39

between the Hamas Charter things they

7:41

say things they do indicate a general

7:45

anti-semitic agenda can’t both be true

7:48

can’t it be true that Palestinians have

7:51

suffered as a result of Israeli Rule and

7:56

that

7:57

Hamas explicitly perpet Ates

8:02

anti-semitic agenda is that can both no

8:06

that’s not that’s nonsense uh anyone

8:10

who’s familiar with the Palestinians

8:12

know when they talk about the Jews

8:14

they’re talking about the zionists they

8:16

don’t talk about the Jews a Jew in

8:18

America is of no interest for the Hamas

8:22

anti-Semitism is when you hate Jews

8:25

because who they are anti-zionism is

8:29

because you are against Jews because of

8:31

what they are

8:32

doing you know there was a very famous

8:35

uh uh uh interview with the founder of

8:38

the Halas y who said if Muslims would

8:42

have done to us in Gaza what the

8:45

Israelis would have done to us I would

8:47

have advocated the same policy against

8:49

these

8:50

Muslims and that gives you a nutshell

8:52

this idea the take it out this is not

8:56

anti-Semitism this is uh Palestinian

9:00

struggle for Liberation and freedom now

9:03

anti-colonialist struggles have groups

9:07

that maybe some of us who are secular or

9:11

maybe are not very religious we like and

9:14

some of them we don’t like some of them

9:17

have vision for the future we share some

9:19

of have vision for the future we don’t

9:21

share what we do accept at least we

9:24

support struggles against occupation

9:27

colonization and ethnic cleansing that

9:30

they are part of a just a struggle for

9:33

Liberation and freedom now after The

9:38

Liberation after the freedom we can then

9:41

start arguing what kind of a liberated

9:45

country we want do we accept a certain

9:49

Theocratic vision for the Future Would

9:51

we would we like to see maybe a

9:53

communist future maybe we would like to

9:56

see a Social Democratic future this is

9:58

all open for discussion but what most of

10:02

the Palestinian including Hamas is

10:05

involved in is an attempt to end

10:09

occupation ethnic cleansing oppression

10:12

not it’s not a project of killing Jews

10:15
