israel is a terror state the terrorists that terrorize i'll testify my television televise i'm telling lies how many more resolutions have to be violated how many more children have to be annihilated this is not a war it is systematic genocide for whatever they try palestine will never die free palestine free palestine free palestine. hello, i'm chris

williamson and you're watching palestine declassified. broadcasting twice a week, we're the only tv show that's dedicated to of investigating and exposing the israeli regime's global war against solidarity with the illegally occupied people of palestine. in today's show, we'll be covering the growing popularity of cuds day and the frantic efforts of zionist extremists to undermine and sabotage it. record numbers are expected at this year's rallies, because the world has been awoken by the unspeakably horrific atrocities being... perpetrated by the zianist entity in gaza and the occupied west bank. has been looking at the history of kud's date and the extraordinary efforts by the zianist lobby to close it down. quds day is celebrated all over the world traditionally on the last friday of ramadan. it is a day of international solidarity with the palestinian people named with the arabic word for jerusalem, the capital of palestine. kuds day was introduced in 1979. quds day was

a response to jerusalem day in which jewish settlers rampage around the quds, which they called jerusalem, chanting racist slogans including may your village burn. the zionist entity heightened attempts to suppress quds day after the ghaza massacre between 2008 to 2009. the worldwide revoltion against the of massacre led to a significant rise in support for the palestinians and worldwide protests. good stay is marked throughout muslim and arab. countries in over 80 islamic and non-islamic countries in total. in the west, these include the united states of america, canada, australia, germany, spain, the united kingdom, france, and greece. the muslim unity displayed in kuds day is a threat to the zionist entity and its supporters and assets in the west and elsewhere. accordingly, they mobilized to smart and denounce kuds day and to claim that its celebration exhibits extremism and anti-semitism. in the uk,

zionist groups have been attempting sabotage the celebration for more than 15 years. in the us, zionist entity assets have gone on the offensive. the anti-deformation league denounced the quds day in 2016 as hateful of demonstration of anti-israel and anti-semitic sentiment. in 2022, it ludicrously labeled calls for the dismantling of zionism as genocidal ambitions. germany bundis am schutz or federal office for the protection of the constitution in english, is the domestic intelligence agency. in 2019, it published a deeply racist report on antisemitism in islamist extremism. it specifically singled out could stay and denounced a huge range of muslim political groups as extreme. all were labeled with designs created notion of islamic antisemitism. the report openly states that german intelligence spies on

peaceful and legal muslim activists, so long as they're defined as islamist, racist term which effectively covers any muslim active in politics. the temporary zionist entity continues its onslaught of ethnic cleansing and murder in gaza and throughout the region. complicit western governments continue to try and repress pro-palestine sentiment, but this year the celebrations of kudstate go ahead in a situation where support for palestine. is a historic high as the result of the genocide in gaza. joining me in the studio as usual, is our resident expert david miller. david's an academic and a former professor at bristol university, and he's now a senior research fellow at the center for islam and global affairs at estamble zaham university. he's also a co-director of the lobby watch dog spinwatch and he's a leading british scholarly critic of israel. our guests contributor today is nazim ali who joins us via zoom. in his professional life, nazim is a pharmacist. but he's also passionate

pro-palestine campaigner, and it was his activism that brought him to the attention of the zionist lobby. these extremists subjected him to seven year long malicious hate filled campaign and pressurized. the general pharmaceutical council to strike him off, thankfully, the despicable ploy to destroy nazim's career and deprive him of his livelihood was rejected. welcome to the show. nazim, what's been your experience of cudsday in the united kingdom? hi chris, hi, thanks for having me. um, it's been very interesting, i went to the first one in 1988, it's a very inclusive protest that occurs every single year, as latifer said the uh uh prequel there um on the last friday of every ramadan, we actually have it mainly a sunday in england because of it's a weekend, um, probably the safest annual rally ever in the history of the united kingdom without doubt, i don't have any arrests, if anything the

arres happened with the counter protesters, it's unique actually, it seems to galvanize the far right, are the bnp etc and designers to come and protest against us. together so it's one of the only few um processions um where you'll get the country demonstrators uh having a union jack having a zinis flag far right stickers all over them coming together so it's helped unite um these right really extreme right-wing uh groups uh but over the years absolutely peaceful from our side absolutely yeah well so that's been my experience of it mean and i've attended the the could stay demonstration last year and and can certainly endorse everything you've just said there nezim, but david is they've been trying to suppress the cudsday for for 15 years, haven't they? they have, they don't like it, and they don't like it because of course it's a militant uh demonstration and it doesn't pull its punches, it says you know this is cool, this is the capital of

