A whole host of things could happen.
So we don't have that freedom to operate inside Britain.
This is something that always amazes me because...
Russian state television was banned in Europe and America because we're propagandists or whatever, the Kremlin media machine, or these kind of tired old tropes that we hear, which is deeply rooted in Russophobia.
But what they're really saying is the people of Europe and America are stupid.
People are able to...
disseminate fact from fiction.
They're able to watch a news report and decide whether it's propaganda or whether it's true.
They can make that decision themselves, and they should be able to make that decision themselves in a free and democratic country that operates with freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
So, you know, it always strikes me as quite bizarre that they keep saying, well, we uphold freedom of the press.
Well, in fact, the European Union has sanctioned a journalist, someone I know, Hussein Doru, who is a journalist for Red Media.
They sanctioned him because of
his work they said he's closed i think they accused him of something to do with the russian state but it was because of his reporting on uh on palestine so there's no way that they uphold freedom of the press i i myself am being investigated for potential terrorist activities based on my journalism nothing else that's it for my journalistic um journalistic reports so you know where where does where's the press freedom can i walk into
um in into the united states can i can i you know freely walk around and start interviewing people can i interview donald trump can i sit down and speak to the people on the ground of course not we're banned it's an absurdity it is freedom is alive and kicking and it's it's also a little bit bewildering it's it's surprising for me and it's an ominous sign i would say as an american to see people arrested in britain for criticizing israel
Exactly.
The King David Hotel.
And many others.
Well, it's a bizarre, dystopian situation.
You've probably seen, but in Britain...
uh i guess maybe six months ago the government moved to ban a group called palestine action and these were these were protesters that were throwing paint airplanes or whatever they were trying to stop a genocide and britain prescribed it as a terrorist organization i think against all the legal advice that they were given they ignored that and they went ahead
