It's how do we miss that? Because it's Sunday night at at

(00:25):
10. So it's time for that next
weekend. We will not be doing a live show
because I'm going to be on vacation with the fam.
So we're going to get this one in.
This is our quote UN quote Halloween show.
So let me change my my my tie tothe spooky orange.

(00:46):
I can do that real quick. Well, I got to wait for this
thing now, damn it. OK.
You tried to be extra. My stream deck.
Freezes trying to be extra. Now we're going to be orange,
spooky orange yes, golden monarch we're orange for
Bitcoin. Ha ha ha ha, no, we're not fuck

(01:08):
Bitcoin. Hi, everybody over on sub SEC
that's watching seems like there's a lot of people over
there. Thank you for watching.
Good to see everyone there. And we're going to do a, a, a
new show tonight about Venezuelaand then about Israel and all
the war crimes that they're pulling just this week, because
we do that every week. It's a fuck Israel segment.

(01:30):
But this time like 3/4 of the show, it's going to be fucked
Israel. So I mean, there's, that's,
that's just the way the news is going on.
Fortunately, I, I would, you know, otherwise you're talking
about ICE or you're talking about the political stuff that's
going on in this country, you know, the shutdown of the
government and there's plenty other people that are covering
those things. Honestly, what I don't see

(01:54):
enough coverage of still is the devastation that's happening in
Gaza of the nonsense, quote UN quote, ceasefire.
That's not really a ceasefire and all the other stuff.
You had a pretty good eye on thenews with Colin on Wednesday
night, right? Last night we had go ahead.

(02:17):
Talk about Venezuela. Yes, you did.
You know that Yep, talked about the stuff that's happening in
the UK with Palestine action, people that were arrested so.
Right, and not just. Arrested.
Go see that. Go check that out. 36 minutes,
no jury, right. That was the the segment.

(02:41):
Right. Like Craig Berry wrote.
That one. So yeah, we're going to we're
going to do a long video tonight.
I don't normally do that, but there was a really good video
from Double Down News about October 7th.
And of course that's long since put to bed, but we're going to
go through this video and watch the whole thing and kind of

(03:05):
critique it. But yeah, that's that's going to
be a good time. Not really a good time.
It's going to be fucking horrific.
And yes, Fred Edward, fuck Israel, as we always say on the
show. Vicki Adams, good to see you.
Thank you for posting about Justice for Aspen.

(03:25):
We are going to talk about that as well.
I put out a post earlier today on Sub Stack and we talked about
it last week also. But we are hosting a live stream
fundraiser on Wednesday night inplace of INN news, starting an
hour earlier at 8:00 PM Eastern that's going to feature Misty
Winston having a conversation with Halo and Aspen.

(03:46):
I believe we're going to have Dissent in Bloom joining us as
well to talk about Georgia prisons as well as autism in
prisons and the research that she's done since she's learned
about Aspen's case. And we're going to talk about,
and then we're going to have a special Jessie Jett American
Tradition concert, which will bereally cool.

(04:08):
Jessie's going to play a set that has been requested by Aspen
and her family and and Halo, andthen we're going to open it up
and we'll allow for people to request things if they put
something into the GoFundMe. So that way we can have some
fun, we can raise some money andand everybody wins.

(04:30):
So before we get started, I knowthings are really tough.

(05:17):
So we have got a long lineup of stuff to get to a lot of
Indymedia award honorees tonighttoo.
I, I, when in doubt, you go to the best of the best because
you're going to find stuff that that you can rely on.
And that's why we put those together in the 1st place.
So first story we're going to get to is not well, let me let

(05:40):
me fix one thing first. It's not an Indie Media Award
honoree, but a top independent journalist.
Arturo Dominguez over at Decolonized Journalism does a
hell of a job, and he's been doing it a long time for Unicorn
Riot, for a bunch of other independent outlets, and on his
own as a freelancer at Decolonized Journalism.

(06:02):
Now he put in experts to announce intervention in
Venezuela as the US military buildup continues.
I don't think that's much of a surprise to anyone, right?
Experts condemn EU s s recent actions in the Caribbean.
It stretched against Venezuela and its history of coercion in

(06:22):
Latin America. That's a kind way of saying
regime change, right? So we know what's been
happening. Last week, 3 extrajudicial or
three United Nations specialistsin human rights, extrajudicial
executions and the internationalorder issued a statement

(06:44):
denouncing EU s s actions against Venezuela.
How many bomb, How many boats have been bombed now, like just
out of the water? I think we're up to 10 reef.
Seven or eight, I think. Yeah, something like that.
I thought we were up to as many as ten.
No, not. Kept count specifically but.
That that could be. All right, the.
Experts decried the covert and clandestine actions that the US

(07:09):
is employing while condemning the history of similar
interventions and the lasting harm the United States has done
over decades in Latin America. Fair.
The experts are now warning of the dangers of U.S. military
buildup. We're going to talk about that
in a second. That the recent announcements by
the White House regarding the use of lethal force in

(07:30):
international waters are withoutlegal justification, for sure.
And that possible covert or military, direct military action
against Venezuela constitutes a violation of the UN Charter,
which they don't give a shit about.
They essentially called out the United States for fabricating

(07:52):
enemies to justify a supposed right to defense resulting in
extrajudicial murder in the Caribbean.
Yeah, that's what's been happening, Quote, overt action
and threats of using armed forceagainst the government of
Venezuela by the United States violate Venezuela's sovereignty

(08:12):
and the UN Charter. Yes, and Trump doesn't seem to
give a flying fig, as the revolution continues.
Just pointed out, when did the US ever care about the UNI?
Don't know, right, Harps? Good.

(08:32):
Good to see you everywhere. Marla Williams.
How are you, Sir? All right, so according to this
statement, the experts have beenin contact with the United
States and have urged leaders tocease unlawful, unlawful attacks
and threats and respect international law and reaffirm
its commitment to multilateral. Whatever that means.

(08:55):
And then it continued to prompt them with a strongly worded
letter to adhere to the purposesand principles of the UN Charter
that they wipe their ass with daily.
A request that the admin seems willing to ignore.
Obviously based upon the deployment of the aircraft
carrier Gerald Ford and its strike group to the Caribbean.

(09:19):
Right? The USS Ford's carrier group,
which includes 5 destroyers and is currently deployed to the
Mediterranean, adds the additional troops sent to and to
the additional troops that were sent to Trinidad and Tobago.
Allegedly, they're also now talking about using Puerto Rico

(09:39):
as another base for this operation, potentially.
The USS Gravely, which will later be followed by the US
Marine Corps 22nd Expeditionary Expeditionary Unit, Blah Blah
Blah, is officially in Trinidad and Tobago to conduct military

(10:00):
exercises over several days and is set to leave on October 30th.
It should be noted that Trinidadis just 7 miles from the
Venezuelan coast at its nearest point.
Now what's really interesting isI remember that when there were
other military exercises happening in the Baltic Sea
right around the summer time of 2022 and about three months

(10:26):
later, Nord Stream went to fluid.
So would there be some operations happening underwater
too? Quite possibly.
Look for an Internet cable possibly to be cut.
Statement for the UN experts came just three days after the
UN Security Council warned of mounting risks to regional peace

(10:50):
after the extrajudicial killingsof alleged drug smugglers and
fishermen. I wouldn't even call them a
legend because they the only person that's alleged to they
are is the Trump admin. But they've produced no receipts
and no admit, you know, no evidence at all.
So how can you say that they're even alleged?

(11:13):
It's you know, it's literally just blatantly accused by the
Trump administration without evidence. 3 experts are George.
Provided 0 to anybody. Right.
Trust us. Just trust us.
Bro we killed this guy but he was horrid.
We took out that boat. It was terrible.

(11:35):
It was covering drugs. It was carrying drugs, fentanyl,
cocaine, even though cocaine doesn't really come from
Venezuela. That's a whole other story,
right? So you have your three experts
here, right? You got one who is an
independent expert on promoting a democratic and equitable
international order. OK.

(11:57):
You've got Ben Saul, who's a special rapporteur on the
promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental
freedoms while countering terrorism, right?
And then you also have another special rapporteur, this one on
extrajudicial summary of arbitrary or arbitrary
executions. So you seem to have a team of

(12:17):
experts that know what they're talking about when it comes to
this stuff that are all saying that, yeah, this is a problem,
that they're violating sovereignty, that they're
breaking whatever international laws and treaties we've all
signed to and agreed to mutually.

(12:39):
But for whatever reason, we're just allowed to violate it and
there are no consequences. There are no repercussions.
And it just happens at some point there might be
repercussions, but we haven't seen any happen quite yet.

(13:00):
Now, if what we have seen in repercussions is in trade, in
people moving their business away from doing business with
the United States in BDS effectively also because the
tariffs have made it to the point where they really have no
choice but to seek elsewhere in some cases because we've made US

(13:22):
goods too expensive for them. Right?
So that's the first half of what's happened in Venezuela.
The second-half of it came from an Indie Media Award honoree, an
anti war Dave de Camp. And this happened the other
night. US flies B1 bombers near the

(13:42):
Caribbean in the latest provocation aimed at Venezuela.
I I listened to somebody talkingabout how they just want to get
Maduro, how they just want to get the oil, but I seem to
recall Maduro basically offeringthem the oil.
If I'm correct correct. It's not just about the oil.

(14:03):
They also want a puppet that they.
All of it. That they can control and his.
Friend, they want complete control.
Sure, sure they do. But I think that there's it's
more about getting rid of Madurobecause he's perceived to be a
socialist, even though he's moreauthoritarian.

(14:27):
But he was also, and I he was elected, he won an election last
year that everyone else in the world certified and signed off
on and their Supreme Court, people like, Oh yeah, the
Supreme Court that's friendly tohim or whatever.
No, they're Supreme Court. They're they have independence.
But yeah, it's it's crazy to me that.

(14:50):
So we're flying 2B1B bombers over the Caribbean on Thursday
in the latest provocation in theregion aimed at Venezuela,
right? But it's not just Venezuela.
I think they also want to provoke Petro.
There's Petro in Colombia has also been pretty outspoken

(15:11):
against Trump, right? Yeah, Yep, least recently.
Right, AUS official told the Wall Street Journal, Who?
So take it with a grain of salt.A because it came from AUS
official and B because it came through the Wall Street Journal.

(15:31):
But the bombers took off from Dyess Air Force Base in Texas on
Thursday and flew near Venezuela.
When asked about the report, Trump said it was false.
But the bombers were spotted on flight trackers, and other U.S.
officials confirmed that the flight took place.
So like usual, somebody's lying and it's usually Trump as usual,

(15:55):
right? Last week, the US flew 3B52
bombers near Venezuela in what the US Air Force called a bomber
attack demonstration mission. Fucking Reagan used to do fly by
Russia and shit, you know, like same kind of shit.

(16:19):
U.S. special OPS helicopters have also flown within 90 miles
of Venezuela as part of a major U.S. military buildup in the
region, which has involved the deployment of eight naval
warships so far. Provocations come amid reports
that the US is preparing to bombVenezuela.
What did they do again as a sovereign nation to justify

(16:42):
being bombed? I guess they don't have to do
anything anymore. And as Trump is threatening to
launch strikes against alleged drug shipments on land, they
still have yet to produce again,any evidence about any kind of
drug trafficking. While the IT is the pretext for
the military campaign, U.S. officials have been clear that

(17:05):
the real goal is regime change in Venezuela.
I seem to recall doing a report that Victoria Nuland went to
South America last year and for us saying literally watch this
space for a regime change operation.
I honestly think that this was started under under Biden slash

(17:27):
Harris and that this was just continued by the Trump
administration. This was already on the books
and plan. the US has also bombedat least 7 alleged drug boats,
again alleged only by the US without evidence in the
Caribbean and two in the easternPacific near Colombia.
Like I said, they are also goingafter Petro.

