this is not a war, it is systematic genocide, but whatever they try, palestine will never die. hello, i'm chris williamson and you're watching palestine declassified. we're the only weekly tv show that's dedicated to investigating and exposing the israeli regime's global war against solidarity. with

the illegally occupied people of palestine. in this week's show we'll be shining light on the influence of an ultra sionist sect known as khabad. on his website it claims to be, and i quote, the most dynamic force in jewish life today. it's certainly true that this extremist faction will significant influence over israel's genocidal military and it's leading politicians too, as the tv chakra will explain in this report. in december, in bet han in northern gazza, a jewish religious. outpost was established in a partially destroyed building. this was described as the first khabar house in gaza. khabad is an ultra orthodox jewish sect. it has many adherents in the genocidal occupation forces. many of whom wear khabad patches on their uniforms. here is a zianus tank flying the distinctive khabad flag in ghazza. in addition, there are khabad rabbies attached to the occupation forces. one notes that the genocide is actually about. rooting

out evil here two khabad rabbies erected the jewish religious symbol, the manora in ghazza, but what is khabad? it styles itself as a friendly outgoing movement, dedicated to helping jews reconnect with judaism. in reality, it is a jewish supremacist sect. in the past it was anti-zionist, but back then, even as far back as 1929, its adherence in al-khalil or hebron, as it's called by the zionists. were involved in spying on the palestinians for the hagana terror militia as well as storing weapons for them. khabad is now so ultrazionist that it called in december for ghazza to be recolonized with jewish settlers. worse, israely paper her edits reports its adherents believe as laid out in the tanya. khabad's key religious text states that gentiles have only animal souls, not human souls. in january this year, tania

was printed out by occupation forces in ghazza. this supremacism is carried over into its attitude to the palestinians. followers of the kabad rabbitsakinsberg are known as the hilltop youth. two of his followers wrote the hugely controversial king's tora, which was also recommended by ginsburg. the book states that it is permissible to kill palestinian children, even babies. there is justification for killing babies if it is clear that they will grow up to harm us and in such a situation they may be harmed deliberately and not only during combat with adults. it's not just words. ginsberg's followers in the so-called hilltop youth are said by the zionist intelligence agency shinbet to be responsible for most price tag revenge attacks on palestinians in the west bank. in 1988, benjamin netanyahu famously met with the leader of kabad in new york. the

sect has its global hq. netanyahu has maintained a relationship with khabad ever since. here he is addressing them in 2014. these are the forces supported and aided by the us and the uk unleashed as part of the genocide in gaza. joining me in the studio as usual is our resident expert david miller. david's an academic and a former professor at bristol university and is now a non-resident senior research fellow at the center of islam and global affairs at istanbul zaham university. he's also a co-director of the lobby and watch dog spinwatch and is a leading british scholarly critic of israel. joining us again as our guest contributor today is amar kasmi. armar is an anti-imperialist political activist and a commentator. he previously worked on jeremy corbin's 2016 leadership campaign and was a political advisor in my parliamentary office

from 2017 to 2019. welcome to the show. david, report there showed that hab is deeply embedded in the the genocide being conducted by the zionist. entity, i mean, does that strike you was odd for for a group that that used to be anti-zionist? well, this is an anti-zionist group, which was always really pro zionist, it's a curious thing, so even although it was formally anti-zionist up until really up until 1967, it was only after 1967 they formally made their kind of peace with zionism, but back in 1929 in hebron uh, they actually stored hagana weapons in the in the bank belonging to one of the hamad. followers and they were engaged in spying on the local palestinians and passing the information over to what the nacent uh mossad you pr the creation of the state of israel so they've been uh anti-zionists who have been collaborating with and using zionism in order to further the settlement activities which

they uh approved of yeah well mean this this group calling for the recolonization of gaza i mean appears to be ultrazionist doesn't it well certainly and just run through some of the history there, mean they did formally at one point oppose the creation of the state of israel, but this is a thoroughly ultra zionist sect, mean uh, they believe uh, mean the zionis a fanatical, they believe that the current israeli state, yes has no real authority against them, they oppose any sort of uh peace deals and in the most recent offensive uh on gaza, the genocide has been perpetrated against gaza, they've had the audacity to set up a khabad house in the uh gaza strip uh in december of last year, so this is a thoroughly uh prosyanis organization is deeply uh involved and embedded in not just um supporting it in

