Israel is happy that aid providers are leaving.This is their plan.
I’m of the same thought now. There’s been too many aid workers injured or worse, to be called “accidents.” Especially this latest one.
@@TheDom277yep. The starvation is the point. Aid workers are trying to stop it and israel is furious about it.
I wouldn't rule it out.
@Kat Would that be your plan?...is that what you mean?
If that pleases them, then it will please them more to stop all aid providers, volunteers, visa workers, business travel, tourists, visitor , basically everyone from entering Israel. Just shut all road, infrastructure, airports, seaports, rail, communication going to and from Israel so they feel safe. Lets give them what they want, total isolation.
Stop voting for Friends of Israel MPs. Let them go to Israel and make a pitch for votes in Israel if they love it so much.
Alex Sobel, Labour MP was a Labour Friends of Israel person. Seems to have gone silent now. Accused his colleagues of being antisemitic.
@@JohnCox-ut3cv "accused colleagues" - of course! They disagreed with him. Seems like friend of Israel are either right, or you are antisemitic.
Israel has always been killing the British, check your history.
They're paid to like it. Most top tier politicians are funded by others and turn the tricks they are paid to do.
💯
we heard a phone recording of a 6yr old begging for help sitting in car surrounded by her dead family, who then was killed by Israel sometime in the next twelve days…..we saw kids flayed hanging off walls and none of you stood up. eternal shame
None of WHO, dya mean by YOU ¿ EH?
ppl have been calling this out for months..... its just the politicians are being backed into a corner.. to not hide it anymore
The video of little Palestinian girl wanting her leg back is heart breaking 😔
Exactly they exposing themself who they are killers
Yes, Jihad has consequences..
How can Israeli clam this was an accident? These vehicles were targeted despite their coordinates being provided to Israel in advance?! This was a war crime.
The accident was that FOREIGN aid workers were in the cars. Had they been Arab, they would just say they were human shields. No excuses, no apology. They executed Arab doctors by shot to the bag of their head while handcuffed (UK doctor source) so what on earth do you expect? Mo ths ago we quibbled about who b9mbed Al Shifa, now we know they have bombed THIRTY-SIX HOSPITALS AND EXECUTED DOCTORS IN COLD BLOOD.
Few people in the media today thread the fine line in such matters better than JOB and of he tells you Israel is being indiscriminate and committing war crimes, they are.
The Palestinian death figures are firther corroborated by the fact that the IDF issues IDs to ALL Gazans as part of the census. Another way Gaza is a prison camp with the prison guards issuing the IDs. And we know that even the IDF uses the Gazan health ministry numbers. Further, they are almost certainly an underestinate given the many thousands still missing presumed dead buried under rubble.
I can’t help but to think that Israel targeted the aid workers not “despite knowing their coordinates” but because they knew their coordinates. At this point it’s obvious that Israel’s goal is to starve the Palestinians and killing aid workers and aid organizations withdrawing from Gaza is precisely according to their plans. Shame
It makes countries stop their aid, to protect their citizen lifes😢😢😢😢
Wish we would have cared each Palestinians life as equal to British, U.S., French or Israel citizens life. Life in Gaza should be just as precious as everyone on this earth. 32000+ people died already and many thousands more are under the rubble.
They can’t care…the war machine could not be supported! So much ammunition and bombs being made right here in the US…probably average wage jobs? And probably the same in the UK and Germany?
Let's just say that human rights are not reserved for the people you list. They are for everyone.
