1
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Good morning, Peeves, and welcome to wok F Daily with

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Danielle Moody recording from the Home Bunker, Folks,

3
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: you know. Over the weekend, I posted a tweet of

4
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: mine on Instagram and since that posting, it is up

5
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: to about like ninety three comments. And here's what I posted.

6
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 1: I posted in response to the White House making a

7
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: statement on the student protests that are happening at Columbia University,

8
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: and I wrote this at potus weighing in on the

9
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: rights of students to protest is not good. The way

10
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: that our democracy is being undermine all to uphold the

11
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: rights of another country to oppress without repercussions is unconscionable.

12
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: While I will continue to push for Dems, this makes

13
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: me sick. This is a piece of what the White

14
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: House's statement was quote. While every American has the right

15
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: to peaceful protest, calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting

16
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: Jewish students and Jewish community are blietantly anti Semitic, unconscionable,

17
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: and dangerous. They have absolutely no place on any college

18
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: campus or anywhere in the United States of America. And

19
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: echoing the rhetoric of terrorist organizations especially in the wake

20
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: of the worst massacre committed against the Jewish people since

21
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: the Holocaust, is despicable. We condemn these statements in the

22
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: strongest terms. That is not what is happening at Columbia.

23
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: Students have set up tents that were forcibly removed by police.

24
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: The university has decided to criminalize the act of protests

25
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: and bring on police and the FBI. We are seeing

26
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: students be thrown out of school for protesting against their

27
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: university's funds being sent to Israel. And the fact is

28
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: is that, like, while you can't control how other people

29
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: may protest outside of said university, and if there is

30
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: violence that has happened, and I know that there is,

31
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: and if there's intimidation that has happened, which I know

32
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: that it has, we have the right to protest. It

33
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: is said stated clearly in the Constitution. That does not

34
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: mean that you only have the right to protest when

35
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,679
Speaker 1: your ideas align with my own. For instance, I have

36
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: reported on this show and on others that white supremacist

37
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: groups have been organizing and marching down city streets across

38
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: this country. Have they been arrested, No, they haven't, even

39
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: though by their sheer presence. They are trying to intimidate

40
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: and oppress those around them, but they're allowed to do

41
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: that because that is their constitutional fucking right. Do I

42
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: think it is gross and disgusting, apps of fucking lutely,

43
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: But do I want to live in a country that

44
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: says that only certain people have a right to protest?

45
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 2: No?

46
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: I fucking don't. And so once again to deny the

47
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: reality that six months after these horrific attacks started in October,

48
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: that over thirty thousand Palestinian peace people, children and women

49
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: have been fucking killed, that there has been absolutely a

50
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: breakaway from the Geneva Convention by Israel on a number

51
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 1: of occasions, that our tax dollars continue to go to

52
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: fund murder. It is not something that people are just

53
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: going to forget about. And I think that this administration

54
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: was thinking that, like with other foreign affairs and other incidents,

55
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 1: that Americans, after a little bit, would get tired and

56
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: just go back to business as usual. Well guess what

57
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: they fucking aren't. They're continuing to organize, they're continuing to protest,

58
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: they're continuing to march, They're continuing to use their voices

59
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,479
Speaker 1: as thus given to them by the constitution of these

60
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: United States, and so for this administration to not fucking

61
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: get it that these young people are pissed and rightfully so.

62
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: And then on top of that, you the only thing

63
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: that our politicians seem to want to agree about is

64
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: the banning of TikTok, which is an organizing tool and

65
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: an information tool for this generation and others. You can't

66
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: agree on an assault rifles ban, you can't agree on

67
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: affordable housing, you can't agree on a child tax credit,

68
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: but you all get together and want to agree on Oh,

69
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: TikTok is dangerous. Give me a fucking break. You look stupid,

70
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: and this generation sees it. But you want their vote

71
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: in less than two hundred days, but are in take

72
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: their demand seriously whatsoever? And instead are equating the grief

73
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: and heartache that they have with watching a genocide unfold

74
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: on their screens and saying that because their hearts are breaking,

75
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: that they're sympathizing with terrorists. Give me a fucking break now.

