There you go, we have extended family in Israel. We don't have family in Palestine, so we're all fine about them getting bombed 24/7.
Everything is clearer with that in mind.
EXCACTLY!
It's apparent why he's been selected to replace Corbyn.
Keir you said it, stop lying.
Exactly 💯
It’s all he ever does.
We know exactly what he said, and they did it
Have the Palestinian people ever had a right to defend themselves.
Exactly, this is open racism.
But it was Hamas, who govern Gaza having been elected by the people of Gaza, who attacked Israel and killed over 1400 civilians and injures thousands more.
So Israel cannot defend itself? Do give over.
By the way, Israel has been subjected to at least eight acts of war by surrounding Arab states since the United Nations gave those Jews the right to have their own homeland.
@@ChristineRead-ck1uqYou know over 4000 Palestinian are dead civilians, mother's, women children etc? And still right now more Palestinians by the thousands are dead compared to Israelis.
@@ChristineRead-ck1uqIsrael have trapped Palestinians for years. It's an apartheid state designed to discriminate against and cleanse Palestinians.
@@ChristineRead-ck1uqHamas is a creation of Israel and America initially to weaken the PLO
Since when did he have the right to say the WHOLE of the UK stands behind ANY cause!
Well said ❤
Indeed….Same with Sunak. I’ll speak for myself.
Infact he is right and majority of British people do stand with Israel !!
Same with Biden, and they know that many people do not agree and couldn't care enough to make the difference.
@@bullrider9617 Adding two exclamation points doesn’t make that comment any less misinformed.
For Labour to do away with Jeremy Corbyn and go for this man is disgusting. He has thrown decency under the bus for political expediency
@bobbyshermanski611 oh dear!! You've really followed the msm bs down the rabbit hole. I bet that you believe the earth is flat too. Keep up you subscription to the Daily Mail.
@@bobbyshermanski611you missed the words spineless, WEF, Davos lover in your appraisal of clueless starmer.
Agree
@@bobbyshermanski611 You’re just using buzzwords you learned from your propaganda handbook to describe Corbyn. At the very least he had a heart.
Well said@@bobbyshermanski611
This guy is a former human rights lawyer, he knows what he said. He is abandoning principle for political point scoring with the American hegemony.
@@AmaranthAcademy-ni2xq same thing
He is a Zionist.. what else would you expect from him?
Well said my dear brothers
Thank you all
He is bought and paid for a mere lacky doing his masters bidding .
Mustn't go against Uncle Sam! The Labour Party 'outs' its members for being anti-semitic. Unfortunately, confusing a religion and culture with the actions of a state, any criticism of the State of Israel has become a massive taboo.
There is no Hamas in the West Bank but Palestinians keep getting killed and their land stolen this didn't start on the 7th October.
For a human rights lawyer to clearly say withholding water and food is acceptable says enough.
If it was your child murdered or a loved one would you support aiding water. I'm not saying it is right but just genuinely interested in what you would do
@@Aaronazza1234what about the children of the Palestinians? Are their blood cheaper than water, that Israel is shedding it so inhumanely for years after years?
Israel does have the right not to supply Food and Water to an attacking force under international law! The assumption that Israel must supply Palestine is totally false!
@@craftsofaliza7014 You act as if Palestine has played no part in the war with Israel! If it wasn't for the Iron Dome Israel would be hit multiple times daily in civilian targets by Hamas Missiles!
@@Aaronazza1234 even if that was me, as a professional I would be expected to act without bias and to the letter of what is and isn't a human rights offence.
I wouldn't be making justifications to break those rules to suit my own personal needs regardless of how I felt because it's a conflict of interest to do so.
What Keir is meaning to say that only Israelis are humans and have the right to live in the land they have occupied. All Palestinians just happen to be there and their lives are meaningless. Shame on such individuals who consider others to be less of human. They themselves have no humanity left in them
At the end of the day, it's the Wef Corporations doing this. They want Wars because they are hungry for more tax payers money, not forgetting the depopulation Agenda. UK and America/ Biden all the same.
No Wars when Trump in Power of WH.
He said it loud and clear when Nick Ferrari asked him that question about Israel cutting off water and electricity... starmer said Israel has that right.
Starmer went off script so fat boy covered it up
Just beyond appauling , he dosent represent me and I was !!! a Labour supporter in another life. Jereremy Corbyn supported the rights of Palestinians and was labelled an anti semetic, shame on the Labour Party who chase middle class votes cause they believe it will mean power. Im beyond dissapointed in the Labour Party who have long foggotton what Labour means and represents
What the anxiety that the Palestinians have felt for 70 years? Thrown out of their homes by settlers backed up by the Israeli police and army? Is that not anxiety? Your father, your mother, your siblings being killed for being outdoors, is that not anxiety?
Don't sweat it. Apparently 65% of Palestinians are criminals.
I'm surprised he can manage to stand up straight without a spine.
👍👌👏👏👏the best comment ever. Spot on
😅
Anyone who changes his principles to accommodate anothers idea is not fit to lead a nation
The UK shouldn't be standing with Israel
School bully beats u everyday, takes your lunch, cool drink, money and teachers and principles don't listen and do nothing, but as soon as the victim retaliates, everyone is appalled at his actions and he is reprimanded, sound familiar on a much larger scale?
I hope that the voters of this country move to remove him as Labour leader. Hamas's actions were abhorrent but supporting war crimes against a civilian population is shameful!
VERY disappointed. He is essentially complicit in supporting collective punishment, which is illegal under the Geneva convention. Nice job Kier.
Yet lacks the courage to admit it.
Since Starmer actually said the exact opposite on collective punishment I assume you did not listen.
@@EdJames-tb9oz Ouch, this kitty has claws! It’s the juxtaposition of his initial point with the clip at the beginning of the video. So, you just listened after the first clip? Think more shill
@@cherylsmith8274 So explain the first clip then.
@@cherylsmith8274so what you are saying is that they have the right, to cut off the water, fuel and food for 2.5 million half of them children.
Starmer is a human rights lawyer and he knows that it is a war crime, he is just busy kissing the butts of his masters
Why does Israel have the right, for a land they stole?
100% right
Because they are the best army in the world and the west is backing them, only the weak complain of lost rights, the strong take what they want.
@@toxlaximus3297The Palestinian people are far from weak, they’re incredibly resilient in the face of Israeli brutality and an illegal occupation.

