I read a post claiming Israel and the U.S. now use AI-generated intelligence to direct military actions, targeting civilians or buildings flagged as imminent or terrorist threats. Politicians, operatives, and the military defer to AI, with human decisions often secondary or ignored. The AI is biased or wrong and lacks human context, a fundamental flaw. Watch this disturbing report.
@21WIRE - Patrick Henningsen
Israel and U.S. are now AI generated “intelligence” to direct military operations, ie. targeting civilians/buildings that a computer says could pose an ‘imminent threat’ or ‘terrorist threat’ to their military operations. Politicians, intelligence operatives & military are deferring to the AI app first. Human decisions have been demoted to a mere secondary consideration, if at all. More often than not, the AI is either biased or completely wrong, with analytical capabilities that are devoid of any real context of the human subjects being tracks. This is the main fundamental flaw in this new system. Watch this disturbing report….
Video Transcript AI Summary
The segment centers on a US-led Civil-Military Coordination Center in southern Israel, established in October 2025 to monitor the Gaza ceasefire. It showcases a map of the Strip, footage of trucks, and a Dataminer report. Dataminer is a private US tech company that uses artificial intelligence to mine social media in real time to issue warnings of critical situations, highlighting the growing relationship between private AI firms and militaries and signaling a structural shift in how warfare is conducted, who controls it, who profits, and how accountability works. Heidi Khalaf, chief AI scientist at the AI Now Institute, explains that militaries rely too heavily on commercial technologies and are not investing in their own traceable, explainable models, instead using a “black box.” Gaza provides the first confirmation that commercial AI models are being directly used in warfare, justified by speed at the cost of accuracy.
The report asserts that Israel’s war in Gaza was not driven solely by soldiers but also by data prediction, location tracking, drone feeds, and AI models built by private tech firms. Palantir is described as a key player, with reports claiming they supplied AI tools to help identify and accelerate targeting of individuals in Gaza, though Palantir has denied these claims. Amazon and Google are said to have provided Israel with cloud infrastructure needed for military AI systems; both companies maintain their services are commercial, not military. These tools are said to have shifted the war from human intelligence to a data industry. While defense contracting is not new, earlier conflicts such as the 2003 US invasion of Iraq relied more on informants and interrogations; AI then involved a human in the loop, with clearer military applications. Now, the line between commercial and military use of AI is blurred, and corporations play a larger role.
A key question raised is what it means when a private AI company controls the infrastructure the military depends on, rather than the state. Khalaf notes that militaries are ceding control and state obligations to faulty technology developed by private companies with different incentives, which can lead to AI being used to evade accountability for mass civilian casualties due to model inaccuracy. The analysis concludes that war is no longer just a battlefield—it is also about who builds and controls the software governing mass civilian data.

Speaker 0: Take a look at this US led military facility in Southern Israel. It's called the Civil Military Coordination Center and was set up in October 2025 to monitor the Gaza ceasefire. Some of its tasks include managing humanitarian aid and figuring out how to rebuild Gaza. But want I you to take a look at what's on display. A map of the Strip, footage of trucks, and a report by Dataminer, a private US tech company.
It uses artificial intelligence to mine social media in real time to issue warnings of critical situations. But why does this matter? Because the use of DataMiner highlights the growing relationship between private AI tech companies and militaries. It reflects the structural transformation of how warfare works, who controls it, who profits from it, and how accountability functions. I spoke to Heidi Khalaf, the chief AI scientist at the AI Now Institute, to learn more.
Speaker 1: There's an overreliance now on these commercial technologies because militaries are not investing in their own capabilities. So instead of building models with traceable data and parameters that can then explain their behavior, militaries are instead relying on what essentially is a black box. In Gaza is where we saw the first confirmation that commercial AI models are being directly used in warfare. The justification here has been speed. So constantly when you're talking about speed, there's a sacrifice of accuracy.
Speaker 0: We've seen numerous reports of how Israel's genocide of war in Gaza was not driven only by soldiers. It was also driven by data prediction, location tracking, drone feeds, and AI models built by private tech firms. These firms helped to shape what is then designated as a target. Another private AI company, Palantir, has become a key player in Israel's war on Gaza. Reports suggest they had been supplying military with AI tools to help it identify and accelerate the targeting of individuals in Gaza.
Although I should add that Palantir has strongly denied this. Amazon and Google have provided Israel with the massive cloud infrastructure needed for military AI systems to function, although both companies have said their services are commercial, not military. These tools have shifted the war from human intelligence to a data industry. Now defense contracting isn't new, but previous wars, like the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, were built around informants and interrogations. While AI was used then, it involved a human in the loop and had clearer military applications.
But now the line between commercial and military use of AI is becoming more blurred, and corporations also play a bigger role. This development raises a question. What does it mean when a private AI company controls the infrastructure the military depends on and not the state?
Speaker 1: What essentially militaries are doing here is ceding their control and state obligations to a faulty technology developed by private companies with very different incentives, and ultimately, this results in AI being used to evade accountability for mass civilian casualties that may be caused due to how inaccurate these models are.
Speaker 0: This means that war is no longer just a battlefield. It's about who builds and controls the software of mass civilian data.

Speaker 0 describes the events as “a classic regime change color revolution destabilization operation.” He asserts that “the military strike was being prepared in advance,” and that “the violence that they carried out” was carried out by “agent provocateurs managed and inserted by US and Israeli intelligence,” with British intelligence also involved. He adds that “when it comes to Iran, The United States and Britain are hand in hand since the first coup in Iran, which was a US British operation.” He further claims that Iranians who supported the shah “fled to The US, to Europe, to Canada, where they've set themselves up,” and that “nearly all of whom are quite wealthy,” consisting of monarchists who have been “looked after very well by the US government.” He says the US regards them as a “fifth column that they can deploy during times like this.”
The speaker extends the accusation to other conflicts, stating that the US keeps “Syrian fifth column, an Afghan, an Iraqi, a Libyan fifth column,” and that wherever there’s a war, “The US and the British, the Canadians, they keep them in residence, and they use them either to create the future political class that they'll then parachute in.” He describes this as part of “the neocolonial system.” He concedes that “it didn't work out, but it was ugly.”
Regarding information warfare, he criticizes the mainstream media, politicians, and “these so called influencers,” describing their misinformation and propaganda campaign as “even uglier.” He emphasizes that “this is not the first go around,” claiming they have “been doing this perpetually for years,” with the aim of creating unrest and instability and momentum.
He explains a sequence they allegedly seek: if they can obtain momentum, it is followed by “a military strike, and then a decapitation of the leadership, and then regime change, hopefully.” He concludes that “so it didn't work out.”

