a very dangerous fuss about this is a rush. it has been trying to take out the landing strips of ukrainian military airports, basically. that's what re fits it to. so ukraine was re fixing its uh, military facilities. its uh uh, it's airports so that they are able to launch these f sixteens uh into, into, into the. yeah. because ukraine previously it had no such infrastructure as it was in the process of re purposing and uh, just re refurbishing uh, the infrastructure. russia has been targeting these airports and so just so to, to prevent ukraine from using it. and if it, of course, we'll see how successful russia was doing so. but if it was, then ukraine might have no other option, but to fly on to launch these f sixteens from the facilities that abroad and say in poland, for example. and russia has been very clear what comes next,

if you crane decides to do so. the comments already being heard that the conditions of significant destruction of the grains feel to infrastructure, the transfer of 16 tactical fight to solve the armed forces of ukraine can carry out sol teeth from a basis in poland. romania as the locked here. we found the use of those fights is from the territory of the months of may to member states will be viewed by most coast, the involvement and the conflicts in ukraine, and will force ross so to take retaliate to re masses. so again, ukraine hasn't had much time to refurbish and to prepare it's fields for the f sixteens. russia has been hampering those efforts to extensively and russia had the means to do so with the ukrainian, the defensive, depleted and not living up to the expectations. so again, it's a very, very concerning developments. and uh, well, one can only hope that this does not escalates into

a direct confrontation between russia, nato, and the united states by proxy, which could lead to, well, a nuclear confrontation. so depending on size, ukraine is about to get those ethics pains, but belgium has just analysis delaying sending those jets to ukraine. a brussel set out here, the f sixteens would arrive in ukraine by the summer. now it's saying company by the end of the year, possibly 2025 to beginning, which signals of dependent on a sudden data man is a the the

hello and welcome to cross stock. were all things are considered non theater, lebeau, among the casualties as a result of israel's genocidal assault on causes included suspension of international humanitarian law. but also free speech across the western world. for bursley being pro palestinian and pro peace is condemned as and i submitted the prospecting palestine. i'm joined by my guess, lionel in new york. he's a legal in media analyst in berkeley. we actually but so what i see is the director of the institute of middle eastern is la mac and strategic studies. and in rome, we crossed to romano roberto. she is an author and the managing editor of the palestine chronicle. alright, cross lock rules and effect. that means you can jump any time you want. and i always appreciated. um, theresa, if i can go to you 1st thing in berkeley,

it seems like astoundingly there. there is a pogroms going on all across american academia. people are triggered, people are fearful, the police are being called in. what in the world is going on here? i read it and looking at the image is that people are, are protesting against genocide and wanting piece. i mean, i don't think that's such a radical idea to protest about, but that's just me go ahead. this is not a radical idea to protest about this movement has been growing every day as the results of the interference by politicians. and by i believe in organized movement against pulse time that's been operating for some time, even before the 7th of october, and according to that moves. now, you know, people cannot say palestine,

they cannot say into plaza. they cannot say from the river to the sea. different states have lunches, flimsier gloss, allowing businesses to fire employees who are caught speaking out on palestine. so i think this is part of something larger, and the student movement is acting on uh, you know, it is triggered by what is happening to so. so here in berkeley, we had a dean of the law school who had a student wearing his job, who stood up to speak at a dinner. he invited all the law students to and shouldn't even get to speak before he asked her to leave and said it was his apples. and this was written up in the nation. you know and, and know we have an account now and on the students are,

are very galvanized. the problem i think is that the general public has been reading this media spend for some time the a pro talestine, tomas or terrorist. therefore protel steiner terrorist and yeah, but i mean a for lean line or it is, but this is criminalizing speech, isn't it? i mean, it's really quite extraordinary. i mean, speaking facts, i mean, we can, i don't want to waste time on this program, but we could quote, is really officials about what's going on. and guys, it's all part of the public record. okay. i mean, repeating what they have the site is being criminalized to go ahead while i always say, i remember i told stories line that history would be a wonderful thing of only it were true. well peter, let's go back through memory lane. we always do this. 1970 kent state,

the national guard, the song ohio crosby stills in the 1968 in columbia university. they took over the president of the office, a debate or on protesting against columbia is involved with military official. okay . the same people, the same people who remember that house in days i'm smoking dope and protesting the same day on the same place. we're talking about bringing in the national guard and i'm saying, can't state you know what somebody told me? that said, no, this is colombia said now and stayed. they've forgotten what i thought was in boys and did my collector memory. peter, we, we just wasn't that long ago. and 11 more thing,

what people are seeing sometimes these events that have happened to columbia, others have said, this isn't even on campus. yeah. because some of the events. so this is an absolute dial follicle targeted misinformation. this information, distortion, product, and i, well, i can't the line or what it is. you know, i'm glad you brought up the 196 these, cuz i remember watching it very young on television. they were against war. that's what we're seeing now as people are against war in genocide and it's nothing to do with anti semitism whatsoever. let me go to ramana in room. you know, it's really quite a sounding. do i see all of these news reports here, but children in gaza are still being killed. families entire families are being decimated. i'm, i'm sorry, maybe a few students in america. i'll get, i'll get triggered. but i mean, are we missing the bigger picture here?

