Guess Who Israel Is Paying To Do Their Dirty Work In Gaza?!? (Jimmy Dore)

The IDF and Shin Bet are reportedly recruiting and arming Gaza-based militias—often drawn from prominent local clans and allegedly affiliated with ISIS —and paying them to carry out operations, control territory, and manage aid routes. Soldiers and commanders say these groups have grown from ad-hoc auxiliaries into semi-organized armed units that sometimes operate without clear coordination or oversight from Israeli forces.

Critics warn this mirrors past disasters (e.g., Sabra and Shatila), creates accountability gaps for atrocities, and enables profiteering and predation on civilians. Guest host James Li and Jimmy discuss the ethical, legal, and operational risks of outsourcing combat and control to local militias in a densely populated, besieged territory.
