israeli lobby, crackdown, diplomacy, israeli genocide of palestinians, day 333. hello and welcome tonight our spotlight is on one of the most pressing issues of our time.

the brutal conflict in gaza, which has now reached a grim milestone of 333 days, making it the longest period of violence in the occupied territories. amid relentless bombardment from land, air and sea, the toll on the people of gaza is harrowing with nearly 40,800 lives lost, predominantly women and children. in this episode, we will provide a comprehensive recap of. the events that have unfolded over the past 11 months, examining the human cost, the destruction and the ongoing struggle for peace, and in order to do that, we are joined by mr. khalid barakot, spokesperson of the masar badil movement, joining us live from vancouver, and also we have with us minesh, palestinian scientist. and author who is joining us from

bethlehem. thank you very much to both of you gentlemen. let's begin with our guest from vancouver, mr. barakot, we have reached this very grim milestone of 333 days. the israelis launched this genocidal war on gaza, claiming certain objectives, none of which... they have achieved so far, yes, hello and greeting to you and to your guest, dr. mazen kolsia, it is important to also, as we recapping this past 11 month to understand why al-aqsa flood operation happened and why the palestinian resistance took that decision, it is because of the israeli. settler colonialist policies

that we're continuing along the west bank and gazza and jerusalem, israel continuation of the mass imprisonment of over 5000 pestinian political prisoners then, now the number have reached to almost 10,000 and israel have conducted more than 2000 arrest since october 7th and that's killing all almost 700 people in the west bank, now the israeli fascist government and the israely fascist religious trend, particularly continue to threaten the palestinian holy places for christians and muslims, particularly aqsa mask, and at the same time we have seen that israel, with the support of its ally, the united states and the western... colonialist powers and some of

the arab regimes continued the siege on ghazza since 2005 and the siege is a form of war, it was not just just imprison imprisoning over two million people in ghazza, but also the siege have affected thousands of palestinin lives, not to mention the five comprehensive wars that israel have wished against the palestinian people in ghazza, so al aqsa flood operation had come to respond to all of that and to say that the palestinian people. are not going to watch, i'm very sorry to cut you off right there, because we're covering the entire 11 months, there's a wide range of topics we need to talk, so let's stick to the answers to those direct questions please, the israelies stated certain objectives, they have not achieved

any of those, what does that show? well, it shows the failure and of the israeli army and the israeli government, but and and it was... was so obvious today when benjamin netanyahu had come you know in his press conference an hour ago and you know he was defeated politician ending his career as a failure to the number one failure as a prime minister of designist entity and at the same time we see that the israeli society the israeli you know army the israeli political ranks are divided, they are very weak, yes they are committing all these war crimes and genocide against the palestinian people, but not one single objective of what netanyahu declared on october 8th have been achieved, and particularly the goals that he did not

declare, and that is the ethnic cleansing of palestinians and displacement of palestinians pushing them outside of ghazza, he failed on that front as well, because the palestinian. people have showed heroic steadfastness that is unprecedented in any conflict and at the same time the palestinian resistance, the palestinian armed resistance, not just in ghazza but also in the west bank is still steadfasting and it's still strong, it's still operates in a very organized manner and under a unified leadership, all of this israeli failures is... also have a palestinian strategic gains, because palestine was about to be liquidated and now we see that palestine is on the international agenda, palestine is the number one international cause. israel have exposed its

true nature as a colonialist, racist, settler project that has no future in palestine, and the only solution that the people of the world are looking at now... is the end of thesign project in the arab world, in the heart of the muslim world, at the same time we see a strategic gains on the camp of resistance in the region, and that is a qualitative change where you have the resistance movements in the region unified and not just politically, not just you know a popular level, but also a military level, if we look at the great and strategic achievement. the yemeni forces and the people of yemen, the lebanese resistance, okay, mr. barakat, i'm sorry, i'm cutting you off right there, because that is the topic of another question, i'm going to ask you later, let's bring in our guest from bethlehem right now, mr. mahazin joining us, uh, in your opinion,

well uh, this conflict has uh gone long enough to uh see the huge impact that it has had on women and children, this conflict has definitely disproportion. affected women and children, something that is really unprecedented, but what are the long-term implications in your opinion? yes, my name is by the way, but anyway, the situation in the occupied territories has been going on like this for 76 years now, situation of course accelerated in the past 11 months with the over 17 children, the number is probably double that because of study in lanset that shows that much more children have been killed and died because of the blockade and sanctions on gaza since october 7, so we're

