cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/32332431

Generated Summary below:

Main Topic: The video discusses the outrage and media firestorm surrounding Bobby Vylan's chants of "Death to the IDF" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" at Glastonbury, contrasting it with the comparatively muted response to the alleged atrocities committed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) against Palestinians.

Key Points:

  • Double Standard: The speaker argues that there's a stark contrast between the condemnation of Vylan's chants and the lack of outrage over alleged IDF actions, including the killing of unarmed civilians seeking humanitarian aid.
  • IDF Actions: The video cites a report from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz detailing alleged orders for IDF soldiers to deliberately shoot at unarmed Palestinians near food distribution sites. It also lists a series of alleged war crimes committed by the IDF.
  • "From the River to the Sea": The speaker defends the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that for many, it represents a call for equal rights for all Palestinians living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, not the eradication of Israel.
  • Criminal Investigations: The speaker criticizes the criminal investigations launched against Bobby Vylan and the Irish band Kneecap for their pro-Palestinian stances, while those who arm the IDF are not investigated.
  • Misrepresentation: The speaker accuses media outlets of misrepresenting Vylan's chants, falsely claiming he called for the death of Israelis, rather than the IDF.
  • Anti-Semitism: The speaker argues that conflating Jewish people with the actions of the IDF is a form of anti-Semitism.
  • Irony: The speaker points out the irony that those condemning Vylan for calling for the death of the IDF are the same ones supporting policies that lead to the deaths of IDF soldiers.

Highlights:

  • The speaker emphasizes the alleged hypocrisy of Western media and politicians in condemning chants against the IDF while downplaying or ignoring alleged IDF atrocities.
  • The video presents a strong defense of the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that it is not inherently anti-Semitic.
  • The speaker predicts that those complicit in the alleged genocide will eventually be held accountable.

Generated Summary:

Main Topic:

The possibility of peace in the Middle East, specifically between Israel and Palestine, and the challenges in achieving it.

Key Points:

  • Differing Perspectives: Israelis often view the conflict as an act of war for their survival, while others see it as a genocide against Palestinians.
  • Cycle of Hatred: It's difficult to avoid hatred when witnessing violence, but hatred perpetuates the conflict.
  • Peace Deals: Peace deals are possible, citing the example of Israel and Egypt, but they require negotiation with enemies.
  • Palestinian Perspective: Palestinians feel they have nothing and are fighting for their survival due to occupation.
  • External Influence: Iran and other countries are financially and militarily involved, potentially stoking the conflict.
  • Distrust: A major obstacle is the deep-seated distrust between both sides, making it difficult to believe in the possibility of lasting peace.
  • Accountability: Accountability for past actions is necessary for reconciliation, similar to the Nuremberg trials.
  • Economic Factors: Improving economic conditions can help reduce hatred and promote peace, as seen in the example of Turkey and Bulgaria.
  • Need for Trust: Peace requires some degree of trust, and the alternative of continued occupation leads to more hatred and instability.
  • Role of Religion: Religious extremism on both sides fuels the conflict, with some radical groups desiring greater Israel or a purely Muslim Holy Land.
  • Christian Zionism: The influence of Christian Zionists in America, who believe Jews must control the Holy Land for Jesus' return, is also discussed.
  • Non-Violence: The importance of non-violence and civil disobedience, as exemplified by the Civil Rights Movement, is highlighted as a path to progress.
  • Arab Coalition: The possibility of an Arab coalition running Gaza to prevent terrorist activity and rebuild the region is presented as a potential solution.
  • The Wall: The idea of building a wall to separate Israel and Palestine is discussed as a way to stop the violence.

Highlights:

  • The discussion about whether it's racist to assume Palestinians can't control themselves.
  • The analogy of the Cyprus situation, where a wall was built after conflict to separate Turkish and Greek populations, leading to peace.
  • The suggestion that Israel should make the West Bank a "Palestinian paradise" to demonstrate the potential for a peaceful and prosperous Palestinian state.
  • The historical example of the Ottoman Empire taking in Jews during the Spanish Inquisition.
  • The comparison of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to the American Civil Rights Movement, emphasizing the need for non-violence and the rejection of violence within the movement.