Speaker 0: This was a classic regime change color revolution destabilization operation. The military strike was being prepared in advance. Because the color revolution failed, the violence that they carried out, these are agent provocateurs managed and inserted by US and Israeli intelligence and British intelligence were also involved. I mean, that goes without saying when it comes to Iran, The United States and Britain are hand in hand since the first coup in Iran, which was a US British operation. And all of the Iranians who supported the shah fled to The US, to Europe, to Canada, where they've set themselves up.
I would say nearly all of whom are quite wealthy. These are not working class Iranians, all the monarchists, and have been looked after very well by the US government. The US regard them as a fifth column that they can deploy during times like this. Just like they have a Syrian fifth column, an Afghan, an Iraqi, a Libyan fifth column. Wherever there's a war, The US and the British, the Canadians, they keep, you know, Ukrainians or whatever.
They keep them in residence, and they use them either to create the future political class that they'll then parachute in. They put them through US, British, Canadian universities, French universities, and they keep them on standby for future regime change wars. That's how it goes. That's the neocolonial system. It didn't work out, but it was ugly.
Even uglier was the misinformation and propaganda campaign that was carried out by our mainstream media, politicians, and all these so called influencers. And just bear in mind, this is not the first go around. K? They've been doing this perpetually for years, and they wanna create unrest. They wanna create instability and momentum.
And if they can get momentum and then it's followed by a military strike, and then a decapitation of the leadership, and then regime change, hopefully. So it didn't work out.

Danny discusses a photo allegedly showing Donald Trump in the Oval Office with Jelani and with “the founder of Al Qaeda in Syria,” described as the deputy of Abu Bakr al Baghdadi of ISIS, claiming Trump is allowing a terrorist to hold court in the White House. He questions what kind of rough past Trump has, arguing Trump did not have a rough past and suggesting a possible rough past related to Jeffrey Epstein in leaked emails. He asserts it’s unbelievable that Trump would compare a terrorist’s past as a prerequisite for success, as if that life of head chopping is legitimate, and says this reveals a fraud in the entire war on terror.
He then offers a controversial statement about a reverse double standard, noting that even opponents say “oh, this is Al Qaeda who did nine eleven,” but contends that the more they look, the more it shows that Israel has no problem with an ISIS leader running their neighboring country of Syria, implying this reveals who drove the “dirty war in Syria” from 2011 until the fall of the Assad government in Damascus about a year ago. He claims this situation demonstrates that it was all for Israel and that there is no objection from the Israeli lobby, IPAC, or “brain cells” as they praise the bearded head chopper in the White House, who sits next to the vice president, while Trump allows this head chopper that has slaughtered Christians, Yazidis, Alawites, Shmaelis to operate in Syria since Trump became president. Danny states Trump is presiding over what he calls the ritual humiliation of the United States, describing the optics as very bad, even worse than Zelensky, though Jelani supposedly has a leg up on Zelensky because, according to him, Jelani wore a tie and a real jacket.

Speaker 0: Danny. Well, I don't know if you've got the photo of Trump in the in the Oval Office. I have more. Have more than a photo, but keep going. With Jelani, and he's sitting there with the founder of Al Qaeda in Syria, the the the deputy of Abu Bakr al Baghdadi of ISIS in our White House.
He thinks it's his White House and he's going to allow a terrorist to hold court and he's saying, Oh, he's had a rough past. We've all had a rough past. What kind of rough past has Donald Trump had? Donald Trump did not have a rough past. Maybe his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein's gonna end up being his rough past according to recent emails leaked.
It's just unbelievable that he would compare. He would say that that's a prerequisite for success, that you have to have a rough past. He's somehow legitimizing a life of head chopping as a sort of sworn enemy of The United States in the global war on terror, and he's saying that's a rough past. Just devoid of any kind of detail as to the real reality of the situation. What it does is shows you what a fraud the entire war on terror was.
And you know what's funny about this as well? Might be controversial statement on my part, but I'll say it. There's a bit of a reverse double sigh up going on. Even the people that oppose this are saying, oh, this is Al Qaeda who did nine eleven. Okay, fine.
If you believe that, great. The reality is the more we're looking at this, the fact that Israel has no problem with an ISIS leader running their neighboring country of Syria tells you a lot about who were the driving force behind the entire dirty war in Syria from when it sort of kicked off in 2011 till the fall of the Assad government a year ago in Damascus. This was all for Israel. That's why you don't see any objection from the Israeli lobby, from IPAC, from any of these brain cells. They're sitting there lauding this guy, this bearded head chopper in our White House sitting next to the vice president, and Donald Trump is sitting there allowing these head chopper that has slaughtered Christians, Yazidis, Alawites, Shmaelis, who who's running pogroms in Syria since Donald Trump became president, and he's he's got him in a in a in a suit sitting in our White House.
I mean, this is this is the ritual humiliation of The United States Of America with Donald Trump presiding over it. The optics of this are so bad. It's worse than Zelensky. Although, Zulani has a leg up on Zelensky, at least he wore a freaking tie and a real jacket.

Speaker 1 believes Trump has no choice, due to agreements with major donors beyond Miriam Adelson, obliging him to underwrite Netanyahu's actions. Speaker 1 notes Netanyahu arranged a meeting between the U.S. and Azerbaijan, not the State Department, indicating the Israel lobby's grip. Speaker 1 believes Trump is obliged to comply and won't diverge.
Speaker 0 asks if Trump has no choice but to militarily back Israel if it attacks Iran. Speaker 1 thinks so, noting the possibility of Israel precipitating a war with Iran.

Speaker 0: Why do you, think colonel, president Trump, unleashed prime minister Netanyahu Netanyahu to resume genocide in Gaza, which unfortunately resulted I say unfortunately, it was intentional, the killing of 400 civilians, in the past two days.
Speaker 1: I don't think he has any choice. I think when he ran for office, he made certain agreements with major donors. These donors are move far beyond just Miriam Adelson, and these donors oblige him to effectively underwrite whatever mister Netanyahu wants to do. I thought it I thought it was interesting that a recent meeting was set up for The United States with Azerbaijan to talk about cooperation with Israel, but it was it's set up by mister Netanyahu. He called and made the arrangements with mister Aliyev, who's the president of Azerbaijan.
The state department did not do it. I think we're very much in the in the grip of the Israel lobby, and I think president Trump is obliged to go along. And I don't see any evidence that he's gonna diverge from that path.
Speaker 0: Does he have no choice, but to back up Israel militarily when it attacks Iran?
Speaker 1: I think so. And keep in mind, you always have the possibility that a war is precipitated somehow by Israel somewhere in the region with Iran. The Iranians respond, and the expectation is with the buildup of force in the region, you know we're sending additional carrier battle groups over there right now. The the expectation is that we will reinforce whatever the Israelis want to do. We've already done all of the planning for joint strikes and joint strike packages.
We're sharing all of the intelligence with our vast satellite arrays with theirs. So I I think it's a foregone conclusion. I can't predict when or how, but I think it's going to happen.

During the discussion, references were made to the Holocaust and its implications regarding the treatment of Palestinians. One speaker expressed that using Holocaust references to justify actions against Palestinians is offensive. The conversation shifted to the atrocities committed on October 7, with differing views on the nature of these events. One participant argued that those involved were born into dire conditions in Gaza, while another emphasized the need for Israel to respond to violence realistically. The legality of Israel's blockade of Gaza was debated, with claims that it constitutes collective punishment. The discussion highlighted the complexity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with both sides presenting their perspectives on violence, morality, and historical grievances.

