You're listening to The Young Turks, the online news show. Make sure to follow and rate our show with not one, not two, not three, not four, but five stars. You're awesome. Thank you. All right, welcome to the Young Turks, Jank Ugar, Anna Kasparian with you guys, both in studio. What is this? Okay, so we're gonna have a fun show, of course, although, of course, lots of disastrous news, what are we gonna do? We're in the news business.

Potentially some good news when it comes to, no? No, no, I think great news. Oh, so that's what I was leading up to. So there's some terrible news we'll get through and they're very important, right? But there is one piece of news here in this rundown that might be fantastic. It's going to receive a lot of attacks though, and we're gonna see if it survives, but we'll tell you all about it. Well, we don't want the rundown to run you down, so let's get started. You ready?

Oh, okay. All right, we do start with a disastrous story though, let's do it. Boulder police responding to calls of people being set on fire during a peaceful demonstration in support of Israeli hostages. There's multiple mixed reports about if people are on fire and out we're getting lots of time on one call. The group meets regularly and is affiliated with the organization Run for their lives. One of their leaders says a man was waiting for them and began throwing a box of bottles

at them, saying several people were set on fire, one, an elderly woman. images of a man holding what appears to be two Molotov cocktails. Well, that man that you just saw in that video launched a horrific attack on demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado over the weekend. The individuals had gathered in support of the Israeli hostages who remain in captivity held by Hamas in the Gaza strip. Now using Molotov cocktails and a makeshift flamethrower, the man injured eight people and is now being held on multiple charges, including a federal hate crime. Now, the assault or the assailant, I should say, attacked a weekly

walk that's actually organized by a Jewish group called Run for their lives. And Cenk, you know, these idiotic attacks happen. And I'm not sure if the attackers are under any assumption that this is going to have any impact on what's currently happening in the Middle East. But all it does is harm demonstrators who want to peacefully demonstrate in support of Palestinians, it hurts the Palestinian cause, and it targets innocent people, including elderly individuals who aren't doing anything wrong, they're exercising their rights in getting together to hold a demonstration in support of the, you know, hostages that remain captive in Gaza.

Yeah, so as usual with these type of attacks, they are stupid, immoral, counterproductive, disgusting. So and so people get upset sometimes when I say counterproductive. So let me break that down for you guys. Number one, one of the people attacked was a Jewish woman who was for peace. So counterproductive as in you're attacking people who are on your side because you're using metric that makes no sense. Jewish or not Jewish? Well, tons of Jewish people in this country are for peace and for the Palestinian cause of just having two independent states there, et cetera. Number two, you allow people to come in and smear the peace movement overall,

as we're going to show you later in the show, right? So, you know, they'll be used as an excuse to say that anyone saying free Palestine is a terrorist. Literally what happened on cable news today. So deeply counterproductive. Does that mean that it is just counterproductive and not even? No, both things are true. It's also deeply immoral to burn people alive, especially if you were complaining as you should be

that Israelis are burning people alive. Oh, they're so bad and immoral. Watch, I'm gonna do the same thing. Yeah. Is not the win you think it is. It's super dumb. I've got a lot more where that came from. All right, now the attendees, again,

were peacefully calling for the release of Israeli hostages. Now, during the attack, the assailant yelled slurs, slurs as well as free Palestine. And now thanks to the fact that this terrible person had used that phrase, as Jank mentions, you see on cable news, all sorts of people saying anyone who utters that phrase is anti-Semitic. Now during the attack, he did yell that. A witness to the attack told CNN that he saw a man trying to talk the suspect down, but

the suspect kept yelling, FU Zionist, you all deserve to die, and you've killed these children. Now, here are more witnesses recounting what they saw during this attack. I saw fire. I saw people falling and screaming and crying and tripping. He had three mullochov cocktails. One of them he threw inside of a group at the group and one lady lit on fire from head to toe. Shoots of fire linear about 20 feet long. Spears of fire.

Two of them at least came across. right into the group about 15 feet from me. Another witness said that one of the victims' pants were completely burnt off and that it looked like their skin had just melted off their bodies. The eight victims, which consisted of four men and four women, ranged from ages 52 to 88 years old. And what may have prevented more innocent people from being hurt or killed was the assailant's own story. stupidity, which shouldn't surprise anyone because you have to be an idiot to carry out this act of violence. After the initial attack, a witness said the suspect went behind some

bushes and then reemerged and threw a Molotov cocktail, but apparently accidentally caught himself on fire as he threw it. The man then took off his shirt and what appeared to be a bulletproof vest before the police arrived. The man dropped to the ground and was arrested without any apparent resistance. So just to give you some more details on the suspect here, He is actually an Egyptian national. His name is Mohammed Sabri Solomon. There's an image of him. He's 45 years old and was denied a visa to enter the United States back in 2005.

Now according to the Department of Homeland Security, he entered the United States on a tourist visa in August of 2022. Now that visa reportedly expired by February of 2023, though Solomon had also applied for asylum in separate. September of 2022. Now DHS hasn't clarified where his asylum case stood as this attack happened, but says that he was in the country illegally. Now online records also show that he was booked on two counts of murder in the first degree, which look, luckily no one died. I don't know if the murder charge will remain and I hope everyone recovers. It's just such a horrific attack. But the circumstances around those charges again, unclear since no deaths resulted from the heinous attack that he carried out.

He was also charged with using explosive or incendiary devices during a felony. And now he's been charged with a federal hate crime. So just some details on that. A criminal complaint said, Solomon specifically targeted the Zionist group that had gathered in Boulder, having learned about the group from an online search, and that he had been planning the attack for a year. He stated that he wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished

They were all dead, the complaint said. So attacking, look, not only was this a heinous attack that caused severe injuries to innocent people. What this obviously does is it creates a chilling effect when it comes to Americans exercising their right to speech, to assemble, to protest, to demonstrate. And what makes this even worse, I mean, it's terrible in every single way. But what makes it even worse is these are people who were demonstrating for peace. And he decided it's a good idea to attack these people.

