do not have moral case. yeah, okay, we're out of time, unfortunately, let me thank my guest karoim sharara in beirot, and clive menzies in london and thank you for watching this episode of the spotlight on press tv, i've been your host and i'll see you next time. politics is something integral. youtube is like how i started my journalism, it began on. on youtube, we are fighting a war on multiple fronts, we're fighting one media, we're fighting on the ground, but it it's it's it's a collective effort, we are at war, the west has habit of stealing the religions of the middle east and then weaponizing them against the people of the middle east, the americans, the israelis, uh, the united kingdom do not respect the value of human life. 'so you know we all have to be soldiers on the front line, we have to keep fighting. i want to speak directly to people in gaza, people in the west bank. victory will come, victory will come, victory will come, this is story of an unrival champion of the african continent'. who captivated audiences with his skill and determination, hero who made history with a

karim sharara, what do you think about the us's position uh on this genocide? how can uh the genocide that's been carried out uh in in gaza, how can washington push for a ceasefire, but at the same time provide israel with the tools and the arsenal and the all-out support to continue killing innocent women and children, and to highlight that, it's not just in gaza anymore, innocent women and children have been killed in lebanon, just uh in the wake of this recent attack in uh the southern suburbs of beirot, uh, number of children have been killed, uh, break down this us and western hypocracy regarding uh the... has genocide and israel's regional crimes for us please. well, that's easy. uh, it's a war that the us wants, but uh, but it's making it look bad. uh, it wants it, because the israeli goals largely align with what the us is aiming for, and that is uh, for its colonial outpost, for for. to be the to reign supreme in the region unchallenged, but when you have movements that that are able to challenge is baby dominance of... the region, well, you need to ta

sharara, let's jump right in and give us your perspective on uh the recent uh israeli escalation of violence and the terror attacks uh that have been focused now in on lebanon uh well i guess you could uh quite uh confidently say that israel is doubling down its policies against the resistance whatever these policies are may they be terrorism or pre-approved operation. whatever they may be uh, but taking into consideration what we've pagers and receivers operations, terrorist operations that the israelis have uh have committed, and then following that up with what is presumably at anything so far, we cannot be sure, but it's safe to say that, is the target for the israelis, so uh, though we don't know if this is the case yet, it's safe to say that... he is the target, we don't know if he has been murdered, if he was truly targeted by the israelies, but they were after him, so if you take into consideration the fact that they're pursuing the head of operations of hezballah, the they're not only trying to create a disconnect between the leadership and the and and and the lower ranking freedom

standing by for a while i'm sorry to jump in omar but let's bring in karem from bayrut and uh car sharara uh looking at this uh day two of the carpet bombing i'm not too sure if uh uh it is uh started yet or not uh at this point uh however what what are your thoughts? about the way that this regime has uh targeted lebanon, well it's as you put it, it's nothing short of carpet bombing, i mean of course the israelis will say just as the just as they said in gaza and as they used to say during the july war that they're targeting hezbollah strongholds or hezbollah fighters and what not, but the immense the sheer number of casualties, i mean it's staggering, you have five marters over the just... over the past day, this is huge, these are civilian casualties, they not only bombed uh, like what they consider to be frontlines, they also bomb civilian infrastructure, mean you have people trying to leave their hometowns in the south heading further into lebanon, and the israelis bomb roads, bomb bridges in order to make it even more difficult for them, so a trip that would usually take an hour or

own people. yes indeed, thank you so much bruna. going to go back to beirot and uh speak with karim sharara, political analyst um who is with us. karim tell us a little bit um it's been a mere 15 minutes maybe or even less. from this latest blast, huge blast that uh, as you mentioned, three to maybe four blast happened one after the other, so what is the situation right now, there any further developments? well, from from what i can gather, i'm looking at images here, looking at videos, like we said, it was an absolutely massive strike, and i'm looking at pictures right now that seem to be from the area of hard. like in beirot and i'm looking at the the craters on the ground, i mean the role is completely destroyed, it it is a massive crater, and um, there there seems to be some indication that some of the some of the missiles launched did not did not explode, i'm not, i'm not sure about that yet, but i mean i can see the craters, the road is completely destroyed uh, but as for the other, i mean i'm seeing one one huge crater here, i'm not sure about the other buildings and... surrounding d
