Time Text
And welcome back, folks, to the Eclipsing Show, Truth vs. News.
And boy, we really are having a pleasure.
Looks like there's an awful lot of bad going on, and we're here to give you the truth about what's really happening.
And, Jim, I guess we got a good overview of what's going on back there in Israel and the places that you want to share with us.
Well, yes, this is quite good.
Let's check it out.
In 2021, the commander of Israeli intelligence published a book on designing a special machine that would resolve what he described as a human bottleneck for locating and approving targets in...
A recent investigation by Plus 972 Magazine and Local Call reveals that the Israeli Army has developed an artificial intelligence-based program known as Lavender, which does exactly that.
According to six Israeli intelligence officers with first-hand experience, the Lavender AI machine determined who to kill and was obeyed with military discipline.
During the first weeks of the war, the Lavender System designated about 37,000 Palestinians as targets and directed airstrikes on their homes.
Despite knowing that the system makes errors about 10% of the time, there was no requirement to check the machine's data.
The Israeli Army systematically attacked the targeted individuals at night in their homes while their whole family was present.
An automated system known as Where's Daddy was used to track the targeted individuals and carry out When they entered their families' residences.
The obvious result was that thousands of women and children were wiped out by Israeli airstrikes.
According to these Israeli intelligence officers, the IDF... them in homes as a first option.
And on several occasions, entire families were... when the actual target was not inside.
In one instance, four buildings were destroyed, along with everyone inside, because a single target was in one of them.
When it came to targets marked as low-level by the AI Lavender System, cheaper bombs were used, which destroyed entire buildings.
civilians and entire families.
This was done because the IDF did not want to waste expensive bombs on who they deemed as unimportant people.
It was decided that for every low-level Hamas operative that Lavender marked, it was permissible to kill up to 15 or 20 civilians.
And if the target was a senior Hamas official, more than a hundred civilians was acceptable.
Most of these AI targets were never tracked before the war.
The lavender software analyzed information collected on the 2.3 million residents of the Gaza Strip through a system of mass surveillance, assessed the likelihood of each person being a militant, and gave a rating from 1 to 100.
If the rating was high enough, then they were along with their entire family.
Lavender flagged individuals who had patterns similar to Hamas, including police, civil defense, relatives, and residents who had similar names and nicknames.
This sort of tracking system has existed in the U.S. for years.
What I will be providing you and the fine gentleman of the Secret Service is a list of every threat made about the president since February 3rd and a profile of every threat.
said that Israel serves U.S.
interests.
There's no apology to be made!
None!
It is the best $3 billion investment we make.
Were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.
The United States would have to go out and invent an Israel.
We're learning new details today about the seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen who were killed by Israel's military in Gaza.
All seven victims have now been identified, including an American.
The airstrikes destroyed the victims' cars on Monday in what Israel claims was a case of mistaken identity.
This is a direct provocation designed to precipitate a major response from Iran.
If Iran cannot be dragged into this war, Then it is very unlikely that Mr. Netanyahu will be able to drag us into his war on his side.
So, simply put, why would you attack the sovereign territory, which is what a consulate or embassy is, as you know, of Iran?
You want Iran to attack you so that you can precipitate a war that will involve the United States against Iran on your side.
If the mullahs do nothing, if they exercise Putin-like restraint, what do you expect Netanyahu to do?
Ratchet up the attacks on Iran to do everything he can to goad them?
Yes, I would think so.
I mean, there's no alternative for him.
He knows that he's got to attack Hezbollah and that's a foregone conclusion.
It's just a question of when.
So, he's got to drag in Iran into this mess as he sees it.
Now, what he's not paying attention to is the coalescing of the rest of the region against him.
He's not paying much attention to what's going on up in Turkey, for instance.
The Turkish population is enraged at Israel.
And the Turkish population just rejected Erdogan at the polls.
There were several reasons for that, but one of them was Erdogan's continuous provision of oil and food and other things to the Israelis, despite all of his tough talk.
And the Turks really want to go after the Israelis.
They want action against them.
And the Arabs are looking at the Turks as their leaders because they are the one Sunni Muslim power with real military capability that could defeat Israel.
Because they know that the neighbors cannot.
If Iran attacks Israel, if Iran engages in a war for Israel that's not a pinprick tit-for-tat, but a serious war, wouldn't you expect Russia to come to Iran's side?
And wouldn't this effectively, thank you Prime Minister Netanyahu, commence a regional war, almost World War III?
Well, I think that's true.
I've been saying that for a long time and people don't seem to understand or grasp it.
You have the failed war that Washington's been waging in Ukraine.
Ukraine is destroyed, and we continue to provoke Russia at every opportunity.
I think they're talking about stealing $300 billion Russian funds and turning this over to the Ukrainians.
The fools on the Hill want to do this.
This kind of behavior makes it inevitable that if we become involved in a conflict with Iran, that the Russians will come to the aid of Iran.
There's no question about it.
They've deployed forces down into the Red Sea, their submarines are already in the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea, and they have forces in the Mediterranean.
So it's a foregone conclusion that if Mr. Netanyahu is successful and we are dragged into this, we will end up fighting with the Russians directly.
Talk to me about the rage that you mentioned a few minutes ago, Colonel.
Is it of such a magnitude that leaders in the area, Turkey, Iran, Jordan, may feel pressured into doing something lest something happen against their will?
Oh, absolutely.
This is already true in Egypt and Jordan.
And I would argue Saudi Arabia, the Emirates are all under pressure.
The elites in the region are under tremendous pressure.
And if they don't act, they all stand an excellent chance of going away.
General Sisi has tried, as many others, to be on both sides of the fence.
On the one hand, he's tried to speak out against what the Israelis are doing.