(17:49):
This is personal the US War War Department, the Department of
War has provided. So stupid.
Thank you. No evidence to back up its
claims about what the vessels were carrying or to back up its
assertion that the people it hasbeen killing are narco
terrorists, a term that the administration has been using to

(18:12):
justify extrajudicial executionsat sea and support antiwar.com.
Whatever. Support Dave de Camp.
Yeah, go do that. He actually did a one hour sit
down with Ryan Christie on at last American Vagabond yesterday
and it was the first time they've ever done an interview

(18:34):
together. They they were like Ryan, they
came out during the interview that Dave's like I was looking
it up and it's like, have we done amazingly never happened
before? So hopefully it won't be the
last. It was a really good sit down
conversation between the two of them.
Those are two of the guys that Irely on most for what's really

(18:55):
happening in the Middle East in Venezuela with the duopoly and
the two party illusion that they're trying to push forth.
So again, last American vagabondandantiwar.com, go
follow them both support independent media.
We amplify and talk about independent sources here like

(19:15):
Arturo, like antiwar.com and because we do so, we are not
monetized by YouTube and therefore we ask you to support
us in other ways if you can do so.
The best ways to do that are a cash app, dollar sign, Indie
News Network over at co-fee.com/indie News Network.
You see them all up on that slide there.
That's our wall of fame. All these amazing people have

(19:36):
already supported our channel. We really love you and and so
grateful for everyone that can do that.
I know times are really toughrightnowpaypal.meslashanynewsnetworkifyougotpaypal@anynews.now.com.
There's a way to put in a creditcard or Amazon pay or basically
any other way you can think of through Stripe.
And then we've got our sub stacks.
We're live over at any mediatoday.com.

(19:58):
Hello to everyone watching over there.
And then I just waved to my screen even though you can't see
me because I'm a tool. And then INN newsletter.com,
that's the network's newsletter where we put out a weekly update
of all the activity that happensfrom everybody at the network
and a couple of podcasts like INN News goes live over at INN
newsletter on Wednesday nights and Angel in the afternoon.

(20:21):
Sometimes actually he goes to his boats.
Boats goes live at INN Newsletter and also Jessie Jet
And those are all podcasts over there as well as INN one-on-one.
When I do a one-on-one that'll that'll go over there and it's
its own podcast that you can download and watch and listen to
over there. All right, so we have gone past

(20:42):
the Venezuela part. Now we're going to get to this
double down news video that I found and that I think is really
powerful. All right, let me turn the
slideshow thing off and we're going to go to this view here
All right, perfect. So we're going to watch a few

(21:05):
minutes of this and then I'll pause and then we will we'll go
back to it and we'll. Get to do it manually because he
hates slideshows. I do.
He hates the. Slideshow.
He never wants to touch them. Harps get your mind out of the
gutter brother. I don't do anything untoward on

(21:26):
screen. I am a very good man and I have
pants on just just for, for anyone who was wondering, Family
show. Family show folks.
All right. Sorry, children.
Let's watch this video that again.
Indie Media Award honoree DoubleDown News Top outlet from 2022
inaugural class Indie mediaawards.substack.com You can

(21:49):
find all the honorees from all three classes there.
We're not going to do one for 2025.
I don't really think that there's enough new people that I
found that I'm really comfortable doing that with this
year. And we're we're maybe we'll
bring dust it off next year or what, whatever it is.
But I do, I do like double down news for the most part.

(22:10):
They've had a couple of slips here and there, but this one is
a really good video. And this breaks down exactly
what went down on October 7th because there's a lot of
questions. So before we get into the video,
there's a tweet that accompaniesthis.
And the tweet says former IsraelDefense Minister Yoav Gallant

(22:31):
admits to using the Hannibal directive to attack and kill
Israeli captives on October 7th.OK, completely ignored by
Western media. 28 Apache helicopters used all ammunition
and had to be reloaded. This is what really happened on
October 7th. So with that premise.

(22:54):
At Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit, we've conducted A
forensic, meticulous examinationof the events of October the
7th. We uncovered very real crimes
committed by Hamas and others. But I think what was perhaps
most significant were the crimeswe discovered that did not
happen. And it's hugely concerning that
these revelations have been virtually entirely ignored by

(23:16):
the Western press. What's extraordinary is the
Israelis were aware of the plans.
Hamas were actually training quite openly for this operation,
and they were actually placing the training videos online so
anyone could view them. On the very night of October,
the seven before dawn spotters along the fence are reporting

(23:36):
back to headquarters and the head of Shimbet and the head of
military intelligence take this seriously enough.
Then in the middle of the night,they're up and talking to each
other, and they conclude it's just another training exercise.
And what is extraordinary is that they don't even raise the
alert level to number 1. You know, the most basic alert
level would have made a huge difference.

(23:57):
They don't do that, which means that when Hamas bursts through
the fence at 6:30 in the morning, they catch many of the
defenders in their beds and you can see many of the soldiers are
killed in their beds. Hamas had anticipated most of
their fighters would be killed trying to get through the fence.
In fact, only a small number were killed trying to get
through the fence. They were as much taken by
surprise as anyone by the performance of Israeli

(24:19):
intelligence and the Israeli military.
Crucially, also, they were takenby surprise by this very large
music festival that was taking place, which they don't seem to
have been aware of having over on the military bases.
The game plan was to grab hostages and take them back.
And they do this on a large scale, but they also clearly
kill very large numbers of of unarmed civilians as well.

(24:40):
The Israelis were then extraordinarily slow to respond.
Now they scramble Apache helicopters, but there's no
ground control. It's pretty clear that in the
chaos, some hostages at least were hit by Apache helicopter
fire. We've identified 27 people who
were clearly taken hostage, taken captive, and were taken

(25:00):
away from their homes but never made it to the fence, died
somewhere between their homes and the fence.
There's a fair chance that a number of them were killed by
Apache helicopters within the kibbutz.
We've. Identified 18 people who were
pretty much certainly killed by the police and the army as they
arrived, 12 of them. A specific incident in Kibbutz
Berry where you have a large number of gunmen, around 40

(25:23):
gunmen holed up in a house with 13 hostages.
A tank is brought in and opens fire on the House.
There are two survivors from this incident, which is why we
know about it. There may be other incidents we
don't know about because everyone was killed, but there
are two survivors from this who spoke to Israeli media.
There's a common sense thing. You just have to look at the
scale of the destruction and it's clear that 1200 men armed

(25:44):
with rocket propelled grenades and machine guns did not do all
of this. The Hannibal Directive, which
was something that was developedin the 1980s by the Israelis and
it was basically to avoid situations where their enemies
would capture one or two or three Israeli soldiers and then
effectively holding them to ransom.
There was one occasion where theIsraelis released over 1000

(26:05):
Palestinian prisoners in return for a single Israeli soldier.
So an order was issued whereby they said it's better that we
kill everyone than allow people to be captured.
Now, this was supposedly rescinded several years ago, but
at midday on October the 7th, the Army revived the Hannibal
Directive, put it into effect. 70 vehicles were hit.

(26:28):
At least in some of the cases, everyone in the vehicle was
killed. The Israeli military does not
deny the report. The peculiarity of the days
after October 7th is that the Israeli media and subsequently
the international media choose to focus not on the very real
and extensive crimes that Hamas and others did commit, but on

(26:48):
crimes they did not commit. And this had two focuses.
And the days immediately after is to do with babies.
The most dramatic 1 is we see anallegation that there were many
of them beheaded. This is very simple to deal with
because we have a comprehensive list of the dead.
We know that two babies killed on October the 7th. 1 is a 10

(27:09):
month old child who is hit by a bullet fired through a safe room
door. The other is a child who dies
after an emergency caesarean, A Bedouin child in fact.
Now any story about babies that does not relate to those two and
there are a lot of stories aboutbabies is not true.
We know it's not true. This has enormous implications

(27:31):
for the other wave of atrocity stories that began very quickly,
which is to do with sexual violence and particularly the
Israeli assertion that it was widespread and systematic.
To be clear, in the film we are not saying that there were no
rapes on October the 7th. We simply don't know.
What we are saying is that theresimply is not the evidence.

(27:52):
There's not the forensic evidence, there's not the visual
evidence, there's not the photographic evidence, and there
is not the witness evidence to support the allegation of.
Whites, no witnesses. Systematic rape.
The Israelis have this strange system where they farm out the
collection of bodies after disasters and terrorist attacks
and so on to an organization called Zakah, who are ultra

(28:13):
orthodox religious volunteers. They collect the bodies, prepare
them for religious burial and soon.
A character that many people would have seen in the days
afterwards is Yossi Landau, who was the southern commander of
Zakah, who was on television a great deal, he said.
Piles of 10 children each were tied to the back, burned to

(28:34):
death. You then see a phone call, which
Netanyahu makes to President Biden, where he repeats this
story. In fact, he embellishes it.
They took dozens of children, bound them up, burned them and
executed them. Terribly important this, because
it was entirely untrue. We know the house he's talking.
I've seen the video Jack. In Kibbutz Berry, which was the

(28:57):
house that was stormed by Israeli police and military and
where it is almost certain that all of the hostages were killed
by the Israeli police and military, there were two
children there, two twins, but no other children.
So we know the story is untrue. Mr. Landau told a number of
other stories. There's one particularly
notorious one about the fetus being cut out of a pregnant.

(29:17):
This fucking guy. OK.
This Yossi Landau guy is the worst.
It's OK. Like he admits he's admitted
multiple times that he lies justto be able to generate and
gender some kind of sympathy forwhatever 'cause he's doing all
right, He And then three weeks later, after the story's already

(29:42):
gotten out and everyone's yelledat him that that wasn't what
happened and show us the other. We made it up again.
It's it's the story about a lie can make it around the world 10
times before the truth has had achance to put its pants on.
That is exactly what these people at Zaka exploit all the
time. Yes, 7 sign every accusation is

(30:06):
an an admission. OK and revolution continues.
They made-up these stories aheadof time.
They knew that they would need them.
That's right, they have. And not only that, but the
fantasies and the crap that theymake up, only the sadistic kind
of people like them would even conceive of stuff like that.
Because every report. We've talked about that before,

(30:28):
right? All the hostages.
Like all the times they worry about what Palestinians are
willing to do to others. You know, it's like the the
Israelis idea of like, it's justlike here where the majority
right, gets upset at the minorities if they become the

(30:50):
majority because like of what the majority did to those
minorities. It's exactly what's happening
here where Israel's done unspeakable things to
Palestinians and they're worriedabout if Palestinians ever, by
grace of God alone, like become in power what they're willing to
do to Israelis. And it's like they show it every

(31:12):
time. Their own fear is what's
projected. You know this is what they think
of doing to people, you know clearly right my.
It's just it's this guy is in this guy, you'll see is
infuriating and again, the this guy is like Shmuley level
infuriating. I would call, you know, like

(31:32):
he's a troll and he goes in and he's personal friends with Bebe
and he's under instructions to craft like the most disgusting
fear mongering story rage inducing.
However much truth you have to include or not, we don't care.
Just get everybody angry and Rayand enraged and he does it.

