more and more innocent women and children losing their lives in gaza, 10 days into the israeli onslot, some hospitals of the stop operation, and the rest are about to stop functioning thanks to an all-out bloccade of the territory. meantime rallies are being held all across the world, demanding an end to the israeli war crimes against palestinians, while western claimants of human rights are standing id by and even supporting the israeli regime. the leader of iran's islamic revolution has won. regime
6:03 am
against continuing its genocide of gaza. wants the regime to face trial for his crimes against palestinians. welcome to the spotlight. i'm your host najafi. let's get started with this episode. let me introduce our guests. okay, we have abbas montagan activist, the organizer and podcaster from oakland, and other author and political activists joining us from montreal. welcome to the show, both gentlemen. now beginning with abbas iran's leader khamani is urging an immediate halt to israely bombardments of gaza and you've been witnessing what's been going on. just an hour ago we had this big hospital explosion and more than 500 people just perished in a gifey. so the question is.
6:04 am
is what mechanism is needed for secession of uh israeli hostilities given that the telaviv regime uh does not observe any humanitarian law, it's you know nothing applies to it, what can be done? hey, well thank you for having me, well first and foremost we must understand that this zionist regime has no morality, it is a complete immoral regime that has no historical uh reason to exist, no legal reason to exist. its existence in fact is in violation of international law, so what can be done is the question, what can be done is humanity deciding to come together for the issue of palestinians, uh, power must be developed, and uh, the zionist regime must know that there is a response, there is a consequence, uh, there also must be a international intervention from the united nations standpoint, what good is international law, if the united nations decides to sit by idly and not do anything, we know that nazi germany or... persecuted uh
6:05 am
in international courts, so the zionist regime also must be taken uh to international courts and be held responsible in a international tribunal because what is happening right now is genocide uh and and we must stop this genocide in this current moment of history, this genocide uh must be stopped and it will take people who believe in humanity, it will take people who believe in the axis of resistance to support the axis access of resistance and to support the cause the liberation of palestinians. let me turn to montreal ev what can be done, truth is really uh needed cuz you know people in gaza are losing their lives, 15, 16 loss of life and you know in a in a minute, i believe when i was to talking to our correspondent uh was their life for us in front of hospital there, and uh, this is happening, and there are people, they're human beings, losing their lives, and the world is just standing by watching, and uh, about talked about un, and
6:06 am
there are also some human rights activists, they can, they couldn't do anything, you see what russia proposed, and it was voted down, several abstentions, only five pieces, and the rest, so nothing happened, so that's why i'm asking you what can be done, because the international community, the international organizations do not seem to be able to do anything. well, i, i don't think the world is just standing by, i think that the us, world leaders, yeah, us, canadian government are encouraging it, i mean, biden is going to israel tomorrow to encourage it, i mean that's the point, that canadian, canada's foreign minister was there on friday to encourage it, blincon was there uh, twice in a couple days to green light all this, this is the canadian government's green lighting it, this is the they're stoking it, um, so you know canadian government officials won't even recognize when asked repeatedly by many different forms in the house of commons, by
6:07 am
journalists, by activists, do you criticize, you've condemned hamas, but do you criticize israel's violations, of international? they just they won't answer, they won't say, and it's because they're encouraging it, so you know, what can the world do? um, well, everyone living in those countries where the politicians are encouraging israel to uh, pursue its sige and bombing and destruction of gaza, we can demand our government, stop encouraging it, and there are many, many things that can be done logistically uh "the first thing is to retorically stop encouraging it, the second thing is start bringing in you know vote for un resolutions, bringing, have an arms embargo, there's there's innumeral different ways in which canada supports these policies, um, and we can we can stop doing that, so so i think
6:08 am
that you know the previous speaker talked about power, obviously this is a question of power, organization, and is is building groups, people, consciousness uh to take action and those actions have to be uh uh forceful, have to be protest, they have to be this, blocking uh events, occupying the offices of politicians, ministers, going to press conferences and disrupting press conferences, you obviously signing petitions, all the you, across the board of the different forms of of activism that we all know, is what changes things historically, um, they have to be done, and and unfortunately for the people. in gaza, they have to be done very quickly and a mass scale immediately to uh end these horrors that we are uh we are seeing, yeah ab you was talking about people world leaders, they are doing something, i just what i meant was just
6:09 am
they're not doing anything to help the palestinians, yes, they are simply provoking and emboldening the televiv regime to commit more crimes, that's true, now boss, well people are awake, maybe thanks to social media. things to people like you and i, and they know what's happening, they know what the suffering palestinians are going through, but uh, is this enough, to, will they be able to, i mean, is this the right way, should they keep making their voices heard and try to push their governments and officials there, who uh, simply close their eyes in the realities as if palestinians do not exist, as if they are not human beings, when this is a band to deprive nation of their basic rights for survival, "this is banned internationally, it's in violation of international law, okay, and now we have four layen, the top eu official, saying talking about this in terms of for ukrainians, okay, what about palestinians? well, of course, you know, the west will get behind ukraine,
