Transcript

00:00:00.000 Brothers and sisters, just imagine for a second that you give £10 in donation and that £10 is
00:00:06.680 used to buy food or bricks or whatever to help the people in Gaza. But then just imagine this
00:00:11.940 amazing deed that you want to do, but we turn it into a money making machine. How? The Waqf is
00:00:17.520 exactly that. They take your money and the money that we are going to put in this Waqf, this
00:00:22.380 building, and every single time the money generated from that Waqf, that building is going to go to
00:00:29.060 our Palestinian brothers and sisters for the next 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 100, 150 years. And this will be a form of true Sadaqa Jariya. Click the link below and donate.
00:00:40.040 Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh brothers and sisters and dear friends, I hope you guys are well inshaAllah. We are going to be reacting to the debate between, what's his name?
00:00:48.660 Mehdi Hassan and Elon Levy, I think. Elon, the scumbag. InshaAllah, have you guys watched the debate?
00:00:55.260 Yes. Yeah? Yes. Okay, interesting. I've got some bits that I've screen recorded. Let's try to react to it, because I think it was, I think, who do you think won?
00:01:03.740 Mehdi Hassan. All day, every day, innit? Yeah, just like with you and Craig David. Okay, here's the first part, yeah?
00:01:10.680 Convince the people of Gaza, terrorism is a dead end. There is no light at the end of that tunnel.
00:01:15.920 Mehdi, you also get to respond. You can respond.
00:01:18.520 You want me to answer? I mean, I think Peter made the point very eloquently, it's a nonsensical war.
00:01:24.960 The real war aims, of course, are what the Israeli ministers say. When Smotrich says the aim of the war is to annihilate Gaza, that is the aim.
00:01:31.060 I take him in its face value.
00:01:32.900 He literally says that. And when they say this stuff, when they talk about resettling Gaza, when they talk about staying in Gaza, that is what they mean.
00:01:39.120 Can I finish an answer, Elan?
00:01:41.940 He's trying to occupy the debate.
00:01:43.960 It's not government policy, and goes against government.
00:01:46.980 I would just say this. If you want to convince the people of Gaza that terrorism is a dead end, then stop inflicting terrorism on them.
00:01:57.760 He had some sick one bars. What did you think of that specific? Because there's two more.
00:02:03.520 There's a few that I saw.
00:02:05.520 Do you want to watch it altogether?
00:02:06.400 Yeah, why not?
00:02:07.220 Okay, let's go for the next one.
00:02:08.080 Bear hostage, Pimpy.
00:02:09.580 We were a little stuck here.
00:02:10.240 If you want to show them you care, you're welcome.
00:02:13.960 Push it on. Show them you care.
00:02:16.100 I am in daily contact with this family.
00:02:18.760 I tell them I will do whatever it takes to help you get your kids home.
00:02:22.920 Okay, okay.
00:02:24.300 Elan, allow him to respond. You've got your bit of stagecraft.
00:02:27.520 Please take it.
00:02:28.500 Let's be clear.
00:02:29.520 You saw the very, very performative outrage there from Elan there.
00:02:34.360 To be clear, don't you lecture me about hostages.
00:02:37.760 When your government has killed more hostages than it has rescued.
00:02:41.180 That's on you.
00:02:42.480 That's on you.
00:02:43.220 I will happily support this Pim because I support the release of all the hostages and I support,
00:02:49.100 I support the release of thousands of Palestinian detainees being raped and tortured and children.
00:02:54.140 Do you support that?
00:02:55.140 Do you support the release of Palestinians?
00:02:56.880 I do not support the release of terrorists.
00:02:58.720 Do you support the release of Palestinian children?
00:03:00.760 Let's get some space here.
00:03:02.140 Do you cut on to the question?
00:03:02.860 Do I support the release?
00:03:04.320 He should have told him, you know, when he's grabbing onto him, he's like, don't touch me.
00:03:07.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:03:08.320 Why is he grabbing onto him?
00:03:09.880 Right when he drops the bombshell right at the end, that are you going to support the release of the thousands of detainees?
00:03:16.940 Yeah.
00:03:17.320 He goes, yeah, yeah.
00:03:17.940 He'd even condemn the...
00:03:18.820 Don't get too close.
00:03:19.920 Yeah, he'd even condemn the rape and the thing that's been happening.
00:03:24.540 Yeah, and that Sidi Tammam camp.
00:03:27.220 Yeah, and the last video.
00:03:28.900 ...of Israel in Gaza justified.
00:03:31.260 Look, the argument is pretty simple tonight and pretty hypocritical from Elon.
00:03:34.780 What we've heard tonight is that October...
00:03:36.680 Nothing justifies October the 7th, but October the 7th justifies everything.
