MONOLOGUE It s over for Israel in the USA

Donald Trump never goes to Camp David. He hates its rustic, Spartan nature. He prefers the vulgar, glittery sleaze of Mar-a-Lago in Florida. That much has been well established. But this weekend, he has totally unexpectedly taken the helicopter to Camp David to be amongst the woods and the nature trail. I smell a rat myself, and I'm wondering if the provocations issued on social media today, 11 of them, in which he threatens Interrelia to hit Iran hard, harder than last time. He threatens the very life of the negotiators who are sitting with J.D. Vance, his vice president, in official negotiations. He tells them that they will be lucky to get back to their country alive. He is threatening mudder with the people he's negotiating with, which isn't a surprise, really, as this whole leg of the whole thing started with a sneak attack, far sneakier than Hirohito. Hirohito wasn't negotiating with the United States when he hit the United States with Pearl Harbor. But Trump was negotiating with the very people that he then murdered in their houses, in their beds. I think it was a provocation today. I think it was meant to provoke a walkout altogether by the Iranian delegation. And they thought so too. That's why they didn't. They left the room. They shunned a photo opportunity. Mind you, so did the prime minister of Qatar. Even he didn't want his picture taken with J.D. Vance. My, how his stock has fallen just in advance of the midterms. But the Iranians didn't leave the hotel. They didn't leave the negotiations. And they're still there. Although if Donald Trump makes good on his threat, they may not make it alive back to their country. And Donald Trump may be in Camp David for a nefarious reason. It's hard to work out any good reason why he would be in Camp David. He never. There's no golf course. He doesn't live amongst gold showers and toilet basins. He doesn't live surrounded by courtiers and floozies, courtesans and the rest of it. It's hard to believe he's gone to Camp David to birdwatch, if you get my drift. So we may very well be back into war after all of this. Mind you, he's burned bridges with Benjamin Netanyahu. On that, I am absolutely certain. And if I had a vote in this poll, has Trump really fallen out with Netanyahu? He sure has. As the New York Times quoted him this very week, calling Netanyahu a conman, which is the worst insult in the lexicon of Donald J. Trump, being he himself is the ultimate conman. And one conman can't stand another conman operating on his patch. He has, and so has J.D. Vance, so even has Marco Rubio. So has sundry members of the Trump administration, beginning to be echoed in the mass media, expressed their divorce from Israel, or at least a trial separation. The vice president, J.D. Vance, said that the relationship with Israel was akin to the relationship with France and with the United Kingdom. Well, as Donald Trump has just danced on the grave of the United Kingdom's prime minister, Keir Starmer, about whom more in a minute, and as he's threatened a thousand percent tariffs on French wine, if Israel is in the same league as France and the United Kingdom, well, that means they've fallen from favor. And the latest polling in the United States, showing Benjamin Netanyahu with an approval rating in the United States of just 35%, down from 59% prior to October 7th, it indicates that it's all gone south for Israel, for Zionism, and for Netanyahu in the United States. And it will never be glad, confident morning again. Even if Trump were to do another 180, even if Trump were to perform a U-turn, even if Trump were to bomb Iran this very weekend, or this very week, it will not restore Israel to any kind of parity with where it stood before. It's over for Israel in the United States of America. And the younger the person polled, whether they're Democrats, Republicans, or Independents, the more strongly they disapprove of Israel and of the United States over attachment, shall we say, to that settler state far away on the Mediterranean. So I don't know what Trump's going to do next, but I don't know if Netanyahu has much more room for maneuver. It's reported that the U.S. has opened back channels with the opposition leaders in the state of Israel, and it may very well be that even in advance of elections they are trying to push Netanyahu out so they can Gomulka him. Gomulka was a discredited communist leader in Poland. They got rid of him and then blamed every problem in Poland on the shoulders of Gomulka. That's probably what they'll try to do with Netanyahu. But it's all going south for Donald Trump on every front. He spent 14 million dollars on the reflecting pool, which he wanted to turn from