We discuss the US bombing campaign they witnessed first-hand in Yemen, the resilience of the Yemeni people, the history of terror against their people, and their attempt to block Israel’s genocide against Palestinians, which continues to be enabled by the West.Katie Halper: Tell us what you were just doing in Yemen, what brought you there and what you observed.Clare Daly: We're a bit overwhelmed still. We only came back yesterday. We were there on invitation at the National Conference on Solidarity with Palestine, the theme being You Are Not Alone. And this was the first time that they had international visitors in Yemen, in the midst of a US blitz. We were not disappointed, it was just from start to finish an absolutely incredible experience in terms of both the solidarity with Palestine but also the absolute resilience of the Yemeni people.Mick Wallace: You'd struggle to find a people so determined and so united. It's hard to imagine that any state has opposed Western imperialism in quite the same way as Yemen has.KH: Much like the situation in Gaza ‘starts on October 7’ for lots of people, what's happening in Yemen just ‘starts with the Houthis blocking ships’ and being ‘bad men’ and ‘terrorists.’ But why does Saudi Arabia, with U.S. support, want to destroy Yemen? And why did the U.N. give them permission to do so?Mick: The Yemenis had done nothing to anybody other than the fact that [in 2011 the president] had been pushed aside and the assistant Hadi had been put in power with a program of introducing neoliberalism and facilitating Western investment and plunder. They wanted to raze the place blind and get control of yemeni assets and resources.Yemen was one of the most self-sufficient food countries on the planet. And Hadi manufactured loans from the likes of the IMF and the World Bank with a view to changing how they did agriculture so that they would produce food for export instead of for themselves. And it was a disaster. Before long, people actually found themselves short of food. And they said no to this.There was an insurrection and of course the insurrection wasn't to the pleasing of the West and so in March 2015 [the West] said ‘we have found it impossible to subdue these people so we'll do it the other way.’ That was with military might. It's what's normal for settler colonials, be it America, Europeans or Israel. And that's what happened. Sanctions and blockades still continue to this day. And it's an enormously difficult situation for people living there now.KH: What do you think of the way that the Houthis [Ansar Allah] are portrayed as terrorists, given that, as you pointed out, they're actually the ones following the law when it comes to genocide?Clare: Isn't it amazing? It's deliberately portrayed as marginal and as terrorist. But in actual fact, this government is one of very few internationally which is fulfilling its responsibility under the Geneva Convention, which says that the obligation on all signatories is not just to not commit genocide yourself, but to actively prevent and punish those who do. And the Houthi-led government in Yemen is one of the few doing that. Their actions are directly targeted at interfering with international shipping, which is on its way to enable genocide.Meanwhile, the Israelis are targeting civilians and deliberately killing ordinary people and they're the ones enabled by the West but the Houthis are the ones who are demonized as terrorists. They've been incredibly restrained, they did not attack the ships when the ceasefire was in place and they only resumed the action when the ceasefire was broken with the implementation of the mass starvation again and targeted killing of civilians by the Israelis.The Houthis clearly have the support of their people. We were on a march of over a million people. It happens every Friday. People come out, and bear in mind that these are now the victims of American bombings. every night, to say ‘we stand with Palestine.’We had a meeting with the former prime minister. And he said, ‘look, it's very simple for us. We are not going to stand by. When children are being murdered and starved, we have an obligation to do something and we are going to do it.’ For us, that's heroism. That's not terrorism.For our full interview with Clare Daly and Mick Wallace, where we discuss War in Ukraine and how the West is happy to use the Ukrainian people as cannon fodder, please subscribe to Useful Idiots.

