2:03 am
markava tanks with precision guided missiles, i'm your host b let's see who joining us in this episode political analyst in london also in london we'll have john journalist and international relations expert welcome to the show both gentlemen in london now beginning with the shabir the yemeny reaction. today israel us genocide in gaza came following multiple warnings which fell on deaf ears of apparently and the arm forces in yemen insis that they will go on with such operations until israel stops committing crime against the palestinians and allows human eight to go in uh your thoughts on this. hello thanks for the invitation firstly condolences for all the families of the marters who have been martered in the last six the plus days in
2:04 am
gaza, the west bank and lebanon, and our supplication for those that have been injured and for their families to have patience for the imminent victory. look, you talked about falling on deaf ears, what has become abundantly clear is that it's not just deaf ears, but it's actually hubris on steroids, as i would like to call it, because today we are supposedly marking. 75th anniversary on 10th of december for the human rights day, however, today must not a day of celebration, but a day of remorse, this was exposed as a lie when the us aga the resolution at the united nations for a permanent cease fire in gaza against an ongoing genocide in real time, in front of us, in our hands, on our of mobiles, we can see clearly that, murder is
2:05 am
taking place without any sort of stopping to it, so really what the resistance is doing multiple fronts, as you pointed out in your opening comments, particularly the yemeny sort of resistance has acted remarkably, remarkably, what we got to remember is that a war of eight years was inflicted on yemen and of united nation at that time had described that of this is the biggest human tragedy, tragedy which was inflicted on the yemeni people, however they have strong, they have been sort of supporting what's happening in gaza, what you got to remember also is that in those eight years the his and the yemanies did not sort of you know stoping the the the cargos and the ships going through the barban medip, what they have done now is really in support of of the gazans and as we said because the
2:06 am
zionist entity has stopped all kinds of sort of basic necessities to go through to gaza, so what the hutis and the yemenis are doing is saying that look, this is what we intend of to do, and that's what they have done, what it also sort of clearly creates a big problem for israeli ships and also any other ship shipping line that wants to take goods to israel, they have to go all the way, to you know madagascar, south africa and that will increase the cost and also delay, so that will have an impact on the zionist entity when they're importing products and you've got to remember that balble mendeb significant amount of gas and petroleum products also pass through when they come out of persian gulf through straight of homos and then to babel mendeb and swiss canal, so that is also going to have an impact, so i think overall the strategy. that is being adopted
2:07 am
by the his and the yemenis is that really they want to sort of really tell the zionist entity that the people in gaza. "the the resistances, the palestinians in the west bank, they are not alone, they have friend, just like designist entity has friends in washington, in london, paris, and the collective west. okay, now john, iran has announced repeatedly that resistance fighters make their decisions on the basis of their own exigencies and interests and act accordingly, yet the west blaming tehran for involvement in the yemeny and israel operations, what's the use and purpose of? such pling as a start let me salute our brothers in yeman for their strong support for the pastinians and salute our brothers in tehran for the support of the resistance and the middle east iraq and libanon and palestine let me start just this is a game
2:08 am
which is not a new game it's a old new game where the west always had to point finger somewhere ours now with all this coation of the western uh countries, especially british and french and americans, the sing actually missionaries who actually killing palestin in gaza, this is actually okay, yet by the showing support by iran to the yemen resistance, iran being accused of supporting the residents in iran, yemen, which is just make to that from day one of the the islam revolution, the first act, done by is closure the zin embassy in tehran and obviously converted to the palestinian embassy with the brazilian ambassador, so iran is not shy of supporting the resistance, iran is not shy to support the palestinan resistance in palestine, so i don't understand what the use
2:09 am
of actually the, i don't want to call him resistance, i want to divert from the use of the languages and yemanies, there is no hes and yemen, there is... resistance who actually take a good initiative to stop the supply of arms to the zin entity through the sea and that's really appreciated so i don't understand what's the point of actually sing something which car agreed and admitted by the iranian government shabir how effectively do you think uh such yemeny operations like uh seasing vessels that have dealings with the israel regime, all the vessels now hing for israel, no matter what the national is, how effectively could this impact the israely economy that's already in bad situation? firstly, i want to thank our the panelist, the federal panelist for clarifying that it's
2:10 am
not just, it's the yeminis, it's absolutely correct, the yeminis overall which are part the resistance axis if you like, so what look... "you know, it may appear that yemenis are not actually being very sort of effective, but the reality is that, as i said in my opening comments, it is having an impact on trade cost, on insurance and delays in the products arriving whether in europe or particularly to the zianist entity in ha or any other port uh that the the ship will go, so delay at least by a week." that has impact overall already the zionist entity is losing billions of dollars because the economy has come to a virtual halt, many companies have closed down in the zionist entity, nearly 100 thous people have moved from the northern
2:11 am
part of the zionist entity to ilat and other places and of course all the sort of settlers who were based in and around gaza, they have also moved. so the security aspect and secondly the reports are that nearly hal millionis have left the zionist entity to wherever they came from, you know, many of them have used passports, so that is having impact, so i think the sort of strategy that the yemenis are following is having an impact, that's the reason why the usa is sort of sending their frigts there trying to... to bring down the drones and so on, if the activities and the actions of the yemenis was not having impact, then of course the usa would not take any course of action. secondly, it is trying to bring saudis and the uae back in in the equation to start
2:12 am
bombing yemen. obviously yemenis have worn that if that course of action takes place then the borders of these two countries are much. to yemen than sort of israel, so that will have an impact itself, which they did show in the past few years that they're capable of launching rockets on the on saudi arabia, okay, john, elsewhere in the region, in iraq, for instance, resistance fighters have also conduct more than 70 drone attacks on us bases both inside iraq and syria, and that of course has angeled the officials of the white house, now what do such reactions from iraq signif? well, just just make it clear that this is not an operation which started the the genocide in gaza, the resistance for the last since the uh full of the saddam regime and the american occupation iraq, the irak has been actually active