palestine, it's not the capital of israel uh and of course they've been trying uh in the uk, certainly it's the case in nazim's case especially, but also in in the us where they under defation league have been very active, we've talked about that many times in this show before, and also in that case in germany, a truly extraordinary case there where the the german intelligence services were actually smearing and labeling pro palestine demonstrators as being somehow uh effectively nazis and uh this is the kind of stuff you get from the designers of course we've seen this in many, many occasions and many episodes of the show, this is what they do, they want to stop any possible expression of support for palestinian rights, well nazim mean i how does couldsday then differ would you say from from other pro- palestine marches? mean i think is origin is origin story i think is really important again as a mentioned it was initiated by the late aini um and it differs in the sense that it does

come from a real political base uh it comes from point of no compromise with the oppressor it comes from very anti-colonial standpoint um and it's very strong on that and it's all about freedom and it's all about removing the chains of colonialism and oppression, understanding the fact that palestine is the key, so wherever there's a pression going on in the world, wherever there's colonialism still in its various forms existing, if we can unlock the situation of palestine, it will unlock every other puzzle that's going on, that's the uniqueness of of of courds there, and that's why it's so important, and come rain wind or shine cris in england, it it takes place. doesn't matter if it's because it's in ramadan it changes 10 days every year so we have it when it's snowing we have it when it's hailstones thunderstorms we've never cancelled excepting covid and then we went online yeah no absolutely well david i believe you're speaking at this years could stay demonstration in london aren't you i

mean that kind of demonstrates doesn't the sort of serious politics of the of the organizers when you agree well it does i mean since i've won my case at industrial tribunal i've not had a single uh uh invitation um to speak cancelled uh which is unusual before before my uh tribunal uh judgement was released um most meetings that was invited to were canceled or indeed sometimes there were attempts by pro- palestine campaigners to cancel my meetings as well not just designers but also uh people from the palestine solidarity campaign this headquarters have tried to stop me from uh from speaking at at psc branches but this is an indication really that the organizers of this demonstration are serious that they're serious about their anti-sianism and and about not compromising the sionism, sionism is a form of racism, it's a genocidal ideology, everybody can see that now, and we should have nothing to do with sainism, sionism is something which should be challenged and we should be moving towards an eradication of zionism as a as

racist ideology, and not all of the pro-palestin movement, i'm afraid to say uh would endorse such politics, no we do and we talked in this show haven't we about the the need really for design. ization process to basically eradicate this kind of racist ideology from the from the country and indeed from from the world, but what's your assessment of the palestine? solidarity movement today, i mean david just mentioned there that previously when he's had speaking engagements he's had objections indeed from uh the palestine solidarity campaign, i mean what's your thoughts about that today? yeah, i mean, look, i think we know there's always been a history, especially in the uk of certain organizations infiltrating other organizations and trying to change the narrative, and as david just alluded to, it's imperative we stick to the anti sign. narrative um because there's a lot of blowback format format, especially when we

are being absolutely determined to take on zionism, it causes a lot of consternation of certain people and a bit of fear of the blowback and the potential of consequences, whatever they are that people and organizations feel, and some organizations don't want and mean this respectfully if i can, don't want to be tired under the same type of label as other organizations etc etc. bit of a cop out if you ask me um i don't think there's any space to compromise uh when it comes to palestine when it comes to talking about uh far right um ideologies like zisism and we've got to be out there and we've got to put it a plate and serve it. well david, mean you despite the the 15-year long campaign by the zianists to try and destroy a could stay, mean the national demonstrations getting. bigger and bigger every single year, and as i've said in the introduction, i think we're expecting record

attendances at the uh, the demonstrations this year. what do you think that says? well, it says that the movement for palestine, palestinian liberation is on the march and that it's rising, it support for it is rising across the whole world, including in countries like western countries where the governments are supporting the zianist on gaza, but the population is becoming more and more radical in support of the palestinians and could say is is a... cutting edge of that and uh we see the the increased consciousness that there is in the country and the increasingly increasing inability of the zionists to stop this kind of campaigning and so so so we have the situation where we look at this the other day just in in the show where the government is trying to step in and to to divide the movement by labeling some parts of the palestine solidarity movement as being extremist now of course this will this is going to fail but it's as an indication of the threat that they face that they feel that they face from the palest insolidarity movement and uh nazim, the uh the attendance at the the kudsday demonstrations is is

