welcome back to gaza under attack, where we focus on the ongoing us enabled israeli genocidal war on gaza and its brutal violence against palestinians in the occupied west bank. before we go to our panel, look at some of the later developments. the unrelenting us israeli bombardment continues across the gaza strip. in khan unis in the south of the territory, israeli occupation troops have target. a sol safe zone, killing at least

seven palestinians in the occupied west bank, series of raids by israeli forces, killing a 17-year-old palestinian boy and shooting a child in the back. elsewhere in the west bank, israeli settlers have set fire to palestinian property. the us, the country that supplies israel with weapons, funding and diplomatic support, has sanctioned a far right israeli group and four illegal outposts. us and british aircraft have struck hudata international airport in yemen. three times, yemen is demanding that israel end its genocidal war on gaza. reports of microsoft, closing the email accounts of palestinians living abroad, cutting off their access to online services used to contact relatives in gaza. a dutch court has rejected demand by rights groups to order the netherlands to block all exports of f-35 fighter jet parts which might end in israel. in less than 10 months, israel has killed more than 38,000 people and wounded more than 88,000 in the gaza strip. a recent reported by lanced

medical journal estimates palestinian death doll at 186,000. okay, let's get the thoughts of my guest on those stories. in the studio is political analyst said morsen abbas and joining us via zoom from london is mark wadsworth. mark is an avowed anti-racist campaigner, journalist and author. gentlemen, thank you for joining the show. let me start with you, mosen. we're going to get to the dithering by the american president uh in a little bit. but the devastation is ongoing, as i read there earlier, and so is the palestinians who are getting killed a daily basis. where are we now in terms of the genocide in the gaza strip and the violence in the bank of course? i think the biggest revelation is that 186,00 uh people are of likely to have died, you see of course the bombings have definitely taken out 38,00 or so plus the 83 that we knew were injured, but this figure of 88600 dying is... in the

extreme, it's not getting a lot of coverage in mainstream western media for obvious reasons because israel wants to damp down of that reality, you're even doubting and and disputing the figures the... of 3800 did palestinians too, much less the 186,000 by the lance, well it's it's a indictment of what their policy has been, because this is of course from the result, you see the trauma, the starvation, the the the family that's been induced, the disease that's been spread across, this is accelerating the death of ordinary palestinians and of course when you see figure which says around to 10% palestinian population in gaza has essentially been wiped out then it is a genocide by default you can you can uh grade it such because it's very it seems very strange that the anglo-western empire can't even now work out what the figure is which actually says this is a genocide conveniently whereas they were very they find it very easy to say when you talk about ukraine or other areas where they are implementing wars of

other kinds exactly and mark we're hearing reports of tech giants uh such as microsoft cutting the services and accounts to... thousands inside gaza, people complaining their online accounts have been wiped out merely for using skype to get in touch with family members or relatives in the gaza strip and vice versa talk about how tech companies are using their leverage to the disadvantage of palestinians in this case are overwhelmingly us, microsoft, twitter which is now... "most of the social media platforms that we use are centered in the united states and the tech companies have been weaponized by the us, we've seen accounts being closed down as you mentioned of any dissident voices

against the genocide in gaza, and this is something we've got to stand up to, and that's why people are increasingly going to uh tiktok, which is..." chinese uh owned to telegram which is russian owned and so they can do this at their peril, people will find other ways of communicating with each other and getting the truth out there in the uh global world in the internet. exactly and you're looking at netanyahu traveling to the us to address uh the congress uh you have. "as you heard earlier, the americans sanctioning a couple of outp settler outposts at the same time uh, speaking of an opportunity for cease fire now, although we were told in may it was an israeli plan that the us uh backed it up that the israelies had accepted it, we're yet to see that, what is

happening in terms of the us role in what we've been seeing for the past nine months? well just answer to that last question first, unit a 200 have access to good..." google, amazon to uh microsoft, they have over 99 named individuals who are expires for unit 8200 who are basically placed in high level position, mr. cowin for instance was one who was is on the insights team in in facebook i believe or google sorry, so that that american reference that has been made to them controlling most of these tech companies actually has to be supplemented with the reality that there's a huge intation of... israeli operatives and spies who basically uh manage and control most of the major if you like tech companies that we use all the time, so this has a big bearing on on how things pan out. as far as um where america uh stands in terms of palestine, there is this kind of foe uh sympathy that they try to sort of put

