hello and welcome to the spotlight, i'm your host behrus najafi, the western bact is really genocide of palestinians in gaza still raging and claiming the lives of more and more innocent women and children, some 30,000 tons of explosives have been used against the beliger people in gaza in the past. month that's almost equal to two bombs. now yet the israeli heritage minister is saying the other day that he was dissatisfied with the war, and he advised the military to nuke gaza. he also wants the palestinians to either die or to go to ireland or to deserts and his words, and this has been regarded by many as a threat to regional and global peace and security, and also confirming the fact that tel aviv is in. position of nuclear weapons,

so this is the uh topic of our discussion in tonight's edition of the spotlight, let me introduce our guests. sarah wilkinson, the human rights activist joining us from midlands, uk, also with us isman journalists and politic analys in beirout. good to see you both, so beginning with the sarah, israel is believed to own the only nuclear arsenal in the middle east region, it said that tel aviv has some 400 nukes, nuclear warheads, we also had the former us president jimmy carter saying, speaking of 150 nukes at least, and just recently we had the comments of the israeli minister of heritage asking the military to make to actually nuke gaza, are these all not testament to? israel being in

position of nuclear weapons? well, absolutely, i think we always knew all along that the israelies had nuclear warheads. i think what's ironic about this particular statement, what this neighbor is amakai eli yahoo! is the um heritage minister? so when you think about heritage, that's about preservation and conservation, and it kind of i think um shows what sort of twisted mindset that the israeli government has that the heritage minister would talk about dropping an atomic bomb on the people of gaza and taking into consideration that they are 80 more times more powerful than um the hiroshima bomb and so such an explosion would um maybe not destroy all life as we know it but it would certainly change all life as we know it and it would take out other countries like cyprus, lebanon, syria, egypt, greece,

and possibly even georgia, which i believe is occupied by russia, so um, the sort of loose talk and the inciting talk about dropping an atomic bomb, it should really uh alarm the united nations, and and yet we haven't really heard a whisper from them, that the whole point of the united nations is to prevent civilians being harmed or you know, caught up in. war and and devastation and yet even on on hearing that an israeli minister thinks that it is a good option or what a possibility to drop nuclear warhead on civilians has not stirred the international community into action this if i ran the united nations this would be the point that i stepped in right now uh marwa what's the function of the un nuclear watchdog the iae i mean why should in israel come clean about

its nuclears, why shouldn't sign the nuclear non-provition treaty? the regime that's sticking the lifes of children and women targeting all over the place and god's everything and every living thing and every building, no matter if it's hospital or school, whatever, they are targets of israel, and such a regime is in position of nuclear weapons, no inspection, no ia reports, nothing. well, they are the safegard protected category, my friend, obviously, the iaa is only founded to press and pressure states like the islamic republic of iran or china, or the democratic people's republican of north korea, and what not? basically the states that uh say absolutely no to colonialism and occupation and uh capitalism or basically western capitalism for that matter, but the question is not about the iaea what they can or cannot do, they cannot do anything uh, neither that that can the un by the way, because the level of uh tnt and

and bombs that have fell so far on the heads the people of gaza uh has surpassed to bombs as we speak, and they already. performed the horrific committed against the people of gaza, but the the question is what kind of new weaponry that they might use that could resemble nuclear weapons, because they have tested them before and they have tried them before, not only in yemen but also, but usually they say that when you see such an enormous explosion like the one in yemen, for example in san in 2015, in march of 2015 when they dropped a new... neutron bombs, tactical nuclear weapons that they tried, basically they tested on the yemenese in 2015 on the mountain of fajaatan in san, it was horrific, horrific scene, before during and after the aftermath was absolutely terrifying, but it

