with the current situation, under the current situation, how can social media change the dynamics? it should be used as a networking tool, you know people all over the from beginning of the history of colonialism, one of the ways that they tried to keep people colonized to keep people oppressed was to divide and conquer, basically keep people in their own cells and don't allow them to of communicate with each other, right now we have... as our service certain tools that can allow us to network with each other and to go beyond uh you know the mainstream media that are there that that you know for so long has has tried to keep the palestinian voice down and to mute them, so i think the networking is very important to understand that there are people around the world every in every corner of the world that have the same uh feelings for palestine that have... that have

very creative ways of supporting the palestinian people, so this networking potential of the social media should be used in order to basically bring the minds and hearts of the freedom fighting people of the world together in order to move beyond this difficult period in our history, in the history of the world. thank you very much for your thoughts, miss bedia, if you could please stay with us. as we also have professor foad isadi, political analyst, professor at tehran university, who is also with us. thank you very much uh, professor ezedi for joining us. now, in your opinion, how uh, do you expect uh other uh, palestinian groups and factions to react to this assassination? do you believe that this cowardly act from the part of the zionist regime will create? more division or will it

unite the palestinians? i think it will unite the palestinians more. i think palestinians are united as we speak, you saw the palestinian ambassador at the united nations few hours ago at the security council meeting that was requested by iran, she was sitting next to the iranian ambassador, you is associated with the palestine. authority which is different from hamas or islamic jihad, but if you had a representative of hamas, islamic jihad writing that speech, i don't think you would see much difference, so there is this level of unity, i think the people who taught in among palestinian politicians, the people who thought that you could negotiate your way out of occupation,

realized that is not going to be the case. mr. han was the lead negotiator in the last 10 months and israelis kill the negotiator of the other side. this is how israel is act, so this is a lesson for the palestinians, for other people may be thinking about negotiating with the united states or israel that they have no. limitations, they have no of regard to international law, and they engage in terrorism as much as they can, as much as they want, the only language they understand is force, that is what hamas has been using, and this is what's going to happen with iran, i believe, the response of iran's government.

to the terrorist attack is going to be similar to what you saw on april 13th, in a much stronger way, so overall what we have been witnessing in the last 48 hours is what iran has been saying about design is for many many years, that the language of force is the only language to understand, so professor isadi, we have been witnessing huge crowds coming out for the funeral procession, which is quite significant and unprecedented in so many ways, to see this number of people turning out in the iranian capital for a funeral procession of foreign political leader. uh, do you believe that to the israelis uh, have this in mind that the the assassination would affect uh iran's relations with the palestinian political groups and factions, and do you... believe

that they have succeeded in achieving the objectives that they had in mind? basically, how do you think this assassination will affect aron's relations with uh political groups and factions in palestine? "you know what you saw this morning in tehran, it was very similar to what you saw when president raisi passed away, so iran's respect for ismail hania was at the same level as iran showed to its own president, you know, in this part of the world, people are very respectful to their..." guests and they generally engage in all activities to make sure that their guest is okay with regard to the time of the stay of that guest, so when

you assassinate a guest of iran, this goes back to the cultural roots of... people, they become very upset, and that's why you saw this huge crowd today in tehran, there were people that came from other cities came to tehran to participate in in today's funeral, and all over the world, palestinians and non-palestinians, when they see this level of respect coming from iran, the effect is... obviously is going to be feeling closeness to the people of iran, to the government of iran, and you know throughout the years, some arab speaking media athletes funded by

governments that arab governments that were hostile to iran, engaged in a lot of anti-iran propaganda, and that had some effect a percentage of the arab population that... received this propaganda, but i think the pictures today show the true nature of iranian people and the iranian government, iran has been strong supporter of the palestinian cause for the last 45 years, you the americans for many many times over the years have been telling iranian government officials that if you stop your support of palestinians, all sanctions will go, and iranian government officials have not listen to that advice, because they realize the nature of the people that are giving that advice, and so it's an honor for iran and iranians to support the palestinian cause,

it's a responsibility of iran to support the palestinian cause, you one reason there was an islamic revolution in 197. '99 was because people were upset about the relationship that the shah had with the israelis, there was a de facto recognition of israel, there were huge economic linkage, shah one was one of the few people who were selling oil to israelis and you people in iran were upset about normalization of relations between iran and israel during shah's time, and that's one the reasons there was a revolution here, so support for palestinian cause has been part of iran's islamic revolution from the very beginning, and you saw all the young people today that were born, you know, after the 1979 revolution present, supporting the

