2:00 pm
national law when they said if israel will be um pursuing genocide in gaza, we will take it into our own hands to block these ships, and it has to be remembered that many of the ships and especially the initial ships were um vessels owned by companies directly linked to israeli intelligence, for example zodiac of maritime owned by the offer family, this is a shipping company which has a history. of ferrying israeli agents across the region to carry out assassinations and so what happened was the yemini armed forces blockaded the red sea and have now uh extended that blockade to the indian ocean, but what did the axis of assistance do? it found the way to rather than relying on the port of elat which had the it dropped in the imports that were coming in by over 80%, it brought it to a stand still almost and you have. have to
2:01 pm
remember that the economic ramifications for the zionist entity of this entire period of time have been massive, it's never been hit as hard as it has been economically during this period, but anyway the axis of assistance saw to it to create a land bridge which went from the uae to saudi arabia to jordan and then into the zionist entity, and so what we're looking at is those in the of region and those internationally, have fear of this uh this justice divine justice which um is fully deserved by the palestinians and others in the region doing everything they can uh to block it, so personally i do not hold great hope in specifically the international criminal court, the international court of justice could be slightly different story, but i think the extent to which any decisions made there can have a... impact on the material reality is
2:02 pm
of yet to be seen, and i much agree with you that it's the balance of the international pressure, the uh inability to withstand some of the domestic pressure that comes upon some of the global powers, but most importantly the mechanisms of resistance within the region who are working day and night without sleep to try and force a different equation. in gaza. thank you. dr. marwa, where do you stand on that? do you think, as i do that uh, there will be no justice forth coming in the so-called international legal system uh, that being more or less lipstick on the pig of injustice that the world order has been, but that there may be accountability and a holding to account in political. change in
2:03 pm
western countries, where do you stand? well, of i'll tell you, george, from experience that how lebanon dealt with the non-existent international community and the ineffective unsc resolutions is that we took our land back, we kick designs out, by our own heroes, by the people who are native to the land, aka the resistance, so we really as natives of west asia. natives of the levent in specific the that region, me coming from a region that is um on the border with both occupied palestine and the golden heights, i remember on october 7th actually, i was with you on one of your shows and we spoke about what the prospects were and i was there, was in my house on the border between occupied palestine and the golden heights and told you that we support the resistance, we believe in the resistance and i still say that, why do i say that, because despite the fact that it's been six months that i have been displaced
2:04 pm
from my house right there where i was with you six months ago uh because of zinist israel uh not because they wanted to wait a war but because our people, my resistance in lebanon stood stead fast and said we will not let go of our brothers and sisters in gaza, we will not leave them be alone, we will engage and we in lebanon attacked posts, military posts for the zionist entity in a support of palestine so... hence why we didn't even wait, it started on october 8th at 6:45 am, i was there, i watched it first hand, i started reporting from there, this is great example, george of how we operate here, we don't wait for justice that that is going to come from the international community or from the unsc or from the global powers, because we know that it does not exist, we know that they operate in a way that only uh garners interests for their own colonial
2:05 pm
power, for their own imperial power, for their own entities, the likes of the cancerous zionist entity in our region, and if you look at the unsc draft resolution that was passed today, you could clearly... see that it is in the favor of zionist israel, by the way, yes we want gaza to breathe, we need some sort of a cease fire for the people to breathe, especially in ramadan, but on the same page you could see that it is actually in the interest of the zionist entity which has been losing very strategic loss in history that they have not been lived before, they have never experienced before this kind of level of of, well they're beginning to lose friends uh also doctor. marwa and uh as uh we go to air uh one of those might be the prime minister of canada, one of the zainast states uh most powerful friends. let's go uh to one of my most powerful friends, one of my