6:10 am
because uh, ukraine is in the interest of pan-europeanism, right, we understand that the top dog of pan-europeanism, the top dog of nato is united states of america, so of course uh, the inter the so-called international leaders will get behind supporting ukraine, but they will not get behind palestine, because uh palestine is cause of the oppressed, right? the world leaders are oppressing palestinians, the world leaders are behind pan-europeans. they're behind the united states of america and the oppression uh of palestinians uh we understand that israel itself is settler colony just like america and israel cannot exist without the setter colony of america supporting it militarily, politically, economically and socially right, it is all out war against the palestinians, it's all out war against muslims right, so what can we do, here i'm in alcan california, occupied california, home of the black panther party, the black panther party, they rose up uh for national liberation. of fighting back againstler colonialism, so if you believe in freedom, if you believe in independence and if you believe in humanity, we must fight
6:11 am
here in the united states of america, we must organize here in the united states of america, we must take to the streets and masses in the united states of america, because we understand that imperialism itself is like an octopus, it has its tentacles all over the world, it has its tentacles in palestine, it has its tentacles in west asia, that has its tentacles uh in africa, right uh, but if we only cut off the tentacles, another tentacle is a allowed to grow, so we must hear inside of the belly of the beast, the united states of america, a land that was founded on the inslightment of africans and the genocide of indigenous people, if we can uh free the land here in the united states of america, it will then have a significant blow, if not destroy us imperialism, so uh people living in the western world, people living in europe, if you are for humanity, if you are for the oppressed, we must struggle in our own lands, we must struggle in mass and organize uh to be able to overthrow. european and american control, because israel is a product, it is a product of pan
6:12 am
europeanism, it is a product uh of imperialism, it is a product of the west and the west continuing to try and subjugate uh the muslim world to the interest of the west, but today is the day where muslims rise up across the world, uh you've it's not only some world league special in the west, as we're talking about, it's also some uh western media, they're demonizing the palestinians and hamas fighters. uh you know with the stuff that they are uh posting online and uh as the leader of iran's islamic revolution said some of these settlers they're not normal average i mean civilians they are armed and they have been attacking palestinians and we have been reporting this special in the past year and then just look at look at the bbc the other day they were just talking about you know scenes of some destruction in israel the people being taken to hospital sirens being sounded in telaviven elsewhere. what about palestinians? i mean, how could you close your eyes to all that blood shit? you know, it's just like a
6:13 am
slaughter house, we're just watching it life just an hour ago. yeah, i mean in the canadian media, they're even trying to um, to criminalize protests against these genocidal policies. there's even one, one fairly prominent journalist to on twitter talked about uh, banning the palestinian flag uh, so they've framed it, they've the world's upside down, and it's the palestinians that are the that are the oppressors and the israelis that are being oppressed, according to a big swath of canadas media. to take a really concrete example, there, i've only seen one media outlet that's mentioned the 1500 uh palestinian fighters that uh were... killed inside israel that for the most part i think israeli forces have their have their bodies
6:14 am
um so when we hear about the palestinian death toll that 1500 is just omitted toll but there's an individual 22 year old from vancouver uh but probably at least 10,00 kilometers from israel he went to a private school and then after private school in vancouver he decided to join the israeli military he was killed in the... in the hamas operation, he has received many, many dozens of times more media attention than the 1500 uh palestinians, for the most part individuals who probably had never left their ghaza cage, that was the first time 3, more than 3,000 have lost their lives so far, yeah, and with this latest one, 3,500, yeah, specific 1500 who left 10 days ago, who went an operation and they left, and and they'... knew they probably were never going to return, they knew they were probably going to die. now i'm i'm not, i personally don't
6:15 am
justify all the actions that took place by the hamamas fighters, i don't think i don't think that you, i think the resistance is to be justified and to be even celebrated a macro level, in a micro level and there was lots of inhumane acts, but certainly those people, those 1500 palestinian fighters are bigger victims of this conflict than young man grew up in vancouver, went to private school and let alone the hundreds hospital, let alone the children, now the 1300 more palestinian children, there's more palestinian children that have been killed and there are israelis that have been killed in the last 10 days, let alone a broader so our media, our media just just just um takes the israeli perspective almost entirely and it flows in every different uh bit of the reporting and it's um it's really uh it's
6:16 am
very dehumanizing uh for palestinians yep and abbas uh iran has warned a on several occasions, that no one can stop muslims and resistance groups, this is what i said this morning, if israel continues with his crimes against palestinians, new fronts could open up in the region, is tel aviv, my question to you, is is telv insane enough not to head these warnings, what could happen in that case? yeah, well the zionist regime, they have no logic, they have no logic whatsoever. uh they are only concerned with death, they are only concerned with destruction and they are only concerned with enacting genocide against the palestinian people with enacting genocide uh against the larger islamic world right, only one regime named israel can bomb not only egypt, syria, lebanon and palestine in the same day and get away with it, right? but that day, that day is coming to an end,