76
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: While I said in my statement that I will continue

77
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: to support Democrats because I know what a final Trump

78
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 1: administration will do to our democracy into this country, this

79
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: administration is continually making it more and more difficult for

80
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: me to do so, and I know that if I

81
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: have difficulty, then I know that there are lots of

82
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: folks that do and that instead of swallowing it, we'll

83
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: just decide to stay home. So at some point the

84
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: Biden administration needs to decide what is more important to

85
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: them met and Yahoo or our democracy, because two things

86
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:11,119
Speaker 1: can't exist at the same fucking time. Coming up next,

87
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: my conversation with the co host of my other show,

88
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: Democracy Ish author and columnist, activist, speaker, brilliant mind Waja

89
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: hot Ali, where we get into this conversation and much more, Folks,

90
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: I am so excited to welcome back to WOKF Daily,

91
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:44,119
Speaker 1: my co host over at the other eleven thousand pod

92
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: that I do democracy Ish Wajahat a Lee who is

93
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,119
Speaker 1: the author of Go Back To Where You Came From.

94
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: He is a writer, he is a speaker, he is

95
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: a prolific tweeter. Waj We are we are in extraordinary times.

96
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: We are living in extraordinary times. I think it was

97
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: Charlotte Klember on social media who said I miss living

98
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: in non historic times, and I said I would like

99
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: to go back to precedented times. I sat on a

100
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: couch with a friend as we watched the drones from

101
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: Iran enter over the dome in Israel, and we're sitting

102
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: there and we're watching this happen in real time, and

103
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, Holy shit, is this it? What

104
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: were you thinking as you're watching this? And it's been,

105
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: you know, several days since, But is this it? Is

106
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: this the beginning of World War three? Have we been

107
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: in the beginning of it for some time? What are

108
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: your reactions?

109
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: I had two thoughts which I held at the same

110
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: time that might appear to be completely opposite. Is number one,

111
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 2: it revealed the tinderbox that is the Middle East and

112
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: how all will take is one moment, one flash of violence,

113
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 2: to potentially God forbid, trigger an international crisis, you know,

114
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: which is oftentimes how world wars begin, right because multiple

115
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 2: actors with their own because each actor, each state, actor,

116
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 2: has their own interests, and they'd always align with the

117
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: United States, folks. And so you saw a retaliation by

118
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 2: Iran for Israel's strike that we don't talk about because

119
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: Israel also struck the world's central kitchen convoy and killed

120
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: seven people, but we talked about it on another podcast

121
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 2: that Israel had also that weekend struck the Iranian embassy

122
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: in Syria and killed a leading Iranian general. So naturally,

123
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: when it comes to these two reckless actors, they have

124
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: to save face. So even though as a tinderbox was

125
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 2: about to potentially explode, I also said on the X

126
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 2: or the Twitter, whatever the hell this neo Nazi website

127
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 2: is called, that this is going to be highly dangerous,

128
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 2: reckless theater. My prediction was that Iran has to save

129
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 2: face because their embassy got attacked by Israel, a highly

130
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 2: provocative act that, by the way, our national security experts

131
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 2: said that would not only increase threat assessment for Israel

132
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 2: but also the United States. So we were just sitting

133
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 2: there in pens Needo. How will Iran respond? So Iran

134
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 2: sent these drones, these slow moving drones that took six

135
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 2: hours to get there, which was kind of a signal

136
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: Danielle that like, yep, hey, we're sending these drones. They

137
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 2: will arrive in six hours. And then later on Iran said, okay,

138
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: we're done, which just goes to show you that in

139
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: order to then save face and show that it has

140
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 2: responded to Israel, it sent this provocative act which made

141
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 2: the rest of us be like, holy crap, what's happening right?

142
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: And def Con like Defcon three and everyone's tweeting World

143
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: War three, And then you're sitting there thinking to yourself,

144
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 2: why oh why has the Biden administration allowed unconditional aid

145
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: to this reckless rogue actor named Netan Yahoo that has

146
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: always for nearly two decades wanted war champion the war

147
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: came to America and said, warrant Remember that we're old

148
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 2: enough to remember. He was one of the champions of

149
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: the failed warran Terror. One of the worst foreign policy

150
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 2: decisions of our lifetime, for sure, but perhaps in modern

151
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 2: US history, in which US democracy did not blow him

152
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: Across the Middle East. We invaded Iraq, invaded Aganistan. It

153
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 2: was a complete pluster. F who loved it? Nen Yaho?

