one being that the private collection, it's a national does a, a month before the war. he bought us to bring her paintings home. she dreamt of having an exemption abroad. now her last piece is join more than $300.00 artworks at the palestinian museum. old by gods and artists called this is not an exhibition items were collected from local galleries in the occupied westbank. also from people's living rooms. an attempt to preserve causes rich art scene. now being wiped out. it's a space to prove, to organize or see, or just some of the, some who shared his own paintings and some others from his collection. what's become of his model when the war ends were quite together. but now we need to paint and survive some art. this our painting now from the street there been displaced to who will cry, but we will then start painting life, oranges from nature and laughter. nothing about this exemption is traditional or

neat, prominent or dis work place next to younger art. this is a reminder that the old one under his way the bombardment most are displaced in similar tents next to one another. do you know, my thought has vivid memories of her visit to her destroyed home? no display sort of just still alive, but her memories are in ruins because of the kind of us and the wood. unfortunately, they have used a lot of hair work to be burnt, to warm themselves in such a miserable condition. diverse a nature color and meaning behind every piece is a story of hope and pain. with these really made it through your occupation front and center. some spaces on the we are waiting to be filled with more paintings. i chanced to take part in collective breach and remembrance.

i think the stubborn they refuse to die, and certainly they refused to die quietly for our dest participating in this exemption were killed during this war, on cause of many other artists, the museum could not even reach an opening submission, only to be closed after the war. ends as it drags on menu on these paintings. maybe only survivors of causes are made that but he just the to the occupied westbank and that does it for me. so then you notice our next step on alpha 0 is the bottom line just to ensure the a hi, this is an inconvenience. as a un, i'm by so the position given to you by or die,

suppose you've described that is better than is that any thoughts provided? hang on my question to you all. the good cooks, i think, is the most difficult press than our part to answer facing realities. usb to in the security council. this is a may just don't think look as if it exit or to hear the story on told to how does era a hi, i'm steve clements and i have a question. will biden's uncompromising support for israel cost him the votes of anti war americans this november? let's get to the bottom line. the total after pay indicate that the majority of americans are dissatisfied with abiding administrations handling a v as really scorched earth campaign and gaza. the international court of justice is found that israel is possibly committing a genocide in gaza, but more than a 1000 palestinians had been killed since that ruling. and the shortage of food of

water shelter caused by israel siege of gaza is getting worse every day. many americans are protesting administration as it not only starts the supports the war, but it supplying the weapons and providing the diplomatic cover for israel to pursue its plan. now there's talk of a temporary pause mediated by the white house, but no permanent ceasefire. so with the elections, 9 months away will bind be punished at the ballot box for his support of israel's war. today we're talking with independent presidential candidate, cornell, west, one of america's most prominent philosophers and activists for racial, social and economic justice. let me just start out, dr. west, you're running for president of the united states. you have launched a new political party. i'd like to just start out and say, if you were president, you were in the white house. how would you approach the israel palestine crisis right now? what you see, i'm deeply concerned about trying to find a space for morality and spirituality and political courage in the world of overwhelming bulk parity and beach geology. and so i'm running to be head of the

american empire in order to dismantle the american empire. america should be a dignified and decent nation among nations and not an empire. this other nations deferred to. so what we have in the middle east right now, and especially in gosh with my precious palestinian brothers and sisters, we've got a level of psychic spiritual military, physical violence that is just beyond description. and that's usually the sign of an empire in deep decay and decline and dissolution in this integration. because when you get a shift from one imperial sensor at once, the americans being the center, you usually get certain forms of intense, intense file, of like the genocide gives us brothers and sisters. the price of june 1940 in the early forty's, that was a sign of the decline in the case of the european empire,

then a new euro was in the making. in that new year it produced the soviet empire and the united states. the bible right now, god in many ways is a pivotal moment because there's a sign of the lack of credibility. the lack of legitimacy of a world has been dominated by the us empire. and i speaking as one who comes out of the files of the american imperial beast. that is to say, black people like indigenous people, have been the under side of the american empire, deeply committed to morality and spirituality telling the truth about the american empire. and it's i like satellite countries like user it, keep me track of the crimes against humanity, keeping track of the war crimes keeping track of the crime of genocide. and so to be in a campaign, which is nothing but a moment and

a movement of the people that keep in mind, my dear brother, 1953 were black folks who brought the united states to the united nations and said, we charge genocide. that was a great paul ropes, that was a great william paterson. that was a great w. b. dubois, these are towering figures in the history of the american empire. but anti imperialist critical of the empire in is various forms of domination in deep relation. so for me, it could not be a choice to be in solidarity with any people who have been victimized by the us empire. it could be over going bought them all over going iraq or with roy panama. we've got a long history of us imperial interventions in the world, haiti, and so forth, and so on, killing limone, but in the congo. well, right now we have israel and the united states is