He also cofounded Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity to “protest the use of faulty intelligence” to justify US wars.Ray breaks down SignalGate, US terror in Yemen, the JFK files, the latest in the proxy war in Ukraine, and how the intelligence community uses the threat of Iranian nukes an excuse for Israeli aggression.This week, the Tulsi Gabbard-controlled Office of National Intelligence put out a threat assessment that flies in the face of Israeli officials who are constantly fear-mongering about Iran’s nuclear program and encouraging the U.S. to bomb Iran accordingly.“This is the front burner question right now,” Ray says. “It's worth reading because I think it will be a very great disincentive for the administration to claim that the reason they are with Israel attacking Iran is because Iran has a nuclear weapon.”He reads the report: “The threat assessment dated two days ago says this, ‘We continue to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and that Khamenei has not reauthorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003.’”ShareRay explains what all this means for the Middle East, analyzing all the players from the Houthis in Yemen and their effort against Israel to Marco Rubio’s State Department and its funding of the ongoing genocide.Subscribe for the full interview with Ray McGovern where he breaks down the new information in the JFK files, if Trump actually has an anti-war agenda, and the unsolved mysteries surrounding the DNC email leaks.00:00 Intro01:43 Chuck Schumer is fine with Trump kidnapping students11:18 ICE agents kidnap Tufts student18:40 "Thank You Elon Musk" Country Song22:26 Misogynist Christian Pastor needs more women for singles event26:55 Ray McGovern interview27:47 SignalGate30:21 US terror in Yemen32:37 Why did the US attack the Houthis?37:52 When Israel killed US soldiers42:28 Does Iran have nukes?50:48 What does Iran want?53:38 Why does Israel have nukes?59:59 JFK files UNCLASSIFIEDOur Sponsors:* Check out American Giant and use my code USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.american-giant.com* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://www.avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out DeleteMe and use my code IDIOTS for a great deal: https://joindeleteme.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/useful-idiots-with-katie-halper-and-aaron-mate/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Just look at this Guardian article from March 15:It is reported that at least 150 Palestinians were killed during the ceasefire, and that Israel’s continued blockage of humanitarian aid has led to the deaths of many more in that time. Somehow, this still fits into corporate media’s definition of a ceasefire.This week, however, Israel ramped up it’s mass assault on Gaza, wiping out huge areas of people, including hundreds of children. The attack was too deadly even for corporate media to whitewash. So we have shameless headlines like this:To discuss this, we are joined by Haifa-based Palestinian-Canadian human rights lawyer Diana Buttu and Gazan journalist Abubaker Abed. They explain the devastating destruction by Israel this week, why there was never a ceasefire to begin with, how Trump has been pushing forward this violence, and the genocidal flyers that Israel dropped over Gaza.SharePalestinian voices are nearly completely censored in western media. This episode is free to all so that they can be heard.And stay tuned for this week’s Saturday Shitshow, the weekend edition of Thursday Throwdown.

Get extended interviews, Thursday Throwdowns, and bonus content at http://usefulidiotspodcast.comJoin us LIVE on Youtube every Monday at 10am EST for Monday Mourning, where we watch the Sunday morning news shows so that you don't have to.“There have been widespread massacres along the coast of Alawites,” reports Professor Joshua Landis, Director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma. “This is a religious minority in Syria. They're also the community that backed Bashar al-Assad's regime. Most of the top officers in his security forces and intelligence service were Alawites. And so for that reason, the entire Alawite community has been labeled as guilty and is accused by these Jihadi militias of being guilty.”We don’t show the videos coming out of Syria this week in this episode, but Professor Landis describes the disturbing footage he’s seen.“They just slaughtered every Alawite male they could find along the coast. And not just men, although the vast majority were men. But in many instances, entire families were killed in their apartments. And we have a number of videos of mothers showing you their kids and their entire household who have been shot. A hundred and forty people were just slaughtered in the main town on the roads and the square. And you can see just horrible videos.”The narrative that we've been told in the west is that regime change is necessary to promote democracy around the world. But, Landis explains, though many Syrians justifiably hated the Assad government, the results of US foreign policy make things worse.“Americans believe that when they overturn dictatorships, they're going to get a democratic outcome. We convinced ourselves of this in Iraq, in Libya, in Afghanistan, that we could somehow mold these societies in our own image. And we've discovered that time and time again: we're wrong. And what has happened throughout the Middle East, whether it's the Taliban or Al-Qaeda or ISIS, is you're going to get these extremist militias.”We’re also joined by former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, who has visited Syria over a dozen times and studied its history.