| 0:00.0 | Let's just be clear about what's going on. Sometimes it is necessary to pull back the curtain to |
| 0:04.9 | reveal what's happening behind the scenes. There is a deliberate and growing attempt to smear |
| 0:10.8 | and demonise and silence those who oppose the horror being currently inflicted on Gaza |
| 0:16.4 | by the Israeli state. It is in part a sign of panic because the cheerleaders and apologies |
| 0:21.6 | of this crime, you see, know that most general public do not take well to the atrocities |
| 0:27.3 | currently unfolding on their screens and they know that the worst is to come. I'm sorry to say |
| 0:33.1 | that. I don't say that kind of thing lightly but it is the truth. Now I'll show how this is |

| 1:24.6 | fact that actually most people in this country don't like innocent people being murdered, not least |
| 1:30.6 | with the active support of our government. So with these Israel saying they're going to reduce |
| 1:35.1 | their leading officials Gaza to a city of tents with Israeli officials saying that they're going to |
| 1:39.6 | annex parts of Gaza if not all of it with them openly demanding the mass expulsion of the Palestinian |
| 1:46.0 | people from their homes and saying that not that targeting avoiding targeting children's secondary |
| 1:52.2 | to all their other concerns. They're being open and honest about them in touch. What these newspapers |
| 1:56.8 | and politicians are trying to do is turn the tables on the people who oppose the war crimes. They're |
