It’s an unyielding resistance against the oppressive, suffocating grip of occupation and the callous denial of the most basic human dignity ... The battle for justice in Palestine is not merely a political struggle. It's an elemental moral battle ... If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing. I implore every person of conscience, regardless of their origins or beliefs, to stand steadfast with the Palestinian people in their unwavering quest for justice." - attributed to Malcolm X

An overwhelming majority of Germans disapprove of Israel’s military offensive in Gaza, a new poll found on Friday.

Some 87% of those surveyed said the Western countries should put more pressure on the Israeli government to ensure the delivery of more humanitarian aid to the Palestinian civilians in Gaza.

In 1948 after Israel declared independence (end of british rule), Jordan army crossed the Jordan river into Judea & Samaria (known as the west bank by MSM) and east Jerusalem. The Jordan army killed or drove away the Jewish people. The Jordan army then destroyed Jewish property or took it over. Jordan then encouraged Jordanian settlement in the occupied land. Jewish property not destroyed became occupied by Jordanians. After the Israeli victory in 1967 and Jordnian disillusionment with their expansion effort (1988), Jordan revoked the Jordanian citizenship of "palestinians" in Judea & Samaria (known as the west bank by MSM) and east Jerusalem. For the most part "palestinians" are leftover Jordanian colonist (Gaza residents more closely tied to Egypt). The homeland of the majority of "palestinians" is Jordan.

Currently, I am reading “Peace comes dropping Slow:” my life in the Troubles, by Denis Bradley, back-channel man in the Northern Ireland Peace Process. The title comes from the pen of 1923 Nobel Literature winner W B Yeats, himself no stranger to Ireland’s revolutionary struggle. John Hume, a Nobel Peace Prize winner and the main architect of the Good Friday Peace Agreement, features prominently in the book for good reason. Unfortunately, there is no one of his stature in American,Israeli or Palestinian public life to effect a path to peace. Had Hume lived to see this eruption of violence,then I suspect he may have had a more positive influence on the EU’s subservience to US policy. Hume recently received an accolade from of his former implacable political and cultural opponents: he referred to him as the greatest Irishman in History. I have lived through a life time of injustice, discrimination and second class citizenship leading to violence, bloodshed, murder and carnage. The subjugation of one group by another will never bring peace. Learn from Hume.

[@thomassenbart]

Yeah, completely false on all counts. You cannot use Apartheid and Israel in the same breath. The word simply does not apply. The same for genocide if one knows the meaning and context of the word. Civilian death in war is not genocide. Genocide means the deliberate mass killing of man, woman, and child in an attempt to exterminate a specific group of people, i.e., the Holocaust, the Holodomor, Rwanda, Armenia etc...If your government uses the population as human shields as well as hospitals, schools, private homes as military infrastructure and these are hit by bombs, the fault lies with the government. Also, Hamas started the war, retreated into Gaza City and its 500 miles of tunnels, and continues to fight and use civilian deaths, (greatly exaggerated btw) for propaganda.

Thank you this. This man is well spoken and can speak on this subject objectively. His points really show the power of the narrative. I'm a 59 year old American. South Africa was an apartheid state and was once proud of it. And in the west I was one of those in college in the 80s asking my college to divest from Apartheid South Africa. Until this year I don't remember hearing any media figure say Israel is an Apartheid state. I still don't hear corporate media call it that and they lost credibility with me. I was a lifelong Democrat. But that party as well refuses to say "we are backing an Apartheid state" . Instead they say"we are the party of diversity, equity and inclusion". And then they 100 percent support Israel to be an apartheid state. They just never admit it. But we can all see it now, and maybe some Democrats are ok with apartheid but they can't sell that and DEI at the same time because it shows they are just hypocrites. So I left the party.

We all know that John is brilliant but I also want to commend what is clearly an excellent journalist and human being!

[@W.Khairi]

Valuable interview thanks for everybody

[@YOLOjst1s]

The only reason its banned in usa. Imagine what will happen with this nation if the press has freedom to share news about the affairs and actions by the government.

[@Sam-ql4ze]

This has opened my eyes to how much propaganda is in our “journalism “

Wonderful from Mearsheimer as always. Fantastic!

Brilliant interview! Free Palestinian people from oppression and apartheid AND the illegal settlers

[@jademat31]

We need a longer interview with John!!

[@WME460]

Love to watch and listen to this guy John.

[@happyguy650]

My heart goes for the Palestinians, Ukranians and all those who have to endure the horific experiences of war.

[@nope-ot9pg]

Ukraine, yes. They didn't start the war. Hamas started their war. And think the world is behind them and came out with their global intifada plans. Apple polisher.

[@GottaWannaDance]

@@nope-ot9pg So, you finally broke away from playing candy crush. Now you've been on YT for 1 week, yet you think you know it all. Learn history. Read and reread. Hit the library. Hit the books. THEN watch the online truth and the online snot that gets passed around. It's worse than a cancer.

[@cavannaro1]

By Ukrainians, you mean the 14,000 ethnic-Russian Ukrainians that were killed by….Ukraine??

[@Jeffshighonlife]

There’s an ethnic cleansing going on and I get screamed at and called all types of names when I point it out. Its a crazy world we live in

[@andrewgoldman9019]

Totally agree. For some reason, opposing the Israeli apartheid state's genocidal campaign in Gaza makes you "anti-Semitic" and we are expected to consider genocide to be self-defense. Insane and tragic.

[@celjac7486]

We r NOT FREe either. We r under zi,o,n,i,s,t RULE!!!! Wake up people!!! Freedom of speech, the right to protest……..all going down the drain!!!! Watch out!👀💪

I think KZbin has also done a phenomenal job exposing the Palestinian tragedy.

[@YakrifZee]

Well, Trudeau does and he's the Emperor of Canada so what he says goes.

[@shafeesaif3417]

I’m sure there’s a few Canadians who feel the same.

Mearsheimer is Putin's little doggie, but you believe him. I bet you're a big Scott Ritter fan too.