palestinian leader that they never met in person, but the importance of the palestinian. and the importance of one of the main leaders of resulted in what you saw today. thank you very much, mr. izadi. let's bring in also miss. also joining us from tehran to tell us, miss bedia, in your opinion, how will this assassination affect to the entire discourse on terrorism and state sponsored ass? fascinations and terrorist attacks like this one? yes, with every similar action the designist regime carries on, people see the reality of the hypocrisy of the zionist regime, we had netanyahu on giving a speech in us congress a

couple of days ago, and there he was talking about the duality of civilization and barbarism, and he made he you went to so such such a length to talk about the idea that zionism is civilization and the rest of the world and especially the resistance front is barbarism and that is... reminiscent of the colonial mentality that you know we have had for the last 500 years uh, but now with every action that this regime actually commits, with every you know terroristic action that is commit such as the marxism of the the terror of mr. ismail hania, people come to realize the hypocrisy of this sort of... talking that the zianist regime and its leaders have been trying to you know

propagate around the world and of course their mainstream media, the media that has been owned by the zionist front has been trying to feed everyone uh you know around the world, so this makes the reality uh of things clearer with the blood of this you know the... blood of mr. hania, people see the truth, people see the reality of terrorism, who is terrorist, you know, which state is actually sponsor of terrorism, which state is responsible for all the instability that is there, not only in the west asia region, but also around the world, and which state is actually the root cause of the problems. of you know the west asia region at the moment, so i think this is this the the

clarist clarification that this pure blood gives to us, the clarification of the picture that is before us, it is important for us to actually find the way forward to see that the path that we have come has been the right path and to have our will... fortified in order to basically go forward uh and this is important to uh this is an important effect that this morm is going to have uh you know in terms of the resistance front. thank you very much miss biria. now back to professor fuad izadi, in your opinion, what does this event reveal about the geopolitical alliances in the region and beyond? "you know, before hamas operation on october 7, we had number

of countries in this part of the world that had normalize relations with the occupiers of palestine, and we had some countries that were in line to normalize relations, there were talks of saudi, normalization of relations with..." israel and lot of people believe that if saudis normalize relations with israel then there other countries in in in in west asia and elsewhere that would follow the saudi lead in normalization of relations and that would have been the more or less the end of the palestinian cause and this is i think one reason palestinians engaged in october 7 operation to disrupt

this process of uh letting israel get away with occupation, because at the end of the day normalization means allowing israel to occupy palestinian lands forever, and what happened on october 7 obviously had significant ramifications for geopolitical questions in this part of the world, and the idea was to have israel leading other countries here in their efforts to put more pressure on iran, that was the basic idea, this is what mr. natanyahu said in his speech at the us congress last week, this is what he wanted to do, this is what he still wants to

do, but the bad news for mr. natanyahu is that people are realizing the nature of the israeli government as and as they engage in terrorism more, they show the true face of the israeli regime, and this knowledge about the israeli regime, is no longer limited to muslims or arab populations, you saw hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating outside the us congress. opposing mr. netanyahu, of course mr. netanyahu called these demonstrators iran's useful idiots and i think by highlighting iran's role in the support of the palestinian cause and by acknowledging iran's leadership in in support

the palestinian cause, mr. natanyahu in fact, raised iran's standing among all people who opposed genocide, which i think is more than 99% of the world population. no one really likes to see women and children killed in this manner in anywhere, as you have seen killed in occupied palestine, so in reality iran's useful idiot is mr. natanyahu, because by highlighting iran standing in the support for palestinian cause, he is actually directing people to look at iran and realize that what iran has been saying for the last 45 years is actually true, and i think that is going to have a bigger impact on geopolitics of not only this region but

internationally as we go forward, and is actually... responsible for proving what iran has been saying all along is actually true, so greetings uh to our guests and our viewers uh, this is by, i'm taking over um from my colleague gisu, let's cross over uh to um miss uh joining us from the iranian capital, tehran, miss media, "one issue that cannot be overlooked is the level of involvement of uh uh other players, namely the united states with regards to uh to carrying out this um assassination which has been um condemned as a a war crime uh in contravention to international law and has been uh described

as a uh a political assassination so this couldn't have happened without a nod from the united states." am i correct? yes, it's it's unimaginable, it's unthinkable that something like this would happen without some sort of knowledge on on the part of the united states given the fact that from the beginning of the zionist regimes you know atrocities and aggression against the people of gaza, the united states has been an active player, not as a supporter of the zinus regimes move. but as you know someone who is undergrounds and is basically leading the the aggression, so i think this is something that everyone around the world understands to be the case, even if some of the political leaders of the united states deny it, and of course in these sort

