0:00.0 | Israel launching a war of aggression against Iran while simultaneously committing a live stream |
0:05.7 | genocide underlines once again that this is a rogue state which the West will allow to get |
0:10.8 | away with absolutely everything. Now it is all too rare that I get an opportunity to talk about, |
0:16.7 | expose Israel's genocidal behaviour on national television. Because of Israel's sudden attack in Iran, |
0:22.5 | I was able to do so. Before we discuss this further, here's what I said. Oh, and you go first on |
0:29.1 | this. Even Trump said, please don't do this. I'm sorry to say it, but I think it's absurd. |
0:33.9 | We never discussed this on this program, Israel and Palestine. There's a Western ally committing genocide in full view of the world. And the last time this was discussed when I was |
0:41.8 | on this program was November 2023. Like, it's ridiculous. We discuss it a lot, actually. Well, |
0:46.2 | not when I'm on. And I've been on so many times since then. It's ridiculous the way the British |

1:06.0 | is committing a pogrom against the Palestinians and the West Bank. |
1:09.3 | It has invaded Syria. |
1:13.1 | It has raised much of southern Lebanon off the face of the earth. In this particular case, under international law, |
1:19.7 | you cannot launch a war of aggression, which is what this is under international law, |
1:24.4 | without any provocation. You cannot do that. You cannot say we think they might |
1:29.2 | attack us in the future. You can't do that. But they have done it and they've done all the other |
1:33.8 | stuff you mentioned, although I might phrase it differently. So whatever they're doing, |
1:39.5 | they're doing. But this is the point, isn't it? Israel has impunity. Israel has been told by the Western states in essence, you can get away with anything. And that's the consequences. Look, the fact that Israel repeatedly invading Syria is not even judged to be newsworthy is itself telling. Israel can behave in ways that other states simply can't get away with. |
2:02.4 | What do you think? You know, the fact we have a state, which is nuclear armed, by the way, |