(31:54):
Yeah, woman. The baby that was connected to
the court stabbed. Just lies she was.
Shot in the back. We simply know this is untrue.
The list of the dead show there's no such victim, Mr.
Landau said. You know I have a picture of
this atrocity. If you want to see the picture,
I have the picture of it. This is the baby.

(32:14):
I'm sorry to be graphic here, but I can't see a baby here you.
Can't see why are you showing methis is the picture in photo
right now? It was.
A picture. Number.
One number two, they're not showing.
It to us, they're showing it to him.
He's show you to that guy like, but we don't.
The the videos of October 7th, it's right, it's so bad that

(32:38):
logically. I'm not quite sure why he
offered to show me a photo that he didn't have.
I'd point out as well that Zakhar was an organization that
was in trouble. There had been a major scandal.
Its founder had been accused of child sexual abuse.
There was a financial scandal. Of course he's in Israel.
It's raised an awful lot of money since October the 7th.
These stories were clearly useful, and they were useful to

(33:01):
the Israeli government. In the film, we see Benjamin
Netanyahu visiting Zakhar volunteers and thanking them for
talking to the world's media andstressing that this is another
front in the war. Why does this matter?
Why does it matter whether this type of atrocity was committed,

(33:22):
but not that type people were killed in this way?
Not that way. It matters because the murder of
babies and widespread rape has aparticular resonance.
It's particularly triggering theIsraeli government and its
supporters when they justify thebrutality of the subsequent
bombardment and invasion of the Gaza Strip again and again and
again. What they always reference is

(33:45):
babies and rape. Young girls who were raped and
then murdered. Women brutally raped and
murdered. Little kids who are beheaded.
Pictures of terrorists beheadingchildren.
These bastards put these babies in the oven and put on their
oven. We found the kid a few hours
later. This is in previous conflicts as

(34:05):
well if you want to. Dehumanize enemy.
If you want to desensitize. Propaganda to.
The suffering that is inflicted on that enemy, then you portray
them as Barbarians, basically assavages, as people who are not
deserving of humane treatment. And that's why it's relevant.
That's why it's important to pick apart a lot of the world's
leading media outlets have done in depth.

(34:26):
Investigations of the South included that kind of shoot.
Systematic, instrumentalized weaponized rape.
The New York Times makes a particular feature of the story
of a young woman. She was killed early in the
morning at 9 miles north of the music festival site as she and
her husband were fleeing. The New York Times, in its big
December investigation into sexual violence, leads with

(34:48):
this. And about 1/3 of the article
consists of her story. And it's immediately undermined
because the woman's sister then post on Instagram immediately
afterwards. This isn't true.
We know she wasn't raped. She was texting us until minutes
before her death. It's also the case that her
husband had a lengthy phone conversation immediately after
her death with his brother and again made no mention of rape.

(35:10):
So it's very important that because it's the central, most
compelling piece of information and one of the biggest
investigations done by one of the world's most prestigious
media outlets, The New York Times.
And it turns out not to be true.It's done by three journalists.
One of them turns out to be somebody who works in some
capacity for Israeli intelligence previously, who has

(35:31):
virtually no journalistic experience and who had liked
genocidal and media posts. It's very interesting with Anna.
Schwartz, She did an. Interview in Hebrew to an
Israeli channel. She actually lays out how
difficult they were finding it to find evidence that they they
were talking to all the hospitals and all the
psychiatric clinics and so on, and that there was simply no

(35:52):
evidence at all. There were no witnesses had come
forward. No, no victims had come forward
at all. I think she's telling this as if
to to show what digging they hadto do, but it's actually very
revealing. In the end.
It's quite clear they fall back on the same sources as everyone
else. Israeli government officials,
IDF officers and 1st responders.All sources which were

(36:12):
discredited by the stories. So no babies were beheaded, no
babies were thrown into ovens, and there is no real evidence
for widespread and systematic rape.
Now it's very clear why the Israelis might want these
stories to circulate. What's less clear is why very
reputable Western news and mediaoutlets should swallow them so

(36:37):
uncritically, particularly giventhe track record of the Israeli.
Government I can't imagine. Which has been shown again and
again and. Again, right.
To have been less. Than right, this is what that
whole thing was fucking discredited completely.
And this was the dancing, the dancing girl.
This mission is urgent. We will continue.
Fucking wild. And with a commitment to the

(36:58):
sanctity of life, both Israeli and Palestinian.
The response to our film Octoberthe 7th has been interesting.
The response is not to criticizeand to pick apart and say we've
got it wrong. They don't do that at all.
What they do is they simply ignore you, which on one level I
take as a compliment because I think there are all sorts of
people out there. Who are so ignoring you to?

(37:19):
Pick apart what we're doing and to destroy it and discredit it.
And I think they take one look at it and decide they can't
really do it. So what they do do, which in a
way is even more damaging, is just to entirely ignore us.
This is significant because so often what we are doing is
critiquing the way the mainstream media has covered the
story, which may well be of was precisely why the media doesn't

(37:41):
want to look at what we've done.So in a way, the treatment of
this in many ways echoes the treatment of our earlier series,
The Labor Files, which offered acritique of the dominant media
narrative about Corbyn and the Corbyn years on the
anti-Semitism crisis. The allegation of anti-Semitism
clearly is a very powerful weapon that can be wielded in

(38:01):
defense of the Israeli state. I think sometimes, particularly
by the Israeli state, it is wielded very cynically and very
deliberately. When the ICC investigates Israel
for fake war crimes, this is pure anti-Semitism.
What about real war crimes? In Western media and Western
societies that you cannot criticize Israel, you can.

(38:22):
I'm about. To show Israel they never commit
real war crimes. I'm.
About to show, so that's one right there.
Cannot. Do.
Is to question the fundamental philosophy of Zionism.
What you are not allowed to do is to say what all Palestinians
would say. Israel is a state whose defining
feature isn't, has always been, that it is structured to ensure

(38:44):
the domination of 1 ethnicity over another, that it is, in
effect an apartheid state, whichis what all of the world's human
rights organizations now describe it as.
The enormous peculiarity and dysfunction of Western media
with Israel is not only did you say that, you're actually not
allowed to to say that. And this renders criticism of
Israel perilous terrain. People are very on edge.

(39:07):
They're very aware that they're straying into dangerous
territory. They're very aware they have to
choose their words terribly carefully, otherwise they will
be misconstrued. You can see this happening at
its. Worst, or they'll be shot in the
throat. Where particularly Jewish people
are far far more likely to be suspended and expelled for
anti-Semitism from the Labour Party than non Jewish people.

(39:28):
But there is something more fundamental that goes on which
regards the Palestinian people as a whole.
Once you have tainted them with the stain of anti-Semitism you
have opened the door to, you have facilitated the
dehumanization of Palestinians, which is the psychological
prerequisite of Israeli brutality towards the

(39:48):
Palestinians and of Western complicity in that brutality.
Palestinians will often make thepoint that they did not choose
who their occupier was, who their colonizer was.
So. In fighting back, yes, they are
inevitably fighting back againstZionists and Jews.
It doesn't mean they're anti-Semitic.
One has to ask one of the question, are we really saying

(40:09):
that if they had been colonized by Greeks or Italians they
wouldn't be resisting their occupation?
Of course they would. 36 Israelichildren were killed on October
the 7th and this understandably got widespread international
media coverage. At this stage I think over
14,000 Palestinian children havebeen killed and you would expect

(40:33):
the outrage and the coverage to be proportionately greater, and
it's not. People.
Will look back at what is being done, which is essentially the
flattening of a whole series of towns and the mass murder of
thousands and thousands of unarmed civilians, almost half
of whom are children, and they will be absolutely bewildered by

(40:53):
how the West allowed this to happen under its very noses with
weapons. Empowered.
Request there is a. Rupture.
In the relationship of large numbers of people with the
political media class, there is a fundamental alienation that is
going on right now as a result of what is happening in the Gaza

(41:15):
Strip. I think that's very dangerous
for the future. The events of October the 7th
are a case study. Not just the guy that's.
True traditional media can let us down.
But the West Bank? Desperately need alternative
voices that would genuinely probe Lebanon things and not
simply. Exterior.
Narratives that are fed to them.For this reason, I think it's

(41:35):
enormously important to have outlets like Double Down News,
and I would urge you to support Double Down News in any way you
can. Support double down news for
sure. There's a great video supported
dependent media like that. It's really important to have
outlets like that and organizations that are willing
to step out and take a. Risk.

(41:57):
Make a video like that, sorry. So how much of that video is new
to you? I think most of the people that
we're watching live, it's not very new, but I think to a lot
of people that weren't watching live, that are not as plugged

(42:20):
in, they may not have necessarily heard all this
stuff. And that's one of the reasons
why we watch this is is because I want everyone to really be on
a playing field that this is where the evidence shows there
were no beheaded babies, OK, There were.

(42:41):
There was a Hannibal directive. There were Israeli soldiers that
fired upon Israeli citizens and intentionally murdered them.
And then Israel lied about it and then blamed Hamas.
The entire time that the soldiers were pulled off the
wall. That they've testified to the

(43:02):
fact that they were pulled off surveillance for those 4 hours
in the morning that the attack happened.
And that was the only time that the soldiers could ever remember
that happening in all the time they had served.
So there's a lot that I want to make sure is covered and that
people have at least a foundation of.
So when they do hear the nonsense that comes out of

(43:23):
corporate media, they're equipped with the facts and and
the the information to be able to counter that and say, no,
that's not what happened. That's what corporate media and
the Israeli lobby is trying to get you to believe in order to
continue their genocidal war, land theft and resource theft

(43:45):
from the Palestinian people. No, Well, Topher, you know what
brother? That that is very antiseptic.
Maybe it's it's calling out Israel for the shit it does that
you can call it whatever you like.
You can call it peanut butter and Jelly sandwich for all I

(44:05):
give a shit. It is what it is.
So for that, again, we are not going to be remonetized by
YouTube. So if you're able to, it means
please support independent mediasupport this channel.
The way to do that Cash app dollar sign in the news network
over at co-fee.com/anynews network.

(44:26):
That'll pop something up here onscreen.
You got PayPal dot me slash any news network, any news.now.com
is our website. And then over at the sub stacks,
we're live at any new any mediatoday.com.
We're live over there now. Hi everybody over there, 7 sign.
I see you over there. Good to see you.
I'm glad to be able to finally put your chat up on screen.
Reef doesn't care, but other people do, right?

