tv   SPOTLIGHT RESISTANCE REVENGE  PRESSTV  January 30, 2024 1:02pm-1:31pm IRST

1:02 pm
hello and welcome to pr thanks so much for being with us. well, there seem to be two very important access involved, and what is happening to palestinians in gaza? either one supports the palestinians, or they do not. the two fronts are the axis of resistance, which consists of to resist us hejamani via the zinist regime, and the other front is the access of genocide. now, the access of resistance is made up of iran and its allies, and the access of genocide is made. above the
1:03 pm
united states and its allies, one side fights the genocide against the palestinians and the other side supports the genocide against palestinians. now, this may sound like very simplistic explanation, but it is a reality. stay with me as we take a look at this on this spot. i'd like to welcome my guests to the program. author and west asia expert out of belfast. and eve zingler, author and political activists out of montreal. well, thank you both for being with us. well, sab, let's start off with the palestinian resistance itself. we've seen today that more rockets are still being fired at tel aviv, uh, from algas and brigades in gaza. let's talk about this. how is it possible after zionist forces have been on the ground in?
1:04 pm
gaza for months um that they can't even stop the resistance from firing into occupied areas. the palestinan resistance, despite the ongoing zianist western back genocide on the civilians in gaza, they exposed how hollow and weak this entity, which is the whole as we witness in the 8th of october. 'all the west rushed down to the zionist entity from biden to the italian, the french, the british and romanians, the rest of europe, to show up this collapsing base, advanced military base for the the empire and they ensuring up the this zianist entity with opening all the arsenals of the united states of america and west europe, even diversing some shipments'.
1:05 pm
weaponry and money as well from ukraine to uh to it, this in its own was huge shake and huge insult to all the investment, the west europe and the united states of america is been investing in creating this zionist entity on the expense of killing, i don't want even say hundred of thous millions of arabs in that regions uh but yesterday if you would seen from today the the the resistant in gaza launch from the heart of janunis, a barrage of rockets targeting tel aviv, yesterday the the the resistant published videos showing they are manufacturing their own weapons underground in in hanyunis itself, this is the key for the resistance and i can't say this is uh across all the
1:06 pm
resistant axes from lebanon to palestine to iraq even syria to yemen, they are all share this point which they they manufacture their own high tech but the cheap weapons which they can afford to produce and to target and this in its own is creating kind of tilting the balance of power regionally and this is what she... the united states of america, let me look just a quick point, the yemanies in in their own when they enacted their blockade, this is the first time in history, a small poor state without a navy without that powerful navy behind her to impose and inact a blocade against power which is considered the 13th strongest army in the world, okay stay with me sab bause i'm going to get into. yemen and other parts of the
1:07 pm
resistance as the show progresses, but uh, let's get eves involved in this conversation. now, since the genocides is started by the zionists against palestinians, the leban. resistance group hisbullah has been increasing its number of reciprocal attacks against the israeli regimes. i'd like to hear your thoughts on the role that hezbulah has been playing in opening up new front uh for the israeli regime to put pressure on them uh whether it has been effective or not in your perspective. well i mean obviously it's been effective uh in the sense that if they wouldn't have that would have put made the israeli military. military even more um capacity to kill in gaza, um, they have been able to obviously bomb inside israel multiple occasions, and the israelis are are clearly, huge numbers of israelis have had to move
1:08 pm
from the area, and and the israelis are are clearly trying to get hezballah to move away from the border. uh, it it's, i think quite clearly a - security problem for for israel, um, you know, how how big of impact is having on um on israel's ability to to kill in gaza, you know, it's not clear to me, i mean, obviously israel has his nuclear weapons and could drop them on gaza if they wanted, and they can obviously lob huge numbers of us uh uh bombs uh into gaza. they've been doing uh, the question of israeli soldiers, i think is a bigger problem, because the the cost of taking people out of of the economy and having reserves called up, and and the more number of troops they have to have devoted
1:09 pm
towards hezbulah, takes away from what they can have directed at at the palestinians in gaza, um, so it's clearly had an impact, i, i, i'm not a... a position to assess like how substantive that has been on israeli military capacities. okay, what about that? sab, your your perspective on the effect that hazbullah has had, if any, and your thoughts on the type of weapons and hizbullah has gradually started introducing different kinds of weapons as the conflict uh progress progresses. one of the things which is noticed and i was proud of how the... "hizballah modified the anti tank kind of missiles like the cornet missiles to be used against kind of not tanks and not armed personals but against bases military bases
1:10 pm
and things which is this is how they develop that and make it advanced this is is amazing and then the second thing which we saw couple of days ago the tv guided" missiles precisely going to its own target and and can be adjust its targets by the launcher as well, this is an advance and and huge message to the zinis entity to to understand the hizballah is producing types of of technologies which they didn't know about and with their precise missiles even the zin entity yesterday. they were saying hizballah is capable of launching 100 missiles an hour at them if they if it's gone some of the zinus entity journals this is like nightmare scenario for the zinus entity so the technologies which is indigenous technologies this is important