00:03:41.060 Well, I'm here tonight to tell you, no, October the 7th does not justify everything.
00:03:44.880 It does not justify the suffering in Gaza.
00:03:46.720 It does not justify the killing of kids in Gaza.
00:03:50.000 It does not justify the starvation in Gaza.
00:03:52.060 It does not justify the rape and torture of Palestinian detainees, which Elon refused to condemn tonight.
00:03:57.040 It does not justify any of that.
00:03:58.780 It doesn't justify the tearing up of the Geneva Conventions, the defiance of international law and the ICC and our own Leahy law.
00:04:04.340 Yes, October the 7th was a war crime.
00:04:06.500 But the response to a war crime is not to commit your own series of war crimes on an epic scale.
00:04:10.760 33 times as many people killed since October the 7th as were killed on October the 7th.
00:04:15.840 And I'll say this to you.
00:04:17.180 Look, very, very clearly, if you support this motion tonight, you are opening the gates of hell.
00:04:23.200 Not just in Gaza, but globally.
00:04:25.180 Because every dictator and tyrant around the world will say, Israel's actions were justified?
00:04:30.200 And so am I.
00:04:31.120 Putin, Assad, Kim, they'll all say, Israel killed kids.
00:04:33.980 Israel killed aid workers.
00:04:35.420 Israel killed journalists.
00:04:36.740 So can we.
00:04:37.680 And I will be, I will be very clear.
00:04:40.660 I will be very clear with you tonight.
00:04:41.860 If you are here tonight, ladies and gents, if you're here tonight to defend what Israel's done, knowing full well what Israel has done.
00:04:48.680 If you're defending the human suffering in Gaza, the amputation of little kids.
00:04:52.580 If you're doing that in full knowledge, then you're not just here to defend the indefensible or justify the unjustifiable.
00:04:57.700 I'm sorry, you're a sociopath.
00:05:00.080 And I will say to you.
00:05:03.300 I mean, what do you make out of that?
00:05:04.580 I mean, one of the main points that I loved was they say nothing justifies October the 7th.
00:05:11.000 But everything.
00:05:11.960 That was a bar.
00:05:11.980 I was like, wow, that's actually the hypocrisy, bro.
00:05:15.080 Nothing justifies what they did on October the 7th of October.
00:05:17.000 Okay.
00:05:17.620 But they justify everything they do because of October the 7th.
00:05:20.640 That's right.
00:05:21.000 I mean, just recently what happened in Lebanon with the attacks, the IDF attacks on Lebanon.
00:05:27.060 We don't call that the 22nd of, I don't know, whatever, September.
00:05:30.780 Yes.
00:05:31.160 We don't have a name for that.
00:05:32.040 Even though like maybe three, four hundred civilians died in one day.
00:05:35.920 Which is comparable with what they call October the 7th.
00:05:38.560 Yes.
00:05:39.160 So why don't we have dates that we can also commemorate in that way?
00:05:42.900 Yeah.
00:05:43.320 You know, you have to say that actually, to be honest with you, the pro-Zionist, if you like, propaganda,
00:05:49.200 in this very specific regard has been successful, that they've been able to coin certain terms.
00:05:55.100 They've said October the 7th, the human shield, these kind of buzzwords and things.
00:05:59.480 We have to deconstruct that and we have to reconstruct our own versions of that.
00:06:04.360 Yeah.
00:06:04.600 Because if October the 7th becomes a buzzword such that a thousand people's death with,
00:06:10.820 I don't know how many of it, one third of it is, you know, military targets anyway.
00:06:15.700 Yeah.
00:06:16.260 And the rest is comparable.
00:06:17.280 Now we can use this, as he's mentioned, to justify the killing of 30 times more than that.
00:06:25.120 Then this is, it's ridiculous.
00:06:27.940 It's a double standard of tremendous proportions.
00:06:30.960 So, I mean, now the reason why Lebanon is very relevant is because Lebanon is a sovereign state which has not declared war.
00:06:37.940 I mean, take the example of the pager thing, for example.
00:06:39.520 Yeah, exactly.
00:06:40.120 The pager thing.
00:06:41.300 Let me ask you a question and let's think about this together, right?
00:06:43.980 But the pager thing, if one of these, let's say Hezbollah targets had been in the United Kingdom, in London, rather than Beirut, he'd been in London and he'd been on a train in London.
00:06:55.180 And then they detonated the bomb.
00:06:57.540 That's just for the sake of argument.
00:06:58.540 Well done in history.
00:06:59.120 And then one of the children on the bus, one white boy, white English boy was killed.
00:07:04.360 Yeah.
00:07:04.940 Would that be called a terrorist attack by consensus?
00:07:07.080 Yes, it would be.
