British broadcaster James Whale expelling his guest Steve Headley from the studio (social networking sites)

A video clip showed the famous British broadcaster Michael James Whale expelling his guest, the prominent political and trade union activist Steve Headley, from the studio because of his attack on Israel during the program.

Headley, former assistant president of Britain's National Union of Railway, Maritime and Transport Workers (RMT), passionately defended the Palestinian people, accusing Israel of committing "genocide."

Headley, who came to the interview studio wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh, said, "The Israeli government is being exposed to the world because everyone has realized that there is genocide taking place."

The political activist known for his leftist orientation continued, "I believe that the Israeli government is a fascist government. I believe that the Israeli government is a terrorist government." Will interrupted him, saying, "It is a democratic government. No, I will not accept this. This is unacceptable. If you want to talk nonsense, go and talk to the BBC." ", or some other place."

Headley asked him, "What about freedom of expression, James? What I'm telling you is that I condemn terrorism, whether it comes from Hamas or the Israeli government, or is it good to talk about Hamas terrorism, but it's different about the terrorism of the Israeli government? It's a war, isn't it?"

Headley's words angered Will, who replied, "You're talking nonsense." Headley interrupted him, saying, "I'm not talking nonsense. The Palestinian people are an occupied people and they have the right to defend themselves."

Headley continued, saying, "Hamas did not exist when the conflict began in Gaza in the 1940s. The movement was founded in 1987, and Palestine was occupied." Headley then addressed Will's colleague on the program and colleague Ash Gould, saying, "Britain is a terrorist state, isn't it, Ash? This is the reality. Britain is a terrorist state, America is a terrorist state, and Israel is a terrorist state."

As nerves became tense, Will asked the producers to intervene and expel Headley from the studio. After the producer was unable to convince Headley to move from his chair and microphone, Will decided to intervene himself. He was seen on camera approaching Headley and shouting, “Get out, come on.” To which Headley responded, saying, “You want to "You hit me," and Will says, "I'm not trying to hit you. I'm an old man with cancer."

On the other hand, Weil expresses his dissatisfaction with any manifestations of solidarity with Gaza and Palestine. On February 3, he published a picture and commented on it, saying, “A Muslim woman carrying a blood-stained sign saying: ‘You do not have the right to choose the way we resist’ to show her support for the Hamas movement, which rapes and mutilates women.” The heads of civilians and kill children!
