Why is Israel invading Rafah? Husam Zomlot speaks to LBC

- A Gaza ceasefire would be possible tomorrow if Hamas freed Israeli hostages, US president Joe Biden has said.
Speaking at a fundraiser near Seattle on Saturday, Mr Biden said: "There would be a ceasefire tomorrow if Hamas would release the hostages.
"Israel said it’s up to Hamas, if they wanted to do it, we could end it tomorrow. And the ceasefire would begin tomorrow."
His remarks came after the IDF said it is expanding its operation and moving into an area in northern Gaza where Hamas has regrouped.
Amidst all of this, Lewis Goodall was joined by Palestine's ambassador to the UK, Husam Zomlot, to discuss the ongoings.

Bring back Sangita we’re tired of these so called journalists
You mean "so called journalist".....Sangita, the very best and they sacked her for asking an Israeli some straight questions! Duh
I really rate Sangita, she persevered and put candid questions to the Israeli Spokesman, who blatantly attempted to worm his way out of being interviewed.
@@user-dd2ew4fr8sthis reporter is SCARED of the truth..
HOW can this person possibly be a journalist??????
i couldnt agree more
Why is it okay to be this dismissive and argumentive with a Palestinian spokesperson but do it with an Israeli spokesperson and your journalists get sacked?
Exactly. Their is am implicit racism in the way western journalists treat their guests which is plainly manifest
The arrogance and inanity of Lewis! Breathtaking....
Indeed. The hypocrisy and bias in favour of Israel by LBC is absolutely naueating. The direct influence that Israel has over institutions in the United Kingdom of Israel is appalling. It's been this way for so many years now. I wish we could have a government that cuts ties with the apartheid state of Israel. Of course the establishment and it's client media has made certain that no-one critical of Israel can ever get into number 10.
It's the color of their skin.
Follow the money
Husam speaks very clearly and eloquently. The host attempting to discredit/re-direct is an injustice to Husam and his people.
Lewis is not only trying to keep his job, he’s going for a promotion. This is shameful journalism if that’s even what you want to try to call it Lewis.
Husam Zomlot is the epitome of what an Ambassador should be. What a man!
😂😂😂😂
Agreed. He is great. Ignore these insecure ppl posting laughing emojis.
Such an eloquent man . .
If you mean an evil liar, then agreed
He's a man of values and ethics.
Where is Sangita, why are we being gaslighted by LBC? Lewis is playing the fool.

They let Samgita go and let this puppet to work?
Shame on you LBC!!
LBC Does not deserve Sangita. I've boycotted LBC and now use independent media. The lbc staff will keep quiet because they will face the same consequence.
Bye.
hmm. I have unsubscribed but exactly how are you boycotting if you have placed a comment here?
Haven't you guys been boycotting for like a month now? So many of the cult is still here crying in the comments of every video and their stats are still in the green.
Absolutely disgusting journalism by Lewis Goodall. Bring back Sangita. Shame on LBC.
Thank you for helping me not to continue listening
Criticised the Israeli official and then gets thrown off the station- shame on LBC!
Lewis obviously does not want to follow Sangita. So as to follow the Propaganda line.
Oh, he wasn't presenting the Hamas line, you mean? He was actually being a journalist for a change.
@@jacobcohen9205 "Being a journalist" == "presenting the Israeli line, that has received no external independent journalistic verification, as opposed to the Hamas line, that has been verified extensively by independent journalists, and whose numbers _are used by the Israeli government themselves_ as part of their calculations".
You're not convincing anyone, sorry to tell ya ;)

The British government's position is appalling.
The British government supports the West. An appalling position would be to support the other side.
What happened to Lewis? Has he always been this way? Or is he scared of losing his job like Sangita. It’s times like this you see who has real journalistic integrity. Bring back Sangita!!!!
Probably got a surprise donation to his bank account from wink wink
Well done, MR zomlot. Keep pulling these hypocrites up for their double standards
Its like watching piers morgan asking the same question in a million different ways.......

Bye bye.
Lots have started listening now she's gone. Awful woman.
Bye.
@@facehugger3 you know what you can do to
Tremendous respect for the Palestinian spokesperson. Not so much for the interviewer who-7 months on-continues to provide the Israeli narrative that history began on the 7th of October. He interrupts his guest to say “well, that’s just history”. Okay. Do wen then erase WW2 history which gave the impetus to the creation of Israel?
Well the ambassodor went back 107 years. As Lewis rightly said, you always go back and pick a moment that fits your agenda.
@@andrewcarson5850 but the whole Israeli/Palestinian conflict is based on the occupation and land theft! It's the core of the conflict!
@@andrewcarson5850 Also true of picking a point in time 2000 years ago to justify the taking of land. Go back further if you wish and you find all sorts of people living in those e lands. Personally I think that sort of claim a load of codswallop. But when it's within peoples living memory? Debatable.
@@haxstir Indeed, neither arguments are remotely valid, thank you for supporting my point.
@@andrewcarson5850 you don't seem to be able to read. I said within living memory it may be significant or debatable. What's your point?
Notice with lbc and even the likes of piers etc..when an israeli spokesperson talks..they give them time and may even allow them a monologue but when they talking to someone on plaestinian side...before the person even finishes half their sentence..they quick to interject. Let them speak for godsake! Its as if their scared to hear the other side cause it will go against the main narrative being pushed.
Ambassador is always such an eloquent speaker
Seriously Lewis needs to educate himself 🤦♂️

Yeah, on LBC, so-called journalists like this guy, Dale, Shelagh, Ferrari, or Tom never dare to ask tough questions to an ISR representative. They shut up and behave like adoring fanboys, allowing ISR officials to say whatever they want, including untrue and proven untrue statements, unchallenged and undisturbed. You're upset because people are noticing and paying attention to how LBC conducts interviews, which are always done from the perspective of ISR.