terms of words and in terms of ideology but also materially in terms of fundraising and lobbing. well david, i mean obviously you've touched on this already, but i just wonder whether you could um perhaps explain how this group along with you many other asidic groups i mean used to be anti-sianist. well, if you listen to natura karta, which is the militant anti-zionist hasitic group. they say routinely if you listen to the their talks in 1947, the chief rabbi of jerusalem said we should not have a jewish state, and that was the position of almost all the hisic sects at the time. now what's happened since then is that they've made progressively, they made their peace with the cionists in the case of habad for example they have. a written agreement with the the idf that uh that when they join the idf that 25% of the the the guys who join the idf can go off to yoshivas for for year maybe in new york or or someone one of the other worldwide uh offices whereas some of the other uh his groups are still

sufficiently antisinous that they refuse to allow their children when they reach 18 to serve in the idf but never so there's an ongoing process there where the where the idf are trying to encourage them to join and they have throughout the west bank and the illegal settlements they have these uh what what are known as idf yeshivas where they're allowed to go and do tour study and then they also have to go and kill few palestinians on the weekend so is that kind of arrangement and and that's that's how it works and that's that's what's compromised almost all the historic sec now there's only one the satmar which is quite a large one which remains formally anticionist but it's been a process from really in the 1930s to today of of compromising that antiisionism and and bringing the the kind of ultrazionism of the hsitic sects into the service of the zionist entity, how more, the chief are mentioned in the report there about the so-called price tag attacks which are associated with this group, only just say a word about that, will you? well, these price tag attacks are essentially revenge attacks against

palestinians who are involved or perceived to have been involved in acts of resistance against the zionist regime, we often hear in the west that these are the just these extremist settlers acting sort of of their own but actually they act as an extension of the israeli regime as militais for them, they're essentially completely uh unaccountable, they have total impunity, often they're actually aided and abetted by the idf in the west bank, and the israeli intelligence agency shinbet has said that the vast majority of these people involved in these attacks are linked to this extremist faction based in the yitsar settlement in particular, there's actually a khabad linked. uh yashiva jewish seminary in that settlement, so we see that it's really these individuals are involved in it, but of course they're completely supported by uh the israeli regime, and david, what about this king's toura's justification for killing palestinian babies? what's that about? well,

i mean, when you read this for the first time, you sort of, you think, can this be true, but when you look back at it, the their actual main theological tome, the tanya, describes gentiles as being - being having husks for souls and they they're not they have animal souls not fully human and of course you know it's a small step from deciding that that to say well actually in that case you can you can kill children who are not. jewish and in the case of palestinians that the key question is uh, will they grow up to challenge us in the future, of course something which you can't tell about baby, but nevertheless they can tell and they can tell that any palestinian baby is a threat to them in the future and they can be engaged regardless of whether you're trying to kill their parents or not, you can just kill the babies by themselves and this is the depths of the horror of of the the philosophy and the ideas of this sect, and of course we see that enacted every day in gaza today and tomorrow and yesterday and that's what's... going on here, this this is the ideological justification for the direct killing and assassination, sometimes

we've seen through by israeli snipers, direct shots through the head of children, and that this is the ideological justification, yeah, incredible, well ar, mean netan to has been a prominent and very long-term um presence in the zianist power structure, mean just say a little will you though about his connection with the khabad, well you know if you look at netanyahu and his sort of family background, it's quite clear that he has very long term connection with sort of, the revision of scientis movement in general, his father was aid to javatinski, um, after javatinski died, his father continue to work on the revisionist zionist movement, um, you in a hostage recovery raid in the 1970s, netanyahu was injured, his brother jonathan was killed and afterwards. netanyahu set up uh institute called the jonathan um foundation, jonathan

institute which uh helps to research you know so-called terrorism and help to sort of give birth in the mid-1980s to this idea of islamic terrorism right and uh you know so in terms of promoting these sorts of ideas and being associated with zinist extremism and also being associated with habar this is something that nahu has been associated with for many many decades. right, well we'll come back to the discussion in a moment after our second report, which looks at the worldwide distribution of herbad offices, it's links to literal nazis and it's deplorable fundraising activities. in december, it was revealed that a habbad group in the uk was fundraising to support the genocide in gaza. rabai arya sufrin of habad claimed back in october that hamas is worse than isis in full conformity with zinis entity talking points. he also

disclosed that his son is a british recruit to the occupation forces and was in occupied palestine at the time. the habad appeal read vital equipment needed by the idf. funds raise will go direct to equipment needed by aron doff sufrin's reserve unit up in the north of israel and support units. aaron duf sufren is of course the son of the rabbi, serving actively in the genocidal occupation forces. khabad luvovic is an ultra orthodox hasidic sect which also happens to be in genocidal cult. it originates in luabavichi in russia near the border with belarus. it's a global movement with more than 500 offices in over 100 countries and in all 50 states of the us. it even has offices in seemingly unlikely places like china, belarus, tunisia, morocco and venezuela. it has prominent supports. in many places, the new argentinian president is a habbad devote. donald trump

