musad agents, officers and contracts. israel's massacre palestinians continued, the latest figures, almost 9,00 murdered, including some 3700 children and 2200 women. iran's leader has said that muslim governments must insist on immediate end to the crimes, and also to block oil exports to the zionist regime, while the irani foren minister has said that israel and the us will have to prepare for a harsh response if the gaza bloodched continues. more and more, this war is coming a cost for tel aviv, while israel conducts this ground operations inside of gaza. israelly prime minister netan yahu is taking a beating for not caring enough for the captive. this is while the war has

widened regionally involving hizballah a limited scale and yemen, while miss missiles from syria have been fired at israel sporadically. to make sense of it all, let me introduce our guests. richard meturst, journalist and commentator joins us from viena. all so joining us is bill dorus, was an anti-war activist organizer from new york. welcome to you both, richard metherst. let me start with you, and i like to. start up with what the iran's leader has said, uh, the people in gaza, he said have stirred the human conscience with their patience, and he said even in western countries, mentioning england, and france, and states across the us, he said people have come out in huge numbers and they've chanted slogans against israel and the us government, um, and he said that their reputations have been ruined, how much of an impact have these countries that are so strong in their support for israel suffered in their global standing, do you think? hi, thanks for having me on. i, i

think um, the the words of iran's leader are very important, because we we have a problem here where people in england, people in the west are coming out in their hundreds of thousands and saying, we don't want war in gaza, we want you to stop arming israel, and the governments don't listen, they they, you know, they do not represent their people in in any aspect, and you, you know, you think this is, this is normal, because it is the west that created israel and bankral israel, but the problem is that the... arab countries is doing it too uh jordan only today, after you, almost a month of israel bombing gaza, only today finally recalled its ambassador, and even that is not enough, uh, you, we have latin american countries, uh, bolivia cut ties, chile and colombia were cold ambassados, these latin american countries are doing more than some arab countries, you know, so uh, i, i think that their global standing is suffering lot, and their global standing of these western countries is suffering equally, but but if the arab countries don't wake up, and i'm talking especially about... the kingdoms in the

persian gulf if they don't wake up and do something uh you know they are really going to suffer and someone like kier starmer who's the labor leader in england you know he when it was ukraine he had no problem calling putin a war criminal now when it comes to netanyahu you know he says it's not his his place to decide who's a war criminal i mean this is this is hypocrisy and double standards and you know it's such sad state of affairs that we can choose in england between the tories and tories light and the problem is they're all zionists and they always have been. the these people do not represent anyone in england and the protests that are coming this, this saturday and next saturday are going to be even larger and they will hit 1 million if not more. all right, bill doris in terms of the the activism in you, uh, the iran's leader has also, okay, well richard, let me ask you about another statement from iran's leader, which uh kind of applies to how you say the persian golf uh, arab countries can do more. and he has said that

uh muslim governments overall must block the export of oil and other essentials to what he called design regime. you know they can they can obviously do that and uh you know this has the air and the uh feel of the bds movements uh in a sense but a much larger scale that requires obviously the um realization and then the action uh of uh countries regionally in terms of the oil perhaps and then internationally in terms of not buying goods made in israel do you think that the will... is there? it it is not there unfortunately, and the thing is that you, we cannot just uh leave all of the responsibility and shoulder the responsibility on people coming out in london, it is the arab countries uh, especially those with gas and oil, that should be shouldering the main responsibility, not only as arabs, but also as muslims, they needs to be solidarity, there needs to be respect for other human beings, the you know, there was a time when these countries were one arab country and

they do have a common tongue and a common history and a common religion and a common culture, but where is the respect for that? egypt could close and shut the swez canal right now and stop this war. saudi arabia could shut down oil exports for just a week and stop this war right now. they are not doing this. to me, this is a gross betray not just to fellow human beings, but to fellow arabs and fellow muslims. it is, it is truly uh hurtful uh and i can't imagine what people in gaza feel. they they the desperation just looking around and thinking, where are uh, our fellow arabs and muslims, where are they? uh, it's it's not coming from these gulf kingdoms, the only ones that are really doing something are the access of resistance. yemen are firing ballistic missiles all the way from 1,500 kilometers uh and the they haven't even had time to rebuild the country. syria is the same thing, syria is barely standing because of this war for 10 years has been waiged by the west and it's still trying to help, you know iran, syria, the under sanctions, they're still trying to help, and

