In gaza that was expected to be safe place for displaced palestinians and this edition of spotlight we will be discussing the dire situation in the besige coastal strip and israels true intentions in continuing the war. Our guests in this edition are masojade chairman of the Islamic Human Rights Commission joining us live from london. And also saib shath, author and west asia expert from belfast. Thank you very much to both of you gentlemen, lets begin with mr. Masud shajare. Mr. Shajare, we have just heard that netanyahu has approved attacking rafa. Now this is a city that from the very beginning was deemed to be safe place for displaced. Palestinians, that is, according to israeli sources themselves. Why is this happening now at this point in time when uh hamas is putting forth a ceasefire deal, a prisoner swap deal and is looking for ways to end the war . Well, its very clear that israel, its this zinast estate from the outset was set to. Include palestinians from that land, ethnic cleanse them and by any means possible and grab as much land as possible, but this particular government in particular, it it actually been committed to ethnic cleansing and genocide long before 7th of october, to the extent that there has been even conflict internally in this regime, because of this policy, this particular government is committed to that, so will use any possible avenue, any possible opportunity to kill as many palestinion, kill as many children, kill as many women, and in their eyes, the children of gaza are the future palestinians and they need to be eradicated. That they need to be killed and this is why the policy since the 7th of october, which has been on leash, it shows very clearly that they are targeting innocent civilians with a brutality, without any mercy, in front of tv cameras and while the International Community is watching and at wars, united state and western allies are. Equipping and this zinust state to kill most effectively, most brutally and most systematically. This is not what is happening right now, the fact that netanyahu wants to use this opportunity to kill as many people, innocent people as many palestinian and ethnically cleans the gaza, its not a surprise and is not a new policy. Its been their policy and they are pursuing it so openly and so publicly and i think we need to wake up to this reality, otherwise otherwise this is going to go on and on and you know International Community is just doing nothing and and wishing for a change of policy which is not going to happen without enough pressure being put on designer state. Well, mr. Shajar, you raised some. Very important issues right there, but i would like to rewind what you said and go back to a part which is very important. You said all of this is happening in front of tv cameras and the International Community. Is watching, so of lets bring in our guest from belfast, mr. Mr. Shaath, im not sure if im pronouncing your name correctly, i hope that i do, but uh, israel is committing war crimes, uh, crimes that have been defined by International Law as war crimes. Israel has completely neglected what is known to be as the Geneva Convention uh, or uh, what the icrc itself claims to be rules for war, uh, so. What do you think the intention of israel is by so openly neglecting everything that um modern human beings uh believe to be the pillars of the modern society . Let me just grasp the last statement you said this modern Civilized Society which you talking about is all fake and and hypocrisy it was it used to be used just by the west. When they want to intimidate a country or impose sanction or just get their interest through and the International Law and International Community and International Organizations being formed after the Second World War like the United Nation and these bodies and geneva Even Convention and the special the fourth article of it and its all approven gaza is approved all of that was fake and it was just hypocry. The United States of america, as they claim the leaders of the free world, which means the western cam, they they themselves who showed us in gaza, they they they said they pretend with this zist entity as their outpost, military post in there, and i want to say its their Banana Republic in the middle in the middle of west asia, which is the thesign try to. That like ben gavir when said we are not a Banana Republic to this to the americans, there are a Banana Republic in there and they without the support of the United States, without the money, without the funding, without the arms, they would be disappear in weeks, and this is one point, the United States of america who can open the the the land rots from rafah or kar abu salem to bring the miles of. Miles from aid waiting in the borders of rafah can do it with one for call to order not to ask netanyahu and they would obey because they know without the United States of america they they cant but biden said there is no red line when he was talking about for netanyahu for the israelis means they can do whatever they want and the United States of america can can ask pretend like they care for the palestinians once they start the this air drops of aid which is landed in t of people and killed seven at some stage, the United States of america drop few barcels of gaza on this hand and in the other hand tons upon tons of ammunition going to the the sign entity supplying it, the same goes for the british, for the germans, for the french, for australia, for canada, all this western camps is becoming the. Discussed because they are involved in, they are complicit in genocide now, if we can hear the the rulings of the International Court about asking israel to follow one two three steps and provide this report and as well to take steps not to put the palestinians lives in harm way and to allow the the aid in and telling the governments who supply this. Entity with lot of with cash and with the ammunition and with that are complicit with it, this is a clear, but none listen since thesiness entity they they think they are shield by this western diplomatic shield or from any organization to impos in it anything. We witness the United States of america use three vetos against the seas fire in gaza to save the the people in gaza, the they can 30 . The children in gaza matrictions now and lot of them dying from hunger and starvation