welcome everyone, now life in the occupied west bank where everything is controlled by the israeli occupying forces, from movement of to employment, access to education and healthcare, the right to build on one owns, one's own land, the right to hold to what one is built, not to have it demolished or vandalized by settlers with no re. force in

israeli courts, this is life under israeli apartide for palestinians, but it seems not enough for the regime that it needs to send in military vehicles and troops every single day into palestinian neighborhoods to harass, terrorize, kill, destroy and detain a vicious campaign that this week has taken a dramatic turn for the worse as well discuss now in this edition of press tv spotlight. joining us now is kim sharif activist and lawyer out of london along with sakina.2, author, journalist and producer, also joining us from london. ladies, like to welcome you both to the program here. i guess kina uh, we'll start with you uh, your initial thoughts on we saw occupy uh, the occupied west bank being uh terrorized for years by the occupation army. we saw it get worse uh last year with the the the onset of this new israeli cabinet that came to power. we've seen it get much worse after october 7th.

"and now we have seen it concerning league getting worse in the last two days, your initial thoughts. i think uh, this is in keeping with the whole plan of evacuating palestinians, we have seen the israelis uh do the same in gaza with the aim of actually displacing uh the palestinians from their homeland, and now it has moved to the west bank, so since october 7th, we've seen over 600 palestinians killed in the west bank." "they have offered voluntary evacuation, this is this is obvious that the whole agenda and the whole aim is to displace palestinians. this also you mentioned you, they have made life so difficult in every manner, people of cannot grow their food anymore, agriculture is dead, the roads are all blocked, there is no supply of water, people cannot have access to health or any medical facilities, check points everywhere, people do..." not have

access to employment, the pa was you know providing at least about 21% of employment to palestinians living in the west bank, that is all gone, so the whole idea here really is to the whole the aim of israel's existence is to have a greater israel, this was always the plan, and i think they have seen an opportunity right now to put this into practice, this is nothing but expansion. of colonialism, we saw this happen right at the 1948, when when the state of israel was established, and if we if we you know deep back into history and look at the very people who established the state of israel, this was the first president was the white man who was given this israel because of his ability as biochemist to produce acaton which was for gun. powder so the idea of them you know

involved in violence started with the very of introduction of the state of israel with the aim of colonizing and and controlling you this is the idea of controlling the resources of the entire world so i don't think there is any surprise to see what they are doing in in palestine they have done the same in gaza and now they've moved to the west bank thank you and kim welcome to the program. program: uh, mam, sakina datu says, this is all part of israel's colonial plan, agreed, but yet, at some point doesn't the regime even realize that too much marginalization, too much aggression and too much violence against palestinian civilians in the occupied west bank is detriment even to its own colonial project. yes, indeed, good evening to you both and to sister sakina and everything you guys said is totally accurate. "and it's a

very dangerous time in our history, in human history at the moment, because this process of expansion, expansionism by the israel is likely to continue and is going to impact on just about every..." everybody else and the the thing is they they are and they don't care, they don't care any impact it might have because they have the backing of the mighty western world in its entirety together with germany, france and everybody else is on their side, already able and willing to provide them with everything they require, from media coverage to uh weapons to political support, diplomatic support to misinformation to genocide denial, everything else. we name it, they have it ready made for them, including the australians and the canadians, and you can see why the canadians and the australians and the and the americans in particular might be particularly very pushed towards uh supporting this guestly genocidal regime, because you see their own

existence is is is has been created in the same way by exterminating the natives and taking over their land and super imposing white supremacist ideology. and systems of governance, and uh, if they feel, i believe, if they, if they back down on on supporting israel uh with this genocidal campaign and expansionism campaign, then they will be told that, look, you yourself have been created in the same way, you can't uh, you know, stop there, you also have to remember the messianical fundamentalist extremists from the us and elsewhere, who are also backing this regime because of their delusion. ideologies of wanting to control the holy land for the purposes of the misanical fundamentalist extremist ideologies that really loads everybody else and sees itself as the supreme human beings and everyone else is uh nothing and and nobody and so we are in

a very very tricky situation and it's likely to have very very negative impact not only on this genocidal regime which is extremely racist in its essence, it's extremely racist in its essence, it does not respect other human lives at all, it regards all other humans as as it as as kind of animals there to to serve their needs only and nothing else, and so we are in a fascist nazi systems of a world that is becoming extremely even more dangerous for everybody else, you can see in the west here people are being arrested. for uh speaking up for palestine on trumped up charges, people who provide social media platforms for imparting news about it, are also being charged with horrendous crimes, which sounds quite irrational and illogical in its essence, because if that person is guilty of those crimes that they are alleging, then uh everybody else,

