hello and welcome to press tv spotlight, i'm marsia hashimi, thanks so much for being with us. now the us israeli holocaust on palestinians in gaza has reached his 164th day. the regime continues to up the anti in trying to see how much more misery it can cause the palestinians, besides the sniping and bombing of people and structures, starvation. is another weapon of choice by

the scientists that is increasingly claiming more victims. newborns are the first to succum to starvation and in other infants and kids. the world is watching the systematic genocide of gazans, as more political leaders give some verbal condemnation, but take no action. this while palestinian kids ask why is it a crime to be palestinian in this world? but i'd like to welcome... my guess to this program: i'm aldan, human rights activist out of ramala and ali salam, editor in chief busier press out of tehran. well, thank you both for being with me. i'm going to start this off in ramala and aman, the regime can kill tens of thousands of people in. real time, it can destroy all

infrastructure, it can prevent food and supplies from entering gaza and starve the population to death. now the regime can kill patients in hospitals and destroy those structures. are there any red lines for the regime on what it cannot do against palestinians? um, um, actually, it's not only this regime that is waving this war against the palestinians. 'if it was only this regime, that would be a different story, but this regime is backed up by the us regardless of the us rhetoric about you know human um devastations and crisis and all of you know public statements that biden comes out with or his spokesperson and if this regime wasn't back by us in particular and the rest of the

western world, it wouldn't last, because we've seen the this is the we're entering the six months and the regime is turn apart when we are talking about military performance, security, economics, all of this actually is affecting the israelis and we daily read reports by strategics. israeli strategis about um the endless war, about no strategy war, so all that means that this regime is not carrying this for um by itself, the us is complicit in it, and the rest of the western in world, unfortunately the arab and islamic world has done um almost zero in terms of

this crisis, if we put aside um the access of resistance of course and some of the islamic countries, but the majority of the arab countries, especially the gulf countries, and of the rest of the islamic world hasn't budge much to come forward to put an end to this crisis. i think it is actually... tied up with more um let's say geopolitic strategy run by the us. okay, i will get back to you on that interesting point that you're making. well, i, when we look at the the situation that is happening as we just heard almost six months in the making now. is there any way possible this type of carnage would have been allowed? take place against europeans?

absolutely not, as we can see the world reaction to something uh like the russian special military operation in ukraine. which came as a result of 80 years of shelling constantly on almost daily basis of the various cities and regions in the donbass area, ingansk and donetsk, and the moment russia decides to defend these people who are majority ethnic and ethnic speaking russians, they come in and look what happened, they became the most sanctioned country in the world, even to the point of surpassing iran in number of sanctions, the media vilified them and then to the point of even erasing russian culture like dostoyevski or chaykovski or all these other significant figures in russian culture and arts um none of this has been done to the zionist regime to the uh well there is not really an

existent israeli culture hummus is not israeli these types of things are not israeli so there's not they don't really have so much of a culture that we can blockade from the minds of the people but exposing the truth about is dionism and its global network in various different spheres of the world, gets you banned off of twitter, gets you banned off of facebook, gets you banned off of meta, um, sorry, those are the same thing, um, so and and the mainstream media is, you know, not talking about this, it it just goes to show who is in control of the major sensors of power in the world, and it's these who are having the blood of all these people directly on their hands, these are the criminals, and but because they control... the media, they can flip the script and they can ignore their own crimes and be able to cover up their own crimes, as kind of um sort of pair in the as a hand in hand with the military crimes is the media to help cover up their complicity. okay, well i'm man, who's responsible to

prevent starvation from being used as a weapon of war? we seem to have quite a delimbum because on the one hand uh you alluded to the western hijamanic front actually, being responsible for this in general, and then on the other hand, that same western hegemonic front um is the front that is actually supposed to be uh controlling or or helping enforce international law, so answer that question, i mean who's supposed to be responsible for this, who's supposed to be preventing this from happening, actually in the uh current um um world that we are living. and the un should be should be the first or international organization to put an end to this, but who's controlling the un? as we have seen as we have witnessed through the three past decades all these wars that the middle east was subjected to by the usa and

the western its western allies um the un did not do any... thing and as for the palestinians in gaza, and the un and onua should be responsible in um, you know, work and relief agency, the honor is for the work and relief for the palestinians, but it cannot do its work, actually it has been prevented from doing its work, its employees have been targeted, we lost a number dozens of employees of... inerwa and at the end the israelis were pointing fingers and at criminalizes to criminalize some of the employees of the honor, so the international organizations cannot do much for us, and the western world, you have seen the double

standard when it comes to ukraine, they acted a different way, but when it comes to the palestinians, when when it comes to the israeli regime, they act in a different way, from one hand and they want also to protect their military base here, their stronghold in in in this area, and from the other hand, there is, as i was trying to say, there is a strategy behind all this, and we've seen what happened during the 12 years of what they called the arab spring in different parts of the middle east, different arab countries, and all of that... was um because of the gas, they wanted to establish around a route for natural gas parallel to that of north stream one and north stream two, and now i think it's the same thing happening again, remember