1:11 pm
point in here it is indigenous technologies among the the resistance axes and so they can dig underground deep and they produce these things and can fight a long, long battles, they don't want to wait for shipment routes and stuff, they have the technology and they have the know how and producing it. okay, well evs a drone attack on sunday hit american soldiers, killing three of them and winding at least 25 of them uh, this was - well reports say on the border between jordan and syria, others say it was at the an american base in syria, but in general how significant? are such attacks in putting pressure on the americans for supporting the israeli genocide in gaza? i think they they're significant. there is no doubt that the us is is uh feeling pressure and there's been a reports are saying something in the range of 150 to 200 attacks within iraq
1:12 pm
against us military targets, clearly it's a big media item in the us. it's causing uh... "i think some reverberations within us uh politics in terms of uh anti-war voices saying, let's not get sucked into a a bigger war on behalf of..." the us or behalf of the israeli genocide um so so you know you would like to believe that there's a there's democratic mechanisms within us politics or the us would listen to you rulings of the international court of justice or things like that, but the reality is is that resistances, military resistance is what um the the uh the masters in washington are are you know respond to and so i think that this is definitely uh uh putting some pressure on the us. now you know does the us empire respond
1:13 pm
by uh escalating things? i think that's uh certainly a possible and maybe probable uh uh situation uh response um but uh but clearly uh you know just sort of standing aside and saying hey go ahead and kill as many people as you want uh in gaza with the with us provided and and uh don't... made weapons, that's uh clearly not a not a strategy. well, islamic resistance of iraq has launched over 150 attacks on american interests in iraq and syria. your thoughts about the effectiveness of what they're doing? not just in iraq and in syria, the iraki resistance were amazing, even the directed massive, they they got a massive. impact on the two major ports, h ports and the zinity, they used on it kind of
1:14 pm
cruise missiles and the infa alone, they they said this is a strategic area which is it and this entity did its best to hide done, the the iraki resistant acting with armed with kind of legislation from the iraqi parliament which is considered the ame presence in iraq is occupation and they ask the americans to leave as long as the americans is there there are occupation forces so they directing a blow at the after a blow at the incubation forces and as well the american presence in in syria is an occupation which the syrian government even lately the americans looting that they gonna try to come to an agreement between the syrian government and kasad which is kurdish movement supported by the united states of america, the the syrian government
1:15 pm
dismiss that they are not going to entertain any ideas or lies from the american occupation and the iraqi when they directed blows at them in syria because they know this is oil of syria which is looted from the northeast of syria and the kurdish militant try with takfiri groups selen it it comes through uh karkok in. and goes to the zinis entity as well, this is stool oil, and the same thing, the americans are looting nearly one billion dollar a year from the iraqi oil, and they have just like kind of killing point on the american the finance system in iraq, the stagnating the iraki economy by controlling its liquidity of dollars or that in the american banks and this is the point which they try to use to brusherize the iraqi government, but lately the direct the blows,
1:16 pm
the iraki resistance direct at them, it's make them on the run, they want to leave iraq, they losing lot lately in the personals on shifting their forces from base to base, so the americans paying heavy price in iraq and in syria right now, well looking at what s has just talked about, is of course the iraq. resistance and dealing with ports in the mediterranean and we also have ports uh basically in the red sea regime ports on the red sea that have been uh being attacked by the yemeni forces. let's talk about the yeemeni side of things and how effective their blockad in the red sea and boba mandep has been. well it's put lot of pressure uh on on the us. it's obviously generated significant concern among. business circles around north america, europe, it's cost, the
1:17 pm
shipping costs have gone up, um, it hasn't stopped israel from doing what it's doing, but all the arab countries that have normalized with israel have have done basically nothing, what the his have done is... is a is a significant act of of uh of solidarity um so yeah it's put it's put pressure uh but but it it you know it obviously hasn't succeeded in in what what the aim is, which is to just stop this horror that uh that israel's uh uh committing. well stop the yemini armed forces launched a missile on sunday targeting american navy ship. uh, your thoughts on yemen's targeting this ship and other foreign ships and also trying to put pressure on the regime and to stop the genocide and the effectiveness in general of the yeamenis and they continue to
1:18 pm
say no matter what happens to them uh they will support their brother. in gaza, what the yemen military forces doing is something in new, even in new as we never heard of poor country have the ability to do navy, de facto navy blocade, as i said against some of the strongest militaries in the world, from the zinus entity to the united states of america, to the british, to the all the anglo-saxon gang. the brit the the americans brought to them and to their dismay those people, the united states of america fought against yemen for eight years using the proxy, saudis and the emiratis and were defeated and they the one who ask for seas fire with yemen, after they seen the impact this yemen is done on
1:19 pm
