Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe video defends journalist Rula Jabril against accusations of racism following her comments about Hakeem Jeffries. The speaker argues that Jabril's Afro-Palestinian identity makes the racism claims fraudulent and asserts that the controversy is a calculated distraction used by pro-Israel interests to shield political figures from criticism regarding their ties to AIPAC.
And what does the established
Democrat Party,
Hakeem Jeffery by the name,
his name is Hakeem.
Hakeem in Arabic is an Arabic name,
which means healer.
He's not a healer, he's a divider.
He is a bought and
paid by AIPAC monkey,
with all due respect.
And I don't mean it in a racist way.
He is just basically an errand boy.
And we're done and tired of that.
Americans deserve better.
So that was Rula Jibril, and
that has created a maelstrom of
fake controversy and
people pretending to be offended.
I'll end the whole thing for
you here, but then we'll give you
the whole story including all
the fakers and posers.
Rula Jibril is half-Palestinian.
And first of all, as a person who
suffered through a genocide and
her family suffered through
a genocide, she can say whatever
the hell she likes about the people
committing and supporting and
financing that genocide.
And I don't give a goddamn what you
think about it.
But much more importantly in this
context, she's half-Nigerian.
That means she's black.
So all these people pretending that
she's racist are giant liars.
All right, Ana, tell us all this.
Even worse are the individuals who
insist on engaging in the struggle
sessions on this matter.
Please don't do that because she
did nothing wrong.
So let's get into the details here
because context does matter.
Attacking someone and
calling them a monkey because of
the color of their skin is racist.
But that's not what she did.
And everyone knows that.
So here are the details.
She is an award winning journalist
who actually specializes in foreign
affairs and immigration rights
issues.
She was born in Haifa, Israel.
Haifa, Palestine,
now considered Israel, and
grew up in the old city of
Jerusalem.
Now her father was born in Nigeria.
Her mother was born in Palestine.
So that is her background,
her heritage.
And she's often identified as being
part of the Afro-Palestinian
community, something that many of
her attackers online claimed
doesn't exist, that Afro-Palestinian
is not a thing when it-
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So they attack her for
being racist while engaging in
their own form of racism that
doesn't get called out by anybody.
So-
No, no, it's funny because I was
going to make the point they're
invalidating her identity.
They sure are, yeah.
They're like, you're not black
enough to say what you want about
black people or something along
those lines, which is maniacal
to begin with.
But I didn't even hear that they're
saying that her identity doesn't
exist.
They want to erase,
then I would say, you know what?
Whoever said that,
you're a billion times more racist.
They are.
And there's no question about it.
And I'll get later to who the
biggest racist in the country is,
spoiler alert, Zionist.
You keep going.
Now, again, she has always
identified as Afro-Palestinian and
after she was attacked by
individuals who were denying her
identity, she posted this on X.
My sisters, Rania and Rawia, and
my nieces, Ron and Razan,
beg to disagree with your opinion
that we are white women.
It's always astounding when someone
with no access to our family tree
ignore our Afro-Palestinian
history, or our ethnicity appoints
themselves the registrar of who
we are.
Now, last Tuesday, she was a guest
on Wajahat Ali's Substack to
discuss AIPAC's hold over US
politicians, our political system.
And that includes, of course,
the Democratic Party.
And as we know,
Hakeem Jeffries is deeply corrupt,
should not be the next speaker of
the House, should Democrats take
control of the House.
And I believe that what you're
about to learn about, and
what transpired over the weekend,
is really about setting the stage
and conditioning people's minds to
avoid attacking Hakeem Jeffries.
Because if you do, you're racist.
It's the same thing that Zionists
deploy when it comes to attacking
Israel as it commits ethnic
cleansing and genocide.
You can't do that because that
would make you a Jew hater.
So weaponizing identity,
essentially, for political
purposes.
It's cynical and it's disgusting.
And it hurts the cause of fighting
racism.
Because a bunch of people bought
off by AIPAC, and I don't give
a goddamn what race you're in.
You're still an errant boy.
No matter if you're white, black,
Asian, Indian.
I don't care.
I care that you're an errant boy
for a different country.
And don't come talking to us about
racism when you support the kind of
racism that murders people.
It's no big deal to murder
Palestinian kids, right?
Did you get paid enough by AIPAC,
Hakeem Jeffries, and
all of his supporters in
Washington?
You dare talk about racism after
you want to finance the slaughter
of Palestinians based on their race?
That they are inferior to
the Israelis?
So their children should be
murdered based on their race?
