immediate cease fire in the gaza strip, which has so far fallen on telavy's deaf ears. israel definally insists it will perform an of operation on ratha where a million and a half palestinians have taken shelter. this is faced global criticism and stern warnings even from israel's closest ally, the us. the meantime truth negotiations are still ongoing in doha qatar, though with no breakthrough. so far israel's holocaust in gaza has killed more than 32000 palestinians. some half million gosins are already facing starvation and many more are on the brink. welcome to the spotlight. i'm your host berrus najafi and these are our guests in this episode. kam shariff activist and lawyer is joining me from london. also with us is shabia rizby, political commentator in chicago. okay, let of

me welcome both our guests, welcome both of you, so beginning with kim, kim, you're you're a lawyer uh, so uh, at last uh, the us abstained, deciding not to use its vedo power at the un security council, what in your of minds i motivated washington to do so, and does this mean a change of heart in his policies vis the televive regime, is it a publicity stunt? or what? yeah, good afternoon to you. it seems to me that that that that after i've analyzed the situation very carefully and i've been thinking about it and i've listened very carefully to the speech of the us representative at the un security council as to why they have um abstained. um, it is very obvious to to me, and i don't know about others, but it's very obvious to me that it was a publicity stunt. the us is aware that the whole world is now at totally against its position in relation

to supporting this uh genocidal regime and uh it has lost moral compass, it has lost the moral authority, it has lost a great deal uh that that that uh perhaps we can't even measure it at this stage and therefore it has decided to take this uh position b and and make it seem like it is concerned and and it wants the right thing to happen and so forth, but when you listen to the speech of the us for the security council, you will see that her entire focus and attention was on basically uh blaming and deflecting uh blaming blaming the whole delay in in getting the the the uh resolution uh voted on uh on the chinese and the russians and uh forgetting completely that they themselves three times vetoed a proposal to end the genocidal campaign of the israeli regie. and

um so it seems to me that this was clearly a political stun because if they really want to stop, if they really want to stop the genocide, the holocaust in palestine, today all they have to do is make a phone call and i'm pretty confident that they will be obeyed because they will they will be able to cut uh military aid, they will be able to cut all kinds of other aid, they will be able to put to bear a huge pressure on them, they will be able to sanction them, so it is this stunt this doesn't... work and i am not persuaded, i don't about others. okay, now uh, shabir, all un security council resolutions are considered binding, and this is in accordance with article 25, the un charter, which is ratified by the united states, but this one, the us has described the monday resolution as non-binding. how's that? yeah, that's certainly interesting. i mean, i think if we need to actually analyze history, there are actually dozens of unsc. resolutions that

israel has violated time and time again, we see it with the west bank, we see it with gaza, we see it with lebanon, this is a, this is an occupation that cannot be trusted, and so what the united states is doing is they're saying it's non-binding, why are they saying it's non-binding, because they know right now israel has become a parius state, and not only has it become a parius state, in the eyes of the international community, i would say, lot of us have known from the very start, it's been a pris. um, but all eyes are on israel, its image has never been more tattered, its image has never been uh this horrific in the eyes of the international community, so what the united states is doing right now is saving face of its most loyal junior partner and saying that these are non-binding, in that it knows that israel is going to violate uh the ceasefire resolution, whatever its terms may be, in fact they're already violating it, there were several bombings last night, there were several massacres last night and so... see is that

israel is very much intent on continuing this carnage um and so for one the united states is trying to save face and to we know that from the gecko... uh the israeli occupation will not honor this this resolution uh no matter what its terms may be. right. now kim, israely prime minister netanyahu has cancelled the visit of a ranking delegation to washington seemingly in protest at monday's un security council resolution. you know, and bb is already facing division among cabinet members, also opposition from the israeli people who've been out on the streets uh for a long time holding is against him and his policies, so would he in your opinion eventually get off his high horse or would he still presists to act stubbornly? i think this this act of counseling his visit to the us is just another one of those media game uh