“This was so predictable,” he says of this week’s massacres. “The US has been involved for thirty years in an effort to take over Syria.” Kucinich explains the US role in Syria since his time serving in Congress, when he saw firsthand how Bush administration officials focused on helping Israel by employing disruption tactics throughout the Middle East.“The ongoing humanitarian crisis and severe sectarian violence in Syria are direct outcomes of policies dating back to the Clean Break doctrine of 1996, by a D.C. think tank which counseled Benjamin Netanyahu.”Share“The Clean Break doctrine laid the groundwork for aggressive policies toward Syria which emerged through an effort coordinated by the Bush White House as several authors of the Clean Break strategy ascended to federal government policy-making positions.” And as always, this was a bipartisan strategy. “The "Clean Break" approach was further advanced by Hillary Clinton, who, as Secretary of State, together with CIA Director David Petraeus, proposed arming Syrian rebels.”This, Kucinich explains, led to the CIA’s plot to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad, replacing him in 2024 with a new al-Qaeda-led government.Subscribe for the full interview with Dennis Kucinich in which he recounts his trip to Syria with now-Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, what Elon Musk should be doing with DOGE, and how he would end America’s debt crisis.00:00 Intro00:42 Chuck Schumer slanders Mahmoud Khalil08:32 Mike Johnson and Republicans gloat about arresting Mahmoud Khalil19:04 Trump's racist insult to Schumer20:36 Katie's shark-infested travel experience22:40 Joshua Landis interview23:02 What happened in Syria this week?24:36 Was this started by Assad-regime loyalists?31:37 Obama's Syria lie36:20 Will the al-Qaeda leader condemn these massacres?39:05 Is this what Israel wanted?43:11 Will sanctions finally be lifted?45:56 The Balkanization of Syria48:41 Dennis Kucinich interview49:03 The genesis of sectarian death squads in Syria52:20 Congressman goes to Syria55:12 Israel's Clean Break policy58:23 Tulsi Gabbard on Syria1:04:10 Trump's foreign policy1:07:34 What should Elon and DOGE really do?Our Sponsors:* Check out American Giant and use my code USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.american-giant.com* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://www.avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out DeleteMe and use my code IDIOTS for a great deal: https://joindeleteme.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/useful-idiots-with-katie-halper-and-aaron-mate/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Adam Schiff said it: “The United States aids Ukraine and her people so that we can fight Russia over there and we don’t have to fight Russia over here.” Lindsey Graham said it: “As long as we help Ukraine with the weapons they need and the economic support, they will fight to the last person.”Now Rubio: “I’ve been very clear from the beginning that President Trump views this as a protracted stalemated conflict, and frankly it’s a proxy war between…the United States and Russia.”The Duran's Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris join the show this week to explain the history of the proxy war, the magnitude of this unprecedented statement, and why it could represent a major shift away from the last 30 years of US foreign policy.“Since 2014,” Alexander explains, “[the CIA] has basically been controlling Ukraine's intelligence services and has even trained people who have taken part in the assassinations of rebel leaders in the Donbas. Admissions are slowly coming out about what has preceded all of this and what helped provoke Russia to invade.”But Rubio’s statement could be more than an admission; it could be a policy shift. “It's just so unprecedented to get at this level. The secretary of state saying, ‘This is indeed a proxy war. It has to come to an end.’ I think Rubio knew exactly what he was doing. He made this extraordinary statement a few weeks ago that the unipolar moment is over, that the United States is one great power amongst several, that it must pursue its own interests, that the entire history period of American foreign policy has essentially come to an end. Which is a massive reversal of everything that the US has been saying it's been doing for the last thirty years.”Subscribe to hear the full interview with Alex and Alexander on whether a proposed peace deal would actually be accepted by Russia, why there hasn’t been a single US lawmaker to oppose any military spending for Ukraine, and if the Trump administration’s peace messaging will extend to their policies in the Middle East.00:00 Intro00:16 Dems protest Trump's speech by doing nothing07:41 Trump attacks free speech on college campuses13:38 "Jewish women with big racks" go to the ADL16:10 Democrats TikTok malfunction18:25 Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris interview19:27 Will Trump end the Ukraine War?22:26 Rubio said it!25:09 The CIA is more involved than we realize30:55 Is Trump meeting with Zelensky's political opponents?37:22 The EU is all in on the war41:25 A pacified Russia45:30 Will Russia accept a deal?Our Sponsors:* Check out American Giant and use my code USEFUL for a great deal: https://www.american-giant.com* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://www.avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out DeleteMe and use my code IDIOTS for a great deal: https://joindeleteme.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/useful-idiots-with-katie-halper-and-aaron-mate/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
