Ep. 5948 - Darryl Cooper on the Israel-Palestine Conflict - 10/12/23
Darryl Cooper of the MartyrMade Podcast joins Scott to discuss the Hamas attacks, the Israeli response and the Israel-Palestine conflict more broadly. They touch on some of the Israeli military and intelligence failures in the lead-up to the Hamas attacks last Saturday. And they mourn the fact that a lot more death and destruction is all but guaranteed to come from this.
Ramzy Baroud returns to the show to talk about the latest violence in and around Gaza. Baroud explains why, while unfortunate, these developments should not be surprising to anyone who’s been paying attention.
Death row inmate David Paul Hammer, author of Deadly Secrets: Timothy McVeigh and the Oklahoma City Bombing, discusses the mysterious "Major" and "Poindexter" characters that Timothy McVeigh claimed help instigate and advance the Oklahoma City bombing plot, Andreas Strassmeir's role in leading the Aryan Republican Army's military wing, why McVeigh believed that his execution would be faked and therefore didn't want an autopsy, Hammer's claim that FBI agents offered him a life sentence in exchange for holding back his book, the strict limitations on media interviews of death row inmates despite court decisions allowing them, the FBI PATCON plan to infiltrate and discredit right-wing militia movements in the 1990s, the Southern Poverty Law Center's connection to Elohim City informants and why John Does two and three were most likely Richard Guthrie and Michael Brescia.

Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) discusses how American politicians have moved inexorably away from the republic and toward empire (witness the most recent Republican debate); how the Republican base – especially the youngest and oldest members – are developing a healthy skepticism of US foreign policy; and debunking the argument that the US can never “cut and run” because disaster will ensue.

Scott is joined by Jeremy Hammond to talk about the war in Gaza. They discuss Israel’s strategy of making Gaza uninhabitable and look at the relevant history that has led to this moment. They also discuss the proper language to use when talking about the conflict. Hammond argues that what Israel is currently doing meets the definition of a genocide and that people shouldn’t shy away from using that word.

Scott interviews Phil Weiss about the deplorable state of the Democratic Party when it comes to Israel policy. Weiss calls Joe Biden the most pro-Israel candidate of all time, which is somewhat ironic given that he’s running against the most pro-Israel president of all time in Donald Trump. Unlike in the Republican base, where support for Israel enjoys near universal popularity, Weiss says that among Democratic voters support for Israel is actually very controversial. Generally the more establishment wing of the party, represented by candidates like Biden and Harris, is staunchly in favor of Israel, while the younger, more radical voters view Israeli occupation of Palestine as nothing short of a new apartheid. The Party may be able to hang together long enough to defeat President Trump, but Weiss predicts a major clash over this issue in the near future. Weiss feels certain that whenever the party changes its stance on Israel, Harris will be right there pretending like she’s been on board the entire time.
