10:03 pm
west bank, but the world is falling flat, not able to prevent either. the us secretary general has invoked article 99 to see if that can really support a cease fire, although not much hope is pined on that. meanwile the us has rejected the latest financial aid package which would have included $5 billion for israel, although the us president has been sure that israel has unfettered access to us military equipment. in this program we will look at this really unslot and where this war is heading, first let me. guests, west asia expert joins us from belfast, also joining is a political commentator, from chicago, welcome to you both, first start with um, i have to with this because this is truly shocking uh, the latest count is now at 17,177 in terms of the people that have been uh massacred and in the gaza strip, 350 were
10:04 pm
killed in the past 24 hours as the bombardments continued, so we're looking a situation where if anybody had doubt that a genocide is really taking place, that is that is now sinking in, not to mention the fact that you have their very 10 to 1500 that are under the which dead, and then you have 60 who are injured, get the medical treatment that they deserve, and then the who to come out and say, "the number of dise the number of people who are die from diseases is going to be more than the actual deal. yeah, it's, if you look at the campaign itself is designed in a very evil and wicked way, which is designed mainly to wh they are genociding people, killing people to crush the most of them and cram them in the very south of gaza after they created this zoning ab with..."
10:05 pm
which is with the blocks over 600 the blocks in map telling the people you have this is your safe area if you are block eight go to block 25 and they keep moving the people in that way forcing them to think it's their own safe escape since what we witnessed even today and some i'll give you which these shells were designated by united nation and the coordinate were giving to this entity invading forces as this is will be safe, they put snipers today this morning around area close to the indonesian hospital where there is a shelter in the they start killing every individual coming or getting or out so the the they target this this school there is around 80 people inside and they were sending you like sos calls for anybody to help them and they be picked one by one by there is massacer al jazeera this morning published a video about the the family was killed at
10:06 pm
entrance of that shelter, to share it myself, but of course facebook straight away goes against their own community policy and stuff like that, you're not the they have they want to silence anything to to mention this massacres of civilians committed by invading force, yes the united nation itselfish article 99 of the un charter which is not used for light and wasn't used for decades, he is informing the security. counsel, there is a global danger from the zin and the war brutal war of genocide is committing in gaza, he r the bell in a big time here, as well the honor commissioner general of the philipp lazarini war international community and saying there's absolutely no safe place left of in in gaza, the population is in gaza and there is not you un shelter or indesignated area by the zin. israel themselves as
10:07 pm
according to him, well let's talk about that article 99 uh in terms of uh the uh reaction that came from israel, if i ask you that where israel has come out and said that uh... resolutions passed by the un that condemn israel for this and that or ask israel to restrain itself or more or less just basically slap israel on the wrist is essentially what's happening so over 65 resolutions every single one of them israel has violated so the un can come in and come
10:08 pm
in and say stop doing that and sure they'll stop for a brief period of time but the nature of israel will command it to continue its horrific war crimes over and over again that that's just the fact that's what we've been looking at since 195 48 and and something to consider here as well right, a cease fire, we can call it ceire, we can call it you or whatever, a cease fire to the israelis is basically that admitting defeat, because from day one their strategic objectives included delimination of the palestinian resistance, mainly hamas. now when the un comes in and asks israel to not do that, what basically telling israel in the eyes of the zionis is they're asking us to lose, the way that they do it. now again, the the cease fire isn't even a real cease fire because as you and i know, we've been in in the same room multiple times, the israely occupation is the violence, everything that we see that happens in entity is a response to the occupation, and so when you ask israel
10:09 pm
to you just use fire, never mind that you're asking them in their eyes to lose, what you're basically saying is let's just stop now, let's not address the fact that the real crime in the r is the occupation of palestinian land, that the real crime is the occupation of the palestinian people uh the call for seasfire you know is going to save lives no doubt 100%, but the violence remains, the that of violence remains, whether that's in the guza strip, whether that's in west bank, whether that's to to the designist neighbors right, for example uh, you have syria which you know whenever israel decides it's going to constantly bomb, you have lebanon and so on and so forth, well that's the million dollar question as how to get to this - end that conflict. should be uh pretty straight forward to the way that israel has been categorized even by the un and classified by the un as an apartide regime. um let's look at the way that uh advances have been made or not if you agree by the resistance fighters. we had beerut and talk about how there were little over 24 or 25 military vehicles that were destroyed. um
10:10 pm
you have over 80 israeli regime forces that have been killed and uh there was one particular incident yesterday that we reported that we was widely reported we were one of them in one 70 israel soldiers, six regime forces were actually taken out, we don't hear much about israel and its investment towards the ultimate goal of hamas, what what's going on there, how would you describe the advancements or the failures or the successes on either side? netanyahu told the israeli media, the zist public, they they are surroundingwar's house, the hamas leader in and this is been maybe over 15 hours now this kind of why didn't they arrest him? what is the big leaders of hamas the claiming they berading what they doing exactly to show a sign which is pathetic earlier today the monitoring body say in a statement which is w circulated they