that they have started this route from united arab emirates through the saudi arabia, jordan to help the israelis, because the israelis has been suffering, they don't have any... exports, they don't have any, the settlements are not providing products for the israeli economy, so the economy is paralyzed at the moment, but hey where united arab? emirates jumped in there and opened a route to help the israelis, but this route now is planned to get a parallel route to the gas, the russian gaz, the north stream one and north stream two and to encounter the the belt and the road initiative that chinese belt and the road which achieved a lot during the best 15 years, so ' "we are encountering now another hijamanic attack by the us to see

the natural gas of the shores of gaza, the itimar field, gas field, which is controlled by the israel belongs to the gas belongs to the palestinians, now they want around come comes from india through united arab emirates, saudi arabia up to the mediterranean, okay now..." "this brings the global, you know, the global powers into a new confrontation. i think president putin mentioned that we are about to enter world war th, if the western world continues to provide ukraine with weapons, now he's gonna, mean, maybe they come short of explaining the other threat for world war ii, which is ' the current american hijam, they are trying to build a floating pier on the coastline of

gaza shores, that means the americans are trying to occupy directly, okay, i'm not saying directly, they are trying to occupy gaza and at the same time protecting the israeli regime from, well okay, let me get ali back in this, ali, you heard what amal is say saying, one, talking about the western hejamonic front also then talking about uh various muslim countries or arab countries uh working along it appears with these uh western hegemonic um entities your take on that and if it's so why is that the case what are these airb regimes trying to get when they're air brethren their muslim brothers are being slaughtered um in front of their eyes? "these regimes are only outwardly muslim, but every human being is designed to

worship. worship what, that's up to the human being. these people, they worship money, they worship wealth and material, the you see the way they live and they live all these lavish lifestyles. honestly, it puts their economies as house of cards, especially during the coronavirus when there was a simultaneous oil price war that drove the prices of oil uh down, their economies took a big hit because they're they live in. fantasy world and they think that all importing material goods, ferraris and everything like that, they they're only interested in money and power, they they don't care about other muslims because the muslim is just a name for them, they don't care about their other arab brethen um because to them they think that they're above the rest of humanity and there's a doubt if they about the nature of their ethnicity among some academic circles, but it's the they're not. going to care because they're only interested in maintaining uh their power, and that's why

some may have pivoted towards iran for example, because they feel that the us will get rid of them if they get a little bit too ahead of themselves, like as what the us did to saddam for example, and they have been actually trying to do to muhammad bin salman because they see him as too ambitious and that's his stunts can uh potentially destabilize the saudi regime. "and they would replace them with somebody that's potentially more of a stabilizer than him, but they're all complicit in normalizing with the zionist regime, and they don't care about the palestinians at all, so this is just a part the game that they're playing, and they're going to essentially coronate it through an establishment of another puppet regime in palestine, and all the maneuvers that we've been seeing with the palestinian authority, with president biden and senator." shomer saying that netanyahu needs to go, and and many statements against the resistance by

some comprador classes within the palestinian political blocks, they're all essentially preparing to create a comprador regime to govern over all of palestine, including gaza, to basically snuff out the resistance and get rid of the last remaining form of independent government that exists among the palestinians, which is the hamas government, okay, and replaced it with something similar to the zianist controlled palestinian. authority and the gulf states will be the rubber stamp for this because they'll promise all the money and the aid and the reconstruction as long as palestinians are humil humiliated just like they are humiliated and follow the same. uh agenda of being uh essentially second-class puppets of the zionists and the americans. well, am al-shifah hospital, the largest medical facility in gaza, was hit again by the israeli regime on sunday. uh, it's the fourth time the facility has been targeted, there are thousands of people taking shelter in the hospital complex. now, more palestinians of course were killed yesterday and wounded who

were taking refuge inside of the complex. your thoughts on why the... israeli regime, the us-backed israeli regime continues to attack and destroy hospitals and kidnap hospital staff. i mean, what is their goal specifically in dealing with medical facilities in the way they are? you know, when they are committing mass genocide against the palestinians, targeting, you know, air strikes, bombardment from the the the sea and land tanks, they... they are using every method of lethal weapon to exterminate the palestinians and the hospitals for them were targeted from you know the first week of the ground invasion, they want they don't want to leave any

facility, any health facility that can provides health. services that can you know rescue the wanded from being from dying, so the the facility, the hospitals and the health facilities for them is another target, another lethal weapon that they can use to exterminate the palestinians, i mean all what we are seeing on tv screens, it's you know it's a show of - a continuous deliberate killing, i can't describe it in in more specific words, except they have surpassed the nazis during world war ii, and when we see the children and the woman, the helpless children and women under the rebel and you

