YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On The Freedom Side LIVE, Thursday, 9/11 at 3pm ET/12pm PT, Rania Khalek and Eugene Puryear are joined by special guests:

Giorgio Cafiero, the CEO of Gulf State Analytics, joins the show to discuss Israel’s bombing of Hamas negotiators in Doha, Qatar, as they gather to discuss Trump’s “ceasefire” proposal. Qatar, which hosts the US military's Central Command, condemned the Israeli strike, but did not militarily respond. Cafiero will discuss the unprecedented Israeli attack on a regional US security partner, the dubious chances for ceasefire talks and the threat of greater regional war.

Tadhg Hickey, a comedian and activist, joins the show aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla after Israeli drone strikes hit two ships attempting to break the siege of Gaza. Despite another Israeli attack on the humanitarian mission, Hickey and flotilla participants aren’t turning back, determined to stop Israel’s starvation of Gaza as it reaches catastrophic levels.

Jon Elmer, contributing editor at The Electronic Intifada, joins the show to discuss Israel’s bombing of Gaza City and its impending ground invasion. Elmer will provide an update on the Palestinian resistance, as Gaza’s fighters continue to strike military targets and settlements despite suffering losses in 700 days of genocidal war, in which Israel has failed to achieve its stated military goals.

Ju-Hyun Park, a member of Nodutdol and the Web Editor at BreakThrough News, joins the show to break down why ICE stormed a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia. Nearly 500 workers were arrested, including American citizens and Korean visa holders in the largest single-site immigration raid in U.S. history. Park will explain why ROK politicians accuse the Trump admin of using this as a form of “blackmail” in trade talks in which Seoul pledged billions for U.S. investments in exchange for lower tariffs.

José Luis, a Mexican journalist with Venezuelanalysis, joins the show to discuss the Trump administration’s escalation against Venezuela, including the deadly US drone strike on a boat in Caribbean waters that killed 11 people, with Washington offering no evidence for its claim that the vessel was tied to Venezuelan drug cartels. With Trump signaling possible military strikes inside the country and deploying fighter jets to the region, Luis will explain the renewed U.S. push for regime change and Venezuela’s mobilization of its armed forces and Bolivarian Militia in response.
