PALESTINE’S🇵🇸 MANDELA: Marwan Barghouti’s son details HORRIFIC BEATING his father suffered at the hands of Israeli prison guards

‘I haven’t hugged him in more than 23 years, almost 24 years now, because it was a few months before his imprisonment. But on another note, I haven’t seen him in three years.

I used to see him twice a month only until I turned 16. So it was only for the first three years. And then since 2006, I would see him once every two or three years. I haven’t seen him in three years. And none of the family members have seen him in three years.

After October 7th, it’s very important for people to understand what’s been happening inside Palestinian prisons. It’s the other side, or the backyard, of the genocide that is happening inside prisons.

79 Palestinian detainees have been killed inside prisons, either by beating, starvation, medical neglect, and so on. And I think that my father is part of that.

What happened to him is that they sent him to solitary confinement to punish him, even though he had nothing to do with October 7th. But as part of the collective punishment and as part of targeting him as a leader, a representative of the Palestinian people, they sent him to solitary confinement.

He was assaulted at the end of 2023, March of 2024, September of 2024. And then we just heard two weeks ago the scary and very disturbing stories from the released detainees who got exiled to Egypt…

8 prison guards, while he was shackled in his hands and legs, put him on the ground and started kicking and beating him until he lost consciousness.

He passed out for a few hours and regained it after hours when he got to Megiddo Prison. They sent him to the clinic. He had four ribs broken and severe injuries to his head, and he was sent back without any medical treatment to his cell.’

Netanyahu admitted that the leaked footage of the rape of Palestinian detainees by Israeli soldiers at Sde Teiman Prison caused "enormous damage" to Israel's image, calling it "perhaps the most severe propaganda attack" since Israel’s founding.

Netanyahu isn’t horrified by the rape of Palestinians in Israeli prisons, he’s only horrified at the consequences for Israel’s reputation.

This should tell you one thing; Israel will commit every kind of barbarism and cruelty against Palestinians, so long as they feel they can hide it and get away with it.

PALESTINE’S🇵🇸 MANDELA: Marwan Barghouti’s son details EXTRAORDINARY efforts of his father to provide university-level education to Palestinian prisoners, despite torture and solitary confinement

‘The Palestinian detainees said that while my father was recovering, barely recovered from torture, what he did is that he started to teach those prisoners through the window, talking to them, giving them classes from six to eight hours in political science, in history, in Israeli studies, and so on.

Because you need to know something about my father, in Hadarim prison, where he stayed for 18 years out of the 23 years, he started what we call the Light Academy. He sent his lawyer to the head of Jerusalem University and convinced him to give him the ability to give official degrees through sneaking the grades of the detainees while he is teaching them.

And he was a very hard teacher. Seven days a week. He doesn’t take breaks. Eight hours a day. He has a PhD in political science, so he’s eligible to teach. And he used to teach in Jerusalem University. He’s graduated more than 450 Palestinian detainees with bachelor’s degrees, more than 200 with master’s degrees in Israeli studies. He is, of course, fluent in Hebrew, Arabic, and English.

And that’s what he continued, despite all that torture, to try and teach them as good as he can. And they said that he was the one who is encouraging them, who’s lifting their spirit and so on.

And I want to recall one of my father’s favourite quotes when I say “our chains will be broken before we are.”

So I have no doubt that mentally he’s the strongest person I’ve ever known in my life. But at the same time, I’m his son and I am concerned for his life, because it’s not crazy to think that the Israeli government would harm him.’

When Marwan Barghouti was subjected to the farcical Israeli show trial, his son Arab Barghouti, who we interviewed for our latest episode, called out to him.

Marwan Barghouti’s face instantly lit up and he rose to greet his son. An elderly Israeli slapped Arab, and other Israelis tried to attack him for trying to run to hug his father. Arab Barghouti was a 12-year-old child at the time.

Marwan Barghouti’s son: ‘It took 20,000 Palestinian children to be SLAUGHTERED for Western journalists to change their tone on Palestine🇵🇸

‘When I talk to Western journalists in general about Israeli attacks on refugee camps in the occupied West Bank, they say, “Yeah, but they’re attacking terrorists.” No, I don’t think they are. They’re displacing civilians.

And the other thing, why are we calling the IDF an army, and the people that are defending under international law, defending themselves, the terrorists?

So that gives you an idea of the double standards that finally are getting exposed. And it took 20,000 Palestinian children to be slaughtered in front of the whole world for them to start changing their tone when talking about Palestine.’

John Pilger said it best on Western media hypocrisy when it comes to Palestine:

"The very notion of 'two sides' is obscene...it's like people looking up at German bombs during the blitz and saying 'ah but there are 2 sides here.’”

PALESTINE’S🇵🇸 MANDELA: Arab Barghouti, son of the Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti who has been in an Israeli prison for over years, details his father’s rise in the Palestinian resistance to one of its most revered leaders, and what his father stands for.

‘THIS SOIL SPEAKS ARABIC. This is our land…you are thieves, you are stealing from the land. I am the owner of this land, not you. You are thieves.’