Yeah, they were largely demonstrating to get the hostage's homes, which is a perfectly great thing to demonstrate for. They weren't demonstrating in favor of the war. And by the way, it wouldn't matter if they were, okay. And so I'm gonna do my screed against violence in a second. But first, so this guy's not an American citizen, don't jump out there and say deport them. Why? Because I want to keep him here? No, because we got to bring him to justice first. Like, I don't want him going to another country and not going to jail.

He needs to go to jail for 20, 30, 40 years here, right? You try to burn eight people alive. You better serve a lot of time in prison, okay? Then you could deport him. But bring him to justice first. Lynn Siegel is 72 years old. I'm not sure if she was a woman in that video. I just read about her in an Associated Press article, but you saw the woman in the video had to free Palestine shirt on.

And so, and Lynn Siegel's in favor of freeing Palestine, and she was in the area and she rushed in to help. She was worried that people were going to think that she's with a perpetrator. You see what I'm saying about how dumb and counterproductive screaming free Palestine is after you do an act of terrorism? It is the dumbest thing you could possibly do. And again, I'm going to reemphasize 100 times immoral. Uriaheep is one of our members, and she wrote in, this idiot has destroyed the peace of this city. It's a college down with all the bells and whistles of a peaceful place to engage. Now they'll always have this dark stain forever.

I live near Columbine High School. I can't pass this without sadness. Right. So I mean, my God has that area suffered. There's been multiple mass shootings there, now this. By the way, I have a family member very close to there. So look, you just, terrorism is so dumb. And look, two things about the violence.

Number one, violence is an admission of defeat, saying, I can't win an argument. I am surrendering intellectually, and I will now resort to violence. Number two, if you're in the peace movement, you should be by definition against violence. Otherwise, you're not really in the peace movement. You're just in the movement of, I'd like my side to win and kill everyone else. And I'm not at all interested in that side, not 1%. I can't stand that side. So the side I'm in favor of is no one dies. No civilians die. Hopefully no soldiers die. We have no war.

That's what we should all be in favor of. And if you're in favor of that, people like this set back that movement tremendously. Because what happens next is you're not allowed to say free Palestine, otherwise you want to kill all the Jews. They literally said it on cable news today. So please, please do not do any acts of violence. It's totally against our, every principle that we stand for. So if you do that, you're by definition saying, I'm on the other side. Whether it's Israel or Hamas, I just love terrorism. And I'm in favor of violence as long as it happens to the other side. And I can't stand that.

Yeah, and this story, this horrific event is being used to essentially make phrases like free Palestine taboo. So I'll give you a specific example. Just today, CNN's Dana Bash was interviewing a Democratic congressman by the name of Greg Lansman. He's from Ohio. And she asked him to connect the dots between the suspects behind recent anti-Semitic attacks in Boulder, Colorado and Washington, D.C., saying, you know, they seem to say the same phrases. As if every single person who uses a phrase indicating they want to free Palestine is going to carry out acts of violence. Obviously, the vast majority of individuals who believe that Palestinians should have their own state do not engage in violence, would never engage in violence, and see what's happening in the Middle East right now is a gross injustice of the rights, the humanitarian rights, and the right to self-determination for the Palestinian people. But the Democratic congressman said, yes, there's three phrases here that people should get to know better. One of them is the use of Zionism, and I believe he said, and Zionism is simply the idea of, of a Jewish self-determination.

So anyone who says that they're against Zionism, connect the dots, maybe a dangerous person. But then he goes on to say that phrases like Free Palestine are problematic. And then the third has to do with Free Palestine. If you believe that Israel is there and should not be there, the idea of Free Palestine means not peace for Palestinians, which this group was supporting,

which I support and am working for, Free Palestine means getting rid of all the Jews. No, it doesn't mean that. It doesn't mean that. The vast majority of people who say free Palestine want the Palestinian people to have their own state, something that was supposed to be granted to them already, but wasn't granted to them because of the Israeli government preventing it from happening. So Israelis get self-determination, but the Palestinian people don't get that.

And anyone who calls for that is apparently anti-Semitic. we should keep an eye on them because they're going to carry out acts of violence. Yeah, absurd. Yeah, so Greg Landsman should be voted out of office. You should make sure that you go to the primary in his district and vote against them. So, so now trying to free Palestinians is going to get you labeled, not just anti-Semite, that's old school, right? But that you want to kill all Jews because you want Palestine to be free. Okay, that's the ravings of a lunatic mind.

I'm not interested in a person with mental deficiencies being a U.S. congressman. Oh, he's a Democrat. Who cares? I mean, Joe Biden co-signed on this genocide. You know, later in the show we have one of us spokespeople going, oops, we should have stopped Israel, but we didn't, because that money was super sweet, right? The campaign contributions? Okay, so Lansman says that if freeing

Palestine, now any statement in favor of Palestine, of course, means you want to murder all the Jews, all of them, right? And that's what a person says when they think, I've got a good trick here. Let me use this terrorist attack against innocent people for my political purposes. Let me make sure that no one's allowed to criticize Israel, even though I'm a U.S. congressman. And if they ever criticize, I'm going to get to smear them and say, oh, the people for peace, oh, they want to murder everyone. Okay, but by your logic, Reverend. Representative Landsman, your logic is so bad, I don't even want to get into it. Because according to your logic, not my logic, I hate your logic.

Your logic is, well, somebody killed Palestinians in Gaza, those are IDF, and they didn't injure eight people, they killed over 54,000. So hold on, hold on, let me finish his logic. Then anyone's saying that they're in favor of Israel want to murder all Palestinians. So are you a murderer landsman? Are you a murderer? Oh, right. Oh, when it comes to Israel, don't generalize.