incredibly uh mixed isn't it, very diverse attends, a big big jewish contingent for for example, i believe is that briefly, i mean that's true isn't it, absolutely, absolutely, i mean it's a very family friendly um protest, lot of children come along with their families with their parents and we have a large contingent of the jewish people, especially rabbies from neutral cart movement. as well as um other jews as well he come antis jews who come to the procession, in fact it's very multi faith and people of no faith attend as well and even from speakers list if you go back historically is a big variety from the far left to people who are more sort of religious coming from a religious perspective and so on and so forth so yeah very very diverse no indeed well we'll come back in a in a moment to our discussion um after our next report about the truly. that the zionist lobby went to in their efforts to ruin the career of our guest

nazim ali. the london pharmacist nazim ali has finally won his long-running legal battle against zionist regime proxies. it all started in 2017 when nazim ali spoke at the kudsday rally. zines complained about his antiness comments to the police. the crown prosecution service refused to press charges. designers took a private prosecution that was eventually stopped by the cps. they took out a judicial review against the cps and lost. in january 2019, alli's professional regulator, the general pharmaceutical council, said there was no case to answer, but gave him a warning for being offensive. the caa then bullied the regulator into reversing its position in july of that year. the council concluded his words were not anti-semitic. in november 2020, but the uk lawyers for israel joined the campaign

against antisemitism to continue to harass ali. in december 2020, uklfi complained to the body which regulates the regulator, the professional standards authority for health and social care, or psa. the intimidation worked and the psa took the gpc to court, at which point the gpc folded and offered no defense. the high court then sent the case back to the gpc, which made the absurd determination that two of ali's remarks were objectively, if unintentionally antisemitic, however, it gave him a warning as before. the zionists were still not happy and appealed to the court to get ali sacked. in march this year, the court declared that there was no case to answer. this is a historic and hard fought victory. but who are the zionist groups who have bullied and intimidated the professional regulators into such submission?

the campaign against antisemitism took up the cudels first. the caa is a creature. the zinis regime. it was set up to attack the pro-palestine movement with fake anti-semitism allegations. much of its early funding came from the jewish national fund. the racist land theft group, which is one of the four so-called national institutions in israel. the uk lawyers for israel is a group which appears to have been set up under the auspices of the israeli ministry of foreign affairs. its whole purpose is to use law fare tactics to manipulate. violate the law and bully british institutions into doing its bidding. the case tells us how foreign agents the zinist regime can harass, bully and intimidate so effectively that they can, in effect, occupy the professional bodies regulating the profession of pharmacy. this is what state capture looks like. it also tells us that people can fight back and win.

in fact, this is one of number of recent victories against the zionist movements. the... tide is turning, well congratulations on your historic wing, nazim, i mean it, it was been a great relief to to finally resolve this, what can only be described as nightmare? yeah, yeah, absolutely, seven years long, and um, you know, every point, every part that we won, they would come back, and the interesting thing is, chris, um, lot of this didn't cost any of these campaigning organizations, the... the zinest ones any money apart from the judicial review if i recollect correctly um because they've been pressurizing the powers that be to to take these cases on in this last one i think it's important to know that - as they lost they had to pay the psa has to pay costs it had 4300 pound of its own costs and 13000 of the

gphc's cost to pay so that's all come from a government fund and that is tax payer's money £56 pound. just to get me struck off, which they failed to do, which makes no sense when the gphc committee, fitness and practice committee, have been well within the their rights to find a determination that they found, um, and they found me that a warning was ample enough, so questions need to be asked really, what made the psa take this back to the high court at expense of the taxpayers money? no, indeed, the questions certainly do need to be asked, but i mean david, i mean, what do you make of of of nazim's? me seems absolutely crazy doesn't he? you have to go through what four different uh processes, numerous different processes actually involving seven in fact separate organizations between the zinis, the police, the courts and and the regulators, mean what's that tell us about the nature of the zinest lobby? well, it tells you that they uh intend to intimidate, bully and harass any organization that gets in their

way and they intend to be able to occupy those organizations, so that's it's been saying, these were... organizations which did it off their own but the designs didn't even have to lift finger in some some cases because the organizations took each other to court and fought like rats in the sack to to to more effectively implement the zionist uh the zionist organizations wishes so what we have is is not just an occupation of these regulatory bodies the regulator of pharmacists and the regulator of the regulator of farm licists not just occupied but effectively captured by the state of israel and and doing the bidding of the state of a state of israel which is currently engaged in a genocide. this is no way to run any kind of democracy and it shows the way which the the hostile foreign power which is israel is able to actually get inside regulatory bodies and to turn them against the the purposes that are intended to be there for. it's kind of unbelievable vindictiveness isn't this? it's astonishing