put across and they they try to play the card, it's an extreme government in in israel, blame it all on netan yahoo, it's these extremists that are doing it, but we're trying our best to stop all this, which is absolute rubbish. the fact of the matter is that they are still supplying hundreds of thousands of tons of bombs and weapons. the fact is that they've done nothing in this cease fire agreement to push the israel into a position where they have to accept the ceasefire, even though hamas have given all concessions that they possibly can and have been very positive about trying to get that seasw done. it's the israelis and the americans who really aren't actually interested. well, well, perhaps we can cover that in more detail later on, but uh, hold on. to that thought from now, because this week the us president joe biden faced a sola news conference with questions from the white house press court. the news conference was meant to reassure a dishearden group of democratic lawmakers, allies and persuadable voters in this year's election, the biden still has the strength and stamina to be

president. so far, his disastrous public showings have undermined his campaign. one of the areas of concern was his handling of the gaza crisis. biden acknowledged disappointments, missteps and frustrations with israel. government, but pointed increase hopes now of his fire to end the bombardment the palestinians. third, for months, united states has work to secure a ceast fire in gaza, to bring the hostages home, to create path for peace and stability least. six weeks ago, i laid out detailed plan in writing, was endorsed by the un security council, the g7, that framework is now agreed on by both israel and hamas, so i sent my team region to hammer out the details. these are difficult, complex issues. "there's still gaps to close, we're making progress, the trend is positive,

and i'm determined to get this deal done and bring an end to this war, which should end now. i know israel well, and i support israel, but this war cabinet is one of the most conservative war cabinets in the history of of israel, and there's no ultimate answer the two-state solution here. and mark, uh, just to pick up on what muslim said earlier, that israel and the you not..." very different really in this in this regard, are we supposed to trust really the handling of one of the most volatile situations in the region to a man who is unsure whether he is talking zelensky or putin? it's extraordinary, isn't it? i watch that where he introduced in president vladimir zelensky as president putin and then his vice president camela harris as vice president trump, i mean this is clearly... "a man that has lost his marbles, hasn't got a grip on his mental capacity, shouldn't be running at

the age of 81, for president of the united states, which would mean that he would be what sort of 85, 84, by the end of his term, he's just not fit for purpose, and it terrifies me that he is said to be the leader the free world because we live in a unipolar world where the american industry. military industrial complex rules us, so no, i don't believe the word that he says on the proposal he's put forward to end the conflict and get sease fire, there must be a permanent cefire and immediate withdrawal of the israeli occupies genocidal military from gaza, that is yet to happen and was saying as a we mentioned earlier uh about that cease fire uh deal, they said in may that they had a uh

deal ready that the israeli was an israeli deal and that the americans supported recently the un as well, and that the problem was only hamas, as we know that is not the case, but in terms of biden being at the helm in the us, if he were to be beat by donald trump and the november elections, what would that mean for the uh genocide in gaza? i "a lot will change, trump is equally invested in uh the israeli occupation, in fact some would argue more so, and his support would be even more uh, if you like, practical, and on the ground, i don't think anything would change, i think they're all quite happy with this idea that israel does this kind of ethnic cleansing genocide under the guise of finishing hamas and after 10 months they can't give us any evidence to suggest that they've got any close to finishing hamas in any way shape or form, they haven't got the hostages back, they've not..." really even guaranteed that gaza won't be a problem for them in the future, in fact they've guaranteed that it'll be even a bigger

problem because you've now ignited an entire generation which will literally will hate america, it will hate uh israel and the occupation even more and we'll be even more committed to the access of resistance and a military solution uh to to israel, so i don't see any changes. donald trump has got the same kind of backers, he's got the same lobby israeli lobby groups satisfy and therefore america still regards israel rather. 'usionally as its kind of warship in the middle east and it wants to use israel as its kind of anchor there to cause the usual plunder and and pillaging that they they they're doing they're committed that's that's the american interest that is the deep state interest and whether trump and the other thing about trump and biden and their performances you see this theater that we see played out which deludes the americans into thinking they've got a democracy uh is actually quite good that it's falling apart at the scenes when you have to - two fools like this basically going at it, because now even the american public recognizes that