And you still want to run your
mouth about racism?
And you don't even mean it.
You don't mind hurting the cause of
fighting racism, as long as
the elites in Washington who say,
I'm black and I'm untouchable.
I'm Jewish and I'm untouchable.
Or whatever race or
religion they're in.
I'm untouchable because I'm on
the side of Israel.
No, you are not untouchable.
And we're going to criticize you
and I don't care what kind of BS
you cry.
Racism, anti-Semitism.
Kiss my ass.
You're a billion times more racist.
You want to keep kissing AIPAC's
ass and murdering Palestinian kids
based on their race?
Is that what you want to do while
pretending that you care about
racism?
Okay, yeah, I see who you are.
This is the energy the left needs
to adopt, okay?
Because when you give in to
the mob, when you give in to
the bad faith attacks,
you weaken your argument.
But anyway, it's pouring out of us.
We can't help but comment on it
before we even share all
the details.
But here's what Rula said in this
conversation with Wajahat Ali,
which led to, in my opinion,
these totally phony attacks.
Let's watch.
We have evidence for you.
We have a whole bunch of news items
we're going to talk about where we
see the biggest political spender
in 2026, this is a fact, is AIPAC.
AIPAC gave about $30 to $40 million
of the $63 million to take out
Abdul Saeed.
Democrats welcomed it.
Hakeem Jeffries welcomes AIPAC
money, even though AIPAC is being
funded by pro-Trump billionaires as
openly attacking Democrats.
Hakeem Jeffries says no problem.
Hakeem Jeffries took AIPAC money
and bundled it into other PACs to
help centrists and moderates.
Hakeem Jeffries and
Democratic leadership in
the past week,
I don't know if you follow
the story, they chose three
Democrats to sit on the House
Foreign Affairs Committee.
The three Democrats that they
chose, folks,
you cannot make this up,
Jared Moskowitz, Debbie Wasserman
Schultz, and Wesley Bell,
who've all been supported by AIPAC
and are pro-Israel hawks.
Make that make sense to me, Rula.
You've probably seen our band in
the UK shirt, the one we dropped
after the UK government tried
to silence us on me.
And thanks to our partners
at Shopify, we were able to get
that shirt up on ShopTYT quickly
and painlessly.
We've been running our store
through Shopify for a while now,

what I was doing.
That's the point, you don't need to
have it all figured out.

Okay, so I want to go to the next
video, so you get more context
about how this conversation
played out.
The context matters because again,
there is a difference between
attacking someone and
calling them a monkey because of
their skin color versus talking
about the corrupt intent of
a lawmaker.
A former speaker will soon be
the Speaker of the House should
Democrats take control of
the House of Representatives
following the midterms.
Calling him what she called him,
I would have avoided that because
of the reaction that you're
inevitably going to get.
But we live in a post context world
where people are acting as if she
targeted him specifically because
of his skin color when that is not
the case.
And that's what the video that I
just showed you demonstrates.
Let's go to the next one.
This is the game we are in.
We're under occupation by AIPAC
and by the Zionist genocidal lobby
that is not working to advance
America's interest or
America's security.
They're working to advance
the genocidal state of Israel,
greater Israel project.
Genocidal project.
Today in a main Israeli newspaper,
the greatest Israeli reporter,
Amir Haass, talked about
the erasure of Palestinian life
everywhere between the river and
the sea.
That what Israel is pushing to do
is cancel Palestinian completely,
completely between the river and
the sea.
And those are Israeli Jewish
citizens who are saying these
things.
And what does the established
Democrat Party,
Hakeem Jafri by the name,
his name is Hakeem.
Hakeem in Arabic is an Arabic name
which means healer.
He's not a healer.
He's a divider.
He is a bought and
paid by AIPAC monkey with all
due respect and
I don't mean it in a racist way.
To your point, and
someone mentioned this and
I know you corrected yourself,
Rula, but I just want to address
it, using monkey to anyone black
is it has terrible racial
connotations, but I think you
caught yourself and said you
didn't mean it with any racial
animosity, but-
I didn't, I didn't.
I mean, I honestly, I, you know,
it's, there's, there's these
three monkeys, one I cannot see,
I cannot hear and I cannot speak.
It reminds me of these three
monkeys.
Yeah, but I know you didn't mean
to, and then you caught yourself
and you also said you meant no
racial connotations, but you're
talking about, you know, these,
essentially what we're seeing is,
but I just wanted to address that
also, because I know it's some,
someone brought that up and I
also want to be fair to you.
I know what your intention was
and you caught yourself also.
