Thank you for being a voice of clarity in this whitewash, Owen. At the end of the day, we can speculate until the end of time about which one of the two G establishment parties is "worse." But the one certainty which the very fact of that speculation makes clear is that so long as there is no serious attempt to organize outside of the duopoly stranglehold, there can be no hope for aspiring towards "better."
Couldn’t have said it any better. Well done , one of the few who were not bought or feared loss of money status or any other shallow means when on the other hand Justice and Truth is what matters.
Decades and decades. And I am tired of hearing about October 7th 2023 I say this because one incident doesn't compare what happened to the Palestinians before that date.
literally saying that in back to back sentences lmfao. f**king surreal. its like these people don't even understand the meaning of the words coming out of their mouth.
She said it out of her own mouth that she will always support Israel no matter what. Even if it means killing rest of the Palestinians to take their land.
This is so hard! But voting democrat to prevent Trump is the only way. Trump would be worse than the two evils. He would incite a monumental genocide. I have a big hole in my stomach
I'm surprised no one said anything about the Democrats bipartisanly supporting the Republican Bush Jr. era policies both in domestic and foreign policy regarding this... Its like those administrations couldn't be bothered to develop their own. The adware these muckrakers are throwing around breaks and deletes the comments .exe btw
@@donnavorce8856 may? She's been a part of the congress and didn't care for a long time. She won't change, she's just repeating the typical "i'll work on a ceasefire" card to gain pro-palestenian voters then will support the genocide like she always has been for the last 11 months.
The lack of empathy for Palestinians is truly horrifying, all those who have died deserve to be remembered but for me the deaths of children is the hardest to take. There is a sickness at the heart of a society or more accurately the leadership of a society that cannot see how morally bankrupt it has become. Keep speaking the truth Owen.
Yes--that sickness that, in over 60 years, I never fully grasped until the aftermath of 10/7. My faith in "humanity" has never been so close to disappearing altogether. Every night I go to bed trying to wrap my head around the fact that not only are so many people utterly complacent about the unthinkable suffering and death, but also that there are people who actively cheer it on (and fund it with our money). I'm not an especially sensitive person, and I'm no saint, and I've done some stupid and terrible things in my life, but this... I wouldn't even treat flies so atrociously. Where does the sickness come from?
@@n.ciebevilaqua3603 The sickness comes from capitalism, which can be OK at a smaller scale, but as it grows into international conglomerates, the greed increases and drives more vicious methods. Trade wars morph into shooting wars, and now we risk EVERYTHING with another world war, now with nuclear warheads, and HYPERSONIC missiles that leave even less time to decide whether to launch, or was it a flock of geese?
And for whatever reason, the people I know who love to preach morals - and the countries we know that do the same - are all very quiet all of a sudden.
This once again confirms it. To quote Michael Brooks: "It’s not a complex issue. That’s the big thing. It’s super simple. There’s one group that has enormous power. It’s the most powerful country in the Middle East. It’s backed by the United States. It acts on another population of people with total impunity and it’s never held accountable for anything." R.I.P.
@@dynamicworlds1I don't think/believe M.J.B. sought power whilst on earth, unlikely he sought it elsewhere. Probably "resting" in a state of Nirvana. But I didn't know him as you did.
@@Salina-qd6es "What does rest in power mean? A variation on rest in peace, rest in power is used, especially in Black and LGBTQ communities, to commemorate a person whose death is considered unjust or wrongful. In this way, rest in power is a call to continue the struggle for social justice and as a show of solidarity. Rest in power is also used to pay respect to a person, especially a person of color, who made a difference in the lives of minority communities. It is sometimes used to note the death of a person felt to have died too soon or senselessly, or a person who was influential or meaningful to people more generally." It's an acknowledgement they the person in question cannot truly be said to rest in peace until WE finish the work they were taken from too soon and a show of solidarity for the power their legacy continues to have.
Thank you Owen for caring about Palestinians..... You are a true humanitarian amongst a sea of journalists that have zero integrity when it comes to reporting about Palestine. ❤️🙏🇵🇸
Her language was different when referring to violence inflicted on Palestinians. They have been saying the same for decades. They didn't even allow a single Palestinian speaker.
