Israel and international war crimes. Download YouTube 2023-10-23 (#027) < Previous Next > Natasha Hausdorff, a barrister and an international law expert, is asked how governments go about negotiating the release of hostages. The negotiations, she says, are separate from the legal position. International efforts are being made with regard to the abduction of over 200 hostages. The crimes of Hamas have led to a humanitarian crisis not only in Gaza but also in Israel where the families of the hostages know that the orders to the terrorists were to kidnap and torture. International law is very important and the myths about Israel's conduct have played a significant role in the coverage of it. From an international legal perspective, Israel not only has the right to respond, but under the convention on the prevention and punishment of genocide, Israel also has an affirmative obligation like the rest of the signatories of the convention to ensure that never again means never again. The interviewer claims that there are rules of war and engagement and the question is how Israel defends itself and also what should be the plight of Palestinian civilians under siege with no water, food and medical supplies as well as aerial bombardments day and night. Natasha Hausdorff replies that the laws require the sides to minimize civilian casualties and Israel is attempting to do so by issuing warnings before it strikes and telling people to leave. There has also been a mass evacuation of Israeli civilians away from the borders because of the terrorist organizations. But there is another myth: that Israel has the obligation to supply Hamas terrorists with electricity and other commodities. That is without basis in international law. Nonetheless, after the violent takeover of Gaza by Hamas in 2007, Israel continued to supply the needs of the Gazan civilians that Hamas neglects and abuses. This is not viable during a military campaign where Hamas steals those supplies and uses them to continue firing missiles at Israel. There is no requirement in international law to continue providing resources, only that Israel facilitate the passage of food and medicine by third parties if they can be delivered without diversion to Hamas, which is not the case because Hamas controls Gaza. The basic rules of the Geneva and Hague conventions are that sieges are lawful unless they are deliberately aimed at starving the population. Israel has been absolutely clear that its objective is to defeat Hamas and create a new reality in Gaza by ensuring it will no longer be run by a genocidal terrorist organization, and of course to rescue hostages. Israel weighs up every single of its strikes on Gaza to make sure that any collateral damage is proportionate to the aims of the strike, that the strike is necessary and that the targets are legitimate in tha they consist of terrorist infrastructure.

