Independent Reporter in Lebanon
I’m reporting to you from the town of Bershkaloe in Lebanon, where two days ago, the Israeli army targeted a medical center with an airstrike, killing 12 medical staff. In recent days, the Israeli army has killed 20 medical staff and first responders in a series of blatant war crimes aimed at terrorizing the population in the south, and in Beirut, and in the Baka. Americans, all of this is happening on your dime.
Anna Kasperian – Israeli Army Targetingand Killing Medical Staff
Yeah, I would like to know, considering that we’ve heard now multiple stories about how the Israeli army targets and is killing medical staff and humanitarian aid workers, since we’re all supposed to be so scared of Iran and what a threat Iran poses, Cenk, how many medical staff has Iran slaughtered? None. Oh, interesting. Who’s the real terrorist here?
Cenk Uygur – Israel Killing Palestinians in Gaza and Now Lebanese in Lebanon
Yeah, so Israel has of course done this repeatedly in Gaza. They’re now doing it in Lebanon. In fact, their leaders have promised that they’re going to turn Lebanon into Gaza, and they destroyed every building in Gaza. So the fascist empire is now moving into Lebanon. Let me guess, American media, self-defense? Come on, what a joke they are.
Anna Kasperian – Israel Major General Uzi Dayan Quote
In fact, I want to go to graphic four here. This is Major General Uzi Dayan in an interview on Israeli press. This is quoted verbatim. He says, “We need to act fast and with full force. Conquer the territory there. Expel everyone who is there. Destroy everything there. Turn it into a death zone.” Which means no one moves around there. He’s talking about Lebanon. Who are the real terrorists? I think the Israelis are the real terrorists.
Cenk Uygur – Major General Uzi Dayan
There’s no question about it. In fact, later in the story, I’m going to give you the killing ratios of Hezbollah versus the Israel army, and you will see that Israel is infinitely bigger terrorist than Hezbollah.
Anna Kasperian – The Whole Reason Why Hezbollah Exists
Israel invaded Lebanon in the 1980s and attempted to steal land. That’s what the Israelis do. They think that they’re entitled to expanding their borders. In order to prevent that from happening again, Hezbollah forms as a militia to protect Lebanon‘s borders, something that we as red-blooded Americans would love if we were being invaded by our neighbor.
Israel is Not the Good Guys
We’re supposed to pretend like the good guys here happen to be Israel. Israel, not the good guys. They’re looking to steal land from Lebanon and they want to disarm Hezbollah. In fact, they’re demanding that the Lebanon government disarm Hezbollah. Since they’re unable to do so, it would spark a civil war. Israel claims that they’re doing this. Their only mission is to disarm Hezbollah and build a buffer zone, which is a euphemism for steal more land. That’s the context that you’re not going to hear in legacy media, and I want you to know the truth.
Israeli Army Killing Total of Women and Children
Of the 912 people who have been slaughtered already by the Israelis in the latest offensive, 67 of them happen to be women, 111 children. They really do specialize in the slaughter of children, don’t they? 38 medical staff have been killed by the Israeli Army. Lebanon‘s state-run news agency is reporting that at least some of those medical staff workers were killed in double tap strikes, another specialty of the IDF. In fact, just yesterday, two paramedics were killed and another was wounded in a double tap strike.
Cenk Uygur – It’s Forbidden to Talk About Putting Israeli Army on the Ground
Wait, why doesn’t Israel put in the army ground troops? That’s not even discussed or debated. It is forbidden to talk about that. When I brought it up on Piers Morgan, immediately everybody started shouting and no one would answer the question. Why doesn’t Israel put in the $200 billion instead of America? You’re not even allowed to discuss that in Washington, yet our reporters are objective? That didn’t occur to a single political reporter? They didn’t ask a single U.S. politician? No, the whole thing is rigged, and it’s super odd.
