VIDEO: MEHDI HASAN INTERVIEW WITH ISRAELI DIPLOMAT DANNY AYALON ON FAMINE IN GAZA 26AUG25


Listen to Mehdi Hasan of Zeteo challenge Israeli diplomat Danny Ayalon on the famine in Gaza created by Israel if this video. In one of Zeteo’s most heated back-and-forth interviews yet, Mehdi presses former Israeli ambassador to the US Danny Ayalon on how on earth he can possibly try and defend Israel’s heinous actions in Gaza. Ayalon previously served in his country’s government for over a decade, including as Israel’s deputy foreign minister during Benjamin Netanyahu’s second term. Since his departure from government, Ayalon has been a staunch supporter of Israel’s military actions, especially in the wake of Oct. 7, 2023. The conversation becomes especially contentious when Mehdi points to the IPC’s declaration of famine in Gaza City. Ayalon goes as far as to deny their reporting and even accuse Mehdi of trying to create a “one-sided story.”

ISRAELI fascist politicians and military officers continue their attempts to justify their genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity in Gaza and the West Bank and East Jerusalem by using that age old tactic of repeating lies, deception, manipulation and neo-nazi propaganda just like hitler and his third reich did in the 1930's and 1940's. There is famine in Gaza. Israel is committing genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity on Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Every AMERICAN politician who continues to vote against stopping U.S. military aid to Israel and who continues to support the Israeli politicians and military officers who authorize Israeli genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza and the West Bank and East Jerusalem has Palestinian blood on their hands. Please e mail your representative and senators demanding they stop U.S. weapons and ammo shipments to Israel until they end their campaigns of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza and the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Please boycott all products and services from Israel. My e mails are at the end of this post.

SPACEWALKERS WRAP UP COVID-19 RESEARCH AND VACCINATION CENTER INSTALLATIONS 1FEB21





ANOTHER example of the waste of money the iss and our involvement with it is. What have the billions of dollars spent on the iss brought us. Cures for cancer, diabetes, alzheimer's, covid-19? Anyone? What have the billions of dollars brought to the struggle with climate change, famine, homelessness? Again, anyone???? Search on the nasa site if you want to read the article, I will not post nasa propaganda here...

STEPPING UP AID AS FOOD CRISIS WORSENS
"As a Somali myself, I can say that if MSF was not here, we would be like a boat that has run out of fuel in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Without MSF's help, thousands would have died."
– Dr. Hussein Sheikh Qassim, MSF Medical Coordinator, Marere, Somalia
Dear Friend,
I wanted you to see the following first-hand account of our lifesaving work in one hospital in Marere, Somalia, where Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is the only source of emergency medical care for hundreds of children suffering from severe malnutrition.
Our response to the drought in Somalia, Kenya, and Ethiopia is made possible by people like you. Please consider making a donation today to support our work in those and 60 other countries around the world.
On behalf of our field staff and our patients around the world, thank you.
Sincerely,

Sophie Delaunay, Executive Director

UPDATE FROM THE FIELD: HORN OF AFRICA FOOD CRISIS
Dr. Hussein Sheikh Qassim is the Medical Coordinator at the Doctors Without Borders hospital in Marere, Somalia. On July 15, he was reached on the phone and gave the following report about the situation in the area:
"In Marere, the situation is extremely dire. This is the only hospital in this part of Somalia. There are not any other clinics, not even mobile clinics, anywhere near here. People are coming here from all over the country. Word spreads.
Recently, the numbers have gone through the roof. Even on our quiet days, we are seeing twice as many people as we did on busy days before the drought. The hospital is absolutely full of patients. Some are sick, others just need something to eat. The malnutrition ward is beyond full of young children, most of them too weak even to eat, so we have to feed them through tubes.
There is an ongoing civil war in many parts of the country, with some towns and villages changing hands on a daily basis. These are dangerous areas and it is not safe to travel. But still the people come.
Those who are lucky and are still on their feet are admitted as outpatients – 300 yesterday, 400 last Friday. But lots of children have to go straight to the inpatient feeding center. It's only lunchtime, and we've already admitted 151 children today.
Recently, a mother and her husband brought us a two-year-old boy named Yusuf. He was nothing more than bones and skin. He was too weak even to breathe. The family were pastoralists and all their animals had died. They told me the child had diarrhea and couldn't eat. He was in such a bad way you had to listen to his heartbeat through a stethoscope to tell he was still alive. His parents had given up on him. They believed he had no chance of survival. The father went to look after the other children while we convinced the mother not to give up.
We put the child in our intensive care unit where we resuscitated him for two hours, until finally he opened his eyes. Then we fed him specialized milk and food through a tube. After 24 hours he started moving his limbs. It was at that moment that his mother's face suddenly lit up. You could see that she had hope again.
After one week, Yusuf didn't need to be fed through a tube any longer. He could drink milk on his own, and he could say, 'Mum,' and smile back if you called his name. Within 10 days, his weight had more than tripled.
After three weeks in our hospital, Yusuf was playing around with the other children. His father came to collect him and was beyond happiness. He didn't stop thanking MSF until he'd left the hospital.
As a Somali myself, I can say that if MSF was not here, we would be like a boat that has run out of fuel in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Without MSF's help, thousands would have died. Somalia needs your help now more than at any other time. MSF saves countless lives and, with your help, will continue to save many more. Thank you."