Speaker 0: Go ahead.
Speaker 1: Hi. During your speech, you made a lot of references to Jewish people as well as certain people in your audience, not Jewish people in general, but certain people, especially in your audience, to Nazis. Now that is extremely offensive when certain people
Speaker 2: are German, and they're also extremely offensive to people who've actually separated from the Nazi world. I don't respect that anymore. I really don't. I don't like and I don't respect the crocodile peers
Speaker 3: to con to the crocodile
Speaker 2: peers. No.
Speaker 3: And so, folks, allow me to finish. And allow me to allow me to finish. Listen, sir. Allow me to sit here. Allow me to finish.
Sir. Sir, I don't like to play I don't like to play before an audience the holocaust card. But since now I feel now I feel compelled to, my late father was an out my late mother please shut up. My late father was an out My late mother was in my diamond concentration camp. Every single member of my family on my father's side The Jews did not take airs against the Jews.
My late father was in Auschwitz concentration camp. My late mother was in my diamond lessons my parents taught me and my Kuze siblings that I will not be silent when Israel commits its crimes against the Palestinians. And I consider nothing more despicable than to use their suffering and their martyrdom to try to justify the torture, the brutalization, the demolition of homes that Israel currently commits against the Palestinians. So I refuse any longer to be intimidated or browbeaten by the tears.
Speaker 0: If you
Speaker 3: had any part of you, you would be crying to the Palestinians. Not from what's
Speaker 0: inside.
Speaker 4: Would you condemn Hamas for what they did?
Speaker 2: My view is as follows. Number 1, as far as the evidence shows now, atrocities occurred on October 7th. The magnitude of the atrocities and the types of atrocities, for example, where children beheaded, where women raped, that remains so far as I can tell from the evidence an open question. However, that there were that occurred, my answer is yes. That's a factual question.
And then there is the legal question. As a matter of law, it seems unquestionable that the people who perpetrated these atrocities would be prosecuted and convicted in a court of law. However, I would say on the legal question, I should think that there would be some mercy shown because of those who carried out the atrocities were concentration camp inmates. Number 3, which I think is the one that concerns you the most, is the moral question. My basic precept is that there but for the grace of god, go I.
That is to say, I'm very reluctant to condemn people who are in a position or in a condition such that where I in that position or condition, I'm not sure what I would do. Now the 1500 young men who burst the gates of Gaza, they were born into a concentration camp. They lived for 2 decades in a concentration camp. They had no past. They had no present.
They had no future. They had no jobs. Half of them, according to humanitarian organizations, suffered from what's called severe food insecurity. And then on top of that, as I'm sure you know, Pierce, because you keep up with the news, periodically, Israel goes into Gaza and it mows the lawn. And you know what mows the lawn means.
It means a high-tech massacre in Gaza. In 2,008, 9, operation cast led, 2012, operation pillar of defense, 2014, operation protected edge, and in each of these high-tech massacres visited on the people of Gaza, in some cases, 100, in some cases, 1,000 of Palestinians are killed. You asked me why I won't condemn them. Because those young men were born into a concentration camp. They were born into among the most dense populated places on God's Earth.
Half of the population of Gaza's children, 70% are refugees who were expelled from Israel in 1948 and their descendants. 70% of Gaza's youth have no jobs, no future, no nothing. Okay. And the people of Gaza
Speaker 3: have the right to hate
Speaker 2: the people who destroy their lives.
Speaker 5: Do you honestly think that a leader of Israel is in a position after the biggest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust Mhmm.
Speaker 0: To
Speaker 5: say, you know what? What we should do in retaliate in reaction or in in reaction to this is free the Palestinian, whatever that looks like. Mhmm.
Speaker 0: This is
Speaker 5: never gonna happen. Right? Correct. And I'm interested in living in the real world as I think you are. If you care about the lives of Palestinians and Israelis and everybody else, that means there has to be some kind of way of resolving this that is based in reality.
And in reality, whatever way you look at it, you've got 2 tribes that absolutely hate each other with good reason for both sides to hate each other because there's been atrocity against both sides throughout history. You may argue about who's responsible and blah blah blah. Reality on the ground is, this is where we are. So my question is, how should Israel have reacted in that situation in the real world?
Speaker 2: What in the real world should the Palestinians have done if they tried negotiations, they gestured to supporting either a 2 state settlement here referring to Hamas, or what they called a, a long term cease fire, when in March beginning March 30th 2018, they try not least because of my encouragement. They tried nonviolent civil resistance. And what was the Israeli response? We know exactly. There's a 250 page single spaced UN report describing the response.
Israel took its best snipers, lined them up along the perimeter fence. And while it was this festive to describe these, the word of the UN report atmosphere among the Palestinians, there was music, there was dancing, there was song. The snipers, I'm quoting the report, intentionally targeted children, medics, journalists, disabled people. They describe double amputees, 300 meters from the perimeter fence that Israel shot. When they didn't build them, they targeted them from the kneecap down to inflict, to use the technical term, life changing injuries, which for the layperson translates as paralyzed them.
1 Israeli sniper boasted to Harit's newspaper, Israel's most serious newspaper. He shot 42 kneecaps in one day. 42 children and adults paralyzed for life. And so when all the options of diplomacy, nonviolent civil resistance, when they've been exhausted, what were they supposed to do?
Speaker 6: You know how many citizens, civilians died in October 7th Yes.
Speaker 7: But that's not You
Speaker 6: know there are lots of allegations of rape. I don't know how persuaded you are of those. They did find bodies without heads.
Speaker 4: There were no beheadings.
Speaker 6: There were there were some beheadings apparently.
Speaker 2: The Israelis didn't even claim that in the document they submitted before the ICJ. Go read what your government submitted. It never mentioned beheadings. So as
Speaker 6: far as I know, I was people were beheaded.
Speaker 0: But they
Speaker 2: We could bring it up right now.
Speaker 6: You also deny that there were rapes there.
Speaker 2: I didn't deny. I said I've not seen convincing evidence that confirms it. I've said that from day 1, and I'll say it today, 4 and a half months later.
Speaker 6: Do you know that they killed 8 or 900 civilians
Speaker 2: in this whole Absolutely. That seems to me indisputable. Oh, okay. Well, let me Yes. And that's it too confusing to me.
I've said that I've said that from day 1.
Speaker 8: Well, to be clear, you haven't. You did a debate. I remember the talk show, but you seem to imply that there was a lot of crossfire, and it might have been the idea that
Speaker 2: you still thought of. I said that there is no question because the names were published in Harrods. There's no question that roughly of the 1200 people killed, 800 of them were civilians. 850. 850.
Fine. So I never said that, but then I said, no. We don't know exactly how they were killed. But 850 civilians killed. No question there.
Speaker 0: There's a
Speaker 8: lot of tricky language being employed here. Do you think of the 850?
