TEHRAN (FNA)- Journalist and activist Kevin Barrett says the “Nation State Law” proved the fact that the regime in Tel Aviv does not represent all the citizens, and the non-Jews “are considered subhuman vermin fit only to be subjugated, expelled, or exterminated”.
Kevin Barrett, in an exclusive interview with FNA, said that such ideas supported by the likes of Ze'ev Jabotinsky, who were once considered extremist, are “now the nearly unanimous view of the Jewish population of Zionist-occupied Palestine.” He further added that “such a rabidly genocidal apartheid state is unlikely to be tolerated by the region, or the world, for very long.”
Dr Kevin Barrett is a journalist, radio host, activist and a former university lecturer. He is a member of the Scientific Panel for the Investigation of 9/11 (SPINE) and a founding member of the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance (MUJCA), established in 2004 with the stated aim of improving "interfaith dialogue, coexistence, and understanding" in light of the events of 9/11.
FNA has conducted an interview with Kevin Barrett about Israel’s brutal crackdown on Palestinian protesters, the Israeli legislation known as the Nation State Law and also Trump’s so-called "deal of the century”.
Below you will find the full text of the interview.
Q: It seems that killing scores of people and maiming thousands more over the past several months isn't an indication of what Israel thinks is enough to keep Gaza in check. Do you think Israel’s deadly clamp down on Palestinian protesters is going to end anytime soon?
A: Israel’s treatment of the people of Gaza will continue to worsen, for two overriding reasons. First, the Jewish majority in Israel is becoming increasingly extremist and genocidal. A few decades ago, the Likud party, representing the heirs of Jabotinsky, was a fringe movement. Today it is considered centrist. Polls show that Isreali Jews (unlike Israeli Arabs) almost unanimously approve of the horrendous periodic massacres of the people of Gaza. They approve of raining white phosphorous on the heads of women and children. They approve of bombing ambulances and hospitals and schools and UN facilities and blowing innocent children, women, and men to pieces. They love this insane cruelty — perpetrated against helpless inmates of the world’s largest open-air concentration camp — so much that whenever Israel decides to “mow the lawn” and stage another mass slaughter, Jewish Israelis throw huge barbecue parties on hilltops overlooking the carnage and cheer the ongoing massacres.
So the horror will continue because it is popular politically. The other factor driving it is strategic desperation. The Zionists, despite their murderous fanaticism and their domination of global media and the world’s biggest financial centers, have been unable to quell Palestinian resistance. Nor have they been able to prevent the world from gradually learning the truth and siding with the Palestinians. And they cannot change the demographic factors that give
Palestinians, and the other Arabs and Muslims in the region, a long-term advantage. So they know, deep down inside, that their project is doomed. For that reason, driven by deep-seated unconscious desperation, they lash out viciously like cornered rabid rats.
Q: It’s been a year since the start of the protests known as the ‘Great March of Return.’ What do you think the march has accomplished so far?
A: The Great March of Return has sent the world a loud and clear message: Palestinian resistance lives! The Zionist-dominated global media has done its best to obscure the justice of the Palestinian assertion of the Right of Return. But gradually the world is coming to understand the truth about the Palestinian Holocaust of 1948 and the slow-motion holocaust ongoing ever since. Today, even a small but growing segment of the global Jewish population supports a one-state solution which would necessarily involve an acceptance of the principle of Right of Return. The Great March is a leading factor pushing this once-marginal (in the West) idea into the mainstream. And the more brutal the Zionist response, the more the world sees the truth about Zionist oppression and tyranny.
Q: How do you think the US and some Arab states are complicit in crimes against the Palestinians especially in light with the discreet links between Israel and Saudi Arabia and other Persian Gulf states?
A: Trump and the corrupt [Persian] Gulf dictators, along with their partner in crime al-Sisi, are enslaved to Zionist money-power. Zionists dominate the Western segment of the global financial system. So corrupt individuals and nations who want to be players in that system, and profit from it, are forced to obey Zionist orders, and become complicit in Zionist crimes.
Q: In July 2018, the so-called nation state law was adopted by Israeli Knesset. What do you think the legislation shows about the nature of the regime in Tel Aviv?
A: The nation state law merely stated the truth: Zionist “Israel” is an apartheid state. It does not represent all its citizens, just the Jewish ones. The others are considered subhuman vermin fit only to be subjugated, expelled, or exterminated. This view, once considered extremist when espoused by the likes of Jabotinsky, is now the nearly unanimous view of the Jewish population of Zionist-occupied Palestine. Such a rabidly genocidal apartheid state is unlikely to be tolerated by the region, or the world, for very long.
Q: Many believe that the continuing illegal Israeli settlement activities have hammered nail after nail into the coffin of a diplomatic solution. What do you think about that?
A: Israeli settlements have doomed the two-state solution. Zionist Israel could have made itself sustainable through that two-state solution. But by rejecting the prospect of peace held out by Arafat and other Palestinians who deluded themselves into believing that the Zionists had good intentions and were capable of making and living up to an agreement, the Zionists have dug their own grave and sealed the fate of their peculiar experiment.
Q: The current administration in the US has been boasting about their new plan for Palestine and even calling it the deal of the century. What do you think would be in the new deal for the Palestinians?
A: The so called Kushner peace plan is a joke. Kushner is from an organized crime family. He is a thug and a rabid Zionist. The idea that such a person could play a role in any peace process is beyond absurd.
The only new deal for Palestinians will come when the genocidal Zionist experiment finally implodes. Not just Palestinians, but also everyone who cares about justice, should work assiduously toward hastening that implosion.
