  Here's your host, Alex Garrett. Silent then the evil Man motion Habwa Sama,
• 0:11
  the form the deluge. That's the model. As we don't want to
• 0:14
  speak up, we'll be swift. Only a little bit of the Paul McKenna
• 0:19
  band to start out my podcast. Maybe we'll keep that as an open for
• 0:24
  a while. As turmoil keeps rolling along as this podcast Alex Garet Podcast Network
• 0:31
  does as well, I'll drop the link of that song Silent Majority in the
• 0:35
  description below. I have some updates for you. Firstly, where are we
• 0:39
  staying with Starbucks? All right? Remember on this podcast I kind of said
• 0:43
  don't go there. I advocated that unless Starbucks fires the workers that basically had
• 0:50
  solidarity with Palestine, but what they really meant was going to Israel and attack
• 0:55
  Israeli's Because why would you post a bulldozer into, you know, barreling into
• 1:00
  the Israeli part of the Gaza strip. Why would you post that if you
• 1:04
  were just wanting to be insolidarity with Palestinians. That's my question. But I've
• 1:11
  done some research and Starbucks right now is at a war with Workers United.
• 1:19
  Starbucks claims Workers United damaged its brand by allegedly improperly using its name and logos
• 1:27
  imposts allegedly supporting Palestine. Well now allegedly it did support the Palestine and its
• 1:34
  ongoing conflict with Israel. Workers United argues Starbucks is defaming it and falsely attacking
• 1:42
  a reputation in an effort to bolster it's illegal anti union campaign, which I
• 1:48
  call bullon. Don't victimize yourself, Union Workers. I think the efforts of
• 1:57
  Starbucks going this far to disney themselves from their bearists is admirable. Since we
• 2:06
  last talked, I've had a little bit of Starbucks. I'm so wary because
• 2:10
  I'm not sure where this is going to fall at the end of the day.
• 2:14
  But do you believe when Starbucks Executive vice president Sarah Kelley says, Starbucks
• 2:19
  unequivocally condemns acts of terrorism, hate and violence. And we strongly disagree with
• 2:24
  the views expressed by Workers United, including its local affiliates, union organizers,
• 2:30
  and those who identify as members of Starbucks Workers United. None of these groups
• 2:36
  speak for Starbucks Coffee Company and do not represent our company's views, positions,
• 2:42
  or beliefs. Their words and actions belong to them and them alone, And
• 2:51
  I think that's a pretty strong statement from Starbucks. I'd like to see more.
• 2:55
  I don't know who's been fired. Apparently there has been some firing is
• 3:00
  going on. I have to get to the bottom of that. Well,
• 3:06
  let me say this. I have had a couple of Starbucks since I saw
• 3:19
  the lawsuits, since I saw them distancing themselves from the baristas. Because I
• 3:23
  went into my Starbucks today and I said, you know, I know it's
• 3:28
  a hot guy I look in the eye, but I only believe a select
• 3:32
  hand few handful are like this, and those are the handful that should be
• 3:38
  targeted. Those are the handful. But I look at my daily Starbucks and
• 3:43
  I look at them and I think they're good people. They seem to be
• 3:47
  good people. And why judge an entire network of sixteen thousand union workers when
• 3:59
  the sample size I see at the community Starbucks around Queens the city and Long
• 4:06
  Island where we go are not horrible people. They don't give me the impression
• 4:13
  they would want Israelis to be kidnapped and you know, killed and made hostages.
• 4:23
  That's only a fringe part of Starbucks. But again, if Starbucks took
• 4:28
  no action here, I would not walk into that place until I knew they
• 4:31
  had it under control. But these lawsuits seem to be a positive step toward
• 4:36
  rooting out the evil sector that says they basically stand with Amas. That's what
• 4:46
  they're saying. But you could stop listening to me if you don't like the
• 4:51
  fact that I've gone back to Starbucks based on my research. I just have
• 4:57
  until I otherwise feel it's not benefiting the support the cause and support of Israel.
• 5:08
  Fully, I think these lawsuits are a huge start, and I hope
• 5:15
  they go somewhere. But that's my latest update on the Starbucks where I stay
• 5:24
  with Starbucks. I didn't want to walk in there and not tell you,
• 5:26
  hey, here's what's going on. And then if you think that's controversial going
• 5:30
  back to Starbucks, how about this. How about a woman by the name
• 5:38
  of Jehaved Liftshitz who was actually a hostage, beaten by Hamas, taken out
• 5:48
  of her home, thrown onto a motorbike, and kidnapped to Gaza. And
• 5:58
  after all the hell's she's been through, she says she still shook the hand
• 6:04
  of a Hamas gunman while leaving custody. And that's public controversy. Now when
• 6:17
  you see that, it should be a lesson to humanity that here's an elderly
• 6:34
  woman who could forgive, who could maybe herself negotiate peace by just that handshake
• 6:51
  alone. That means she's acceping an olive branch to a group that terrorized her,
• 7:01
  kidnapped her, and held their hostage. But if that's controversy, then
• 7:14
  where do we find the peace in the world. If her shaking the hand
• 7:18
  of a Hamas Gumman is controversial, after the hell she's been through, where
• 7:24
  are we gonna find peace? I couldn't believe that. She said that she
• 7:30
  and other hostages were given food, medical attention, shampoo and conditioner, and
• 7:34
  mattresses to sleep on. And and the Hamas terrorists HuffPost calls them militants.
• 7:42
  I call them terrorists promised the hostages that they wouldn't be harmed, She told
• 7:47
  Canadian Broadcasting Group. They stormed into our homes. They beat people, they
• 7:50
  kidnapped others, the old, only young, without distinction. The young men
• 7:55
  hit me on the way. They didn't break my ribs, but it was
• 7:58
  painful, and I had difficulty breathe. And yet, and yet she was
• 8:05
  somehow able to shake the hand of the Hamas gum And then blamed her own
• 8:13
  leadership, her own country's leadership, for allowing the Hamas attack to occur.
• 8:20
  She called those victimized by Hamas the scapegoats for the leadership. She even wants
• 8:26
  coexistence with Palestinians, the people holding on the hope that he's doing well.
• 8:33
  Now that Huff posts the story because she's a little more sympathetic to the Palestinian
• 8:39
  cause. Is that why they did this? I hope not, Because honestly,
• 8:46
  if we want peace, why can't we start with an eighty five year
• 8:50
  old shaking hands with those who abducted her, those who are no good?
• 9:01
  Yet, somehow this woman has found the good. I commend her for having
• 9:05
  the strength to shake their hand, and I think it's something we can learn
• 9:11
  from. But that doesn't mean Israel should stop defending themselves, stop brooding out
• 9:18
  the bad guys and knocking them dead, the bad guys meaning Hammas. Because
• 9:22
  though this handshake I think could go a long way, there are those that
• 9:26
  don't even want to shake the hand of Israeli right now. They are out
• 9:31
  for blood, most of these Hummas terrorists. That's how I firmly believe,
• 9:37
  and I think you would too. But maybe this handshake could turn it around.
• 9:45
  Can soften those who are out for Israeli blood? Dare I say once
• 9:52
  in for all on the Alex Garrett Podcast Network. Talk to you soon.