and we can see the roundabout of the kuwaiti kuwaiti roundabout in in western gaza become the call nickname the flower massacers since people go gather there waiting for any trucks to get them any kind of aid or flower to get to their starving children they risk their life and lot of them knows they can go there and not coming back. Since, but they have to do something for their kids, and this is all done at the watch of the racis of america, exactly, its all happening under the watch the us and also mr. Shajare uh the u. S. Also did some kind of what i would like to call a propaganda move to send some aid that at best can be described as drop in the bucket uh something that could only uh make some headlines for just few days uh sending some kind of uh meger amount of aid to gaza while it is supporting israel by sending tons of weapons all kinds of weapons that let alone as our guest in belfast just mentioned, all the support that uh it gives to the zionist entity in the United Nations by vetoing any attempt for a ceasefire. It really is outrageous, it is outrageous that this uh level of killing and brutality it goes on, its outrageous that uh. No attempt is being made to stop it and indeed there is veto taking place to make sure that it will not stop, there is a political cover forum this zianist state by united state and its western allies to make sure that the killing will continue with its brutality and with this totality. And indeed arms are being poured in free of charge, theyre not even being, theyre not even being sold to kill innocent people, Everybody Knows whats going on, and indeed, let us not forget that the corridor for aid to go into israel to go to this zinist estate and feed not just the pe zionis but feed the war machine. Is going through saudi arabia, emirate and and jordan, and you know oil is going through turkey, this is outrageous, its outrageous because its happening in front of the world population, we are seeing a day in day out, im sick and tired of actually seeing this, im sick and tired of seeing myself and my family crying their eyes out. In this month of ramadan for human beings being treated in that way and at the same time united state claim to be champion of democracy, champion of human right, champion of of a standing for the weak ones around the world, and this is outrageous, it has to stop, where is the democracy . 70 to 80 of western nations population. Is asking for cease fire now, right now, and you know these, these criminals who are in power, beat in britain, france, germany or united state, are indeed ignoring their own people, and then they claim that this is democracy. I i think what is now is very clear that all the institutions that when been set up to stop these sort of brutal war crimes, be united state, International Courts and so forth, are not fit for purpose, and we need to bring a change, and we need to bring a change not just in these international institutions, but citizens in britain, france, germany and United States need to ask themselves, do they want this direction of going towards sort of jungle . Law of jungle, people killing each other and being allowed to commit genocide in such open way, or they are responsible to bring an end to it, and they will put more effort, already, i take my hat out to people in britain, france, germany and others who are coming out in demonstrations day in, day out, but it needs to go far beyond demonstrations, we need to sort of say, enough is enough and i think we need to demand that there has to be some justice uh prevailing at this 11th hour. Youre absolutely right, mr. Shajara, and these grassroots campaigns have proven to be successful in inflicting heavy losses on corporations that support israel. Weve had uh mcdonalds and also starbucks announcing heavy losses. So mr. Shath uh could you please uh tell us, in your opinion, could the same grassroot campaigns puts the same amount of pressure on their governments who are clearly against their people . Will are still supporting israel . I just came today from a massive demonstration in belfast, i addressed it in front of the american counsulat and the people are outraged and the outraged at their own local politicians and in in ireland they are outraged at the irish Prime Minister and irish leaders of the biggest Political Parties going and patrick day which is the Irish National day to hand the shamrook to joe biden and they say you know like you dont go and shake hands with genocidal joke and the the the people are disgusted with the with with with their leadership with their Political Parties oven trying to implicit their Political Parties in supporting genocide. By going and sitting with joe biden that limit, its its its a massive call uh for them to uh to turn away from doing that, but tomorrow the whole thing will be, so i dont think the the United States of america even in the the congress the they issued bill for banning or taking over tok, because they think it is lot of the youngs are getting their news from there, not from the. Mainstream media because of palestine, because of the whats going on in palestine, the they want only the lies comes from the fox news or cnn or bbc to trickle to the people, they want to control them and make them ship people, they dont understand the people are educated and they can think and make decision for themselves, they do want to keep bombarding them with lies since studies says there is 80 of the people who read the news, they dont go to find out was it right or wrong to analyze, so they depend on that, and there is Huge Industry in the zinist entity in fake news and telling lies, since that entity itself was based on lies, lie, religious lies, national lies, ethnic groups lies, everything about that entity and its leaderships, designist entity, is lies and the United States of america, i want to say to my friend, which pretending the leader of the free world and supposed to defend the, as you said, mr. Shady, the week, they are not, and you know, and i know, they the one who committed genocide after genocide in vietnam, they the one who killed the the the first nation in in america, they they inhalated them, theyre the one who destroy a lot of countries in latin. America, they the one who killed nearly two million irakies in iraq under couple of lies, which is weapons of mass destruction