even donated to khabad, though not as much as his son-in-law, jared kushna, who has played a pivotal role in the normalization of the zionis entity. obviously, habbad has been highly organized in ukraine and khabad followers were amongst those recruited in the nazi as of battalion, which we should remember was co-founded by a former member of the israeli occupation forces. palestine declassif. previously reported on how ukrainian jewish oligarch igor kolimovski bancroll habad in ukraine as well as the nazi azof and idob italians. back in the uk there are more than 100 khabad groups or offices. it flies under the radar and is widely regarded as well meaning if a little eccentric. in reality, it is an extremist group which is building support for genocide in the uk. ironically, the community security trust has. he did khabat, giving them security advise after addition of palestine declassified, exposed some of their

activities. the cst has educating about extremism as one of its charitable objectives, but it is unwilling to educate us about the extremism of havad. there's a very good reason for that. geral ronson, which created and runs the cst, is himself an extremist and has been supporting khabad for more than half a century. here he is in 2013. as guest of honor at one of their events uk ambassador's award presented to cbe and damson for the friendship and support over four decades. zinis extremists are widely distributed in the uk and form a mutually supportive network. this is key element of the justification and support for genocide in the uk. suspect lot of people in this country would be absolutely shocked that a british

habad group is is raising funds for designist occupation forces. mean a british add group is doing that. mean, that's incredible, isn't it? well, i mean, people i think would be shocked to find out that this uh organization has, roughly around hundre branches across the entirety of the uk, has a thousand branches in the united states, at least one in every single state, has i think about 5,00 branches worldwide, this is incredibly large organization that wields a significant amount of um power in terms of its lobbing capacities, fund raising capacities uh, and it's really never. about publicly despite the amount of influence that it has and of course it poses as this very innocent well-meaning organization, but then we see that it's raising funds for the israel occupation forces, it's 100% ideologically uh behind the genocide against the people of gaza, as we heard earlier in the program we have

statements saying that it's legitimate to kill palestinian babies, mean i think if people in britain actually understood what this was the sort of depth that it has in britain, they'd be deeply, deeply shocked, well it certainly got some reach hasn't it, david, i mean in hundred countries, but i was pleased to say that i don't believe they've got any base in in cuba, i mean is that right, well i mean it's interesting, the there there are bases in in venezuela in revolutionary venezuela, they have branches in beijing and shanghai and other places in in china, many branches in russia too. as you you uh perhaps wouldn't expect in cuba there isn't an official base there, no, but they do have foot hole, they have a, they have follower there who acts as if there are a habad house in havana, but they haven't formally got an office there, that's because of course the communist party is has not not allowed that, which which is a good thing too, but they have spread over 100 countries,

i mean it's truly extraordinary, that's that's many more countries than have a formal zionist present. by the zionist movement itself, which is around about 35 or 40 countries, but nevertheless this is an ultra zionist group spreading ultra zionist messages all around 100 countries, it's a truly extraordinary reach for an organization and it flies so far under the radar that hardly anyone's even heard of it, well hopefully we hope to shot a bit of light on them, but what you can say uh a word or two about jared kushner and and his role in the normalization process, yes i mean jared kuschner, firstly uh someone who is very close to khabad, he's personally donated thousands of dollars to khabad, and uh, during the trump regime, he was given the sort of informal role to promote normalization in the gulf, we saw him as a very prominent public figure in the so-called abraham accords in 2020, in which uh bahrain

and the united arab emirates formalized publicly the sort of uh diplomatic relationship they'd already been secretly having with israel, but formally normalized with israel, and kushwar was very involved in that, also morocco, and of course as well uh, in terms of lobbying the saudi oligarchy, which was very close to reaching a normalization agreement with israel before the events of the 7th of october last year uh, and you know, after leaving the white house, i believe a hedgefund associated with him, received 2 billion us dollars from the saudi arabian sovereign wealth funds, so this is someone's been deeply involved in that process and is closely linked to khabat, well i mean another sort of extraordinary revelation relating to this organization david um is that um number of them apparently signed up to fight in the nazi azof battalion in ukraine, i mean can that really be true,