go ahead ramada, of course we are and you know, we are missing the big picture because intentionally the big picture has to be sidelined. of course, what is happening in gaza is you know, attendance how you doing work and we'll support dot ease indigo. and that should be punished and people should be held accountable for that. but nobody, a sanctioning doc, nobody's forwarding is what accountable for, it's clear, war crimes and crimes against humanity. but you know, people who are protesting are now becoming there is a witch hunt against them. and there was a witch hunt in the united states. there was a witch hunt here in europe. and of course, the justification of the anti semitism is used as usual as, as monks queen because no, nobody wants to talk about the crimes, the minister of the patient, the author's tied to racism. and ultimately now the genocide that unfortunately

we're seeing a foraging in gaza. so this is used as a smoke skin as most screen. and it's incredible, but may do is intellectuals are actually, you know, protesting this. they are saying that this is actually against the. ringback safety of, you know, of jewish people and i think it's true of any kind of wrote recently an article for the harvard crimson saying that, you know, this method district tactics shouldn't be used at all. but unfortunately they are, and the fees and or strategy and, or is kind of latasha to ease and sign if people have phone with used to cover up their crime. yes. but, you know, if i go back to our guest in berkeley, i mean, this is, we all should not be surprised here when we've been told all of us, you know, we have a younger folks older folks like mine on myself here. but you know, they're, they quoting zine isn't with israel with jews. and this is the problem that we have here because they are there. this is a false pairing of these uh,

of different topics here. and so if you're a design is and people are saying stop the genocide and zine is in the problem. of course they're not going to like it, but it has nothing to do with anti semitism. i refuse to let them do that to me in the discourse. go ahead and berkeley there are of course, many jewish students in the movement against genocide. and that is a very difficult situation for those who want to cancel free speech on palestine and prove the on calling for a ceasefire in gaza. and i think that those students at columbia have issued a several important statements clarifying their position and, you know, trying to ask not to be kidnapped into this,

this course about and so much to them which is essentially irrelevant here. yes. so um, but yeah, that's where the mainstream media it has been going. if you read every story the, the in jack to paragraph or 2 about mpeg semitism and yeah, but also with the media. you, one of the things that media line away, i'm sure you've come across. i did. the passive voice is used all the time. people were killed, people were bombed, buildings were destroyed. where's the predicate, who's doing what to whom? and of course, and we've all pointed out here, don't mention occupation. i mean, there's so many words that are for bit right now. i mean, these people are antithetical to what all of us were brought up in as a free society to speak. what you think go headlines. another history i, i'm in new york, i'm on the west side and during the, our own b, l. m. uh,

george floyd, during the riot and the, the, these very same media fault for say, listen, protest is unfortunately, supp protesters uncomfortable. this is what buildings were on fire. they were plywood everywhere. people hide from see it and because i mentioned their names, this is the way it goes. do you know what fascinates these very same people today as to the protest in columbia? who's buying their tents? they're eating sushi, it's. there's marginalization of these people as crazy. who are the oh, the lead be, i'm the daughter of the congressman of this. what she how, how dare she? who are these people? breeding drums. we did the same thing during occupied wall street. and i asked people, i said, do you remember doing great moments of protests, martin luther king's, i have

a dream. i'm sure traffic was backed up. they might have littered, i'm sure, during an admin pettis bridge and you civil rights moment. i'm sure these these moments now we're looking at decorum and drumbeat and, and the way they look for people. let me just finish with who are sworn by virtue of their media status to understand and appreciate it. the 1st amendment, they don't understand when it comes to join the song, they don't, they, they just, they, they're aparadh checks their proxies for a government. they actually enable and in noble if you will, a, the crack down to free speech. it's on be livable. yeah. but line, or at the same time is this is all going on. the congress voted for another down payment on genocide. i mean, it's really hiding subordinate, the, the, the people that are experiencing genocide are not even part of the discourse. this is extraordinary. and it's a 3rd, at this point, i'm going to jump in,

