Big thanks to Sapir for sharing her experience 👏 Hope to see a million more lefties from her generation rising up ✊ can't come soon enough - and to Sapir, please keep going + keep getting louder 📢
Peter , what an interesting guest. Thanks for showing us different voices from Israeli society that we would not get to hear from otherwise. Left voices in Israel may be fewer in number in today’s climate but with people this smart and committed they have a lot to add.
We look from the outside as pro-Palestinian, non-Jewish, anti-Zionists snd can only look with a measure of awe at the courage of a Jewish Istaeli taking a stand against right wing extremeism. Our activism costs us little, whereas hers does. Her example also teaches us that nothing is simple in this conflict but the Palestinians are going to need all the help they can get to survive within the Occupied Territories and Gaza.
@@rexiioper6920I was born in the US . My family came here 300 years ago . But it would not be wrong to say I live on “ occupied “ land and benefit from it . All we can do is the best with the hand we are dealt . It is the rare person who can see truth and injustice when it contradicts the tribe they are born into . The subject of this interview is doing that in an extreme situation ; and acting on it which takes courage . I would be interested in hearing your story of how you perceive an injustice in the world that makes you the enemy of your tribe , and the actions you are taking to rectify it .
Thank you Peter for your moral compass , intelligence , and courage … And that goes doubly for Sapir . Your clarity and your courage are rare and appreciated ! 🙏
Thank you for this interview, inspiring to know her activism. This is active humanity! I wish her much success touching the heart of all Israelis and driving change.
Thank you Peter & Sapir for giving us the gift of hearing such a strong, wonderful, hopeful & blessedly surprising view from such an amazing human being. Asd Sapir, personally & from this ol' Irish American woman I whole heartedly send to you my prayers along with the sentiment expressed in every word of the classic Irish tome which starts; "may the road rise to greet you, may the wind be ever at your back..." Godspeed to you both. Btw- wanted to know if there has been any theory's about a direct correlation between the increasing prevalence of this (mask off) outwardly, openly racist attitude held & expressed twords tbe Palestinians throughout Israeli society which may link to the Israeli govt's ever increasing number WB's apartheid walls constructed because with these walls comes a drop in folks experiencing any 'reality' based interaction with them which creates a vacuum that the Israeli govt exploits by filling that hole with self serving & terrifying propaganda of myths about who, what, why, etc re; The Palestinians are all terrorists, etc..?
Iraqi Jews are our brothers and sisters. It is a shame they left their country. Our GP was a Jew, our neibours in the same streets. When Israel was established they are forced to leave not by Iraqi people. مزراحي Our GP live in Canda , his boys are in NY as neurosurgeons still contact them . Mosul people are very clever Iraqi irrespective of religion.
Same thing happened to some italian and greek immigrants in Australia. To avoid racism, became racist towards anyone else from the Mediterranean all because of not being the 'right kind of white' like how mizrahim arent the 'right kind of jewish' for the zioniat state
Under the global colonial cult lore of sovereignty there are three main grades of servant. Honorable Leader, Sir, and Mister. All three are titles of chattel. That is, natural persons as property of a fictional sovereign. The trinity is Master, Servant, and their union as a single corporate fiction. Monopoly is the manifestation of sovereignty. Is the Israeli Shekel legal tender in Gaza and the WestBank? Are all diplomats paid with Dollars? Do almost all people accept being addressed as the title of a so-called sovereign state banker? Publish, _ARAB and JEW # CHATTEL,_ on so-called sovereign monopoly money. Remember that monopoly is slavery.
Excellent conversation. Sapir is a humanitarian. They need many many more of her in Israel which has devolved into a state of robber barons and karens. Not to mention an Apartheid state.
Roberto Mangabeira Unger at Harvard has lectured on the global political economy in terms of universal vs. local heresies. The way the American-Israeli order works is through liberalism understood as a universal heresy. To this very day, the basis of the world order remains the French revolution. Without that moral legitimacy as the "grande nacion" defending the liberal revolution, America is just another Anglo republic. Bonapartism was quite different from Washingtonianism, but it's Bonapartism that gives DC its global legitimacy and power. George Washington would be horrified at what DC has become, but Napoleon Bonaparte would applaud it heartily. DC is now a semi-fascist regime with the typical Bonapartist mix, military superiority combined with vested national interests. Anyway, the point here is that liberalism is a universal heresy, its claims encompass the whole world. Communism serves the same role for China. What I would like to ask the speaker is whether her Left politics today is grounded in any universal principle or value, that can become a model of power across the globe. Does identity politics has limits, in other words, without some underlying universalism that is not allied with liberalism.
Peter, I'm not going to lie. Before this ongoing ramping of the genocide I was much more critical of your views. I considered you too much liberal zionist with a good heart. But I think the level of pain and agony that we are witnessing made you move to a more critical (non-zionist?) position, and I learned to listen to to more people that have different opinions than mine but still have indeed a good heart. I don't want to say that we are all now more "centrists" because political spectrum definitions are a joke. But we are finding more our singular humanity that does not fit into a feel good tv commecial or hollywood movies. The parading has shifted for good.
What an absolute BS you wrote here! You don’t like liberal Zionists but prefer critical (post truth, post modernist nonsense) position. Political centrist is not a joke but evidence of sanity that, ou well, you don’t have
Do you see humanity in some Muslims? Especially when they abuse minorities in Pakistan and Egypt. By the way what happened to many minorities in Muslim countries over the past 100 years? Where did they go?
When I hear radical, I feel nauseated. I am tired of all kind of activists, who turned out to be demagogue’s, communists/socialists and BS’rs. She has a common ground … until she wouldn’t because they will dispose of her as used washing cloth
I have my doubts if you even listened . Sitting at a screen trying to undermine other people’s work in real life . Get outside and interact with real people . They are more hopeful and complicated than you seem to comprehend .
No, neither of these two are moral. Leinart, coddled in the USA is irrelevant. And Sapir is a rebel without a cause. A clue Sapir: Tel Aviv is a,settlement. Please, go to Gaza.
Sapir you need to be proud of your ethnicity, you are Iraqi and Iraq has a rich history, very ancient and amazing civilization, Israel state is a 20th century creation, a western colonial project, British Israeli Historian Ilan Pappe wrote many books about it. Saying that anybody who is a Jew is from the Levant is complete nonsense because many converted to Judaism through centuries and many were Jews and then converted to Christianity or Islam. So do not be apologetic about your ethnicity be proud of who you are. Samia
If she will do genetic testing it probably will say west Asian with maybe central Asian admixture. Historically, Islam was not an offer that you could refuse for reasons that we can’t mention here
@@NJIT22 ok then, there is ancestry DNA testing that will solve the mystery, and also my own ancestor from my maternal line originated from what we call today Italy ( Toscane) am I going to Italian embassy and claim Italian citizenship?...we all originated from somewhere centuries ago but it does not make any sense to claim the land back 3000 years ago.....so what about the Ameridians, Aborigines and so on, white Europeans in North and South America must leave the land and go back to Europe then...if I follow your logic...
I have heard about this persons brave, passionate activism from another channel I follow. Thank you for highlighting her story on this podcast.
Thank you, Sapir, for listening to your heart, for speaking from your heart, and for letting your heart inform your activism.

