I really dislike how her wagging finger and the condescending treatment shown by the vapid show presenter attempted to infantilize and silence Owen, and dismissed out of hand the issues they were supposed to be exploring - the lives and deaths of people on both sides of this "conflict". Absolutely unacceptable behaviour by those two women. How dare they attempt to lecture anyone on morality?

He bombed the British military HQ, he murdered British soldiers and boobytrapped their bodies.

My side of the family was blacklisted from the family ever since. Israel broke my family and my father's heart because he would not condone state apartheid and thuggery . . . . .

Yes. Yes you do. You defend by any means necessary. But who is the aggressor here? I know the illegal settlers that killed and bombed their way into creating a country aided by the British.
" If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing. " Malcolm X
Murdoch and other right wing papers have achieved that very successfully in UK, and sadly sometimes even the so-called left leaning ones have been feckless and been patronising their 'rivals' who are actually part of the same fraternity.
It's always the way when states are invested in defending and expanding all manner of oppression which, under capitalism, is vital to do, and that is why it must be overthrown.
After they have suffered so much. And 1 00 of movies and documentations. And remember monuments. All over the w orld....why are they oppressing ....why..why. nothing learned
Thanks. Apparently they saying A I generated images of babies being killed was generated by Israel...uhm I have no idea if this true . Just saw it on aljazeera.
The double standard glaring at us in the media is just jaw-dropping. She was asking Owen to think, whereas in all indications, she was just there with her preconceived ideas and not open to even listen to the sufferings of the Palestinians. Utterly pathetic.
The crazy lady isn't hate filled. She's empathy filled. But for one side only. A bit like many left wing people on other issues that I can't bring up or I will be called hateful by those on the left.
@@formulaic78 left wing empathy does not include genocidal nationalism or anything remotely comparable. Whatever you're afraid of being called hateful over, it's almost certainly both unrelated and deserved.
Some of the coverage by journalists has absolutely sickened me. I watched a Palestinian diplomat who had just lost 6 members of his family almost break having to consistently tell the interviewer that he doesnt support Hamas. He received no compassion or understanding for the loss of his family.
@@antonioguimaraes8595 what does this mean? If you're expressing disbelief, please feel free to look up the interview with Kirsty Wark and Husam Zomlot. It was on the BBC.
Thank you, Owen! I am so damn tired of the Western governments and media blindly supporting Israel. Im disgusted with my Canadian government as well as the U.S. and U.K for not speaking out or expelling Israeli diplomats.
wow that's some story maybe you should write a book. Knowing that you see the story from both sides from a family and bloodline perspective that's deep. So the state of Israel separated families
What is even sad is that Margaret would have been around for all the 70 years. Unless she is in a deliberate denial, she should have learned ar least a little bit in her lifetime. It is really sad to see. It seems that she values some lives over others. She values her prejudice over the truth
Exactly, Netanyahu is acting as the leader of a terrorist organization, just like Hamas, not as the leader of a civilized country, all Israelies should
@@hafizzimohamad5204 Did they intentionally target children like Hamas did or did they follow international law and warn the area they were going to bomb it?
Yep...our children count but yours don't, our suffering counts but yours doesn't, our right to the land counts so by by Palestinians...didn't realize it had been so bad for Palestinians for so long....time to wake up and smell the roses...
Owen, I’d agree with you 100%. It’s so tragic that people like Margaret, whom I once thought of as balanced and fair minded are proving themselves to be morally chauvinistic and frankly racist.
Defend Palestinian children being bombed and you get labelled an anti-Semite. Criticise the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the subsequent apartheid it's led to and you get labelled an anti-Semite. If Israel's only deflection of these horrific crimes is to call you an anti-Semite, you know their argument is untenable.
I couldn't put it better myself. Thank you for succinctly explaining the predicament of anyone trying to defend the most oppressed and besieged people on this planet.
Yes, it's a strange world, the Palestinians are Semitic, but it's not anti-Semitic to shoot their children - but support Jeremy Corbyn and you are an anti-Semite. Hodge´s thin veneer of respectability hides a loathsome creature.
When you realise the British were pretty much responsible by enacting a declaration just after the first world war that resulted in the mess Israelis and Palestinians are in today
You really have to question much of the news medias talking points. They're not actually there to inform; they're there to keep the normies mouthing the govt's talking points. If you believed even a fraction of the stuff said about the Russians, you're very very naive.
I’m a little confused here, we support a nation for taking land from another nation in the middle east but we condemn a nation trying to take land/territory from another nation in Europe?? The history lesson here doesn’t make any sense. Her and her corrupt boss clearly see Palestinian civillians as disposable sub-humans. Both our main parties (and Tory enabling Lib-Dems) are rotten from the top down, not sure how we as a nation can stop our decent into the gutter.