But he's had to renegotiate his enormous national sovereign debt.
He's needed our support for that.
He wants to keep the United States on side.
How much longer that goes on is hard to tell, because the Russians and the Chinese may well step in and offer to help him, which would then grant him some freedom of maneuver vis-a-vis Israel.
Then you have the Jordanians, and the Jordanian king is hanging on, I think, by his fingernails.
He's a very competent man.
He's a brilliant leader.
He has negotiated the troubled waters of the region with great alacrity.
I don't think he wants in any way, shape, or form to be at war with Israel, but he has over a million, you know, enraged Palestinians who want to attack Israel.
And I don't think he's going to have much, much longer to stave it off.
I think he's in a very, very sensitive position.
Everybody.
Scott, your thoughts about McGregor's assessment?
Yeah.
Well, in the interest of time, I think I'll play that video as a bonus.
So Don can play it later.
But in response to what he's saying, you know, I think the Palestinian retribution, vengeance against the Israelis is coming very soon.
When you, they had some talks about, you know, kids 5 to 10 years old who've had their entire families killed by Israel, how are they going to grow up and what are they going to do to Israel as a result?
I think that's very telling, especially when you multiply that by how many?
30,000 plus and many others.
The Lavender Program is another topic.
I just did an article on Sputnik and What they say Lavender is in this whole psychographic analysis of personalities for targeting, that's a cover.
What Lavender really is, is a diagonal vacuum cleaner program that simply identifies real estate and annihilates them.
They've given it this elaborate human terrain mapping component to scare people into thinking they can do that, they can do worse.
It's a very simple program that they've implemented for targeting and destroying city blocks because their entire agenda has been real estate demolition.
That's essentially all they've been planning for for decades is real estate demolition.
And they've had to overlay it with this Gaza October 7th war against terrorism, but it's all been fraudulent.
So war against terrorism and the targeting of terrorists based on their behavior programs and behavioral models, all of that is
Part of a ruse, because the real program nature is a diagonal real estate destruction, one block, one building at a time, based on the newness of the building, which predicts the degree of population living inside and the psychographic education and high-level quality of the people living inside, with regards to their political membership.
So, you know, everything that's coming about now, I'd end it by saying this, Russia doesn't have just vessels in the Indian Ocean, in the Mediterranean, they have vessels in the Persian Gulf.
China has vessels in the Persian Gulf.
Israel does not.
Uh, and, uh, Israel will not.
Their dolphin class submarines don't have the capability.
Iran, Russia, and China are castling their pieces on the chessboard, and they will not tolerate any breaches or fissures that the U.S. tries to plant and then exploit.
They will annihilate those probes and take it to higher levels.
They will escalate beyond a realm that America has the capability to bet against.
They will raise the stakes of the pot, if you will, to a level that the United States can't pay for or do, because our cards are blank and we have nothing in the bank.
We're full of nothing but monopoly money.
Jim?
Brian?
So, all the artificial intelligence in the world couldn't predict the October 7th situation?
You know, Israel's also got a bunch of drones called the Israel's Jaguar system that are unmanned ground vehicles equipped with guns that are patrolling the Gaza border.
They're taken out.
Civilian casualty rate of 100 people to each one Hamas they only claimed in the 972 article that there was 17,000 militants that were being targeted.
So Scott's absolutely right.
It's a demolition project primarily and who cares if human beings are actually involved in this the amount of suffering that's that that is coming along here is Well, it it's genocide I don't know how else to find another word that says what it actually is than to just use, theoretically, the most egregious word there possibly could be about this situation.
Taking out women and children and the families because, oh, they're sleeping in the same building with some guy who supposedly has been targeted by artificial intelligence because of his social media connections.
It's absolute insanity, and I can see now why Israel is having a hard time and Netanyahu's having a hard time.
The whole world is looking upon this and saying this is pure insanity, and this is the type of war that's being fought.
Obviously, everybody in the audience knows about the movie The Terminator, and they know about the big wars, and they've all seen The Matrix, which is the sequel to The Terminator.
Very much so, in a sense, in the way it was written.
Terminator was early stage Matrix.
Matrix was late stage.
Hey, we still need some people around.
We got to hold on to their bodies, their brains.
So, you know, what I think is the worst, the most diabolical component of all of this madness Is that it was launched with such an obvious false flag attack on October 7th and the world's media has absolutely ignored that false flag as to why they chose to run this demolition operation.
Getting all the hospitals, cutting down all the food, all the electrical supplies, all the water for these people.
It's just absolutely diabolical and genocidal.
It wouldn't surprise me if Iran wipes these people off the map when the time comes and I hope they do.
And we will not shed a tear.
Meanwhile, this is World Central Kitchen demands an independent probe after Israel kills aid workers.
This was pretty grotesque.
World Central Kitchen, international aid group known for providing food to areas ravaged by natural and man-made disasters, has called for an independent investigation into Israel's airstrikes on its workers, killing seven.
WCK wrote they've asked the governments of Australia, Canada, the U.S., Poland, and the U.K.
to join in demanding an independent third-party investigation, including whether they were carried out intentionally or otherwise violated international law, to which the answer is obvious, they were.
It was a military attack involving multiple strikes, targeting three vehicles, carrying civilians marked as WCK.
Their movements were in full compliance with Israeli authorities who are aware of their itinerary, route, and humanitarian mission.
An independent investigation is the only way to determine the truth, except, I dare say, it's bloody obvious.
Israeli PM Netanyahu confirmed IDF forces were responsible for the death, claiming our forces unintentionally hit innocent people in the Gaza Strip, as happens in war, in promising an investigation.
International humanitarian group's UN officials at the Agency for International Development have warned Gaza is facing imminent famine conditions.