Yup, can't start a war then cry when you lose.

Lewis you have embarrassed and diminished yourself. It is plain to see why Sanghita Myska was dismissed. I will no longer be watching the news agents.
“I’m not minimising it” - that’s all you did, Lewis - minimize everything but “hamas Hamas Hamas”. Ridiculous
Lewis repeating Netanyahu talking points
He's only trying to keep his job!
So?
Hamas was born out of the conflict, so why does no journalist want to talk about the actual conflict. It's always Hamas and October 7th.
All the LBC hosts got the memo: you know what to say to keep your job and avoid going on gardening leave.
You are not immune to propaganda.
Bravo Lewis, well done, you are firmly on the wrong side of history 👏
What a fool
love this comment
Yikes!!! He was my hero and Lewis has now become a regular non-thinking puppet. Gross.
Maybe he is on the payroll
Proper puppet. 🫡🇧🇩🇵🇸
That's an insult to puppets, Mate! I absolutely love the Muppet Show:)
he's a paid up establishment centrist melt that masquerades as some kind of left rebel.
Homes destoyed, land taken, children killed, segregation and prejudice, and what? It's Hamas fault. I'm no defender of Hamas by a long way but I see a people trying to fight for their rights and I see a state trying to get rid of them in one way or another. I don't care that they are Muslim, or anything else for that matter. They are human beings and need to be treated as such. The moment you argue that because the Palestininans are this or that then you've lost the moral argument. And the same goes for the Israeli population. They might be now in the majority a right wing population but at the same time they need to be respected as human beings.
Well done Mr Zomlot. It must be exhausting and frustrating, when journalists ask questions, but choose not listen to the answers.
Tragic interview .. Lewis getting paid again by the Israeli lobby 🙄
If you say Hamas three times in a mirror, you can get away with doing ANYTHING.
You can feel the pain in the ambassador's voice and the callousness in the journalist's
And I thought Lewis was an upstanding and morally correct man. How wrong I was !!!
If there was no occupation there will be no Hama's educate yourself Lewis...... Free Palestine ❤❤❤
Yes there would.

I don’t find this Hamas argument, convincing they literally created and propped up and funded Hamas like you can’t complain about your own creation and then punish an entire population for it
Are Palestinians allowed to defend themselves? If Hamas is destroyed the Palestinian cause is finished: don’t expect the US or Europe to help create a Palestinian state.

Mr. Husam Zomlot seems to be one of the most decent people in the world, how on earth he keeps his calm composure with such a low grade and uninformed journalist as this I do not know.
I have so much admiration for Mr. Zomlot, has this journalist been living in a sealed cardboard box all his life ?

@@palerider955caring about the killing of children is a basic human instinct, regardless of race. You clearly lack it.
If Lewis Goodall had lived his life as the Palestinians do I’m sure he’d think differently.
There would never have been any attack from Hamas if there was no occupation and inhumane treatment of the Palestinian people for over 70 years.
I just can’t understand how people can’t see this!
DO I CONDEMN HAMAS ? Only in the same way I would condemn the French Resistance for the way they opposed their brutal occupiers! History has judged the French people as Heroes.
So how do you explain Arab Muslim massacres on Jews in israel/Palestine before 1948 in the 1900's and 1800s???? You are ignorant of history!!!
70 years? What has been occupied for 70 years exactly?
Have you heard of UN Resolution 181?
Do you know who occupied Gaza and the West Bank before Israel gained control over those areas?
Is what happened on October 7 considered legitimate resistance in your eyes?

The host has no historical perspective

Lewis lost his way a bit 🤷♂️
Wow Lewis ...... that was pathetic
'Because of history' - what a facile, crass comment by Goodall! Imagine if somebody dismissively said antisemitism only carries such stigma in Germany 'because of history'.
Missing Sangita, a woman of empathy and sincerity. Often tuned into her show. Can't help but think she has been 'pensioned' off and made to sign a gagging order. Her silence is deafening.
I think we the people need proper journalism, we should setup an independent publicly owned media station that we all control through voting. I’m sick of these clown agencies like lbc, bbc, cnn etc
Husam zamlot always speak the truth. FREE PALASTINE 🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪
He is evil
No such place as palastine
What is Palestine this is not a state never been 😂
Dr Husan Zomlot is an amazing ambassador. How he keeps his patience with the pathetic journalists is beyond me.
You need patience to lie the way he does
He dominates the conversation with stock talking points. It might sound great, in the same way a speech does, but as an ambassador it undermines his function. It's not bringing anyone over who isn't already. His arguments are already known so simply repeating history isn't going to convince anyone to back your cause (beyond the arms length sympathy). And what is the cause? Because he mixes in cessation of current hostilities (immediately important) with redress of historical events from 100 years ago. That is a massive failure. He got baited by the journalist who was just following a paymaster script. So it should have been more than predictable but he still tripped up.
7:50 Well, you just called the ambassador Mr Hamas..... No doubt about your bias, we know what you think, all Palestinians are Hamas.... Well done, LBC! This is what you get without Sangita
7.50 spot on they are all the same.
Isn't it a bizarre coincidence that suddenly a rocket attack comes from Rafah to justify the invasion of a civilian centre?
In 2018 Israeli soldiers shot over 6,000 Palestinians. In many cases they were shot with illegal expanding ammunition. So, did the present iteration of this problem begin on 7th October 2023 (1,200 casualties) or March/Dec 2018 (6,000 casualties) Discus ??