So we're just clarifying.
Thank you. Thank you, Rula.
So she says, I don't mean it
in a racist way.
People are still offended by her
statement, pretending as though
they don't understand what she was
trying to say.
So then she takes the X
immediately and
here's what she wrote.
I am disgusted and horrified that
Hakeem Jeffries is taking money
from AIPAC amidst Israel's
genocide in Palestine.
That said, a term that I used to
describe him was inappropriate and
offensive and
should never have been used.
I apologize unconditionally.
At that point, it should be
end of story, but
it wasn't end of story.
Because of course, this had to be
exploited by corporate Democrats
who happen to be former staffers,
in some cases,
of the Biden administration,
which really helped Israel get
started with the genocide against
the Palestinian people.
And then you also have some elected
lawmakers in the Democratic Party
going after her as well,
in a concerted way, and
I'm going to show you in just
a second, but first, of course,
the California Post,
right-wing publication,
exploited this for
their own purposes.
Palestinian journalist Rula Jabril
calls Hakeem Jeffries an AIPAC
monkey, claims she didn't mean it
in a racist way.
At no point in the article did they
mention the fact that she's
half Nigerian, so that would have
been relevant information.
And then they did include a bunch
of statements from pro-Israel black
members of Congress condemning her,
including this statement from
the Congressional Black Caucus,
which happens to be very cozy with
AIPAC, I'll prove that to you in
just a minute.
To be clear, there isn't a non-
racist way to call Leader Jeffries
a black man, a monkey, or
errand boy.
Yes, there is.
Wajahat Ali, this is what happens
when we hold ourselves to such
low standards for
what's allowable in our discourse.
People get comfortable being openly
bigoted.
Well, you guys get super
comfortable aiding and abetting and
funding, picking our freaking
pockets, okay, to fund the bigotry
and the racism in the Middle East.
Any word about that?
Any thoughts about that?
Members of the Congressional Black
Caucus, am I being inappropriate by
calling you guys out because you
guys happen to be black and
I have light skin?
Is that the world that we live in?
Where you guys get that immunity?
That you want to be treated
differently because of the color of
your skin, even when you engage in
bad behavior?
Is that what you want?
Because I'm not giving into that.
I'm not giving into that.
Let me give you the rest of it.
We have to stop platforming and
trafficking in anti-black racism.
There was no anti-black racism in
that video.
At all.
The person who said it is black.
You liars.
You disgusting liars.
The person who said it is black.
What is this?
What is this garbage?
And I'll- It's a hit piece.
Okay. It's a hit job.
Okay. Let me just explain why
they're doing it and
the methods and practices real
quick.
So they did this to me.
New York Times called me anti-Muslim
when I ran for office because they
wanted to smear Bernie Sanders.
Remember, they called Bernie
Sanders, as we predicted ahead of
time, they called Bernie Sanders
an anti-Semite.
He's Jewish.
It doesn't matter because they're
going to smear you as an anti-Semite
or racist if you're opposed
to Israel.
Now, why did they never mention
that I grew up Muslim when they
were smearing me as anti-Muslim?
By the way, do I sound anti-Muslim?
Now, their new conspiracy theory is
that I'm secretly a Muslim agent.
Okay, but before I was anti-Muslim,
whatever you need to do to smear
people, and just like in this case,
they never explained that I grew
up Muslim, why?
because they don't want you to look
at the actual issue.
That's the number one thing.
Did you hear what Arula said?
She made a terrific point about
Netanyahu didn't just say from
the river to the sea.
He did from the river to the sea.
And other Israelis,
great writers, two dozen generals,
two former prime ministers are
saying we're committing a genocide
from the river to the sea.
Now, of course, American media and
the Congressional Black Caucus
don't want you to see that because
they are funded by AIPAC.
And by the Israeli lobby overall,
or their own in the case of
the media by the people who fund
the Israeli lobby, literally
the same exact people, right?
So they don't want you to notice
how evil the Israeli government is
and how racist they are.
It doesn't get any more racist.
Because they take their money.
Does it get any more racist than
murdering people based on their
race?
Would the Israelis have murdered
23,000 Israeli kids, Jewish kids?
No, everybody knows they wouldn't
have done that.
But they're Palestinians.
Their lives don't matter.
So slaughter them.
And then you get a bunch of paid
errand boys to come in and
I don't care if it's Mike Huckabee
or Ted Cruz.
Am I being anti-Latino by calling
out Ted Cruz as an errand boy,
okay?
And Hakeem Jeffries and
whoever the hell else,
I don't care what your race or
religion is at all.