including google is guilty of the same crimes, because the uh spaces provided by google are also importing the same kind of uh uh materials that they are complaining of, but the truth is really what they are. targeting is people who are speaking for palestine, they don't want this genocide to be spoken about and defended and stopped, they wanted to continue because they have these these their own agendas involved in this in this massacre, but you know as as as we say they have a plan, but god has other plans and people who have their humanity is still left intact like iran and the resist resistance brothers, they're not going to stop defending the people of palestine. "in fact even the people of egypt, jordan, morocco, whose governments are are supporting the genocidal regime, the people are demanding that there be action, and i have seen recently movements in egypt in particular, which was quite refreshing to see, the people of egypt are demanding

cessation of relations with this gustly genocidal, racist apartize regime and action by their government to support the people of palestine, and that's quite a new..." development in in in the arabic streets, which is kind of refreshing, because up to now all we had was the resistance brothers sacrificing all and everything they had to defend the people of palestine and no one else is defending them. thank you, kim sharif and sakuno, kim said some really powerful things i want to touch upon, but first i want to read a small little uh uh snipit from this article here about life in the occupied west bank, it says the people in occupied west bank uh they live in this a deep-rooted occupation, it lingers in the air for them a daily basis. it says the the residents unfortunately are very well acquainted with political strife and abuse any given night. this really prime minister benjamin netanyahu's military performs raids on uh

palestinian neighborhoods, often ransacking homes and abducting civilians on arbitrary accusations. while this practice is clearly illegal, the israeli military regards this custom as both routine. and rational, we let we've let in this get the israelis, the world has let them get away with this for so long, unfortunately, it is become normal for them, has the world, and according and... even to kim's point uh local neighbors, arab leaders fail the palestinians. absolutely, but i think you know again, it it's like it's so brutal, the what israel is imposing upon the palestinians, is so brutal that any person, if they were to independently literally just think about what is going on, they would straight away be able to tell you who's on the right side of history and who is not, however we are talking about people here, like i said, these are the... zionist who are supremacist, mean their very beginning, the

very you know where they came from, everything defines the idea that they do not consider palestinians or anyone else other than themselves as being equal human beings, so once you you know dehumanize another population, it does not matter what you do to them anymore, and this is what they are doing, mean the the it's almost laughable really if you think about you sister. mentioned about this messanic you know support from the us, they they are basing their support of israel on apparently the biblical predictions, but you know zionists are not have nothing, absolutely nothing to do with religion, i mean if you if you again look at the history and look at where they came from, these are the same zionist who have around the world put forward a banking system, road child banking system, which even here in the west and also everywhere around

the world ensures that the the divide between the rich and the poor continues to grow because they think that they are the ones who have the right to control and to own maximum resources around the world, so when you start out with people who already have moral campus, all they care about is they themselves, then what we are seeing happening in in palestine, you makes it clear. here looking at it from that lens looks obvious in in terms of this you know banking system we're talking about, if you look at it from a religious point of view, the the jewish, if you look at the christians bible, if you look at islamic quran, all of them talk against for example interest, so how are these people who are actually controlling the banking system and the financial system around the world have anything to do with any kind of? religion when they go against their own books, so i i think it it is people even in the west unfortunately are so blinded by

years and years of propaganda that you know with the help of of america and and british governments that israel has been able to to put forward that people are not able to understand that these israelis and and especially you talked about the neighbors, i mean we look at jordan and egypt it's bagger's belief because... "they will be the next target, if you look at the plan of what israel wants, which is the bigger israel, you know, they it includes all these neighboring arab countries, so sometimes you feel like they are in some sort of slumber, it's like people who are so intoxicated by the world and it's you know offers that are coming from the west that they are not able to clearly see their own downfall along with what they are doing, it's it's just honestly it just does not make sense." and for israel themselves, they are not really scared of anybody because they have the support of the

biggest western nations. right, thank you, sakina, and kim sharif, that's the problem, the israelies they're not afraid of anyone, and when it comes to accountability, we have seen actually condemnations and even sanctions against individual settlers in the occupied west bank, if you know if you noticed in the past for violence against uh the residents of the occupied west bank including many farmers that have suffered, but sir, see the funny thing is it's very deceptive when you have sanctions against individual settlers, because this is implication that it is not a systemic problem, it is not of systematic proportions the violence against the palestinians when you sanction individual settlers, so in a way it actually exonerates the regime and it does not favor palestinians when you sanction individual settlers to address the problem. indeed, i mean what you want to do is hold the actual. reg and its leaders accountable for that, because the over 700 thousand