i think that is very admirable thing and it's an example for the rest of the region and the rest of the world to follow. all right, i've picked one more statement by iran's leader, which i'll come back to that later, i'd like to now. reflect on what iran's foreign minister uh has said uh today, he has warned against israel's relentless onslot and he has said that both tel aviv and washington will have to be prepared for a harsh response if the brutalities continue. this kind of reminds me of the way that hamas came out time and again warning israel when the alasa mask descecration was taking place when they did those incursions and they killed the palestinians when they detained. the palestinians, they kept issuing warning after warning after warning. iran has issued number of warnings now, and this one saying that uh, you know, uh, you better watch out, because you have to prepare for a harsh response. do you think that israel needs to be ready for that? israel are not ready for anything, uh,

we we saw how hamas, which are not not just under sanctions, they're under siege, uh, you know, which are basically the same thing, but it's even even worse in gaza, that look what they were able to do nevertheless. hamas infrastructure is completely intact, the the tunnels are intact, their firepower, the their strategy and tactics are intacked. israel have been trying every day secretly to get into ghaza and they are failing a daily basis and that is why they haven't quote you announced this ground invasion, the because they keep failing, they cannot get in, so can you imagine what lebanon, what hazballah have prepared for the israelis, what syria and iraq, the hash shaw have prepared for the israelis never. what iran has prepared, iran has had these missiles for 30 years that can already reach tel aviv, so you know, and yemen also, as i said that is already reaching the you know the occupied palestinian territories, i mean yesterday the israelis failed to shoot down one of those yemeni missiles and they they didn't say where it landed, which gives us an indication

of how embarrassing this is that yemen were able to hit them all the way from you, 1,500 kilometers, and cause casualties. the thing is that also hazballah are already involved in this war, you know, they are... they have stretched israeli forces thin and they are pounding israel's towers, their infrared sensors, their electronic surveillance and radar equipment every day, they are blinding the israelis in the north, so this is already putting pressure on them, and not to mention in in syria and iraq, the you know the assad base in iraq is being hit regularly by the resistance, uh, konoko oil fields, omar oil fields, shadadi, these are all being hit in syria a regular basis, 30 times already since october 7th, this is already a... war, it's always been a regional war, and and the israelis and americans are are taking such beating in iraq and syria and from yemen and and lebanon, that they they don't even mention them, which i find very bizarre, because you would think they would call out yemen, they they just stay silent and keep the focus on hamas, because of course

everybody's looking at what they're doing to gaza, and the israelis are so embarrassed by what is happening to them on these other fronts, they won't even bring them up or mention them. all right, bill doris joins us now uh and activist organizer from new york bill dorus, i need to address this question to you, which i asked my my guest previously, that is uh, the and that's because of your as an activist, i think that this applies to you to get your idea on, and that's the sanction, that iran's leader has asked the muslim governments to do when it comes to the export of oil, and also other essentials to the designist regime as he has called it, now this reminds me the bds movements uh where it was activist related or active. related, do you foresee this being something that's going to be set in motion? do you forsee or do you give it any hope of actually becoming reality, and what can be done in order for this to spread, especially a larger scale when it comes to governments and uh perhaps applying that as a law? well, it is

something, first thank you for having me and and complements to press tv on it excellent coverage of of of the horror that's happening right now. which is the responsibility of the united states that of the regime in tel aviv, regime in tel aviv, and what you say, is something the people of the world. have to fight for, i mean the united states, the war, the genocide against the palestinian people, a country, the size of of of of the racist state of israel would not be able to perpetuate this without the endless supply of of dollars and arms, from the united states, israel does not make planes, most of the bombs, missiles, they're all being here and supplied for free to the zionist regime, the genes. regime, it's it's necessary for those countries who do uh say they stand in