I admire your morals, Owen. You were very strong in that debate because you said the truth which Margaret tried to deny but she failed !! Wishing you the best and carry on speaking up on behalf of British people 👍 Thank you 😊
I guess they completely integrated even without relising it, that they are not completely human children, in a way. (Or people, for that matter) Oh, we live in such a beautiful era.
Margaret keep asking Owen to think for what happened for the last few days, but can’t she think about what Israel have been done to Palestinian for the last 17 years? Look at the duration of Palestinian endure comparing to the last few days! Thank you Owen for defending the life of Palestinian.
Margaret Hodge: Israel have a right to respond and I hope they do that within international law. Owen: Me too, but they are currently saying they're going to respond with war crimes which is worrying. Margaret Hodge: WHAT?! YOU'RE SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND THEMSELVES?! YOU'RE SAYING YOU LOVE HAMAS?! Just completely unhinged and not a normal way to discuss things.
@@pollytickle8346I think she means over the last few decades, Palestinian children have been disproportionately effected by the siege on Gaza spreading back for example with little to no mainstream coverage
They are, but the hysterical defence of the child murdering Palestinians is off the chart and it all stems from leftist hatred of any so called right wing countries. If Palestine was right wing they would say nothing.
It's truly disheartening when someone begins discussing justice, and everyone attempts to stifle their voice. Jones, your support for peace is greatly appreciated.
She says Imagine you're an Israeli and that happened to your family and friends. But she clearly can't imagine she's Palestinian and everyone she knows is getting bombed. The irony
how inhuman could she be? smiling after all of what she has said. She interrupts him when she knows he is saying the truth then smiles afterwards ;give her position to someone else
Not only does she have nasty thoughts, but she looks nasty and sounds nasty. Thank you, Sir, for standing up for Palestinians and Israelis. You are a wonderful man, ....its a shame politicians can not think or see from a humble guy like you. People around like you we are safe. SHAME SHAME SHAME on you MARGARET
He is right. There is a double standard and censure to anyone trying to remember the extreme suffering of Palestinians, here in western countries. It’s a shame!
Israel is holding more than 1000 Palestinian political detainees under brutal conditions since the beginning of occupation, but no one cared. 240 Palestinians died this year alone before the escalation the last few days but also no media coverage
You are not human and not even an animal, you are a creature that is OK with murdering children where everyone knows now that your officials lied about killing Isra_children while it had been proved that they killed Palestinians children
I don't think the reporter was at fault here. She did try to mediate, and I thinkngenuinely upset at some of the images shes seeing. The Hodges of the world dwny reality to suit their agenda. I always find it strange how leaders of a people who have suffered at the hands of fascists can justify such inhumanity.
"Just taking an interest in these, what do you call 'em, Palestinians or whatever, is suspect if you ask me. Are you obsessed, Owen?" Says the lady turning puce in real time.
As soon as the US shows some moral leadership, and grabs Israel by the test articles... the UK, the media etc will all change their tune... ... and "suddenly" realise... You Can't Defend The Indefensible ...
Thank you for the media-capable humanitarians like yourself for standing up for decency and standing against genocide. It’s shameful that saying “stop the genocide” gets us harassed, threatened, and careers cancelled. That just demonstrates for us how right we are and how important it is!
I absolutely do not have any form of respect for such people who think that it is only okay for Israel to protect their people and not Palestinians…. How sick there minds are…
One person in that interview sat there and condemned the slaughter of innocent human beings on both sides of a fence. The other sat there outraged and condemned the murders on one side of a fence, whilst justifying the brutal murder of innocent human beings on the other side.
Watching her face through that was appalling. Whenever he mentioned any attempts at peace, or any response short of bombing the sh*t out of Gaza, her face turned to utter fury. But when he mentioned Palestinians at 9:13 being killed and the interviewer mentions Israeli babies being killed? Absolute sh*t eating grin until Owen points out that Palestinian babies are also being killed, then she turns to fury again. She doesn't get upset about the Israeli babies dying there, she gets angry that OJ reminds us that Israel is killing babies.
@@samca4472 Didn't the French resistance hide, fight and store weapons among the civilian population's houses too during WW2? Should they build a military base or a weapons depot out in a field somewhere? Plus, aren't they forced to live and stay within Gaza?
Owen Jones is dismissing the fact Hamas has caused this and Gazan's need to apprehend and turn the rapists and murders over to Israel or the international crimianl court.
As a Labour Peer, it's surprising to hear Hodge effectively say that the correct response to the IRA Brighton Bombing would be to carpet bomb Dublin. The willful refusal to distinguish between a terrorist organisation and the general population is staggering.
@FONASDeadlock. Ignorance is wide spread as is hatred Weapons build more hate and destruction .Diplomacy , however hard it is gets there . I'm with you :)

