1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Hey guys, hope everyone is doing well. Had a whole

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: bunch of updates coming out of Israel and Gaza that

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: just felt like couldn't wait, So I wanted to break

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: down a number of things for including message from the

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: Pope over this holiday season, viral message from a Palestinian

6
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 1: reverend in Bethlehem. We also have new evidence emerging, including

7
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: videos of potential war crimes. We have a new report

8
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: from the Washington Post comparing this level of destruction in

9
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: Gaza to all other wars this century and finding that

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: already in just this comparatively short period of time, this

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: surpasses the brutality and destruction of anything that we have

12
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: seen this century. They've got maps and data to prove that,

13
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: so I'll show you that as well. We've also got

14
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 1: some new data coming out of Israel about just what

15
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: Israeli Jews want to see in the quote unquote day

16
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: after spoiler alert. It's ethnic cleansing, and clearly this is

17
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: also what their political leaders are pushing for as well. Well.

18
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: And lastly, we've got this is a huge development, Israel

19
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:09,639
Speaker 1: allegedly assassinating one of Iran's top generals, doctor Tresa Parsi,

20
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: had a really important thread breaking down what this could mean,

21
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: what Israel could be pushing for here, and of course

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: this sparking concerns additional concerns of a potential regional war

23
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: which would certainly directly pull in the United States of America.

24
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: But I wanted to start with a viral Christmas message

25
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: from a reverend in Bethlehem sharing his thoughts on what

26
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: is happening. This is Palestinian Reverend month or Isaac preaching

27
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: in Bethlehem on December twenty third. Let's go ahead and

28
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: take a listen to what he had to say.

29
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 2: Raza today has become the moral compass of the world.

30
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: Rassa was hell before October seventh, and the world was silent.

31
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: Should we be a surprise that they're silenced now. If

32
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: you are not appalled by what is happening in Raza,

33
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 2: if you are not shaken to your core, there is

34
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 2: something wrong with your humanity. And if we ask Christians

35
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 2: are not outraced by the genocide, by the weaponization of

36
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 2: the Bible to justify it, there is something wrong with

37
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: our Christian witness and we are compromising the credibility of

38
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 2: our gospel message. If you fail to call this a genocide.

39
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 2: It is on you. It is a sin and a

40
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 2: darkness you willingly embrace. Some have not even called for

41
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 2: a ceasefire. I'm talking about churches. I feel sorry for you.

42
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 2: We will be okay. Despite the immense blow we have endured.

43
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 2: We the Palestinians, will recover. We were rise. We will

44
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: stand up again on the midst of destruction as we

45
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: have always done as Palestinians. Although this is by far

46
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: maybe the biggest law we have received in a long time.

47
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: But we will be okay.

48
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: Very powerful words there, and I intentionally began with that,

49
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: not only because of the season appropriate message for the season,

50
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: I suppose, but also because it helps put in context

51
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: everything else we're going to talk about today, because I

52
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: do think there will be a time not long from now,

53
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: when everyone looks back and is horrified by the atrocities

54
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: that have been committed here on a daily basis, with

55
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: the not only acceptance, but the United States, the most

56
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: powerful country in the world, aiding in a betting these crimes,

57
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: shipping weapons, providing diplomatic cover, providing rhetorical cover. You know,

58
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: doing this, playing this game of pretending like Joe Biden

59
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: and co. Are really concerned about civilian lives, which is,

60
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,119
Speaker 1: you know, at this point, just a ruse to try

61
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,279
Speaker 1: to buy Israel even more time to commit the atrocities

62
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: that they've been committing. And I also wanted to share

63
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 1: with you the Pope with some similar language, I would say,

64
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: calling out the horrors of this war. And he has

65
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: been very unspoken throughout this war, including calling some of

66
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: Israeli's actions terrorism and certainly calling for an end and

67
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: a ceasefire and end to the bloodshed. This is per Reuters,

68
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: as posted in Haretz. Pope Lament's war in Holy Land

69
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: on solemn Christmas Eve put France's lamented war in the

70
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Land of the Birth of Jesus on Sunday, where Christmas

71
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: Eve brought only fresh bloodshed and an intensification of fighting