know the the even the cemetiries, they were excavating the... semetaries, i mean all kinds, all sorts of crimes, especially the the hospitals, as we've been seeing saying, so these institutions, whether it's the health, whether it's the education, whether it's you know the the churches, the mosks, the the buildings, 80% of gaza has been demolished, has been destructed. under the eyes of the whole world, and i have to say, if we don't have the access of resistance, it would be really hard for the palestinian resistance to continue this fight, and thanks god that we have the resistance in south lebanon, in yemen, in iraq, in syria and of

course the islamic republic of iran other than that i'm afraid that even russia and china are only playing a diplomatic role rather than play you know exerting more pressure on the us. okay, i mean i'm sure that they have other you know weak point that they can pressure the the us at least to easen at least to accept a sease fire. the americans do not accept. long term sease fire, they only asking for short-term sease fire, so from this you can, you know, come to a conclusion that the us really wants gaza to be unl unlivable place, and the israelis already have put plans to reoccupied gaza, in

to add to is the floating pier on the... coast line, that's what they are trying to do to occupy gaza, but i don't think they will succeed, because the israelis are facing internal problem that prevent them from reaching the victory that they are seeking to. well, i eu foreign policy chief joseph says israel's genocide in gaza has now turned the territory into the world's biggest open air graveyard, whereas before it was... is the world's biggest open air prison. your thoughts on his comments, because at representing the eu, one would think that uh, if he felt like that before, um, that perhaps he should have done something. when it was the world's uh biggest open air prison, but we didn't see any action coming from the eu. your your thoughts, we didn't see any action

then and we're not going to see any action now. these statements are empty and they're a insult to the ocean of blood that has been spilled. um, which has been assisted by eu member states, in fact most of them are assisting in this genocide in one way or another, italy, both the killer and the victim, so we should also look at their statements about the resistance, and as i mentioned before, this the slanderis statements against the

resistance by certain comprador factions among palestinian political blocks are essentially blaming the resistance for the genocide of gaza, as if israel hasn't been doing these types of measures beforehand and wouldn't have done these types of things maybe over a longer period of time, but would have done them anyways, their their goal was to have. actually get gets rid of gaza entirely and they would have done it without any pretext and they they had attacked gaza long before hamas uh even existed in the in 2005 or established the government in 2006 all right let me let me get a mind back in on this buse i want to look at the geopolitical significance of all this that uh you had alluded to earlier let's talk about what we're seeing in gaza and the moves by which entities which parties and what does it mean in your perspective from geopolitical level? "sorry, i didn't get that. i want the geopolitical significance, you had alluded to earlier about what is happening in gaza, your

take on that please. right, but before this, seven october, i think it was a preemptive action by the resistance, by the palestinian resistance and by alqassan brigades in particular, because the israelis were planning this, and if you..." remember and netanyahu in his way of you know being a comedian, he was showing map in his speech in front of the you and general assembly and he was showing map with an alternative route starts from india across united arab emirates and hey united arab emirates in all um you know conspiracies here in its presence is unprecedented by any other country as if it

was planned to to play this role, so it come, it starts from india to united arab emirates, saudi arabia, jordan, and then through, it was meant to be the israeli port, but now it's coming from gaza to... congress to europe and this a plan was meant to encounter and the north stream one and north stream two the russian gas and the that's why i think president putin has warned against abossible of eruption world war 3 um based on what's happening on ukraine and now to add to it what's going on in gaza and the the scale of um the attack of the aggression is also unprecedented, it's as it's like world war 3

that we are living in in in gaza area in at 365 square kilometers and with 2.3 million people being squeezed in, sieged, blockaded for 17 years. and now exterminated, so this whole thing makes a sense that the you know geopolitical strategy for the us, and on that so sorry to interrupt your mind, but we are out of time, i appreciate both of you being with me,ahdan, human rights activist out of ramal ali salam, editor and chief basir press out of tehran, and thank you viewers for being with us on another spotlight, i'm marza hashimy signing up, signing out for myself and other group right here in term. see you next time.

information about palestine abounds on social networks, many times without context. they do not allow us to go deeper and understand all the dimensions of a catastrophe that is dragging on for centuries. daniel hardwey, chilean mayor of palestinian origin, opens a window to palestine to understand in depth the present cause of the palestinian people, exploring its history and future prospects. do not miss a window to palestine.

in this episode of irantic we're taking a look a system that allows us to more closely examine ancient findings and uh let us know about the material of... they're made from without damaging it, the time period that they were from and the location that they originated from and not necessarily found in, and that is all possible thanks to kind of portal accelerator known as the vandday graph. stay tuned, don't miss it!

iran strongly condemns israel's attack on gaza's al-shipha hospital as a blatant violation of all international laws and humanitarian principles. the eu top official complains of famon being used as a weapon of war by israel to kill the people of gaza. and cuba says the us embassy in havana is seeking to stoke a broad anti-government uprising and a medal in the country's internal affairs.