The Gaza war in 8 minutes (Hillary Clinton) Download YouTube 2023-11-09 (#098) < Previous Next > All you need to know about the Gaza war in 8 minutes (Hillary Clinton) Video Transcription: But remember, there was a ceasefire on October 6 that Hamas broke by their barbaric assault on peaceful civilians and their kidnapping. They're killing, they're beheading, their terrible, inhumane savagery. There was a ceasefire. It did not hold because Hamas chose to break it. So you have to keep several things in your head at the same time. And that is, number one. Hamas is a terrorist organization. It has made very clear it is committed to the elimination of the State of Israel, and it has consistently broken ceasefires over a number of years. Israel has a right to defend itself, as any country would. Ukraine has a right to defend itself against an invasion, an unlawful, inhumane invasion by Russia. And Israel should conduct itself by the laws of war and do everything it can to prevent and limit civilian casualties. Those three things are all true themselves. And so when I said a couple of weeks ago that it wasn't time for a ceasefire because it would enable Hamas to rearm and reposition, because I've been to Gaza, and Gaza is a highly populated urban environment, and what has been going on now for a number of years under Hamas rule, is the building of over 200 miles of tunnels under Gaza, the storing of munitions, all kinds of explosives under hospitals, under refugee camps, under civilian targets, the use of civilians as really just tools of war by Hamas. That has all been going on. And so when I said you could not have a ceased fire, people didn't understand that Hamas would use it for their own purposes. I think we're now moving toward a position where the idea of these humanitarian pauses that the Biden administration has been promoting are now, I think, on the table and should be. And what would that mean? Well, first of all, let's remember over 240 innocent people, not just Israelis, people from other countries. The second biggest number of people taken by Hamas are workers from Thailand who were working in agriculture. So this is a multinational hostage situation. A humanitarian pause would enable two things to happen if Hamas would agree, and that is let the hostages go. These are innocent civilian people. They should not be held as captives to Hamas and let in more humanitarian aid that actually gets where it's intended, not into the hands of Hamas. So if we work on all of that, I think it's possible, given where the current situation is, because the Israelis are now in Gaza with ground troops, they have cut off the north from the south. They have surrounded Gaza City, which is the central command structure of the Hamas militants. So I think now would be a good time to consider doing that. But a ceasefire done prematurely benefits those who do not abide by any laws, by any rules, by any human character value, about the value of life. So it was much too premature. Now, I think the pauses should be considered. Right. Well, let me ask you this, because the ceasefire option, or at least the humanitarian pauses, is a very popular concept, not only in this country but around the world, because we're seeing the death of at least 10,000 innocent Palestinian civilians and half of those are children. Yeah. So former President Obama said, quote, and collective punishment is against international human rights law. So former President Obama said, quote, if you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth and you then have to admit nobody's hands are clean here, that all of us are complicit to some degree. Is that, in your view, a wake up call for Democrats? A lot of the international community agrees with him. Do you agree that the Israeli government as well as the US are part of the problem as well? Well, I think that the problem predates October 7. And I think that's what President Obama was talking about. Because let's remember, this is a very long and complicated history. My husband, with the Israeli government at the time, in 2000, offered a Palestinian state to the Palestinians at that time run by Arafat, Yuser Arafat and the PLO, the Palestinian Liberation Organization, which, by the way, took out of its charter violence against Israel. So you've got to separate the Palestinians who believe that there is some future of peace with Hamas, which believes it has to destroy Israel. Those are two different organizations and they have to be viewed in that way. Arafat turned that down. There would have been a Palestinian state now for 23 years if he had not walked away from it. There was another attempt when I was secretary of state to try to bring the Palestinians and the Israelis together. That didn't work out. Israel left Gaza in 2005 just and forcibly ejected 50,000 Israelis who were living in Gaza. They left all of their infrastructure. They had a big infrastructure of greenhouses where they were supplying fruits, vegetables, flowers, et cetera. And the Palestinians deserved to have a productive, successful economy in Gaza. Hamas came in and basically destroyed all of that and killed a lot of other Palestinians. So I think when President Obama says that, it requires us to look at the history, and of course, history holds all of us accountable, and that is a fair statement. But today we have to look at where we are. And I believe it's imperative, since we have had numerous ceasefires with Hamas, all of which they have violated, to try, finally to dislodge Hamas and allow the Palestinians to have other leadership that will actually once again work for a two state solution, which should be the outcome that we all hope and pray. You know, it's what's funny. The biggest deal when I think about all of this, know, I think about Anwasadat. For me, he was a beacon. If you don't know who he was, look him up. He was somebody who felt that there was a better way for everybody to exist in Israel. Wolfie, can I say something? Because that's a really important point. Israel and Egypt fought wars. That's part of this complex history that people need to educate ourselves about. And after fighting wars, Sadat went to Israel and made peace with the then current Israeli government, and that ended. That's why you see the current Egyptian government working to try to get supplies into Gaza, to try to get civilians and foreign nationals and wounded people out of Gaza. So there's a working relationship now between Egypt and Israel. Jordan and Israel made a peace agreement. I was there to see that happen. So people should not get hopeless. There is hope, but you have to remove from the scene terrorists like Hamas who don't believe in peace. They don't believe in it for their own people. They are using their own people as shields, and they don't believe that it's possible to do with Israel. Let's try to have people who can lead us to peace.

Son of Hamas leader speaks out - Exposing Hamas goals. Download YouTube 2023-10-21 (#020) < Previous Next > Moussab Hassan Yousef, born at the heart of the Hamas leadership, the son of one of Hamas' founding members, has renounced Islam for Christianity. He speaks out about how Hamas does not care about the Palestinian people or have regard for human life. Hamas is a religious movement that aims at establishing an Islamic state. They are using the Paletinian cause to advance that goal and seek to transform the whole world into an Islamic world. Hamas is serving the agendas of Iran and Russia. Iran is the real master here and Hamas serves Iran, not the Palestinians. Israel did not start this ugly war. People are emotional when it comes to seeing children dying. There is evidence that Hamas is killing people at the hospital but they're blaming Israel. Gaza needs to be freed from Hamas. Israel is doing the Palestinian people a favor in doing so. Priority number one is to replace Hamas in the Gaza strip and replace it by a number of alternatives. But now is the time to ged rid of the most terrible terrorist organization in existence.

Something about responsibility Download YouTube 2023-10-24 (#034) < Previous Next > Well before the war with Israel, Hamas created their own humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which has been described as an open-air prison. The question is what the responsibility of the US and Israel is regarding humanitarian aid, and the response is that it is the responsibility of Hamas to surrender so that they can spare the suffering of their people. Everything happened for one reason: Hamas' actions. They didn't attack military targets; they atacked defenseless non-combattant civilians. The reason for the suffering in Gaza is Hamas,and it's not just the war. The Gazans suffered before: the water pipes funded by American tax payers were dug up and made into rockets instead of providing water to the people. Every dime of aid that goes to Gaza is turned into weaponry to be used to kill Jews. Video Transcription: Coming soon
