0:00
Here, outside Downing Street, we've had this
0:04
Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar
0:17
Yeah, people waving the Islamic regime of Iran's flag there outside Downing Street
0:21
shouting Allahu Akbar. Now, we understand that that protest was organised, we think, by the Islamic Human Rights Commission
0:26
and on their website they said this. President Trump has made his genocidal intentions against the Iranian people clear
0:33
Repeated bombings in the past week against Iran's civilian infrastructure are now followed by thinly veiled threats of nuclear attacks
0:39
with the goal of complete annihilation of an entire civilisation. We will not stay silent in the face of this brazen criminality
0:47
The UK government must stop being complicit in war crimes and must immediately impose restrictions against the use of British military bases
0:54
by American bombers. They said that the protest started at 7pm outside Downing Street
1:01
So that's what's been going on this evening, right? And if we go now to what we're seeing in Iran
1:09
they are making human shields outside some of these infrastructure sites. We've got a clip of that
1:26
Now that as I understand it is against international law So you got two sides here who conceivably could be breaking international law
1:34
I have questions about how civilian these infrastructure sites really are, right
1:40
Because you've got a theocracy and a dictatorship in Iran, where every single thing, every single energy source
1:46
every single, you know, plant, every single petrochemical company, all of that stuff, is ultimately under the power of the mullers
1:54
Yeah. So that... And to an extent as well, the bridges, if they're being used to transport things like this
2:00
Every bridge, ever. Every bridge. So is it accurate to say that this is civilian infrastructure
2:07
that Trump and the Israelis are targeting? At a time of war, I would say that there's very little infrastructure
2:13
that remains civilian, because, of course, all of the military infrastructure will be using those bridges
2:17
They will be using the power plants. they'll be using all of those things
2:21
And so I think that there is an argument to say, if we remove the human shields for a moment
2:29
that they become legitimate targets because that is going to be infrastructure
2:33
that is used within the realms of trying to attack the American military
2:38
I think we'll probably leave that warm for the lawyers, to be honest. Like, probably it'll come up in The Hague if he does do all these war crimes
2:44
I have to say, Patrick, I am questioning the legitimacy of the FIFA Peace Prize
2:49
Right now. I just don think it right that a FIFA Peace Prize medalist is doing this To be completely honest I just think it completely inappropriate It insane It was the Islamic Human Rights Commission was it That an oxymoron isn it
3:03
You're an oxymoron. The Islamic Human Rights Commission, I don't think they were actually incorrect in anything they said there, to be honest
3:11
If you're talking about the destruction of a whole civilisation, I would say that's pretty genocide
3:16
They made the claim about Trump using nuclear weapons. I mean, the US have come out and clarified that
3:21
I'm glad they've... I mean, it's on the front of the Times. We will not use nuclear weapons. I'm glad they've come out to say that
3:25
but he did also say he was going to destroy the entirety of the civilisation, which sounds a bit genocidal
3:30
They've spoken as well about us being complicit as well in there, and I'm not sure that that's how I would describe the United Kingdom
3:37
I would say that we've been a little bit impotent and not... What we would give to be complicit is something interesting
3:42
We're never complicit in anything because we are irrelevant now. This is really interesting because, actually
3:48
it can be quite a binary debate, this. You've got the Islam Human Rights Commission
3:55
You've got IRG sympathisers. You've got the actual IRG in London. And you've got 12s and his comrades
4:04
which by some weird twerk of history have found themselves entirely aligned
4:10
And I think the binary aspect of this comes from what we understand
4:14
as a democracy and the West as what's right and proper good and evil And I think the Iranian regime is evil It as simple as that Are they using are they doing what we seen time and time and time again And we see it by the way
4:33
in a different... We saw it in Gaza. Yeah, but we'll see it with the Channel
4:36
Migrant Crisis. They use our sense of human rights against us, right? Time and time and time
4:43
again. And it's putting a ring of women and children, I'm not
4:47
you know, around this infrastructure site is, I mean, anyone can do that and stop us bombing anything going forward
4:54
By the way, before anyone kind of clips up, I'm not saying that we should just bomb things
4:57
despite the fact there's women and children out there. What I am saying is, surely people have to recognise
5:01
they are deliberately using our sensibilities against us. The psychology is incredibly interesting
5:07
because the Iranian regime entirely understand that. The fact that you feel like if you weren't to clarify what you were saying
5:14
that it in some way could be clipped and used against you, is testament to the fact that we find ourselves in incredibly odd times
5:20
What we've got here is a regime that will use its own people against itself
5:25
knowing that the humility of the West will find it very difficult
5:30
to stomach anybody getting killed. Is this Trump or Iran we're talking about
5:34
I think Iran are evil. I think what Trump is actually attempting to do is good
5:40
What, he's bombing people to no end? No, no, but that's the point. But there is no end. He didn't set out on this war with a clear set of targets
5:47
There was no planned regime change. There's no international cooperation. He just started bombing with Israel
5:52
There is no end goal to this. It's a forever war