(44:49):
And then and I in a newsletter. We're going to be later.
We're going to be live later over there tonight.
Tonight is an uncensored boat smashing in other boats.
We do a react show after this one in order to eye bleach and
kind of forget about all the crap and bad news.
And we kind of reset and Reef pull some funny stuff and we'll

(45:11):
spend an hour, hour and a half, two hours watching dumb funny
videos and get goofy and, and atthe end of the month, every
every last Sunday night of the month, we go uncensored, meaning
no YouTube, so we can show some of the things that we would
ordinarily not show on YouTube and.
We'll show we can just be watching Blue's Clues because

(45:32):
it's copyright. Who knows?
You know? Well, we're we, we don't.
We don't we don't advertise that, but we just say it's
things that YouTube may not wantus to to be showing, but other
platforms don't seem to mind as much.
So we're going to we're going todo that afterwards.
But in the meantime, I have a really long fuck Israel segment

(45:54):
this week. So everybody buckle up because
this is going to take a little while.
Oh, and let me switch back to the slideshow.
Those slideshow off actually, noslideshow on.
There we go. OK, Consortium News, another
indie media award, Artery, one of the top outlets.
They did a refresh on their WordPress website earlier this

(46:15):
year. Go support them.
I believe they're doing a fun drive.
They are A5O1C3, so all your donations there are tax
deductible if you do choose to do so.
Patrick Lawrence is one of theirexclusive writers that that they
feature. He's also over on sub stack at
the Flautist, but he's Subs, he's been censored on Twitter

(46:38):
for years since the Jack Dorsey days, right?
And he wrote this article that Ithought was interesting.
And from the perspective of being Jewish myself, I, I don't
really get, I try not to aggrandize the position of
here's how it's affecting Jews worldwide because who gives a

(47:03):
shit #1 #2 it's being done and, and facilitated in the name of
Judaism. So, well, yes, it's bad.
It's up to Jews to call that out.
And I do regularly. But So what he's saying is,
here's a letter, this very welcome letter marks out the

(47:24):
significantly worsening alienation between world jewelry
and the Zionist defacement of the Judaic tradition.
And we've been saying very often, Zionism is not Judaism.
Judaism is not Zionism. That's the first thing that we
say all the time is that the Zionists have twisted the Jewish

(47:45):
religion, which had existed for thousands of years before
Zionism, to turn it into and andmorph it into this ultra
nationalistic, disgusting, racist, apartheid, whatever you
want to call ideology, politicalideology that they then utilize

(48:09):
and twist as a religion. So Patrick Lawrence writes this
special to Consortium news. At last, at last, Jews with
powerful voices have gathered inmass, a critical mass I would
say, to condemn Israel and the savage spree of murder,

(48:30):
starvation and terror it inflicts as we speak upon the
Palestinians of Gaza and the occupied territories of the West
Bank. Honestly, I would say not loudly
enough. You may not by now be aware of
the open letter signed by the 450 plus American, European and

(48:51):
Israeli Jews and made public this week.
In it, this sprawling group of distinguished personages
denounces the criminality of theZionist regime and asserts the
universality of justice and the fair and equal application of
international law. The signatories also call for

(49:12):
the international community to impose immediate sanctions on
apartheid Israel. When you've got Jews that are
out there calling for sanctions on Israel, that's that means
something. That's a statement, and that's
what he's saying. This is very big in my read.
And I say this not because of what's in this document.
Calls for justice of this kind are by now many, but straight to

(49:33):
my point. Whose names are in it?
He said, you may know of this letter and I may and you may
not. I ought to add that The Guardian
reported it in its October 22nd edition.
OK. The Turkish wire service A A
also had the story right away. Arab News had it, so did Middle
East Monitor and the New Indian Express and stateside.

(49:55):
Common Dreams even picked it up.Indie Media Award honoree had
Britain Jewish Voice for Liberation picked it up, but the
British daily is it writing alone OK among Western major
media, major Western media to report on this momentous call
for worldwide action against theZionist state.

(50:16):
We read nothing of it in major Western media, no surprise, and
hear nothing from mainstream broadcasters.
Of course not, There are no orders.
I'll return to this important point shortly.
During the worldwide Jewish call, the letter is is titled.
It was organized and put out by an apparently ad hoc coalition
called Jews Demand Action. Now remember that subversive

(50:40):
groups are also funded sometimes, and they also fund
both sides of an opposition. And kind of, I want to, I want
to hear more about this. The document and various
appendages explaining it are here.
Right as the Jews Demand Action website makes clear, the intent
is to announce a continually engaged movement in the cause of

(51:04):
justice. Fair justice for Palestinians.
Justice for the Zionist fanatics.
Guilty of perpetrating A genocide, which is a term that
the group uses with obvious conviction and also with obvious
anger. I can understand why, among much
else, the letter features a formby way of which Jews can sign

(51:27):
the petition and receive updateson actions to come.
I would not advise signing that petition because God only knows
where your information is going to go at that point and what
kind of list you're going to geton at that point.
Quote at last, a serious global Jewish call for sanctions on
Israel. JVL came out and proclaimed yes,

(51:49):
at last. Lots of other Jews have stood
publicly against the apartheid state, many for a long time.
There's Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro, right, the wonderfully outspoken
rabbi and author of The Empty Wagon, which is Zionism's
journey from identity crisis to identity theft.

(52:10):
There's the aforementioned Jewish Voice for Peace and the
Jewish organizations and students that are active on
university campuses and the streets of major cities.
Unqualified praise to them and the many like them I cannot list
in full. And we were behind them 100%
when they were protesting and sleeping on college campuses

(52:31):
trying to convince people that this was something serious, that
their futures were impacted and they wanted to see this ended
and they didn't want their universities funding this and
investing their endowments in this.
Patrick Lawrence, again, the flautist, continues for
Consortium News. I have no certain idea why it

(52:55):
took these hundreds of influential people with self
evidence, conscience, self-evident consciences so long
to join these others against theentity that insists on calling
itself the Jewish state. That's where I'm with him.
The hazardous surmise The past two years of Israel's
unspeakable barbarism have surely been a torment for the

(53:19):
signatories of this letter, As for countless Jews the world
over, as they've sought to distinguish their faith and
their traditions from the conduct of the ultra nationalist
regime that's supposed to merit their allegiance but has
emphatically lost it. Yes, if I had to choose one

(53:42):
sentence in this letter above all others for its significance
and power, I would rather not, but I will.
It would be this quote. Our solidarity with Palestinians
is not a betrayal of Judaism then, but a fulfillment of it.
Because you're supposed to love your neighbor.

(54:03):
After this truth comes these when our sages taught to destroy
one, lead one life is to destroyan entire world.
They didn't carve exceptions forPalestinians.
We shall not rest until the ceasefire carries forward into
an end of occupation and apartheid, UN quote.

(54:26):
This is the conceptual frame within which the signatories
address Antonio Guterres, the UNSecretary General, as well as,
quote, presidents, prime ministers, heads of state and
permanent representatives to theUnited Nations.
A strongly worded letter while approving of the ceasefire or

(54:47):
what remains of it at this point, These strongly worded
letter states, quote. And yet there should be no doubt
that this ceasefire is fragile. Israeli forces remain in Gaza.
The agreement makes no referenceto the West Bank.
The underlying conditions of occupation, apartheid and the
denial of Palestinian rights remain unaddressed.

(55:10):
And Oh yeah, right of return also remains unaddressed.
The letter continues and says, quote, as Jews and human beings,
we declare not in our name. Then it lists the four key
demands that the signatories advance in their names.
And at least this one has a demand.

(55:30):
Respect for the authority of theInternational Court of Justice,
yes, But respect by authority? Really.
A rejection of the complicity that Western governments have
forced upon their citizens. OK, a full military withdrawal,
Absolutely. And the supply of aid and

(55:51):
everything else needed to reconstruct Gaza.
And then finally, of course, to refute false accusations of
anti-Semitism that abusively deploy our collective history to
tarnish those with whom we standtogether in the pursuit of peace
and justice. Yes, again times 10.
Yes, not using the definition ofanti-Semitism being anyone that

(56:14):
opposes Israel's apartheid and murdering of Palestinian babies.
Yes, absolutely. You find some big names among
the signatories and the letter doesn't give the full list.
Daniel Levy, who was previously a peace negotiator for Israel

(56:35):
and now a prominent critic. You've got Gabor Mate and
Wallace Shawn, Peter Beanart, Naomi Klein and Amy Eilberg, an
American rabbi and activist, right?
Yuval Abraham who Co directed noother land right and that that's

(56:55):
the Oscar winning film and I believe that his Palestinian
director was murdered by Israel.Basil Andhra, if I do not put
the point too simply. These people speak not for the
destruction of Israel, but for the restoration to for its
restoration to sanity. And so it's salvation.

(57:19):
They don't mention the two statesolution in their letter, but
one gains the impression is thisfor which they hope.
One may differ strenuously with them on these points, as I do
emphatically, as do I. But what I will shorthand as
their moderation is part of whatmakes their open letter so
important. These again are shorthand

(57:39):
mainstream chews. I would I would dispute that Gab
or mate I would cannot consider to be a mainstream chew.
I wish that were the truth. But he he's still considered to
be French. I would say in his opposition of
of Israel, in even being the sonof a Holocaust survivor, he

(58:00):
still is not really mainstream. Most Jews don't even know who he
is, at least none that I know. But who can say how carefully or
how many presidents, prime ministers, UN reps will even
consider this letter? I would guess not many.
This isn't the salient point. I wonder if Jeffrey Sachs signed
off on this letter, my yes wouldbe yes.

(58:23):
This letter marks out the significantly worsening
alienation between world jewelryand the state that's supposed to
represent its home. And in so doing, it widens and
deepens the already evident isolation of the Jewish state,
even though, again, it's not a Jewish state.
This latter effect may not be the intent of the open letter

(58:45):
signatories, but it will prove unmistakably to be among the
documents consequences. OK, right.
It talks about this letter says we represent the growing
consensus of world Jews, not theIsraeli government, the letter
declares, and it's one of its subheads.
Exactly so. And as the Guardian Peace cited

(59:09):
above points out that the open letter should be read alongside
some stunning numbers coming outof the most recent opinion
polls. In a recent Washington Post
survey, 61% of American Jews asked think that Israel has
committed war crimes in Gaza. Again, I think the other 40% are

(59:30):
fucking blind and lying to themselves or buried their head
in the sands. Just under 40% stand with the
open letter signatories we witness a genocide.
The other 60% are lying to themselves because if it were
happening to anyone else, they would absolutely declare it to
be a genocide. But because Israel's doing it it

(59:52):
it's a double standard and that's what pisses me off.
On top of, of course, Israel murdering every everyone there.
And a poll that doesn't distinguish between Jews and non
Jews, the Brookings Institution,which I can't stand mainstream
Democratic Party bullshit, findsthat 45% of those surveyed think

(01:00:13):
that Israel's committing genocide.
And remember, these are people that are trying to shoehorn
their way into the opposite in results.
They don't want even these results coming out.
These are really bad for their donors and their constituents.
I don't even know why they put them out honestly.

(01:00:33):
A recent poll conducted by Quinnipiac indicates 50% of
registered voters agree. Among Democratic voters, the
number 77%. But yet the checks continue to
flow with the Just like 87% of Democrats want Medicare for all
and that shit ain't happening. 77% of American of American

(01:00:55):
Democrats think that Israel is committing genocide.
And yet the money continues to flow.
On Thursday, Reuters published asurvey indicating that 59% of
the Jews and non Jews polled think the US should recognize
Palestine as a sovereign state. Again, what does that mean
exactly? What land do they actually get?

(01:01:17):
Do they get to control the military?
Do they get to elect themselves a government that actually can
negotiate anything? Or are they just a puppet to be
dictated to by DC? I think that that's really what
they wanted, recognizing it. And we talked about what
recognizing it really means, which is bullshit.
Giving them their own real stateand allowing them to exist as a

(01:01:40):
state is what we do. And the truth is, in the state
should be all of it, and Israel should live side by side.
Anyone that wants to live side by side with the Palestinians is
free stay. If you can't do that the fuck
out because that ain't your home, Patrick continues.
I see a highly significant conference.