Wednesday, WCK founder, world-renowned chef Jose Andres published an op-ed calling the killing the direct result of a policy that squeezed humanitarian aid to desperate levels.
You cannot save the hostages by bombing every building in Gaza.
You cannot win this war by starving an entire population.
Unless, of course, that is your objective.
President Biden said he was outraged and heartbroken over the death of the aid workers.
For many, the statement rang hollow, considering that the administration has approved the sale of 1,000 more bombs to Israel on the very day the workers were killed.
Meanwhile, Daily polls show Israelis continue to support the war, despite mass protests calling for a hostage deal and new elections.
Israelis, still seemingly without opposition, support the war in Gaza, even if it means sending their children to kill or be killed.
Most Israelis know Netanyahu is lying to them.
Most expect his policies are motivated by personal and family interests.
Otherwise, the Poles would not predict just 18 Knesset seats for Lukid under his leadership.
And yet, most Israelis support him.
Yes, in contrast to what Poles and pundits are telling us.
That's because the most reliable poll is the continued participation of thousands in the onslaught involving mass killing and rapid destruction in Gaza and the oppression and expulsion operations taking place in the West Bank.
The unshakeable willingness of parents to send their children to kill and be killed, to wound and be wounded, then to suffer all their lives from post-trauma is a constant, unchanging response in a poll conducted daily.
The whitewash language and the consensus of the media, along with cleaving to the belief war is the solution, is a kind of answer to a question asked between the lines.
Who do they support?
TikTok photos posted by soldiers indicating the unwillingness or inability of the IDF to halt the flow of selfies from Gaza show a smug bestiality devoid of any inhibitions as soldiers and constitutes one kind of poll.
Parents who don't express shock or concern that their children with their own smart forms are providing the international criminal courts with incriminating evidence against themselves are also poll responders who embrace Netanyahu and his military policy, even if they aren't asked about it and even if they don't vote for him.
Reservists rushing between the Capitol Street demonstrators and the ruins of Gaza or its skies, peppered with bombers and predatory drones, are also respondents to a poll whose answer is unambiguous.
The continuous whining that the world is anti-Semitic is a desired response to a poll that leaves Netanyahu drooling every morning.
So is the refusal to understand that.
In contrast to our TV screens, which remain focused on the horrors of October 7th and heartbreaking reports about its victims, you and Zafar TV have the horrors of bombing and deliberate starvation in the Gaza Strip over the past six months.
They are familiar with hundreds, if not thousands, of heartbreaking reports about Palestinian victims.
Many Israelis know the government led by Netanyahu is consciously allowing tormented hostages to die of hunger, lack of medication, exhaustion, and abuse from Israeli airstrikes.
Apparently, more Israelis than ever before support this undeclared Hannibal Directive, which allows the military to endanger the life of a soldier to prevent him from being abducted.
All for the sake of absolute victory.
Many Israelis know the Hasidim, their families, and their terrible suffering do not interest this government.
They were shocked by politicians' public statements of derision and lack of sympathy.
Most Israelis know cabinet members are inept clowns in the best case, wily politicians looking after their own sectors in the worst.
Many Israelis know the Minister of Finance and Settlements is destroying their economy.
They know the war is destroying it.
That the Minister of Police is giving instructions to silent protesters while destroying the police.
That the Minister of Education is destroying education.
And the Minister of Communication opposes the freedom of the press.
They know the Minister of Defense isn't bringing security.
The state is on the ropes.
They know.
And they know that the erroneous conception formulated by the Prime Minister, in collaboration with intelligence and security agencies, according to which Hamas in Gaza was contained, behaving as they wanted it to behave, is the reason for the great calamity that struck the more than 1,400 dead and abducted people, their families and their communities.
And yet, Israelis continue to support the government.
By the very fact they report for work the accepted euphemism for the invasion and killing in Gaza.
Loyally fulfilling the mission of dispossession carried out by the Israeli settlement defending forces in the West Bank by the very fact that the Israeli Medical Association is not expressing its shock at reports of starvation in Gaza, with jurists and child welfare organizations not even raising questions regarding the high number of Palestinian children being killed.
Support for this government stems from the fact that Kaplan Street demonstrators did not join in mass, but dozens of courageous activists who accompanied Palestinian farmers and shepherds in order to shield them from settler violence, neither before nor during this war.
The erroneous conception stems from a goal that has not changed.
To get the Palestinians used to the idea, even their minimal ambition for a small sovereign state alongside Israel will not be realized, let alone their expectation that Israel, in principle, accept responsibility for the expulsion of 1948 and agree to some process of refugee return Let alone their demands for equality between the river and the sea.
Scott, your thoughts?
Well, we're confronted with this every show, every chance.
I mean, the subject doesn't change.
We are, of course, becoming more saturated in it, and the overall effect of the saturation of seeing the videos, seeing the destroyed buildings, seeing the starving, shivering children,
uh huddled around smashed buildings crying for their mother and father or entire family uh that's that's uh buried underneath this is the true heartbreak this is the true genocide and evil and to shed a tear for seven aid workers that are delivering food is insignificant compared to the 33,000 that have been killed
Of course that the murder of these European, Polish, American, Australian individuals is reprehensible and it is murder.
It is a betrayal.
They had communicated and obtained a guarantee from Israel that their vehicles and their work and their convoy would be off limits and they were given permission and they were told what to do and when to do it.
They were lured into a trap.
Now, why all of these countries didn't immediately summon their ambassadors back from Israel is a confirmation of their cowardice or their whoredom.
And the fact that John Kirby, Admiral John Kirby, and that's an insult to the Navy, the National Security Council spokesman, the fact that John Kirby would receive a question asking about the attack of these aid workers and his response is, Well, you know, Israel's already doing a report, and let's just wait to see what they come back with, and we'll go from there.