2:06 pm
oldest friends, dr. mala who joins us from canada in ontario, doctor, wonderful to see you again, any update you can give us, the... "the air is full of rumors that israel's friend justin trudo might be in his last days. yes, habibi, george, i'm talking of all this friend, just talk of yourself, you, it's a spirit by, youthful spirit, whether for you or for many others, and let me take the opportunity to say salam and the greeting to dear sister dr. marwa and sakina and your friend and comrad, frag, you know, in this..." segment so far, there are so many themes could be discussed at length and which we haven't come across and discussed yet, but let me start from canada, as you know, canada might be out, but the question who will be in is more important, because if it is the conservative then you'll be talking about a zionist government in canada, and that you
2:07 pm
takes me to the point, george, can you tell me where on this globe the uk was not and has not been complicit, can we name any continent where the uk or the great britain has not been complicit in genocide and crimes. if there is a justice on this word, so most leaders throughout the the the centuries of the uk and western entities should be rotten in jail, you work very hard against the the genocide of iraqi people, and you were accused, and what this led to, the lies of tony blair and george bosh. led to more than one million iraqi dead, you know, you want to take any other part of the world and you will see literally, literally, the rulers of the bridge, you know, throughout many centuries, their hands is socking with the blood of
2:08 pm
people from all over, from the philippine, to australia, to canada, look at the map, australia and canada, they are at the total different ends of. war and what the uk did with you know the first nation and aboriginous people, they committed massacres against them, george, and you knew it and you talk about it, so the question is what can we, you and me and all of us do to attempt to bring some justice, some justice to the victims of the uk and western imperialism and colonialism and the crimes, you know, maybe by election but the reason the sun never set on the british empire is buse god would never trust us in the dark, as you well know, but in ireland uh of course uh for 800 years before we started occupying other people, we
2:09 pm
occupied ireland and held it as a colony and visited uh faminen upon it. ireland didn't starve, ireland was... starved just like gaza was starved, is being starved. let's go back to frah huse in ireland for a perspective on that. fra, welcome. thanks, george. uh, as as i said earlier on, uh, just about what happened with the family and that's why the irish people have such affinity and such uh empathy for what's happening in palestine. we suffered... from military occupation, we suffered from massacers, we suffered from ethnic cleansing and partial colonization of the north of ireland uh in the 17th century, so i i only see the difference between what's happening in palestine and gaza today, which
2:10 pm
is on such inhuman monstrous scale, it's just a time scale, what happened in ireland in the 19th century with the farmen uh is exactly being replicated. today in gaza, starvation being used as a weapon of war, starvation being used as a form of subjucation and it appears that starvation is being used as part. of uh the zanist regimes and negotiations uh behind the scenes uh with hamas. i just touched earlier briefly that you know hamas was trying to get an extended cease fire in these uh talks that were being held in caro and paris and other capital cities uh and what they wanted to do was release the prisoners that they hold in small traunches uh uh kind of adherent to the good faith of the israelis on. ground, but it appears with this un resolution that rabbit
2:11 pm
has been pulled out of the hat and the carpet has been pulled from under hamas, it's just my personal opinion, but we have gone from what seemed to be hope for sessfire between six weeks and six months, which could then possibly be extended because once the guns go silent, it's harder to uh turn them back on again, uh, and what we're looking at is possibly two-week looking at food for hostages, which has been the stated goal of the des regime and the americans right up until the un vote that was veed three days ago, i think israel can say what it wants in the public domain, i think they are delighted, but this draft resolution has been passed, they will have all their hostages potentially released in one go, unablely once that happens nathan yahoo had two stated, two standard ins, one to free the hostages, as he calls them, and the second to destroy a mass.