(01:02:02):
Go ahead. I never understood, like, I
mean, you've talked about this too, like technically with the
Holocaust, wasn't like, shouldn't we give them back
Germany and like other parts of that region, you know?
Yes, yes. And I, I believe that the excuse

(01:02:23):
among Zionists #1 is that it's too traumatic for the Germans,
for the German Jews, because they were genocided there.
That to take that over and and build a homeland on their bones
is kind of fucked up, but to do it on the Palestinians bones,

(01:02:43):
it's no better. I mean, they're bones, like,
right? Like that's what I don't get #1
if you were right, if you got torun the country that fucked you
over like that, you do like. Grave grades and museums and
tributes and all the I totally yes, and not only.
That. Why wouldn't the United States?
And that at that point, if you're so insistent on the Jews

(01:03:04):
having a homeland, give them North Dakota.
Nobody gives a fuck about North Dakota anyway, right?
Montana. I mean, knowing what they're
willing to do now, no. But they wanted.
If they did get, you know, control over Germany, no, we
know. But like they probably would
have started putting the book ofGermans in the cans like.

(01:03:26):
Right. And then there's the.
Whole, you know. Israeli.
There's whole Jews committing terrorism in Islamic countries
throughout the 1930s in order tojustify and create this
narrative that, hey, there's only one safe, but we have to
build a safe place because there's nowhere else safe for
Jews in the world, right? So again Patrick continues that

(01:03:50):
he sees a highly significant conflict growing ever sharper
between the increasing number ofoutspoken Jews of conscience and
those many and they remain very many who continue to defend the
righteousness of the Israeli terror machine.
These are getting especially awkward for mainstream media

(01:04:11):
such as the Zionist supervised New York Times and we did a long
story about how engaged how Zionist they are wherein we find
no mention of Jews demand actionand its forthright open letter.
The paper of record decided not even to mention it.
Like who was a double down News said that one of the things they

(01:04:33):
do is they just choose to ignoreit and that's a tactic.
This cannot end well for the times and all the pilot fish
that follow. However long the time stays
silent, however many media billionaire Zionists take over
and corrupt however many Barry Weiss's they put in high places
and we've covered that too. This will do nothing other than

(01:04:55):
discredit these media. In time, it may work.
For now, they're effectively complicit in the Zionist
defacement of the Judaic tradition.
Not that they give a fuck. This is in another way the oh,
this is another way that the open letter is important.
And again, you taught you guys covered the the history of

(01:05:16):
Zionism. Theodore Herzl was an atheist.
He wasn't even a Jew. The world has long and urgently
needed to hear from the we whosenames are on this letter.
Non Jews need to learn of and make the distinction between
Judaism and the frenzied Zionismthat now rules Israel so they
can think clearly of these questions.

(01:05:39):
And as they are well aware, those Jews who reject Israel's
ultra nationalist Zionism must make themselves heard for the
sake of Judaism too. My again question is where the
fuck they've been for two years?Because we've been talking about
this for two years, we don't accept that any great wave of
anti-Semitism is breaking upon us.

(01:05:59):
I agree with that. There is no ferocious surge in
Joe Biden's preposterous phrase.But the potential for such a
turn, given the extent of Israel's inhumanity in
combination with its claim to bethe Jewish Home is obvious.
The Zionist hordes love the threat of anti-Semitism, how

(01:06:21):
well it serves their permanent, perdicious purpose.
Bully is their absolute dream. At last, this insidious ruse is
countered by those whose voices count most, the voices of Jews.
And again, I disagree with this.The voices of Jews don't count
most that. Fuck that shit like it.

(01:06:45):
It's just the people that they're claiming to do this in
the name of are finally speakingout and saying no.
But again, where the fuck have you been for two years?
It's about time is more like theway I would word this and phrase
this, other than being so. Oh my God, thank you so much.
This is such a monument, this important thing.

(01:07:05):
My question is, where the fuck you been?
And it's about fucking time. Welcome to the party, pal.
All right. Next.
We got Ali Amoro right, 17 seconds.
She was on one of these flotillas.
By the way, footage of Israel blowing up homes in Rafah today.

(01:07:26):
The demolition and destruction has not stopped despite the
quote UN quote ceasefire. Remember, what it means is that
you cease in Israel continues tofire.
There weren't people in there. They're just destroying the
potential of living in anywhere that may be in those buildings.

(01:07:51):
Disgusting. Ethnic cleansing genocide.
Keep denying it, I don't give a fuck.
Then we got this piece from Bondo Weiss.
Israel returns 195 bodies to Gaza, many mutilated with hands
bound and signs of torture. Again for anyone squeamish where

(01:08:15):
we might have some pictures in this one that you might want to
turn away from. But yes mastermind.
I thought there were only supposed to be 140,000 chosen
people. How do you know if there are
that many left at this point? Like the whole story, I'm so
disgusted by all of it. I just abolish religion

(01:08:35):
entirely, I, I say. And that makes the Christians
very upset. And I'm sorry to to say, but
more people have been murdered the name of religion than
anything else in the history of mankind.
And it's pointless, useless, andit's gotten us nowhere.
So the gods of Ministry of Health published the photos of
the mutilated bodies of the Palestinian prisoners.

(01:08:57):
Most of them showed clear signs of torture.
Hands and feet bound, blindfolded body showing marks
of tank tracks, which we showed last week.
All right, burns, fractures and deep wounds.
This is from Tarika Josh. And this was from Thursday.
All right, look at all those bodies.

(01:09:21):
It's just disgraceful. The Gaza government media office
announced on Wednesday morning the burial ceremonies of 54
unidentified Palestinian bodies that the Ministry of Health had
received from Israel through theRed Cross as part of the ongoing
exchange of deceased prisoners during ceasefire between Israel

(01:09:42):
and Hamas, when Israel is continuing to murder
Palestinians daily. Since it was impossible to
identify the disfigured and mutilated bodies, they're all
being buried in a mass grave, the government media offset.
Since October 14th of this year,the God's Health Ministry has

(01:10:02):
received the bodies of over 195 deceased Palestinian prisoners.
Remember that they've been holding over 10,000 Palestinians
in Israeli tortured prisons and dungeons, many without charge.
Again, the majority of the bodies show clear signs of
torture, including bullet holes fired from point blank range,

(01:10:26):
bruises and signs of mutilation.Several bodies were received
with their hands tied behind their backs, several more with
blindfolds over their eyes. Health Ministry also said that
several bodies showed signs of strangulation from hangings with
ropes found tied around the body's necks still, while others
bore marks of tank tracks. Other bodies were found missing

(01:10:50):
with missing organs. According to these health
officials, Mondo Weiss received reviewed and verified
photographs of some of the mutilated bodies from the gods
of Ministry of Health. They are horrific and show clear
signs of torture. The Ministry of Health has
uploaded several photos and the mutilated bodies online and made

(01:11:11):
them available to the families of people who went missing
during the war in hopes that they might identify them.
We strongly advise the readers proceed with extreme caution if
viewing the Ministry of Health photos.
They are extremely disturbing and graphic, and for those
reasons, Mondo Weiss has decidednot to republish them.
But sharing them on a link to a Google Drive folder there, I'm

(01:11:35):
not going to show them. Of the 195 bodies, only 57 have
been identified so far. During the burial ceremony of
the 54 unidentified, the government media offices, this
director said that the bodies that had been received were held
for a period of five days to allow for forensic examinations.

(01:11:59):
Rude. As rudimentary as they could
possibly do, I'm guessing. When none of the families with
missing loved ones were able to positively identify the bodies,
they were handed over to the Department of Endowments for
burial. Forensic teens found martyrs
with their hand. We had we heard the quotes.
They were buried in numbered graves in Deir al Balah in

(01:12:24):
central Gaza earlier this morning between cinder blocks.
Families whose loved ones went missing during the war have
flocked to Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis in the hopes of
identifying them and finding some closure.

(01:12:46):
Health authorities gather familymembers in large rooms and
display pictures of the bodies. Again, we showed that last week.
Richard Medhurst tweeted that out, showing them disfigured and
mutilated. The families have to sit through
the images and try to find identifying features on the
bodies, Which Can you imagine having to do that?

(01:13:06):
In video testimony obtained fromMondo Weiss, Wahaba Shabbat
stands in shock in Nasser Hospital after identifying the
body of her son Mahmoud Shabbat,34, who went missing on October
7th, 2023. More than two years.
Wahba later learned that Mahmoudhad been one of the fighters who

(01:13:27):
had crossed into Israel on that day.
She says they want to honor him with a dignified burial.
He chose this path and was free to do so.
All we want to do is give him a final resting place, nothing
more. Now I can say I am at peace
after knowing what happened to my son.
And remember that when a when a people are occupied, resistance

(01:13:50):
is justified. So they can call him whatever
they want to call him. He was a resistance fighter in
the in the international community's eyes.
Well, Hava said that the body arrived naked, disfigured,
showing signs of torture all over his body.
His head was crushed, his face was shattered, and he had broken

(01:14:11):
limbs. Yeah, and that's blurred out,
thankfully. All right.
When I saw pictures of the missing, I suspected that one of
the photos might be of my son. I immediately came to the
hospital after a family member showed me their photo on their
phone. I examined his body and found
the mark on his head that I knewwould be there.

(01:14:35):
He had been injured in the head during the Great March of Return
in between 2018 and 19, a periodin which Israel maimed, wounded
or killed over 30,000 Palestinians protesting at
Gaza's border fence. Unarmed Palestinians walked up
to the fence. And.

(01:14:56):
And were murdered, just mowed down once they got within a
certain distance of the fence line.
He underwent several operations and the scars remained.
I recognized him immediately andcollapsed with the sight of the
condition has brought his body arrived in.
She explains that before identifying him, he had

(01:15:17):
repeatedly described him to the doctors at Nasser Hospital until
his identity was confirmed. Quote I was shocked by the
severity of the torture he suffered.
All this torture on one young man.
They even returned him naked without dignity, explaining that
the signs were apparent because the body had not undergone

(01:15:39):
decomposition as it had been frozen solid.
So they've been holding him since October 7th in a freezer
somewhere. His bones were fractured, his
feet showed clear marks of beingchained, his hands were tied
behind his back, there was a bullet wound to his head, so he

(01:16:02):
was executed, and a rope was around his neck.
It was clearly visible. They executed him without mercy.
Wobble went on to say that not asingle bone had been left intact
on his face. Even in the worst wars, torture
doesn't reach this level, she said.

(01:16:22):
The resistance took prisoners from the Israeli army to Gaza
and kept them for two years. Look how they were returned to
their families alive, walking, talking, not mutilated or
tortured to death. So why are only our prisoners
killed in cold blood and returned to their families like
this, broken and tortured, tied up and strangled?

(01:16:43):
Because I'm elect, that's why. Because the BB Netanyahu blame
it on the BB. But not just the BB Lilacud and
Kalan and Ben Veer and all the hard line extremist terrorists.
In the courtyard of the medical complex, Majaya Chadela stands
in front of the main entrance. Lucky she didn't get bombed.

(01:17:05):
Staring at the photos of the bodies displayed by the Ministry
of Health again. Thankfully, we have a ceasefire
quote UN quote happening. She scrutinizes each image as
she searches for her son who went missing since the afternoon
again of October 7th. Whenever she hears new bodies
have been returned, she immediately rushes to the
hospital to see if her son's among them.