Speaker 2: Called attaching value to words and not walking like a motor mount. United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, a 1000 humanitarian and economic organizations have all reached the same conclusion. It's very simple. The main cause of the disaster in Gaza is Israel's illegal blockade of that parcel of land. Full stop.
Speaker 4: That's wrong. That's wrong. That's wrong.
Speaker 8: That's false.
Speaker 2: Who's wrong? Who's wrong? That is wrong.
Speaker 4: The World Bank The blockade
Speaker 2: the humanitarian monetary
Speaker 4: fund is wrong.
Speaker 0: They're all wrong.
Speaker 4: Yes. What's going on? I didn't say that.
Speaker 0: They're wrong.
Speaker 4: I happen to remember that they're wrong. But that Because the blockade was completely lawful. It was designed to prevent the importation and then the use of rockets against Israel.
Speaker 0: It's perfectly lawful for a country to engage in a blockade. That is like, you're not
Speaker 4: let's a country to engage in a blockade. That is let me finish. You can't have a Israel is exposed to a double standard, but we're letting you impose a double standard on me. No. I'm gonna finish my statement, and you're
Speaker 2: not gonna interrupt me.
Speaker 4: So understand me. The military occupation was lawful. The blockade was lawful. Every country has the right to defend itself from rockets, from terror tunnels, from people coming over the border, murdering and kidnapping people. Those are all lawful.
I'm telling you that as an expert in international law and the law of war. Okay. If you wanna dispute me, get an expert who knows something about international law. Okay. Not a
Speaker 6: not a not a polemic
Speaker 2: not a Okay. Professor Dershowitz, just as a matter of fact, I teach the laws of war. I've been teaching it for the last 5 years. For my understanding, you're you're biased. Okay.
Professor Dershowitz. Okay. Professor Dershowitz, let's agree. I'm completely ignorant. Let's take that as a point of departure.
How does it come to be Yes. That every humanitarian and political body in the world has declared that the blockade of Gaza constitutes collective punishment and therefore is a violation, a breach of international law, a war crime under international law. How did that come to pass?
Speaker 4: They're wrong.
Speaker 2: How is it that free? You're wrong.
Speaker 4: They're wrong. No. You're not you're not right. You're
Speaker 2: not right. No.
Speaker 6: No. No.
Speaker 2: You're wrong. You're wrong
Speaker 4: in describing Professor Dershowitz. You're wrong in describing every group. There are many
Speaker 2: why? Okay. Professor Dershowitz, name me one legal international, legal body or human rights organization. Name me 1. I'll take the pause.
Name me 1
Speaker 0: That one.
Speaker 2: That says the blockade of Gaza is not collective punishment. Name me 1.
Speaker 4: The Lawfare Project in the United States.
Speaker 2: The Lawfare the Lawfare Project. I said, name me
Speaker 3: 1 international
Speaker 2: legal or political body.
Speaker 3: It is. 1.
Speaker 0: It is.
Speaker 4: Everybody's listening now. Political body.
Speaker 2: Harris Morgan has a very large audience.
Speaker 3: Name me one.
Speaker 6: It's international or legal.
Speaker 2: International or legal. Legal political body that says the blockade of Gaza is legal. Name me 1.
Speaker 4: It is legal. And every every organization that I have been associated with, the Lawfare Project, the project run
Speaker 0: by the
Speaker 4: woman named Leitner, and the International Project, we're all all have all concluded that the blockade
Speaker 2: is legal.
Speaker 4: Also, the Israeli Supreme
Speaker 2: Professor Mars Yes. You just said, I would condemn anytime Israel deliberately attacks civilians. Yes. Okay? The problem, professor Morris, is over and over again, you claim in the face of overwhelming evidence that they didn't attack civilians.
Speaker 6: That's not true. I've said it
Speaker 9: as a tax bill. Professor.
Speaker 6: Israel attacks.
Speaker 9: Right. I know that.
Speaker 6: In Castro, they cure civilians.
Speaker 2: And I've And now let's let's So you're you're you're just eliminating. You're selecting as as even if you're cherry pick. If I were you for you to cherry pick, let's fast forward when you were an adult. What did you say about the 1982 Lebanon war? What did I say?
You don't remember? Okay. Allow me. Wow. Okay.
You said that you are not a person of double standards, unlike people like me. You hold high a single standard, and you condemn deliberate Israeli attacks
Speaker 6: on When they occur. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I would say that's true for the period up till 1967, and I think it's accurate, your account of the First Intifada. There, it seems to me you are in conformity with most mainstream accounts. In the case of the First Intifada, you also used, surprisingly, you used Arab human rights sources like al Haqq, which I think Muin worked for during the 1st intifada. That's true. But then something very strange happens.
So let's illustrate it. So this is what you have to say about Israel's invasion of Lebanon in 1982. He said Israel was reluctant to harm civilians, sought to avoid casualties on both sides, and took care not to harm Lebanese and Palestinian civilians. He then went on to acknowledge the massive use of IDF firepower against civilians during the siege of Beirut, which traumatized Israeli society, Marx Mars quickly enters the caveat that Israel, quote, tried to pinpoint military targets, but inevitably many civilians were hit. That's your description of the Lebanon war.
As I say, that's when I first got involved in the conflict. I am a voracious reader. I read everything on the Lebanon War. I would say there's not a single account of the Lebanon War in which the estimates are between 15,200 Palestinian and Lebanese were killed, overwhelmingly civilians, the biggest bloodletting until the current Gaza genocide, biggest bloodletting, I would say I can't think of a single mainstream account that remotely approximates what you just said. So leaving aside, I can name the books, voluminous huge values.
I'll just take one example. Now you will remember because I think you served in Lebanon in 82. Am I correct on that?
Speaker 0: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So you'll remember that Dov Yarmia kept the war diary. So with your permission, allow me to subscribe what he wrote during his diary. So he writes, the war machine of the IDF is galloping and trampling over the conquered territory, demonstrating a total insensitivity to the fate of the territory, demonstrating a total insensitivity to the fate of the Arabs who
Speaker 0: are found in its path. A PLO
Speaker 2: run hospital suffered a direct hit. Thousands of refugees are returning to the city. When they arrive at their homes, many of which have been destroyed or damaged, you hear their
Speaker 6: forget my description.
Speaker 2: Forget it?
Speaker 6: The point you're making
Speaker 2: No. No. No. Let me let me
Speaker 6: just finish my sentence. The point you're making, which you somehow forget, is that there are Israelis who strongly criticize their own side and describe how Israelis are doing things which they regard as immoral. You don't find that on the Arab side.
Speaker 9: I'm talking about doing that.
Speaker 2: Mister Morris, I'm not talking about death. No. Netanyahu is the leftist. Talking about you, the historian. How did you depict the Lebanon war?
Speaker 6: Me. I agree that the Israeli military tried to avoid committing a civilian capital.
Speaker 2: So death. Absolutely. As well. And I think they can
Speaker 0: All the all the
Speaker 2: house by Robert Fisk and pity the nation. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I know. All all
Speaker 9: the journalists.
Speaker 6: I know. Has always been.
Speaker 2: Right. So that's why that's why you can say with such confidence that you don't commit you don't condemn deliberate Israeli attacks. There weren't any. No. I didn't the word.
Yeah. You didn't?
Speaker 6: You agreed that I have condemned Israeli attacks.