Sad beyond words....my heart breaks for all Palestinians in Gaza and in the West Bank.. when will humanity prevail, above politicians bought by the Israeli lobbyists. Beyond shameful.
AIPAC $$$$ have already entered the picture with the Kamala Harris campaign, hence why she spoke of an iron clad defense of ''isr*** ..... It will never end and they will always use their money to buy the White House.!!!
"What has happened in Gaza is devastating" Why she did not mention the IDF as the responsible for the davestasion as she mentioned hamas. Hypocrisy and double standard
Thank you, Owen Jones, for your continued great coverage of the unfathomable horrors being inflicted upon the palestinian people. We will carry their voices and stories to the world stage,- and with us,- in our hearts, until our shared humanity has, once again, brought this atrocious to an end!
I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I was whdn I heard her say this. I have been sickened and disheartened ever since..I'm glad how you point out how she DOES NOT FAULT ISRAEL for their mass destruction and mass murder in Gaza. She is a PROSECUTOR! She should be UPHOLDING INTERNATIONAL LAW which finds Israel is committing genocide, & charges Netanyahu & Gallant with war crimes...US law FORBIDS US weapons being used for illegal means! She should uphold this law as well!
Jill Stein has committed to an arms embargo. There is also video of her being assaulted by police at a protest encampment against the Gaza G. She has my vote.
...It's _Not_ AIPAC. AIPAC is just another arm of the American Military Industrial Complex. Think about it... X $ Billions is GIFTED to Israel annually, X $ Billions comes back in the form of lobbying, marketing, kickbacks, etc. Then _Additional_ 10's of X $ Billions are sent in the form of weapons, Manufactured by publicly traded companies. Now YOU look into the stockholders that own majority shares, which are "stock laundering" entities such as Blackrok and Vanguard.
The US benefits from having a non arab, nuclear ally through which it can exert its influence in the middle east. As Biden said in the 1980s, if Israel didn't exist, the US would have to invent one. The most powerful and well funded military in the world military in the world isn't a slave to Israel. Israel couldn't carry out it's genocide without the US.
Some ask, who is Kamala Harris? She is above all else a politician. She is one who has sided with the Israel Lobby and AIPAC over all moral values involving human life and the dignity of human life, over US and international laws, over the UN body of nations for peace and the rulings of UN's courts, over the pleading of a majority of the world's population and the pleadings from a majority of Americans, over the interests of world peace, over the interests of America's safety and its continued peaceful existence with all other nations. This is all anyone needs to know about who Kamala Harris is. Her obstinate refusal to stand up against the Israel Lobby and stop the genocide, makes her unfit to be president of the United States of America. It makes no difference who she used to be or how she got to this place. This is who she is today.
But she is a girl! A girl president! Wow! Obama, a Black man, wow, he was a great president... ignore caged kids immigrationpolicy.. etc.. ! Now a girl! Wow! Fabulous, Awe inspiring! Who the hell gives a damn, if its a girl, boy, trans or a Martian, its irrelevant! policies matter! Ethics matter! Trust is paramount! Intelligent people who give a damn, care about genocide!
If not for the circumstances nobody would have voted for her. Her now saying she wants the US military to be the most "lethal fighting force in the world" come on. I doubt she herself rationalizes war crime laws either, especially if its on the US or their lobbied ally. Her legacy that libs are worried about will be up, if she is exposed for her neo-con takes on this stuff in her first year in office. So I'll await for that. I don't want Trump anymore than anyone else here, but I won't put her on a pedestal. She's just as bad as Hilary Clinton.
she is an absolute liar, all working hard to weaponize ammunition to occupier and on the other hand no condemnation genocide she did months ago about ceasefire for pr she is doing same. A supplier is a weaponizer, not a fair mediator, who has never been serious of human life .
@@ProfoundThinker-c5z So you think that you have to choose one??? Oct 07 ( microscopic now) , compared to what Gaza has gone through . Still horrific , yet Israel is to blame for Oct 07 - they caused it .
@@evelyndominguez4757 Doesn't Israel have a recognised right to exist under international law? The problem is that you are only interested in international law when it suits you.
@ProfoundThinker-c5z , Let's entertain your train of thought... Yes, according to international law ( and thievery, deception, and murder), isreal has the right to the land of another people decided upon by 3rd & 4th, 5th & 6th parties. I think the more relevant question question is, how should isreal exist?