that they play to make it seem like you know they are now in a tiff that that's not true because if they are in a tiff the genocide the holocaust would stop tonight and that's the fact. everyone knows it and we don't need to be missing our words about that and this man's life, livelihood, political career, everything together with his wife also who's been accused of certain things depends on continuation of this uh holocaust in gaza because up to now six months later all he has achieved is damaged the reputation of uh israel in the world um cut cut its own possible uh uh that it may had derived from any other sources if they had taken different course in relation to dealing with october the 7th and so he's now in a situation hasn't achieved any of his objectives from the time he entered uh gaza other than committing a holocaus that people are now comparing it to

the nazi germany of the second world war and so um him pretending that he's not going is to give america some kind to give america some kind of a gravity. in the world platform to make america seem like you know it's now taking a very firm uh stance towards israel and the the the reality is far from that if it wants to take a firm stances for for for them to say stop it now or else we are going to um apply sanctions on you we going to send our troops there to you to make sure that you don't invade do you what you threatening to do raffa and uh do that that kind of thing they have done that many times before right? relationon to many other people, but not in relation to palestine, because they are a party to this holocaust, the us regime is a party to this holocaus, so is the uk, unfortunately, yemen is the only one that is upholding the international rule of law, right? now shabir, officials in tel aviv have

taken no heat of the un call for cease fire, nor have they abided by the uh icj ruling, so what else can be done to force the regime? to stop this genocide or holocaust or whatever else you call in gaza. yes, so as we know, israel is a priest state, it doesn't care for um, what international mechanisms are being used against it, and so what it's going to have to come down to is that countries will have to take a bold stance, they're going to have economically cut ties with the zionist state, they're going to have to cut political ties with design state, they will have to turn to their own workers and their own uh their... locally uh their own local businesses and say, you cannot do business with the zionist regime. this is what it's going to have to come down to that, and of course uplifting the resistance and politically backing the resistance, because as you know, under international law, resistance against an occupying enemy is

completely justified. as soon as that justification is made well-known and it's honored internationally, as we saw china made similar comments a few weeks ago, we are going to see slowly but sure. um sort of just like how south africa was diminished the same diminishment of the israeli regime right now it's it's basically being politically as it always has it's being politically backed and militarily backed by the united states as soon as countries are able to independently say we will no longer do business with the zionist regime that is when that first domino will fall and it will create cascading effect that's going to take the israeli regime that's going to make it eventually fall because it cannot stand its own two legs without any political and economic assurances from basically the western world. now kim, let's not review israel's failure in the gaza

war. hamas leader ismal hani is now in tehran and he says that palestinians have shown in his words legendary resistance in the war and that israel has failed to achieve any of its military objectives. face that's it's a fact iof has failed to defeat even one single palestinian resistance group. yes, you know, this is remarkable. 'it's been 75 years or so that that this regime has been applying uh this genocidal schemes because genocide is not a one of action of of of of one party against another genocide is a thing is a process a thing that takes time so over the past 75 years they have been applying this genocidal policy towards the palestinian people yet remarkably they st they remain steadfast strong and carry on their resistance operation'. which is their inalienable right guaranteed by the un charter and occupied people are entitled to

do whatever is necessary to uh resist the occupation and the occupation doesn't have rights, the occupation has obligations to preserve the lives of the occupied, to to protect them, to do all kinds of uh things to make sure that their human dignity is not userved from them, and so yes in these, i totally agree that they haven't achieved any their objectives especially in... relation to the current genocidal campaign, they haven't freed any of the hostages, they haven't eliminated hamas as they claim that they were doing, instead they were just applying collective punishment policies, killing everybody, and it is horrowing to hear what the uh un human rights council special reporter francesca albanesi says today, she says this is the genocide is in gaza is so conspicuous and so ostentation. and she's absolutely right, i'm quoting her verbatum there, she's absolutely right, because it's it's live, it's unfolding before the eyes of

humanity, all over the world, and yet these guys are arrogantly carrying on, and they assume that they going to achieve something, and they are not going to, i totally agree with those who say that the the the the people of palestine have shown a remarkable, very moving uh fortitude and resilience and ability to resist the rather horrific monster. nasty uh occupying force right now shabir uh saying that political support for the tel aviv regime is waining and he cited the un security council monday resolution demanding the ceasefire so we have pro- palestine rallies and full swing around the world as you know we have israel's allies even their closest one turning their backs boycots of israel made goods by large number of countries on the way severance of relations or limiting relations, summoning ambassadors, filing lawsuits and

