"This is not a war" - Former Green Beret Discusses Combat Operations in West Bank/Gaza

Check us out on Patreon for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/c/ColonialOutcasts Here is my interview on State of Play for Mint Press News - we discuss how these ongoing Israeli military operations in Gaza, The West Bank, and Southern Lebanon do not constitute the waging of War with former Special Forces operator and Green Beret, Alan Shebaro, who has recently returned from the occupied West Bank.

It is clear that the tactics employed by the IDF are not meant to defeat resistance forces, since the resistance will never cease to exist. This “war,” has been from the start an opportunity to seize land, displace people, destroy infrastructure, all under the political cover of the United States and its western allies.

The failure to implement moral consistency when it comes to foreign policy and the blithe disregard for the rules-based-order will have long-term ramifications for the United States and Israel. The world is a less safe place after a year of unmitigated violence. All of those who apologize for the genocide and use the conduct of US and coalition forces during the “Global War on Terror” to justify the actions of the IDF now are being intellectually dishonest.

This is not a war. Join us tonight for a conversation between two US special operations veterans about the conduct of Israeli Forces, their failure to achieve tactical and operational objectives, and what this headless violence means for the conduct of modern warfare going forward.