That reporter should have jumped out of their seat and said, hold on!
It is your responsibility to investigate the deaths of Americans, not their killers, to produce a report that you find appetizing or digestible.
It is your responsibility, Mr. Kirby, to investigate the deaths of Americans, not the country that killed them!
Do you not agree with that, Mr. Kirby?
The fact that we have so many morons in the media, so many traitors in the government, so many retards in the military, just tells me this country, because it's turning its back on God, is about to be, is already being turned into hell and has a Sodom and Gomorrah future, because I don't see any Nineveh repentance coming through.
Jim?
Well, Scott's absolutely right.
We ought to be withdrawing.
All the nations ought to be withdrawing their ambassadors and shutting them down.
In the meantime, the American Israel Political Action Committee organized a phone call with Netanyahu so that he could try to get Congress who has 218 seats that are Republicans and 209 that are Democrats.
He was just asking for only 14 point or I'm sorry 17.6 billion dollars of new resources to continue building their war machine and he's talking about how it's so important for American security to fund this money because He's Palestinians in Gaza.
We're such a threat to American security.
He said our battle is your battle.
Our victory is your victory.
And if we don't have a victory, this will have enormous implications for the American security and for our common future.
So we must win, Netanyahu told Congress.
Give us the tools faster and we'll finish the job faster.
I'm talking about supplemental Netanyahu said referring to $17.6 billion worth of military aid that's currently pending in our house.
This is our house.
These are, this is our reps.
218 of them theoretically are Republicans.
They're so sold out to this American Israel Political Action Committee that over 30% of Congress has taken over $100,000 From this political action committee alone.
This is getting ugly.
When will we stop letting these forces pull the strings on our American politicians that are supposed to be protecting our American interests?
I don't believe you protect our interests by continuing to give the nation with the most powerful artificial intelligence killing system in the world more money to keep building more killing systems.
How much do you need to bomb the hell out of Gaza?
And why are we upset about some aid workers?
They knew what they were getting into.
I understand that they're foreign, but have you thought about our brothers and sisters that are actually Palestinians?
What they've been having to go through?
This is the travesty of the highest order.
Agreed.
Meanwhile, breaking.
This I regard as fake news.
The U.S.
will not interfere if Iran attacks Israel.
Though a series of messages exchanged via third parties, the U.S.
and Iran have come to an understanding.
Iran assured the Americans it will not target U.S.
facilities, and in turn, the U.S.
says it will not get involved if Iran retaliates against Israel.
Israel carried out an attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus without consulting the United States.
Here we have key players.
Israeli politicians suggest Israel will use nukes if America stops supplying weapons.
Just as that Ukrainian post said, Ukraine's going to continue to use ships to take down our bridges if the money doesn't keep flowing.
In the event of a conflict with Iran, if we do not receive American ammunition, we will have to use everything we have.
Israeli MK, member of the Knesset, Nisam Vetturi, a representative at M. Netanyahu's ruling Likud party, issued a not-so-veiled threat Saturday, suggesting that issued a not-so-veiled threat Saturday, suggesting that if America doesn't supply Israel with weapons, then Israel will use nukes.
In the event of a conflict with Iran, if we do not receive American ammunition, we will have to use everything we have.
A turret ominously said.
Israel assassinated a high-ranking Iranian brigadier general and 15 others in an airstrike on an Iranian embassy building in Syria on April 1st.
Iran has pledged to retaliate.
A jury statement being interpreted by many As a threat to use nukes against Iran or potentially even exercise a Samson option, Israel plan to fire off all their nukes and initiate a global nuclear holocaust in case their existence is threatened.
Fox News Mark Levin issued a similar threat in mid-October.
Jewish pundit, Mark Levin, went and stamps an option if America doesn't supply Israel with weapons.
There's a man showing his true colors.
What are they, Israel, going to do if they're surrounded, Levin said?
What are they going to do if 150,000 advanced missiles are going to be shot?
What are they going to do if Iran gets involved?
Well, they can't win a conventional war.
What are they going to do?
I think I know what they do, he continued.
I know what we would do.
We would destroy the enemy, because otherwise we're exterminated.
That's all I have to say.
Israelis have their own nuclear arsenal, which they never admit.
If Israel's going to face annihilation, you think they have those nukes there to collect dust?
If you're a country with that type of weaponry, your people are going to be slaughtered, except this time totally destroyed?
They need to be thinking about all their options.
Alluding to the Samson, Ben Shapiro, in so many words, also floated the Samson option as a reason for the U.S.
to provide additional aid to Israel on his show in the wake of October 7th.
Notice, supplying Israel with aid is illegal under U.S.
law due to a 1977 amendment to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, but the U.S.
simply acts as though Israel does not have nukes to keep the aid flow unimpeded.
Here's Zionist pundit Ben Shapiro saying Israel will initiate Samson Option if America doesn't arm Israel and force Egypt and Jordan to open their borders to Palestinian refugees.
Scott, your thoughts?
Yeah, well that's where we see Levin and Shapiro, Jewish, Zionist, Ashkenazi, you know, disloyal traitors to the Constitution of the United States in their thinly veiled patriotism.
They're very good con artists and they dress up in American constitutional pageantry.
But their absolute service and worship and blood oath to Israel, whatever that means, comes out and shows.
And they're bullying.
Their attempt to call everyone that doesn't bow down and sacrifice their sons or daughters to this war in favor of Israel.
Uh, is, uh, you know, stupid.
You always hear that from Shapiro and Levin and others.
No, the American people are not going to commit their sons and daughters to any war with Israel because, again, this is not a war, this is a genocide!
Nobody cares about or even remembers October 7th, nor do they care or remember Auschwitz or 1945 or any of these other Jewish Holocaust myths.