international fora, so what else could be in the offing? yeah, we're seeing multiple cascading effects of the october 7th resistance operation, hamas has basically bloodied the nose of israel to such an extent that they will never ever be able to recover. i think what's going to happen now is is tightening of these different types of resistance that we're seeing, whether that's resistance. directly on the ground uh from you know groups like hamas or the pflp, whether it's boycots expanding, as you can see, more companies are being targeted, to the point where you know sometimes even shipping lanes are being blocked, airports are being stopped by you groups here in the united states and and there's just more general political pressure being added to specifically the united states political apparatus, as you can see uh from the primary results coming in a lot of voters. are saying that they're uncommitted to joe biden specifically as a protest vote due to his uh

direct complicity in this genocide, and i think that's where it hurts the political system the most, because joe biden has been the number one backer of this genocide, if it were not for his policies, this would not have gone to the extent that it has. now that the political pressure is being applied to the number one financier and the number one political backer of the zionist regime, things... are going to start changing and it's not only just the voting that's you know going to be taken into effect, if you look at what's happening on the ground in the united states, politicians are being made uncomfortable, they're having these fundraiser events where activists are popping up and shutting down the fundraiser event, roadways are being blocked, highways are being blocked, entire docks are being blocked, and i think the united states is at risk of losing its own political legitimacy if it keeps backing this genocide, because as you can see... "there's millions of people on the streets collectively uh, not only in the united states, but across the entire world.

uh, they all support palestine. in fact, the only people that are supporting the israeli cause are specific zionist groups, people that are tricked into supporting zionism, and of course the united states ruling class who seeks to make, as jared krissner said, a port could, lead to lot of revenue for the united states capitalist class, the the people of the united states are directly at odds with their own ruling class, so why? they support some things, why would they support israel when they know that israel is committing this genocide, is in bed with the ruling class that's oppresses them day in and day out, there's no reason to support this, and the longer... that the united states digs its heels into this genocide, the more contradictions arise between the population the united states and the government of the united states, which clearly shows that it does, it does not have the interest of the people at hand, it does not have the interest of peace and security at hand, rather it has the interest of few select billionaire elite that want to expand their operations across

west asia and into asia uh for their own personal gain, right? turning to the humanity and... situation in gaza kim, some people have been crushed to death stamped, some of them drowned while trying to get a drop from the air, some of them were hit by those you know air drop aid, so this kind of you know aid air drop when i mean has prove not only humiliating but deadly, mean if the donors really want to help the people in gaza, why don't they simply force israel to open land crossings and i mean that is the easiest and the quickest way and the honest bonafide method of of alleviating the suffering there vis the humanitarian catastrophe aspect of it you have to also look at who is creating that environment who is doing this the israeli uh vicious regime it's doing it in because it uses hunger as a weapon of war, it wants to

flatten out the whole of gaza, the the whole conflict is now becoming clear that that it is about do with with the uh natural mineral resources of gaza itself, apparently there's so much gas in the sea of gaza, there is a talk about turning gaza into an attractive holiday resort and said it by jared krishna the other day, i saw an interview, horrified, horrified to hear, this is the ultimate, the ultimate psychopathy, you don't have to be psychologist expert to identify, these people are very, very sick and dangerous people, because they don't seem to appreciate the... value of human life, they don't seem to appreciate that the importance of preserving human life, instead they think any people can just be exterminated systematically like they're doing it now, whether you they're using whether using hunger as a weapon of war or or denying them access to basic necessities like medicine and water and uh just outright shooting them and and buldosing

them and continue to attack the same hospital over and over again raping women in the in in there are allegations of rape taking place by the israeli uh soldiers there and it's month of ramadan people are fasting we feel we understand what it is to be hungry and thirsty can you imagine what it is like for the people of gaza that has been the situation for nearly 20 years for them and now it's just being intensified what needs to happen is just like francesca albanizi the special reporter of the human rights council said uh today she's calling for sanctions and embargo on israel the whole world. needs to now stop dealing with them, literally kick their embassy ambassadors out, close down their embassies and tell them you going to stop this uh systematic extermination of these people or else we're not going to talk to you, we're not going to deal with you, and of course we need to reprimand and maybe even have them investigated those countries that have been creating a land passage for the