A Palestinian man defiantly confronts IDF soldiers and Israeli settlers trying to steal land in the town of Idhna, west of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

The genocidal mentality of Israeli soldiers never changes. Here’s an Israeli soldier speaking to a reporter in occupied Lebanon in 1985:

‘I’m not dealing with human beings [Lebanese]. They are all terrorists and they don't have any human feelings, so l kill them without remorse.’

Reporter: ‘They live here and they’re trying to defend their villages.’

IDF soldier: ‘They know we’re going back to Israel in two months, why do they have to try and kill people?’

Israeli soldiers; always simultaneously genocidal and trying to portray themselves as the victim

Veteran CIA Asset Maria Corina Machado

'Venezuela🇻🇪 has the world’s largest oil reserves and vast natural resources, which can only be unleashed with a government that brings order and is friendly to international investment.’

The US didn’t allow Venezuela to prosper with its nationalised oil, so it crushed PDVSA to stop the profits from oil sales being used to develop the country and further the Bolivarian revolution…

Then after making the economy scream, they send out this CIA Asset and de facto spokesperson for American capitalism to tell the world the benefits of bombing her own country and selling the countries resources to American corporations.

ICYMI: CIA Asset Maria Corina Machado baselessly claims that she has no doubts that Nicolas Maduro is a mastermind behind US election interference.

This de facto spokeswoman for American corporations will say absolutely anything to get Trump to bomb her own country.

The sick state of Israeli society:

Israel’s Channel 14 interviews an Israeli soldier who raped a Palestinian man in prison. He expresses no remorse after the footage of the crime was leaked and instead portrays himself as the victim, calling for the army’s top lawyer who allegedly leaked the video to be interrogated.

Even more bizarrely, the interviewer throws sympathetic questions at him such as ‘what do you require now?’. These are the people the governments of the US, UK, and EU say they share values with.

DICK CHENEY DEAD AT 84:

'Find somebody who says President Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney were guilty of the crimes for which people were hanged at Nuremberg. Instead, what you have is celebration of George Bush'

-Noam Chomsky on Going Underground

Dick Cheney sold the world the lies of WMDs in Iraq, and then profited off of the deaths of millions of Iraqis.

Before becoming Vice President, Cheney was the CEO of Halliburton. After the destruction of Iraq, Halliburton was awarded no-bid federal contracts for reconstruction worth around $39.5 billion.

Halliburton’s stock soared, as did Cheney’s net worth since he still owned a large holding of Halliburton stock.

“I am a Muslim and a democratic socialist, and I refuse to apologise for that.”

-New York’s next Mayor Zohran Mamdani

Donald Trump has already threatened to withhold federal funding for New York, making Mamdani the latest in a long list of socialist leaders that Washington has launched economic warfare against to later claim ‘socialism doesn’t work.’

26 billionaires mobilised and spent $22 million to stop Zohran Mamdani, and their efforts were a catastrophic failure.

The horrors of Gaza could not be unseen, the hypocrisy of Washington could not be covered up, and the decaying of the ‘American Dream’ in the heart of American capitalism-New York, could not be glossed over any longer.

Venezuela’s🇻🇪 President Nicolas Maduro:

“The ugly face of colonialism resurfaces in supremacists. Americans must decide, they are weary of war. The US public made this clear after Vietnam’s defeat. Then they embarked on destroying Iraq. Twenty years in Afghanistan.

Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama bombed, destroyed, divided, and filled Libya with death…Imperialist greed fuels the world’s recent conflicts. Venezuelans are peace-loving, but warriors at heart. The blood of America’s liberators flows in our veins. We desire peace, and peace will prevail here.”

Michael Parenti goes over the history of the US🇺🇸 crushing democracy around the world and overthrowing leaders through CIA-backed coups…

There is one common denominator: All leaders overthrown by the US tried to use the political system to change the economic & class structure.

CIA Whistleblower explains why the US’ ‘War on Drugs’ has always been a complete lie.

Remember this as the Trump Administration uses the farcical pretext of ‘narco trafficking’ for a regime change war against Venezuela to topple Maduro and steal its oil reserves.

2024 military spending:

🇺🇸 US: $968 billion
🇨🇳 China: $235 billion
🇷🇺 Russia: $145.9 billion

Foreign military bases:

🇺🇸 US: Approximately 750 in over 80 countries

🇨🇳 China: 1 in Djibouti

🇷🇺 Russia: Between 18-25

And yet the media in NATO countries demand you believe that it is Russia and China that seek world domination and are the greatest threats to world peace, not the US.

The real reason behind the US’🇺🇸 looming regime change wars on Venezuela🇻🇪 and other Latin American countries?

Former Economic Hitman John Perkins: ‘Latin America, most of Africa has COMPLETELY gone to China🇨🇳.’

Rubio’s plan to turn Latin America into a war zone is also a punishment for the continent rebelling against the Monroe Doctrine, and daring to seek an alternative to US hegemonic domination.
