This man has told no lies about our government.. and as he said I have been horrified ever since I figured all this out on my own since the war on Gaza last year. I did so much research to understand why it was happening & why my country was supporting it and why our news outlets were not reporting the truth on the war to its citizens accurately and without bias. Unadulterated discuss. But then I thought America has always been this way since its existence.. Fantastic interview

Ratio of civilians to military personnel killed on the 7th was 1 . 4 : 1 - lower than any of the iTf "mowing" operations, which has a ratio of 7 : 1 According to UN OCHA data from 2008 to 2022; The collateral damage on the 7th was significantly lower than any of the ITf "mowing" operations, which had a ratio of 7:1 with 1,023 military personnel out of 6,541 total. On the 7th, with 473 military (418 were iTf military personnel, 55 belonged to the police) out of 1148 total, the ratio of civilians to military personnel was a mere 1.4:1 When including all casualties, not just deaths, the collateral damage ratio of the "mowing" operations is a staggering 162:1 From the 161,233 accumulated civilian casualties over only 14 years of "mowing" operations. A 162 :1 ratio means that for every 162 civillians, 1 military personnel is a casualty. The 7th had a ratio of 1.4:1, more than a hundred times lower. The 473 are - 55 soldiers, 13 privates, 59 corporals, 200 sergeants (45 of whom were sergeant majors), 48 commanders, 32 lieutenants, 5 lieutenant colonels, 6 colonels, 37 officers, 10 inspectors, 6 intendents, and 2 Lance Corp.

Why not Dr Shiva?

[@greetandries99]

@@mariag3605it is important to try and get as many votes for independents. Haven’t heard of her. Jill is absolute anti-war. This is imperative to stop the deep state. The more votes for one the better. Also needs 35% to win. They keep their gaslighting about vote for her is vote for Trump. See it for what it is. Gaslighting. Has to be a vote of moral integrity of all Americans

[@kraka2oanIner]

I'm attempting to have people simply LOOK... at What STEIN & WARE have to offer. I'm not CONSIDERING Jill and Butch...I'm ABSOLUTELY voting for them, as I did in 2016!

[@Weareupallnight2getchucky]

Thank you for all the work you are doing - your channel is great!

[@jylyhughes5085]

Excellent. Matt is brilliant. ✊

[@brianwheeldon4643]

Thanks ME... Matt Kennard and Declassified are Britain's equivalent to Max Blumenthal and Chris Hedges rolled into one. Matt and team are independant motivated, and possess that inner strength and moral character so necessary to do the work they do. Great interview.

[@mouksb2000]

Great interview and look forward to reading The Racket - new big fan of Matt Kennard and Middle-East Eye just gets better and better. Masha'Allah - Shoukran bezaaf to you both♥

[@kittysawtelle5552]

Love this Matt Kennard.

[@rocketmanzimm]

Powerful interview. Definitely going to forward to others and read the book. We all need to push for change. Free Palestine! 🇵🇸

[@sfkeepay]

Worth recognizing here that Democracy Now! is an exceptional news program that’s been covering all these issues for many years, and they’ve had Chomsky on their program dozens of times… Fantastic interview. I’m buying his book…a great way to help support courageous journalism.

Phenomenal interview

[@Raks78]

Long live the resistance. Keep speaking up, keep exposing these liars

Share this, his book is brilliant we all need to wise up with these truths. Barb

You can as far back as the Roman Empire, maybe earlier. England, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, France all played a part in imperialism before the USA existed

[@ferozahmed2065]

Excellent interview and kudos to Matt for extraordinary work

[@mavisharris692]

Fantastic discussion 👏

[@ouagadougou4672]

Yep. Exactly. And why is the US military defending commercial ships in the Red Sea? Should my young brothers be sent, with my tax dollars, to defend corporations with their lives? Were my young brothers and sisters told that this is what they are doing when they sign up for the US military?

[@shutit7949]

If u sign up for the US military that's on u

[@DrVictorVasconcelos]

Because they're not random commercial ships. The Houthis seemed to have inside information because they were right. One shipping company had to admit that they were lying about the destination and were indeed going to Israel in the story they told to claim insurance. They're bringing US military hardware to Israel.

[@kevoreilly6557]

Umm … it’s the world’s largest shipping lane and was exactly why Bretton Woods was set up?

[@notme9784]

​@shutit7949 in the US, it is primarily poor people who join the military as their only option for accessing 3rd level education, I agree US military is an evil imperial force but I also can't blame individual soldiers for joining. For some people it is the only way to provide for their kids.

[@homapirzadeh3930]

Thanks for the valuable informations by Matt Kennard! 👍🙏

[@jamesho8820]

I have become increasingly disenchanted, disillusioned and disgusted with the US gov't for its nefarious, duplicitous activities worldwide. This journalist merely confirms my impressions.

[@mildredrodriguez8226]

I learned at a young age that deception was the name of the game. I was and still am disillusioned by it all. What's the purpose of our strife?

[@JaseboMonkeyRex]

I agree... the veil has fallen, and decent American people need to make a choice about what being an American means.... Do you support never-ending war mongering? What are American values? And what are you going to do to hold your government accountable?

[@osiruskingdread]

Once you “see” the TRUTH you cannot unsee it… next is the choice one makes..Hmmm