@@garyfletcher1910 Are they Terrorists or Freedom Fighters?...that is decided by the winning side.
Video cameras have existed since 1888 and Keir Starmer has yet to figure out what they do.
Not him alone but apparently lots of them. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ProjectHyenaright?
Lol😂
So, if innocent Palestinians get murdered by Israel's retaliation to Hamas' attacks, do the innocent Palestinians have the right to defend themselves and also get to retaliate or do they just get automatically turned into Hamas terrorists if they do so also?
You know the answer.
There are no innocent Palestinians 👌
Israel has boys in prison for throwing stones. They imprisoned a 17 year old girl for kicking and spitting after the IDF shot at her cousin.
Does the ‘right to self defence’ include perpetrating war crimes? Bring back Jeremy Corbyn a man with principles.
😂😂😂😂🤡🤮
I think you got bitten with a Rabid dog 🐕
Corbyn's principles don't extend to condemning Hamas for murdering civilians.
Corbyn is a rare breed of Politicians who are always hated for being fair and for speaking the truth. They are never welcome in the political sphere.
When Corbyn embraced the victims families of Grenfell he showed more empathy and compassion than all of his constituents whilst Theresa May simply drove by. Corbyn is a legend ❤
In this video, Starmer expressed no empathy for Palestinian civilians whatsoever. He is not being objective and there are obviously several factors nourishing his completely one-sided perspective. It's giving him an air of ugliness.
Well spotted. These people can't make it anymore obvious now can they....They're all the SAME. Same financiers, same backers, same people pulling their strings. When are people gonna learn....
No it isn't, corbyn is NEVER coming back. It's time to move on :)
@@deejaybuh1099 seems like you cant move on
palestine civilians voted hamas into power. reap what you sow
They are brown-skinned. They do not count!
Starmer is going to hurt his knee if he keeps bending on it for Israel.
What a pity the interviewer didn't bother to follow up on the answers. Cutting off water, electricity and fuel is a war crime but starmers answer was well Israel has a right to defend itself
Imagine he could be the next Prime Minister.
@@holacliveI would emigrate
If it’s a war crime under international law then he denied it. 😂
Our prayers are with the Palestinian people. You don't have to be a Muslim to support Palestine, you just have to be human💔🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

The repetitive ‘Israel has he right to defend itself’ literally feels like they all revise a script so keep repeating it like a broken record
The script is not saying it once they are told to say it at least 3 times, if you watch all the mealy mouthed pretend politicians
"Safe and effective"
@@MrSidReal ''Build back better''
He's now being forced to amend his statements.
Furiously backpedalling now.
He knows exactly what he said and meant.
Israel has stolen over 80% of Palestinian Land and if Israel has the right to defend itself then Palestine has the right to restore their lands and freedom. Native Americans were seen as less than human when the colonisers were stealing their land (and committing terrible attrocities against each other) but nobody now says that they had no right to defend their territories against the settlers.