154
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: And what would nan Yaho? And the warhawks love nothing

155
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: more than to eliminate Iran. Iran and Israel not suicidal actors,

156
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: even though they're dangerous and reckless. But the rest of

157
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 2: US are held hostage by this crisis. And the United

158
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: States because it is the number one partner of Israel,

159
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,359
Speaker 2: because it gives financial aid to Israel, because it gives weapons,

160
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: is still giving weapons to Israel, because Without US support,

161
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: Israel cannot continue occupying Gaza of the West Bank or

162
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 2: continue its war. I ask myself, Joe Biden, is it

163
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: worth it? Is it worth it to your reputation, to

164
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 2: your legacy, to your election chances, to humanitarian cause, to

165
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 2: global security, to keep with unconditional aid supporting Netanyahu, a

166
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: guy who literally wants you to lose. Who's struck not

167
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 2: just the World Central Kitchen which killed an American, also

168
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 2: Al Shaffah hospital no one talks about, and also the

169
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: Iranian embassy And we knew the second day they did it. Whoops,

170
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: this is going to be threatening for US and Israel.

171
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 2: Iran responded. Everyone else is like, holy shit, this is

172
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 2: World War three. And then everyone's like, oh, don't worry,

173
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 2: it's no, it's not world War three. We're okay? Are

174
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 2: we okay? Do you feel better? Are you calm?

175
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 1: Do I feel better? Do I feel colm?

176
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: No?

177
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: Would be the answer to that. And I think that

178
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: you know what else, I noticed as we were all

179
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:16,719
Speaker 1: watching and hashtag world War three was trending. And I

180
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw this. I'm gonna assume that

181
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: you did. Wash the comments from Americans for the first

182
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: time about Iran. We're not talking about Iran as our

183
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: mortal enemy. The comments in the comments section that I

184
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: saw on Instagram on TikTok said, so who has the

185
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: right to defend themselves? There you go and I and

186
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: I'm talking about this was posted on people one of people,

187
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: one of one of No, no, no, this was this

188
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: was it was? It was Iran sends drones to Israel.

189
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: Was posted on a site called the Shade Room, which

190
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: is largely a black entertainment and culture site on Instagram

191
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: and occasionally they post news and politics and just kind

192
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: of put it up there, and then I go to

193
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: see what folks are thinking, and it was black folks

194
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,119
Speaker 1: that said, well, who has a right to defend themselves?

195
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: Israel attacked Ron first, like they just attack their embassy,

196
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: so don't they have the right to respond in kind.

197
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: This was the first time was in my life that

198
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: I'm seeing Americans ask a very real question about the

199
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: actions of who has been labeled one of our most

200
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: dangerous adversaries. What do you make of that?

201
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 2: The conversation around Israel has radically shifted in a way

202
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 2: that I have not seen in my entire life, and

203
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 2: it's thanks to not just pousting and activists, Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims,

204
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 2: but like you said, people of color, black folks, and

205
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 2: also young people. And I think the majority of the

206
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 2: world that is witnessing an ongoing genocide. And if you

207
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 2: don't like the word genocide, collective punishment, war crimes, unjust, unfair, unbalanced,

208
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: cruelty against Palestinians, which has claimed the lives of thirty

209
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 2: three thousand Palestinians, mostly civilians, injured more than seventy thousand.

210
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 2: And when we say the word injured, Daniel, you know,

211
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: oftentimes when we talk about injuries, you kind of just

212
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: casually say, oh, just injuries. We're talking about amputations, kids

213
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 2: without limbs, right, people who we don't even know if

214
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: they're going to survive, right who. Now we're seeing starvation

215
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 2: and famine for the population of Gaza, displacement, and we're

216
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: seeing what we saw the deaths of humanitarians, the just

217
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: blatant murders, journalists, murder of WCK World Central Kitchen Convoy

218
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 2: that was working in conjunction with Israel still wasn't safe.

219
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: Shepherds who were just killed today, like you know, just

220
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 2: just murdered by Israel. And then the question then comes

221
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: to folks, well, who has the right to self defense?

222
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: Don't the Palestinians have the right to defend themselves? If

223
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 2: this was happening to me, what do you do? Do

224
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: you just die? And I think black folks in particular

225
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 2: in this country, right, resisting white supremacy has always been

226
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: met with civility. Right, don't use violence. You can never

227
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 2: use violence, even if for being whipped and enslaved and

228
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 2: killed and lynched. Okay, you can't arm yourself, God forbid

229
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: if you do that. Buying panthers did it. And then

230
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: the NRA for the first time, teaming up with Ronald

231
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 2: reg and the governor of California, said oh, let's have

232
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: gun control.

233
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: So no arm are you in an American city like

234
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: they did in Philadelphia in the nineteen eighties, Go ahead,

235
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: can do that.