was according to uh veterans today, huge report was published by veterans today using one of the former inspectors at the iaea and the author was - gordon duff if i'm not mistaken and they specifically say that they have sent the video and evidence of that attack on sana to many experts, physicists and nuclear bomb experts and they all unanimously agreed that this was tactical neutron bomb, but they couldn't publish the paper because that means career suicide uh for them, but it has been used before and on arabs in yemen and this is what i'm afraid of because said that aabomb would annihilate half of the population in west asia, but that they're not going to be using that there, if they want to use it, they might be, they might be going to using certain new type of nuclear bombs like the neutron tactical weapon that would wipe out certain controlled

areas and that's a plan that has been put in place since decades ago, because gaza actually is in the way of very important project for the zionist entity, which is the bengurion canal, which they are preparing to uh do and to construct to compete with the the canal of of egypt, the uh, forgot the name of the canal in egypt because i'm i'm focusing what's happening in excuse me, it doesn't matter, name does matter, go ahead with a comment, no it matters lot because because the way that they are going to be taking the route from the red sea into the mediterranean through the bengorian canal instead of the sues canal, the sues canal in egypt, it it means that they have to, they have to take out gaza, and if you look at the map of that that specific project, which basically surpasses the suest canal by 50

meters deep and by many meters wider which allows two ships for forward and backward to go together without waiting for the ships going forward and then going backward like it is in swiss canal it is a six hour delay for shipment so that that that's part of their plan and during that plan or in the construction of that plan it says that in order for them to be able to open this canal they need to nuke that specific area with tactical nukes and gaza is in the way this is what scares me the most okay now sarah when you have a child killer regime like the one in tel aviv it has also in exposition. nuclear warheads, nuclear weapons and also the audacity to use them, so what kind of prospect do you see for peace and security uh in this region? i'm not really seeing very much prospect at all, i don't want to be doom and gloom, i think the israelis have a game plan and i think they want to complete their

game plan, and that is the annihilation of every man, woman and child in palestine, um, i think that with that in mind that we are going to have difficult'. ever, coming, getting a ceasefire on the table, the israelis do not want to seefire on the table, it's not in british interests to have a ceasefire, because our prime minister rishi sunak's wife's investments uh all lead to the um the gaza marine for the oil and gas reserves and she has investments in bp, the only way that that can be secured as if there is there no palestinians in gaza and israelis are allowed to occupy it again. this is i think that the united nations should disqualify the veto on the grounds that the western countries involved um stopping se from taking place, actually have vested interest in making sure that seaspire doesn't

occur, in making sure that there are no palestinians left in gaza, so i unfortunately there is nothing heading towards a ceasefire because we don't have the support from our leaders, we don't have um the the desire for peace coming from either the israelis or any other western culture, and how we're going to achieve that, i just don't know. all right, israel has already used some 30,000 tons of bombs and gaza, the explosive force of which is believed to be twice as strong as nuclear bomb that a us drop on hiroshima japan in 1945, so gaza is already being nuked, like you also mentioned, so what else is it that they want, how far do they want to go? they want to completely annihilate the people or see the people move out of the land, and other way other than sinai is their plan, but they don't understand. that the people of gaza themselves, they don't want to leave their land, the only people that want to

leave at the moment are the people who are in need of medical aid and medical assistance, i mean gaza doctors are performing surgeries uh without an anesthesia, they're performing the surgeries without electricity, it is, the patients are getting infection after the amputations that they are getting, it's disastrous, it's inhumane, these are the people that need to be evacuated as soon as possible from the ghaza strip. into valid hospitals in in in egypt, but uh the the only way for them to be able to stop this, according to the plan of the zionists is to completely evacuate gaza, we're talking about 2.5 million humans here in the biggest concentration camp, open air concentration camp on earth, that is the plan and that is why the united states of america is not even allowing the israelis, it's not the other way around, the us is not allowing the israelis even start a humanitarian uh aid seasfire for 48 hours because they know that this will give uh leverage for the palestinian