Barack Obama green to deep American blue. I don't have time to go into all the disasters that have occurred, but let's just say that when it was painted a deep American blue, the temperature in the pond went up so much that the algae multiplied and is now in its millions in the pool and it's now dirtier than ever. And the deep blue paint is coming off in sheets and people are stealing it and keeping it as keepsakes. Well, they paid for it, 14 million dollars, which went to a guy without a bid, a no-bid contract that went to a guy who's Donald Trump's neighbor at Mar-a-Lago. And if we've got a picture of him, he's worth seeing. He's like a character out of the Goodfellas or out of the Godfather. Anyway, I'm digressing from the ballroom to the reflecting pool to his relations with all of his former Zionist friends, Shapiro, Levin, Barry Weiss. They are all lambasting Donald Trump and most ominous of all, Mariam Adelson will never give him another shekel. Now, he won't need it for any further elections. He'll be lucky to complete this presidential term, never mind run for another one, but it must have hurt when her newspaper in Israel, she owns almost all of them, when her newspaper in Israel denounced Trump as a traitor, a backstabber. Trump sold his whole presidency to these wretches and they've turned on him just because he tried to end a war he should never have started and which he started at their behest and on their behalf. The midterms are coming at us like an express train. November is just around the corner. It is Midsummer's Day already and November, the election campaign for November, has already begun. If Trump loses, not just one, but both of the houses of Congress, the possibility, probability of impeachment, maybe weekly impeachment, steeply rises. And as the next presidential election looms, there will come a point at which Republican senators will not any longer wish to veto the removal from office of Donald J. Trump. So, in these high-stakes situations, you can see why he's panicking to end the war and yet why he's provoking a continuation of the war. He's zigzagging. This is an empire of chaos. Absolute chaos reigns in Washington. Mind you, it isn't much better in London. And I turn to my favourite subject. When we started the televised edition of the Mother of All Talk shows, I actually posed with a block of wood on the day that Keir Starmer was anointed as the new leader of the Labour Party. I told you all that he was. There it is there. There's the block of wood that I brought with me onto this very studio platform. But I underestimated how bad he would be. He turned out not just to be a block of wood. He turned out to be so dense, so sclerotic, so wooden, so tongue-tied, so doubtful, so dubious, so devious, so deviant that he will go down in history as a notorious freak show who turned up out of the blue as Britain's prime minister for a mercifully short time. I'll be dancing on his grave when I hear from his own lips that he's resigning from the prime ministership tomorrow. There seems little doubt that that's what he's going to do. The only doubt there might be is how quickly he'll be going. Donald Trump himself announced that Starmer was resigning. And every newspaper in Britain, every broadcaster in Britain, including his own broadcaster, the state mouthpiece, BBC, have announced that Starmer will be going tomorrow. Now he may seek to delay it for a week or a month. He may say that the campaign to be the next prime minister, next leader of the Labour Party, and therefore automatically the next prime minister requires a two-month campaign or who knows, even a three-month campaign. And he may generously agree to stay on. I don't know any of this. I'm very far away. I don't have the inside track on it. But I'm certain that virtually no one in Britain, virtually no one, will regret his passing. And the only regret there will be will that such a man, such a dullard, such a doltard, could have held that august position, even if only for two years. He makes Liz Truss look competent. He makes Rishi Sunak look spectacular. He makes Boris Johnson look honest. And I tell you, that's a very difficult thing to do. So people have been asking me all day, who's going to be the next prime minister? Well, the next prime minister, barring an act of God, is that man behind Starmer on that picture on my wall. His name is Andy Burnham. I've known him for 25 years. He has run to be the Labour leader, not once but twice before, and crashed ignominiously to humiliating failure. In 2015, when he last stood, his goose was cooked when, gratuitously, egregiously, he announced on a platform, on camera, that if he was elected leader of the Labour Party, the first country