Ali Dawah - COMEDIAN MOCKS 52 DEAD MUSLIMS

00:00:00.200 It wasn't the 52 people who were killed.

00:00:03.340 It wasn't the countless others who had their lives changed forever

00:00:06.600 because their family members were taken from them.

00:00:10.120 It was the hundreds of people that night

00:00:11.580 who couldn't make it home from nightclubs in Christchurch

00:00:13.920 because all the...

00:00:30.000 This journey, this road that I travel on

00:00:41.900 it all seems crazy over the years

00:00:44.820 I picked up thousands of tagalongs

00:00:47.080 inspired by my story

00:00:48.800 from a juvenile

00:00:50.060 where my clothes had holes in the...

00:00:52.400 and my afro was picky

00:00:53.820 to the 90s

00:00:55.360 Moschino and Versace

00:00:57.060 no laces in Arachis

00:00:59.120 new millennium

00:01:00.260 Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

00:01:02.440 brothers and sisters and dear friends

00:01:03.460 hope you guys are well inshallah

00:01:04.240 I'm about to go out

00:01:05.320 before I go out

00:01:05.880 I really found the need to make this video

00:01:08.460 last night I went to Smarter Jannah's house

00:01:10.440 to record the podcast

00:01:12.100 with brother Slim and Adam Saleh

00:01:13.560 which you can find out

00:01:14.420 and it was a very very interesting discussion

00:01:16.620 got a bit heated

00:01:17.680 but it's worth watching

00:01:19.080 it's going to be out tomorrow inshallah

00:01:19.980 on Storytree Profiled

00:01:20.900 the podcast of Slim and Adam

00:01:22.380 and it's going to be out on my channel as well inshallah

00:01:24.380 the reason I mention this

00:01:27.220 because when I was going to his house

00:01:28.160 I came across this video

00:01:29.200 that was sent to me

00:01:29.820 and it was going viral

00:01:30.620 of an Australian comedian

00:01:32.720 and this comedian

00:01:33.540 is basically making jokes

00:01:36.820 he's making jokes

00:01:37.660 about the 52 people

00:01:38.900 that were literally massacred

00:01:40.800 right

00:01:41.200 and his name is

00:01:43.260 on Twitter

00:01:43.800 Isaac Butterfield

00:01:44.720 I think that's what his name is

00:01:45.720 yeah

00:01:45.860 so it's quite popular in Australia

00:01:47.240 and in the morning I woke up

00:01:49.360 you know

00:01:49.520 we're going to watch the video together

00:01:51.300 and then in the morning

00:01:52.620 when I woke up

00:01:53.120 I saw a video of him

00:01:54.120 kind of explaining his side

00:01:56.620 like you know

00:01:57.060 look I'm a comedian

00:01:57.720 we make these kind of jokes

00:01:58.560 I make jokes about all kinds of stuff

00:02:00.500 etc

00:02:00.780 the thing that we need to discuss here

00:02:03.040 is this

00:02:03.320 the statements that he said

00:02:04.400 and if we think about it

00:02:06.460 how it connects with Orientalism

00:02:08.000 yeah

00:02:08.220 and the whole white man's burden

00:02:10.400 you know

00:02:10.860 of trying to save the other

00:02:12.640 you know

00:02:13.200 and we're going to talk about that as well inshallah

00:02:15.080 let's get straight into it

00:02:16.020 let's watch this video

00:02:16.640 and I want you guys reaction as well

00:02:18.200 and then we're going to dissect it

00:02:19.980 and go through it

00:02:20.740 and analyse

00:02:21.900 inshallah

00:02:22.400 let's get straight into the video

00:02:23.180 so this was the very video

00:02:24.780 Australian extremists stormed

00:02:26.120 this building

00:02:26.500 this mosque

00:02:27.120 this room

00:02:28.100 where people were saying their prayers

00:02:29.720 and going about their business

00:02:31.060 and for me

00:02:32.140 the saddest thing about that

00:02:34.340 it wasn't the 52 people who were killed

00:02:37.420 it wasn't the countless others

00:02:39.800 who had their lives changed forever

00:02:41.420 because their family members

00:02:42.660 were taken from them

