Jon Stewart on this Monday's Daily Show interviewed Peter Beinart and really opened up about the Gaza genocide and Israel's responsibility as well as the US responsibility Finally 2 Jewish men get real publicly about the ongoing travesty https://bit.ly/4527daM
Meanwhile dirtbag defensive Jewish Democratic political operatives like Simon Rosenberg continue their silence It explains the DNC position in the 2024 election Disgraceful!!!
Jon Stewart discussion was brilliant - such a treat to to listen to both of you have a deep, no holds barred conversation, where Mehdi cracks up Jon! So energizing to listen to two people with brains and integrity spill the tea!
I watched the AJ Head to Head debate( as soon as it hit YouTube) and, I truly feel that Mehdi, is our generation’s James Baldwin. I am continually impressed, by his oratory skills. I love seeing(and supporting!) everything that you do. Thank you ✊🏾👏🏾🫶🏾🙋🏾♀️
To starve a people (war crime), destroy homes as a collective punishment (war crime), to destroy unniversities, schools, mosques and chufches with clear intent to ethnic cleansing of a people ( Genocide) destroy maternity hospitals, to switch the power off to incubator, to deny baby formula and pain killers. This is Genocidal.
My feeling - this is a Holocaust in Gaza, it meets every definition and the burning happens as all those bombs dropped and missiles fired.
We will need Nuremberg type trials when this is done Israel has behaved exactly like Nazi Germany, even to the point of attacking all the neighboring states, and Israel will need complete restructuring and oversight to ensure it is completely changed and can never do anything like this again
I love Medhi and I think he did great with the Pod Save Bro debate, but I wish they had a Palestinian person, like Dana Buttu instead. The other a We need to center and believe Palestinian voices, even on the left and in the propalestime space we fall victim to centering non Palestinian speakers. The head to head and daily show pod appearances were great. The jubilee made me feel like Medhi needed a hug after.
Does anyone remember that Bradley Cooper movie “Limitless” where he takes a smart pill and is able to completely outwit any adversary? Watching Medi debate makes me wonder if he’s been taking Bradley Coopers smart pills.
These were all brilliant. So many good things said. But I loved this quote from Mehdi when he was chatting with Jon, that will make me pretty much a forever fan.
"Until we deal with money in politics we're simply not gonna have a proper opposition.. we are gonna have you know coke and diet coke.... "..and worse.
Mehdi exactly cut to the root of things. Thank you!
I feel, If we can't change this soon we are up the proverbial shit creek for all mankind as equality becomes hyper extreme and any kind of rules based order will be out of the window.
I also loved his beautiful push back on the pod save debate.
Jeremy Ben-Ami seems like a complete hypocrite. Zionism was from its invention in 1881 a white racial supremacist colonial settler ideology of genocide even though the word genocide did not exist in 1881.
The Zionist goal was the creation of a Zionist (or Jewish) state. This goal was predicated on the physical destruction of the Palestinian group in Palestine. The Zionist leadership understood the predicate and immediately began to develop a specific malicious strategy (dolus specialis) of physical destruction of the Palestinian group.
This strategy was continuously updated and improved until the Zionist colonial settlers put the long planned genocide into full operation in Dec 1947. The Zionist genocide against Palestinians has never ended and has reached the mass-murder phase with the Gaza Holocaust.
Likewise, the Nazi genocide of Jews started in Jan 1933 and did not reach the mass-murder phase of the Nazi Holocaust until 1941 during Operation Barbarossa. Please read the linked post. Mehdi needs to discuss the law of genocide with a lawyer that understands genocide law.
Just a reminder that your other country, England, is also complicit, as are many of your politicians and RAF personnel.
“I’m also aware, that some or quite a bit of what goes on here can’t necessarily be talked about all of the time. Although we’re really proud of what you’re doing. We can’t necessarily tell the world what you’re doing here, and therefore it makes it really important to say thank you to acknowledge that, because although we’re not saying it to the whole world for reasons that are obvious to you, the whole world is relying on you, and everybody back at home is relying on you and knowing that you will be there.” Starmer

Yes. That was my feeling, too.
Keep crushing it, Mehdi. You and Jon absolutely need to do more projects and interviews in the future!
I wish! I love Jon S. Always have.
Mehdi. Love your insights and moral courage. But I consider it gatekeeping that you REFUSE to share your adderall dealer’s contact info.

The UK is not the USA or Germany, but close behind.
mehdi hasan. thank you for what you do!!
Mehdi: the part of the debate on the function and inaccuracy of the self-victimization is 🔥. You’re really on point
Also the steadfastness around honest languaging about the genocide is important and I believe Mehdi’s argument here is on the right side of history
Thanks
Wonderful segment from Pod Save America. Mehdi was brilliant and so effective in zeroing in on key issues.
Thanks
