Colonial Outcasts

Seven days ago the Ukrainian Army (AFU) initiated a surprise counter-offensive into the Russian region of Kursk along the northern border of Ukraine and initially captured over 350 square kilometers of territory, in what is the largest regional gain since the Kharkiv offensive nearly two years ago.  It's going to be a blunder. The AFU is incredibly unlikely to achieve any of their strategic goals...

https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts As the genocide in Gaza rages on, the specter of a large scale regional kinetic conflict with millions of lives at stake looms over our heads and Israel beats the drums of war with Washington dancing to it, a question is starting to surface in many our conversations: are we entering WWIII? This is the prologue for our multipart series on revolution with history professor, Dr. Butch Ware. Follow Professor Butch Ware on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/butchware/ We’ve had plenty of episodes on the military dynamics and postering in this region, the dangerous nature of Israel’s provocations poised to drag the United States into an all out war with Iran, Hezbollah, and Yemen that could lead us into a world war with China and Russia, but in this episode we propose an alternative possibility: WWIII gets canceled due to a scheduling conflict with a world wide revolution. We discuss the tangibility of revolution, why they fail, why they succeed, how it can be done right, why the Black Panthers are so important to the topic, how Islam plays an important part of global revolution, and most importantly: why we should be prioritizing Indigenous histories and social organization as a political direction as opposed to forms of governments birthed from white supremacy. We aim for this series to serve as a toolkit for potential leaders to use in forming their own ideas on getting this revolution popped off like a smoke grenade. #icj #antiimperialism #decolonize #ceasefire #uspolitics #israelhamaswar #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #breakingnews #internationalnews #warzoneclips #veteran #politicalnews #palestina #politics #political #internationalrelations #internationallaw #colonialoutcasts #counterterrorism #globalsecurity #iran #globalsecurity #ww3 #worldwar3 #middleeast #trump #internationalnews #warzoneclips #veteran #politicalnews #palestina #politics #political #internationalrelations #internationallaw #colonialoutcasts #counterterrorism #globalsecurity

Check us out on Patreon for Exclusive Content: https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcastsIt is currently Monday night/Tuesday morning August 5th/6th and this is a speed post episode because this news cycle has been insane over the past few days. White nationalist riots in London, a contentious election in Venezuela, an apparent overthrow, at least temporarily, of the Bangladeshi Government, and the Iran/Israel tensions are escalating to a boiling point where a wider conflict that could engulf the region is more likely now than ever and this episode can become irrelevant at any moment.

This is our second interview with Dr. Altalla, surgeon at the last fully functional hospital in Gaza, Al-Aqsa, which suffered an airstrike yesterday from the Israeli regime in their courtyard, killing 5+ and maiming others. This was recorded weeks ago following the massacre at Al-Mawasi, the victims from which Dr. Altalla treated. So some of the information is dated but the overall value of the information concerning the medical situation in Gaza is beyond relevant. The internet connection was very spotty at best and required hours of editing to make it viewable. Dr. Altalla also has to be mindful of potential drone strikes on his location as the Israeli regime actively hunts medical staff to further terrorize their resilient people of Gaza. We discuss the dire shortage of medical supplies, the impending Polio pandemic poised to sweep the population of Gaza, the improvisation and bravery by medical staff to make due with what little resources they have to save lives, and some positive moments in the midst of this hell. A teaching assistant at The Faculty of Medicine at Al Azhar University in Cairo and a medical director of Al Amal Health Center. Dr. Altalla wakes up every day to manage the critical task as surgeon for the Surgery Department of Al Aqsa Hospital. Dr. Altalla had the misfortune of witnessing one of the worst surges of patients as a result of the Al Nussiret Massacre which resulted in 270 + murdered and over 700 severely injured. In defiance of the nightmarish and unsafe conditions weaponized to drive medical staff out of Gaza, Dr. Altalla refuses to evacuate until there is a permanent ceasefire. Dr. Altalla is trying to raise money for his Master’s in the UK.

 / colonialoutcasts   So Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran according the IRGC. Apparently Hamas has confirmed this saying that he "died as a result of a treacherous Zionist raid on his residence in Tehran." A hollow victory, at best. The entire axis of resistance is bigger than any one leader, and the importance of this will be overstated by Israel and the western media. So yeah, a targeted political assassination in sovereign Iranian territory while they were actively engaged in ceasefire negotiations with Hamas’s political wing, lead by Haniyeh. Israel is a short-circuiting killing machine that only exports violence and the tools of repression.

Former US Army Air Defense Artillery officer Jason discusses the Houthi/Israel conflict, Iron Dome defense system challenges, vulnerabilities, and potential for conflict escalation. Analysis on recent drone strikes, Hezbollah involvement, and biases in pro-Israeli/pro-Palestinian protests.

So what happened on Friday? Well, THE ICJ RULING CONFIRMS WHAT PALESTINIANS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR 57 YEARS: Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal, a form of apartheid, and must end, says the U.N.’s high court at The Hague. While this is hopeful, bear in mind that the ruling does little to immediately change the lived reality for Palestinians.

There were egregious failures in coverage and protocol within law enforcement and the Secret Service at the Trump Rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.  It should have been impossible for the 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks to gain access to a rooftop 400 feet from the podium and set up a sniper position in the most obvious vantage point imaginable.

Being not really into Empire or the subjugation of less powerful nation states, we generally take a dim view of NATO, so we really enjoyed the three day NATO Summit that ended yesterday, Thursday the 11th of July, because there was just such good material. Join us for a riveting discussion!

https://www.patreon.com/ColonialOutcasts Happy 4th of July. All empires fall. We are joined today by professor Butch Ware. What this episode is about is in the Title. Let's go! Follow Professor Butch Ware on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/butchware/