72
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: across the length of the Gaza Strip. Tonight, he said,

73
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: our hearts are in Bethlehem, where the Prince of Peace

74
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: is once more rejected by the futile logic of war,

75
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: by the clash of arms that even today prevents him

76
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: from finding room in the world. Palestinian Christians, they say,

77
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: earlier held a Christmas vigil in Bethlehem with candlelight hymns

78
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: and prayers for peace in Gaza. Instead of the usual celebrations,

79
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: there was no large tree, the usual centerpiece of Bethlehem's

80
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: Christmas celebrations. Nativity figurines and churches were placed amid rubble

81
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: and barbed wire in solidarity with the people of Gaza.

82
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: And as I had mentioned before, the Pope's most recent comments,

83
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: as far as I'm aware before this had been with

84
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: regard to the IDF killing of two Christian women, a

85
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 1: mother and daughter, who were sheltering at a historic Christian

86
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: church in Gaza. They were walking I believe, to use

87
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: the bathroom at the convent, and an IDF sniper took

88
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: them out, and those were the actions that the Pope

89
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: referred to as terrorism. So he continues to speak in

90
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: grave terms about what we are witnessing here, and there's

91
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: a good reason for that. It appears that we may

92
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: have just seen the most deadly stretch of killing yet

93
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: since October seventh, since Israel began their assault on Gaza.

94
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: This is per Al Jazeera. Israel intensifies Gaza strikes, killing

95
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty Palestinians in twenty four hours. More

96
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: than one hundred people have been killed in Israeli strike

97
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: on the Magazi refugee camp with families still trapped in rubble.

98
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: Let me read you a little bit of this they

99
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: spoke to, or they are recording the comments of a woman,

100
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: a bereft woman on Monday at that refugee camp, saying,

101
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: my entire family is gone. All five of my brothers

102
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: are gone. They didn't leave me any brothers, all of them.

103
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: Palestinians lined up to touch the shrouded bodies of those

104
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: killed and Israeli strikes on the camp in a funeral

105
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: on Monday, commemorating dozens of people who were killed, many

106
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: of them women and children, and Al Jazeera reporter in

107
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: Gaza said the figure has now reached more than one hundred.

108
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: The government media office in Gaza said seven families were

109
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: wiped out completely in that Israeli attack on a residential

110
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: square in the camp camp. One of those residents, Zaiyad Awad,

111
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: told Al Jazeera the Israeli army doesn't spare civilians. My

112
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: child said to me, help me, what's happening. I can't breathe.

113
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: And of course we're all very well aware of the

114
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: unbelievable toll in terms of civilian deaths in terms of women,

115
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: in terms of children. That's another way in which this

116
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: conflict stands out from all others. And you know, when

117
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: you cover this, when you care about this, you always

118
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: get these questions of like, oh, why are you so

119
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: focused on this? There are lots of terrible things happening

120
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: in the world. And that's true, lots of terrible things

121
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: happening in the world. But even with that being said,

122
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: on the level of starvation, on the level which I'm

123
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: about to show you of the destruction of buildings, just total,

124
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: you know, turning the whole landscape into a moonscape or

125
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: a parking lot, destroying all kinds of civilian infrastructure. This

126
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: is the worst this century, and certainly in terms of

127
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: the number of children killed, which is significantly over ten

128
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: thousand kids killed at this point. This is like nothing

129
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: else that we have seen in recent history. And then

130
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: you add to that, as an American citizen, the fact

131
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: that you know, when you're sending in your taxes here

132
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: in the new year, they are going for some of

133
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: these two thousand pound bunk or busting bombs that have

134
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: been indiscriminately dropped all over Gaza. And there was a

135
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: report I don't have the element here for you. But

136
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: you know, another many tons of weapons and AMMO just

137
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: being shipped by Biden to Israel. So all of their

138
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: you know, supposed concerns about civilian life. I know we've

139
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: been having these tough conversations. Total and utter nonsense, Total

140
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: and utter nonsense. So let me show you. And this

141
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: is this is very disturbing, but I think it's important,

142
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: if you're able to bear it, to see some of

143
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: the video that is emerging. We talked before about reports

144
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: of summary execute We also talked previously on breaking Points

145
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: about how they were rounding up civilian civilian men, stripping

146
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: them naked, posting pictures of there were you know, utter humiliation.