Fantastic conversation. The fight for equality continues. Thank you both.
What a brave woman. What an informative interview.
Thank you, for this conversation which adds both personal and historical contexts to the presentation of a well founded argument.
Thank you for sharing your stories, your insights, your soul, Sapir. Keep up the good fight. The world, and Palestine, need you. Be safe, friend.

Your comment said what I wanted to say better than I could say it !✊🏽

Learned a lot. Thanks

Arabic language and religion is same between Palestinians and all Arabs . The difference is accent.

Note to those who prefer usong the closed captions- although this video says the only CC option is Hebrew they are in English

Interesting to see humanity in some Jews, the problem is the cruality askenas and colonise people, hope you to be safe

רק 80 שנה עברו מאז השואה, ועדיין יש פה יהודים שלא הבינו כלום. עצוב..
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Do you feel accepted among Palestinians🇵🇸 being openly Quire?🏳️🌈
Who are these Intellectual Jewish Muhajideens! Pristine analysis!! If they govern Israel , Israel must exists
And if they don’t what are you going to do about it?
No, neither of these two are moral. Leinart, coddled in the USA is irrelevant. And Sapir is a rebel without a cause.

Iraqi is not her ethnicity but a geographical area from where her lucky ancestors escaped
If she will do genetic testing it probably will say west Asian with maybe central Asian admixture. Historically, Islam was not an offer that you could refuse for reasons that we can’t mention here
It's a zionist project
Not western
Stop dragging the west into your project