Israel has at no point not had the ability to defend itself, experiencing a terrorist attack is not something that bombs help defend against. Gaza on the other hand has never had any ability to defend itself, and bombs given to their attacker is the biggest threat to their ability to do so. I'm already sick of this woman.
When is this NIGHTMARE going to be over? It's the worst thing I've had to witness as a human being since I was born. I don't know how people can keep sane about this. Thank you so much Owen for all the hard work you're doing, it must be very difficult as a journalist to face all of that (and all the blatant lies that go along with it)every day!
What you have to say, Owen, and what we must hear, is SO painful over and over again But I'm so grateful for your voice crying out in this wilderness-- to bring Truth into Light.
Why do you say he Jones is brave? The Hamas attack on Israel has surely been a BIG MONEY MAKER for Jones. He does like his money. All he has to far is prosecution in the UK and demonitziation form You Tube.
There's nothing to suggest she's going to change course? She's made it known on several occasions she's deeply concerned about the loss of life and the suffering of the Palestinian people, she publicly snubbed Netanyahu on his address to Congress, and as VP she's not in any position to publicly take exception to any aspect of US foreign policy; moreover, there's nothing to suggest that she WON'T change course if elected. And you're right, the election of Trump will not only be infinitely WORSE for Palestinians, but game over for Planet Earth. Vote blue.
So powerful brother. I feel your heart break yet you keep standing up for all of us in spelling out the bitter agonizing truth of what is happening in our world. And urge us not to turn away. Thank you!!
@@ms.l643 votes for Jill Stein didn’t cause trump to win, luv. Trump voters did, in addition to HRC deciding not to campaign in key swing states thereby losing the electoral college. Hope that helps xx
If she was pro Gaza, she would have said so in no uncertain terms, because doing so would gain her tons of votes anyway. She's not saying that, because she's not pro Gaza, and also because the people who finance her are anti-Gaza.
Support for Fadi Deeb, Palestines only Paralympian Competitor for the 2024 Paralympics 2024... He was Paralyzed by an Israeli Sniper. And, he has lost 17 Family Members in Israel's Genocide. 🇮🇪✊🇵🇸✌
Thank you. Beyond sickening to listen to the endless lies and hypocrisy while the butchery continues. It would take a massive wave of civil unrest in the US to even begin to erode their support for Israel's ethnic cleansing and genocide. Some - such as Ilan Pappe - think that this horror could continue for decades , although with less intensity. Thanks also for speaking about the young man, Medo. It is too easy to lose the sense of each individual being.
So then who will you vote for, Trump? He's even worse and has been even more paid off by the Israel Lobby and their billionaires. With Kamala at least you'll get some sympathetic lip service.
@@iamagirl9938That's because they are not taking in what she is saying.. Her failure to properly manage the border as border Czar speaks volumes about her ability to handle the Gaza issue.. Most people are reading her emotionally and that is a problem.
Even without her complicity in this genocide, her history as a prosecutor for California is stunningly atrocious. There's a reason why we call her Copmala.
The whole foreign policy section of her speech was very hawkish..it sounded rah, rah patriotic like a pre-war propagandistic ramping up of nationalistic fervor.
Love you Owen. Keep up the compassionate heartfelt journalism. You’re such an important voice. Thank you for bringing our attention to that young man’s story. Devastating. Harris should be tried at the ICC, along with Biden.
I've been following your channel for some time and this war if for any, has opened my eyes to politics in the US. If you were to be Kamala Harris or any politician in the US, or any western countries at that, you cannot win an election if you come out and openly criticise Israel. That's a fact. I make bold to say that democracy is no longer the same again as what we all know it to be. It's gone.
She said the word Israel several times and no Palestine. She mentioned the Palestinian people in the end. Israel is pictured as being the victim and the attacked one by Hamas but when she mentions the suffering in Gaza etc no one is to blame.
As an American I am so ashamed, so angered, and frustrated because, like so many Americans, we know we live under an oligarchy which is bent on the genocide we are committing but our wishes have no weight. Maybe someday we will rise up and throw our corrupt and empirical government. I am 87 so I won’t live to see it, but I can speak up and hope more will see the light soon.