236
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 2: No problem. Tanks rolling through the streets, right, Tulsa. So

237
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: you can't use violence, got it? Can't protest, can't march

238
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 2: and literally Supreme Court now is suggesting that you can't

239
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 2: have mass protests in three states. Okay, got it. Can't

240
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 2: say black lives matter, So can't say some words or

241
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: wear some t shirts that offend the economic anxiety of

242
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 2: folks got it. Can't silently kneel during the national anthem.

243
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 2: Can't do that because if you do that, you get

244
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 2: black balled, your NFL career is gone, and then your

245
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 2: jerseys are burned. So the only option that you have

246
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 2: is to just die, just take it and die. And

247
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: I think, Danielle, that's why you're seeing, especially with black

248
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 2: people and people of color, indigenous people, and especially young people,

249
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: they're finally asking themselves, first and foremost, why are we

250
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: giving unconditional aid to an ally that does not act

251
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 2: like an ally, acts like an enemy? Come on, what

252
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: interest is it of the United States to expose itself

253
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 2: and expose Americans to a reckless like Like people are

254
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 2: finally asking, wait, why are we giving money to Israel?

255
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 2: Like how does this help me? How does this help

256
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: the United States? It doesn't like what's the what's the answer?

257
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 2: Can you tell me the answer? I have a tough

258
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 2: tough time coming with the answer.

259
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: Like, here's what I'm told in response, because I say

260
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: these things, and I say them, you know, I say

261
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: them on air, I say them in you know, in

262
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: conversation with friends. But what I'm told I said, So

263
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: what happens if the United States decides not to just

264
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: continue writing a blank check to Israel. What if there

265
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 1: is actually God forbid some conditions that are put in place,

266
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 1: that require humanitarian aid, that require pathways, that require a

267
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: two state solution, that require like all of these things.

268
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: And folks tell me was that the United States will crumble.

269
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: That without the security that has been created around Israel

270
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: in the Middle East, that everything that we know to

271
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 1: be true will vanish. That without the United States securing Israel,

272
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: then all bets are off. That's what I'm told.

273
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: You call the security the rise in anti Semitism, the

274
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: rise in Islamophobia. You call the security where because of

275
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 2: israel reckless attack on Iranian embassy, the threat assessment against

276
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 2: the United States has increased. You call the security where

277
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 2: world nations are angry at the United States for being

278
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 2: the number one supporter of Israel during its occupation and

279
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 2: siege of Gaza. What security you call this security? You

280
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 2: call this friendship when at present buying the most powerful

281
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: person on earth, the commander in chief of our country,

282
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: says I believe in a two state solution, and the

283
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,239
Speaker 2: next state Nanio says, no, I don't believe in two

284
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 2: state solution. When Biden says there should be no more

285
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 2: settlements in the West Bank, in Israel says he there's

286
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 2: gonna be thirty four hundred new settlements in the West Bank.

287
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 2: Where President Biden says, hey, hey, reduce the civilian casualties,

288
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 2: and NANNIEO says, eh, I'm going to kill the WCK

289
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 2: kitchen staff, which includes an American, And hey, this happens

290
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 2: in war? What security? What respect? What mutual reciprocity is

291
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 2: there in this relationship? What do we get out of it?

292
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 2: Why are my tax payer dollars going to the occupation

293
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,679
Speaker 2: of Palestinians and to the bombing of Palestinians which is

294
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 2: increasing world hatred against America and also in Muslim majority

295
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 2: countries we have seen going back to the war and

296
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 2: terror that one of the grievances that people like Osama

297
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 2: Milan al Kaya the ISIS have used against the United

298
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: States is exactly this, the support for Israel AND's occupation.

299
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 2: So if anything, it emboldens our enemies against us. Tell

300
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: me how it helps, Tell me how it helps.

301
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't tell you. I can't tell you

302
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 1: because I agree with everything that you just said. So

303
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: like I can't tell you, Daniel.

304
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 2: I think it's madness for any country to be given

305
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: unconditional aid. No country is given unconditional aid except Israel.

306
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 2: That's absurd. That's like saying, I'm gonna give you these rockets.

307
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: You could go blow up kids unconditional aid, Like why,

308
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: But with Israel unconditional aid, you know, iron clad support.

309
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 2: That's what President Biden said a few days ago, and.

310
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: That's what Vice President Howris repeated, iron clad support.