You're like, no, you have to care.
Unless you care about my race,
you're a racist.
No, that's the exact opposite.
Yeah, exactly.
We're done listening to your crap.
The most important thing, guys,
and I've got a million other things
to say, but these don't, what I
need you to understand is,
the Congressional Black Caucus is
a bunch of elitists who work in
Washington and
take endless donor money.
Yep. They don't represent
actual black people.
Bingo. Okay, and
then just like Democrats,
other white Democrats don't
represent their voters,
they represent their donors.
See, what unites them is not,
they're white and they're black.
No, what unites both of those
groups is that they're corrupt.
Yes.
Okay, and so the white legislators
don't care about white or
black voters, and the black
legislators don't care about white
or black voters.
All they care about is,
where's my money?
You can't say that about
black people.
What, so I can say it about white
people?
I can say it about Latinos, but
I can't say it about black people.
I can say it about Muslims, but
I can't say it about Jews.
Who made up these rules?
All right, the elites who are
pretending to represent,
there's no conflict between Arabs
and black people.
They're trying to create a conflict
between Arabs and black people.
They're trying to drive a wedge.
Trying to make sure that you don't
get united because if you get
united, you might be opposed to
their donors who they take money
from, they take bribes from.
Last thing that's important in that
context, Congressional Black
Caucus is not a unified whole.
So there are progressives within
the Black Caucus that are great
progressives and
don't engage in this stuff, okay?
But the corporate establishment
Democrats that lead the
Congressional Black Caucus are
among the most corrupt people in
Washington.
Not because they're black, but
because they take tons and tons of
donor money and betray black
voters on behalf of their donors.
That's why they try to distract
you and go, let's be racist
against Muslims.
That'll be the right way to fight
racism, sure.
No, you can kiss my ass.
We're not going to apologize to
anyone over this.
They should apologize.
When is Hakeem Jeffries going to
apologize for all the Palestinian
kids that he helped murder with
the financing he helped get for
the brutal Israeli government?
I demand that apology.
Otherwise, he's a racist
against Muslims.
What happened now?
Well, he is a racist.
That is true.
I'm 100% sure.
But everyone in media will
ignore that.
Look.
Because they're all racist.
They don't think Muslim lives
matter at all, right?
Put me wrong, cable news.
Care once about Muslim lives.
Never.
Instead they'll be like, yeah,
yeah, don't, shut up.
Kill the Muslims.
Hakeem Jeffries, protect him.
He's one of the elites.
What excuse should we use?
Race, race.
We'll destroy the idea of fighting
racism so
we can help the black elites.
Exactly.
So going back to the Congressional
Black Caucus, as I promised,
the receipts in regard to
the AIPAC money that flows into
their coffers.
More than half of its current 61
members have been endorsed or
funded by the American Israel
Public Affairs Committee, AIPAC.
In the 2023-2024 election cycle
alone, AIPAC endorsed 26 of
the caucus's members,
raising $4.6 million for them and
another $3.5 million for
black Democratic candidates.
Which helps you understand why it
is that Kamala Harris had a real
difficult time differentiating
herself from Joe Biden when it
came to supporting genocide.
And in the end,
she ended up losing the election,
losing the race.
Now, I don't think that was
the only reason why she lost
the race.
But I will admit that there were
plenty of people who backed
Kamala Harris who were super salty
toward the Arab community because
they didn't want to vote in favor
of someone from an administration
who had funded the slaughter of
their people in the Middle East.
But anyway,
Richie Torres jumps in because,
of course he did,
one of the biggest recipients in
Congress of that AIPAC money.
He says calling a black man
a monkey is racist, full stop.
If Wajahat Ali and
Rula were on the far right,
no one on the far left would have
any trouble condemning them for
dehumanizing a black man in racist
terms, the silence is deafening.
Except-
No, it's not.
All I hear is all of your loud
mouths saying it's totally okay to
murder Palestinians based on their
race, but I'm so offended.
That's all I hear.
What are you talking about?
You're in cahoots with
the mainstream media.
They made this a gigantic story.
What silence are you talking about?
And yes,
Richie Torres works for
the Israelis.
He's taken what,
five and a half million,
six million, some-
Two million.
Some absurd millions of dollars
from AIPAC in the Israeli lobby to
serve them as a servant.
That's what the white servants do.
That's what the black servants do.
That's what every servant of
Israel does.
And if half the Congressional Black
Caucus took money from AIPAC to
serve Israel, then half
the Congressional Black Caucus
is guilty.