00:07:07.800 Well, well not.
00:07:08.120 So, if a Lebanese boy in a sovereign state, which is Lebanon, which is not at war with the so-called state of Israel, is killed, it's not seen as an act of terrorism.
00:07:17.100 But if a white boy under the same circumstances was, it would be called an act of terrorism.
00:07:21.740 It really shows you what's going on.
00:07:23.360 What's going on is that there's a double standard of tremendous proportions and they've got a hierarchy of who they consider to be blood worth saving.
00:07:32.640 Yeah, exactly.
00:07:33.040 And blood, that's not worth saving.
00:07:34.380 You saw that in the Ukraine war where they would come and say, this is something that you'll see in the Middle East.
00:07:39.100 Or these things, it's like they were saying this belongs there.
00:07:41.640 The children can be killed there, not here.
00:07:43.780 You saw this with journalists.
00:07:46.300 I think Norman Finkelstein said this as well.
00:07:49.180 He said that in six months, the children that have been murdered, butchered in six months in Gaza are more than all the other war zones over three years multiplied by four.
00:08:03.040 And this exemplifies the point of Mehdi Hassan, that he's saying that it seems that you're saying that everything is justified through October 7th.
00:08:14.060 Hear another child through these exploding pages.
00:08:17.720 This is warfare by a complete rogue state that's not being held to account.
00:08:26.320 In fact, Israel is a threat to the Middle East.
00:08:29.580 Let me tell you guys something.
00:08:31.440 It was...
00:08:33.440 And also, why did you find that?
00:08:35.180 Was it the head of... not head of CIA, but someone connected to CIA.
00:08:37.860 He said this could be seen as...
00:08:40.360 This is one of the greatest acts of terrorism.
00:08:42.640 The page of things exploding.
00:08:44.120 You basically planted explosives in pages, bro.
00:08:48.640 Anyone... no one's free.
00:08:49.680 I think in 2022, there was a vote to turn the Middle East into a nuclear-free zone.
00:08:57.200 But there was only one country that voted against that.
00:09:00.940 Two guesses.
00:09:03.060 It's a hard one.
00:09:05.780 It was Israel.
00:09:07.040 Oh no, really?
00:09:08.220 I was thinking Lebanon.
00:09:09.360 So the country that's saying, oh, we're surrounded, and oh, this is happening, and they're the ones attacking in Syria.
00:09:18.820 There are reports to suggest that they are even, like ISIS, people that are injured members of ISIS.
00:09:25.140 They're taking them in, and they're healing them, and they're helping them.
00:09:27.980 They do.
00:09:28.120 They're, you know, they've got issues going on in Syria.
00:09:31.440 They've got issues going on in Lebanon.
00:09:32.820 They've got issues going on in Gaza.
00:09:34.880 It seems like these guys are the thorn in the backside of the Middle East.
00:09:41.200 Everywhere.
00:09:41.660 And this thorn, yeah.
00:09:43.080 And this thorn needs to be removed.
00:09:45.520 Yeah, exactly.
00:09:46.140 I mean, yeah, like to me, he wiped the floor with them.
00:09:49.280 And nothing can justify it.
00:09:50.620 And, you know, you can see this guy doesn't...
00:09:52.420 He's talking about hostages.
00:09:53.320 And when I say the thorn needs to be removed, I mean, the issue needs to be corrected just before they say that.
00:09:58.460 No, no.
00:09:59.660 Zionists, whoever they are, they need to be arrested, get rid of them legally, you know, in that instance.
00:10:05.240 And you can see...
00:10:05.980 They are the thorns.
00:10:06.780 They are the thorns.
00:10:07.980 And the whole world has woken up to this, you know.
00:10:10.120 This word of anti-Semitism, it's lost its value.
00:10:13.580 You know, you guys are the biggest anti-Semites yourself.
00:10:16.300 You've made it more dangerous for innocent Jews who do not condone what you're doing to walk out freely,
00:10:21.760 which is, you know, we talk about this.
00:10:23.620 Like, there was one guy who was in Stamford Hill walking.
00:10:26.920 He got attacked, you know.
00:10:27.740 I went out there myself to Stamford Hill and went to the Jewish community and spoke about this,
00:10:31.220 how we was disgusted with what happened.
00:10:34.400 Because why should an innocent man, an old man, Jewish man walking, get attacked?
00:10:38.820 But this is what you guys, of course, you're trying to make the state of Israel a place that's safe for the Jews.
00:10:43.620 But you're a Muslim guy talking about, oh, the weaponization of anti-Semitism.
00:10:50.340 There was a woman called Shulamit Aloni who won the 2000 Israel Prize.
00:10:54.980 And she said, and I quote,
00:10:57.040 anti-Semitic, it's a trick.