Speaker 2: Yes. There are I'm serious. I never quarrel with facts. Your description of the 1980 2 war is so shocking, it makes my inners ride. And then your description of the 2nd intifada, your description of defensive shield
Speaker 9: When they are Arab bombing words.
Speaker 2: Is that when Arab suicide bombers when
Speaker 6: Arab suicide bombers would destroy Jews in masses and in restaurants. No. That's the second intifada. Do you remember that?
Speaker 2: You could try
Speaker 6: suicide bombers in Jerusalem's buses and restaurants.
Speaker 2: I am completely aware of that. But you but if you forgot the numbers No.
Speaker 6: I don't forget the numbers.
Speaker 2: It was 3 to 1.
Speaker 6: The number killed mostly
Speaker 2: armed No. Palestinian government. That's what you say in the book.
Speaker 6: That's right.
Speaker 2: But that's not what Amnesty International said. That's not what human rights were. I don't remember what they said. I do. Benny Morris now says, we don't know whether Israel has nuclear weapons.
Well, that's a very odd thing for him to say because Benny Morris has been explicitly blackmailing the West since 2008, saying, if you don't, meaning the United States, if the US doesn't join in an attack on Iran, we, meaning Israel, have no alternative except to use nonconventional, that is to say, nuclear weapons. So if I can quote him now, it is doubtful that its capabilities will be sufficient to destroy the Iranian nuclear project. Then nonconventional weaponry will have to be used to stymie the project. And many innocent Iranians will die, but the Iranians will have brought this upon themselves by bringing to power and leaving in power a leadership that will have forced Israelis to do what was necessary in order to survive. So Benny Morris, who doesn't know whether Israel possesses nuclear weapons, nonetheless, says Israel will have to use nonconventional weapons.
And he says many Iranians will have to die, maybe in the 1,000,000, maybe tens of 1,000,000, but they deserved it because they well, that's what he said. Mister Morris, you can laugh till kingdom come, but I'm quoting your words. But he said, that's okay because they voted for the regime.
Speaker 0: No.
Speaker 2: This is this is absurd. This is true.
Speaker 6: I said Israel No. No. And and then let me respond.
Speaker 0: Let me
Speaker 3: Hang on. Hang on.
Speaker 4: Hang on. Hang on. Norman, let I think Benny Morris should be able to respond to your direct charge there because you accused him of laughing at it.
Speaker 2: I'm in charge. I I called it.
Speaker 0: And you
Speaker 4: said you were laughing about it.
Speaker 2: So let me get to
Speaker 4: Benny Morris.
Speaker 2: As is as
Speaker 6: is your want, you didn't quote me properly. What I said was that if Israel is unable with conventional weapons to destroy the Iranian project and if the Americans don't do it in conjunction with Israel or by themselves, Israel will be forced to use nonconventional weapons and attack the nuclear escalation. Not not not
Speaker 2: millions of Iranians.
Speaker 6: No. No. No. You said
Speaker 2: millions of Iranians. I've
Speaker 6: never said anything. I have you are lying. You are lying. You are lying. You are lying.
Speaker 0: You are lying. You are lying. You are lying. You think happens if you drop You are lying.
Speaker 6: You think happens if you drop You are lying.
Speaker 2: Samaris, what
Speaker 0: do you
Speaker 6: think happens if
Speaker 2: you drop drop nuclear weapons on Iran. What do you think happens?
Speaker 0: No. Not
Speaker 4: only. Not on Iran. Nuclear bombs on Iran.
Speaker 6: Mis get Norman, you are misfolding me. Professor Morin
Speaker 2: For you to say we can't trust Iran after Israel's record on nuclear weapons, as even you so shamefacedly and shamelessly say, I don't know if Israel has nuclear weapons. You really don't. You advocate Israel's use of them in the event that the US doesn't join the attack on Iran, but then you don't know if Israel has nuclear weapons. You're such a shameless liar, which is a sad fact. I spent many, many a week reading your books.
I spent many, many a month reading your books. And to see how you have degenerated into a state propagandist and a bold a bold a bold faced liar, very, very sad. Very sad. Every time they target a kid, I'm sure they believe it's Hamas. When they can't see what they yeah.
When they killed the 4 kids in the they
Speaker 0: believed? Yeah.
Speaker 2: They believed. I know they believed. Even though they were primitive. You know? Even though they were primitive.
You never see the shot. Guys, no. They saw it. That's that's even tough. Oh, I know.
Speaker 3: You know
Speaker 9: what he's quoting. You lied about this particular instance of
Speaker 0: the past.
Speaker 9: Those the beaches as opposition articles. Those kids were literally coming out of a previously identified Hamas contract that they have operated from. They literally
Speaker 2: can do the rally. You
Speaker 9: can do the rally.
Speaker 2: I don't remember. With all due respect, you're such a fantastic moron. It's terrifying. That wharf was filled with journalists. There were tens to answer, or do you want your motor mouth to go?
Okay. Answer. In 2018, there was the great March of Return in Gaza. By all reckonings of human rights organizations and journalists who were there, it was overwhelmingly nonviolent.
Speaker 4: It was said by the Hamas.
Speaker 2: Whoever organized It's organized by Satan. Let's start
Speaker 4: with by Hamas. Okay. Satan.
Speaker 2: I agree. Let's let's go for the big one. The big Megillah. It's Satan. Okay?
Overwhelmingly nonviolent. Resemble at the beginning. The first Bombs
Speaker 6: here and there.
Speaker 2: The first intifada. They both
Speaker 6: here and there.
Speaker 3: Okay. Not bombs. But they're they make fools
Speaker 2: in the States. Okay. Obviously. Let's continue.
Speaker 6: So But I'm not sure Israel will be morally
Speaker 2: in that.
Speaker 6: Okay. Okay. Okay.
Speaker 4: Wait. Wait. Wait. I'm willing to grant you. Please.
Speaker 2: I'm willing to grant you.
Speaker 6: You don't have to propose this.
Speaker 2: I'm willing to grant you.
Speaker 0: I don't
Speaker 2: know anything about this. I'd like to. Okay. As you know, along with the Gaza perimeter, there was Israel's best trained snipers. Correct?
Speaker 6: I don't have best trained snipers.
Speaker 2: Fine. Sniper. Okay. Alright? Hey, laugh.
It's hilarious. This story is
Speaker 0: so funny. You're lying up in the train west corner and aspects of violence to it. Okay.
Speaker 2: What even the UN says it themselves?
Speaker 9: Okay. If it's
Speaker 2: so much harder than aspects of violence to it or
Speaker 9: even the UN says it themselves. Okay. Okay. But you only plug what the UN says that you like.
Speaker 2: See, the problem, mister Morelli, is you don't know the ling English language.
Speaker 9: You don't I can read from the UN website itself. I'm sorry.
Speaker 0: The great March of the day said, while the vast majority of protesters have acted in a peaceful manner, during most protests, dozens have approached
Speaker 9: defense, committing
Speaker 0: Israel and risk the lives
Speaker 9: of Israeli civilians.
Speaker 0: Some in
Speaker 9: this shooting, throwing of explosives across
Speaker 3: the border. What fast? What fast? What you're gonna
Speaker 2: think of your coke? I'm just reading for the US. Yeah. But you say I do
Speaker 9: like the time. I tell
Speaker 2: what I agree with you.
Speaker 3: You got the months wrong. You got
Speaker 2: the months wrong. We're talking about the beginning in March 30th. You
Speaker 9: just described that March. Okay. Allow me to finish.
Speaker 2: So there were the snipers. Now you'll find it so far fetched. Israelis purposely, deliberately targeting civilians. That's such a far fetched idea. An overwhelmingly nonviolent march.
What did the international What did the march?
Speaker 6: It was a campaign. Yeah. Whatever you wanna call.
Speaker 2: For months. Whatever you wanna call. For months. Yeah. What did the UN investigation find?
Well, he just made it. I read the report. I don't read things off of those machines. I read the report. What did it find?