a wind in what and it may blink of an execution of the crime of genocide. and so i run as a presidential candidate and being very honest and say, joe biden, you're criminal, you are a lady blake, the crime of genocide. comalla harris lloyd austin, blanket sullivan, kirby, i speak to you as american citizen to american citizen, but also as a jesus loving free black man who's trying to find the moral and spiritual space of the world over. well, make beastie ality in ball bear and t. that's what i see in gaza corneo, i want to play a clip for you of president biden, talking about a $100000000000.00 aid package that he's wanted to direct military support to ukraine to is real and to taiwan. let's listen for

a moment. and when we see use the money allocated by congress, we use it to replenish our own stores, our own stockpiles, with new equipment coming to the face that defends america, and is made in america patron missiles for air defense batteries made in arizona. artillery shells manufactured in 12 states across the country and pennsylvania, ohio, texas. this is so much more now he's talking about the economics of war and the jobs that are connected to the bombs that are going to israel to drop and gaza. i mean, your thoughts? well, you can just see how morally bankrupt and he is, he's trying to appeal to my fellow citizens in terms of their economic interests, and not among them were about more principal or ethical integrity or the damage done to precious human beings in those parts of the world, it's another,

it's an example of trying to somehow hide and conceal the ugliness the under side of imperial policy by appealing to people's economic interest at home. we already know of it and we really want to tell the full story. at this point is $0.62. what. ready the dollar that goes to the military, industrial complex united states is not be clear in a more based on its congress since world war 2, every military incursion has been proceeding out of the executive order without congressional approval. and that's been democrats, republicans across the board, but that's what empires do like the roman empire, like the autumn on in black. we can go and i know the military overreach of broad corruption of the lead in america. that's the case of both parties, citizens feeling desperate citizens feeling. yeah. but that helpless, hopeless, and usually to come to some neo fascist 5 by 4 in this case, the case of,

of donald trump. but also feeling is that the only alternative that neo fascist pfeifer is a war criminals in the democratic party. who after this they want to save the soul of a nation and yet enabled genocide to act as if they want to defend democracy and are anti democratic within their own party, anti democratic in terms of those bombs that they failed that are dropped on children. what does it now? $13000.00 price was precious children and those posted in children have exactly the same value as much exactly the same value as white children or chinese children. you ronnie and children. and so for, that's the entity in a, of

a freedom fighting project that tries to provide some moral and spiritual space where political courage can be enacted to raise our voices. and we keep track of the in describable barrett, pn beastie ality. and that's what we're seeing right on our screen every day. and i think that for this channel these you will continue using america, the court with media as turned away from the beach, the bulk barely, every once in a while, there's a story now on gaza as if there's not an ongoing genocide. what kind of a country is america that is worse and imperial project concern with nero? economic interest and concern with geo political expansion. what is america at his best mom does it? can't. jim edwards, a rabbi, abraham, joshua hatcher dorothy day, martin luther king malcolm x. we can go on and on,

and i'm trying to make sure that america would try to stay in contact with the best of itself. well, let me ask you something that may be happening in america right now. is it younger vote or is seem to be turned into the crisis in gaza that in their support for the democratic party and for joe biden has declined? i don't know if they're going to rush to donald trump. they may run to a 3rd party. they may want to you, but i'm interested in the fact that they are paying attention and you feel that this is the moment where many of those people are going to read jets and both of the major parties and go elsewhere. oh, that's it. that's very true. my dear brother, i mean we shall see, but i do feel that. and as you know, i do 4 or 5 events every day and i've done over 500 and some interviews is i can pick up the guy so i can. so pick up the spirit of the empire and spirit of the nation. and young people are tired of the lives that hide the crimes in this is

true a month, a wonderful young jewish brothers and sisters look at is not now do as voices for peace. and even many us voices beyond those organizations. they're tired of the lives and primes that have been lives total and the crimes here and they've been told to them by their parents and their grand parents. and so for we're seeing is more and more a month every day. young, black, brown, indigenous ages, young people. and so very much like $196.00 days were both in the american empire linked to crimes in vietnam. people are awakening. but as a waking, they go far beyond a narrow talk about diversity, equity, and inclusion, which is part of the right wing a tool kit, to attack progressives in the united states. but we're not talking about diversity equity and included in any narrow since we're talking about troops. and the