something's not quite right here, and the reality is what is not right is america is an oligarchy, and it's under underwritten by a bunch of banksters who basically dictate most the policy, and that policy is towards an immoral economic plunder, it's not about uh human rights or democracy or nonsense, exactly, so so maybe it's a wake up call for the american citizens, they need to wake up to understand that... whole so-called democracy has been hijacked long ago. all right, let's talk about politics here in in the uk. the workers party of britain standing mainly on the pro- palestine mandate during. the recent general elections in the uk failed to return an mv to parliament despite fielding 150 candidates across the country. we asked one former parliamentary candidate to wase rajfort based in leads england, why that was the case? without proportional representation, it is very difficult for a small party to break through the pendolum effect that favors the two largest parties.

corre corporate interest in the uk. ensure that the two large parties are brought and paid for by the rich and powerful, their key policies are almost identical so that the interest of the uk establishment are safe whichever of form, whichever of them form the government, this and the dominance of the mainstream media means that smaller parties. huge barrier getting their message cross to the voters, the workers party came very close to winning in a number of working class seats where a few hundreds voters could have brought success, the worst party's candidates will certainly contest again more than 4000

people in leads vote vote to support workers party candidates in the general election on 4th of july, we have an important and realistic policy platform which we believe addresses the urgent political needs of the uk. our manifesto remains as relevant today as it was last week. our task now is to build a grassroots, democratic socialist alternative to the labor party that has taken our votes for guaranted for years. this means that we will face a future election with the member. base that is stable and secure and with the party infrastructure that will have grown to meet future challenges. we will be inviting all of our supporters to join us as a members. this will give the party roots in the community and stable funding for our future work. key world health organization

figures were east jerusalems, the west bank in gaza to meet with health official. health partners, donors, who staff, and health workers and patients to review the health situation firsth, discuss a challenges there and find ways to strengthen coordination for the health response amit the israel bombardment. let's hear from dr. hannan balki, regional director for the eastern mediterranean on her trip to a damaged hospital in gaza. this is been one of the visits that has been a crucial eye opener on the devastation effect on the people. the complexities of the injuries that we're seeing here, right behind me, i have neonatal level two caria, before that i was at an orthopedic unit where there was a very complex external fixation of a traumatized, complex fractures of the lower lims of middle aged uh man, um, i really hope that the situation becomes car soon and that peace

prevails soon and we can start take care of our patients in the most dignified and proper way for the betterment of themselves. their family and the community of the ghaza people. thank you. all right, um, i'm going to go to mark for this one, and mark, you were formerly with the labor party and monitored the rise um of smaller parties and independence, do you think that uh, the deck is stacked against um their parliamentary entry? yes, of course. it's shocking that uh, we heard from the workers party of great britain just now, getting a quarter. million votes and yet not getting a single mp elected, even george gallaway won in watch down the by-election earlier in the year didn't retain his seat, that he got as many votes almost as he won in the by-election, but the labour party machine because we have this zeopy of labour party and conservatives

with this crooked first past the post system uh actually uh defeated him uh can i tell... that um the welsh nationalists and the shin fain irish nationalists less votes than the workers party and yet they respectively uh got seven mps elected and four mps elected so you can see how completely distorted and broken the british so-called democratic system is, we desperately need proportional representation, look what happened in france with the popular front yeah who had previously had 71 seats in the french parliament, the national assembly and doubled that to more than 180. because they have pr, that's what we need, they're now the largest party in the french parliament defeating the fascist um ty of uh lepen, yeah, and so you

could see that there's going to be a big move now from nigel farage is unfortunately far right party because they only got four seats uh on um what was it four million votes yeah um totally distorted. that they only got four seats, so the push is going to come from both the right and the liberals like you know sort of um the liberal democrats who got 72 seats, the greens who got four seats, yeah who de disperately need proportional representation in order for them to get fair distribution of members of parliament, and can i put this on the record, quick it's actually labour party conference policy to support proportional representation and yet the leader undemocratically 'kir starmer has set his face against it because he wants to continue to benefit from this crooked, corrupt system, and i think it was the form who came second