Brace yourself. You thought it was so funny, the idea of IDF targeting civilians. It found go look this up on your machine.
Speaker 0: I already
Speaker 9: know what you're gonna say. You're gonna say now there's only 1 or 2
Speaker 5: of them
Speaker 2: were adjusted by killing. Targeted journalists, targeted medics, and here's the funniest one of all. It's so hilarious. They targeted disabled people who were 300 meters away from the fence and just standing by trees. This is true.
Speaker 10: My criticism of Norman Finkelstein is slightly more prosaic. I have no problem at all with writers being provocative. It's what I am paid to do. But you're not very good at it. You're a hack writer.
You made a factual error.
Speaker 2: You're certainly empowered to your opinion. I don't know of any expertise. No. I don't know of I don't know of any expertise you have in the past.
Speaker 10: You've been understated by a large number the number of holocaust survivors. Okay. Very briefly.
Speaker 2: I would like to answer.
Speaker 6: Very briefly, please. I
Speaker 9: don't
Speaker 2: claim at all to be an authority in the Nazi holocaust. The book, The Holocaust Industry, is not about the Nazi holocaust. It's a book about how the holocaust has been rendered in popular opinion and in so called scholarship. The figure I got of under 100,000 survivors of the Nazi holocaust, it didn't come from me. It came from Raul Hilberg.
I think you you'll agree if you have any knowledge of the Nazi holocaust, which is doubtful. But if you have any knowledge in the Nazi holocaust, you'll know that the world's leading authority in the Nazi holocaust, bar none, was Raoul Hilbert. He was in a class all his own. Raoul Hilbert praised the holocaust industry. In fact, he said my conclusions in the book were conservative.
Now Raoul Hilberg was begged by US Holocaust Museum and his close friend, Elie Wiesel, to remove his name from the book. And he said, no. I refuse to remove my name from the book because what Finkelstein wrote is true. He said Finkelstein's place in history as a historian is secure, and what was done to me was a travesty. So when you come along and say you're a hack writer, I attach as much value to that as I attach to the dust on this floor.
Speaker 7: We have now seen incident after incident where entire families are vaporized in single strikes.
Speaker 6: Who is in the families? Who lives in the house? Families inside? No. Next to the house.
Speaker 2: Families these,
Speaker 7: families We have seen incident
Speaker 0: Do you
Speaker 6: know that Hamasniks weren't in that house?
Speaker 0: Do you
Speaker 2: know that there are ammunition
Speaker 6: dumps weren't in
Speaker 0: the house? Why do
Speaker 2: I have to prove a negative?
Speaker 6: You're saying that they're deliberately positive about families. If Israel wanted to kill civilians in in Gaza, they could have killed 500,000 by now with the number of
Speaker 2: strikes and the fact
Speaker 6: that they
Speaker 0: only killed a certain small number
Speaker 6: 30,000 is a small number.
Speaker 2: 30,000 is a small number. Small number in proportion. 30,000 small number
Speaker 6: in proportion over 4 months. Probably is an indication
Speaker 2: that that's targeted and
Speaker 6: that there are mass targets in these places.
Speaker 2: So I've given 1000 children is only. And if that's the case, why is it yeah. You said only. Professor Morris, here's a question to you. If we take every combat zone in the world for the past 3 years, every combat zone in the world Vietnam Americans killed this.
A million people. Well, they could've killed 40,000,000. I wasn't yeah. For the past 3 years and you multiply the number of children killed by 4, every combat zone in the world, you get gossip. Okay?
So What's the purpose
Speaker 9: of proof?
Speaker 2: Okay. I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 6: help you. Shut up.
Speaker 2: You're aligned
Speaker 3: with the lost numbers. No. I'm not
Speaker 2: lying to the numbers. Numbers. Everybody else I'm I'm not lying in the numbers. No.
Speaker 0: I'm not lying in the numbers. I'm lying in
Speaker 9: the numbers.
Speaker 2: Okay. Okay.
Speaker 6: Which may not be true. I could invent anything because
Speaker 2: you know
Speaker 6: that they are a mendacious order in my favor.
Speaker 0: I know
Speaker 2: I know mendacious. Believe me. You like Mendacious as in Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. So here's the thing. You say they could have killed 500,000, but they only killed only that's your word.
Speaker 0: I'm not
Speaker 2: They're only killed You already found
Speaker 6: believe that they deliberately target civilians,
Speaker 0: they could
Speaker 6: would have killed many,
Speaker 2: many more. The fact is that Professor Mars professor
Speaker 0: Mars.
Speaker 2: And
Speaker 6: you don't understand For
Speaker 2: a historian I don't want to understand Israeli society. You don't wanna know the truth. I don't want to. Don't want to get inside
Speaker 6: their heads.
Speaker 2: That's the problem. 90% of their heads. 90 percent
Speaker 6: of their heads. 90 percent of their heads. 90 percent of
Speaker 2: their heads. Tries to get into
Speaker 6: the heads
Speaker 2: of their limit. There's a limit. When 90 percent when 90 percent of Israelis think that Israel is using enough or too little force in Gaza, I don't wanna get inside that head. 40% think that Israel is using insufficient force in Gaza. I don't wanna get inside that head.
I don't wanna get inside the head of people who think they're using insufficient force against the population against the population, half of which is children. I don't wanna get inside that hit.
Speaker 6: Why is that illegal? To blockade Gaza.
Speaker 0: I'll tell
Speaker 2: you why.
Speaker 6: You don't rock it illegally.
Speaker 0: You rock it later.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you why. I'll tell you why. Expect consequences.
Speaker 7: But that works both ways.
Speaker 2: I know. No. No. I expect that. Professor Maher.
Professor Maher. Both ways.
Speaker 3: I'll tell
Speaker 2: you why. Because every human rights, humanitarian, and UN organization in the world No.
Speaker 0: It's irrelevant.
Speaker 2: Has said has said, you have to fund hey.
Speaker 6: Nobody cares about that.
Speaker 2: I understand. It's a form of collective punishment, which is illegal under international law. Illegal. The word
Speaker 0: is illegal.
Speaker 2: You think you think a blockade is You don't understand where the world works. Yeah. These And you think and you think confining because that's the blockade.
Speaker 6: Yes. You don't
Speaker 2: understand. I'm just Confining confining a 1000000 children That's
Speaker 6: the choice. Confining
Speaker 2: a 1000000 children in what The Economist calls Okay. A human rubbish sheet.
Speaker 6: The economist supported Israel in this war and continue to support Israel.
Speaker 2: But International Committee of the Red Cross called a sinking ship, but the UN High Commissioner For Human Rights called a toxic slum. You think It is a slumber. You you think That
Speaker 6: is court
Speaker 2: under international law, you think it's legitimate to get the law.
Speaker 6: Hey. I know
Speaker 2: you wanna forget the law.
Speaker 0: It's the
Speaker 2: one thing that every it's what every Israeli fears the most. What? The law. No. No.
No. No. Said, I studied international law. I oppose international law. Of course, you don't wanna hear about the law.
Yeah. It's got nothing to do with anything. Okay. So here's the thing. Yeah.
Then don't complain about October 7th. If you don't want to You hear me complain? If you wanna say forget about law What I said was say,
Speaker 6: like, there
Speaker 2: are no international humanitarian law. There's no distinction between civilians and combatants.
Speaker 6: There should be.
Speaker 3: And so There should be. Now you're
Speaker 2: doing what Moeen said. You're becoming very selective about the law. If you wanna forget about the law, Hamas had every right
Speaker 4: to do what he did.
Speaker 2: He had every right to do what he did according to you, not to me because you want to forget the law.