talking about tens of thousands of civilians who have been killed in estimates of 180,000 palestinians. about seven or eight percent of the population of gaza have been decimated and the numbers keep going and one israeli minister said, well we need to keep going, there's only finite number of people in gaza, meaning we should finish them off, so clearly this is genocide, and genocide in a population like gaza, where obviously half of it is female, and about half of the population is also children, so we're talking the vast majority are women and children, who are injured or killed, 72% as of the last... statistics are women and children who are killed in gaza, and of course, as i said, the

numbers are much much higher than that, and probably the percentage higher because of the susceptibility of women and children, to the impact of starvation and lack of sanitation and lack of clean water and so on. already 1 million people in gaza are estimated to have diseases. is related to the issues of the blockade that includes skin disorders, lung disorders, blood disorders like hepatitis a and b etc. i think this is devastating and you probably heard that there is polio now spreading in gaza, the world health organization is vaccinating in gaza now again. polio, that's not really to save the children of gaza, that's really to save

israelis and international community from the gaza polio and isolated, so the situation is certainly horrific and terrific, and we cannot really give proper english terms to describe this snackba catastrophe that is bef befalling our people, and also, mr. gomsia, about 70% of gaza's infrastructure has reportedly been destroyed, what are the consequences of that, considering that people are living in that situation? our palestinian institute for biodiversity and sustainability, actually did some research on this, the impact of war on infrastructure and water infrastructure, on the green cover in gaza, destruction of... agriculture, destruction of hospitals, destruction of universities, basically gaza is being made

unliveable intentionally by the signist regime, this is a subject of ongoing research, and we have published two papers already, and we will publish more soon on the destruction, and the fact is probably some... things can be reclaimed in gaza, some things cannot be reclaimed. one of the things that may not be possible to reclaim is the water equifer in gaza, which is now heavily polluted and has been depleted and israel has flooded the tunnels that the resistance has built with seawater, and this sips into the aquafar and making the aquafar salty and not you. usable for drinking. okay, now back to mr. barakot from vancouver, we've witnessed

certain things that are simply to put in simple terms, are horrific. for example, the targeting of schools and hospitals by the israelis, this is something that has reoccurred time and time again over the past 333 days, what are the implications of that, meaning and that in many cases people, had taken shelter in those places, in those schools and hospitals? yes, that's a very important question, because israel is intentionally destroying universities and schools in ghazza, and we know that the least ratio of illiteracy is in ghazza, meaning that the vast majority of our people in ghazza actually are educated and they can read and right, it's the lowest in the arab world, and so now with their schools being

destroyed and their universities and colleges being destroyed, of course, that's going to have immediate impact, obviously, but it also going to have an impact a strategic level, on our people education, and that's why it is important to prioritize the support for... the people in ghazza to on health and on education, these are the two most important sectors for to rebuild in ghazza, the other issue. is that israel wants to make ghazza a place where there is no future for palestinian generations and that it will achieve then its goal of displacement of the palestinian people where uh israel is saying this publicly and declaring this publicly

some of their ministers talked about they should nuke gazza and you nuclear weapon, the genocide that is happening, it's impacting of course all palestinian sectors, but particularly uh health and uh education. at the same time we see that the world is completely silent about this. okay, so we'll discuss about the response, the international response to that, but before we do so, mr. gomsia, what are the major obstacles in delivering humanitarian supplies? and because this is another issue that has shocked the world seeing that uh these uh humanitarian aid trucks uh are waiting behind these borders without being allowed to get inside? well israeli government basically said from the beginning from the morning of october 7 the israeli military chief war minister galan

said that basically no food no medicine water, no fuel into gaza, because we're dealing with human animals, so this has been a consistent policy, and you have to give it to those right-wing fascist ministers and and prime minister netanyahu, because they say what they do, and they are very clear about it, that they are going to engage in genocide, and they did engage in genocide, so that's what they did. and they gave specific instructions to their military regarding that and any means of production within gaza such as presence of water tanks, presence of greenhouses that produce food, they were all bombed so that there is no indigenous food production in gaza, the idea is to basically

genocide us, sorry to use it in such a... is a verb basically genocides, that's what they intended to do in in palestine, just in the gas trip, and even i received an email on the first day on october 7 telling me that paccur bags were coming to the west bank to do what we are going to do in gaza first, so they're coming here to do the same thing in the west bank, and they intend to do this genocide, that's why the... is case brought by south africa and international court of justice, that's okay, interestingly you brought up the international response to that, and it was the same thing mr. badakot wanted to talk uh about, so let's move to what the governments have done, we do know not really much uh, at least as much as has been expected uh hasn't