Who will help the Palestinian people? Which country will dare to help? Thank you South Africa for being the only country of humanity.
America needs to get rid of APAC.
they can’t because AIPAC owns America
We need to get rid of Conservative Friends of Israel and Labour Friends of Israel from our political establishment.
If AIPAC was registered as a foreign lobby they wouldn't be allowed to make political donations. That would take away all of AIPAC's influence.
Absolutely
Aipac
If Trevor supports Israel and loves them so much, why is he in England in the safety of his home? 😂
Just imagine... a suspected mur..der..er investigating their own crime. Absolutely ludicrous!
When arguing with a pro-Israel supporter, always remember, they’ll never let you get a fact in edge-ways ~
@sprink Maybe they don't see them as facts. That occur to you?
@@chatham43tends to happen when all you do is lie
@@chatham43 nice try hasbara fly.
If people are denying facts they have no argument to make, facts are facts and evidence can't be debated. Israel not only denies facts they lie constantly and are caught lying and like the boy who called wolf Israel can no longer be trusted to tell the truth.
Just like any other indoctrinated person.
Colour of the skin matters, let's stop pretending. That's the difference, Ukraine, and Israel are considered as white, Palestinians are not.
Admit your prejudice, before you can remedy.
The plight of the Palestinians gets worldwide attention.
Unlike that of the Boers in South Africa.
George Floyd's funeral was televised in Britain.
To be fair a lot of Israelis are brown. Just saying. The leadership is mostly Ashkenazi and white but yea. I agree with you. Thats why people are outraged about the WCK workers more than usual. They were white and western.
@@promark5317 yes they are, including many who are black. But it's the overall acceptance of what it means to be an Israeli, an Israeli is white in the eyes of white Westerners.
Glad you recognise it, shows you have an enlightened mind.
Exactly, I wonder what are they going to do when they become allergic to the Sun?
@@tonjamarshall4842 lol
Most of the victims are young children and women, over 70%. It's horrific..
I guess the men don’t matter then
@@lucylane7397 Apparently, any male capable of holding a weapon is automatically an enemy combatant...
As a mother if my husband was murdered, my son taken away and my daughter tells me the IDF came into the classroom that day. I was displaced and my country was occupied I honestly cannot tell you how I would react to the people who did this to my family . People are not being honest with themselves.
I love nothing more than when James takes Israel defenders and just showcases how little they care about Palestinians and how hateful they are
He's great at it but, more often than not, they're so brazen that they need very little help with exposing themselves.
Rachael Corries death has never been truly investigated. Her parents are still asking questions
Very valid point.
The woman tripped up and fell in front of a bulldozer.
Investigations proved the driver could not see her because the blade was blocking his view.
@@bluestar6879weird how many people are “accidentally” killed by Israel when they provide any sort of aid or support for Palestinians
3 israelis jews were killed by IGF when they hold white flag...investigation proved those israeli jews were found to be self hating jewx for holding anti semetic white flag....
My reply had disappeared for no reason.
Westminster Politicians don't care about ordinary British People, Money and Power is all that matters..
MPs are getting £91,346 salaries prime minister getting double that. ordinary citizens living on the street. They are lucky we are not protesting against them.
But do protests even work tho honestly? Look how many have had or still going on RN but still nothing has changed. We the people gotta come tg for change or will never happen!