well i'm afraid it is true chris, i mean the the the thing that you've got to understand about how about in in ukraine is that... the in in the uk and in the us is an official zionist movement and then there's there's habad and the official zionist movement may mainly runs the organized jewish community in ukraine the organized jewish community is mainly run by habad and that's true actually also in in russia and so what you see is that when kolmski the the uh the oligar the ukrainian oligarch i think we can talk about a bit later when when he is involved in funding something like hababad he's also involved in funding as and and the ar battalions and what you see then is you saw in the film that there are there are photographs from from zionist papers of of bad followers joining up to fight the russians and of course some of these are are joining up with the the as of bitalion, incredible, well it is incredible, mean uh, and i wonder what you make of that, arm, david mentioned there that you involved in

funding the as of battalion and huge habad community in nipro as well, mean this is amazing isn't it? yes, well mean you now ko moyski uh is of course is fantastically rich oligar may. not so more much anymore after being sanctioned and having some of his funds uh taken away from him in london as well, you know, but he's a rich oligark with you cipriot israeli citizenship uh and after the 2014 maidon coup in ukraine he was given control of the nipro oblas which is very strategically important region in in southeastern uh ukraine and he helped to develop and create several armed militias, he helped to support as we just heard. 'um financially, the uh nazi linked or neonazi, you could even say ideologically, as off and adam, ada um uh battalions, yeah, and as well

as that, he's also helped to fund khabad extensively, helped to fund uh a khabad um jewish community center, which is said to be the largest in the world, this is a deeply nefarious uh figure, deeply corrupt individual, he uh is actually wanted by the us justice department, he and his family can't travel there. uh, he was actually put in pre-trial detention in ucraine very recently uh on um charges of money laundering and fraud, so this is someone who's used his wealth uh, got it in the various ways potentially and has used it to help support this movement. another interesting vonder david of course is gerald ronson, isn't it? i mean uh, the guy who runs the these... community security trust which you know is adjacent to uh uh works with with mossad, i mean this is the organization that claims that antisemitism is is skyrocketing, i mean

what do you make of all that? so the very most recent report uh on the skyrocketing nature of antisemitism, you of course counts uh people shouting free palestein is being an indication of antisemitism shows the utter bankrupcy of their research, but we should also be looking much more closely at ronson's uh charitable ventures, which of course have been involved for more than 50 years now in supporting how about this extremist group, the cst says in its charitable objectives that it's supposed to educate the public about extremism, but they won't be doing any educating at all about about, because they don't regard the extremism of her bad as being extremism at all, and that indicates that the deep rot at the heart of the cst, an organization which gets some 15 million a year from the home office, and i think he's also got an extra 3 million top after. october the 7th from our dearly departed uh home secretary salala bravman, so this is a deeply, deeply corrupt organization, engaged in in in promoting effectively

anti-palestinian racism a daily basis, mean you gerald rodson's involvement is is is is really curious to say the least isn't it? mean uh, mean it's uh, mean this is this is the guy who was remember he was uh put in jail for for fraud as part of the guinness fraud scandal and he in in his autobiography he bangs on about radical islam and uh various islamophobic stuff in his book and this is an organization we're supposed to the public is supposed to trust in dealing with antisemitism yes indeed well i'm afraid we are out of time again so let me thank our guest ar kasmi and of course our resident expert professor david miller palestine classified will be about next week with more forensic investigations and analysis and in the meantime please share today's program on your social media platforms to help help us continue growing our audience and countering the disinformation that is carried in the corporate media and remember you can follow the show on facebook, twitter and telegram where we post regular clips and updates, so

until next time, this is chris williamson saying bye for now. this week on expose, the israeli entity assault on rafah was depicted as successful rescue operation, masking its true nature as a direct attack on one of the few remaining safe zones for palestinian civilians in gaza. within zianist israeli media circles, prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been accused of deceat regarding his claims of targeting hamas and freeing all hostages. moreover, a staggering. 97% of arab respondents reported experiencing psychological distress during the gaza conflict, with 92% expressing the belief that the palestinian cause is not

so... a concern for palestinians, but for all arabs. expose, the truth is just a revelation away. a damming report indicates that deaths from terrorism in africa have sky rocketed more than 10000 percent during the so-called us war on terror. this. study by the africa center for strategic studies revealed that during 2002 and 2003 when the us was just beginning its decades long war, total of just nine terrorist attacks were counted throughout all of africa, leading to only 23 casuality, but after two decades of us intervention in africa with a purported aim of helping the continent in counter terrorism. deaths from takfiri, violence in africa increased to 23,322 last year, reaching a record level of lethal violence.

so what exact? are us troops doing in africa if they're not fighting terrorists as they claim? one year watching, i'm your host.

depressed coverage of this assacination of manimani now entering its uh uh fourth day, we're looking at some uh