and stuff like that, and is still stagnating the iraqi economy and looting everything in there, they the one who went in syria under the cover of the want to fight daesh which they created and they looting the oil and the gas from syria and destroying the country, they the one who want to make sure the ziist entity destroyed. Gaza and crying to netanyahu like the killing them softly, gently as biden said, its disgusting, and its about time, i agree with you brother, the new order supposed to be emerging and learning, because gaza exposed them all, so mr. Sajara, in your opinion, how much power do these grassroots campaigns have, and can they put enough pressure on the governments, or lets say. How far would these governments dare to go . Well, i think i think what the very clear that these governments they have now morality, theyre morally bankrupt, ideologically bankrupt, and you know when it comes to law and order theyre bankrupt, but never before uh, until now they were exposed the way that theyre exposed now, its true what happened in vietnam is true. All the things that the brother is is highlighting, but its really just now that masses in west are waking up to these realities, and i think this is the beginning of the end of the influence of these politicians, these politicians have to be punished uh when it comes to the election, they dont fear anything else, they have morality, theyve got no common sense or. Dignity, they need to be punished on the ballot uh on the ballot uh paper and and indeed i think thats gonna happen and indeed i think this what. We are seeing this mass awakening um that we are seeing right across western world b United States, france, germany etc. Etc. Despite the fact that they are using sort of dictatorial policies to stop these demonstrations, to legislate to stop this demonstration and to stop the voice of those who are standing up for justice and saying never. Again, but nevertheless is growing, its growing by minute, its growing by day, its growing every month, and so i would, my my response to your question is that this is not the end, but this is the beginning of the end of this sort of politics being used to con, not just people in western asia and around the world, but cunning their own citizens and and and this awakening. Is going to matter and his strength is becoming more uh powerful day by day. Youre absolutely right, mr. Shajar and just as mr. Shath just mentioned, he has come uh back from a mass demonstration in ireland, we have been seeing pro palestine demonstrations in countries that we would never imagine, and mr. Shath, in your opinion, uh, how far do you think these demonstrations can go, and we all. Also live in the day and age of social media, so how do you think social media can also increase solidarity with the palestinians and in order to bring a change . In in ireland its there is similarities because they suffered colonial and they suffered the same thing, so there is a connection and the struggle, but as well social media influencing big time since the people get their news straight from the source, the. Sometimes they get it even in arabic from someone whos been his house or her house attack and they see the images and they see the starvation and they see the effect of it and they cannot see any of that being even displayed on their own Mainstream Media and one of the other things in here which is been witnessing since from last november till now the respect these demonstration showing for the lebanese resistant and mainly for the yemany. Resistant, its amazing to see that and see how the people are proud to see there is Noble Movement like the yemenies and the lebanese resistant or the iraqi resistant coming to support the palestinians as they they compare that to what che givara done in the late 60s in in africa and supporting the african against the upper tide and trying to fight. So there is a movement growing to dismantle one of the slogans, they saying you have to dismantle this nice entity out of and take it out of this region a lot of the youngsters, jewish even voices start to say in that as well, so this is become a Grassroot Movement which will influence everything, and the first result you can see of that, the election of the honorable George Galloway as member of the parliament in britain, its he came to the platform on as for gaza and was elected for that and this movement will become bigger and bigger and bigger and it will change a lot of the ruling elite, you not going to see their faces again in offices, i hope so. And in order to wrap this up, mr. Sajade, are you hopeful to see this kind of change that mr. Shath just mentioned, particularly with George Galloway being elected as he mentioned right now, could we see . See similar changes in other countries, people coming to power that uh are actually in solidarity with palestine, well what happened with the election of george is, it really sets up a precedent that it is possible, it is possible to go in and actually defeat both main Political Parties and he got more vote. And the other four parties after him put all together and this actually greves gives the electorate and the the heart that see that it is possible to do this on the day of ballot on the election and i think it would repeat itself but i think as the other contributors said very clearly there are two awakening one is on the brutality. Of zianist state and its intention to kill and commit genocide, and for the fact that Political Parties in the west are supporting it in. Every way and are duplicit in committing those genocide, and then on other hand, its what the solution is, the resistance is being praised by every freedom loving person around the world, because no one else, no one else whatsoever is taking any step to stop this genocide, and people beat in yemen or elsewhere are actually sacrificing their. Lives, sacrificing their wellbeing, the sacrificing very little that they have, but to stop this genocide taking place, and that is being appreciated right across the world, so all the propagandas that was being were running out of time, those are being exposed. Thank you very much, im sorry to cut you off right there, but were running out of time, mr. Masujade, chairman the Islamic Human Rights Commission from london, and also miss saib shath, author and west asia expert from belfast.