Thank you for standing up for the innocent. I can't believe the amount of people who are willing to kill innocent children in the sake of the right to defend themselves!
This video needs to be shared far and wide. Thank you Owen for speaking up when no one else will. How you were able to stay composed in that interview, I have no idea.
She was just being herself. She was even worse during the Corbyn years - did everything within her political power to bring him down. She is a very skilled dissembler.
I constantly find it unsettling how the plight of the Palestinians are ignored while the Israeli government continues to murder innocents. I completely condemn what HAMAS has done, and I equally condemn the murder of Palestinian innocent people by the Israeli government
All parties are wrong in dealing with crisis This unfortunate crisis could have been all avoided if the root cause had been wisely resolved long time ago
Such a shame that the interview couldn't be continued, but it was obvious that Margaret was mixing her feelings with facts, and she wasn't ready to hear you out! Even the host of the show lost the control and decided to end it. You're doing a great job, and you get all my support and respect.
Hodge insisting on pointing out what's happened over the last few days but not allowing any reflection on what has happened over decades is an example of the whole of political twisting of the truth.
And what lead to any Israeli action? Do you even know the reasons for the state of the region today, why Palestinians have to live under the occupation of Israel?
this woman amazes me ,I hate anyone who gets attacked by anyone else especially when their bigger but to say Israel has the right to defend itself (true by the way) but not admit that Palestine can makes her no better than the point she is saying about Owen ,keep going Owen ,I am right with you ,you talk so much sense ....by the way he looked a bit under the weather, hope nobody has put anything in his breakfast ✊
“What the Palestinians are asking is not the stars, the moon, and the sky. They are asking for their minimum basic, uncontroversial rights under International Law, which have been repeatedly certified in all the political, and legal, and human rights bodies in the world” - Norman Finkelstein

She said consider the past 3 days concerning israeli PEOPLE and have compassion... but forget the years of the same treatment to the Palestinian PEOPLE!
I’m in floods of tears right now because if an intelligent, well educated woman like Margret Hodge can’t admit that ALL LIFE is sacred, precious and unique, no matter which side of an invented line it is born and exists, then I’m afraid there is no hope. She wasn’t listening, she couldn’t even hear what Owen said, what he was saying. I am in utter despair. 💔

Owen, you're an absolute legend for taking on this one-sided narrative from the establishment. Margaret's conduct during this interview was an embarrassment; interrupting you, trying to put words into your mouth, and grinning childishly while you were trying to express your entirely fair and reasonable perspective.

I listened to this while I was at work today and it made my blood pressure skyrocket to the point where I actually had to take five minutes to collect myself.

@@hattmancock6396 Perhaps if Israel stopped letting settlers from other countries kick Palestinian people out of their homes and off their land; perhaps if Israeli forces didn't bomb Palestinian children playing on beaches and stopped targeting pregnant women, perhaps Israel wouldn't get attacked.