it really is, but nazim, mean how was this long and and drawn out battle affected you mean personally? and and of course professionally as well, quite badly if i'm honest, um, you know, you're not used to seeing your face on the center spread of the jewish chronicle front page, being called a preacher of hate, um, terms like islam is being used, and they do it deliberately, so all the way from the right-wing press in the uk to the right-wing press in america and and in israel itself, so if anyone was going to work with me and google my name as which people do these days, all this stuff comes up, so it's all... planned, it's all done in a very methodical way, the way they release the news, it first comes in the more zinus press and then it comes in the mainstream press, two, three weeks later, it follows a set pattern, and of course it affects your mental health, affects your well-being, it affects your relationships, affects everything and your place at work, just to give you a side thing on that, the funnily enough where i work, they they contacted

every non-brown named person individual um back in 2017 saying you work for an anti-semite, how do you feel about it, but they didn't contact anyone with a brown sounding name, which shows where they're coming from really, but yeah it really does take it out of you, but thanks to friends, thanks to supports, thanks so people like yourselves who've gone through what you guys have gone through, and that energy helps to stand up and fight the fight, which we have to do collectively. well, the old maximum unity of strength is absolutely uppersite to here, and is so important, and i know from personal experience how how crucial that is, actually that that kind of solidarity from grassroots supporters, so i can certainly relate to that and i'm pleased that that you felt that that was something that that helped you through, what must have been? and absolutely appalling or deal, but david, i mean, what do you make of the committee's judgment then, that um, i mean they said that they they could discern no reasonable or

persuasive connection between zienists and grenfall, that you know the jewish chronicle headline highlited there, and uh, and this uh, the remark must be anti-semitic. well, i mean, first of all, the idea that a committee can decide whether something is anti-semitic on the basis that they can't see what the the connection with the zionist movement is. it's completely observed, they need to get out a bit more and to do some more research, but of course what are the connections with between green f and one, that ministers in the government are all signist, the conservative friends of israel members of that organization, but more importantly arconic, which is the company which provided the cladding, it's top shareholder is an organization called elliot management, run by guy called paul singer, he's the top doler to the friends of the israel defense forces, one, one connection, two connections, arc is an organization which which is is a... construction company which also is engaged in constructing f35 fighters which have been sent to israel to bomb palestinian children, two connections. it's not my fault, it's not, it's not anybody else's fault that they can't

perceive this, but there is a connection between greenfall and the zionis and we can we can point this out with many, many other examples and and we should be we should not be be scared of saying that, it's not antisemitic to say it, there are connections between the zionis and all sorts of apowing things which going on in the uk, including grenfall, what think about the zin so they never let the... the facts get in the way of a good old fashion smear, do they? well, that's right, i mean as everyone has now been saying, they lie and they lie and they lie, and that's that's the way, yeah, indeed. well, nazim, as as far as i'm aware, there's been absolutely no media coverage of your historic win. i mean, why is that do you think? well, it's almost they've got custard pie in their face, haven't they? seven years, seven years of chasing me, left, right and center, going through the courts, the various bodies, seven different organizations you mentioned, they've got nothing to show. for it at the end apart from what was determined back in you know 2020 a warning um so it's been um like i said waste of taxpayers money

waste of time and it's shown how vindictive they've been towards me uh like i said you know financially it's been a big burden on me emotionally health-wise it has been as well um and it just shows the nastiness of them of designist movement how vindictive nasty and pretty much evil they are. that um they just used everything they could that actually didn't affect them financially as david made a great point that they got people to inter fight on their behalf which is you know amazing but who wants to admit failure um and that's what they would have to do admit failure because they were all go about yeah we're going to get him struck off we're going to get him struck off yeah yeah no indeed i mean uh well as i say i mean you're through it now thank goodness and uh you know you've prevailed. and um and thankfully as we were saying you got that grassroots support and solidarity to to help you through what most been a terrible or deal and you've won and

think everybody will be all right thinking people anyway will be absolutely delighted that that you have got through it and you've got through it relatively on the skate not withstanding what you've already said but uh you're here and you stand victorious so you know congratulations again on that nazim but uh unfortunately that's all we got time for today so thanks for watching and and thank you to our guest nesimba ali and of course our residence expert professor david miller. remember you can follow the show on facebook, twitter and telegram where we post regular clips and updates. you can also help us to counteract the disinformation pedaled by the corporate media about palestine and the resistance of the design entity by showing today's program on your social media platforms. so until next time when palestine declassified will be back with more forensic investigations and analysis. this is chris williamson saying bye for now.

the headlines the um israel presses ahead with its relentless air strikes and shelling the besieged gaza strip as the death tool from the genocidal war approaches 3300. iran's leader ayatollah khamenei says international day this year will will be held even more gloriously as non-muslim nations will also be participating in the event, and russia says un security council's failure to condemn an attack on iran's embassy in syria serves as a clear illustration of of double standards employed by the west.
