"DISGUSTING!" Gaza Flotilla Detainees on Israel 'Abuse' | Norman Finkelstein on 'Nazi' Post

The political fallout from the war with Iran is creating some unlikely alliances. Figures as different as Tucker Carlson, Mehdi Hasan, Megyn Kelly and Cenk Uygur are all making strikingly similar arguments: that Donald Trump campaigned against foreign wars only to lead the United States into one. Many also believe Benjamin Netanyahu's government played a decisive role in the push for military action against Iran and have come under fierce criticism for saying so. Meanwhile, fresh scrutiny is falling on Israel's treatment of Palestinian detainees. Following allegations of abuse in Israeli custody and renewed controversy surrounding National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, a growing debate is emerging over whether one of Israel's most polarising politicians is a rogue actor or a reflection of something deeper within a country hardened by decades of conflict. Piers Morgan is joined by political scientist and activist Norman Finkelstein, former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center Joe Kent, Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon, Gaza flotilla detainees Catriona Graham and Alex Colston, and former Ben-Gvir adviser Yishai Fleisher. 00:00 Introduction 02:22 Norman Finkelstein and Joe Kent debate begins 02:40 Joe Kent on Norman Finkelstein’s comments and Israel's influence over the US 12:50 Norman Finkelstein on the fragmented right wing in the US 17:00 Joe Kent on Israel’s influence over the US 23:00 Norman Finkelstein on Piers’s deviation on Israel and Hamas 26:29 Norman Finkelstein’s comments on October 7 and calling Israelis ‘Nazis’ 38:30 Piers Morgan’s monologue on the treatment of Gaza flotilla detainees 40:00 Catriona Graham discusses being detained ‘assaulted’ by Israelis 42:45 Are Israeli forces capable of committing sexual crimes against detainees? 46:15 Yishai Fleischer and Alex Colston join 46:45 Yishai Fleischer labels the ‘abuse’ narrative as ‘fraudulent’ 48:54 Yishai reacts to ‘police action’ against Catriona 52:14 Flotilla detainee Alex Colston responds to Yishai’s comments 55:20 Yishai responds to Alex; “a wolf in sheep’s clothing” 01:03:57 Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon joins 01:05:10 Danny Danon on the war with Iran 01:09:32 Danny Danon on Israel sexual abuse accusations 01:11:22 Ben Gvir posting a video abusing young female flotilla detainee Learn more about your ad choices.