I know loads of folk who don't "stand with Israel ". He just doesn't get the country's mood.
He's afraid of lobbyists who pay him. He's a coward
Nick Ferrari exposed that he has a beef in the game! Yes he is out of touch with reality! Not only the mood of the country but the mood of the entire planet is outraged by these war crimes
Of course, its well know that traditionally many on the left have always harboured a great hatred for Jewish people. Near half of all the Jewish people on the planet live in Israel. Of those 61 percent are Mizrahi ie non-European. They were expelled from Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Syria, Egypt, North Africa. The rest are from ex-Soviet 'stans'. They have nowhere else to go.
I know loads of folk who think Israel is acting respectfully and legally
But he also admitted that he's a Zionist "without qualification".
No backbone or morals.
So Keir has summed up that Isreal has the rite to commit war crimes. I'm not voting for labour.
Breaking news : "investigation into the lost of Keir Starmer backbone reveal the man was born without one"
I will never vote for labour because of Keir's complete disregard for Palestinian lives. Shame on you Keir and labour as a whole, i thought you were better than this.
Failing to oust the Tories in the next election will be the jewel in Starmer's crown of mediocrity. Zero accountability. Zero respect.
What's the point of "ousting the Tories"? Is the Labour conservative party in some way different?
@@klawlor3659yes...a tory with a red rosette is still a tory.
Corbyn supporters overdosing on copium is the saddest thing I’ve witnessed over the last few days 😭
@@klawlor3659and it’s this attitude that has enabled the Tory government to destroy this country unchecked. Compromise isn’t easy but if it’s what’s needed to get elected and actually make change, I’d take Starmer over a leader happy to appease the left of the party and stay in opposition