Speaker 0: A few words about the recent US military escalation in the Middle East. Like all US military actions, this one relies on a lie in order to give it the pretense of legitimacy. The claim by Washington is that Iranian backed forces or Iranian proxies have killed 3 US soldiers in Jordan in a place called tower 22. Now this is significant where the location is because had it been a few meters In the Syrian territory, this would have had huge legal implications for the United States. It also meant that the United States would not have been able to retaliate in the broad fashion that it has done.
Because the fact is the United States has been illegally occupying 25% of Syria's territory since 2017. For no reason at all well, there is a good reason why they're there. They're there to squat the Syrian oil fields in and around the Deir ez Zor area and to keep Syria from having access to its oil, its gas, also its agriculture, as well, all of its resources, while simultaneously the United States and the EU apply vicious sanctions like a total embargo on the country of Syria. So this is all part of the maximum pressure strangulation of Syria, but there's another reason why the United States is there and specifically in the area of Al Tanf, on the border there with Jordan. This magically is where ISIS loiters and hangs out.
And what's amazing is that ISIS doesn't exist in any territory controlled by the Syrian government. ISIS only exists and is allowed to exist in areas where the United States military are. And if you look at after these US attacks, So these cruise missiles, these salvos, the bombing that was done over the last 48 hours by the United States and its coalition of the willing. What's interesting is that ISIS took advantage of this and mounted attacks against Iraqi militias. Those resistance forces, these Iraqi resistance militias, these aren't just ragtag militias.
These are part of the people's mobilization units or the Hashd al Shaabi. These fall under the Iraqi Ministry of Defense. They were deputized during the rise of ISIS to fight ISIS. Those forces are there in the Iraqi and Syria border regions in order to protect The Iraqi people against the emergence of ISIS. And ISIS is still on the loose in these areas where the United States appears to be providing them some level of cover or level of protection.
It's quite obvious after US strikes against these Iraqi militia facilities that ISIS then took advantage of that. And the joke is if ISIS had an air force, it would be the United States and Israel. And this Time and time again, we see examples of this. This happened many times in Syria, during the height of the dirty war over that period of 2012, into 2020. Okay?
So this is beyond debate at this point. And by the way, the Iraqi parliament has passed multiple resolutions, made multiple statements condemning the US presence in Iraq. Nobody wants them there in Iraq. Nobody wants them in Syria. The Syrian government never invited them.
The United States flew in and occupied with their Kurdish militia proxies. Those are real proxies, the ones the United States are paying and developing there to create a breakaway state in Northeastern Syria. A lot of people might be surprised at everything I'm saying, but this is all factual. You can go ahead and Look it up, but you will not I guarantee you will not hear or see anything like this in the United States mainstream media or the European media or the UK, for that matter. This idea that the United States has to escalate, in order to deescalate tensions, in the region is ridiculous.
Likewise, the idea that United States is doing this as a deterrent against Iran is ridiculous because Iran didn't attack the United States. It's the Iraqi militias, the PMUs. It's the resistance in Syria and Iraq. You're not going to deter them. They are not Iran.
They will continue to attack US facilities because they don't want them there. United States is illegal. They shouldn't be occupying Syria and the Iraqis don't want them either. So Washington is totally tied up in knots as usual on this issue, and nobody within the Beltway knows what's going on in the Middle East anymore. It certainly doesn't look like I do.
So why are these lies important? Because these lies paper over reality, and we see this time and time again. With Crane, the lie to justify the proxy war against Russia was that Russia was planning to take over the whole of Ukraine and then reestablish the Russian Empire in Eastern Europe. And because of that, it gave the green light for this massive unprecedented Arms build up and proxy war in Ukraine is was a lie. What it was designed to do cover up the reality that NATO is the one who has been expanding.
So in similar fashion, the the the other big lie here is that Iran is planning to take over the region and reestablish the Persian Empire. You laugh, but I hear people in Washington tell us this all the time. And in similar fashion, the other lie is that Hamas intends to genocide All Jews in Palestine and Israel. This is another lie that's designed to cover up the reality, the proven documented fact that Israel is undertaking, intends to and is executing an actual genocide in Gaza. So time and time again, you See these lies one after another.
And this latest one is that the Iran has killed 3 US service I mean, Americans are up in arms demanding that the United States, once again turn the Middle East into, a glass crater. So a literal reboot of the neo conservative hysterics, okay? The reality is this, the reason the It states are in those positions illegally in Syria and in Jordan and everywhere else in the region for that matter is because of the state of Israel. Israel requires the United States be there to weaken their neighbor to the North Syria, but also to prevent Any, functional border between Syria and Iraq that can be used for trade or even for military assistance, of course, from Iran all the way to Lebanon. Okay?
That is the reason. So let's not lie to ourselves. And by the way, the US is stealing the oil in Syria. Donald Trump said it. We need to go take the oil.
The United States went and took the oil, and they're still taking the oil. And they're using the Funds from the stolen Syrian oil that should be going to heat homes in Syria while they're being embargoed, while people are starving in Syria. The United States steals that fuel and then sells it for cash and uses that cash for a slush fund likely for black ops or something like this. It's probably been quite useful, to have, some cash that you don't have to get appropriations from Congress for. So that's the reality of the situation there.
So let's just dispense, with any pretenses here. ISIS is not there on its own. ISIS can only exist with the US presence in the region. Okay? The US has done nothing, to eliminate ISIS.
In fact, if you wanna know the real truth of it, When ISIS rose out of nowhere in 2014, the ones who defeated ISIS on the ground in Iraq, okay, between 2014 and 2017. Who did the heavy lifting on the ground? Face to face combat was the Iraqi PMUs, was the Hashd al Shaabi and the Quds forces led by Qasem Soleimani. They fought and they defeated ISIS. The United States did stuff in the air that is debatable, how consequential it was.
They did manage to flatten the entire city of Mosul And Iraq, so the United States does have that on its resume. They they are good at, reducing cities to rubble like the Israelis have done in Gaza. So but in terms of actual defeating ISIS, who took the losses, who drew the blood? It was the Iraqis. They fought this, Western backed and Gulf state backed creation.
This monstrosity known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria or Iraq and Levant or Iraq and Sham, whatever, way you wanna pronounce the acronym of ISIS. ISIS comes from Al Qaeda. Al Qaeda comes from again the United States and the British. So let's get our history straight When we're trying to see what's going on today and take the propaganda, wrap it up into a nice neat little ball and throw it into the bin because that's about how useful all of the stuff coming out of the mainstream media conveyor belt of lies is to you in the real world.