Myths, I'll say again, and I'll say it one more time.
Myths of Holocaust.
Jim has expertise far greater than mine, and he can chime in to prove those myths, of course.
But no one even cares about any Holocaust, World War II, or any claims of being attacked or hurt or killed.
Israel has launched this false flag, PSYOP, 9-11.
They're very well practiced at it.
They launched this to trigger a 9-11 scenario.
Netanyahu, the expert, he thought he was going to have another Afghanistan-Iraq all over again.
And suddenly everybody was just going to go skipping to Israel's tune.
And like Nikki Haley said, finish them!
Finish them!
No, Americans aren't that dumb.
They're not that immoral.
They've always thought for a long, long time that Israel is the source of wickedness and persecution and violence in the Middle East, and in particular Palestine.
And now it's proven.
Now it's without a doubt.
And anyone that comes to the side of Israel to continue Israel's genocide is a genocidal murderer.
Whether you're dropping the knife yourself or your hand is on the other murderer's hand assisting the plunging of the knife, you're still guilty of murder.
So Ben Shapiro, so Levin, so these other Jewish Zionist whores and agents and Operatives.
Their personality and their agenda is not the American personality or the American agenda, and I think out of the ashes, the phoenix of that is going to be emerging.
Jim?
Brian?
Well, there was recently a book released about nuclear war and what its devastation would look like.
Daily Mail did a big article on How macabre it would actually be.
Basically, a nuclear World War III would leave 2 billion people around the world dead, at least.
And just so you understand, a 1 megaton thermonuclear weapon detonating over the Pentagon would instantly kill 27,000 people and incinerate everything within a mile radius of the blast.
The intense heat and shock wave would destroy landmarks like the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials.
The blast would ignite a massive firestorm that would consume an entire city, killing over a million people within minutes.
And again, they'd be the lucky ones because the survivors Would suffer horrific burns and radiation sickness with no emergency services available.
The electromagnetic pulse that came from the blast would disable communications and transportation, leaving very few survivors isolated and unable to get aid.
And experts recommend or the US government has prepared detailed plans for all these types of scenarios.
I would imagine that we this is the last thing that we want to see happen.
And for Israel to use this as a negotiating point to get their $17.6 billion against the United States of America shows that they ought to be considered our enemy, and we ought to be considered at war with them just because they said it.
Very, very good.
Yes, very appropriate.
Meanwhile, we have a Surprising development here.
This is former Clinton Labor Secretary Robert Reich who is going after Biden hammer and tong that he must stand up to Netanyahu, and it was published in Reader Supported News, a well-known left-wing website, yesterday.
I'm deeply troubled the Biden admin continues to approve the transfer of thousands more bombs to Israel.
Not only does this further our moral complicity in the bloodbath in Gaza, but it gives away whatever bargaining leverage the Biden admin might have to stop Netanyahu from further death and destruction in Gaza.
One need not take sides in this war to be horrified by the killing of tens of thousands of innocent civilians.
Of course Hamas deserves condemnation for seeking the obliteration of Israel and for the inhumanity it wrought on October 7th.
The Israeli government of Netanyahu deserves condemnation for killing over 30,000 Palestinians living in Gaza, a large percentage of them children, by May.
The World Food Program and others suggest half the population of Gaza may be on the verge of catastrophic starvation.
I believe Biden genuinely wants a conflict to end.
I believe he truly thinks Israel's operation to go after Hamas has been over the top, as he said, in terms of it being wildly disproportionate to the odious action Hamas took on October 7th.
I believe Biden was truly outraged and heartbroken by the Israeli airstrikes in Gaza earlier this week, killing seven, eight workers for the charity group World Central Kitchen, and I believe he really does want to draw a red line and prevent Netanyahu from mounting a planned invasion of Ratha, where 1.4 million Palestinian refugees have sought shelter.
Despite all this, the Biden admin has been unwilling to impose a single cost or consequence that would translate into real pressure on Netanyahu instead.
The U.S.
has just authorized the transfer of billions worth of more military equipment, just approved the shipment of 2,000-pound bombs and of 20 F-35s.
Beyond American moral complicity and the bloodbath in Gaza, there is also politics here in America and in Israel.
Americans are no longer willing to provide unconditional support to the Israeli government as it kills and starves ever more Palestinians.
Many Democrat voters are unhappy with Biden's inability or willingness to confront Netanyahu, the most right-wing prime minister of the most right-wing government Israel has ever had.
I believe Biden genuinely wants the conflict to end.
I believe he truly thinks Israel's operation to go all over the top, as he said, in terms of being wildly disproportionate to the odious crime.
Hear more.
This is from the wonderful Journalist for RT, do you believe that what's happened in Gaza constitutes genocide?
I do.
And I think that the fact that this debate is raging on shows that what Israel is doing is egregious enough.
The fact that people are actually having a debate on whether or not it is genocide.
Like you said, the International Court of Justice has agreed that there's a plausible case for genocide.
I think that you just clearly articulated several factors that Israel is, in fact, carrying out.
the mental bodily harm and caring about conditions to destroy a group of people.
Clearly the complete siege on Gaza, the elimination or the prevention rather of water, food, electricity, the prevention of aid, widespread preventable illnesses, killing people.
Now we see 2 million people on the brink of starvation.
Clearly, these are all intended to destroy a group of people.
When you compound that with the indiscriminate bombing in the most densely populated places on Earth, I would absolutely constitute that as genocidal killing.
And then peers compound that with the fact that there's genocidal intent.
This is usually one of the hardest things to prove in a case of genocide.
Not the case in Israel's genocide in Gaza.
We have five pages just in the ICJ ruling that clearly lay out the explicit intent to carry out genocide.