147
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: Even Israel admitted after those roundups that most, the overwhelming

148
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: number of those who had been you know, rounded up,

149
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: strip naked and humiliated in this way, that they were civilians.

150
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: So we have another video that has emerged here that

151
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: I want to share with you may go ahead and

152
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 1: uh and pull this up. And this The sound is

153
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: not important on this one, so I'll keep it low.

154
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: But take a listen to those so you can see

155
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: here these in some instances children, I mean, if you

156
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: look closely at these pictures. You see men and you

157
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: see little boys who have been rounded up, hands on

158
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: their head. They're using a an empty uh soccer field

159
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: or football field to conduct these masked attentions. This is

160
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: from Rami Abdul with Euromed monitor and they have a

161
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 1: report about alleging these war crimes and documenting some of

162
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: the summary executions. What he writes here is field executions

163
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 1: and massed attentions. Alarming footage of Israeli forces turning a

164
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: stadium in Gaza into a massed attention camp. The video

165
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: shows the detention of hundreds of civilians, including women, elders

166
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: and babies. Euromed monitors confirmed that the Israeli forces are

167
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 1: carrying out field executions against civilians in Gaza after forcibly

168
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: removing them from displacement centers and stripping them. So that

169
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 1: is what you are watching in this horrifying video. And

170
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: they have, as I said, they have pulled together a

171
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: report that they have submitted to un Rappertours and the

172
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: ICC prosecutor. This is a primary report documenting dozens of

173
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: field execution cases in Gaza. Read a litle little bit

174
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: of this to you and a primary report submitted to

175
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: you on special Rapperturs and the prosecutor of the ICC

176
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: euro Met human rights monitors documented dozens of cases of

177
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: field executions carried out by the Israeli Army and the

178
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,319
Speaker 1: Gaza strip. The Human Rights Group requested an immediate investigation

179
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: into these crimes, calling for the perpetrators to be held

180
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: accountable and for justice for all victims. If you read

181
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: through this, they have documented multiple instances of what they

182
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: describe as crimes and liquidations. You can see the dates

183
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: here and some of the details that they have submitted

184
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: with evidence in order to start an investigation hopefully and

185
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: some accountability. Hopefully. Wouldn't hold my breath on any of this,

186
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: because the truth of the matter is, I think, after

187
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: what we're seeing unfolding here, with the active participation of

188
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: the United States and with US providing diplomatic cover, etceter like,

189
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: any idea that human rights war crimes that any of

190
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: this matters, I just don't know how you sustain it.

191
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: And we are truly back to, you know, pre World

192
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: War two period, and that comes out in Natan Yahoo's

193
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: rhetoric of course, where he says, oh, well, you know,

194
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: we're not doing anything different than what the allies did

195
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 1: and what you all did in terms of World War two,

196
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: and anytime anyone says that, remember, first of all, there

197
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: is actual data to show that the level of destruction

198
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: Goza now surpasses what we did in places like dressed

199
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: In that were synonymous with mass civilian casualties and destruction

200
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: of civilian infrastructure. But second of all, there's a reason

201
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: why after World War Two we put in place things

202
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: like the Geneva Conventions so that civilians would face some

203
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: level of protection and so that we wouldn't have the

204
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: horrors unfolding again that we saw in wars like World

205
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: War two. So but all of that completely completely out

206
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: the window. So let's talk about this, you know, fake

207
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: conversation about what is going to happen on the day after.

208
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: Of course, US officials, oh, we want the Palestinie authority

209
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 1: to come in and then we want a two state solution,

210
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: completely ignoring that Netanyahu is adamantly opposed to that. Has

211
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: been clear that he's adamantly opposed to that, has been

212
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: bragging about how he is the reason why there is

213
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: no Palestinian state, has been bragging that he is the

214
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: guy to continue to prevent such a state from taking hold.