I condemn violence in all forms but please don't semantically twist the notion of defence within a void of context.
The way Owen is not allowed to speak is infuriating. Margaret can’t allow him to talk without constant interruption. Is she concerned that Owen will demonstrate how despicable and one sided she is.
Hodge is self aware though... she described herself as a "vile" child... ...and I guess it's a quality that never leaves you... ... much like Kier Starmers, self proclaimed, "honesty, integrity and patriotism"...😅
Same M Hodge who made her name talking tough on corporate tax dodging only to be found to be doing some tax avoiding herself. It's ok though, according to Lord Rifkind it was just vanilla tax avoidance, the kind they all do apparently. Nothing but a vile hypocrite who's been wheeled out more and more because apparently people have forgotten her base hypocrisy.
They just don't see Palestinians as people do they? They ignore the numbers of Palestinian people and children that have been killed regularly over the last years. There are Palestinians in this country who are trying to contact family members. The Palestinian ambassador has lost 6 innocent members of his family this week. Hodge cannot ever allow someone else to speak.

I'm not gonna pretend to know the ins and outs of this situation. But the fact that Margaret stated that she thought that only the last few days meant anything at all, when it comes to children's deaths, just angered me
100% EVIL. They've been getting away talkin about killing Palestinian children for decades.

The presenter was sickening. She was getting angry when talking about children dying but allowed the crazy old lady to carry on her hatred!

Morally
Defend Palestinian children being bombed and you get labelled an anti-Semite. Criticise the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the subsequent apartheid it's led to and you get labelled an anti-Semite. If Israel's only deflection of these horrific crimes is to call you an anti-Semite, you know their argument is untenable.
I couldn't put it better myself. Thank you for succinctly explaining the predicament of anyone trying to defend the most oppressed and besieged people on this planet.
Yes, it's a strange world, the Palestinians are Semitic, but it's not anti-Semitic to shoot their children - but support Jeremy Corbyn and you are an anti-Semite. Hodge´s thin veneer of respectability hides a loathsome creature.
The cry anti-Semite = get out of jail free card.
When you realise the British were pretty much responsible by enacting a declaration just after the first world war that resulted in the mess Israelis and Palestinians are in today
You really have to question much of the news medias talking points.
They're not actually there to inform;
they're there to keep the normies mouthing the govt's talking points.

Wishing you the best and carry on speaking up on behalf of British people 👍 Thank you 😊
She basically said: how dare you care about innocent children!
Well they're Palestinian children you see...not Israeli children.....they don't matter...not to Israelis anyway....

He is right. There is a double standard and censure to anyone trying to remember the extreme suffering of Palestinians, here in western countries. It’s a shame!
Israel is holding more than 1000 Palestinian political detainees under brutal conditions since the beginning of occupation, but no one cared. 240 Palestinians died this year alone before the escalation the last few days but also no media coverage
Wow you earn my respect. You were in a tough situation and still spoke the truth. Any human with a heart can notice the evil doing of an oppressor.
Boils my blood… he LITERALLY expressed his condolences and condemned it before he said a thing. Then was accused of not condemning it.
You are not human and not even an animal, you are a creature that is OK with murdering children where everyone knows now that your officials lied about killing Isra_children while it had been proved that they killed Palestinians children
Margaret Hodge grinning while Owen discusses Palestinian deaths is yet another reason why I cannot vote for the current Labour Party. It's sickening.

I absolutely do not have any form of respect for such people who think that it is only okay for Israel to protect their people and not Palestinians…. How sick there minds are…
One person in that interview sat there and condemned the slaughter of innocent human beings on both sides of a fence. The other sat there outraged and condemned the murders on one side of a fence, whilst justifying the brutal murder of innocent human beings on the other side.
Watching her face through that was appalling. Whenever he mentioned any attempts at peace, or any response short of bombing the sh*t out of Gaza, her face turned to utter fury. But when he mentioned Palestinians at 9:13 being killed and the interviewer mentions Israeli babies being killed? Absolute sh*t eating grin until Owen points out that Palestinian babies are also being killed, then she turns to fury again.