(01:17:26):
They just want closure of their mum, these mothers.
Even if they return a small piece of flesh, that'll be
enough for me to honor and bury him.
You just keep seeing this again,disfigured beyond recognition.
You keep seeing the same story over and over and over again.
Fuck Israel. Now we all know Indy Media award

(01:17:52):
honoree Lee Camp. He's been around a while, right?
Lee Camp is incredibly censored and suppressed but for some
reason they allowed this one to get through.
And this one's got over 24,000 likes.
So most I've seen him getting a long time, honestly.
And it's not his map. This came from Al Jazeera.

(01:18:14):
But he says kind of amazing thatIsrael has ethnically cleansed
over half of Gaza. And no one in our media mentions
that Israel has ethically cleansed over half of Gaza.
All right, that this yellow linehas now been established and
this is the new Gaza. Is this clear section beige

(01:18:37):
inside the yellow line that Israel has taken all of this
territory at least a mile or more in from every line, in this
case here, 0.9 miles right there, all right near there at
the era of Allah, but in other cases 4 miles in in the South,

(01:19:05):
and of course a mile and 1/4 in from Rafa.
That's a war crime. That's a war crime.
Yep, one of the many. Then we have this one, this, I
actually grabbed this from Israel Palestine News, but this

(01:19:25):
was one of their, the things that they referenced invasions,
violations and abductions acrossthe West Bank.
Like I said, this isn't happening just in Gaza, but it's
also happening without with impunity and without really
people paying attention. Across the West Bank, occupation
forces and illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers invaded

(01:19:49):
multiple Palestinian cities, towns, and refugee camps across
the occupied West Bank. Late Thursday evening and into
Friday, Israeli forces abducted 4 Palestinian civilians in
Hebron in the southern West Bankafter invading their homes,
conducting searches, and ransacking their belongings.
So they move in the house, they trash it.

(01:20:12):
Conduct a search and then they arrest.
They they arrest without charge the people who own the home.
Local sources identified that the detainees occupation forces
also stormed several homes belonging to the AL Atrash and
Al Rajabi families and others inHebron.

(01:20:33):
They erected multiple military roadblocks at the entrances to
the city and its surrounding towns.
Villages and refugee camps had blocked several main and side
roads using iron gates, concreteblocks and earth mounds.
So they're cutting them off street by St.
Israeli soldiers also invaded AlFarah refugee camp, South of

(01:20:54):
Tubas in northeastern West Bank.This is all illegal.
They're not supposed to be doingany of this, and nobody's
reporting it, media sources reported.
Except for Israeli media, because they don't give a shit
that. Military patrols entered the
camp from its northern area, with infantry units spreading

(01:21:14):
through its alleys. Several homes were stormed and
ransacked, again, trashed, before the with forces withdrew
toward the Hamra military roadblock.
So we'll just go in and trash your place and split.
In addition, the army invaded alQaeda town South of Bethlehem,
focusing on the AL Balu area, where they stormed and searched

(01:21:38):
a residential apartment. No abductions there were
reported. And you have footage, right, of
vehicles arriving, and obviouslythose are IDF.
A mosque does not have vehicles like that, right?

(01:22:02):
In Tokarem, in the northwestern West Bank, Israeli forces did
abduct former political prisonerMalek Saada Jalad, 50, from the
erta suburb South of the city after breaking in it into his
home and vandalizing its contents.
Par for the course. Meanwhile, back in the hall of

(01:22:22):
Injustice, illegal Israeli paramilitary colonizers set fire
to several civilian vehicles in Deir de Blan.
That's east of Ramallah in the central West Bank, right?
So let's get footage of that. Local sources reported that

(01:22:44):
colonizers attacked at the AL Tall neighborhood and torched
vehicles parked outside Palestinian homes.
Where are you getting this stuff?
Nobody else is reporting on thisin Nablus, in the northern West
Bank. Maybe Electronic Intifada, maybe
the guys that don't bet beat, maybe Fee and and Fiorella and

(01:23:06):
Vanessa Bailey and Eva Bartlett.Nobody else is reporting this
kind of stuff. Several armored Israeli military
vehicles invaded the city in Nablus and Belata refugee camp,
firing live rounds, gas bombs and concussion grenades.
Again, against a defenseless people for the most part.

(01:23:28):
And you've got footage there through like a narrow alleyway
because they don't want to get caught.
On Friday morning, colonizers assaulted Palestinian olive
harvesters in Beit Dajan, east of Nablus.
The attack occurred in the Colette Alcateol area north of
town, where colonizers preventedfarmers from continuing their

(01:23:51):
harvest and saw a horrible photoof a colonizer literally beating
down a Palestinian woman for harvesting her olives.
Olive pickers across the West Bank face repeated assaults by
colonizers and occupation soldiers who block access to
farmland and obstruct harvesting.

(01:24:12):
Last month alone, Israeli colonizers carried out 490
documented violations targeting Palestinian villages and Bedouin
communities. And nobody's going to do shit
about it. These attacks are concentrated
in Hebron government 127, Ramallah government 122, and

(01:24:33):
Nablus another 115. Again, who's stopping this?
Palestinian Authority is supposedly working with people,
right? Then we have this video.
This is a woman named Layla Ghazi.
She was on one of the flotillas.She's got 2 minutes talking
about what it was like to be in an Israeli camp in in the

(01:24:58):
prison. Let me turn this up and go.
I'm here to record a message in my jammies because that's how I
plan to live for a little while.And before I can organize my
thoughts on what it was actuallylike being in Israeli detention
and of course talk more about that because we need to get

(01:25:20):
every single Palestinian hostageout of these horrific
conditions. I want everyone to know about a
banner that was hung up in the women's prison in the yard.
It's likely an AI generated image.
It shows the ruins of Gaza, rubble on one side, rubble on

(01:25:41):
the other side, and then throughthe rubble, there's like this
path where I'm presuming that Israeli soldiers are the ones
walking through it. It's kind of hard to tell
because it's like an aerial view.
It's like this weird hopeful sky, like a new dawn kind of
sky, if you can imagine this. And in Arabic, on the banner, it

(01:26:03):
says the new Gaza. And then, of course, underneath
this banner, there's like a giant Israeli flag in the yard.
They want Palestinian hostages to see this when they're
detained. And obviously it's an Arabic for
a reason. Psychological torture.

(01:26:24):
Been saying the quiet part out loud for so long.
So if this doesn't show you thatit's never been about Hamas,
it's never been about hostages, Israeli hostages, it's never
been about any of the things that they say it's about, and
that it's only an attempt to ethnically cleanse Palestine.

(01:26:46):
Here's your evidence. Obviously I was in prison, so I
can't show you a picture of thisbanner, but it was there.
And yeah, I want to hear more ofthe prisoners, hostages who were
in detention with me talking about this because this shit is

(01:27:10):
insane. These people are insane.
It's a depraved society and the world needs to know, so I'm
here. So I.
Wanted somewhere a saying about they cry in Hebrew, lie in

(01:27:37):
English, threaten in Arabic, right like.
Powerful. And that's the only time they
ever use Arabic is. I would.
I would say that they cry. In English.
Threaten in, in, you know, and then as well, yeah, you know,
they're bombastic in Hebrew and threatened in Arabic for sure.

(01:28:02):
But sure. Speaking of being in captivity,
this guy, and this is a really long article.
I'm not going to read through the whole thing.
Margaret Flowers, who is the editor over at Popular
Resistance, another Indie Media Award honoree, 2022, one of the
best outlets out there. Still, she shared this to her

(01:28:23):
Facebook. I had seen it it came through I
believe also on the any news nowwebsite.
Welcome to hell remembrances of the of time in an Israeli prison
and there are actually two partsto this article.
This is just one part and you can see how long it is all
right. This is from the Gaza freedom
flotilla shipmates on the conscience.

(01:28:44):
This was I believe, from the most recent flotilla right.
All roads lead to Ketsio. That believe that's that's the
prison, right? And he talks about some of the
conditions, right? That they loaded the bus with
us. Don't take your blindfold off.
They have a camera. They're recording everything

(01:29:05):
we're saying. I recognize the voice of the
activist sitting next to me. He's a big guy, well over 6 feet
tall. I was squashed into the corner
of the last row of the bus. I tried to sit sideways to get
more room. The steel seats of the bus made
that difficult. It was uncomfortable.
At least they didn't zip tie my hands too tightly.
It must have been well after midnight when the bus started

(01:29:27):
moving. We were all tired.
I dozed fitfully, the wind of the bus transmission in my ears.
At one point I woke up in a panic.
I had removed my blindfold whilehalf asleep.
The camera. I desperately tried to refit the
blindfold over my eyes with clumsily zip tied hands.
It worked. Thankfully, no guards appeared.

(01:29:47):
I guess no one was monitoring the camera very closely.
Perhaps the guards were asleep as well.
And of course, now we're dropping.
We just dropped the frame. How to sleep in such conditions,
right? It's simply a question of
exhaustion. My head pitched forward, chin to

(01:30:09):
my chest. I was going to get some rest.
Just at that point, the bus had a huge pothole in my face,
slammed down on the back of the seat in front of me.
Ow. I bit my lip quite badly.
I tasted blood. The inside of my lip was
shredded. I was thankful I didn't break
any teeth. There would be no more sleep on
this ride. And this begins again.

(01:30:31):
His time in an Israeli torture prison.
All right. I ate my Jelly sandwich under
the cover of darkness in our cell, right?
Nothing from the Israelis. Certainly a valid point, right?
We were firmly led to our cell. Finally led to our cell.
It's tank of urine consisted of four bunk beds in a room and a

(01:30:52):
separate bathroom with a filthy toilet.
It was a sink with a working faucet, which was our source of
water for washing and drinking. It was a camera on the back
wall, mounted up high close to the ceiling.
We're being observed. We received towels, a small
toothbrush, toothpaste, and three small packets of liquid
soap, which proved impossible for me to open.

(01:31:16):
Of course the bugs were noisy because they were supported by a
seal sheet that flexed when one rolled over in bed.
Boom. It sounded like a poorly
constructed gong or something. I quickly learned to lie still.
So I'm not going to again read this whole article.
This is a long story and for theif you want to get triggered and

(01:31:37):
read just how bad it is, how badit was for the people that were
in these prisons, don't go read this over popular resistance.
Fuck Israel for that and also for this from Dave Decamp and
anti war news. Not a surprise though they'll
deny it. Israel has only allowed a

(01:31:59):
fraction of the agreed upon aid to enter Gaza according to the
World Food Program. Again, that's Jose Andres,
that's the IA friendly brother, right?
And this was from Tuesday. Israel has allowed just a
fraction of the agreed upon number of aid trucks to enter

(01:32:20):
Gaza under the ceasefire deal, according to officials in the
Strip. They have no reason to lie.
Under the ceasefire agreement, Israel pledged to immediately
allow the commencement of full entry of humanitarian aid and
relief, minimum of consistent with the January ceasefire deal

(01:32:41):
under which they agree then to allow 600 a day.
According to Gaza's government media office, Israel has allowed
just 15% of the trucks to enter.And remember, they're still all
lined up at the Rafa Gate. They're sitting on the Egyptian
border waiting to come in. We confirm that the total number

(01:33:02):
of humanitarian aid trucks that have entered the Gaza Strip
since the ceasefire has reached 986 out of the 6600 that we're
supposed to enter until Monday evening, according to what's
agreed upon now. Remember, though, that this
resolution was not agreed upon by Israel or Hamas.