solidarity with palestine to put their money where their mouth is, it's not even so much the oil as the money, the tremendous amount of of investment and economic relations that exist, that the uh israeli regime has with many countries, including the arab and muslim world, chevron, which steals the... natural gas from off the coast of occupied palestine also operates in saudi arabia, city bank, which uh finances uh israel's purchases, because israel spends its arms money to gets from the united states so fast that it has to city bank finances a difference between what they spent already before the congress can allocate some more uh and they also operate in in uh many countries, there was a time when in the time of god. there was a time when there was a boycott not only on uh

israeli products but on corporations that did business with israel, country should not, i remember after the iranian revolution in in 1979 one of the first actions of the new of the islamic republic was to cancel arm sales because the shaw would buy so many arms from the united states, why should countries be buying arms, planes and so on from the very corporations of supply. uh playings to the israeli war machines all right uh around the world thank god and we especially need to do it here because here is the will source of the problem. the um humanitarian aspect of this when you think it can't get any worse it does uh richard methurs and and and i'm curious as to uh the way that israel uh is being blamed for this but we know that the us is complicit also not only in terms of the arms uh guess assistance but also in terms of the planning, um, but a humanitarian level, i'm just trying to understand uh the us

thinking here, we're looking at the tons of bombs that have been dropped, which is being uh compared to hiroshima, and in terms of the number of people that are being killed. richard methers, we also have this us politician uh granted he's maybe a bit on the extreme side, lindsay graham, but he has said an interview that there's no limits to the number of civilians that it's justifiable for israel to kill in in this. war which uh israel claims to be on hamas, is this the type of thinking that is really prevalent when it comes to us politicians, richard metherst? i mean, lindsay graham is neoconservative gool, so you know i i expect nothing less coming out of his mouth, he is uh, you know, he's more than happy to see everybody from syria, from palestine, from iran, dying just so he can get his way, and and the corporations that my fellow guest mentioned can get their way, because he is a pr agent for them, um, i mean, this this thing. thinking is really really disgusting and the new york times reported that the israels in meetings with their american

counterparts they told them that you know the west should shut up about what's happening in gaza because uh during world war ii the united states dropped nuclear bombs on on hiroshima and nagasaki in august 1945 and then you know the royal air force uh bumed dresdan uh which some argue was even worse than than hiroshima um you know i i i don't think that these are acceptable uh arguments, because since then uh, it has been made very clear that these things were wrong, uh, you know, there was no need to bomb hirushima, nagasaki, that was just a show a force for the soviets, and and this this hell that's unleashed on people in dresden, um, you know, you can't just use those as arguments to butcher people in gaza, people in gaza are not nazis and they're not imperial japan, the these are civilians, uh, this is their land, they have not gone out and attacked anyone, they are being attacked, they are being besieged. they are being occupied since 75 years, so you know this argument is ridiculous and i don't understand how the americans uh, you know, it's one thing to

listen to the israelies, but it's another thing to say, okay, we'll keep supporting you, um, you know, israel has wanted to drag america, to drag the united states, into a regional war, for decades, they've been trying this stuff, and it it looks like they might be getting their way, but i think they've bitten off more than they can chew, because israel does not have what it takes even penetrate gaza, never mind, take on hizballah and take on iran. and the hash shaabi in syria and yemen, this is lunacy, it's the resistance that has gotten stronger, not israel, and so they have miscalculated very, very, very deeply and greatly, no matter how much they bound people in gaza, the... moving anywhere and we should remember that besides the corporations that finance uh uh israel's butchering of gazons, israel and in the united states have been planning to build a canal on gaza, the bengorion canal to rival the swez canal, they've been trying this since the 1960s to plan it, and they wanted to put nuclear bombs in the negev desert, this is a classified document from 1963, so we should remember that they have