settlements that they have created post oslo for example, itself is a is very, very serious breach of international law and international agreements, that alone is enough to enable the western powers, if they really truly want to uh prove to the world that they are complying with international law and they are not undermining international rule of law, then they need to be hold holding the system, the regime itself accountable, not sanction. individuals and these individuals don't give you toss about it. i have been watching a woman from texas uh now waiting to be settled in gaza where before the actual current situation has been resolved. she's already preparing herself to settle in gaza, she is woman from texas and her base is proclaiming the return to the illegal occupation of of gaza is that she has a birth right to be there because she is jewish and that is the messianical delusion that i am speaking about, yes it is not messianical in the sense that we as muslims

understand it, or the true christians understand or the true jewish people understand it, but messianical of the hypocritical... sense, of the false messiah sense, and so that their understanding of life and living and rules of law etc. is completely distorted from what we all know to be the case, their humanity is totally different from what we understand humanity to be, their humanity is one of narcissism, entitlement, you know, they come first, nobody else, and nobody else counts, they don't have any empathy, they don't care about how many millions and billions of people they destroy in this world, exterminate and and to what uh the the nazis in the second world war were doing and much worse and uh that is because the their ideology is is distorted is delusional, it's not the true facts as we know them, it's it's a hypocrite bible if you like, a hypocrite's ideology, a hypocrites booklet that that they are guided by and they are following to the to the to strictly, and

that's because they are by themselves by nature, they have to be narcissist, because if they weren narcissis. they would have a little bit of empathy and suffer a little bit and feel for these people and the horrors that they are going through. for god's sake, we don't allow animals to suffer like that in front of us, how can we allow other humans to suffer like that? you can see what i'm saying, when i say they they lack empathy, that means they are either psych, psychopaths, sociopath or or narcissist. each of those cases it means they have very serious diabolical mental health issue that is literally incurable and is... very dangerous to humanity and that's what we are dealing with, unfortunately, if you analyze lot of capital and capitalist and capitalism and all those that go around it, you will find that these patterns of very diseased spirits, diseased souls are quite frequently present, ben gavir, you showing us his face, he is fantastic example of the type of

diabolical people that i am speaking about, they have no mercy whatsoever, they just want to exterminate the people of palestine and low and... they would be going after every single other person in the neighboring countries and way beyond, in fact as far back as africa, i have, i am seeing movements designed to control parts of africa for the exclusive benefit of the zinus regime still by the same western powers who are unfortunately unable to someh somehow realize the dangers of continuing in this really ill uh conceived ill planned uh misadventure against humanity. thank you, kim, and sakina, what are west bankers to do, when they live again in this kind of situation against what kim was saying, this ill-conceived treatment of humanity, day in and day out, terrorized, have their uh neighborhoods raised, their homes destroyed, have - their property

damaged, stolen, have their children abducted, killed, maimed by the occupation. forces, what recourse do they have and what are they to do when the world is basically turn their backs on them? i think they already doing what they can do, which is resistance. palestinians have shown a spirit of resistance that i think is unmatched in history, and and they have other recourse. if if you look at there is an eye of the holy quran that says you know that those who continue to oppress others, they they... he will do it for some time, but eventually we have seen all type of oppressors with example the pharaohs that eventually their end came there, and palestinians who are practicing muslims and christians, understand this philosophy and know that this is a test upon them, this is testing their faith, their you know trust in god, and and we continuously

see it touching when you see those mothers who just lost their babies, sometimes they are holding dead bodies of their babies, their hands and they say you know they they praise god and they say we only believe in god and we leave it to to him and you know you cannot kill the spirit of people who hold this kind of faith and who hold to the resistance at the moment israel is you know gone into west bank claiming that iran is supplying you know arms and now to people in the west bank this is what they started with in gaza saying there was hamas and they were going after hamas they have. not been able to dismantle hamas, they have not been able to bring any kind of real and for hisbullah in fact, not a lot of things are reported in the western media, but the... have been getting a really good beating from hizbullah and so what do you expect people to do? the resistance is only going to grow every child, every woman, every man in palestine has seen

you know pain, blood and and they are not going to forgive this, they are not going to forget, so generations to come will do one thing which they are doing right now, which is resistance and eventually the victory comes to those who hold steadfast to path of god, thank you both for joining us, ladies, time has gotten the better of us, but i want to thank you both and stay safe to both of you, kim shadif activist and lawyer joining us there, and sakina dow to author, journalist and producer both joining us out of london, and viewers, this bring us to end the segment, your press tv spotlight program, thank you for tuning in and goodbye for now. the us said it was going to reconstruct