215
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: And now we have just the latest indication of many

216
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: reports that you know, we've tried to bring you, that

217
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: he knows what he wants on the day after, and

218
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: it is ethnic cleansing, he said in a lacud meaning today,

219
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: according to a Hebrew Israeli outlet, that he is actively

220
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: working to ethnic transfer Palestinians out of Gaza. And as

221
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: this person rightly indicates, similar statements have been made by

222
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: other ministers, but none of them had direct involvement in

223
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: war policy. Now we've got it coming straight from Netanyahu,

224
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: and it should be seen as a statement of intent.

225
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: And I saw others saying that, hey, listen, you know

226
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: we should be asking every US politician and every media

227
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: figure at this point, every analyst what they think about

228
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: this potential, you know, ethnic cleansing of Gaza. We know

229
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: bb net Nyahu has talked about us. He's pushing his

230
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: senior aid to come up with plans to quote thin

231
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: out the Gaza strip. We're seeing all of this incredibly

232
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: dystopian language, framing this in humanitarian terms, and the game

233
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: here is very clear render all of Gaza uninhabitable, which

234
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: frankly has been a project years in the making and

235
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: is just vastly accelerated by this current assault. Northern Gaza

236
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: is already uninhabitable, unlivable sea water being pumped into tunnels,

237
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: which is rendering the aquifer unusable, further compromising. It is

238
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: already the case that the overwhelming majority of Gazans had

239
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: no access to clean water even before this, you know,

240
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: destroy all of the civilian infrastructure. That was the game

241
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: with Al Shifa, which was you know, a beating heart

242
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: of Gaza civilian life. So you know, destroying all of that,

243
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: making it so no one can come back, and then saying, oh,

244
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: the humanitarian thing to do is to relocate people. We

245
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: know that there was a plan that apparently has some

246
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: bipartisan support to use US eight dollars to pressure regional

247
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: countries including Egypt and others, to accept hundreds of thousands

248
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: of Palestinian refugees. And make no mistake about it, this

249
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: is the direction that Israel is going to push in.

250
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: And you know, the longer that this goes on, the

251
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: more of Gaza that is rendered completely uninhabitable, the more

252
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: likely they are to succeed. And using this, you know,

253
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: just the ultimate gas lighting of language, claiming that it

254
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: is humanitarian to engage in this final ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

255
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: And by the way, there's also a reason why net

256
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: Yahoo outside of his ideological commitment to this outcome over

257
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: a long period of time, but guess what, he's also

258
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: fighting for his life. And this is the outcome that

259
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: is extremely popular among Jewish Israelis. Eighty three percent of

260
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: Israelis courting Jewish Israelies, we should say, according to this

261
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: new poll, support the expulsion of Gaza's population under the

262
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: label quote unquote voluntary migration. That's again the you know,

263
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: gas lighting or Wellian term that they're using for this

264
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: voluntary This person opines as in leave Gaza or die

265
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: by starvation, air strikes, diseases, bullets, or under an IDF

266
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: bulldozer Well said, sixty eight percent. You can see this

267
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: this pole that was shared. It's the words are in Hebrew. Obviously,

268
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: sixty eight percent are extremely supportive of this genocidal proposal

269
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: and fifteen percent, I presume are moderately supportive. You add

270
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: those together, you get the eighty three percent who say yes, yay,

271
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: ethnic cleansing. So that's what we're looking at here. At

272
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: the same time, we have some dramatic developments in terms

273
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: of Israeli actions, possibly sparking a wider war. Let me

274
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: put this up on the screen for you. This is incredible.

275
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: So a top Iranian commander assassinated in a reported Israeli airstrike,

276
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: Iran warned Israel will pay for the killing of say

277
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: Ed Rozi Mussavi, senior military advisor known as a close

278
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: companion to the assassinated General Costom Solomani, senior advisor in

279
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: Iran's Revolutionary GUARDCORE, killed an Israeli airstrike outside the Syrian

280
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: capital of Damascus on Monday's according to Irani and state media.

281
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: Three security sources later confirmed say Ed Razzi Musavi's death.

282
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: Two Reuters around State Television interrupted its regularly scheduled program

283
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: to announce Massavi had been killed. The were reported in

284
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: a Revolutionary Guard statement read on the air as a

285
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 1: brigadier general and one of the Guard's most important figures

286
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: in Syria, responsible for coordinating its military alliance with Iran.

