So interesting to hear Yanis discuss Terra Nullius and how it is used as a tool of dehumanisation to justify mass slaughter. It is a term we learn about as Australians, albeit often through the lens of the coloniser, but to hear it applied to the atrocity happening in Gaza is jolting and at the same time, illuminating and disturbing. Centuries later and it is still possible to dehumanise whole populations, however, the difference here is that its consequences are happening blatantly in front of the eyes of the world and is yet remains unchecked. Thanks for the discussion, so important to hear voices speaking truth as to what is happening and to cut through this dehumanising language etc.
I am a Kiwi and we learn about Terra Nullius but as a compare and contrast to how Māori were treated, and how illegal it was even under British law of the time.
As citizen of the US I appreciate you so much for speaking on the self righteous hypocrisy and performative fraudulence of America. Being a descendent of enslaved Africans, I know first hand how this country is an elitist entity whose hubris and position is very much Do as I say, not as I do when it comes to dictating what other countries should do when they always have an excuse why they can't/won't/don't address the issues of their own citizens.
In a world that seems so hopeless, we should be grateful that there are still some people like Owen and Yanis unwilling to be bought or threatened into silence.
@@florianmeier3186 All the ignorant gaza supporters which are mostly young wokies on the new bandwagon. They'll have another flag in a couple of months and Yanis and other nitwits will be their hero.
Yes, it's a genocide in plain sight. Yet, Biden and the majority of US and western leaders, as well as the majority of people in the west, refuse to notice the genocide in plain sight. The dishonesty, moral bankruptcy, and lack of character is astounding.
I don't agree that the October 7 attack should be described as horrendous, an atrocity or a terrorist attack. It was, as George Galloway said, an uprising. Lest anyone forget, generations of Israeli oppression, colonialism, apartheid, land grab, calorie restriction, and other crimes against humanity inflicted on the Palestinians have been obtained and maintained by brutal force of arms. The Palestinians have the right to rise up and obtain for themselves freedom justice and dignity.
Mr. Varoufakis has managed to give us a glimpse of hope in all this darkness. I find myself coming back constantly in times of crisis to his brave ways of analyzing situations. I still wish though this nightmare will end sooner than later. It’s becoming by the day more and more unbearable to watch. 😢
I dont understand how israel is allowed to openly flaunt their destruction and violence.......This is quite frightening and totally disgusting indeed.....Amazing show and guest. Love and freedom to all Palestinians.....
@@thez5997what other support from America and Eu do you want? They keep sending more arms to israhell since this war to kill more Palestinians and voted against ceasefire.
Amazing interview, and so beautiful reflection at the end by Yanis. As long as there are humans in the world, there is hope. Thank you Owen and Yanis !❤
Owen Jones, my appreciation to your tireless humanitarian activism! Yanis Varoufakis, simply one of my favorite thinkers, always on the right path in support of humanity and the oppressed!
Great interview. I am a 52 year old American living in the UK. In the next US election I will not be voting for Genocide Joe. I refuse to support a politician who supports a literal genocide. Since I was 18 I have voted in every US presidential election so I take voting very seriously. He has lost the leftists, progressives and everybody left of center.
I agree with you, but who you going to vote for ,senile genocide Biden or facist, nationalist Trump, Republican. Seems to me to be no difference respect to what Israel is doing. The only choice you have is the independent.
You do you however if #45 gets voted into office again because of voting 3rd party or not voting in a two party system the same applies to you as for any Tory voter, you are complicit and there is no sugar coating that one. Dont like it? Change the electoral and presidential system first. Then you can vote according to your ethics until kingdom comes and no harm done.
I just want to post a note thanking BOTH of you. I think this discussion is the best I've heard regarding this catastrophe. Owen asks all the right questions and Yanis, as always, inspires with his high intelligence and deep sense of humanity. I hope this gets the widest listenership and kudos to both of you for your courage.
One note I would add to this, the Arab countries who were ''normalizing'' deals with Israel before October 7'th were for the most part bought out by the American dollar for their ''normalization'' with Israel. Be it Jordan, Egypt and so on which gets huge amount of money from US to be on the Israeli side, Yet the population in Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia are very in favour of the palestinian people, that is why you see even a poppet ruler of Egypt talk against Israel and US. They might be frightened by Israel or US, but they are even more frightened by their own people, who holds more power and will thgen what US and ISrael can buy.
@@Ciarananthonymitchell844 yet Israel has no ability to develop introspective wisdom in this regard. Israel , once the hope of the world, is now the symbol of defiled conscience.
We never learn the same horrors continue never thought I would hear the words again apartheid, concentration camp, ethnic cleaning and genocide. I hate this world so much 😢
Owen not only stands out for his factual reporting, his humanity and his persistence in speaking truth to power. He gets the very best people to join the fight for peace. Professor Yanis is a tremendous voice for peace, justice and tolerance. A great broadcast of fact and reality over rhetoric.
Yanis is a well spoken articulate person who has not only been in government but he is also a deep thinker. Some excellent analysis and ended with some hope. Thank you
As Christian Armenians who have gone through genocide in the 20th Century by Ottomon Turks, and more recently, ethnic cleansing in Nagorno-Karabakh by Turkish-backed Azerbaijan, we find the situation in Gaza atrocious and deplorable. It is so hard for many of us to watch human beings including children get slaughtered before our eyes, and is reopening so many wounds in us 🥺...we love our Palestinian brothers and sisters, and are constantly sending prayers their way 🙏🏻. May the world stand against this violation of humanity. Palestine, stay strong...we love you and are with you all the way 🇦🇲❤🇵🇸
Israel also collaborated with Azerbaijan+Turkey in the Artsakh genocide. Erdogan's Turkey (which has been for a whole decade cooperating with Israel, no matter their discourses) has also recently executed genocide of Kurds in Afrin.