Anthony Devon Griffin (born: August 29, 1994 [age 26]), better known online as LongBeachGriffy, is an American YouTuber who uploads short, comedy videos rooted in relatable observational humor. He is currently living in Long Beach, California.

 

U.K. punk duo Bob Vylan released a statement on Tuesday morning responding to the controversy surrounding their Glastonbury performance over the weekend, in which they led chants of “Death to the IDF” and “Free Palestine.”

“We are not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people,” they said in a post on social media. “We are for the dismantling of a violent military machine. A machine whose own soldiers were told to use ‘unnecessary lethal force’ against innocent civilians waiting for aid. A machine that has destroyed much of Gaza.”

“Video footage and audio from Bob Vylan and Kneecap’s performances at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday has been reviewed,” the Avon and Somerset police revealed in a Monday statement. “Following the completion of that assessment process we have decided further enquiries are required and a criminal investigation is now being undertaken.”^[[1] https://archive.ph/pCKQp]

NOT THE FIRST. NOT THE LAST.

TODAY, A GOOD MANY PEOPLE WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE A PUNK BAND IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT TO WORLD PEACE. LAST WEEK IT WAS A PALESTINE PRESSURE GROUP, THE WEEK BEFORE THAT IT WAS ANOTHER BAND.

WE ARE NOT FOR THE DEATH OF JEWS, ARABS OR ANY OTHER RACE OR GRO UP OF PEOPLE. WE ARE FOR THE DISMANTLING OF A VIOLENT MILITARY MACHINE. A MACHINE WHOSE OWN SOLDIERS WERE TOLD TO USE 'UNNECESSARY LETHAL FORCE' AGAINST INNOCENT CIVILIANS WAITING FOR AID. A MACHINE THAT HAS DESTROYED MUCH OF GAZA.

WE, LIKE THOSE IN THE SPOTLIGHT BEFORE US, ARE NOT THE STORY. WE ARE A DISTRACTION FROM THE STORY. AND WHATEVER SANCTIONS WE RECEIVE WILL BE A DISTRACTION.

THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T WANT US TO ASK WHY THEY REMAIN SILENT IN THE FACE OF THIS ATROCITY? TO ASK WHY THEY AREN'T DOING MORE TO STOP THE KILLING? TO FEED THE STARVING?

THE MORE TIME THEY TALK ABOUT BOB VYLAN, THE LESS TIME THEY SPEND ANSWERING FOR THEIR CRIMINAL INACTION.

WE ARE BEING TARGETED FOR SPEAKING UP. WE ARE NOT THE FIRST. WE WILL NOT BE THE LAST. AND IF YOU CARE FOR THE SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH, WE URGE YOU TO SPEAK UP, TOO.

FREE PALESTINE.

  2. 29:38.750 - 30:05.383 Interaction Reminder

Generated Summary:

Main Topic: The Supreme Court's recent ruling on the power of federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions, specifically in the context of immigration and birthright citizenship.

Key Points:

  • The Issue: The Supreme Court addressed whether federal district court judges have the authority to issue injunctions that apply nationwide, rather than only to the specific parties in the case before them.
  • Background: Federal judges have increasingly issued nationwide injunctions, particularly in response to Trump administration policies. This has become a point of contention.
  • The Ruling: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that district court judges generally do not have the power to issue universal nationwide injunctions. Their power is limited to providing relief to the parties directly involved in the case.
  • Case or Controversy Clause: The ruling is rooted in Article 3, Section 2 of the Constitution, which defines judicial power as extending to "cases" and "controversies." Courts are meant to resolve specific disputes brought before them, not to issue broad pronouncements on the legality of government actions in the abstract.
  • Checks and Balances: The discussion emphasizes the importance of checks and balances between the three branches of government (executive, legislative, and judicial). The ruling is seen as a check on the power of the judiciary.
  • Amy Coney Barrett's Opinion: Amy Coney Barrett, who wrote the majority opinion, argued that federal courts should not exceed their power and that concerns about an "imperial presidency" should not lead to an "imperial judiciary."