resistance which has not really been affected by what has been happening because we all know that the palestinian resistance basically lives underneath uh gaza and is is there to protect gaza and had it not been for the palestinian resistance whether hamas or any other factions gaza would have been annihilated since day two or three of the... war on gaza, so now the the issue, the main issue that is also not getting any effective uh negotiations from the palestinian side itself, because they have been told that gaza needs to be evacuated, and that's not an option, that will never be an option, because after gaza most definitely the west bank will start, it has already started, we're seeing at least every day 16 to 20 marters falling in the west bank due to the israeli aggression, so it has already. started and it has been going on for 75 years, but the main issue for israel right now is to regain

control and they cannot regain control in their understanding of the matter without completely evacuating gaza from uh everyone, right? okay, sarah, given the atrocious crimes being committed against the defenseless palestinians in gaza, israel is now viewed as a threat to the entire humanity, so is it okay to normalize relations with such an? legitimate regime with those ill intentions, mean those arab states that did so, what did they gain apart from resentment and hatred from palestinians? never been okay to normalize um with the israeli regime, it's never, it's always been about annihilation, it's always been about domination, it's always been about eradicating and eraising and ethnically cleansing the palestinians, it's never been right to normalize, and those nations that have normalized. some are pulling back, some are getting rid of the uh, i know south africa has got rid of all its delegates, one

could ask why have you got delegates in in uh, post apart south african state that's fully aware that the israeli regime has been labeled and apartite by so many, so you know no, it's never been all right to normalize, and i think if um, sorry, i'm having computer problems, but i i think certainly if anybody normalizes from this point onwards, "now the the world will never forgive them, this is, this is exactly the reason why everybody said, you cannot normalize with an israelli apartite regime, you cannot do that." uh, it's a violation in itself, violation of international law, it's it's condoning apartite, it's condoning ethnic cleansing and it always has been, so yes, it's always been about money and oil and you know ligining people's pockets, but this is a juncture now where pull out, everybody has to pull out, and and the only way to is to isolate the

israeli regime as much as possible, because we've left it too late, the annihilations has begun, the exterminations have began. and thousands of lost their lives, there's there's over 2,000 people still under the rubble, we've almost left this too late, we've left it too late to reform the united nations, so so now we're coming in on the backfoot, trying to save what's left, and we're looking a population that is about to go into a secondary genocide of of infection and disease, they drinking sewage water, you know, people are texting me and communicating and saying that their wounds are inf. and and that there is no infrastructure left, look we've left it too late, but let's pull out everybody now must pull out and isolate the israeli regime before this continues, before this escalates any further. all right, maru, let's now talk a little bit about one of the accomplices of this ruinous war, the us that's already under fire for its unflinching

support for the televive regime, american people of course, they rally the express their solid. and their opposition, the solidarity with palestinian, opposition to israeli crimes against palestinians, so what makes washington fund these really war machine, while they have issues at home, that money, that taxpair money could be better be spent on home turf, couldn't it? let us begin by saying that they are not funding it, it is an extension of the empire, israel is there, because the empire wants it to be there, because the empire actually inherited it from the british empire, i'm talking about the... american empire israel himself have said it 30 years ago and he said it again two weeks ago he said if there were no israel we were have to found new make create israel in the middle east this is what they are saying because it is vital extension of their colonial power in the region of west asia and uh the evidence of that is that on day one uh

sorry i'm having electricity problems the the evidence of that is that on day one when the uh war started on gaza, we saw that the us not only sent warships, the eisenhower battleship and the uh rogan battleship with all the equipment with all the aircraft carriers, at the moment there are 56 uh aircraft carriers and battleships in the mediterranean, the first time since 1945, and they sent all of this along with 14 billion dollars and sending biden himself to give ba hog to netanyahu in the airport when he landed in occupied diafa, otherwise known as tel avib, so they are there, because this is an extension, israel is the 51st state of the united states of america, and this is evidence, because not only they funded them, not only they ran to help their little evil lad, they even brought in new weaponry, as if