287
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: He was also described as a close companion to Costum

288
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: Soul of Money, the top Irani in general who led

289
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: the Guard's elite could's force until he was killed in

290
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: a US air strike in Iraq in January twenty twenty.

291
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: Undoubtedly the usurper and savage Zionist regime will pay for

292
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: this crime, Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi said in Monday's televised statement.

293
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: According to Iran's Tasnim news agency, this action is another

294
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 1: sign of frustration, helplessness and inability of the occupying Zionist regime.

295
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: No immediate comment from the IDF, but it is widely

296
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: expected and understood that Israel was probably behind this assassination. Israel,

297
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 1: they say, was bracing for a response by Iran on

298
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: its northern front. The Jerusalem Post report later on Monday,

299
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: citing local media reports. I will also add to that

300
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: there were some comments from Israeli Defense Minister Yoev Galant

301
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: saying we are fighting a war on seven fronts, seven fronts,

302
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: and we have taken action on six of those. So

303
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: this could be one of the fronts that they're referring

304
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: to there in which they've taken action. We also have

305
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: the US, separately, you know, ramping up attacks on these

306
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: Houthi related suicide drones. I think that we shut down

307
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: a dozen of them. That comes as they've been essentially

308
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: blocking shipping through the Red Sea, and it's taking a

309
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 1: huge toll, especially on the Israeli economy, also partly on

310
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: the global economy in the US. Has marshaled this new

311
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 1: coalition of the willing to try to restore the ability

312
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: to traverse that shipping lane. Wanted to read for you

313
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: what doctor Parsi had to say about this Israeli assassination

314
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: alleged of that top Irani in general, because I think

315
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: he lays out what they could be up to here,

316
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: what the intent could be, and also what it could

317
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 1: mean going forward to If you bear with me, I'm

318
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: going to read through this. He says some brief analysis

319
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: and that this assassination was presumably by Israel. Bottom line,

320
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: Israel either killed Massavi as a warning to Iran, given

321
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: Tehran support for the Houthi's targeting of ships in the

322
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 1: Red Sea, as a provocation to beget an Iranian response

323
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: that would give Israel a pretext to enlarge the war,

324
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: or as a preparatory move to enlarge the war regardless

325
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 1: of Iran's response. It goes on, it's very likely Israel's

326
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: behind the assassination of Massabi, since it is the only

327
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: power with both a motive and capacity to pull off

328
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: such a killing, not to mention a long history of

329
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: assassinating Iranian operatives. The US has the capacity, but not

330
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: necessarily the motive. The analysis below us on the rather

331
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: safe assumption that Massavi was assassinated by Israel. US intelligence

332
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 1: believes that Iran has been actively involved in the Huthi

333
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: movements targeting of ships in the Red Sea, which has

334
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: effectively closed the Bob Almandab straight for Israel and costs

335
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: the Israeli economy billions of dollars. The Huthis insists they

336
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: will continue the attack despite threats of retaliation from the US,

337
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: until Israel ceases its bombardment of Gaza. Israel, of course refuses,

338
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: Biden is loaths to press Israel for a ceasefire. From

339
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: Israel's perspective, Iran is not paying a price for its

340
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: alleged role in the Red Sea attacks. The assassination may,

341
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: as a result, be a warning to Iran that Israel's

342
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: capacity and willingness to exact a price from Iran, even

343
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: in areas where the Iranians may have presumed they are safe,

344
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 1: so that scenario number one. In a second scenario, the

345
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: assassination may be a deliberate provocation to beget an Iranian

346
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: response that would give Israel the pretext to enlarge the war.

347
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: So in this second scenario that he envisions here, this

348
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: is an attempt to intentionally draw Iran into this war,

349
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: sparking a wider regional war, he says, will the Biden

350
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: administration has given Israel complete green light to bomb Gaza

351
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: to Smithers. Biden opposes an expansion of the war sinceuff

352
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: could likely drag the US into it. The debate inside

353
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: the Israel government is increasingly leaning toward expanding the war.