10:11 pm
documented storming of incubation of soldiers many shelters in gaza and arresting lots of people among them doctors, journalists academics. and all people and they were arresting everybody above for 15 and they sing them from their clothes and they blindf them and half them and they exterminate execute some and they take some nearly to unknown places this to b to their own thirsty blood thirsty population we got hamas fighters they go into shelter safe areas designated themselves united nation knows that euromed talked about that. they killing lot of people, lot of people, telling their own people even in the move at the beginning when they were pushing people from the north of gaza to the south, we witnessed rasheed street, how many was killed, and there is this one survivor a bike was filming and the
10:12 pm
crying for help, and the same thing they done between the south and north and the south, they were stopping the displaced, the force displaced people and picking their sons, they took the head dr. the shif hospital and over 60 personals of shif hospital itself as hostages and money so they want eye to their own people they they put they arrested hammas while on the ground the... focusing on the battle, he spoke about it rightly today, hanunis, there is huge gathering from the zinest machinery war machines and brigades to fight the battle of because this is the decisive battle, khanist city always is the final throw in any between the resistance and the zinity and always managed hanunis to a massive blow to this entity, the casual is starting my... min up in khaniling mean in today yesterday and they conducted
10:13 pm
unbelievable and carpet bombardment yesterday and the day before all right i like to give reaction to something thank you for that i like to understand from you uh something that's not really widely reported on uh or or watched or viewed or or even broadcast and that is a visit by the um benjamin netanyahu to the northern part of the gaza strip. uh we went there, he lifted either a piece of rock or something or other that i forget whether it was piece of rock or the uh soil there and said there's going to be a future settlements that's going to be in this area i'm wondering uh is the goal of the gaza strip when it comes to israel what does we know it wants to iraq get hamas which is another story we can to what what do they plan to do they want the palestinians based on what scorner the palestinians in the southern part of the god strip it looks like then they pushed them into rafa and seems like they're trying to push them off into egypt, what do they want to do with the gaza strip that this will go against the usa said that no, there will be
10:14 pm
no force displacement of palestinians, or is the us just putting out a lie out there? uh, i'd say united states is 100% lying, kind of keep it uh kind of voter base at bay, of course they're going to say that we don't support ethnic, but what we see on the ground is 100% ethnic from day one, day one uh with the bombings of the guza strip the the israel regime told the palestinians there. evacuate the north, while they were evacuating the north, they were bombing the main roads, the humanitarian corridors is what they call it, bomb there, they were bomb the rossing, they're they're pushing them into the south and then bombing those locations to, we see very that they're not interested in having the palestinians say, and even after shortly after on mush in infamous visit, i'm going to call it to israel to talk to the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, what did they say that they have an interest in rebuilding the gaz ship, they didn't say for who, said that they have an interest in rebuilding it, and i think what this this clear propaganda campaign that we see within yahu here, is
10:15 pm
that he is hinting towards all the settlers that are currently looking at netanyahu and seeing a weak leader that he intend to finally solve he would refer to as a palestinian problem that he wants to take this all the way and not just eliminate hamas but eliminate the palestinian people there, be it through ultra violence by committing a genocide or through ethnic cleansing, these are the two options. that are on his table and he's and he's going to exhaust both of them uh to create a situation where the the the gaza strip as it currently stands becomes unlivable so what israel can then say is well this place is unlivable it presents a security threat to us we're going cleaning this place up and taking the land for ourself while pushing that palestinians out this has been clear since one and i think they're going to fail at this i think world is watching i think they're overplaying their hand here it's going to become evidently clear uh to the have not yet woken up uh that this has been the plan since day one, this has been the plan since 1948 and they want to
10:16 pm
use opportunity to carry it out, but they're losing, so they're resorting to these, these propaganda campaigns, these propaganda photo shoots, they're resorting to this horrific genocide of the palestinian people, they're resorting to ethnic cleansing, and then last but not least they are resorting to, as they always do, painting themselves as the victims and saying boohoo, look at me, this is the awful thing that's been done to me, i deserve this land, up shot, what about the us role when it comes to this, i said the fact, that the kamala harris vp said, we're definitely not going to draw boundaries, borders, we're not going to forcibly have palestinians being displaced. iran by the way has come out said the us should have no role in deciding the fate of the palestinians, nevertheless uh, where do you see the u.s. in terms of this aspect of it, the future of what the go strip will entail. you see gaza exposed the weakness, the massive weakness in the united states of america's germany in the region with the western allies as well, when the... america came to the ground fighting alongside with the the zist entity with the british
10:17 pm