ADDENDUM: This week, the warhawks in Washington have treated U.S. media consumers with another episode of “shock and awe” as it launches a series of attacks which it claims are targeting alleged “pro-Iranian groups” located in Syria and Iraq. While this display of military prowess may play well to an American domestic audience, the reality is that the White House has further antagonized multiple sovereign states and non state actors in the region who would like to see an accelerated exit by the US from a beleaguered Middle East. The United States is already on extremely weak footing in both Syria and Iraq, and locals have made it very clear their occupation presence is unwelcome – a key point which most in Washington have chosen to ignore. Far from deterring regional opposition to the occupation activities of the US and Israel, this move by Biden is only going to speed-up that process of pushing the US asset out of their remaining exposed positions…

Israel is described as a racist country founded on the expulsion and massacre of Palestinians. Videos and polls show instances of hate crimes, discrimination, and segregation against Arabs. These views are not only prevalent in society but also represented in government through discriminatory laws. The nation state law grants exclusive rights to Jews, while the Nakba law makes it illegal to acknowledge the expulsions of Palestinians. Racist housing discrimination is legalized through the admissions committee law. Politicians advocating for the genocide of Palestinians hold high positions in government. Israel's recent actions in Gaza are seen as part of a long-standing goal of genocide.

Speaker 0: Israel is one of the most racist countries in the world. While you'll never hear anyone in the mainstream media say this, this is actually one of the most important things you need to understand if you wanna know what's happening right now. From its inception, the whole idea of Israel as a country was based on racism. Israel was conceived as a Jewish state, and while There's nothing wrong in principle with Jews having a homeland. The promise that they insisted that that homeland had to be in Palestine, which already belonged to someone, the Palestinians.
The slogan of Israel's founders was, a land for a people for a people without a land. But deep down, they all knew that the only way to have a Jewish majority in Palestine, an Arab country, was to expel the Arabs. One of the founders of Israel, Joseph Weitz, wrote, there's no room in the country for both peoples. There's no way but to transfer the Arabs from here to neighboring countries. Israel was quite literally founded by expelling and massacring hundreds of thousands of Arabs in a years long process called the And when you found a country based on racial exclusion, you're gonna get a culture that fosters and celebrates racial exclusion.
Because countries that commit terrible rarely acknowledge committing those atrocities. And the presence of Palestinians who remained in Palestine became a constant reminder, not only of the violence that founded Israel, but of the constantly looming threat that they might come back and try to reclaim their land. Every day, you can find videos coming out of Israel showing Israelis calling for all Arabs to die. Insulting the prophet Mohammed. Things.
Desecrating mosques. Spitting on Christians, mocking and celebrating the murder of Palestinians, committing violent hate crimes against Palestinians, watching Gaza get carpet bombed from a cliffside for entertainment. But don't just go off these anecdotes. Let's look at some of the polls. Thing.
One poll found that 2 thirds of Israeli teens believe Arabs to be less intelligent, uncultured, and violent. He'd also found that 50% of Israelis live in the same building as Arabs, wouldn't befriend Arabs, wouldn't let their children befriend Arabs, and wouldn't let Arabs into their homes. Another poll found that 60% of Israeli Jews want segregation from Arabs. Another poll found that half of Israeli Jews agree with the statement, most Jews are better than most non Jews because they were born Jews. The poll also found that 88% of Israeli Jews would be disturbed if their son befriended an Arab girl, and 90% would be disturbed if their daughter befriended an Arab boy.
This poll found that about half of Israeli high schoolers don't think Arabs should have the right to vote. Another poll showed that almost half of Israeli Jews don't want Arabs teaching their kids. Not only are these views widely held in Israeli society. They're also represented in government, which codifies these sentiments into law. For example, Israel has a law that says if an Israeli marries a Palestinian or someone from several other regional Arab states, that person isn't allowed to move in with said Israeli.
This law was passed in 2000 three, but it's been renewed every single year since. Israel also doesn't allow interreligious marriage to be performed in the country, which is meant to deter Jews from marrying non Jews. In 2018, Israel passed the nation state law, a law which has constitutional status, which says thing. The right to exercise national self determination, I e have rights, is the exclusive right of Jews, no one else. There's also the Nakba law, which makes it illegal to acknowledge the Nakba, the expulsions of Palestinians that were needed to found Israel.
This would be like passing a law to make it illegal to to talk about indigenous genocide or slavery in America. There's also the admissions committee law, which basically allows towns to operate panels that deny applications for entry based on sociocultural compatibility, which essentially just legalizes racist housing discrimination. In Israel, advocating genocide of Palestinians that doesn't hurt your chances of holding a high position in government. And in fact, in many cases, it helps. In 2014, Israeli lawmaker Ayelet Shaked wrote an unhinged rant on Facebook, calling all Palestinians enemy combatants and saying their mother should be killed for giving birth to, quote, little snakes.
The next year, she was appointed a minister of justice by Benjamin Netanyahu. It's Omar Ben Gavir, a lifelong admirer of mayor Khan in Arab exterminationist, a man who praised the Jewish settler who killed the Palestinian for throwing a rock at him. A man who was famously acquitted after being criminally charged for chanting death to Arabs is Israel's current minister of national security. He's not some fringe figure either. He's one of the most popular politicians in Israel right now.
Thing. In the last few days, Israel's been working hard to cast itself as the victim. The victim of hatred, the victim of terrorism, the victim of anti Semitism, that they have no choice but to lay siege to Gaza. But underneath this carefully concocted victim complex is a racist, Jewish supremacist state that's been trying to finish the job that the Nakba started for decades. And, really, this shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.
After all, they're literally cutting off water and electricity to a city of 2,000,000 people right now. Thing. Their generals talk openly about flattening Gaza and killing the animals, meaning Palestinians. It's obvious their goal is genocide.

Here, FYI our previous post had typo, according to this, the open letter by Israeli doctors to “STOP” bombing hospitals. Is this correct? https://x.com/adawehgued453/status/1721176789446275266

There is a misconception that the entire nation is responsible for the actions of a few. This rhetoric denies the involvement and awareness of civilians. It is puzzling to see the world's concern for the Palestinian people, while neglecting the atrocities committed by these individuals, who are seen as the worst of this century.