2:12 pm
what an effect he may count is a release of the hostages, which uh kind of negates the uh pressure and leverage that he's under from his own constituents in israel, we aren't heard about the the deaths and the massacres and rapes in gaza, but are only concerned about the 150 plus pris, well everything will determine... be determined by the definition the word hostages, if i were uh negotiating it, i would be treating the palestinian prisoners, 7,800 of them, i'd be treating them as hostages, and when the resolution says the release of all hostages, i'd be saying that's all the israeli captives and all the palestinian captives see uh how that works out in coming days uh thanks for that f
2:13 pm
let's go back to the wall nargis is in london she has a question splendid hat nargus you need to you need to wear a hat to come on this show first of all george congratulations thank you uh you won your fighter for ' truth, thank you, and secondly, i wanted to uh salute and give a great salute of honor to gaza and to palestine and to all the forces of good who are now uh fighting and facing the forces of evil, we uh we should correct now, the masks are all have all fallen and we should... correct bush junior when he said that he was going against the axis of evil,
2:14 pm
but he was leading the axis of evil actually, and and we should also tell him that it's not god who spoke to him at the time, it was satan, indeed, and unfortunately for the israelis now, there's how i see it is, the end, pack and go, it's now time to give what belongs to the palestinians back, their land, their identity, their history, their roots, they will never go anywhere, all the maths say that with the access of resistance to that i salute to from yemen to lebanon to syria to ' iraq to iran to the silent ones, because we don't know who are the silent ones
2:15 pm
also here, and israel is becoming a liability, the israel was the one of the largest and most powerful tentacles of the zionist octopus, i always like to to to remind you about the zionist octopus, and this tantocol is... becoming a liability now and thanks to south africa, i applaud them so much because it's thanks to them this time, you know, the scandal... and so wide all over the world that now not everyone wants to be uh found in uh i don't know a nurenburg style tribunal or court that will happen soon and you have politicians uh starting to pill pull uh their pins from the game one by one uh
2:16 pm
nurenburg would have to sit in permanent session nargas thanks for that loki where do you stand on this uh recent uh security council uh resolution, does it provide in your view any basis for at least a lengthy cessation of of the genocide? so my understanding of it at this stage is that it only would provide for the next two to three weeks. what i also understand is the us ambassador. to the united nations tried to immediately say it was a non-binding uh ceasefire because it wasn't it covered by chapter seven um in the united nations protocols that then was challenged by experts on the issue and said it was binding um i i do also agree that it stipulates the release
2:17 pm
the israeli captives who are in gaza who it has to be noted that these captives have been uh being killed by the israeli military in its raids on gaza. in addition to that, i think it's also worth um pointing out that the uh russian um representative to the united nations attempted to insert the word permanent into the motion and was not able to do that and that is obviously. cause for concern, it's definitely uh not a good sign uh days to come will tell us how bad a sign it is, i'm sure uh, dr. frank gilly, another old friend of mine, one of the one of life's miracles, an italian protestant, go ahead,
2:18 pm
dr. frank, well george, um, it seems to me that um... "we have a lesson to learn and the learn is and the lesson is that at the end of the day israel listens only to force, only force, declarations, resolutions, statements, moral assertions, cut no eyes with the rulers of state of israel, nethani doesn't give a damn, so we have to find ways in which can bring force to..." bear upon the perpetrators the gaza genocide, certainly disinvestment bds, the campaign disinvestment is a strong, powerful tool, but it really hurts, it really hurts the state of israel and supporters, and i belong to a group, the lumbest group
2:19 pm
witness group, and we are actually agitating in that way, but i also i want to be bold enough to... say that it would be good if there was an international an international body like the was saying spain during the civil war or indeed when cuba sent fighters to south africa to angola to fight to be south africans, body of volunteers who would volunteer to in some ways to fight the israeli butcha of children. the children killers in gaza and also eventually possibly even states like brazil under lula even possibly south africa and maybe inshallah some arab state would actually take the initiative and do something forceful about
2:20 pm
this monstrous aggression which has completely disgusted every decent person. in the world and which we must not let go unpunished, punishment, the word punishment belongs ethics perpetrators of crimes should be punished, and we can begin to that by this investment by bds, but there other ways. i support the idea of body of volunteers um who would actually go and fight this oppression in palestine, i'm not sure. how that could uh happen uh, the um states through which it would be necessary for volunteers to pass, are members of what? ke memorably called the axis of assistance, so the boundaries of the dichotomy between the axis of resistance and