in like 90 constituencies, mosen. um, mark mentioned kier starmer himself, your thoughts on on him as prime minister or labor government, we saw him go to the nato meeting talking of britain's place in the alliance as one of the founding members and trading out the usual anti-iran and pro nato rhetoric'. he was asked about the muslim vote, he didn't seem to be too bothered after he had won that landslight victory by the fact that lot of the people in the larger muslim communities didn't vote for him, well i think on this occasion it probably didn't affect him uh that much, although the definitely the margins were much shorter in many many constituencies, had there been a bit more uh organization and unity, the six independents who came to power largely in labor constituencies uh would have been about 10, maybe even slightly more, that's quite significant. "i think also that the time period that was given for the election made it uh impossible for new party or for the smaller parties or independents to really organize quickly enough and to get their

message across and that the fact that our media is controlled by about six billionaires, the barkley brothers and rupert murdock included who will put their weight behind labor essentially this time and the fact that usually the case if they have candidate or a party's back the're definitely got to win that and that this is all why you know you could be forgiven for" uh um feeling that actually there is a bit of kind of informal ring going on, because again it all seems like everything, even sunax's kind of decision making seemed to all favor labor, and it's also said that had the election taken place few weeks later, it would have not been quite so comfortable for labing those marginal, but since we're fast running out of time, you made a comparison between trump and biden as president in the states as far as the genocide in gaza or the palestinian rights, what will it mean here in the uk with the labor government in power? "this is a man, the prime minister now, who said the israel reserved the right to cut off food and water and supply the palestinians in the early days of the genocide? stommer is basically a product of neoliberalism, there

no difference between old tory and k starma's labor party, essentially labor has shifted to center right, perhaps even further right than we realize, and i think that's going to continue reform is going to force the tories to go even further right and it'll make the labor go in, so i see in the future is really shift towards right rightest policies uh" and i think here starmer in terms of his attitude towards gaza and towards humanitarianism and towards uh foreign policies which are just, but forget it, it's not going to happen uh kistamer is no different from rishi sunakul, in fact again he's even more uh compliant than i think the tories are and on so many issues, i neoliberalism is is the culprate, but behind the scenes it's those who financially back neoliberalism as the ideology of of choice in the west and until the the british public are more politically or... less politically illiterate, less economically illiterate, you won't see any changes. no changes. well, that is all for gaza under attack everyone, my thanks mosen abbas and mark wadsworth and to you for

watching us. catch our earlier episodes on pressv.co.uk, and until me again, continue to keep palestine in your hearts. in the first part of today's show we'll be taking a look at the presidential rate and what it might mean in terms of the united states future policy towards palestine and israel in the... second part will be evaluating the outcome of the british general election and whether it's likely to affect the uk's relationship with a signest entity. most presidential candidates wouldn't even be able to point to palestine a map. they have

no... idea of the nuances uh involved, the history of the conflict, we didn't ever think that we could get a break through like that in the first pass the post system because it's designed to avoid that kind of thing, but we got five uh seats, this really regime's onslot is decimating its economy, if it is loses all of its national assities, nothing compares to the loss of life and offistation bomb by palestinians who continue to be killed on daily basis. it's fighting a war on three fronts, another possibility of a fullf war with heisballah is adding more to his uncertain economic future. we now see thousands of israelis since october 7th, but even recently, even more and more. are

leaving for fear of a wider war. can the regime survive another war? how is the regime bearing the war costs? israel has increasingly difficult time of holding their economy together. in this week's episode of irontech we're checking out heavy water production facility to talk about how iran managed to rank among the top five producers of heavy water in the world, but heavy water even is, it significance and how it's made. in this week's episode, don't miss it, times are listed below.

first to be headlines this military pushes ahead with this genocide of parestanian civilians in the gas trip as the death from the onslot tops 38,400. amases netan is responsible for the failure of the gaza cease fire talks, adding that the... movement shown maximum flexibility in negotiations and us presidential candidate donald trump survived an assassination attempts during campaign rally in pennsylvania. the shooter was killed by security forces at the same.