he'd be visiting was Israel. Bad timing, Andy. Just before the people elected Jeremy Corbyn in a landslide. Bad timing, Andy. Now that Israel is the most hated country on the earth. Bad timing, Andy. When even Donald Trump is viciously attacking Israel and its leadership, you are unearthed in rare footage. But it isn't rare. Now the man that put it out could not have imagined that millions of people would view it. Andy would have been hoping it was lost. But nothing on the internet is lost. Bad timing to have joined the Labour Friends of Israel in 2015. Just prior to running to become the Labour leader. And that's a clue to him. This is not a man that, in all the time he's been in parliament, has nailed his colours to the Israeli mask. No, he doesn't have any colours and he's never nailed them to any mask. He's only interested in power, in influence for himself. And he knew that just like being a Freemason in some professions, being a member of the Labour Friends of Israel was mandatory. If you were going to get on in the Labour Party, still in thrall to the unlamented Tony Blair. I remember a time when it was not so. I was in the Labour Party for 33 years, remember? And in that 33 years, for most of it, it was quite intellectually legitimate to take a pro-Palestinian, a pro-Arab line. But under Tony Blair, it became mandatory, mandatory for anyone to get on in Labour politics. And that's why Burnham joined in 2015. That's why he pretends to be a Northerner. Of course, he is from the north of the country, but he ain't no Northerner. That's why he pretends to put gravy on his chips or on his Cocoa Pops for his breakfast. That's why he pretends to drop his H's and his T's. That's why he pretends to be a Coronation Street viewer. That's why he pretends to like football. I played in the House of Commons football team with him many, many times. And against him, he ain't no footballer, gov. Andy Burnham is a fraud. Or in northern parlance, real northern parlance, Andy Burnham is a chancer. He will take any opportunity to do anything that is required to get on. And he's only back in parliament because one of the most ultra supporters of Israel, a man called Josh Simons, a man that if Israel allowed you to, would be royalty in Israel. He stepped down to allow Starmer to take his seat. He didn't do it for nothing, brov. He didn't do it without price. Gov, he didn't do it without eliciting in advance that Burnham would be loyal to the state of Israel until the bitter end, which is approaching. But Andy won't worry about that. If it got him into parliament and it gets him into 10 Downing Street, that's job done so far as he is concerned. Neither will he adjust the British government's positioning, ruinous, disastrous positioning on the NATO attack against the Russian Federation. In fact, Burnham campaigned to take the World Cup away from Russia in 2018. That's how foul he is. World Cup, the best or the second best one or the other World Cup in history that anyone who attended it, player, official, journalist, fan, says was the greatest World Cup in 2018. Starmer tried to take it away from Russia, not Starmer, of course, Burnham. It's a Freudian slip because they really are two cheeks of the same arse. Now, Burnham, of course, may change one or both of those positions. As I said to you, he has principles, but if you don't like them, he has others. His only real principle is what suits Andy Burnham. And therefore, if you think about it, I have a right to be happy that there's about to be a change because what would be the point in overthrowing your Prime Minister and then continuing exactly the same policies that the Prime Minister had been following? Where would be the electoral political profit in that? And Andy, with his long history of privatising the National Health Service, definitely knows the meaning of profit. So I take the view that Andy Burnham succeeding Keir Starmer is a step forward. It won't obviously restrict my unremitting complaint and critique and attack, if necessary, upon him, including in the forthcoming elections for the Mayor of Greater Manchester, which he's now being forced to divest. I'm running as the Workers' Party candidate in Greater Manchester and demanding that the British government assure me that I will not be detained under the Terrorism Act at gunpoint at Manchester Airport when I arrive to take part, as is my right, in a democratic election for Mayor. And if I don't get that assurance, I will campaign for the mayoralty of Greater Manchester from the streets of Shanghai, Beijing and Hong Kong. See how that makes you look, you big planks of wood. It's been marvellous. Stay tuned for the rest of the show. It is the mother of all talk shows.