(01:33:25):
They didn't sign it. Data from UN2720 Monitoring and
Tracking Dashboard, which is a mechanism created last year to
monitor aid shipments into Gaza,shows that from October 10th
until the 21st, only 853 aid trucks have reached their
intended destination in Gaza. Isn't that nice?

(01:33:50):
The media office added that on average, 89 trucks were entering
Gaza per day. That's 1/6 has continued policy
of strangulation, starvation andhumanitarian blackmail practiced
by the occupation. The more things change, the more
they stay the same. The UN World Food Program has

(01:34:11):
also said that food supplies to Gaza have ramped up since the
ceasefire, but are still well below the target.
They said its target was for 2000 tons of food to enter Gaza
per day, but only 750 are entering.
We've been able to get this to scale up.
All right. In order to do that, we have to
use every border crossing point right now.

(01:34:34):
But of course, just two of the Israeli controlled border
crossings were operational, one in central Gaza and one in the
South. Oh, OK.
But they still have yet to open Rafa.
So all those trucks that are sitting in Rafa could come in if
Israel just opened that up. And if they did, I believe they

(01:34:55):
might still have to bulldoze a road now because they've bombed
the entire Rd. ETAFA added that the food
supplies that have entered Gaza are enough to feed half a
million people or 1/4 of Gaza's population, or about I would say
1/3 for two weeks. And then many people are

(01:35:15):
rationing because they fear thatsupplies are going to be cut off
again. They eat part of it.
They ration and keep some of theplot the supplies for an
emergency because they're not very confident how long the
ceasefire will last and what will happen next.
And who can blame them. Man, fuck Israel for all of

(01:35:40):
this. It's it's just depraved.
It's disgraceful, it's disgusting.
I, I don't even have the words to describe all of it.
And let's not forget the complicity of the US and the UK.
Namely, and this is in any mediaaward honoree declassified.
UK continuing their coverage of the spy plane missions which

(01:36:04):
remain active in Cyprus after the Gaza mission ends.
Right. So aircraft contracted to look
for hostages continues to fly from the UK base despite the
ceasefire, with drones also spotted.
Why are these drones and why arethese planes circling Cyprus?

(01:36:30):
That's weird. A spy plane hired by Britain's
Ministry of Defense to surveil Gaza has continued flights over
the main Mediterranean after itsmission ended last week.
But what's interesting again is that the man spy plane is known
as Crook 12 is owned by the Sierra Nevada Corporation, which

(01:36:50):
I still contend likely has some connections to Israel, Adelson,
Mossad, etcetera, etcetera. Allegedly, I have not found any
direct evidence and linked, but I haven't dug any very deeply.
My guess is they're not even trying to hide it and spent

(01:37:10):
several hours flying in circles off the coast of Cyprus this
Monday and last Friday. Royal Air Force drones have also
been operating in the same area since the ceasefire.
What are they doing out here? Oh, and how interesting that
they go into a 55.* pattern. Also, Brooks, 12, was part of a

(01:37:35):
fleet of planes used by Britain's Royal Air Force to
surveil Gaza since December of 2023, and Declassified has
reported on this before. As we covered on this show,
officially looking for hostages.No information has been released
about whether they found anyone with mounting concern that

(01:37:57):
intelligence shared with Israel could have contributed to
attacks on civilians Could have.It's sister playing crook, 11,
once left its tracker on over Gaza, revealing it flew just
three streets away from a house that was bombed by Israel hours
later, killing 34 civilians. Quote.

(01:38:19):
The faces of dead children were crushed in a way that no mind or
heart can describe. If there's evidence that a
British Recon plane participatedin the massacre committed
against us, then Britain is complicit in the genocide.
Of course not. To quote a horse loving

(01:38:42):
douchebag named Jake. This pair of crook planes
appeared on flight tracking websites between Cyprus and Gaza
133 times since they were first deployed in December of 2024.
Declassified as found. That's a lot.

(01:39:03):
The Royal Air Force has deployedits own fleet of shadow R1
surveillance planes over 600 times from Cyprus during the war
in Gaza. Or you mean the massacre
orchestrated by Israel and Gaza?According to research by the
charity Action on Armed Violence, this suggests again

(01:39:23):
that the Ministry of Defence could have launched as many as
739 surveillance sorte sorties relating to Gaza, meaning 739
instances of potential war crimes.
The data can't be comprehensive because the crook planes often
restricted the visibility of their trackers.
And because they're American planes, they can't be held to a

(01:39:47):
standard. Two further flights since the
ceasefire suggest the Ministry of Defense may intend to keep
operating surveillance flights in the eastern Mediterranean.
What a shock. Defense Secretary John Healey
said this week that a small teamof British military personnel
have been sent to Israel to helpwith monitoring the ceasefire.

(01:40:12):
Sturgeon. That's what they're there for.
Without boots on the ground, theteam is likely to rely on a
combination of drones, surveillance aircraft,
satellites and other sensors to keep watch for any breaches, the
Times reported. And Oh yeah, the Trust me bro
from Israel that they always take.

(01:40:33):
It comes as at least two RAF Protector drones were seen on a
flight tracking website flying from Aquatiri, Britain's air
base in Cyprus. As far as it's publicly known,
these flights are the 1st for Ras Protector RG ones outside of
the UK or US airspace. That's significant.

(01:40:56):
Campaign group Genocide Free Cyprus said on Instagram that
the drone flights extend Britishmilitary influence from a
colonial foothold and ensure that the UK remains a key player
on regional surveillance. Which is exactly what it's
trying to do. 3% of Cyprus remains British occupied,

(01:41:18):
despite the island becoming independent in 1960.
Were you aware of that? I did not know that.
No, I had no idea. Referring to the man spy
flights, a defense analyst who asked not to be named.
Old declassified quote. I'm still deeply mystified as to
why the Israelis needed any intelligence of these planes

(01:41:39):
could detect over Gaza. Mostly because they wanted
complicity. They wanted somebody else to do
their dirty work for them. It's not a big secret that the
Israelis have fleets of drones and signals intelligence and
troops on the ground. They have way more capability
than anything that those planes could have.
Yes, but they also have Israeli flag markings.

(01:42:04):
The Ministry of Defense has refused to answer to questions
in Parliament about its contractual relationship with
Sierra Nevada. How convenient.
Let me guess. Citing national security
concerns the the Ministry of Defence, The Ministry of Defence
previously told Declassified that the surveillance flights
were unarmed, don't have a combat role, and we're solely

(01:42:27):
focused on securing the release of the hostages.
Sure, Jen. Sure they weren't.
They said that the UK. They've been doing that for the
last like 2 years, 8 months or whatever it is, right?
Right, there you go. Las Vegas Sands Corp has reached

(01:42:50):
a deal with federal prosecutors to pay more than $47,000,000 to
the US government in order to avoid criminal charges over
alleged money laundering activities.
That would be the Adelson familythat operates in Vegas but
doesn't own any hotels in Vegas anymore.
They operate hotels in Macau. Thank you 7 side for that.

(01:43:12):
Good night. Revolution continues.
Good to see you again. The UK controls claims that they
control what information is passed on and only information
relating to hostage rescue, broad term is passed to the
relevant Israeli authorities. We will only pass information
where we're satisfied that it will be used in accordance with
international humanitarian law or where we have plausible

(01:43:37):
deniability. That's the other thing that they
won't mention. Fuck Israel, fuck England.
And you know, I heard Monica Perez on the latest cognitive
dissonance talked about it and she said it's, it's really a
triangle. It's, it's, it's, it's a
trifecta between the US, the UK and Israel.

(01:43:58):
It's the three of them operatingin tandem and in consortium with
each other. This is another disgraceful
fucking video that I wanted to bring real quick.
Let's turn the slideshow off. Go full screen.
This is a mother clinging to thegrave that's being bulldozed by

(01:44:21):
the IDF of her son. You see the bulldozer back there
behind? Yeah, they're digging up graves
of Palestinians. They're going to read what's
what, what they're going to do in this area in a second.

(01:44:42):
It's so awful. I mean, half of me, honestly.
You're surprised if any good executor on the spot.
Disgustingly. Enough.

(01:45:07):
Here they are digging up. You ever meet somebody and
they're so boring? You feel like they poisoned you?
Like, wait, you're talking to them and you're like, I feel
like I'm dying right now. Sorry.
It's just yeah, why? Fuck Facebook.
Sure, fuck Facebook for sure. Just auto playing the next

(01:45:29):
video. I had one more thing to show.
All right, and let's turn off the slideshow.
Let's turn it back on. Come on.
So I'm not showing my screen. This came again from Indy Media
Award honoree 2024 Ricky at Council of State Media.
The number one, the number one cause of child death on earth in

(01:45:50):
2025 is Israel. Read that again, then read that
again. Fuck Israel.
And that concludes our Fuck Israel segment for the evening.

(01:46:13):
So thank you for sticking with me on that.
We certainly will not be re monetized by YouTube for calling
all that out. So again, if you're able to what
it means, please support the media you want to see and
support channels like this that show you things that are not
being shown on corporate media. That's why we go to independence
and sources that that go as directly as possible ways to

(01:46:38):
support this channel. Dash app, Dollar sign, any news
network, co-v.com/anynews Network, PayPal dot me slash any
news network at indynewsnow.com,we're live.
We have a live section there, but we also have a support the
media and keep the media free. And that's where you can do a
Stripe donation also over at Substack monthly or annual.

(01:47:00):
You can do a contribution there at indymediatoday.com or at INN
newsletter.com. OK, I have got a couple of more
things for a Lightning round, then we can get out of here and
get to uncensored boats. And remember, no YouTube
tonight. It's only going to be Rumble
Kick and everywhere else. INN newsletter.com will be live

(01:47:23):
over there at Substack, but no YouTube.
The first thing that I wanted tomention is that Pro Publica has
been really making some waves. They published an article about
Americans being detained by ICE,which has now prompted a
bipartisan joint congressional investigation.

(01:47:45):
That's a good thing. What it will yield, I have no
idea. But the fact that they're
willing to look into at least 170 U.S. citizens being held by
ICE agents this year, that's awful.
So that's number one. Go check that out.

(01:48:06):
I'll link that in the description.
Our friend, brother, friend of the show, Keith McHenry.
Check out my INN one-on-one withhim from last year, a Co founder
of Food Not bombs. He writes over at
keithmchenry.substack.com. This fictional what what could

(01:48:26):
be dystopian article about dystopian digital terror.
And a couple of people read thisand were like, this was
frightening but really good. Thank you for sharing it.
And they subscribe to Keith. So support Keith.
Subscribe to him over on sub stack keithmchenry.substack.com.
Go check that out. Third, I also wanted to point

(01:48:49):
out that there was a good article in black agenda report
this week from someone named Hannah I'd who I did not know.
All right. And this article was talking
about data centers and the AI bubble, which doesn't really
surprise anyone. We've been talking again, quite
a bit about this, the amount of resources that it's accumulating

(01:49:10):
and, and, and taking up, but mapping out where these large
data centers are happening and the resources that they are
taking and again, making the argument on both sides, are
these jobs going to, are they going to replace jobs with a
GIAI? Skeptics see the AI

(01:49:32):
hallucinations, you mean outright lies, model collapse,
mental health crises exacerbatedby this tech as evidence of
damaging characteristics, right?It's other people see it as a
tool. There's a whole conversation
about this, right? So read this article.
This is really interesting aboutthe demand and the demand for

(01:49:54):
data capacity and data centers. The other article I wanted to
mention and recommend that everybody take a look at is from
Descent and Bloom friend of the show.
She'll be Co hosting the Justicefor Aspen live stream fundraiser
on Wednesday night on her Substack wrote an article this
week. The government is watching your

(01:50:14):
feed, tracing your money and using AI to decide who to
target. And this is again, a long
article that documents all right, they say it'll never
happen to us, but all of a sudden it's gone in the blink of
an eye, meaning they're disappearing your neighbors
national security. The next section is that the
government is, you know that that's their favorite excuse,

(01:50:38):
their shield, that in the justification of national
security, we've got XYZ. Silence doesn't protect you, It
just buys time and not much of it.
You're trading your rights for aman.
All right, but what happens whenhe's gone?
Trump won't live forever. She's literally addressing the
Trumpers that are defending thisright.