Generalizing is terrible. When it comes to Palestinians and Muslims and people who want peace, just generalize, call them all Jew killers so we can shut them up so my beloved Israel can go on murdering people. Don't tell me your against this attack, but you're not as outraged apparently at all about the 54,000 dead. Over the 30,000 women and children, a stadium full of women and children massacred, slaughtered by Israel. But you're only allowed to get upset about this attack.

You're not allowed to get upset about a stadium full of dead people. Let me guess, Representative Lansman, how dare you criticize Israel? Anti-Semite, killer of all just shut up. You're the exact kind of violent warmonger that it continues the cycle of endless. violence. I remember when a young boy was killed, a Palestinian American boy was killed by the landlord on, it was October 30th of 2023. And he carried out this killing of a young boy as Israel was engaging in self-defense, right? As they had just invaded Gaza, as they were carrying out the bombardments that we've been covering on this show since.

day one. So was, I mean, like, did anyone care about that, by the way? Literally, literally. No one. Dana Bish, where were you, Danabash? Who cares? I mean, it was a six year old Palestinian American boy who was killed by their landlord because of what, I mean, what should I say? Should I say anyone who was condemning the acts of Hamas is now responsible for the death, for the murder of a six year old boy in Illinois?

How dare you criticize Hamas? Danabash and landsman, representative, that's not my opinion. I think that's outrageous. I criticize Amaz all the time. All the time. But according to their insanely dumb logic, well, if you criticize Hamas, you murdered that kid. So I guess you guys are murderers. By the way, did you guys do nonstop coverage of that?

We're doing coverage of this terrible heinous terrorist attack. We do coverage of every single terrorist attack like this. So did CNN give that equal coverage? No, it's just a Palestinian. kid. It's only a six year old Palestinian. I mean, after all, Israel is slaughtering them by the hundreds, by the thousands. So let me guess, Palestinian lives not nearly as important or relevant. Yeah, that's been pretty clear in the way our legacy media has been covering this ongoing genocide in Gaza. For now, we got to take a break, jank. When we come back, we've got

a lot more to get to, including a possible new nuclear deal that looks a lot like the old nuclear deal with Iran, but if Trump signs it, I will allow it. And there's a lot of pressure for him to not engage in diplomacy with Iran. We'll tell you about all the details when we come back. All right, Lady AF, thank you for sending in five Young Turks memberships on YouTube. We appreciate you. Jenkinanna, back here on the Young Turks. I want to read a lot more of your comments in the next break because a lot of terrific comments about the Boulder, Colorado shooting. I'm glad that you're all enraged by what happened.

All right, Anna. Well, we've got some interesting reporting from Barack Ravid over at Axios in regard to a possible nuclear deal between various countries and Iran. So let's get to those details and, well, this growing fight within the Republican Party. The split between the America First MAGA Republicans and the neocons in the Republican Party grows wider as President Donald Trump is allegedly poised to sign a new Iran nuclear deal that would allow Tehran to enrich enough uranium to provide their country with power, but not to develop a nuclear. weapon. Now, Iran is an oil-producing country. Some might argue why would Iran need nuclear power if they have oil? Well, their entire economy is reliant on exporting that oil, and they use nuclear energy in order to provide their citizens with electricity. And so in the original Iran nuclear deal, there was an allowance for Tehran to produce enough enriched uranium in

order to provide electricity for their people, but clearly not enough to build a nuclear weapon. So the nuclear deal proposal the U.S. gave Iran on Saturday would allow limited low level uranium enrichment on Iranian soil for a to be determined period of time. And guess what? Believe it or not, the White House isn't denying this. So White House press Secretary Caroline Levitt said in a statement that President Trump has made it clear that Iran can never obtain a nuclear bomb. Special envoy Whitkoff has sent a detailed and acceptable proposal to the Iranian regime, and it's in their best interest to accept it. Out of respect for the ongoing deal, the administration will not comment on details of the

proposal to the media. Now, on Sunday, interestingly enough, Whitkoff had submitted what was described as preliminary ideas to be discussed in the next round of talks. So under the proposal, Iran would not be allowed to build any new enrichment facilities and must dismantle critical infrastructure for conversion. and processing of uranium, the proposal also states that Iran would have to halt new research and development on centrifuges. Now, the Iran deal will create a regional enrichment consortium that meets several conditions, including the fact that Iran won't be allowed to develop

domestic enrichment capabilities beyond those necessary for civilian purposes. After signing the agreement, Iran will have to temporarily reduce its enrichment concentration to 3%. This This period will be agreed upon in negotiations. Iran's underground enrichment facilities will have to become non-operational for a period of time agreed by the parties. And the enrichment activity in Iran's above ground facilities will temporarily be limited to the level needed for nuclear reactor fuel according to international atomic energy agency guidelines.

So look, there are Democrats who are criticizing this, I think stupidly, because they're like, well, this sounds like Obama's nuclear nuclear. deal that Trump ripped up. Listen, Trump did rip up the original Iran nuclear deal that was accomplished during the Obama administration. And that was a bad move, something that we harshly criticized Trump for doing. That being said, we are living in a new era where there are two options before us. One of them is to go to war with Iran, which is a far superior military power than Iraq, and we would do so on behalf of Israel. That would be a disaster. We should want to prevent that from happening. So if there is a possibility for a new nuclear deal, even if it's the same

as Obama's deal, we should be in favor of that. We should be celebrating that rather than playing this ridiculous, you know, partisan hack tribal BS that I keep seeing online. Yeah. I get it. Trump bad. He ripped up the Iran nuclear deal. Yes, that is true. There's a possibility for peace. We should be in favor of it and not go in the way of the neocons who are trying to discourage Trump from doing this and we'll get to the neocons in a moment. Yeah, I'm definitely gonna get to them in a sec, because I think I'm gonna say some very harsh things about anyone opposed to this deal. So first, let me just clarify my views on it, just like Anna said, they cannot enrich uranium

for military purposes anymore. That means they will not have nukes. They won't be able to process any uranium in Iran going forward. That's an amazing deal. The uranium gets processed outside their country and brought in only for, you know, for uranium. energy purposes, and by the way, if you don't know uranium for energy, civil energy purposes, is very different than one that is weaponized for a bomb. Very, very different. That is why many countries have it and we're not freaked out by it. Okay. So now, so it's a great deal.

