Donald Trump called himself a “self-funder” in 2016 in an effort to show Americans he could not be bought off like the rest of Washington. Eight years later, Trump has yet to pledge even a dime of his own money to his campaign, instead relying heavily on the big-money donors he said could never influence him as president.

In part 2, Member of Israeli Knesset Dr. Ofer Cassif discusses the regional class interests that actively oppose Palestinian statehood and equality for Israelis and Palestinians. He describes the U.S.-backed bilateral Abraham Accords between Israel and the UAE, and Israel and Bahrain, as agreements to further entrench class inequalities and capitalist military-industrial interests in the Middle East and foreclose the possibility of Palestinian self-determination.

This episode of Oats for Breakfast Podcast interviews journalist and filmmaker Paul Jay. Paul discusses why a second Trump term would be significantly more dangerous than previous Republican presidencies, including Trump’s first term in office. He also talks about what it might take, over the long term, to beat back the advances that the far-right has been making in the U.S. and Canada.

The Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA), which the United States was a signatory to but abandoned under former President Trump, is unlikely to be revived. Barbara Slavin, a distinguished fellow at the Stimson Center and journalist with extensive experience reporting from Iran, underscores Iran's desperate need for sanctions relief. She argues that the JCPOA is an outdated framework, given President Biden's refusal to sign an executive order to bring the U.S. back into the deal, and that current twisted American foreign policy greenlights Israel's maniacal plans to target Iran.

Following Israel’s assassination of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, U.S. President Joe Biden asserted that Sinwar’s death could represent an opportunity to reach a political settlement in Gaza. Yet member of Israeli Knesset Dr. Ofer Cassif argues that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will continue his spree of massacring Palestinians and Lebanese with impunity. Cassif represents the Hadash-Ta’al political faction, which is a union of the Arab-Jewish far-left party Hadash, and the Arab nationalist party Ta’al – comprising the only remaining opposition in Israel’s right-wing political sphere.

Above is our short documentary film, “Trump’s Unholy Alliance.” Generous individual donors funded it. It is not associated or aligned with the Democratic Party. It is released for educational purposes because mainstream media mostly ignores these critical issues. We are not suggesting how, or even if, you should vote. Paul Jay is a veteran independent journalist and filmmaker. He is best known for his film “Hitman Hart, wrestling with shadows,” which Jordan B. Peterson called “one of the best documentaries about anything I have ever seen.” Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan) said the film is “brutally honest. A must see.” This is not to suggest that either gentleman endorses “Trump’s Unholy Alliance.”  On the contrary, we expect they would both disagree with most of what you will see. Watch and judge for yourself.

The Biden administration has been pursuing a reckless policy in the Middle East in which Israel's massacres in Gaza and now in Lebanon are unconditionally supported with deliveries of 2,000 lb bunker-busting bombs and diplomatic cover. Col. Larry Wilkerson, who served as former Chief of Staff to U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, discusses Iran's policy of strategic patience in which a response to Israel's extra-judicial killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in July, as well as a fatal strike on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, possibly came too late according to Iran's hardliners.