(01:51:00):
But where does this leave us? So check this one out.
I like this article. The only slight criticism I
would have is that it does not cite independent sources and
cites a lot of Associated Press corporate media.
I think that's also done to be able to potentially try to make
the case for those who don't necessarily subscribe to the

(01:51:24):
validity of independent media. And I think that there's value
in that for sure. But of course, we try to promote
and amplify and use independent voices wherever possible.
So check that out from the Center Blue.
I did want to again mention the Gofundmes.
We'll start with Shanda. Chanda again is battling her

(01:51:45):
next round of chemo and radiation and cancer coming back
in her liver and in her femur, in her bones and her legs.
And we're trying really hard to prevent it from reaching her
brain. For those who don't know about
Chanda's story, check out my one-on-one conversation with her

(01:52:06):
over at INN newsletter. All right, she had has gotten
zapped like 97 times. There she is with all with with
her hair before she has to lose it again.
She's back in treatments and October 7th was her last posting
over here when she started the rounds.

(01:52:26):
She's exhausted. Saturday night they did a beauty
and the Boomer Halloween special.
She looked great again to watch her.
You would never know that she's going through this and fuck
cancer for making her go throughthis and putting her through
this and and we love you. We're going to stand by you.
We're doing all we can. She's almost at $6000, just $10

(01:52:48):
shy of 6000. All of that helps.
Every dollar that you can donateto her go fund me help.
So please do that. Support our independent brothers
and sisters. Also.
I see the cowboy Kitty, our brothers in chat.
His sister-in-law Natalia was taken by ICE and put in an ICE
facility, locked up and has beenthere for months pending

(01:53:11):
possible deportation over a traffic stop over a registration
violation. Terrible.
She's been here nine years legally.
Currently in the process of applying for a green card as a
box truck driver. Got pulled over for registration
violation. They impounded the car and
arrested her and now they're talking about deporting her to

(01:53:32):
Ukraine where she left nine years ago.
Been doing all the right things.So please, if you're able to,
please support Cowboy Kitty sister-in-law and donate a
couple of bucks to this GoFundMe.
Thirdly, we have justice for Aspen and we aired last Saturday

(01:53:54):
night on INN the one-on-one thatI did with Aspen and her mother
Halo Benson. Aspen is a an Assange activist
27 year old autistic woman who was in an RV that got pulled
over on the way back from a music festival.
The festival was in Florida, they got pulled over in Georgia,

(01:54:16):
and the person driving the RV was a drug trafficker.
As it turns out, unbeknownst to her, was carrying a massive
amount of drugs, enough that it made it worthy of trafficking
and federal. And she's facing decades in
prison. And we're going to we're raising

(01:54:38):
all we can to try to help her with experts and a legal defense
fund and get to the next phase of her lawsuit, which at this
point is discovery. And this is federal.
We don't even know where the lawsuit necessarily will, where
the hearing will be. But we've got to get her a

(01:54:59):
lawyer. She's got to hire experts in
autism that talk about the effect that autistics have.
You know, the effect that Prism has prison has on autistics, on
how autistics are overly trusting and unable to sense
when somebody might be deceivingthem.

(01:55:20):
And the testimony of the person who was driving the RV who
admitted that it was not her, that she knew nothing about this
and had nothing to do with it. Cynthia Bloom wrote an
outstanding article about this. We read it on this show a couple
of weeks ago. The the reading of that article
is also here. There's our one-on-one.

(01:55:42):
We set up a link tree that also has a link to the GoFundMe and a
teaser trailer for the live stream, which again will be
Wednesday night on all of the INN channels.
And I'll set up the live stream in the next couple of days for
that. We've been using the hashtag
Justice for Aspen over on Twitter and on Facebook, but

(01:56:05):
mostly over on Twitter. And there's been a tweet storm
happening over there. So thank you to everyone who
shared with that. Unfortunately, our brother
Charlie Mack, who was one of themain organizers for this Justice
for Aspen fundraiser, he got hisTwitter account suspended
permanently today because of theamount of sharing that he's been

(01:56:26):
doing on this fundraiser, which is insane.
We should also be tagging and tweeting at X support to
reinstate his account because hedid nothing wrong.
He did not violate anything. Fuck Twitter.
Fuck Twitter is right. So here is the little fundraiser

(01:56:47):
trailer. Oh no, that's actually from the
one-on-one. Sorry.
The fundraiser trailer is in this article.
So if you go to Indy Media today, I put up an A post today.
All right, join us for a specialfundraiser to help with legal
expenses Wednesday, October 29th, 8:00 PM Eastern on all the

(01:57:11):
Indy News Network channels as well as over at Indy Media Today
and at Descent in Bloom on Substack.
Jessie Winston will have an interview with Milo and Aspen
and Descending Bloom is also going to join to talk about the
article that she wrote in some of the research that she'd done.

(01:57:34):
And then Jessie Jett is going tojoin and perform a half dozen
songs and spoken word pieces that Halo and Aspen have
requested. And then we're going to open it
up to everyone else to donate tothe GoFundMe and request a song
if you donate to it. And Jesse will do his best to
accommodate. Again, the GoFundMe is here.

(01:57:59):
OK. And I will drop the link in all
of the chats for everyone to be able to support that.
And again, I, you know, I've known Halo for several years.
Halo has been putting together activist boxes for Assange.
She was now doing it for fighting AIPAC and getting AIPAC

(01:58:21):
classified as a foreign lobby and making them register as a
foreign lobby. And unfortunately, this has
taken her out of doing that organizing.
And she feels terrible about it.I feel terrible for her.
But she's got to work focus on her family and what's in front
of her right now. And we've talked for hours this

(01:58:41):
week, one-on-one, just privately.
And she said that she thinks that this is some kind of a
coordinated effort at anybody that's making a splash, that
they're trying to take us all out in some way, shape or form.
I feel terrible about that. And so, yeah, watch the

(01:59:01):
one-on-one if you want to learn more about what had happened and
how they got pulled over, more about what happened while Aspen
was in that Georgia prison for 15 days, while Halo was sleeping
in her car outside the county, outside the county jail, and

(01:59:22):
what we can do now to help her going forward.
And just what their research hasfound about just how difficult
things are for autistic people in prison in the United States,
just how many autistic people are in prison in the United
States and how woefully insufficient our facilities are

(01:59:43):
to work with autistic people. It's it's just horrible.
So, yeah, Justice for Aspen Wednesday night.
Please join us on all the channels.
Please share whatever you can. If you see it on Twitter, go
into the sub stack for tonight'sfor tonight's show.

(02:00:06):
There'll be links to the video, links to the GoFundMe, links to
the link tree, and eventually there will be links to the live
stream. Once we have them, they can, you
know, put together. Shout out to Paula Iacela, Indie
Media Award honoree for Activismby the Way 2024, who commented.

(02:00:27):
Excellent informative interview,Aspen shined.
This shines a bright light on the intentional failures of a
dark justice quote UN quote system, focusing on the unjust
entrapment of Aspen, who was in the wrong place at the wrong
time and now her family is tangled in a legal web and
dealing with a steep financial burden.

(02:00:48):
Despite the despair, Mom Halo and Indy me discuss practical
advice such as programs and training for vulnerable
communities to help or avoid andnavigate the legal system.
All right, which is actively working against all of us,
especially those who can't defend themselves.
So please share using hashtags, Justice for Aspen and hashtag

(02:01:10):
autism, and if possible, donate UR code for the GoFundMe.
OK, link is starting at 8 minutes.
It's actually showing just aboutall throughout that entire
video. And again, I dropped it in all
the chats so everyone can click on that and donate hopefully.
And then I just want to show again one last time, indie news

(02:01:33):
now, and I'm going to refresh itbecause it's constantly updating
with new with new articles as people publish and as outlets
publish again. You got Mondo Whites, you got JB
over on Sub Stack and Anti War. And this is just in the last
hour. A skeptic put up their Sub Stack
article recently. All right, And Chicho, we, we

(02:01:56):
show his Rumble videos and our friend George Hazim over on Sub
Stack. Shout out to George.
All these articles get pulled inand I don't pull in the whole
article. I link you to the article on the
website. I want you to visit those sites
and to see and to read it on those sites.
This is just like a central place to find all of them and
then branch out from there. All right, and of course merch.

(02:02:20):
Buy my merch right quick. All right, that is the inn shop
which you can get to from any news.
Now click on the merch link and you could again get inn
T-shirts, red, red tie T-shirts.We deserve better Psyops.
When a people are occupied, resistance is justified.

(02:02:41):
Tank tops. My dial doesn't go to delicate.
That's a Jessie Jet T-shirt, right?
We got a ton of different shirtsover here.
There's your Care bear. Everybody loves Colin Radix
Carter, get your Care Bear T-shirt.
All right, 20 bucks, 20 bucks, reasonable.
And they they even have it in black.
You can get it in black too. 20 bucks.

(02:03:04):
I think Black's 2 bucks more. All right, go to my website.
Right. All right, everyone, we're
getting ready for uncensored boats.
We're not going to be over on YouTube tonight, so join us over
on Rumble, join us on Kik, join us at INN newsletter.
Join us everywhere else but YouTube on the Ocho and Rumble.

(02:03:25):
We're going to be on INN 8, the Ocho, not on the regular INN
channel. So check us out over there.
Reef. Do you have a link to drop over
there? If not, I'll I'll take care of
that. I got it here.
OK, copy link address. You did you got it good.
Thank you. All right everyone, let's all go

(02:03:47):
to the lobby and get ourselves atreat.
I need a snack. I need AI, need AI, need a dab,
and then we can get started. So thank you again, everyone for
hanging support independent media because we need it more
than ever. I'll see you in two weeks.
We're off next Sunday, so we'll see you in two weeks.

(02:04:08):
I love you all, have a great night everyone.
Night. Ciao, baby.
I'll be back. No, we just fucking lost the
stream. I think I liked it better being

(02:04:38):
blind when I couldn't read between the lions and when I
couldn't see the cracks in the structure that lay bare before
me the whole time. I think I liked it better back
when I suspended disbelief and swallow in pride.
I thought I knew the difference in the red from the blue, But

(02:05:00):
they both bleed us so dry. They both bleed us so dry.
My favorite songs don't hit the same way.
I get to the end of a 4 minute track and I'm only looking back
thinking what did they actually say?
I guess this isn't such an awfulplace.

(02:05:22):
It's now what you want me to say.
Hey, you prove it's possible to sleep for days and they still
think you're right here away. The cost of living isn't much to
me.