311
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: And I'm like why, And then people are finally asking

312
00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 2: why why unconditional support for a reckless actor named Benjamin

313
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: Naniah who in an extremist government that have shown nothing

314
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: but contempt towards you, President Biden, your administration, your policies,

315
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 2: and also to humanitarian aid, to democracy, to justice, like

316
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 2: the person who is his National security minister. For those

317
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 2: who don't know, is Itamar ben Gavier? An extremist according

318
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 2: to Israel standards, who's giving out machine guns to settlers,

319
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 2: and who's openly saying, you know, President Trump would be

320
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 2: better than Biden and is openly saying, yeah, we want

321
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 2: it all, we want everything river to the sea completely.

322
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: In contrast to the alleged policies of President Biden, and

323
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 2: you know, it reminds me of this. It's like I

324
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 2: think maybe Biden is a masochist at heart, and I

325
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: don't want to kink shame that like Nan Yahoo just

326
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 2: like slaps him around and Biden says, thank you, might

327
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 2: have another. But what it does is it makes Biden

328
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 2: look weak. It weakens him before a monumental election where

329
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 2: I think you and I agree that our democracy is

330
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: at stake. As you and I have said on our

331
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: other podcast, Democracy Ish that this will end up hurting

332
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 2: him with some Democratic voters. And when you and I

333
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 2: say it, no one listens. But when white dudes say

334
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 2: they will. There's an article out in the Atlantic this

335
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 2: week showing exactly that that this issue now Democrats are

336
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 2: afraid might hurt them in the upcoming election. And it's

337
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: not just Muslims and Arabs.

338
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this too, with regard to

339
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: the continued coverage and what we're seeing in mainstream media

340
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: and in cable news, because what I thought was really

341
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: interesting as I was watching the drones as you were

342
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: a couple of weekends ago head to Israel, I noticed

343
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: who wasn't on air during their hour and that was

344
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: Aim in Mohedeen and instead on MSNBC it was Jose

345
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: Diaz Bolart and I thought to myself, and I go

346
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: on Jose's show. I enjoy Jose, but you know what,

347
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 1: I know, he's not an expert in the Middle East.

348
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,719
Speaker 1: You know what I know that he is not is

349
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: somebody that has been doing correspondence in that part of

350
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 1: the world for their entire career, like Am and Mohedeen. So,

351
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 1: you know, I want to ask you, you know, your

352
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: thoughts on the invisibilizing that is happening to prominent Muslims

353
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: on air and what we need to make of that

354
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: and what we need to say about that.

355
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 2: So, I mean, you know, I'm glad you asked this

356
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 2: question because I saw Aman briefly yesterday at the launch

357
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 2: of Zeteo, which is the new media company launched by

358
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 2: maybe Husson and maythe Husson for those of you who

359
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 2: don't know, used to be was the best interviewer MSNBC had,

360
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 2: I would say, the best interviewer on cable news. And

361
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 2: he was let go, his show was canceled and essentially

362
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 2: then he got out of his contract. He can't talk

363
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 2: about it right now. But I can openly say that

364
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 2: it was due to pressure from outside groups due to

365
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 2: his coverage on Guzin and so he saw maybe Husson

366
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 2: get canceled. People are forgetting that the cancelation attempts against

367
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 2: not just Maylie but also Oli Velshi and I am

368
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 2: at MSNBC where some groups are calling them Hamas propagandists.

369
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: You're seeing people anyone who's pro Palestini didn't get canceled.

370
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 2: Even Jewish Americans like Jonathan Glazer, the one the director

371
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: who won four Zona of Interest the Academy Award, who

372
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 2: gave a very beautiful humanitarian speech, he got canceled, right,

373
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 2: And you just saw. This is coming out in a

374
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 2: few days. But you just saw, and I think you're

375
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 2: going to see more and more coverage of the USC

376
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 2: commencement speaker. I don't know if you've heard about this Danielle.

377
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 2: Her name is Asneta Bassom, and USC and their cowardice

378
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: canceled her speedch citing quote unquote security concerns without mentioning

379
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: any security concern. And essentially she's a sweet like young,

380
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 2: brown skinned Hijabi girl who minored in resistance to genocide,

381
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 2: and essentially what people are saying is they were afraid

382
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 2: that during her valedictorian speech she might talk about what's

383
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 2: happening in Gaza, so they canceled her speech. Talked me

384
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 2: about cancel culture, Danielle, Talk to maybe about free you know,

385
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: free speech. Talk to me about forget safe spaces, the

386
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 2: marketplace of ideas, all this bullshit right wing talking points

387
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 2: that Ben Shapiro talks about. I haven't seen them coming

388
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 2: to defense with mayde Hussan. I haven't seen them come

389
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,199
Speaker 2: of the defense of us. I haven't seen the come

390
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 2: to the defense of Iman. Why is that, Danielle, Why

391
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 2: is that? Hmm? Free speech ends with Palestine.