6:17 am
because uh righteous muslims uh have been fighting back, have been developing axis of... resistance to resist settler colonialism, to resist uh the zionist imperialism, to resist uh the interests of the west, so only you know these people are fools, they have their shiny armor, they have their shiny toys, they have their shiny weapons, but what they do not have is heart, what they do not have uh is faith, and ultimately uh palestine will be free and the access of resistance is stronger than it ever has been for, so been before, so uh, while they might have weapons, while they might have these us warships, while they might have the the backing of pan-europeanism, we must also understand that the united states has lost a lot of wars, uh, israel has lost wars and the access of resistance today is stronger than it has ever been, right? so uh, the access of resistance will prevail, the islamic access of resistance will prevail, uh, palestine will be free, it's not a matter of question if but when, and uh, we have to
6:18 am
support the islamic resistance, it's uh, we have to support the resistance of humanity fighting against evil. right uh of fighting against genocide, because it's it really comes down to this, it's very simple, it's those fighting against genocide, that's what they're doing, they're fighting against genocide, fighting against the genocide of the zionist regime that they call israel, uh naiv, iran holds uh the us responsible for the crimes israels are committing against palestinians, the leadership saying that the that we have evidence that washington is formulating uh israel's current policy visas of the palestinians in gaza, and then this is: while washington's talking about uh you know self-restraint while the same time backing tel aviv and its war crimes against gasons so i want to ask you what the us is trying to achieve by pursuing such policy well i think that first of all uh the us is just the whole political structure within the
6:19 am
us is just totally different to israel uh the israel israel lobby plays a role on that, there you christian zionist movement, there's the whole settler colonial, there's israel is an outpost of imperialism, so the whole like ethos of a us politics is pro israel. um, concretely right now, i think that the arms industry always likes war, and there's been media reporting on that, i think there's it's it's it's realistic that that this is um an effort to get into a a war with iran, i think that is possible, i think it's possible that israel is really trying to uh to do that to to kind of push uh towards uh ramping things up with hezballah and syria and then ultimately to try to get the us to to go some form of war with iran, i think that is plausible, i'm not sure that that's what's
6:20 am
taking place, um, israel obviously, the idea that um they'... 20 to one or more bases, so if there's one israeli killed, there always has to be 20 palestinians killed, um, and that longstanding kind of type policy that israel's pursued, um, but does, how far the us is going to go with this, i don't know, but i think it's so far, what we've seen, with the you, they are very aggressive, okay, sorry, we have only one minute left, abuus, uh, tell us who's going to be the loser at the end of the day if the war spills over and regional countries get involved in one minute please, it is very simple, the zionist regime will be the loser, uh, pan-europeanism will be the loser, the united states of america uh will be the loser and palestinians uh will be the... victorious, the axis of resistance will be victorious. this is uh what is going to happen right? the people are organizes or are organized, the masses of muslims uh are
6:21 am
rising up in various different islamic countries around the world, people around the world who believe in humanity are rising up around the world. uh, so like i said before, it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when uh, and uh so my solidarity to all oppressed people around the world. okay, unfortunately we're out of time. thank you so much, abbas montagan active. organizer and podcaster in oakland, and ye vengler, author and political activist in montreal, and thank you for watching this episode of the spotlight, i've been your host and i'll see you next time. انا من جنانه سيدي السقلين صارخيد وعلى الزنا باصافعي الله اكبر الله اكبر الله اكبر الله

art is the title to describe the beauty or language used to translate its emotions and feelings resulting in aesthetic values interacting with all the people despite the different tongues and colors. everyone that sees the smoke envisages destroyed home with dead people and devastated lives. in its place, however, i try to bring this place back to life in my own way where i can change the image of destruction into an image that's more at ease to the sensitivities of people.
6:26 am
every artwork presents a valuable theme and truth about palestine in a beautiful and civilized way. i think the israelis oppose this as they search for any image that they can use to tarnish the palestinian community and depict palestinians as terrorists. there are currently 2 million people living in the gaza strip, of which 52% are children, 70 plus percent or also refugees, all packed into an area more densely populated than tokyo. from technical point of view, it is impossible to survive under discipline, simply, you don't have any water resources, there is no available water up hells and into razza by. fragmenting not only the
6:27 am
palestinians politically, but also geographically by fragmenting the fragmented. we now continue the journey, turning our attention to the issues of refugees, resources and what trump's assault on the palestinians has meant for the people of the gaza strip. من داخل مستشفى شهراء الاقصى نرصد لكم حاله الاجرام الاسرائيلي من داخل المستشفى العشرات من الاطفال والنساء يدخلن الى المستشفى بفعل الغارات الاسرائيليه المستمره المدنيين في المحافظه الوسطى يدخلنا بحالات خطيره جدا يدخلن المستشفى بحاله حرجه بفعل

you pressed to be headlines in israely earth strike in a hospital in gaza city kills hundreds of palestinians with hundreds others still trapped under the rubble. israel savage attack on the hospital in gaza draws vehument to international condom nations the iranian president slamming it as a war crime and hamas says israel attack on the hospital in gaza that killed at least 500 people proves the regime's brutality and extent of its sense of defeat.