How true though. Thanks for the entertainment, Trevor. 😂
Trevor is Partridge-esque
The Trevor call was BRUTAL
Let’s remember that Israel developed the technology to track people on their phones and the US is working with the IDF on intelligence…so where does that go for the US?
Sad that these vets made it through their military service and lost their lives in humanitarian service. On purpose…a known fact! Anger and sad…

@@charisma-hornum-friesThe US and the UK are already using Israeli spyware technology that Israel has tested on Palestinians.
How unhinged was Trevor?
Not allowed to give an opinion on that. I tried but it got removed for some reason. It was only one word and it wasn't rude. It began with letter v and ended in y. I understand censorship but this is a new one on me.

It became untenable the day Defense Minister Gallant declared a full siege of no food, water, electricity and described the Palestinians as human animals. That was a day or two after October 7th. My guts turned; it was a visceral understanding of what was to come.
Trevor who called in should be locked up he seems a danger to the public
Biden is very concerned this time Not like the last ten times he said he was concerned not enough to change policy, he's concerned about not looking concerned
He is also concerned about running out of excuses for supporting Israel.

3 brits, 3000 Palestinians 😢
32000, but yes I understand what you are implying 🙁
You left off a zero on the Palestinian number ... 😢💔
@@Tanakatricks Apologies
Not 3000 almost 34,000 dead not counting the unrecoverable dead under the dead …
October 9th (2 days after Hamas attack) was when Israel's defense minister Gallant declared ""We are putting a complete siege on Gas, No electricity, no food, no water, no gas - it's all closed. We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly. The next day he said: "“I have released all the restraints, we have (regained) control of the area, and we are moving to a full offense. You fought with great courage. You have seen what we are fighting: human animals". On October 30th the Pentagon officially announced the US (Biden's personal decision) supported "no limits" on Gaza invasion IDF tactics (without any details, conveniently, of what that included).
We need to wake up to the threat to us all caused by Israel. They want to escalate this conflict from an attack on an Occupied Territory to a world war focused on the Arab world. It is important to register the psychosis in the psyche of many of the leaders of Israel.
"If I don't steal it then someone else will"

I remember seeing that interview, or one like it, years ago.
Let's ask the question what caused the creation of Hamas,... its the unjust treatment of the Palestinians, you always find resistance when people are being oppressed... remove the oppression and the resistance will slowly dies...
I think the IDF are sending the message that anyone supporting or promoting Palestines side could find themselves meeting with an accident. Be you Doctor, Press, Aid worker.
Thats a war crime
Why they won't let journalist in? Because they don't want anyone documenting the facts...so even without internal journalism in Gaza and seeing the horror imagine if there is more coverage what will we discover....
Why did Trevor say your government with an English accent obviously no loyalty to England
I noticed that too. However I do have a German friend that speaks with an English accent as he was educated in England. Hence I won't read too much into that, plus look at John Oliver and others that became US citizens. They don't claim to be English anymore.
Trevor is a ‘dual national’ who apparently took full advantage of being born and raised in England and is now contributing a great deal - in another country (🇮🇱)
It’s the uk government not the English government do people not even understand the country they live in.