2:21 pm
the axis of assistance would have to alter for that to happen. tarek othman uh is a palestinian in luton in the south of england. tarek welcom, what's your take on these things? yeah, i mean the take is. is self-explanatory, as everyone has has has has been explaining so far, um, what we are seeing is of course important and i do think represents a sort of fork in the road for israel, the the the the the discussion it has now, the the choice it has now is to continue isolating itself, to force it into a position where it no longer has any friends, as it now is becoming orthened by by by by its usual western parents, or it could... at all it can decide to move towards a more reconciliatory path and and and become more peaceful and and fundamentally changes zionist um core, but i
2:22 pm
think related to what many others have been talking to talking about and what you have just mentioned, um, what is it that we can do, maybe we aren't able to go into um and fight with the access of resistances as you men. but what is it we can do here in luton, in london in the uk to replicate your some of your successes that you've had in rotstell for example and turn them into more powerful and effective um successes uh that can do more what we've seen in the united nations today. well, i'll be speaking in luton soon, i hope you come along to the meeting. i have some... ideas in that regard, it's not realistic to uh for people in western countries to travel to gaza, in any case
2:23 pm
frankly there are enough fighters in gaza, the resistance is not defeated, what is necessary is to change the balance of power in the region and the balance of power in the world, in the western world, the old world is die... that much is obvious, but the new world really is struggling to be born, that's why we are in this extended period of of under the rule of monsters, the power, growing power, no doubt of countries like russia, china, iran, south africa, brazil, is not yet powerful enough to say, halt, no more, no... borther, we will not accept any more of this, and if you don't stop it, we'll be landing our own ships on your beach that
2:24 pm
you hope to turn into beach front properties, we're not yet at that stage, that much is clear, but the axis of resistance in the region is growing more powerful. i suppose the question, i'm going to ask dr. marwa this, the question is, secure are those on the thrones of the access of assistance? can we look for any change in their behavior or any change in them being replaced by someone else? dr. marwa? well, change in their behavior, that's a big no because they are part of the colonial system that was installed in the region, they are part, they are an extension to the regimes found in the west, now them be ousted that has. to do with how powerful there uh like the natives of those countries are against those regimes and it's it's a big debate that could take a lot of time to research and talk about the
2:25 pm
minorities that are being oppressed and how can they stand in the face of these regimes but i have suggestion concerning what your lovely priest was suggesting and you said it's not applicable because you have access of assistance countries but you i don't want you to forget that there is lebanon and there's the mukawa in lebanon and there's the saraya mukaawama in lebanon which actually accepts anyone who would like to come and take part in the fight against scien israel, because you know we have 120 kilometers between us, give or take 100 plus or minus 120 kilometers between lebanon and occupied palestine and just as cianist israel brought about from all over the world merceries to help out in this genocide again. our people in palestine from all over the world, despite the fact that they say they are natives to palestine, which they are not, we can also do that. how? well, you have to go to the people who are capable of doing that, but lebanon
2:26 pm
always welcomes whoever wants to fight against scientis israel and to fight will always be there. i entered this arab world through the portals of lebanon in 1977. i've never been able escape, dr. marwa. thank you to you, to fra, to loki, our panelist, to all the studio audience, and my apologies for those of you who didn't get in. well, this has been. the first, but god willing, not the last, have it out with gallowe. if you want to join our studio audience, be up there, asking questions from that video wall, then go to our website, have it out withgallaway.com, it's been marvelous for me, hope it was for you, and if it was, come back, same time, same place, next week for have it out with gallaway, come and have a go
2:27 pm
if you think you're hard enough. this week on expos a, benjamin netanyahu vows to reject any calls to hulk the rafah invasion as he and joe biden intent. classify their staged public spat over zionist israel's genocide in gaza. now, following the statement made by former president donald trump that there would be a blood bath if he is not elected in november, leftist politicians and media personalities completely lose it on social media. and lastly, a recent politico ipso survey reveals that 50% of americans think trump is guilty and ought to be tried before the 2024 presidential election. stay tuned for expose.
2:28 pm
the truth is just a revelation away.