354
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: They've already mobilized three hundred thousand plus troops. There's growing

355
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: belief in Israel it simply is intolerable for Israel to

356
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: live next to Hesbela. They thought they could manage the

357
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: threat from Hamas, and they couldn't. Even though it was

358
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: not Hesbela that attacked Israel in October seventh. The Israeli

359
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: argument is that next time it might be Hesbela, and

360
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: as a result, Israel has no choice but to expand

361
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: the war. But unless there's an attack from Iran or

362
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: Hesbla itself, the US may continue to oppose such a move,

363
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: and we have seen is Israeli's the Israeli government floating

364
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: this sort of trial balloon of oh Hesbela is violating

365
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: this particular UN resolution as if they care about any

366
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: other UN resolution only when it is convenient for them,

367
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,719
Speaker 1: and trying to shop that around as like a pretext

368
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: for potentially more directly attacking Hezbela itself. Of course, they've

369
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: already been skirmishes in that region already, he goes on,

370
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: the assassination of Musabi may cause Iran to retaliate against

371
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: Israel via Hesbela, the reasoning goes, and Israel can then

372
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: use Hesbel's action as a pretext to not only expand

373
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: the war Lebanon, but also force the US to go

374
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: along with it. Lastly, he said there's a third explanation.

375
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: According to Amwajh Media, Mussavi was in charge of facilitating

376
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: the entry of Iran led forces and arms shipments to

377
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: Syria as well as Lebanon's Hesbelah movement. If Israel intends

378
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: to attack Lebanon, taking out Massavi could be a logical

379
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: first step to disrupt the arming of Hesbla as well

380
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: as its supply lines. As such, the assassination may be

381
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: a preparatory move to enlarge the war regardless of Iran's

382
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: response to the killing of Massavi. So in the second scenario,

383
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: it's the intent is to trigger some sort of vitalitary

384
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 1: response and launch a broader war. Here it's to enlarge

385
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 1: the war regardless of whether Iran responds in a provocative manner.

386
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: All of these scenarios, he says, point to one undeniable reality.

387
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 1: As long as Biden refuses to pressure Israel to accept

388
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: a ceasefire, in GA's attentions in the region will continue

389
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: to rise, and the Middle East will gravitate towards a

390
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: regional war that very likely will engulf the US as well.

391
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: May think he can control these events that allow Israel

392
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: to slaughter the people in Gazawak, keeping a lid on

393
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 1: the escalation risk. He is likely wrong, and the American

394
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: people may soon find themselves and yet another unnecessary war

395
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 1: in the Middle East because of Biden's strategic incompetence. And

396
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 1: I think that lays it out incredibly well the dangers

397
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: that we are facing and the potential risk of this

398
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 1: broader war, and also lays out the very real possibility

399
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: that Israel is actively courting this broader war. And as

400
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: I said, previously, we already had them sort of workshopping

401
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: this and trial ballooning this with regard to a wider war.

402
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 1: There have even been comments coming out from top officials,

403
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: perhaps even including net Nyaho if memory serves, saying that

404
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: after the war with Hamas is finished, then they want

405
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 1: to move on to the war with Hesbola. Now, of course,

406
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 1: the reality is this hasn't been a war with Hamas.

407
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: It's been a war against the civilian population in Gaza.

408
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: It's been a war intended to provoke a quote shock

409
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: among the civilian population in Gaza. It's been a war

410
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: on the civilian infrastructure in gazamm about to show you

411
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: that as well. And it has been a war with

412
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: the ultimate intent of complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. There

413
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: were comments made previously. I don't know if you guys

414
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: recall this. I'm pretty sure we covered it on the show, saying, hey,

415
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 1: we could turn Beirut into Gaza. We could do the

416
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: same things in Lebanon that we're doing in Gaza. So

417
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: if that isn't a threat against civilians, I don't know

418
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 1: what is. And we also have those reports from multiple

419
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 1: human rights organizations and confirmed by the Washington post of

420
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: white Phiosophus already having been dropped on civilians in Lebanon,

421
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 1: in southern Lebanon in contravention of the rules of war.

422
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: So a lot to be very very concerned about there. Lastly,

423
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: just to put things in perspective and kind of tie

424
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: things together with where we started about the big picture.

425
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: What we are all witnessing unfolding before our eyes here.