@@abrahamsneo7783 Exactly pal.
That's what Ep$t€!n was doing.
Does he not realise Israel is not makeing any attempts whatsoever to get the hostages back.
Precisely....they are expendables just like the others.
Israel wants the hostages not to be freed! It gives them justification to invade
In your opinion ,are you privy to what Israel or any country's doing about hostages? You obviously don't realise or know
@@waynegazard5038 yes I am privy, plus their actions speak for themselves
@@waynegazard5038 plus it's the families of the hostages that are saying this not me. Do a bit of searching.
There should be a Nurenberg style trial for all western leaders starting with Netanyahu and Biden when all this is over.
No we will start with Tony Blair .
This will never end. Israel will rule all
Neither Keir Starmer nor Joe Biden can remember what they have previously said. I can understand Joe Biden’s reasons for memory loss, but Mr Starmer? Could it be that he has a propensity to be mendacious.
Showing his true colours. And people want Labour in charge...we're doomed. He's also going to ignore opposition to building housing. Oh great, ignore local public democracy. Where does THAT end then huh?
Starmer is a zionist married to a zionist, he doesn't hide it
@@Dynasty1818 Some people do want them in charge somehow, though I think more just want the Tories not to be in charge. The lack of any actual options is causing a lot of the issues, but the politicians benefit from that.
Liars have short memories.
Starmer is married to an Israeli, and his offspring are being raised in the Jewish faith, so go figure where his allegiance goes first, he is no more than one of many zionists infiltrators in our government, just as many infiltrators in the Conservative Party.
Sorry Starmer this 'Brit' is NOT behind Israel.
Nor this one.
@@douglasmacari8707The zionist starmer does not speak for me either.
Vote Green. This man is a disgrace.
Hostage situations have occurred for thousands of years. They have been settled without going to war. This could have happened here.
Conflating Israel with the Jewish religion is as bad as conflating Hamas with Palestinians. The Israeli government is not representative of all Jews. Separating these within the media would de-escalate much situation around the world.
Unfortunately, too many 'Jews' do support Israeli. In fact, it often seems to me that they aren't really 'English' or 'American' (unlike, say, an 'English Catholic') and are actually Fifth Columnists in whichever country they live. The fact that a lot of them seem to be atheists is even more confusing.
But this isn't just a straightforward 'hostage situation' is it?
There's the small matter of 1500 Hamas 'soldiers' killing more than 850 civilians 'face to face' in their homes. Men, women and children. 260 young people killed at a music festival. Plus the 400 or more killed by 7,000 missiles launched at them. Add to that the 299 hostages - men, women, children and babies.
Would you expect the Israelis to sit back and say, 'Oh, never mind. We can't retaliate in case we upset the easily offended' ?
@@stevedavidson666You're really just proving OP's point.
Kier starmer human rights lawyer what a fkn joke.... I'll never vote Labour again
That a country has a right to defend itself is such a ridiculously redundant statement. Of course it does. What you were saying was that they have the right to do whatever they deem necessary under the banner of self defence. For Israel, this means they can do whatever they please, because you would rather die than criticise them.
Ah, but you forget they've always got 'the holocaust' (the Jewish one of course) to throw back at anyone criticising their disgusting treatment of the Palestinians.
@user-SubvurzIVbut if someone punches you in the face you do have the right to defend yourself. It’s that persons fault if they use the house as a shield from your defense. 😂
Its not even a case of defending themselves.they have been doing what they want for the laat 70 years..its funny how israelis condemn hamas as terrorists when there own terrorists went on to become ministers in the israeli government one becoming the prime minister of israel.
That's right Israel is still under attack ,do you even know what point you're trying to make?
Here is a question for u wayne.and be honest..do u think the state of israel was formed in 1948 under fair terms and respecting the people who were living on the land?.
The Palestinian have the right to resist the occupation of the terrorist state of Israel,, the Palestinian people have the right to defend themselves.
Children are meant to legally be protected in War. Internationally accepted rules of armed conflict were passed under the Geneva Conventions in 1949, which state children must be protected and treated humanely
Hamas doesn’t comply with the Geneva Convention nor do any of the Muslim countries that’s why they are so barbaric to each other and to westerners
A proportionate response is one where _no civilians die._ You don't get to shift blame for the deaths that occur from the bombs that you drop. This is NOT "self defense" under ANY definition of the word. What he says is absolutely atrocious.
According to the EU Israel is committing a war crime in Gaza. On 19/10/22 Ursula von der Leyen said about Russia; "Cutting off utilities, food and water is a war crime".
Remember this?
Israel apology after plot against UK politicians.
Israeli diplomat caught on camera plotting to 'take down' UK MPs.
Shai Masot is recorded discussing how to discredit MPs in comments described by Israeli embassy as ‘unacceptable.'
The Isreali lobby has infiltrated UK politics to the extent that we have ZERO eutonomy or sovereignty in this country. And you can see that clear as day with the scripted phrases all the major news outlets have to keep repeating about Isreal/Hamas.
Kier Starmer - When i said the horrible thing i said, i didnt' say it, i was saying something different, so im also going to appologiez for saying what i didnt say. But now if i want to continue as a socially acceptable person i want to be not on the right side of history, but not on the wrong side. Of course the 2 state solution is not possible beause the state of isreal does not want it, cause if they did, they could do it tomorrow, but were going to say 2 state and ignore that palestine doesnt have any power to do anything.
Israels self defence just bombed a church
You can see his body language how he is lying, thinking stopping talk looked side by sides wow
starmer doesn't believe a word he's saying on Gaza.
Has anyone asked us if we stand by Israel????
If you are a friend of Israel you have to start holding it to account. Years of special privileges has not helped.
Stamer is the weakest link in labour. That guy is no leader .
He doesn't even believe this himself. Of course he doesn't believe millions of people in Gaza should be deprived of *water*
The fact he says stuff he doesn't believe marks him as a pathetic coward. Zero spine
No, Israel doesn’t have the right to occupy Palestinians
homeland.
This guy stands for nothing!!! My labour gone down the crapper!
"We don't conflate peaceful Palestinian issues with Hamas", he's acting like Hamas' attack had nothing to do with the killing and oppression toward Palestinian in the past decades, he really thinks that we're dumb.
Starmer's policy:
1 - We support Israel's absolute right of self-defence, for which they alone have the right to define without restraints.
2 - Israel reserves the sole right to identify any person or building to be a "terrorist" or "Hamas Infrastructure" as it pleases. Therefore, by its own rules which it alone decides, Israel does not and has never ever targeted civilians.
3 - Israel may also interpret "Humanitarian Crisis" and the "Rules of Armed Conflict" as it sees fit. Israel is not subject to the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court on War Crimes. It does not need to be, as it has never targeted civilians under its own rules.
4 - All queries requesting further clarification should be addressed to the Israeli Ministry of Defence's Press Office.
What!!!!! he doesn't stand by the Palestinians in our community. Politicians should not say the uk stands with Israel. They need to now say I. They cant speak for us as a whole
" Israel has the right to defend herself " 😂😂
This phase has become like a slogan of somewhat for some.
Literally!!!
It's a talking point the pr company handed out to them
He's lost my vote 🗳
Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the British Marco Rubio 😅
Remember Marco Rubio in one of the Republican primary debates repeating over and over again: "And let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing."
Well, Keir here looks like a robot coached to say "first and foremost Israel has the right to defend herself"
Such a talentless politican...
The look on his face like axrabbit cought it headlights. He is so confused. Hes certainly dsnt get my vote.
This man may potentially be the Prime Minister in 2024. How will people be able to vote for this man - traditional right wing-voters or left-wing
Two wrongs won't make this right, I am honestly disappointed in Keir Stammers response he showed no compassion for the innocents being murdered now in Palestine either now or before the Hammass attack . As a UK citizen I support peace for both Jews and Palastinians. Kier is clearly biased for obvious reasons. Many, many Jews have spoken out and will not agree with him and just want peace, not more war and killing. We should not be showing off flags for Israel , they have been attacking Palastinians for years and years and visa versa. We should be promoting peace. I will never vote for someone who can't do that for us or any other country.
Its always the innocents that suffer, and they are always at the bottom run of the ladder, people who have never seen the handywork of fanatical extremists will never understand, and I for one will never forget, its a sad fact in the 21st century we still cant get along, but if people looked into the mindsets and ideologies involved of both sides they may understand what is really going on... like everything else the plain and simple truth is seldom plain and never simple
Exactly why i would not vote for labour or starmer? Questions need to be asked about how starmer got his knighthood?
Starmer is far from the only reason to not vote Labour.