It means that they will not have nukes and we will have peace. What do we give up? Absolutely nothing. We loosen sanctions on Iran. Yeah. Yeah. We losing sanctions. Who cares? We were sanctioning them. That's like, it's not like we were getting the money. It's not like there's any downside for us. We're just removing some of the sanctions we have on a different country. It doesn't cost us anything. The only thing that it does is it prevents war. We were saying Iran, we're going to attack you, we're going to kill you, destroy you, et cetera. Now we won't. That's how a peace deal works. Okay. Now, the people opposed to it, Anna's rights, some are Democrats who go, oh, yeah, this is like the Obama deal, man. Think great, you should be in favor of it.

End of question, period. If you thought the Obama deal was great, which I think it was great, and you think this is similar to the Obama deal, great, then you love it, right? Or are you actually deranged? Like, it's a real question. Like, do you want to go to war with Iran just despite Trump? Yes, some people do. Like, literally, literally, you'll see them all over the internet right now. It's amazing. It's literally, I don't care about the two parties at all, okay? I'm so past the partisanship because I see deep flaws with both parties. I know that's gonna offend a lot of people, but it's just how I feel about it. So at this point, we gotta make do with what we've got. And right now, the president of the United States, whether people like it or not, is Donald Trump. If he is

inclined to pursue a peace deal or a new nuclear deal with Iran that prevents war, then we should be happy to see it. Now, do I believe that he's gonna go in that direction for sure? I don't. You never know which direction Trump is gonna go in. This is a very sensitive situation and I'm terrified that he will be swayed by the neocons to go in the wrong direction. Yeah, so I wanna get to that as well.

First of all, Annie, no, you're definitely not alone. The Democratic Party is pulling at 19%. Yes, there's something deeply wrong with both parties. If you're in the blue and on camp where you still think democratic leadership are geniuses, and honest, and angels, hey, listen, man, look, mental health facilities that need customers do. So, God bless you, okay? Well, we don't have them. Okay, so.

Like, like angels, you really think that people taking a billion dollars from donors? The people who lost to Donald Trump twice are geniuses? Come on, come on, please stop embarrassing yourself. We gotta get to video conference. I know, hold on, I'm getting there. So now look, in terms of the direction, if you say, well, I don't trust Trump, I don't know that he's going to get there. What do you want to do then? You want to encourage him and his base to move in that direction, not against that direction. So if you go, well, I'm a little skeptical. I mean, I really like the deal, it's like the Obama deal, but I'm a little skeptical.

So why don't I just call him a racist? No, wait, what? Why? Why? I'll just call him a Nazi. Why? Why? If he's going in the right direction, you encourage that. You don't discourage that, unless again, you're a moron. Okay, so I'm going to get to the neocons as well. Go ahead. And by the way, who wants to be in the same room as the neocons? I don't. Yeah, tons of Democrats, too.

Okay, tons of because a lot of the Democrats, the ones we're talking about, yes, some are politicians, some are real people, et cetera. The people who are desperate to make sure this deal doesn't happen that are politicians, they don't work for America. They work for Israel. Yeah, I said it, and I'll say it two more times. Anyone, any politician opposed to this deal, Republican or Democrat, is a traitor. They don't work for America, they want to have us go to war with Iran on behalf of Israel.

Okay, go ahead, go ahead, this deal is excellent. It makes no sense to oppose it unless you got an order from your babysitter, as Thomas Massey puts it. Israeli agents who like literally shepherd every congressperson and tell them, you will vote, no, You will vote for war, send Americans to die instead of us. They go, yes, sir, yes, sir. Go ahead, go ahead, I dare you, be against this peace deal. Go ahead, Anna. hilariously wrote that by making this offer,

the Trump administration is risking backlash from its allies on the hill and in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Nanyahu's government and dozens of Republican senators have pushed the administration to maintain red lines on zero nuclear enrichment and the full dismantlement of Iran's nuclear program. Oh, we've gotten orders from Israel.

Wow, I didn't know that. I guess we should all bow down to a different country who would like us to lose our lives and our fortune fighting their wars just like they did in Iraq. Oh, okay, we don't care at all. If you see any hosts on the right or the left, you see any politicians on the right or the left being against this deal, they don't work for us. Okay, they have another country's best interest in mind. So look, all of the neo-conservatives of the Bush era, they didn't just disappear. I mean, they're still here, okay?

They were lurking in the shadows for a while because there wasn't a war that they could rally support for. But now all of a sudden, they're coming out, and it's very reminiscent of all of the calls to war we were hearing in the lead up to the 2003 Iraq invasion. So let me give you some specific examples. You have Mark Dubowitz, who is the CEO of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. He writes on X, President Trump, all of his top officials, 52 GOP senators, and 177,000. House Republicans demanded zero enrichment capability and full dismantlement of Iran's nuclear program. Now, the U.S. is offering a deal that lets Iran keep enriching. My understanding is the enrichment would happen off-site, out of the country, right?

Yeah. So let me explain what that group is. They changed their name to defense of democracy because they wanted to pretend that it was, oh, Israel and America are in it together and we're protecting democracy together. Nonsense. That's the Israeli lobby. So that's A-PAC and the other groups that their whole job is to control America on behalf of Israel. That's literal. That's the only reason they're formed so that America follows Israel's orders. So there is no other reason for A-PAC or anyone in that group.