israel itself is not the house of weaponry that is actually manufacturing weapons and selling them. to other states across the world, they brought them uh more than 9 billion dollar worth of weaponry to be used against the people of gaza and they even brought in boots on the ground which many uh united states uh former generals and uh experts in military have told us that many of whom have lost their lives attempting to uh to perform a ground invasion against the gaza strip so now americans not only are paying to kill palestine. but their own sons and daughters will be returning back to america in coffens because they are fighting a war that they should not be fighting the same wars that they fought in iraq, in syria and elsewhere, but this time it will hit hard uh back in the united states of america, because this time the evidence is impeccable, the evidence is so crystal clear to point that

lot of people in both administrations, whether it's the netan regime or the biden regime will have to pay, not in front of us, but in front of their own law, their own constitution, it's by the fact that designs does not have constitution, but in front of their own investigative teams and investigative committees because of the horrors that they committed and because of the betray to their own people by uh what they did. we are now seeing protest inside the israeli entity itself calling on the netanyahu cabinet to. stop the horrors to stop, because he's what he's doing is not in their name, and this is the first, this has never happened before inside of the scienist entity, yeah, true, now sarah, in the absence of action by the international community. some of them are just paying lip service, some of them are saying given nothing, voting in abstention a security council, see what's been happening, initiatives are being verowed by america, so what options do palestinians

have other than resistance in order to be able to survive and counter this child killer regime? yeah, um, they are the resistance, they're an amazing, amazing courage and resistance that we've seen so far, and it will continue, but at very high. cost um the international community is not going to be relied on, you know uh, unfortunately we would have done something by now if we were going to do it, we're watching a genocide unfold before our very eyes and nobody has really lifted finger, so i think that i'm not saying that the palestinians are on their own, i know that they will get other supportive allies that hopefully will come in, i know that hezbolla said that if there was any sign that hamas was losing that you know he would he would send in his troops and and you know but at the moment um yeah all i can see is lot of devastation lot of lives

being lost more and more children being pulled out of the rubble genocide continuing and the international community doing absolutely nothing but twidling their fingers and it and it it's you know they will be remembered as always being on the wrong side of history but for some reason you know it it we're not the casm between the people mean we've seen half million people people come out in london, possibly more than that, it's an underestimate, half million people come out in london and take over the railway stations and put an awful lot of pressure on the resources of britain, bring london to a standstill, and it has made no difference to the speech there still coming out with the same rhetoric that israel has a right to defend itself, as if if you keep repeating it long enough the people again to believe you, but yes globally people have come out uh in a show of strength and a show of... support for the palestinian people, they're not alone in solidarity, but as far as firepower at the moment, they they are sitting ducks and we have israeli officials talking talking about

dropping atomic bombs and we even have netanyahu invoke a biblical story um about the amalites uh who had to be annihilated in order to protect the israelites, it's an old religious story, and he used that in a speech, and if that isn't a metaphor and incitement. for uh extermination, which is possibly worse than the israeli minister of heritage. if that isn't incitement, then i don't know what is, and and what it will take for the west to realize, if they don't step in now, they're going to go down in history, as um, allowing one of the worst genocides in and and for me that i have ever witnessed, yep, exactly, unfortunately. all right, i appreciate your insight and comments, there are wilkinson human rights actor. in midlands uk, marthman, journalists and politic analys in beirout, lebanon, i thank you for watching this episode of the spotlight, i'm pressed to be with me, your host najafi, i'll see you

next time.

israel pounding gaza's largest medical facility al-shifa hospital. calities from more than a month of the bombards of besiges strip topping 10,300 two american military bases in iraq and syria come under fresh attacks, some that's grown into us sentiment over washington's complicity in the israely atrocities in gaza. and bahraine's national assembly is pressing to reverse the normalization of the country's relations with israel and reaction to the regime's genocide in gaza.