of activities usually there there is some room for deniability. you know that there is some cover operation happening and of course there are the those parts of the us government, the us system that is involved, and then for the political factions, for the political leaders, there is this room left for them to basically talk about talk about the issue in a in a way that you know gives them this uh sort of deniability that they are. in terms of their involvement and their responsibility for what has happened, but you know this is fact that from the very beginning united states has been active in terms of the genocide that is taking place against the palestin the palestinian people in gaza, so this is part of that picture, it

is, it's not that this you know what has happened this ass vaccination is uh you know the separate from the bigger picture from the uh you know the whole of this genocide that is happened sure and uh mystery uh i'm sure this is something that you've covered in your previous answers but uh let's elaborate on on that issue for a viewers once again do you think that with carrying out this assassination of uh this was just another measure by the israelis to try and torpedo any chance of uh of the truth negotiations reaching a ceasefire. "and you know, if israelis were interested in resolving their

disputes with the palestinians, they would have implemented the two state solution many years ago, they could, they could kept, they could have kept most of palestine, and they still wanted to take it on and..." "this is a problem that israels have, they think they can get away with occupation, and the mistake they have is that the palestinians are not going to let them do that, this is palestinian land, you can kill the leader of hamas, but you cannot eliminate a whole nation, and this is the point that israel is..." get so they could, you know, there has been a peace deal on the table, the

palestinians have accepted that, natanyahu could accept that deal, in fact us president said that this deal is actually an israeli offer, so could not accept his own, apparently his own peace. instead of accepting that deal, he decided to kill the negotiator for the other side, which shows the nature of the israeli regime, so overall, the israelis have managed to miss every opportunity that existed for some sort of settlement, and the end result of that is going to be a one state solution, and this is what iran has been proposing for many decades, that if democracy is good, which is

good, and this is what not only supporters invests and governments claim to support democracy, if that claim is true let people in that country vote, one man, one vote, one woman, one vote. and let them elect their officials and one reason israel are not accepting that is because the population of palestinians is actually larger than the occupier zionists, so if if there was a one man one vote, mr. natanu would not be israel's prime minister, you would have a palestinian as prime minister of palestine, and that would end the israeli apartite, the same way voting powers ended the south

african aparty, and since the israelis are not willing to accept any deal with the other side, they are actually helping to realize that one state solution, because you cannot have a genocidal regime in 21st century for long, you can not have an apartide regime in 21st century for long, and sooner or later the western backers, the american backers of the israel regime realize that supporting a genocidal apartite regime is not a good idea, and that would be the end of israel, and this is what iran's leader predicted some years ago, so this is the beginning of the end of the israeli regime and... thanks to that useful idiot, mr. netanyahu that is engaging in activities that will result in the ultimate palestinian victory. miss um, let's

focus on the double standards and the hypocrisy uh that we've been seeing time and again with regards to the uh to the israelis from western countries, namely the united states and its allies. if an arab country or muslim country... did what israel has done over the past 24 hours, how would how would the west have responded in your opinion? yes, as always, you know, there is this double standard that first of all, palestinian lives do not matter as much as you know any other, especially western people, especially you know the those who are on the side of the zionist regime, so this is the one the... standard that has been there for long and of course you know the all the talk about uh you know the rule of law, democracy about uh you know civilization about 'all these

euphemistic terms that are there that have lost their meaning because of this long history of how the west and especially the united states has acted towards them are repeated over and over again, of course every time the israeli regime does something like this like the assassination of ismail hania in tehran like the assassination of shaheid foad shukker in'. lebanon like all the even the genocide that is happening in gaza, the killing of the little babys and women and men and you know this all this hardship that is brought upon a whole population you know is brought is basically summed up in one hypocritical phrase and that is israel is has the right to defend itself and that has lot

it meaning th all these words that have been taken from international relations, terminologies and theories, you know, have lost their meaning in today's world, everyone is seeing what is happening, everyone is witnessing the you know the hollowness of these you know concepts that are the central that are very much central to the rhetoric that is there in on the part of the united states government and on the part of the zionist regime, so i think this is one very important step that is that the people of the world are taking, understanding these hypocritical ways of dealing with people, with human human beings, you know that some humans are better than others, some humans are superior to others, some humans are more

human than others, some humans even though... have any worse at all, people are basically fed up with these with this sort of rhetoric, with this sort of mentality, and i think what we are seeing with the you know the resistance that is happening on the ground in gaza, with the resistance that is happening everywhere around the world, with the support that the palestinian people are receiving from people, you know, from from you know american campuses to all the way to you know countries like uh turkey, like iran, like african countries, european countries, you know, all over the world is because that this system of talking to the world uh is basically crumbling to the ground, this double standard, this you know this way of...