And don't tell me, no, no,
they're allowed to do corruption.
They're allowed to help murder
Palestinians because they're black
and you can't criticize them.
Does it look like I'm hesitating?
By the way, attacking
Willa Jabril like that is
the equivalent of attacking
a Holocaust survivor and
calling them racist.
So you think your family was
murdered in a genocide or
in a Holocaust?
So what?
I'm going to call you racist for
being opposed to the people
committing the genocide.
No, you've murdered my family
members.
I get to call you whatever the F
I want, man, okay?
And what you did is a billion times
worse and you know it.
Every one of these is liars.
We're not playing their games
anymore.
You should hate them.
Everyone who takes money from AIPAC
that helps murder those kids in
Gaza, you should hate them.
And I don't give a damn what
they're racist.
And now like I'm Turkish,
you're going to tell me, no,
you're not allowed to say certain
things about Turks.
Yes, I am.
You're not the boss of me.
And Dr. Oz, he's also Turkish.
If you called him a savage because
he's Muslim,
I'd have an objection to that.
That would be problematic.
If you called his actions in
the Trump administration savage,
I wouldn't have any problems
with that.
Because it's true, yeah.
Because it's true and
it's related to that context and
not because he's Turkish or
Muslim.
That's hard to,
Ana, that's the other thing.
The media pretends that's hard to
understand.
No, they understand.
What is context?
They understand.
I am more on a reporter.
I don't know what context is.
You are not allowed to use
forbidden words.
They're allowed to murder people.
But you're not allowed to use
certain words, even if it's not
the right context.
Even if it's apples and oranges.
Now, come on, you're all morons.
And maybe they are, or maybe
they're pretending to be morons.
So they could all make sure you
don't know their beloved Netanyahu
did murder from the river to
the sea.
And Hakeem Jeffries to this day
is backing him.
Look, guys, if you don't know,
after he met with Jared Kushner
about housing and affordability,
he then appointed Moskowitz.
Just like they were talking about
on the show, Debbie Wasserman
Schultz and Wesley Bell,
three of the biggest radical
Zionists in Congress, to be in
charge of foreign affairs,
including Moskowitz heading
the Middle East Committee.
And Moskowitz came out right
afterwards and said,
we will support Israel
unconditionally.
You hear that?
I wonder if he said boy.
I wonder if that's how they refer
to Hakeem because that would be
racist.
And I would be shocked if they
didn't do that.
Hey, should we get our boy to run
an errand for us, okay?
Because he does run errands for
them. He just put all three of
those guys in charge in Congress.
If the Democrats win,
there will be no change in
Israeli policy.
Thanks, Hakeem.
That could have helped us win
elections.
60% of the voters are opposed
to Israel.
But Hakeem Jeffries gave that away.
He betrayed you because he took
money from the Israelis because
he's corrupt no matter what race
he's in.
You don't get to hide anymore,
Hakeem.
None of you get to hide.
You support genocide, and
you support racism that is so
lethal that it's murdered 23,000
kids, a lynching of epic
proportions.
And you pretend you dare to
complain about racism?
You are the racist.
Look in the mirror.
I mean, there's nothing left to
be said.
Stop weaponizing race for
your cynical political purposes.
It's not going to work anymore.
It's really not going to work here.
And more importantly,
this is the most important message
to the left, who I think are well
meaning, but
they fall for it every time.
Stop negotiating with terrorists.
Stop pretending as though these bad
faith attacks are something that
you need to cave to.
Stop condemning someone you know is
not racist, and play into, I mean,
they play into these attacks every
single time.
Watch how Hadali did.
How about you don't do that?
How about you understand the person
you interviewed on your own damn
show, and you understand that she's
not a racist and
didn't engage in a racist attack?
Understand the context in which she
used that word, it had nothing to
do with his skin color.
It had everything to do with
the fact that Hakeem Jeffries is
a corrupt piece of crap.
And a racist.
And a racist, okay?
Because here's the thing,
the left loves to lose.
Maybe they don't think they love to
lose, but they sure act like it.
Stop giving them an inch.
They don't deserve it.
And they're only going to use
it against you.
They do it every time.
They use it as an admission of
guilt.
That's what they do.
And those corrupt establishment
figures who have all taken bribes
from the Israeli lobby,
all just attacked a black woman and
pretended that they were doing it
to help the issue of racism.
You all attacked a black woman.
We have eyes and ears.
We can see we know what race she is.
You're absurd.
Your love for Israel and
the money they give you is
disgusting.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets his wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated on our
live shows.