They were actually killed by Israel....yet no action. It is not just Palestinian lives are cheap....it seems that all other nationalities are fair game for Israelis to take!! Is this what is meant by....Chosen people!?!
That caller sounds like Eylon Levy
These brave people survived wars to be slaughtered defenseless by the best army in the world absolutely disgusting 😔
1:31:20 I have to disagree with James here. He said unlike the Nazis the IDF are rounding them up. Yeah, that part was done for them already with the open air prison.
💯
You mean the open air prison with hotels, restaurants and beaches, to which the First Minister of Scotland's in-laws went on holdiday? You haven't a clue.
@@lewislee9201you missed out a lot of issues and controls Israel placed on Gaza during this open air prison. Check points, controlling water, electricity, power, employment, arresting underage children, segregation… seems you don’t have a clue Lewis.
Israel HAS to control the rhetoric or the world will (quite rightly) hate them! This conflict will never stand a chance of ending until Israel acknowledges the rights of Palestinians to: 1) exist, 2) self governance, 3) move and trade peacefully and freely, 4) respect.
We aren't allowed to hate them. It's illegal in the UK
Israel is meant to be a shared land, not an assumed territory. Tis, only, cis post Wwthe euro emigres made Sam feel guilty for turning away the transatlantic liners they turned away....
@suzyqualcast6269 yes. And the people of Palestine had NO say in any of it. They were betrayed and abandoned by the West and left to the wolves! Israel had NO interest in sharing anything with Arab Palestinians, and they want everything (west bank and gaza).
At what point does it become necessary for Israel's allies that claim to believe in international law to impose sanctions on Israel for its violations of international law?
31:07 What is wrong with these people. It’s as if they’ll justify any number of children dying all the way up until it’s one of their children. What is wrong in the mind of someone who can’t find compassion for other human beings. This is not a war, it is not self defense, and it’s not children dying because they’re being used as human shields. People like Trevor are sick in the head.
James O’Brien is brilliant with the way he dismantles the arguments coming from the other side using the logic of the caller
😂😂😂😂The British put down a red line on Rafa 😂😂😂😂
After their complicity in supporting Israel you are smoking something with that one James
While I typically appreciate James O'Brien's insights, I am troubled by his dismissal of a caller's poignant observations regarding the stark contrast in outrage towards the deaths of British aid workers and Palestinians, including British nationals of Palestinian descent. The caller rightfully highlighted this discrepancy, which becomes even more glaring when we compare it to the attention given to conflicts like the one in Ukraine. The caller's mention of Ukraine is particularly valid; during that crisis, we witnessed a markedly different approach in media portrayal, with victims being described in ways that seemed to prioritise their likeness to Western audiences. This disparity not only highlights the media's role in perpetuating biases but also underscores the need for a more equitable and empathetic approach to addressing the lack of outrage towards Palestinian deaths. Instances like Belfast-born Khalid El-Estal's tragic loss of his wife in an Israeli strike demand our attention and compassion yet there was no outcry to this or to the many instances of innocent British nationals of Palestinian descent who were directly affected by Israel's bombing of Gaza. In my view, this highlights a concerning blind spot in the media and public discourse, where certain lives are seemingly valued less due to factors like race and religion rather than nationality.
Best comment 💯
James we've been saying this for years 😭 Israel has done stuff like this for years...just to the Palestinians. You get called antisemitic.
You are a beacon of logical hope in the darkness of reality
What does it teach us? Nothing we didn't know already.
And labour should rethink supporting Isreal if they don’t Nation will question them
If the names, ages and photos of the innocents slaughtered by the IDF were broadcast what would reactions be?
Fairly low to honest
I'm very confused. I have had about six comments removed and I have no idea why. They were not rude, unhinged, defamatory , or anything like that. Who is moderating this?
It's YT.
Try to be more creative with trigger words.