So that's why he's lying. Iran will not be able to enrich uranium at home going forward. And in terms of bringing it down to Syria, tons of countries have nuclear energy with low-enriched uranium. Just because it's the same word doesn't mean that it's the same concept. It is completely different to enrich it at a much, much, much higher level for weapons. And we are all aware of that. And that is why the international community does not mind sending, Iran having a nuclear energy program like tons of countries in the world.

Right. Now, Mark Levin, my favorite neocon, who thinks even uttering the word neocon is anti-Semitic. Of course. Speaking is anti-Semitic unless you agree with Mark Levin and bow your head to Israel. Mark, you should, you know what, if you love Israel so much, why don't you go? I mean, you'll get to kill, you'll vote for killing a lot more Palestinians. So, oh, right, the money's here and you need to send the money over there, I got you. Okay.

So he writes, can this be true? We will know very soon, Senate must use its treaty power either way. In other words, F the executive branch, we should, you know, have Congress do what it needs to do. That's really important, because that's Mark Levin saying, I give up on Trump. He might actually want peace. So all you bought bitches in Congress, all the ones we purchased. By the way, out of the 535 people in Congress, 502 take money from APEC and affiliated groups. Israel didn't purchase them for no reason.

This is Mark saying, I'm now activating the Israeli agents inside the U.S. government. you better vote for war and go and if you're a Republican, we don't care about even what Trump says. You'll lose your goddamn job if you need to, okay? But you work for Israel, not America. All right, one guy from Red State says, if you spent a decade trashing the JCPOA, that was the original Iran nuclear deal, and we all did because it was garbage, then don't be the clown that supports this just because it's your side. No, I, there is definitely a faction within the Republican base, the so-called America

First, Maga-Republicans who don't want war. I know it's hard for the neocons to accept that there's a huge portion of the Republican base that doesn't want to go to war with Iran on behalf of Israel, but they exist. And honestly, it's one of the more positive developments I've seen within the Republican Party. I have a tremendous amount of respect for those particular voters who can see clearly, who know what's going on here, and flat out reject the neoconservatives of the Bush era. Probably because the neoconservatives of the Bush era sent their family members to war in Iraq. Multiple deployments. Afghanistan as well. And what do we get for it?

Taliban still in control of Afghanistan. We lost over 4,000 soldiers in Iraq. Hundreds of thousands of civilians in Iraq died as a result of that war. A complete disaster. Yeah. So look, if you're back to the tribalism inside the US, if you're on the Democratic side and you say, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, I just, I hate Trump, I hate MAGA, and I have a closed mind, I don't wanna hear it, you're totally wrong. It's not a little portion of MAGA, it's a big portion of MAGA that is anti-war.

So I know a lot of people don't wanna hear that. No, I don't want the truth, I don't want reality, I like hating so much. Neocons won, Jank. Neocons won, that's it. What up? That's it. On truth social, Trump just posted, the auto pen should have stopped Iran a long time ago from enriching under our potential agreement. We will not allow any enrichment of uranium.

Okay, that's it. So he got bribed. So this was all a matter of just getting bribed. Congratulations, Donald Trump. By the way, I was just giving Matt, I was in the middle of giving Maga credit. Now let's see if they earn it, okay? So are you now going to switch your position entirely and go, well, Daddy Trump got bribed? got bribed. So Israel first. Mark Levin is probably just ecstatic now. I told you we're

going to buy him and we bought him, right? So now, by the way, prepare your sons and daughters for war because Israel demands us to go to war. And by the way, and I want to get to Biden because Biden, what did you do? Did you put us back into Obama peace deal? That he promised to do when he was- And it's the easiest thing in the world. You were his vice president. Why don't you put us back in? No, because you work for. for Israel. And now Trump says, just kidding, I'm not the president of America. And I don't believe in America first. I believe in America dead last and whoever the hell bribes me way above them. Now you see right in the middle of this story as the story breaks, do you see me

in favor of Trump or opposed to Trump? It depends on what he does. Please care about policy. Please stop being egomaniacs on both sides. So now I turn around my criticism to MAGA. Go ahead, MAGA. Go ahead, show me who you are. Are you actually anti-war or are you? Oh, no, Trump got bribed by APEC. We're good, we're good.

Show me who you are. This country's hopeless. All right, we gotta take a break. We'll be right back. One as unexpected as that is. No, it's very similar on those grounds, but apparently Trump already switched this position. This is what he did with the NRA in the first term too. Like he's like, oh, you know, they all take money from the NRA, but I don't, I'm gonna stop the shootings.

The next day he met with NRA, he's like, I met with NRA and they were very persuasive, and they gave him a whole bunch of campaign contributions. He's like, so the mass shootings continue, right? He's just, Qatar, can we please have you bribe now is a bigger number than Israel, so he'll go back to being in the peace deal? Jesus Christ, man. Visionary says Anna, many Bush neo-cons never went away. They became host on MSNBC.

That's absolutely true. 100% true, 100%. You're right, why take yes for an answer? Obama took Mitz Health Care and called it the Affordable Care Act. No one will care after it's signed. Yeah, totally agree. Kaley says, I'm not praising Trump for fixing what he broke. Kaylee, it doesn't matter, you don't have to praise him at all because he proved that he

was a clown just a minute ago. Now he flip flops back, because which he does all the time. I'll go back to saying credit where credit is due. I don't care, I just care about the policy. Can I just say- Who gets credit for it? That's a lovely thing that we discussed later. Let's just make sure we don't go to war.

Please don't allow your family members to join the United States military. I hate to say it, but it's not a military in honor of protecting America, on American soil. The way our soldiers get used for the interests of other countries is pretty disgusting. So I mean, if I had a family member considering enlisting, I would do anything and everything to discourage them. If I have to tie them up in a basement somewhere, I would do that. Yeah. Cabbage rights, and yes, we must give them credit for fixing stuff. They broke. That's more than the neighbor will do. So, yeah, he did break it. Don't get me wrong. We said that right at the top.