this economic incentive in mind, and they're openly telling cc, the egyptian president, we'll pay you to take the gazans, we will cancel and wipe your debt clean if you take the gazans uh gazans are not going anywhere, israel thinks that if they keep buming it they can frighten gazans into leaving, that's not happening, and my fellow guess also correctly mentioned the gas that chevron is stealing in the mediterranean. this is so important because in the last three days, israel is handed out 12 licenses to companies, how are they extracting gas if they're on thought this is an existential threat for these taking gas out of the mediterranean, the the gas from palisten. lebanon and syria for a long, long time now, the levithan basin is is is such rich quantity of gas, that it it's just a dream come true, and europe needs that gas because they sanctioned iran and they sanctioned russia and blew up northstream, so israel is trying to hurry up and deliver its promises, but it's not going to happen. well, uh, do you agree bill doris with our guess there that perhaps israel is biting more than

ikachu when it wants uh this to be a regional think, putting the us into a war uh most likely. to uh have iran one of its central, i guess attractions for this war? well, what linsey graham says, the pentagon brass and and the corporate ruling class behind them think, they support the eradication, the attempted, the attempt of the israeli racist regime to eradicate the people of palestine, they basically israel has long been part of a protection racket that the united states runs in that part. the world, an enforcer uh, whereby countries pay tribute to the united states and they they uh, which iran no longer does since the shab was overthrown, and and that's why iran is a us target, and they they depend on that flow of wealth, and uh, they uh, war is central to the to the position of

the the obselescent position of wall street and the world economy, and like a gangster, what they have is their rep. they got to show they can kill and destroy and uh and people have to be afraid of them because they have nothing else to offer, but of course all this this endless supply of arms and and and money to the to the uh to israel which is really just a component of the us war machine is is is stolen is stolen from people here, it's stolen they they'd rather they'd rather bomb people, bomb people are already homeless in gaza and make them homeless again then build build build housing for the for the for them. hundreds of thousands of homeless in this city, there's 119,000 children in the us new york city school system uh, but the the uh military, we basically have a military regime in this country and a corporate ruling class behind it, they would do anything rather than spend money on human need, any excuse, and israel is an excuse, they and and they and

the us wants to assist uh israel militarily, as you have mentioned to the degree that it is, but it doesn't... want to uh um come and promote a ceasfire um of course israel also says that a ceasefire would mean that we're uh that means it's a defeat for us in in front of hamas now i'm trying to understand the logic over here where the root of the problem has to be the fact that occupation needs to be targeted that the partide policy of israel is the problem those are the types of things that need to be targeted uh but yet the us is going the military. route, why is it that the focus by the us is not on those things, which is really at the source of the problem? because the the us uh had has nothing uh to offer the world, all they they depend on is military force is military power to keep their to maintain their position in the world economy, and that that depends on

destruction, that depends on destruction, they cannot allow a strong africa, a strong asia, a strong uh arab world, strong muslim world uh and uh they uh the entire economy depends right now on on not just on the on the production of bombs and weapons of mass destruction and their use, but on uh on suppressing uh the economic development around the world. all right, thank you for that, bill doris, antiwar activist organizer from new york, and richard metters, a pleasure, journalist and commentator from vienna. thank you. you both with that we come to an end for this edition of the spotlight fromway and the tire team, miss goodbye.

تقول انا مش نازلمه يا شباب الله

unyielding resolve, look into the tumoltuous life of yaster arafat, the palestinian leader who dared sit at the negotiation table with

israel only to face broker. in promises and shattered dreams, witness his lifetime tour from fighter to a diplomat, and again from a diplomat to fighter to save palestine. this is story of sacrifice, betrayal, and unbreakable spirit of a leader who fought against all odds.

impressive headlines: iran's leader strongly condemns israel's atrocities against palestinians calling for a halt to exports of oil and other essentials to the regime. a un committee strongly condemns israel's killing of children and gaza saying. there are no winners in a war where thousands of children are killed, and yemeny army hit several targets inside israel with drones saying it will continue its operations like this until regime's aggression against gaza stops.