israeli uh vicious regime uh whilst the uh gazans are are starving the air dropping. off the food was pretty hollywood movie stunt to make it seem like they are they care they trying to do this is a classic example where a narcissist or psychopath pretends to have empathy do you understand what i'm saying so these guys are psychopaths they are dangerous and they the palestinian people need to be protected from the evils of these people all right now shabir uh israel saying it cannot defeat hamas without going into rafa what it says the uh movement has four battalions composed of thousands of fighters. now even if that is true, would that be the right thing comment to wipe out the entire population there to achieve the goal? no, of course not. there's no reason for this the siege even be happening in the first place. i'm not just even talking about after october 7th, i'm talking about the history of the the

besegement of gazza. um, what they're asking to do uh, what they're trying to gain a approval for before they do it is genocide is ethnic cleansing. there are hundreds of thousand, there's a million people in there, it's the last place they have to go, and guarantee, no matter what they do, as we have seen time and time again, year after year, they they say that they have targeted bombings, that's just simply not true, the their bombs are unguided, and what they're trying to do is massacre as many people as possible, they're trying to force them out, there is nothing surgical about this. and even if it was, this is a full-blown occupation, and it is an illegal occupation. hamas has every right to exist. any resistance group has any right to resist illegal occupation? this is... under the un's own law, um, what they're trying to do here is is ben laws is take advantage of the fact that they are politically and military backed

by the united states and commit massacre of untold proportions. we we have never seen anything like this on in history where such sophisticated military has backed all these people into a specific uh into a specific corner has deprived them of food and medicine. has broken them psychologically, has broken them physically, and now wants to finish them off, they're asking the world for permission to commit massacre that will surely finish off the population of gaza, and they want the world's approval to do it, but they have become so illegitimized, they have become a pariot state, and they're going to be unable to do this, and now they're trying to make a gamble at it and say that they're going to go in, and it's just not going to work out for them, this this objective that they have of destroy. hamas is not going to work, and they don't even consider that every time that they kill a palestinian, who else is going to rise up to rise up to the task of joining the resistance and fight back, this

is something that they are not considering whatsoever. now kim, in terms of the true stocks, now qatar is saying that the adoption the un security council resolution uh has not had any immediate effect on the talks for now, at least the israely media said the talks had fallen through, they blame hamas's response to... us proposal for a prisoner swap, now hamas is saying that israel is entirely responsible for the failure of the negotiation efforts, so do you see a ceasefire deal around the corner? i do hope so, but i i can imagine, i mean you know going a high level negotiation meetings of of this sort, it's a very tense atmosphere, i mean as a commercial lawyer i have attended these negotiation sessions, it's a very, very tense atmosphere and... "you need to have parity between the negotiating parties, if you know what i in the sense of like they need to be of equal strength, but here we got

two parties of totally unequal strength, one party which is supremasist in its ideology and its position and its assumption, it thinks it is superior to all other humans and of course in relation to hamas, it sees itself as even more superior and it sees hamas is a mere hot. potch of uh terror militia which is not true and they know it, but uh and so having negotiation in in a room like that, it is filled with with contempt by one side to the other side and another side trying to uphold its rights with with with all it can uh despite all the obstacles that it has in front of it, so it's a very difficult scenario and i can imagine i commend all those uh mediators who are in there who are maintaining the uh the peace in there and so i hope there will be, hope some somebody will tell israel, for god's sake, listen, the whole world now is aware of your heinous crimes, the whole world sees you as a

proper psychopath, this is what you need to tell your client when you are in negotiating like that, you know your client is unreasonable, you have to bad upon them and tell them, listen, you are going to have to come enter into a deal here and if you don't then going to backfire on you very very badly, okay? uh, on that note we come to the end of this uh episode of the spotlight, i apologize for that, kim sharif, activist and lawyer, joined me from london, shabir resby, political commentator from chicago, appreciate it, and thank you for watching this episode of the spotlight on press tv, i've been your host berrus najafi, and i'll see you next time. مشکل تعبیه توی همه کارخونه جات تولیدی بود از
