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.
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
Jeremy Ben-Ami (at 53:00 in particular): I doubt that anyone is confused about why you feel entitled to own the word "genocide." You believe that your feelings, about a past genocide, are more important than everyone else's feelings about a CURRENT genocide.
This current genocide exposes you (and everyone who shares your position) as the holocaust-deniers that you are.
You, Jeremy, are wilfully complicit in this holocaust. You blame RESISTANCE to Israel's racist, expansionist, annexationist savagery, as if it justifies Israel's ESCALATION of its racist, expansionist, annexationist savagery. You attempt to JUSTIFY & FURTHER INCITE this phase of Israel's genocide against Palestine's rightful occupants, by telling OVERT LIES. And all the while, you try to feign moderate sensibilities, in order to slither your hateful agenda past the credulous.
You choose the term "moral abomination" precisely because it has no specific meaning, yet you expect it to sound like strong enough criticism to sanitize your holocaust-denial.
It isn't.
There is no excuse for your position, and I believe you know that.

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.

Yes. That was my feeling, too.

The UK is not the USA or Germany, but close behind.
Mehdi. Love your insights and moral courage. But I consider it gatekeeping that you REFUSE to share your adderall dealer’s contact info.
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
I couldn’t listen to Mulvanny's bs.