392
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that free speech is contention upon

393
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 1: your complexion, and that that is something that has always

394
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: been the case in the United States, is that when

395
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 1: you start to advocate for yourself, for your group, for

396
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: other marginalized communities, if you do not have the complexion

397
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: for the protection, then you are canceled or assassinated, which

398
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 1: is you know, another piece right, like we don't when

399
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: we talk about the humanitarian workers that have been killed,

400
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: hundreds that have been killed in Gaza, well we're not

401
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: talking about are the hundreds journalists that have been killed

402
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: in their families that have been killed and targeted, right.

403
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: And so while we're not currently in the business of

404
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: killing journalists in this country, what we are doing is

405
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: killing careers and killing character. And I think that that

406
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,479
Speaker 1: is worthy of discussion because what they are trying to

407
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: do is make an example of these people, right in

408
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 1: saying that if you open up your mouth right in

409
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: a certain way and in a certain frame, and we

410
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: can't trust what it is that you're going to say,

411
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: so we're going to remove you, right. And so this

412
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: is when, in all honesty, I call on white allies, right,

413
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: who people who continually ask, you know, what can I do?

414
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: What can I do? I call on white allies to

415
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: be the fucking shield for the people who are getting canceled, right,

416
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: and to lift those people up and to have those

417
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: conversations and to be provocative and to use their names

418
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: and their voices and their power for those that are made

419
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: an example of.

420
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 2: Can I give you a quote just to articulate exactly

421
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: what you said, because they're admitting it, like the Bond

422
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 2: villains that they are. Christopher Ufo, the right wing activist

423
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: who has gone after CRT and diversity, he used this quote,

424
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: and so did Elise Stephanic after they railroaded Claudine Gay,

425
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 2: who was the first black president of Harvard Law School.

426
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 2: They said, we have a scalp. We have a scalp,

427
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 2: and we want more scalps. That's exactly it. We got

428
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 2: the scalp, and then you raise the scalp and you say, see, see,

429
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: this is what happens. And then they raise it like

430
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 2: trophy is like the predator. And so what I tell

431
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: folks is, Okay, you might have gotten your short term victory,

432
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 2: but this is a pyrrhic victory, Danielle and bring things

433
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 2: back full circle. People have woken up. People have realized

434
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 2: that wait a second, this is not the only democracy

435
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 2: in the Middle East. This seems like an occupying, brutal

436
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 2: country whose policies are demonied Palestinian people who need self

437
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: determination and freedom, And why is my money paying for

438
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 2: what most people now are saying is an ongoing genocide?

439
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 2: And the polls that are released as of this week

440
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 2: is that Biden and n Yah who have lost independence

441
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 2: in this country. So not just democrats, even independents are like, yo,

442
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 2: why are we supporting this? Like there should be a ceasefire.

443
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 2: So I'm curious, Danielle, as this war goes on, and

444
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 2: the last thing I'll say is nen Yaho needs this war.

445
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 2: He's a deeply unpopular prime minister. Seventy five percent of

446
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 2: the country wants him out. If this war stops, he

447
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 2: will be forced to resigned. So it's in his interest

448
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: for this war to go on. It's in his interest

449
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 2: for Iran to retaliate, because then it whitewashes his sins

450
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 2: and Gaza right, the media complex here will just concentrate

451
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: on the news of the day and forget about, you know,

452
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: the thirty three thousand dead Palestinians. The question is how

453
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 2: much will Biden give up for a man who mocks him,

454
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 2: ridyicules him, humiliates him, and aggressively wants him to lose

455
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 2: the election. How much will Biden give up? And how

456
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: come Biden, who has shown some nimbleness in changing in

457
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 2: other aspects of his career, right in his policies. Wise,

458
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 2: he's so ensconced and entrenched in his defense of Naniehu

459
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,959
Speaker 2: in Israel as it's committing what many say is an

460
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: ongoing genocide. That will be the question that he will

461
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 2: have to answer. And I think there will be a

462
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 2: cost if he does not answer that question in a