we're going to go to a short break. and after that short break, we'll continue our discussion of houseman and state with our to the and the world's largest democracy votes. the rest of the planet watchers in an emerging multi polar world. india's voice matters, but who will be the power behind it? watches almost 1000000000 people decide and billions, react the

the welcome back across software. all things are considered. i'm peter in the mail to remind you were discussing palestine. the ok, let's go back to our guest in room and i'm going to quote to benjamin netanyahu. the israeli prime minister. this is what he said to him is the last new cycle. what's happening in america's colleges, campuses is horrific. anti semitic mobs have taken over the leading universities of all people to be quoting and american media. when they, when we look at that, how much, how many journalists that have been killed in gaza and palestinians, and non palestinians and, and it, that's given so much more air time. but they're only a snippet. and that's why they're getting rid of tech talk because people actually can see the truth. ok. the main stream media just want the waters down completely,

like i said, using passive speech where you don't really understand who's doing what to whom. so, i mean, this is what the western media prefers is to allow out and outside or meddling and american domestic politics go heading room. yes, mainstream media is trying to serve, you know, the agenda of power as usual. it's their job. absolutely, and you know, they're highlighting things that shouldn't be highlight, highlighted at all at nissan. how at this moment is also worried about the possible arrest warrant and that should have come, you know, so this one on a go at if we want to, to see this. but i think here what we are experiencing got, i have exposed, many lies, have exposed many contradictions. what you're seeing here is that, you know, it's even more than a crisis of representation. we are seeing that liberal democracies are, you know, lying so openly, that is even difficult to justify,

at the lies at all at let's think about the fact that 1st of all, it is not a democracy. if i can only speak if i am basically speaking the language of the system and of the power, it's not a democracy, but you will not even speaking about the right of the minority to speak out. we're speaking about the right of the majority because every poll in the united states and in europe is actually saying that the majority of people, once a heart a ceasefire in gaza. and once a has to at ease where you work crimes in gaza and but we are see petitions, you know, basically a trying to impose something on the majority of the people. and these, these carry like these should concern everybody, not the only people who are now currently sticking out for college and for posting and right, or are protesting does wonderful students who are protesting and campuses all over

toward the united states and over to what it should concern every body. yeah. and particularly if you look at western universities, these are the most privileged people of that society. okay. you know, let's go back to our guest in berkeley. i know a lot of people the don't really understand that. um, i actually prefer a culture and i, and, and social movements and in philosophy, not necessarily politics. and what i see happening here is the entire enlightenment project being extinguished and, and in the lighting and project of liberalism that the west exported all around the world. sometimes, and very often using force, they are bad doing it themselves. remarkably, it is the global south, it says, no, no, no, no, we kind of like some of those ideas about freedom of speech and assembly, you know, all, but we kind of liked that. it's hard, it's because of the imperial colonial experience, but we're making our progress. the west has a jet a 2nd away completely. go ahead and berkeley. well, this is the thing,

people that have been told, and the general public in the united states has a rather different than our student population. and it's rather different than our student population who happened to be tell us the indian or era, or a most one or jewish, who may have inform themselves more on this conflict. so, you know, people will say, well, well i can see a chain pell's done through peaceful means. have they not tried? have they not used every single apparatus that they can? has there not been a process in the international court of justice? was there not a un ruling for a ceasefire? and then i'll tell people about the movement to, you know, go to go to the board direct cause of the various movements to overcome the

blockade. they haven't even read about it. yeah. they, they don't, they don't know that and on. so i think, you know, the, the action of the students, not just the students, but uh, uh, so a little while ago the floors though, the blocking of the bay bridge here and the golden gate bridge. and this is being met with criminal charges of a and for some for kidnapping that the extent the woods for the car. but what's, what's extraordinary? okay. someone is blocking a bridge. okay. sorry. you're going to be a little late for work, but they're not charging the people that are committed. genocide, i mean, the, the, the iron need of the whole business extorted, lionel, is it all about money? you know, it's a donors, i mean, look at, we look at these ivy league schools. we have big donor se, if you don't fire this person,

you don't rest of the students that will have actually paid money to go there and lived there. is it all about that? is that where it gets to the very top? is it money? does it money talks or yes, and you know, what else walks, what i can't believe are the number of, of a college professor, a president who you think would be in to drills? because we have a congress person, the least of phonic, who will bring you in and say, what have you done? what have you done to, to of, to, to stop hate. and i would immediately, i wish somebody would say here, here's a list, tell me, what should i do here? you want to run the card that my cap is here. tell me what words i can say. here's the best part i'm living. i told you in a fish bowl last week on the saturday when we can get, we don't even know where congress is. i saw american congress, people waving ukrainian flags singing you, craig, you, craig,