Spider-Man Dragon says, Neocons crying like babies because they don't get their fourth conflict in the Middle East. How are they going to get contracts for their military daddies? I'm sure they'll cause a conflict somewhere else. And by the way, it might not have been Israel that bribed Trump. It might have been Raytheon and Lockheed Martin. They love war. They make unbelievable amounts of money from your death. and destruction. They're literally built for that. So those companies are disgusting. Hakuna Matata says, him saying you kill people,

so I'm gonna kill you, isn't a leg to stand on. 100% right, we'll be back. All right, back on T.I.T. Chancanana with you guys. Now that we've taken the one great news story and broken it in the middle. Yeah. Biggest mistake you can make in America is being an American that has any hope in our government. Don't ever make that mistake, regardless of who's in charge. Let's get to our next story. The head of the United Nations is calling for an independent investigation following a deadly

incident at a Gaza aid site on Sunday. At least 31 people were killed and more than 200 wounded. According to eyewitnesses on the ground and doctors who spoke to NBC News, they say the Israeli defense forces open fire on a group of civilians gathering at an aid distribution point. Now the IDF and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, the group distributing that aid, deny the military open fire on civilians. Well, no one should take anything, anyone in the IDF has to say at face value, and we're going to kind of delve into this story and try to figure out what's going on.

As NBC News reports, there is a new Israel approved aid distribution system on the ground in Gaza, in lieu of UNRWA, which they effectively defamed and pushed out of the region. Unsurprisingly, it's not off to a great start, as over two dozen Palestinians have been killed. That happened at one point at one of the aid sites just this past weekend on Sunday. Now, the IDF insists that it is not to blame for the carnage. And if you're wondering if we should believe them, well, reporter Jeremy Skehill, who's the co-founder of DropSight News, argues no, and here's why. The Israelis unleash gunfire and other attacks on this crowd.

And as videos and reports start coming out of Gaza depicting this, and we start hearing international doctors that are on the ground there describing the injuries that they're treating, Israel then puts out a video that it says actually shows Hamas was firing on people retrieving aid. Well, that video that the Israelis put out has now been geolocated, and it wasn't near Rafa, where this Whitkoff massacre, as the Palestinians are calling it, occurred. But actually had occurred at a different time. And it wasn't Hamas that was actually firing on Palestinians. It was a private gang that there's significant evidence to suggest is being bankrolled or backed by the Israelis to operate as kind of an armed thug force that is selling aid to Palestinians.

Real classy. Now the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is the name of this new group that's allegedly trying to get humanitarian aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. There are four new aid distribution sites in Gaza. All of them are in the southern half of the territory. The sites are controlled by the United States and Israel supported. the Gaza Humanitarian Aid Foundation, or GHF, and it's run by American security contractors, ex-military officers, and humanitarian aid officials.

The Associated Press reports that it is not known where the funding for this organization is even coming from. The GHF states that it has over $100 million in commitments from an EU government, but they haven't been clear or upfront about which government they're talking about, which European country is funding them, and the organization was being run by a United States military veteran by the name of Jake Wood, but he actually recently stepped down. He stated he was resigning because it was clear the organization would not be allowed to operate independently, which is the least surprising part of this story.

Now Muhammad Salem, who is a father of five in Gaza, told drop site news about what it is like to get aid from one of GHF's sites. And here's what he experienced just last week on Tuesday. Quote, when I arrived at the site, I saw hundreds of people lining up in front of iron gates surrounded by security forces topped with surveillance cameras. The entry process was strict, starting with ID checks and ending with an eye scan, which significantly slowed down access. As the crowd swelled, people began pushing toward the gate and broke through the fence

by force, causing the security personnel to flee. The entire scene descended into chaos as people rushed toward the stacked aid parcels in a desperate attempt to grab whatever they could. I was lucky that I managed to grab two food parcels amidst the chaos. As people tried to leave with whatever they had taken, Israeli helicopters flew overhead and opened fire on the crowd, injuring dozens. Now he had to travel around two and a half miles to reach the hubs, which is dangerous on on its own, because if Palestinians make the wrong move, if they happen to be in a zone

that Israel has marked as like a war zone within the Gaza Strip, I mean the whole strip is a war zone, but there are certain areas where they'll just start shooting and killing without asking any questions. Now the GHF has stated that it'll make more hubs available in the north within the next 30 days, but has not stated exactly where they plan to do it. aid officials across the UN and other international humanitarian aid organizations have denounced the program describing the conditions as resembling concentration camps or ghettos. And Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not seem to have much interest in making

or creating more aid sites within the Gaza Strip. Just last week, he said that under the aid mechanism, Gaza's population would eventually be moved to a sterile zone in Gaza's far south. He said that it was for their protection while Israeli forces fight Hamas elsewhere. He also said once the Palestinians enter the area, they don't necessarily go back. Well, we already know that Israel's plan is to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from the Gaza strip to steal their land. And the notion that they're being moved to a tiny, tiny part of the region in the south for their safety is very reminiscent of how Palestinians in the north were evacuated to the

south so the IDF can bomb them as they evacuated to the south. I don't believe Netanyahu at all. I don't believe the IDF at all. And I mean, we all remember what various members of the Israeli government were saying about humanitarian aid being let into the Gaza Strip recently. They said they just wanted to provide a facade that they're providing humanitarian aid in order to not get any pushback from Americans in order to get all the weapons and bombs they need to continue carrying out the slaughter of Palestinians in this ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Jake. So this is genocide 101. So first of all, in almost every genocide, the aggressor says they were just moving the ethnic minority for their own safety. So the Germans said they were moving the Jews for their safety. It turns out they were lying. The Turks said they were moving the Armenians for their safety. Turns out they were lying. Now here comes to Israelis saying, oh, we're moving them into a tiny little area in the south. And then we're taking control over their food. And once they come to food, we murder them for their own safety. Is it?