And I'll just point to two.
The Israeli president who said shortly after October 7th that no civilian in Gaza is innocent.
and that they should have overthrown Hamas.
And because they didn't, they are essentially worth killing.
And then you have the defense minister shortly after October 7th that these are human animals and we need to act accordingly as he announced the complete siege of Gaza.
So taking all that into account, I would absolutely constitute what is happening is genocide.
And Israel needs to be held accountable and stopped immediately because it's the gravest crime against humanity that a state can commit.
Meanwhile, as though in response to political pressure coming from all sides, Israeli military reduces troops in southern Gaza and the military reduces troops in southern Gaza.
Israel said Sunday it had withdrawn more soldiers from southern Gaza, leaving just one brigade, as if in a mosque sent teams to Egypt for fresh talks over a potential ceasefire in the six-month conflict.
Israel has been reducing numbers in Gaza since the start of the year to relieve reservists and is under growing pressure from its ally Washington to improve the humanitarian situation, especially after last week's killing of seven aid workers.
A military spokesperson did not give details on reasons for withdrawing soldiers or the numbers involved.
Both Israel and Hamas, the Islamist movement that controls Gaza, confirmed they were sending delegations to Egypt.
But PM Netanyahu warned Israel would not bend to foreign pressure or give in to extreme demands.
A Hamas leader, Bassam Naim, blamed him.
Netanyahu is still stalling to save himself from failure and the responsibility for the day after the battle.
It seems that the U.S.
pressure is not enough to compel him to go for a complete and comprehensive ceasefire.
Hamas says an agreement must secure a complete and comprehensive ceasefire, full withdrawal of forces from areas occupied after October 7, and freedom of movement of residents across the Gaza Strip.
More than 250 hostages were seized, some 1,200 killed during the October 7 attack.
More than 33,100 Palestinians have been killed in the Israeli offensive, according to the Health Ministry.
It was unclear whether the troop reduction in South Gaza would delay a long-threatened incursion into the city of Rafah, which Netanyahu says is needed to eliminate Hamas, but anxious foreign powers have said could wreak an unacceptable toll on civilians.
Palestinian residents of the southern city of Khan Yunis, which has come under Israeli bombardment in recent months, said they had seen Israeli forces leaving the center of the city and retreating to the eastern districts.
It seems, at the end, it may be a happy Eidzat Ibn al-Judah 55, who lives with his eight-member family in a tent in Rafah, referring to the coming Muslim Eid al-Fitr holiday that begins midweek.
The Occupation withdrawal forces from Khan Yunus.
The Americans pressuring after foreigners were killed.
Egypt is holding a big round with the Americans, the Israelis, Moss and Qatar.
This time we are hopeful.
Do not tell Reuters via chat app.
Of course, the border became the last refuge for more than a million.
Six months of combat have strained the Israeli military and economy.
Many security experts say they now see a greater threat from Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Israel is also on alert for possible retaliation from Iran in relation to killing Iranian generals on April 1st.
Israel is under increased pressure from the U.S., where President Biden has demanded that it improve humanitarian conditions in Gaza and work toward a ceasefire, saying U.S.
support would depend on that.
It's the first time Biden, a staunch supporter of Israel, has sought to leverage U.S.
aid in a way to influence Israeli military behavior.
The U.S., after all, is the major supplier of arms to Israel's military.
Scott?
Well, I'm going to be leaving in a few minutes, so I'll just say in the interest of time, we're seeing the same arguments put forth, we're seeing the same evidence, we're seeing a variety of people coming out from different sides of the theater.
Abbie Martin I think it's pretty cute.
Used to be an RT.
She's always been a little bit of a lefty, but we're seeing people of the left and of the right.
I mean, I'm a conservative conservatives.
We're seeing people come together on this subject of what's happening to the Palestinian because it defies all humanity.
It defies The English language to describe what Israel is doing.
It is pure evil and anyone that supports it and encourages it and finances it is deserving to be punished by God eternally for that evil.
Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord, I shall repay.
This is the most demonic bloodletting we've ever witnessed in the history of the United States.
I would say in the history of Christendom.
I would say in the history of the entire world.
And it has been entirely orchestrated by the Jews, the Zionists, the Ashkenazi, the Khazarian Mafia, whatever you want to call them, the Edomites, the Nephilim children, the six-fingered demoniacs.
This is entirely done by the Likud Party, Netanyahu, and the U.S.
has a duty to respond.
And it is not with the AIPAC agents of Shapiro or Levin or anyone else.
It is for the American people to stand up and say, this is not what we can back.
And in fact, there are laws in the United States book that prohibit the financing of genocide and countries that engage in genocide.
When we see videos of these American congressmen nonchalantly walking through the halls and arrogantly spitting words at people that genuinely are bringing up their heartfelt concerns for what's happening to their friends, family, or relatives in Gaza, as a young lady had presented to some piece of garbage rhino, his response was turning and looking at her and spitting at her arrogantly with the words, well, why don't we just kill them all?
Let's just kill them all.
I can't even imagine an America where such a person would occupy a position of political leadership, but obviously we have become that island of misfit toys, that realm of insanity that deserves, again, a Sodom and Gomorrah end if there's not going to be a Nineveh repentance.
Jim?
Well, those people in Israel that are Of course, there's 80% I've heard of Israel that does not continue to support
Netanyahu, but I would argue that changing out Netanyahu isn't going to do a thing to change a culture that's continually trained from a very young age, that they are superior to all other human beings, and that we are human animals, even if, I mean, to give us the human is even a stretch for these people, because I think that they think of Gentiles and other bloodlines as anything, nothing more than cattle or the goyim.
So changing out Netanyahu is not going to do anything to change the problem.