not america. at the same time, there was, you mentioned the israel legislation then guarding our surveillance laws. meanwhile, i'm turning to friends of mine, supposedly conservative, supposedly lubbers of the constitution of liberty sitting back and doing nothing. and i ask these people as a, do you think this all began on october, the 7th? and 11 final word, they ask this one politician. what do you think about the house on the 1000 you situation? he says, released the hostages and all are well. somebody gave him these, these add these tried answers to say this, that doesn't even these politicians are like mine, a birds their, their sac puppets. they're told say this and you will be fine. yeah. but they're cowards. they're all cowards. and they're also being paid. ok. that's their hot, and that's what when it gets to their value system, that is at the very top your,

let's go back to room. remember, one of the things that i find really interesting, and i think it is something we need to think about for a long time moving forward. is this the ultimate expression of what zionism is all about? because with this project here, it is intensely races. it's intensely violent and it works with impunity. and what it does is it corrupts everything around it. look at the u. s. congress. look at the british parliament. they've corrupted them. they've corrupted the media, they've corrupted everything. go ahead. it. absolutely it is. you know, the very, very essence of design, any project was finalize and switching to this moment. but now the vanish project also feels correct. and because we have the paradigm shift in toward dynamics, you know, in the word balance. and this is so scary for them. and disclose the so scary for the empire in a sense. this is why i think the west is so can,

on cracking down on these protests because there is a shift in the power dynamics and even in the ethnic composition, the students who are protesting. many of them are, you know, the outcome of what happened of these, and i'm a full, big environmental to, to look into us after 911. and now they, they read fight. today i read the banner or one of the students say the i me to start decide, and now you want us to forget what we did study. so there are new priorities, i think even in academia, and it's going to be so difficult for them this time around a to escape from the paradigm shift that is blue ball. and it's a movement that is, you know, very grassroots movement that he's talking to seek, basically they're, they're the face of, you know, of power and their own system. i knew it would take time,

but i really can see that there is a way out of this, you know, re fixed at the route to steps stink zionism so far and basically avoid it too. who did that accountable for all of its crimes throughout the years? if we go back tomorrow, just in berkeley here, you know something that online or i'm, thankfully, it's been joining me on a weekly basis for half a year talking about this here. does the, the clinton of calling someone and type submitted it, does it have the same sting? is it used to have? because if you say it's so often over and over again, the nothings anti semitic to i seems the problem is this tactic has gone deep into our society. it's in the department of defense which has $10000.00 employees. if anyone accuse us you of them, i symmetric speech, so i work for them. and as you may know, they have a public affairs office which calls you up to me. so as we'd like you to be on this program, here's the points we'd like you to cover. you're allowed to say, oh,

respectfully disagree. i'm going to talk about apps. and then as soon as you finish, they call up your boss. so she was hand has submitted, she was supporting terrorist and then okay, the state department very much the same. so it isn't. and it isn't just the overt calls for, let's say cease fire. and so, i mean, as i hope that people can see how, how organized this is and that it will take organization to, to break. and there is our, our speaker in rome alluded to this. i mean, shamika recognize the state of palestine just recently and joins the list of many countries around the world to recognize palestine. but

united states does sense. right. and on, i, i, i agree with her. i saw i was rapidly running out of time here, just wanted to make a closing comment to amanda and i were speaking with for the show that there were people saying that, you know, this is resembles the 19 thirty's in europe. yeah. does authoritarianism is on the march? that's the comparison. you need to make. it's all the time we have or anything my guess in new york, berkeley ending room. and of course, i want to thank our viewers for watching us here in our dc a next time and remember prospect goals. the take a fresh look around. there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just

a shifted reality distortion by tell us to do vision with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills, and is it just as a chosen for you? fractured images presented is 1st. can you see through their illusion going underground? can the united states dried out of the sanctions on russia? that's the best thing the this could have happened to russia because the sanctions on russia, against agriculture, against the other items, or made russia fetus produce that song. so as on agriculture and now, so the major growth export are no longer dependence on the united states and europe, [000:00:00;00]

the authority impose sanctions on more than a 100 chinese entities, export controls, etc. and we are fully prepared to to act take additional measures. yeah. black mailing in beijing, us secretary of state, struck named china over at the support of russia. thing is it continues uncle sam's functions already to strike nestle faces, criticism for pushing shut up. patrick, baby, full of meadows and developing nations offering healthy aversion is for western boxes. all the green, the fields sold by and this needs to be sent on are without, with any added sugar. while in low when needed and conventions, you find 2 brands on average and the products to clear those down the sugar here no