426
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm paywalled. Is the utter destruction, the utter

427
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: destruction that is unlike anything that we have seen this century.

428
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: So they compared the washingmtposts compared in this report that

429
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: I'm paywalld from. Sorry guys. They confirmed that they looked

430
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: at the satellite data and the number of buildings that

431
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: have been destroyed and damaged. They compared it to Raka,

432
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 1: They compared it to Aleppo, they compared it to Mosseil.

433
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: These are considered the three most devastated cities in bombings

434
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: that have occurred in this century. And they found that

435
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: in just seven weeks time. Because this data is a

436
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: little old, so this doesn't even take into account recent

437
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 1: bombings week's time. This assault on Gaza has been more devastating,

438
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: just in sheer numbers of buildings destroyed, damaged than any

439
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: of those conflicts to come as no surprise when you

440
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: consider the fact that you have this AI driven what's

441
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: being called mass assassination factory. Doesn't come as a surprise

442
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: when you know nine seven to two magazine is reporting

443
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 1: about these quote unquote power targets that Israel is intentionally

444
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: going after to create that shock in the civilian population.

445
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: Power targets or things like high rise apartment buildings. They

446
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 1: are things like hospitals, other public civilian infrastructure. Gaza City,

447
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: of course basically leveled now, I mean just utterly destroyed,

448
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,479
Speaker 1: completely uninhabitable. And also when you consider things like previous

449
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: reports we've talked about the number of two thousand pound

450
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 1: bombs that have been dropped here, the fact that half

451
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: more than half of the bombs that have been quote

452
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: unquote dumb bombs not targeted. And when we were fighting

453
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 1: in Mosul, which was incredibly devastating to civilian life and

454
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: civilian infrastructure, certainly our military, which has hardly been a

455
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: paragon of perfect moral warfighting, determined that five hundred pound

456
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: bombs were the absolute macs that you should be dropping

457
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: in this sort of dense urban environment, and in Gaza routinely.

458
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: Israel is dropping two thousand pound bombs that we, the

459
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 1: United States of America, continue to provide them in spite

460
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: of all of our oh the civilians, Oh bomb a

461
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: little nicer. Oh maybe wrap things up in the new

462
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: year at some point. Bullshit, bullshit. All of that should

463
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: be seen as attempting to buy some cover to enable

464
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: Israel to continue this bombing longer, longer, when already again

465
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: in just the first seven weeks, more destructive than any

466
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: other war this century. So that's where we are, guys.

467
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: Appreciate you as always. You know, obviously this news is

468
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: incredibly dark, I do want to say, because I always

469
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: think him a lot about this over Christmas, in the

470
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: holiday myself. We are seeing the worst, absolute worst of humanity,

471
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: seeing things that you know, I hoped had been consigned

472
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,959
Speaker 1: to pages of history books. Clearly they hadn't been. But

473
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: I also think about, you know that, I think about

474
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: the popees being out, I think about that reverend that

475
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: I played in the beginning his comments, and I really

476
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: think about the courage of you know, the doctors and

477
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: nurses in these hospitals in Gaza, working in the most

478
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: unimaginable circumstances. Sacrificing their own lives, putting their families lives

479
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: at risk, to try to care for people as best

480
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: they possibly can. I mean, I literally can't. I can't

481
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: imagine being a doctor nor situations, let alone a war zone,

482
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: let alone the most destructive warzone in this entire century.

483
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: Just absolute heroes. I think about the journalists, more than

484
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: a hundred of whom have been killed, many of them

485
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 1: intentionally targeted for assassination, and their family members as well,

486
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: The risk that they are taking to show the world

487
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: what is happening here. Just absolute heroism. And I think

488
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: about just the ordinary people trying to survive, just trying

489
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: to keep it together and get day to day and

490
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: find a little bit of food so their kids don't

491
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: starve to death. I mean, over half a million people

492
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: now starving in Gaza. There's a lot of human bravery,

493
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: human heroism here as well. So in any case, love

494
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: you guys. I hope you are enjoying some lovely holiday time,

495
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: that you are safe and enjoying some blessings of the

496
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: season with your family and with your loved ones. And

497
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: I'll make sure to keep you guys updated if anything

498
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: else needs to be brought to you take care