condition of truth is to allow stuff me to speak. we're talking about justice and justice is what love looks like in public in what can this feels like in fluoride? it is a human affair, much deeper than skin pigmentation, but deeply religious identity, much deeper than national affiliation. that's why my solidarity with my palestinian bonuses as in dog. i do then as a priest, just as a black man, as a citizen of the us into a republic. why? because the humanity always cuts a deeper it has said on many occasions that there were a palestinian occupation of palestinian prime of genocide against jews. i would be this holiday with my jewish brothers and sisters. it is a moral and spiritual issue and that's crucial. they will have black people, latrene white people, the way why people have treated black

b. i would be as solid daddy with my vanilla brothers and sisters. it's a moral and spiritual issue. well, right now, who is being subjugated? who's being degraded? who is humanity? a baby thoroughly call into question who was being viewed as yesterday or less than human treat. it is not in the, the zip. the depths of all of those precious babies of children and women and men can be get tossed aside and you get some kind of reflection on narrow economic calculation of a joe. but please please i have no patience for that. i read and clicked the west and shallow about the church and the black panther party shake me as a teenager, and i will be true onto that. i'll be faithful on the death trying to tell the truth. it'd be a deep solidarity with any people who lo, press, let alone those undergoing such a vicious genocidal attack right now. you know, there is a movement right now, i think in terms of the upcoming election to frame this that you,

robert f. kennedy junior, jill stein, if you run, you could deliver the presidency to donald trump because joe biden does much worse if you're all in that. is that a fair assessment? the very notion of be cast as a swindler is part and parcel of the ways in which we have such a truncated narrative in place of out american politics. you see no politician urns any sector of citizens result. he's got to earn it. when people vote for me, they're voting for me, it will for buying the vote for buying nichols, trump that goes to truck neither one of those old that both people are thinking and voting on their own. now i say this when it comes to my precious error happened, most of them brothers and sisters, that the democratic party looked upon them as if they're just an interest group. they're just, they're, they're only concerned with

a calculation of their own interest. and they don't understand that you've got a democratic party going in to the muslim communities, say, well vote for us because of our because of our economic policy it overlooked the fact that we as a democratic party have enable genocide and the killing of your mothers. and fathers in grandmother the grandfather and you're going to imagine most of them buttons us especially i've kind of thing it as a, do you the human eyes, us and that way that we become just a, a minor entity to be manipulated in regard to your many macro valley and politics. we're talking about a mazda is we're talking about our fathers. we talk about a hot spot, funk goals. we're talking about a mouse, a hospitals, our health system. we're talking about our schools with what our civic struction is, is not somebody left your political issue. this cuts very,

very deep. and that's the way it ought to be. cuz this is bobby on politics. when you're talking about empires, dissolving, we're talking about crimes of humanity when you're talking about crimes of just being and that, that right back again, the issues of morality and spirituality, not narrow issues of michael valley politics. and these have the calculations of what kind of interest we haven't. how does it connect to our interest? that's what the democratic party does not understand. that's what the republican party does not understand. that's what my candidacy i think tries to bring to my doctor west. if you were speaking now and you are speaking this time because we're watched, are there to both palestinians in the middle of this crisis. and to is riley's watching, what advice and counsel would you give them about their future that they should here? i would say 1st, we must never ever look at the palestinian community, or it is really community as moma listing and homework genie's that you're looking

at human beings in both community. and there are human beings in both of those communities who do understand the viciousness and ugliness of the crime of genocide . and i'm not just off talking about the loan chomsky that america already getting and leaves in israel. there's a whole way is really to understand what the crime of genocide is and they refuse to deny is not reflected in that government is not reflected even in their majority vote at the goodness it. same is true with palestinians, and people look at ballast and you want to see a whole left for a very rich, magnificently creative human beings. you shouldn't look and see pallets, and when you look at 1000 shouldn't see only one group people. people come, it may as well, you must be pro him. ok as well. i'm pro humanity, i'm pro palestinian. i'm pro humanity. yeah. i'm pro,

is really in the sense that any of those persons in those communities who are choosing freedom for choosing a quality. i'm is solid directly with the gears war crimes. no matter who commits it, it could be the terrorism of the idea. it could be the war crimes of how much it could be to. it could be the terrorism of the u. s. army or the russian army of ukrainian army. it's a moral issue because it's very important that we understand that there's possible solidarity that cut across post in communities and is really community in jews and palestinians. not only must, but they will learn how to live together. and let's be very honest about this. but the 2 state solution is the, is really settler colonial expansion. msm has under cut the 2 state solution.