00:02:43.640 it was the hundreds of people that night

00:02:46.400 who couldn't make it home

00:02:47.300 from nightclubs in Christchurch

00:02:48.740 because all the cabbies were dead

00:02:50.060 that's the video

00:03:05.420 that specific segment

00:03:06.600 now

00:03:07.220 I watched this video in the morning

00:03:09.320 and the video in the morning

00:03:10.280 what he's done is

00:03:11.120 he's talking about the cancelled culture

00:03:12.380 you know the cancelled culture

00:03:13.320 of everyone just gets cancelled etc

00:03:14.600 look I'll be honest with you

00:03:15.700 do I believe he should lose his job

00:03:17.940 because of that statement he made

00:03:19.100 not really

00:03:21.120 do I believe what he said

00:03:22.500 was absolutely disgusting

00:03:24.100 and vile

00:03:24.960 yes

00:03:25.700 does the Muslim population

00:03:28.280 the Muslims as a whole

00:03:29.540 or even if he was talking about the Jews

00:03:30.780 or etc

00:03:31.180 would they deserve an apology

00:03:33.040 yes

00:03:33.960 so the thing here is this

00:03:36.560 and I really want you guys

00:03:37.760 to send this video to him

00:03:38.540 because I really want him to understand that

00:03:39.640 because I was very emotional

00:03:40.420 I was upset

00:03:41.200 you know

00:03:41.960 and where he's coming from

00:03:43.700 he's saying this is my job

00:03:44.700 this is how I earn money

00:03:45.700 and I'm just a comedian

00:03:47.260 I don't mean what I say

00:03:48.660 and he's made that very clear

00:03:49.620 he's saying look

00:03:50.040 I don't mean what I say

00:03:51.200 I've joked about the 9-11

00:03:52.700 I've joked about the Holocaust

00:03:54.600 he claims that

00:03:55.460 I don't know

00:03:55.960 he says that

00:03:56.460 now really

00:03:58.340 if that was said about the Jews

00:03:59.860 if we were to say

00:04:01.060 you know what

00:04:01.420 6 million Jews died

00:04:02.820 yeah

00:04:03.260 and if you made a joke about

00:04:04.600 6 million Jews died

00:04:05.640 and you know what

00:04:06.760 the global economy

00:04:08.380 is going to crash

00:04:09.360 because all those bankers are dead

00:04:10.740 yeah

00:04:11.260 because some people say

00:04:12.220 you know

00:04:12.460 it is actually anti-Semitic

00:04:13.700 to claim

00:04:14.460 that the Jews are the bankers

00:04:15.780 under control of the world

00:04:16.400 if someone was to make a joke like that

00:04:17.820 let's be real

00:04:19.820 the Israeli

00:04:22.080 the Israeli

00:04:23.400 the lobby

00:04:24.380 the Israeli lobby

00:04:25.080 would absolutely demolish

00:04:26.920 and it would be in chaos

00:04:28.660 he would lose his job

00:04:29.520 he would never ever

00:04:30.580 be doing that

00:04:31.400 now

00:04:31.940 in his joke

00:04:32.720 I want to analyse his joke

00:04:33.760 because in his joke

00:04:34.500 it's very interesting

00:04:35.520 because Edward Said

00:04:37.320 talks about this

00:04:38.360 in his book

00:04:39.020 about Orientalism

00:04:40.600 yeah

00:04:40.840 and he talks about

00:04:42.240 his interview

00:04:42.780 and he's talking about

00:04:45.580 that

00:04:46.400 when the Oklahoma bombings

00:04:48.180 happened in America

00:04:48.820 the news reporters

00:04:50.180 and people

00:04:50.660 were coming and saying

00:04:51.300 this looks like

00:04:51.880 a Middle Eastern explosion

00:04:53.020 or you know

00:04:53.680 and I think

00:04:54.020 what the hell

00:04:54.640 does a Middle Eastern explosion

00:04:55.880 look like

00:04:56.360 what did you see

00:04:57.100 like a turban

00:04:57.900 on the floor

00:04:58.860 and his beard

00:04:59.680 what did you see

00:05:00.680 what do you mean by that

00:05:01.960 when the Oklahoma bombings

00:05:03.300 happened

00:05:03.480 they realised

00:05:04.040 that it was not

00:05:04.500 a Middle Eastern attack

00:05:06.440 it was actually

00:05:07.680 a domestic