WHAT GENOCIDE. YOU STOLE LAND AND KILLED THE TURKS THERE IN THE 1990S. WITH RUSSIAN BACKING. NOW THE PEOPLE TOOK BACK THEIR LAND. DONT USE ISRAELS GENOCIDE TO COVERAGE UP YOUR GENOCIDE.
Hamas started a war. The civilian casualty rate from Israel in haza is similar to every other modern urban conflict, 20% of israeli citizens are also palestinian. It does not compare to the Armenian genocide at all. Where is the genocide in gaza?
If there was one comment from Vanis that struck a chord with me, it was "The very essense of humanity is being tested in Gaza". My view and it doesn't have any standing, but if the genocide isn't halted, our species has lost all sredibility.
As an 85yr great-grandmother, i think and feel that statement, "The very essence of humanity is being tested in Gaza". Thank you Yanis and Owen, fir acknowledging the Aboriginal situation in Australia. 🙏🌺🌿
I said on day one that this would be a genocide. I still have friends who will not speak to me as a result of my accusation. Now we know that this is exactly what is occurring. Still, people are adamantly denying the truth.
I believe Yanis to be speaking a truth that is very difficult to digest…being that I live in the US! But, what has been brought out to the light about America…has always been there, but we the citizens didn’t have a clear picture of what was taking place by our citizens and helpless to stop what we suspected was very wrong!
Thanks @Owen, Yanis is one of my fav well versed economist from whom I myself educated many times in financial terms. The knowledge he poses is unique no question about that. We need to ask him how to cripple the economy of Israel so that it can not continue its atrocity. I am sure he has unique solutions for that besides BDS movement.
BDS worked in South Africa and freeing Nelson Mandela from prison (where is was imprisoned for life for the crime of being a "violent terrorist"). Why do you imply a need for another solution besides BDS?
I'm German, post-war generation and outraged about what's going on in Gaza and the Westbank. Hope experts and activists are going to cooperate in order to stop the insane developments.
It really revives my belief in humanity watching you fight this case Owen like you own the pain. And bringing over to your show these level headed people with a heart
Always enlightening listening to what Yanis has to say! This was an extremely informative interview of a brilliant economist and human rights activist. Thank you for having him on as a guest, on your podcast. We are all better informed for having listened to his wisdom and astute insights!
Yanis was my lecturer in economics at the university of Sydney. He is brilliant and many of us loved his lectures and still love and respect him now. Please pass on my comments and greetings to him directly. I would love to have a beer or a tea with him one day.
Yes. All the elements of the crime of GENOCIDE under the 1948 Convention have been met. This is a clear case, if prosecuted by an HONEST ICC prosecutor and brought by an indefatigable party on behalf of the Palestinians that saw to it that the prosecutor AND the judge was on the straight and narrow. A Third party state can invoke the Convention. Further signators have an AFFIRMATIVE duty to invoke the Convention.
They've set an impossible goal...It's obvious that's not the goal...It's everything around the goal. And they're so arrogant they keep saying the quiet parts out loud.
@@leazawacki4966Unfortunately they are correct in their assessment. Most of the Brits and Americans can't see through it. The people with the most power to do something about it. The problem for Israel is the few that can. Compared to the total population, very few can see through it. The rest of the world are just seeing White colonial history replay.
@@leazawacki4966I think it's down to hubris - they're so used to getting away with things. What they and their lobbiests didn't bargain for is social media.
@fokkerfilms560 You are correct. It explains why their excuses and rationalizations are so sloppy and unsophisticated. You lose the ability to adequately explain your actions when you've never been held accountable for your actions.
Just an excellent video. Many thanks for it, Owen. Yanis is a truly wonderful, enlightening individual and I, too, feel more hopeful for listening to him. Thank you!
I'm living in Germany ( born British ) & horrified at their utter indifference made worse by Ursula wonder Leyen .Exactly they are soaked in blood and more so now .How can people be so backward as to be taken in by the mass slaughter, and say ok these are not real people .Every person is worthy of life I'm weary of the 7th Oct since prior to that there had been years with so many attacks .I came here in 1987 and the wall divided Berlin It was a wonderful night when it opened at Bornholmer Strasse and not one shot was fired Walls such as you describe are prisons .Sadly who will take these people .. We see how cruel other countries are re taking refugees ,
Imagine being German. There are no words to describe my shame. I am disgusted by our government and Ursula von der Leyen is highly dangerous, she is an embarrassment for humankind.
Thank you very much Owen for this conversation with Yanis. Since I heard him speak during the Greek economic crisis, I have developed deep respect for him. If the world only had more people like him! Thank you for your outstanding work 😍
Great guest! Thank you, Yanis, for the light in the end of the tunnel. Liked your optimism, hope you are right that the younger generations on both sides would search for a peaceful solutions. Time for freedom for Gaza!

Colonialist israel is only interested in the land occupied by Palestinians. No other reason for their current genocide of Palestinians.
Yes, it's a genocide in plain sight. Yet, Biden and the majority of US and western leaders, as well as the majority of people in the west, refuse to notice the genocide in plain sight. The dishonesty, moral bankruptcy, and lack of character is astounding.