2:13 am
daily, but as you know the western media will not actually publish anything to do with the resistance, try to give the impression that the iraki government and the american ocupation is in the same page, there is daily in iraq in syria despite of the civil in syria by the americans and to to try to overthrow assad, which is weaken trying to weak the resistance, and they thought with the feeling of the shahitmani that the resistance would die, that's the theassinate shahitmani, because the with the support of slelemani the resistance would die in iraq, despite of that the resistance actually flourish and there is more attacks on on the american z. avation as you know they are hiding on the green zone, they actually
2:14 am
cannot travel easy and obviously safely in the country because of the resistance actually it's a daily opinion against the iraki so this make a different that new front will be over to as said we keeping third of the army in our border fighting so we can actually easy brush on how it was in in in in gaza, i think the whole region should be open to the resistance to eliminate this cancer in the middle east so callalled israel, without that obviously we sit here and watch the slaughter of the palestin daily, so no surprise that the our brothers in iraq, syria, yemen, i mean we salute yemen is because eight years of starvation and killing yet germany is supporting despite of the. the the massacres by the saudi and the galv who
2:15 am
was actually in the camp of the and the usa, despite of that is still and still fighting with the support of the palestine. shabir, we have reactions from the yemenis, from irakis now in lebanon also has been doing their their sharesal attacks using their... advance weaponry to israel military basis and equipment inside the ocupaid lines and said that almost one third of the israel military is engaging has lot resistance fighters and thus this weakens this resources and it brutal war on the gaza strip your take on performance well of course the resistance in lebanon has really given thesignist entity a bloody nose in 2006. because that was the year when it is very clear that the zianist entity lost very badly and they had to vacate
2:16 am
the south which was rated first time in the sort of west asian history that no arab nation was able to recapture the territories that were occupied by the zionist entity. what has been happening is that the leaders, the military elite in the zionist entity keeps on sort of using the language that they will use the dia doctrine that is really sort of destroy as many buildings and sort of murder as civilians as possible that they did in 2006, but nonetheless the resistance in lebanon was victorious, so this is the beginning of this special operation as i would like to call by the uh the resistance in gaza became effective really has said that
2:17 am
they have been involved from day one instead of resisting and engaging the zianist entity, because it is very clear that a significant potion, you one third or whatever the numbers are of the military are engaged in the northern theater if you like, northern galilee northern part of design entity south of lebanon, so in that way the resources and the personnel that are engaged is having an impact on what action the science entity want to take in gaza. true, not john, the united states says again used. v power and another push at the un security council for seasfirings and i ask you on what ground washington move against the will of the around the world and overtly support the genocide palestinians in gaza? well just this war is not an israelian war, this is an israeli american one side against though lot
2:18 am
the media try to betray the war as hamas is watching the some of the even media referring to the war in gaza, it is not a war, a war between two armies, this is genocide with the support usa and the corruptment of uk to kill as much as the can because the palestines and send them to the as they never never work, so we america have a history of any resolution regard to israel from the 1960 well 1967 there is 168 resolution from united nations regard to the regime as beated by america and because israel is in that part of the region the are the state the servant of the interest and military interest in the region just all
2:19 am
reason they actually uh the resolution as the what to the 168. resolution in the past, this is the history of the american of the open support of the not only vetos, well 3.8 billion a year to the entity to be settlement and to ras and kill palestinian, shabir given given what john said, all kinds of support that russian has land regime, fullf support for and also direct involvement. actually in this israel of palestinians, so doesn't the us deserve to see its military basis and west asia targeted by resistance fires? absolutely, because as as you our other commentator said that america, the us and our government here in uk is supporting this
2:20 am
particular entity, and it was britain here way back over 100 years ago, 1970 under the b. correration that the zionist entity sort of idea was floated and then of course a piece of land was given was under the british mandate to the sign to come and occupy it from all over the world, so so really britain has a sort of ugly history in supporting and creating this particular entity, but of course britain is no longer an imperial power and it has become laptop of the us, therefore as a poodle it... has to follow whatever washington dictat is, so in reality the resistance, wherever they are in west asia, they know very clearly that behind what's happening in palestine, you gaza, the west bank and and and and other parts of the zianist entity really is the complete support
2:21 am
the united states and washington and london plus the european union, because at the end the day the... hypocrisy, the double standards whereby they talk about human rights and all kinds of wonderful words that are used, but they are not applicable as far as the palestinians are concerned, and it's not only palestinians, the language that is being used by the design entities leaders, the mayor of deputy mayor of jerusalem, only couple of days ago talked about anniholation the people in gaza, you know, mr. talks about amaleks, mr. gallen talks about human animals and all kinds of angry, so so the reality is that is not just the palestinians who are being dehumanized, but really is the language the colonial and imperial powers of the past when they used to designate the inous population of countries that they were occupying as humans, so the language is being
2:22 am
used at this moment against the palestinians, but it really means... 'you all the arabs, all the non-whites, that's why you see that the alliance of the multipolar world of the south is understand with that, it's not applicable to the palestinian, but it's applicable to all people of the world who are non-ight if you like, that's all the time we have for this episode, let me thank my guest london, shabir rusby, political analyst and john phoenix journalist and international relations expert, and thank you for watching this edition of the spot lights up in your host'.