Why America doesn't give all these other nations weapons, but we continually kowtow to Israel, I do not understand, except that their political action committees and their boards of directors at NBC and CBS and ABC, they're all saying, except that their political action committees and their boards of directors at NBC and CBS and ABC, they're all saying, hey, I do not continue to support any alliance with Israel.
I don't think we ought to have any alliance with Israel.
And I think we ought to be measuring them by the same judgment measure that we measure any other nation, any other time, in any other place.
We were theoretically outraged about what happened in World War II, even though we didn't get the history right on that.
Why aren't we theoretically outraged about what's happening right here, right now?
Because Israel's doing the same thing to the Palestinians that theoretically happened to them in World War II.
I don't support this.
This is a catastrophe.
We should have seen this for what it was when the Bolsheviks entered Russia and started that revolution.
It should have been rooted out and there's a reason that Israel has been kicked out of 175 nations over the course of the last couple thousand years.
They've been driven out for a reason.
People cannot, governments cannot tolerate this darkness continuing to We will its way into the fabric of their society.
It's a darkness.
that needs to be shut down.
Amen.
You're on mute, Jim.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Meanwhile, Trump leaves Biden in the swing states, according to a poll.
A New Wall Street Journal found former President Trump leaves Biden in six critical swing states.
This comes as voter discontent appears to be fueled by concern about Biden's job performance and economic management.
When asked which candidate they would support, voters in multiple states selected Trump over Biden.
Supporters were asked to choose between the two.
The poll revealed Trump led Biden by 5 points in Arizona, 1 in Georgia, 3 in Michigan, 6 in North Carolina, 4 in Nevada, 3 in Pennsylvania.
For Wisconsin, Biden and Trump were tied.
Trump's approval fell one point in Arizona, yet remained unchanged in Wisconsin.
Another thing that could hurt Biden in the 2024 raid is the way he handled the economy.
The majority of respondents to the survey think Trump, not Biden, is the best candidate to deal with the economy, inflation, and growing prices.
This comes just days after a poll from the Associated Press, the New York Center for Public Affairs, indicated most Democrats would be extremely fearful, 66%, or very angry, 60%, if the former president were to win a second term in 2024.
On the other hand, Biden victory would leave 49% of Republicans feeling very afraid, afraid and 45% extremely angry.
A second term of Trump is more likely to be met with satisfaction and excitement among Republicans than among Democrats over Biden.
Regarding their expectation for Trump's second term, 59% of Republicans are very satisfied, 54% very excited, according to the poll.
Thus anticipating a Trump victory, Democrats are trying to stop Trump from firing disloyal feds.
If America's a mess today, it's in part due to the bureaucrats who enforce and sometimes make policy.
One big lie we're told is we are a nation of laws.
Really?
Tell that to the sanctuary cities who defy our laws in truth.
We are a nation of men and women.
If men are unwilling to stand up and enforce the law, then the laws are not enforced.
If judges are too cowardly to face a mob, they cave to lawlessness.
The law is nothing more than words on pieces of paper.
It takes a person, usually a man, to go out and actually implement.
What brings us to personnel is policy.
For some reason, government bureaucrats lean overwhelmingly left.
Obama before him and now Biden are trying to hire and keep in place as many far-left, open-border, American-hating traitors as they possibly can.
Biden's administration took steps to protect the deep state from being fired.
They're worried President Trump will dismantle their bloated bureaucracy, tweeted at GOP.
They don't want Trump coming and getting rid of them, so Biden's Office of Personal Management introduced a new rule to prevent the firing of civil service.
The target is indisputably Mr. Trump, who issued an executive order late in his admin that could have allowed thousands of career civil servant positions to be reclassified, making it easier to fire workers.
Trump said removing poorly performing employees who fell under Secret Service protection had become too difficult, so reclassifying them was a way to get better results from the bureaucracy.
Known as Schedule F. The order was aimed at positioning Greek policy.
Trump said those jobs ought to be responsive to the president.
A lot of those civil servants have made themselves very worthy of being fired.
I hope Trump learned the lesson about personnel.
I'm not convinced that he has.
And NATO, similarly, seeks to Trump-proof Ukrainian aid.
In a new announcement, the alliance wants to make sure there won't be any attempt to reduce weapons and assistance to Ukraine under a new admin.
April 4th marked the 75th anniversary of signing of the NATO alliance with the original 12 members.
Serendipitously, it was reported this week NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has proposed setting up a new $100 billion fund to help Ukraine continue its effort against a Russian invasion just in time for the anniversary.
While only in the planning stages, the so-called Mission for Ukraine proposal would see NATO take control of the Ramstein Group In which the U.S.
set up to coordinate military supply to Ukraine, a particular aspect of which was immediately met with a cold shoulder by the White House yesterday.
The alliance support for the proposal, which seeks a Trump-proof support for the Ukraine war in the event a former president is elected, and seek to pull a plug on U.S.
funding for Ukraine, There's little long lines one might expect, with support coming from the Baltic, Poland, and the Washington Post, opposition from Hungary.
Critics, such as the legendary American diplomat Chas Freeman, say Bled is simply a case of throwing good money—in this case, borrowed money—after bad.
Freeman sees this as NATO clutching at straws, as he tells Responsible Statecraft.
NATO has run out of Ukrainians to sacrifice on the battlefield, as well as the armaments production needed to equip the existing, greatly depleted Ukrainian Armed Forces.
A bond fund will neither create more Ukrainians, nor produce more weapons to arm those who have so far survived.
What Europe and Ukraine really need, he says, is peace, which demands negotiation with Russia.
This is a shameless attack, attempt to use financial capitalism to avoid the reality.
While further enriching munition manufacturers, NATO is not a hedge fund, and should not attempt to behave like one.