it is not feasible, it is not working right now. they're the one state and is a state of apartheid and ethnic cleansing with the crime of genocide taking place. that's one state that's from the river to the sea in is, is really imperial for. and what's the alternative, either one state which is secular. what is the quality there must be palo spinning and dignity and power has been in the quality just as there must be jewish security and your safety. there must never ever, ever be an now lation of genocide of either palestinians boys raises reyland or palestinian which means what the either there's one state which is secular or this one state was 2 nations. very much like switzerland also we can explore possibilities. but the notion of a to a state now is nothing, but a mirage is a subterfuge. it's a refusal to engage in the 700 of thousands us settlers who have under cut the

possibility of a 2 state solution. so when you hear that reference from by then you are p and lead as you can arrest, be a sure they still are looking for is, is really dominated situation. and they will never be precious. jewel, security and safety predicated on the domination of pressures, palestinians, it will not more. and let me ask you finally, i'm interested in domestic blow back, though when you talk about the moral collapse inside, what is blow back look like. as you framed it domestically, most of my fellow citizens don't even look at america that in but when i use that language, they think that i'm you know, fine and really sky little the crack pipe or something like that. no, no, no, no, no, we not just a democratic experiment, but some deficits ask our prices, indigenous peoples as an american country, as the rest of the world,

$800.00 military units around the world in over a 100 countries and over spec, special operations in over a $142.00 country to own a $193.00, cuz then the united nations. so the blow back internally as what denial lies. crimes hidden and concealed. that's why you let us other than jail god bless is. so he revealed the crime america couldn't take it so much. what commitment the journalistic for you to know those lies and probably will not live ever to brush the earth will arise again precisely because people will struggle. people will tell the truth, people live, people will die, but sooner or later, the truth will surface check is come home to roost, your re what? yes. so, and so internally, the internal d k. the distrust the power lower the attempt to make america great.

again, that's already a sign of d. b k in decline is symptomatic of the disintegration. so america is not great now . well, when was it great when it was really in the driver seat of the world and we were the uncontested imperial power could do anything with no accountability and no answer ability like drugs itself, say anything, do anything with no accountability. that's exactly what is real. doing right now, say anything, doing anything with hardly any accountability, only with the exception. now of course, a voice is around the world and south africa that i'm very, i'm in very deep solid there do with south african me of the country, bringing this crime of genocide to the international court of justice. well, unfortunately, we need to live, leave it there, presidential candidate and renown. american philosopher, doctor cornell, west, thank you so much for joining us. a thank you, my brother, who is

a stella. so what's the bottom line? women and children are being killed in gaza at staggering scale. innocent man waving white flags and standing in and in the open and obviously on arm seeking to know the circumstances of their loved ones are murdered by his release snipers. you're not going to see this on traditional tv, but it's on tick tock. it's on social media everywhere. no one can pretend anymore that israel's war is just about hunting down and killing him off commanders and participants in the october 7th attacked by him. austin, israel. the world has seen this before. many times. i can't breathe, george void, said americans, exhausted from the systematic discrimination and harassment and killings. a black man had to go on a campaign saying, black lives matter. what is that even mean? it means that many felt as if one set of lives mattered more than others in palestine today, especially in gaza. we're seeing the dominant power behaviors. if the lies administering folks, men, women, and children simply don't matter. we hear is really leaders reference palestinians

as animals. this is outrageous and my guest to day cornell west is shining, a light on the principle that humanity is. everyone's no one is less valuable than the other. i mean, just as we see, has to stop. the palestinians can't read how sydney allies matter. and at the bottom line, the active which is designed to help young minds come to terms with children with very different experiences, but also suffering some degree of trauma gun good children, such as 12 year old carrillo struggled to talk about their experiences. we would take it into buses. he tells us to russia where we stayed for a bit over a month. ukraine estimates about 20000 children have been full simply relocated to russia, despite repeated efforts and international mediation. only about $400.00 children

have been with us for now the focus is on reclaiming ukrainian. children helping them recover in depth analysis of the today's headlines. how does south africa from its accusations of genocide, in this case, many genocide in hold across the scholars including his ravings con, confirm that this is a textbook genocide, frank assessments politicians need to be able to run for office without fear of a single jail term informed opinions when the us, since it's well shifted to the right, see it's not receive task protection etc. that's complication inside story. on al jazeera, the 1st genocide that we see in real time, it's the victims themselves. there's a disconnect between what we are witnessing on social media versus what we're seeing on mainstream. it is always an attempt to frame at 2 sides of them, but there is no 2 sides to this. the western media does have

a western bias who understand what they are looking to see out and raise. the listening post covers how the news is covered. the or the

palestinians dig through the rubble in search. the survivors afternoon is really a strike hit several civilian homes in the rough. the overnight the i'm sort of any, it's good to have you with us. this is elisha 0. live from bill. also coming up the us secretary of state says an agreement on gaza still a possibility. but israel's prime minister insists attacks on the strip will not stop escalating violence in pakistan as voting begins in the countries general

election. one police officer was killed at the polling station and the us admits to a drone striking, a rock that targeted in on group linked to a ron 3 people.