You know, they would have been a lot more safe if they just got to stay in their house. Oh, that's right, you destroyed 90% of Gaza because that's who you are. You're genociders, okay? So now I studied genocides for a number of different reasons. And I had a debate at UCLA with it on international law of genocide. And so the Israeli side lost so badly, even though they were actually theoretically international lawyers, and I'm not, that she just resorted to, oh, yeah, you're a parasite. I'm like, well, also something that people who are in favor of genocide do, dehumanize their opponents,

especially when they have absolutely no facts to back it up at all, which is the case here. So in those studies, I read about Serbanitsa. Serbanita is a genocide declared so by the United Nations and all international communities and organizations. In Serbenica, the Serbs killed 8,000 Muslims. So right now, the Israelis have killed a minimum of 54,000 Palestinians. Over 30,000 of which are women and children, okay? So what did they do in Serbanitsa? Eventually the Serbs realized, hey, you know what, these guys need food.

You know, you could lay siege to a town like in the old days. So they cut off their food until they were starving. And then they brought out food for them. And when they did, of course, the Muslims in that area rushed out to get the food because they were not, forget them, their kids were starving to death. And when they rushed to get the food, the Serbs murdered them. Oh look, that's exactly what just happened here, and in the flower massacre, and in several other cases where Israel goes, come here, come get the food.

And in this case, fired on by tanks, drones, 100% Israel that did it, and then go, oh, did we murder you while we were giving you aid? Right. Oh my God, beware of Israelis bearing gifts, okay? So, but the Palestinians don't have a choice either the kids are going to die of starvation, or they're going to risk going out there and die. By the way, of the people that were slaughtered here, as usual, mostly women and children. That's like an Israeli calling card, right?

So hey, don't oppose us, we'll murder your family. And they literally have a program called Where's Daddy, where the AI picks a random person in Gaza. And then when they, but they wait for them to get home. And then when they get home, they murder everyone in the family. And that's genocide 101. And apparently these days, Israel 101. If you don't like it, change. Until you change, Israel is committing one of the worst genocides of my lifetime.

Disgusting. Okay, so then one of our members on YouTube asked J-P-L-A 1886, how the heck does the IDF deny something? They're clearly on camera doing. They do it all the time. No, they do it every time. So now if they were, if we treated, the American press treated them like Baghdad Bob, who used to do the same thing. He was Saddam Hussein's spokesperson in Iraq when we were invading. And he would say there are no Americans behind us and there'd be an American tank behind him, okay? And so, but what did the press do? They ridiculed him. Ha, ha, ha, Baghdad, Bob. What a stupid liar, right? What does the American press do with the grotesque, ridiculous lies of the idea? The IDF reports this, it's 50-50. We can't tell it. It's the Hamas health ministry. Oh, I don't know if you can trust those numbers, but the beloved IDF, the most moral army in the world says that they didn't do it. Just magically, things popped up. Hamas, Hamas, and it's all Hamas's fault.

Right? And the dogs in American media go, yes, Israel's right, rub, rub, rub, Rob, Israel's right. Israel's right. Oh, Palestinians, who cares? Their lives are not important. 31 people killed. If 31 Israelis were killed, we'll talk about it for two years straight. And you all know it. You go, the worst attack that's ever happened, because it was Israeli lives, which are worth 100,000 Palestinian lives. I don't mind you considering Israeli lives that valuable. of course they are. They're human beings. But when you tell me that Palestinian lives are not that important and that Israel can slaughter them at will, and anyone who complains is an anti-Semite, yes, American media, you're guilty, you're guilty and you're deeply racist

against Palestinians. Because you don't think Palestinian lives matter at all. Oh, I'm sorry, go check with the IDF your boss as to what the talking point you're supposed to put out about this this new massacre, this new part of the genocide. Oh, I'm sorry, you wouldn't want to offend the IDF, you don't want to call it a genocide. Just pretty it up for them, you know, make it sound like it's not so bad. Make it 50-50, like the oil companies do with climate change and the tobacco companies did with cancer. 50-50, let's just confuse the Americans and what should we do next? Let me guess, send billions more to Israel to slaughter more Palestinians, but don't complain because Israeli feelings way more important than Palestinian lives.

Okay, I want to do this Massey and Miller part, so let me reset for that. Republican Representative Thomas Massey has been one of the few lawmakers to openly criticize Israel's influence on the American government. And just last week, he went further than honestly most Democrats are willing to go, writing nothing can justify the number of civilian casualties, tens of thousands of women and children, inflicted by Israel in Gaza. in the last two years, we should all, we should end all U.S. military aid to Israel now. So I want to hear, American hero. I just want to pause and comment on the fact that for the longest time, Thomas Massey has focused his disagreement with supporting Israel's war by saying that we are using our finite resources and sending it to a foreign country to carry out what they're

carrying out in Gaza. He was less willing to be as critical of how Israel, Israel is prosecuting this war as he is right now. And I commend him for that because it is true, tens of thousands, likely very, likely more. Civilians have been killed in Gaza and it is a moral issue that he's drawing attention to. But that did earn Massey a lot of criticism and he didn't back down. So one person wrote in response, you just told us you're not a Christian without saying it.

So for this person who accuses him of not being a Christian, what does Christianity? mean to this person exactly. Christianity requires you to slaughter innocent civilians in Gaza on behalf of a foreign country. You're supposed to support that with weapons, with American tax dollars. How does that make any sense? I mean, I literally went to Sunday school every Sunday from, I think, age 3 to age 19. I don't remember reading anything about that in the Bible. What kind of Christianity is this?

What kind of disgusting distortion of Christianity is that? Massey responded by saying, I disagree with your version of Christianity if it requires endorsing the deaths of women and children on behalf of any country. Now, another figure who spoke out against Israel's conduct in Gaza was former State Department spokesperson, if you can believe it. Matt Miller. Suddenly Matt Miller found his morality. Now, he served under the Biden administration, and there were no breaks on that car when it came to Israel. Okay, never any pressure to sign a cease deal, a ceasefire deal. was made abundantly clear by the Israeli ambassador to the United States who said, we never felt any pressure from Biden to engage in a ceasefire deal.