been done by these governments, but at the same time we are witnessing pro- palestine rallies uh around the... world and uh we are seeing grassroots movements in support of palestine. mr. badakot, what has this response been and how what role has social media played in that? yes, i think that there is a massive, massive support a popular level for palestinians and their rights and their struggle. israel have been exposed to the international on international scene and we see. "these are not just demonstrations, but they are also mobilizations of unions and student movements and political parties across the globe, that is expressing their anger and outrage at the israeli war crimes that they are witnessing, and of course social media have played a very important

rule in term of being an alternative to the media that it" dominated by us and by zionis and some of the arab reactionary regimes, people are able to follow the situation and here the voices from ghazza directly on what is happening on the ground and at the same time we have seen that you know a growing youth movement and student movement against israeli war crimes and genocide and not just that, but also expressing their support to the right of palestinian resistance, to defend palestinian people and to liberate palestine. "and this is very important and that's why we see that the main central slogans of all of these mobilization is that palestine will be free from the river to the

sea. at the same time, on an official level, we see that the allies of the designist regime are stepping up their support for israel, particularly the united states who is leading this, these war crimes not just against palestinians, but also against the..." people of the region, the us wants to colonize our region, they want to colonize west asia, they want to support these fascist regimes in the region, and on the top of these regimes is the scientist regime, and so the fight is not just in ghazza and it's not just about palestine, this is really a conflict between camp in the region led by iran and another camp led by the us, britain and designist entity, and this is so since you brought up iran and definitely the access of resistance is something that you wanted to talk about. let's bring back mr. gomsia, how

are countries like lebanon, iraq, yemen responding to the conflict, and what forms of resistance do you see emerging? uh, what i see happening uh in our region is very, very dangerous, the state of israel is run. by the most radical right-wing government in its history, and that's itself is saying lot, because as you know the whole zin project is radical from the beginning, so for us to say that now they are the most radical means that they are going to be really to point of creating a global war, of course they cannot win the global war, they will lose as will all human. lose because in the global wars in so... the 21st century we're talking about nuclear weapons, weapons from satellites, laser

technology, space age technologies. this is, this is a catastrophic for everybody, and i think that's what they are pushing for, hoping that they can win. he thinks netanyahu and people like trump and other people think that they can win these kinds of wars. okay, uh of course the question remains unanswered, we're talking about lebanon, yemen and uh iraq, but uh still since you brought up the issue of netanyahu and he is facing massive protests at the moment when we're speaking right now uh, what how do you see his future? we really don't have much time and i want mr. barakat to tell us just few sentences about those countries that allied uh the axis of resistance, so please mr. gobsia. okay, i'm sorry, yeah, i mean, basically these countries like lebanon and yemen are providing support to end the genocide,

basically, they are providing limited support, but as i said, the limited support can accelerate to become a full fledged war in which nobody wins, basically, and that's what netanyahu and the people around him want. okay, so mr. barakot, your... words on that, how do you see the future for netanyahu and of course considering the access of resistance? i think netanyahu and his government are going to be defeated, i think they are going to also be part of a strategic defeat to the united states and the west in general, the camp of resistance in the region is major force now, and we see that the support that yemen is providing, for example, in term of blocking and enforcing literally siege on some of the israeli airports, these

are significant developments. palestinians so many times have fought by themselves almost in isolated islands, but today the palestinian resistance is part of this access of resistance and camp of resistance, and and that's why we think... that you know what's happening is going to change the face of the region. yes, i agree with dr. mazen kumsia that there will be lot of human coast on this situation, but we are talking about a conflict that have started almost 100 years ago, like today. it was the first zinist, you know, conference in basel's, switzerland in 1897, and this design is. project is failing and grumbling from within and from outside, thank you very much, mr. khalid barakot, spokesperson for the masar badil movement from vancouver and mr. minsia. palestinian

scientist and author joining us live from bethlehem. i'm very sorry we really don't have more time to discuss that. thanks for sharing your thoughts and views with us on this edition of the spotlight. and thanks to all of you viewers for watching this edition. el conflicto empezó un día, una mañana que nos levantemos para a pescar, la policía inglesa querer arrimarse al barco para saltar, empezaron a amenazarme que me iban meter para dentro, se acercó la guardia civil y hubo un conflicto, si esto es español por qué nos echan de ahí, porque españa permite que nos echen de ahí.