When alliances attempt to borrow money for lost causes, you'd be right to judge they know the jig is up.
Stoltenberg has reportedly pitched a plan as a means to shield the mechanism against the winds of political change.
As such, it's redolent of the way the European Commission functions when it seeks to supplant national law with supranational diktat.
If voters in the U.S.
or Canada or France or Germany seek to elect people like Trump who want to defund the war effort, the existence of such a fund essentially overrules them as Trump-proofing.
Chicago-based international affairs analyst Niels Bohan sees this as an attempt to insulate the fundamentally political body, NATO, from the politics of the body's most important member, the U.S.
It hands over billions of dollars to NATO and seemingly discretionary control over the U.S.
military.
Indeed, a proposal raises a number of questions, such as, does it violate the NATO Charter?
The NATO treaty posits that an armed tank against one should be considered an attack against all.
But Ukraine is not a NATO member.
And the treaty, in any case, merely calls for consultation in the event of territorial integrity, political independence, or security of any of the parties were to be threatened.
Does it mean American military assets in Europe will be controlled by an unaccountable bureaucracy in Brussels?
After all, as an unnamed diplomat told the Financial Times yesterday, this will be crossing a Rubicon.
NATO will have a role in coordinating lethal support to Ukraine.
As of now, the White House seemed to be taking a wait-and-see approach, but the Biden admin seemed to have a fatal attraction to bad ideas, of which this is yet another in a rather depressingly long series.
Scott, your thoughts, if you are still here, my friend?
Well, in finality, I'm about to leave, but I'd say, you know, people need to understand Trump coming in and changing the government, he could have and should have done that in his first term.
Anyone that's worked in the government understands how to do that.
And his failure to do that was his failure and his undermining of himself.
Changing the government can be done.
It's very easy, and I've done it, and I've worked with people who've done it, to go in and fire the bureaucrats.
And there's a process to put them on leave, to put them on unpaid leave, to put them on permanent leave, and then to fire them.
You have to go through unions and such, but there is a way to do it, especially when the national security of the United States is at stake.
So these asinine and stupid bluffs, and that's all they are, bluffs, because they have no weight of law or the Constitution, to say, well, we're going to, you know, make sure that the help and the aid and the money doesn't stop going to Ukraine.
We're going to make sure that he can't fire bureaucrats.
He can't do that.
That's the nature of the presidency.
And all he would need is Scott Bennett to be his man to walk into each agency and kick open the door and say, OK, all of you bastards, I want standing outside your doors and I'm going to be inspecting your offices.
You don't like it?
Go home.
There's ways to do it diplomatically.
But the President of the United States is tasked by Congress to oversee the management of every agency, and that means everybody working in the agencies.
And he can do it with a joint military investigation force, military police, a special counsel, a Department of Justice inspector general czar is the best way to do it.
And it's easily done.
And that's what he needs to do.
That's what's afflicted him.
That's what's failed the United States.
So I would say moving forward, getting our own house in order is the key.
And the sooner we do that, the sooner not only we're going to be entering a Jefferson, Davis, Abraham Lincoln scenario anyway.
Democrats are never going to surrender power.
They're always going to create false flags, as I've said before.
They are probably going to kill Kamala Harris, blame it on an Iranian or Russian or Trump supporter.
She's a good candidate for assassination because suddenly they get the women and the Hispanics and the blacks or whatever looks like her on their side to say, oh those MAGA Republicans are so bad!
Yeah, we need to take everybody's guns away.
And that's what they're going to do, and they're going to move Gavin Newsom into Kamala Harris's position, and then that sodomite is going to slip up into the presidency when they take out Joe Biden, and then they think they're going to declare martial law, suspension of the elections, and all sorts of the draconian post-COVID-19 authoritarian shutdowns.
There's going to be a civil war, a revolutionary war, whatever you want to call it, correction, long before any of that happens, because we know the writing on the wall, we're praying against it, but we're also preparing ourselves to be the kinetic solution in case it happens.
Jim, with that, I'll say adieu.
Thank you so much, Brian.
Well, Thursday last week, the Office of Personnel Management passed a new rule to strengthen civil service protections.
It was basically an anti-Schedule F Trump rule that would basically make it impossible.
Remember what Schedule F was?
That was in the last months of Trump's presidency, where he basically reclassified federal employees that were involved in policymaking and stripped them of their civil service rights, allowing them to be fired coming into the next round of the presidency. allowing them to be fired coming into the next round
Joe Biden worked with the office of or the White House worked with the Office of Personal Management to strengthen those civil service protections as a safeguard to prevent Trump from doing mass firings in the federal government when he does come back in.
So apparently they're already prepared for this even though they're putting out all these poll numbers all over the place that show that Biden's still in the lead.
I don't believe any of it.
I think it's going to be a landslide just like it was last time and they're just going to gaslight us and make it believe it.
But basically the new Office of Personnel Management's rule clarifies and reinforces civil service protections uh to a merit system that uh Basically makes it even more difficult to get rid of these federal employees, these useless federal employees.
Don, I think we've covered the bases.
Let's call it a day.
Oh, some bases we've covered that are really hard to cover because they're so hard to realize that we're in a big predicament here.
The world is not as beautiful as the eclipse that we saw in an orderly way.
God had this whole creation.
We were trying to destroy the whole place here with bitter fights that are not needed.
And so it's a rough time these days.
Thank you for putting up with us and watching this show.
I think you're learning a lot more than you really want to know, folks.
So please watch it and share it and come back next week because I think we're going to have a whole lot more to do.
Well, hopefully it's going to be a lot better.
I'm going to have a lot better news next week, but this is a rough show, and I appreciate you doing what you can to keep things sane in this crazy world.
God bless.