Highlights:

  • The video explains the difference between injunctions that apply to specific plaintiffs and those that apply nationwide.
  • It clarifies that the Supreme Court did not rule on the merits of birthright citizenship in this particular case, only on the scope of federal court injunction power.
  • The video provides historical context, noting that nationwide injunctions have become more frequent in recent years.
  • The speaker discusses the potential for judicial overreach when individual district court judges can effectively dictate policy for the entire country.
  • The speaker praises Amy Coney Barrett as a judge who follows legal principles rather than partisan lines.

cluster munitions

The text of the convention states that these weapons “kill or maim civilians, including women and children, obstruct economic and social development… impede post-conflict rehabilitation and reconstruction (and) delay or prevent the return of refugees and internally displaced persons… for many years after use.”

However, Iran, Israel, Russia, Ukraine and the United States have not joined the treaty. While the US halted production in 2008 and converted many stockpiles, it has maintained the right to deploy such munitions in certain conflict scenarios.

In 2023, after prolonged debate, the US transferred cluster artillery shells to Ukraine for use against Russian forces, as Kyiv accused Moscow of deploying similar weapons in the ongoing conflict.^[[1] https://www.firstpost.com/explainers/iran-cluster-munitions-israel-attack-explained-danger-weapons-13898795.html]

Following that logic, it means you were watching him in 2020, when he first interviewed Sanders? Around this time, Joe said he was voting for Bernie Sanders.

Anyway...

All is well, peace.

Here is a related video on Joe Rogan. I posted it on this community two days ago.

It gives background on Bernie Sanders first appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience.

Why Joe Rogan Ditched the Left – And What It Means for America [15:07 | NOV 13 2024 | 51-49 with James Li]

https://lemmy.world/post/31898144

Yes, Joe Rogan was for Bernie Sanders in 2020.

Again, the video explains it in simple terms.

I do have a community for his show.

I only post viral or interesting interviews that I think people should watch and not be afraid to listen to.

To restate, I am not afraid to listen to and learn from non-status quo sources or dissidents.

Feel free to see my communities and videos I share.

I try to avoid self-built echo chambers and self-censorship, as we all should strive to achieve.

Tanks are cool and all, but I like and have experience with rockets.

All is well, peace.

And the guy pushed COVID misinformation, among other conspiracy theories, to millions of his followers. Guy is no better than the propaganda machine he claims to be against.

The video went over the 'misinformation' smear by the MSM.

Putting aside conspiracy and conspiracy theories.

Again, it is political tribalism.

Divide and conquer strategies work to continue to divide the working class.

In this case, it was another of the "are you for or against [insert boogeyman]" (Joe Rogan/COVID restrictions).

[–] jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.world -2 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Makes me wonder if he ever supported “the left.”

Well, the video explains how Rogan was on 'the left' to a degree (when he supported Bernie's populist policies).

The mainstream media propaganda works; that is why they spend so much on media and politics.

Divide and conquer: the working class is always being divided with political tribalism; another example would be the duopoly.

Joe Rogan advocated for working-class issues, nowhere near what Bernie Sanders spiel is, but they were populist issues.

Now, we know the Bernie Sanders experiment failed, or he only wanted to go so far, similar to Justice Democrats.

It seems to be just the start.

Israel and the United States started this conflict; we will see if Iran can finish it.

No one is pretending here.

They are all capitalist and imperialist governments, but the United States has relied on forever wars to enrich our oligarchs and fund mass murder.

Military leaks and listening to independent journalists can help enlighten us all.

Soft versus hard imperialism—there is a difference.

The Western regimes are the aggressors and the cause of escalation, United States foreign policy being the major player.

The United States took over this role after the British Empire declined in WWII.