howering over the skis of gaza and spying on the name of they are trying to locate prisoners and hostages as well and as well the french backup the german the italians all the ways at the met gaza expos how fragile was that zinus entity for them and they want to shure up and strengthen the watch dog in the... so all of this given this entity weeks to finish this job. by christmas so as he thanks given he give some sort of truth for himerian purposes now you want to give something similar around the christmas so they can have christmas and peace this is this disgusting kind of attitude but at the same time the united states of america watching today like if you can see in yesterday was in the region today president
10:18 pm
of iran in moscow the chinese issuing statements the last couple of days so no in the international community trust the region to be controlled, hegemonized or even between the palestinians or the arms at one side and the z entity, since it's all exposed, the the the main the main ones which is fighting the palestinian, gen the palestinian, issuing the orders is the united states of america with the western imperialist with it, this is obvious now, now gaza expos that, now gaza saying the the americans in there they want to bush the palestinian. out of gaza as a quick as possible and as many as they can, that's why they they come them in rough, that's why there is manufacturing hunger epic size kind of starvation and pandemic as well, so there is water, no medicine, and there is nearly million and a half acramd in there, so by doing that they want them to force them in egypt and create chaos between the egyptians
10:19 pm
and the palestinians, because that will threaten the national security of egypt, so the naces of america wanted. out of that kiss building the rebel so it can rebuild its own which is the line from india to ha again the chinese project which is this route so gaza is at the center of this global global struggle but the chinese americans and iran as well they have to push more now to stop the united states of america well the ones that are doing the pushing uh i think comes one form um under one hand and that's the answers. risby who are actually very courageously uh coming out saying we're targeting you, we're targeting anybody's affiliated with you in the babal straight and the red sea i guess and they are not kidding about that on the one hand on the other hand you have the obviously the front with which is still simmering though contained do you think that this war will israel continues with what it's doing um either elevate the
10:20 pm
situation with those two fronts to a higher level or have other players come into the picture i guess depends on what resistance on the palestine front looks like uh both of these variables um play a crucial role in dismantling the israeli regime see it right now but i think that's ultimately led with the leader of the palestine i don't think unless of course israel escalates its own uh its own behalf to you know ignite war with withbullah which would be foolish its part because as we both know history that they've lostted them multiple times or if it decides to ignite a war with yemen is unprecedented, i don't see uh those two characters or those two variables operating to major escalatory level. now what remains on the trade routes uh that's interesting to me because as far as trade route goes, i mean themselves have said as long as continues, you can't use these waters and now the trades are impacting to the t of millions, i mean like that would
10:21 pm
take them just few days added 18 days around africa into asia, i think it would be in israel best interest especially as it's you know spending millions and millions of dollar a day, i think the last time we checked it was what what was it 50 million uh that number is only going up as more settlers leave israel as the workforce diminishes as their traders suffer, i don't think it would be designing best intention is escalate any fir especially with those two um now on their own would they continue escalation continue that escalation escalation uh that is yet to be seen but i would doub it as they mainly work in lock step and solidarity with the palestinian people. um historically the the only response that has been get has created with this state has been a response uh you zit invaded so hasb responded it's never been something offensive as just as with the palestinians the only reason why escalate in in the region the only reason why there's violence in the region is because of the israeli entity they are cause everything else
10:22 pm
is the effect is the effect ra is the effect the palestine resistance is the effect. all right, in conclusion, just minutes ago, netanyahu has issued against of escalation and he said that israel must behave differently in southern gaza, it's a threat, and this comes after civilian was killed on the leban border, where do you think that's going to go? this is just in the last minutes, this was issued, netanyahu threatened lebanon, like gaza or khanunis, that's his his language he used, he is just this man risking the security of the region, risking the security of his. people risking the future of this entity the region just to survive, because this man wants this ends and stops, this man going to be taken for criminal charges and for fail. of protecting this entity feeling as captain of a ship to steer the ship away from he land it in a middle of a massive volcano that's what's
10:23 pm
afraid he's afraid for himself doesn't care anything else okay thank you very much expert from b thank you so much political commentator from chicago with that we come to end for this edition of the spotlight from team goodbye.
10:24 pm
10:25 pm
"he will be a target to the israeli occupation. the israeli occupation does not want the journalist to succeed in covering these violations. the hospital was targeted with white fasterus barms that resulted in huge fires. we were afraid we would end up burn alongside the patients inside the room."
10:26 pm
the headlines, iran's president ras deplored the west for supporting israel's genocide war and the palestinian people the gaza strip. palestinian health ministry says israel playing more than 350 l in the past day, raising the death to nearly 17,200, and his love resistance says that is conducted fresh retaliatory attacks on his early positions south of lebanon.