00:05:10.140 terrorist attack

00:05:11.680 done by two

00:05:12.440 white males

00:05:13.600 right

00:05:14.120 two or three of them

00:05:14.940 that killed

00:05:15.680 how many people

00:05:16.820 yeah

00:05:17.100 so the problem

00:05:18.280 is this

00:05:18.940 that we still

00:05:20.520 have this

00:05:21.080 colonial master syndrome

00:05:23.200 we have this

00:05:24.120 understanding

00:05:24.800 this way of thinking

00:05:26.280 that it's still

00:05:27.700 within us today

00:05:28.420 because what is he saying

00:05:29.440 he's saying

00:05:30.100 I'm not sorry about

00:05:31.920 this this this

00:05:32.840 this and this

00:05:33.460 I'm more

00:05:34.360 upset

00:05:35.320 that club goers

00:05:36.560 yeah

00:05:37.100 so club goers

00:05:37.920 those who are going

00:05:38.460 clubbing

00:05:38.960 those who are

00:05:39.360 entertaining themselves

00:05:40.000 those are the ones

00:05:40.720 you know

00:05:41.120 who are living that

00:05:41.720 you know

00:05:42.240 the 21st century

00:05:45.080 lifestyle

00:05:45.580 and they're slaves

00:05:47.160 you know

00:05:47.420 they're the cab drivers

00:05:48.220 you know

00:05:48.480 what he's doing

00:05:49.080 is he's putting

00:05:49.680 these people

00:05:50.620 who have died

00:05:51.120 children

00:05:51.520 men

00:05:51.860 women

00:05:52.220 innocent people

00:05:53.240 who are dead

00:05:54.040 he puts them

00:05:54.660 into the category

00:05:55.300 of cab drivers

00:05:56.180 they're cab drivers

00:05:56.900 they serve us

00:05:58.200 they serve us

00:05:59.640 I'm more sorry

00:06:00.580 in the context of

00:06:01.460 you know

00:06:02.020 these club goers

00:06:03.660 are not going to have

00:06:04.140 any cab drivers

00:06:04.800 to go back home

00:06:05.640 you can see

00:06:06.900 the deep

00:06:07.740 subliminal message

00:06:09.040 now I'm not saying

00:06:09.520 they did this

00:06:09.940 intention on intention

00:06:10.700 I'm not like

00:06:11.440 a conspiracy theorist

00:06:13.240 okay

00:06:13.560 but the point is

00:06:14.840 you can see

00:06:15.700 that the only thing

00:06:17.120 they saw

00:06:17.520 he didn't say

00:06:18.080 oh we've lost

00:06:18.660 52 solicitors

00:06:19.460 52 accountants

00:06:20.680 52 doctors

00:06:22.320 or 52 nurses

00:06:23.340 cab drivers

00:06:24.880 club goers

00:06:26.120 club goers

00:06:26.800 are suffering

00:06:27.160 because of

00:06:28.080 cab drivers

00:06:29.820 are dead

00:06:30.120 now

00:06:30.780 I just want to

00:06:33.360 defense of

00:07:29.100 my jokes are quite dead

00:07:29.740 to be honest

00:07:30.080 if I was to make a joke

00:07:31.760 about two white

00:07:34.040 I don't know

00:07:35.520 white babies

00:07:36.680 and a woman

00:07:38.420 or something

00:07:38.720 like your wife

00:07:40.160 and your two kids

00:07:41.880 any kind of joke

00:07:42.640 please tell me

00:07:43.720 Isaac

00:07:44.040 how would you feel

00:07:45.500 knowing that

00:07:46.780 you witnessed

00:07:47.560 and you saw

00:07:48.680 the death

00:07:49.320 of your loved ones

00:07:50.360 your children

00:07:51.020 your kids

00:07:51.620 your innocent souls

00:07:52.720 where Allah says

00:07:53.920 in the Quran

00:07:54.260 killing one soul

00:07:55.520 is as if you killed

00:07:56.180 the whole of humanity

00:07:56.980 that's how dear

00:07:58.460 and precious

00:07:58.920 a life is

00:07:59.880 how would you feel

00:08:02.060 that I make a joke

00:08:03.260 when you're suffering

00:08:04.440 and grieving

00:08:05.280 in pain

00:08:06.400 and you are probably

00:08:08.120 going through

00:08:08.440 psychological trauma

00:08:09.820 to bury your loved ones

00:08:12.100 Isaac

00:08:13.220 I just want you to tell me

00:08:14.300 would you say

00:08:15.500 would you defend

00:08:16.260 my freedom of speech

00:08:17.260 of the joke

00:08:18.400 that I make

00:08:18.980 about your

00:08:19.600 the death