Now with that in mind, if you've been watching the show for a while, you probably remember that we've played many clips of Miller essentially downplaying Israel's war crimes. And now he's changed his tune, I wonder what happened. Here's what he said. I think what is most certainly not an open question is that there have been individual incidents that have been war crimes where Israeli soldiers, members of the Israeli military, have committed war crimes. Even that statement, by the way, is just minimizing the fact that the Israeli government has been ordering all of these terrible atrocities that have been carried out in Gaza.

Okay, acting as if it's like, oh, there's just a few bad apples in the IDF, please. We've all heard the statements from Smotrich, Ben Gavir, Netanyahu himself. He continues. The thing that I look back on is that is in that intervening period between the end of May and the middle of January 2025, when thousands of Palestinians, innocent civilians were killed, was there more that we could have done to pressure the Israeli government to agree to that ceasefire? I think at times there probably was. No, not probably, Matt, not probably, definitely, definitely. And he has as much blood on his hands as other Biden administration officials who allowed this to keep going on into the Trump administration.

Okay, they're just as liable for the slaughters that have happened in the Gaza Strip as the current government in the United States is. Yeah, so Biden barely functioned. So it was guys like Matt Miller and Jake Sullivan and Anthony Blinken who made the decisions. So who are you kidding, Matt? Now after you don't, you're out of power. Oh, Israel committed some war crimes. I'm innocent. I called it out after I left power. No, you're 100% guilty.

You didn't call out anything. Few bad apples. The whole, the idea of lies every single time. And who was their top spokesperson in America? You were, Matt. You were. You would come out and parrot their obvious lies that you knew were lies. And you would do it on purpose.

And you would do it to continue the genocide. You thought, well, the money's poor. pouring in from AIPAC, it's number one donor for Joe Biden throughout his career. Five million dollars to Kamala Harris. I know Matt, oh, I didn't know about the donors. In Washington, we don't know anything about donors. A PAC was the number one donor in this election cycle to members of Congress. Well, Maddie Miller wouldn't know that.

He was too busy controlling Biden and telling him, go pro genocide, more killing, more killing, send him more money, send him more money. Hey Matt, when you're sending them $20 billion for the genocide, did you know then? Oh, yeah, oh, I'm not guilty afterwards. No, you're definitely guilty, okay? So, and by the way, people like him and Blinking are going to want to go back into the government. Next time there's a Democrat. No, no, no, no, we learned our lessons.

We're fine, we're fine. Israel, don't worry, we got your back. We're sending 20 billion. You want to do a new genocide, a new anything. We'll do it for you. Oh, please, Matt, shut up. At least have the decency to shut up after you got all that blood all over your hands. And you didn't do a goddamn thing about it.

Okay, so Marjorie Taylor Green also came on this show and said, we should stop funding Israel. Okay, so there's a Maga Rebellion. Look, for the folks on the- There's a difference though, Jank. There is a difference. So look, talk is cheap. And so if Marjorie Taylor Green is actually willing to put her words into action by voting against a budget or against additional funding to Israel, Okay, great. I haven't seen it yet. And that's different when it comes to Thomas Massey.

Thomas Massey has actually put action into his words. Yeah, so I'm gonna tell you because you could watch it yourself and you should watch it on our YouTube channel. Okay. So Marjorie Taylor Green at least did this. So they proposed a bill that if you advocate for the boycott of Israel, that the American government would punish you. Because how dare you defy a foreign government? And it was Maga that led a revolt against that. And yes, it was Marjorie Taylor Green who did it. Okay, so I disagree with her on over 90% of policies. But if you can't see that that's a win, what's, did we want that bill where you're,

like if you called for a boycott of Israel, the American government would crack down on you, no, we didn't want that bill. So guys, there is an actual rebellion. Now the only question is, how far is it going to go? is it going to go? And if they lose Trump, are they actually going to actively say, no, Trump is wrong. And we should not go to war with Iran, and we should not do what Israel wants. And Anna, you're right, there's a second distinction between Massey and Marjorie Taylor Green. Marjorie Taylor Green basically says, again, you can watch the interview. But overall,

she doesn't put a lot of thought or concern about the Palestinian people, okay? She just says, I don't want to send any more money. I'm sick of it. And I, so I'm done with it, right? Which I'll take. But Massey went further and said, how many tens of thousands of women and children do you need to kill? No, I'm against the killing and I'm against sending money. Thank you, Tom Massey. Oh, Tom Massey's one of the most conservative Republicans.

Oh, you, you are a traitor. You supported Thomas Massey for doing the right thing. He's a Republican, so you should encourage him to do the wrong. What? No, yeah, if he does the right thing, I give him. him credit, because I care about truth, I care about policy, I care about results. I hope there's a hundred Tom Massey's out there who says, no, enough, God, I don't care if you're a Democrat or Republican, enough, enough spending our money.

They take it out of our checks every single time you got a check. They took a piece out of that to send to Israel to kill more Palestinian women and children. Thomas Massey is 100% right about this, and yes, Marjorie Taylor Green is right. right about this and the funding, don't let Israel control America. And if you think Israel's not controlling America and it's like it's such a huge deal that two Republicans turned on Israel and saying we shouldn't give them funding, why is that such a big deal? They say that about every other country, literally every other country. But it's a giant deal that we have a couple of Republicans who are like,

will also include Israel and be principled. What? How could you? Don't you know that you all should work for Israel? Okay, so they've declared independence on that and I respect it. All right, when we come back from the break, we'll talk about what just happened in Russia with Ukraine attacking deep within the country. That and more coming up, don't miss it. You know, B. Bhop.

Bhop. Thank you.