the industries in saudi arabia or or on the gulf region, so the united states of america didn't learn, the lasum today the the yemen is using high tech as i said but cheaply produced in yemen technologies military technologies they are targeting the american navy ships the targeting the zionist ships they targeting the british whs and the last one was a british ship carrying crude oil to designist entity and all of that so yemen is showing its muscles in the area and the united states of america, which supposed to be the superpower of the world, cannot face yemen, practically, they they target yemen, yemen is losing some civilians and losing some infrastructure, of course, but this is power tilting exercise yemen shown, and yemen
1:20 pm
is showed it's they have a formidable fighting, well and locally produced technology which... can target them, this is have gonna have huge impact since couple of days ago the qatari they they declared they are not gonna send their their gas, liquid form of natural gas through the red sea, that means it's europe won't have that liquid gas, which is they don't have it as well europe or from the russians, so they got have to wait till get the americans supply more from their... natural gas to europe, that will increase the prices, that will add to the inflation, apart as well, the the root which is the ships taken now around africa going to europe is adding two weeks more or or even sometimes three weeks to the journey of the ships and adding huge cost of increased double or triple in the insurance services,
1:21 pm
so this is the european find themselves again like they failed for the ukraine war and... infected the the their own economies in europe and this as well gamble which they followed the united states in america in it showed they're gonna pay heavy price for it this genocidal camp doesn't care it seems and they don't care their own population will suffer or not this is what the people in europe are aware of i had the chance in the streets of ireland and the uk and of course gna be in the united states of america they "the demonstration was shouting for yeman to turn another ship around, people are lifting the flags of yemen all over the streets of europe, because yemen showed, it is a country who stand by humanity, a country stand against genocide, against these hypocrate criminal genocidal powers in europe or the usa. well, if in the meantime we have us led
1:22 pm
access increasing its support for the genocide, they've sent more weapon." even troops to support the zinanis regime, and in the meantime, the us lead front has not demanded a ceasefire and standing in front of it and not allowing it, and has allowed palestinian blood to continue to be spilled. your thoughts on this, i mean, does the united states and its front in your perspective, have any kind of um political credibility or any type of credibility left or your assessment of this? well, there clearly uh they are participating in genocide and the uh agregous response to the international court of justice. calling for uh israel to basically curtail its genocidal policies, the reaction of my government here
1:23 pm
in canada, they didn't even restate the perfunctory statement that that's legal, is legally bound by the ruling, they responded by suspending aid to palestinian refugees, they responded by by deepening the starvation that palestinians are facing in gaza, i mean this is just absolutely outrageous, cynical uh, mean spirited, i mean, and so they have, they have, they're dripping, their hands are dripping in blood, i mean there, there's other way to to to consider, all right, well sab, the us is pointing the finger at iran for all the attacks by the resistance in the region. iran says resistant groups make their own decisions, some american officials are calling for an all-out attack against iran. your thoughts. you see, the war in gaza
1:24 pm
itself showed globally the impact of this american bring back genicidal war in gaza. and we witnessed today the the world order is start to shift from unilateral to multi. and when i mean by unilateral to not even like before the soviet union and of america, no, today you're going to see china, russia, iran, united states of america, maybe another power as well, so iran in its own as a power in the region, it's not even becoming a regional power now, it's a global player iran, and the united states of america is gonna try to resort to blame iran for the failures and... for its involvement in supporting genocide, its own people criticized criticized united states of america before the iranian people before the people even in the middle east, people seeing
1:25 pm
this criminal ruling elite in the united states of america, what's doing, and whenever they try to target to involve, they cannot wait a war in iran since they are a lot weaker than even to be to be able to handle the yemanies, let alone the iranians. uh and it's not able to handle the iraqi resistance or even the part of the iraki resistance and the syrian resistance so what what the united states of america is doing they are a lot weaker than before so what we witnessing today is a global change and that's triggered from gaza people seeing what's the people in palestine suffering from and it's become very clear what size you standing on you want to... with the criminal genocidal forces like the united states of america or with the decent people who defending the humanity like the iranian, the yemenis, the syrians, the
1:26 pm
iraqies, that kind of people, and we can see in the globe from south africa uh even to ireland, there is lot of forces who's gathered together to support the palestinians, let the ruling elite aside, those people are controlled by multinationals who always make the money out of... the suffering of the people of the world, this is und that note, so sorry to interrupt you, on that note, we're out of time, appreciate both of you being it with us, chat author and west asia expert out of belfast, evenler, author and political activist out of montreal, thank you viewers for being with us on another spotlight, and maria hashimy, signing out for myself and other group right here in tehran, hope to see you right here next time, all of those things were were present, i was
1:27 pm