October 7th was a slaves revolt. However it is unjust to portray a resistance movement a terrorist organisations.
Gaza was controlled by Hamas, not by Israel. They chose to turn Gaza into a Sparta-like state in which everything was subordinated to making war on Israel. They made their bed.
It was religious people living their religion.
@@blub5117you are an id 10 t !!!
No that is a pathetic statement you can condemn hamas and the atrocious of 7th of October and still condemn this extremist isreali president and government
@@blub5117People living under occupation and oppression. Have you ever talked to a Palestinian Christian? Go watch their videos on CZcams, you will understand what every Palestinian has to go through under this oppressive state of Israel.
Thank you James O'brien
This problems didn't started in 10th October as Israel genocides against Palestinians is all the time since the occupation started 1948
I think most people care but don't feel they can do anything, feel hopeless, and they may be right. For anyone who has paid attention to what is going on in the area for a great deal of time everything just seems to be going the same way as before, but with a higher death toll.
Any thoughts on the fact that the new Israeli spokesperson is a former Chairman of Labours Friends of Israel, James?
How soon before the world turns and says "are there any innocent jews?"
That would be tragic. I hope that doesn't happen. There are Jews all over the world that are not responsible for what's happening in Gaza, so we shouldn't lump them together. I believe that there are Jews in Israel who are not in support either. The government of Israel is the issue. Shameless and vile. And the countries supporting Israel is the reason why they can do what they are doing and get away with it.
I seem to take objection with a lot of James' opening remarks lately. I do agree that, quite naturally, people take more notice of something that happens at home than elsewhere.
However, this is not just anything, it's a *plausible gen-0-cide -- the worst crime against humanity* -- and it is playing out directly on our social media feeds.
Also, there are many Palestinian Brits who lost family members, and there are Palestinian Brits, from our local areas, who are stuck there, and died there. Why does James never consider that or speak about it?
It's like you feel guilty about why we are reacting to such outrage over a few of our own when we barely blinked, especially in the mainstream media,.and amongst political elite, in regards to it happening to a mammoth number of Palestinians -- over 40,000 according to Euromed Monitor! It raises awkward questions of prejudice and ra-c-ism, I think.
James OBrien - Masterclass. Impressed by the way you disassemble nonsense. - Listening from California
Masterclass, indeed. Listening from South Africa.
I've had an addiction to his YT clips ever since I stumbled onto this show about 4 years ago - and now 100x so since someone at LBC had the *brilliant* idea of putting these 'full show videos' up (I could kiss them for that! TYSM!)
Of course... listening in Florida, my intake of rational discourse is at an all-time deficit.
It has always been wrong James!
They shot two of the three dead, t'other legged it, telling out in Yiddish he was an escapee, chased into ruins, given a kicking then also despatched, by his own 'rescuers'.
This world is a mad mad place....
If you repeat a lie often enough, eventually it becomes Israel
If they were Muslim British soldiers with duel nationality? Not so sure. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not so sure.
20:10 this is perhaps the most profound point. As an American I want the aid were sending to Israel to be redirected to Ukraine. Israel has lost the plot on a "just cause" Meanwhile Ukraine still needs all of our help
But Israel is vital for control of the trade through the Suez channel. It's not aid it's an investment.
yet to meet or hear from an honest, logical or a Rational Zionist or Zionist supporter.
Wh!te Is precious. Lets just call it what it is.
Thank you so much for bringing up these finer points we all are wondering about!
Any one know how much money the war machine industry has made since it all started and that’s around the world?
Waiting for him to say "Y y y y y yeh b b b but Israel has a right to defend itself" like he always does. 1:17:32 and there it
The oppressed Palestinians have the right to defend themselves against the occupation/occupier..
I was thinking .. when can we be allowed to say that Palestinians have the right to defend themselves too?
No report will be released soon
How would any aid workers want to return to the territory this was a vital blow to ever increasing need of aid unfortunately the media is not showing what we can see in social media with kids starving to death everyday and doctors are reporting tiny sizes of babies being born it’s so sad British government is still sending military arms we need to part ways to this war the human suffering is just too much and further to having the whole infrastructure destroyed will have a dire result
Our political class are morally bankrupt

I would like the government to stop all arms shipments and military assistance to isreal including facilitating shipments of other countries using our military airbases in the region at the very very very least until a ceasefire has been reached and isreal has started to adhere and respect international law.
UK imports more military gear from Israel than the other way round.
Have ANY IDF soldiers become casualties during the invasion? Aside from the group that blew themselves up.
Excellent question! You are spot on 😂😂😂😂
probably yes... but this is about the huge number of deaths among non-combatants.... as it has been for months now
650 + IDF have been killed
If I give a break to the Brits who support "finish them all" mission of IDF to people who live on their land, then I will have to start look into why Germam citizens thought easy of the then on-going Holocaust.
But I won't.
They are deliberately targeted!
IDF don’t care inc our leaders who been supporting Israel they must face the law of land
It’s so simple to understand why people haven’t taken so much notice. It’s because we aren’t forced to hear the bombs drop and if we want to not see it we can switch the channel or switch off your devices.

The MAIN power source of Israel could be .......The voting power of evangelicals in America is significant, as they are considered one of the most powerful voting blocs in the country. While it's difficult to quantify their total votes, white evangelicals have been particularly influential in shaping political outcomes, especially in the Republican Party. Their mobilization and turnout can have a substantial impact on elections[^1][^2][^3][^4][^5]. For specific numbers, it would require looking at election data and voter surveys to get an accurate count of votes. Estimates suggest that evangelicals comprise a significant portion of the U.S. population. According to Wheaton College's Institute for the Study of American Evangelicals, about 30 to 35% of the U.S. population, which translates to approximately 90 to 100 million people, can be considered evangelical. This includes both those who regularly attend church and "cultural evangelicals" who identify with evangelicalism but may not attend church regularly[^1]