Can an Israeli wave an Israel flag infront of Palestinians in the UK or is it only one way?
No offense but I do not have ties to Israel so i still believe people have a right to wave a flag without being arrested
This same narrative. There's a surprise! Blood is on your hands too KS!
He's only apologising now because a few of his counsellors resigned
Starmer sounds like he has been taken hostage.
He has. It happened at about the time he stood for Labour leader. Remember how he refused to reveal who was funding his campaign? Now you know.
I will not vote for labour anymore. We wanted to see J Corbyn as labour leader.
I don’t normally take sides and always try to be impartial by reading two sides of the stories. But I’m losing more and more sympathy for Israel after they bombed the old church in Gaza and killed Palestinian Christians seeking protection there. Why???
did you not see the problem of over 1000 children?

You can almost see the tendrils of power in action.

This Starmer guy decides what way the wind blows then calibrates his response or retreat accordingly, a bandwagon politician if ever there was one. It would be interesting to know what kind of human rights he believes in, or maybe more pertinent- whose?
Why is the wetfish scared. If he believes support should be witheld just say that it is your belief. Why back track. Stand by your principles.
He thinks we forgot what he said.
Starmer been given this script by his paymasters under the table. If hamas been responsible for one episode then Israel is responsible for 75 years for hundreds of countless episodes which is far longer and disproportionately gargantuan! Let’s put those two on the scale now, c’mon??!
No, Israel does not have the right to commit war crimes by shutting off water, power, food, meds, etc.
Palestine has the right to fight for the land the Israelis have occupied, I think that's what he meant to say.
"Change the party".
You sure have.
So much so that I cannot vote for you now.

"Israel can break international law as long as they do so within the bounds of international law"

A human right lawyer not only defending Israel, IDF and what they do but also condoning the cutting off the power and water supply!
I can clearly see him as the next PM. His kind of people do well in politics and will make Britain Great again.
What a slipper snake this man has shown himself as!
He was asked 'Is it acceptable under international and humanitarian law to deprive an entire population of food and water?' and the human rights lawyer replied 'Isreal has a right to defend itself'. YOu avoided the question and perpetuated the Right-Wing Israeli government talking points.
Shame on you Starmer, I was going to vote for you but not seriously reconsidering.
My love goes out to all Jewish and Palestinian people!
My hate is for Hamas and the Right-Wing Israeli government.
A million of them on the way here.
In Denmark 64% of the ones brought in now have criminal records.
blame keir
He literally just contradicted what he said before. A siege is ok? Cutting electricity and water? I think that's right. He literally said that
When asked directly what would be a proportional response by Israel to Hamas, the first thing to do is to try to give an answer to that question, not launch into yet another denouncement of Hamas and forget the question. So that it had to be asked again, avoided again, and then given up on by the questioner.
Why does the UK have to stand with Israel? Why can't anybody in the UK choose to support the Palestinian cause? Is it not a just cause? We have a parallel with the Minsk Accords here, promises were made to the Palestinians decades ago and have simply been ignored by those that made them. Where is the sovereign, independent State of Palestine?
Starmer didn't have the guts to say that a siege that denied food, water, electricity, and other essentials to a large city population was a crime. "Israel has a right to defend itself" was repeated several times. Exactly what is Israel defending itself from by imposing these punishing measures on a civilian population?
The ongoing bombing of Gaza, with deaths last nigh approaching 4,000, didn't even get a mention. Not a proportional conversation.