00:11:00.280 We always use it to stifle legitimate criticism of Zionist Israel.
00:11:04.740 Yeah, in fact, she was a former Israeli cabinet member as well.
00:11:07.960 Well, exactly.
00:11:08.760 I mean, that's quite honest with this.
00:11:10.020 But you can see that span of people like Candace Owens and many of them have come out now because the world has woken up to this reality.
00:11:16.700 And I believe, genuinely, I believe Israel's days are numbered as a state.
00:11:21.900 We want it to go back to where the Muslims and the Christians and the Jews lived in those lands for centuries together,
00:11:27.480 away from these Zionists who are against Judaism.
00:11:30.100 They don't even believe in God for that matter.
00:11:31.800 They talk about the holy lands.
00:11:32.760 You don't even believe in it.
00:11:34.220 Most of you guys are atheists.
00:11:35.720 You just need to look into Andalus, where Muslims ruled over Spain for 800 years.
00:11:41.240 And Convergencia?
00:11:42.940 Yes, Convergencia.
00:11:43.820 What's that?
00:11:44.340 Yeah, that's where the Muslims, the Christians and the Jews, they lived together until Isabel and Ferdinand came.
00:11:48.980 And you know how they tortured the Jews?
00:11:50.140 Oh, they ran to the Ottomans.
00:11:53.020 It was the Ottomans they ran to Hijab.
00:11:54.660 Yeah, they ran to the Ottomans for safe havens.
00:11:56.640 So the issue is very clear.
00:11:58.300 This scumbag, what's his name?
00:11:59.160 Elon.
00:12:00.120 Elon, what's his name?
00:12:00.800 Elon, what's his name?
00:12:01.620 Elon Levy.
00:12:02.460 Elon, the coward.
00:12:03.420 Yeah, this is what he is.
00:12:04.080 He's an absolute moron.
00:12:05.780 He got, Mehdi Hassan is brilliant at this, you know.
00:12:07.800 He's a world class debater.
00:12:09.140 And the thing is, is that it's a combination of intellectual points that he put forward, but also rhetorical.
00:12:15.700 Yes.
00:12:16.740 You know, presentation.
00:12:18.700 And I think he's one of the best in the world, really, especially on this issue.
00:12:21.680 Yeah.
00:12:21.900 And what was good about his debate was that he was actually able to kind of present his own primary source material.
00:12:29.940 Because he's the one doing these interviews with a lot of these Israeli representatives and stuff.
00:12:34.820 So he'll take what he said with such and such a person and say, well, I interviewed such and such a person.
00:12:40.880 Do you know what I mean?
00:12:41.540 It has a power to it when you do it like that, I think.
00:12:44.980 Yeah, it's good.
00:12:45.520 I mean, it was brilliant.
00:12:46.240 Alhamdulillah.
00:12:46.460 You guys saw it for yourself.
00:12:47.220 I think the full interview, the debate is on Zetel.
00:12:50.080 He's got this new media.
00:12:51.340 Zetel.
00:12:51.740 Zetel, yeah.
00:12:52.720 It's on there.
00:12:53.640 And there was one more on journalists trying to question where the funding comes from that.
00:12:57.200 But you can see they're just looking for any kind of excuse.
00:12:59.240 Qatar.
00:12:59.540 What's wrong with Qatar?
00:12:59.940 So even if it is.
00:13:00.920 What's wrong with Qatar?
00:13:01.480 You've got Israel, God knows, lobbies.
00:13:04.540 There's so many, how many media platforms here in the UK?
00:13:07.720 And you have an issue.
00:13:08.360 Let's suppose it's a fund about Qatar.
00:13:09.480 What's your point?
00:13:09.880 Look at you.
00:13:10.160 You're hypocrites.
00:13:11.180 Subhanallah.
00:13:11.520 You Zionist fund.
00:13:12.800 God knows Hollywood.
00:13:13.780 All kind of media platforms.
00:13:15.300 So anyway, Alhamdulillah, you can watch that, inshallah, there.
00:13:17.680 And yeah, that's all I have to say.
00:13:19.320 Any last words, guys?
00:13:20.220 No.
00:13:21.000 That's it.
00:13:21.280 May Allah bless you, brothers and sisters, inshallah.
00:13:22.740 And carry on supporting our brothers and sisters around the world.
00:13:25.220 And making this, inshallah, you guys play a massive role.
00:13:27.400 Share.
00:13:28.000 Carry on, inshallah.
00:13:28.580 Do not forget, brothers and sisters, what happened.
00:13:30.720 And like Mahdi Hassan said.
00:13:31.780 And what did Mahdi Hassan say?
00:13:33.780 He said, you know, nothing justifies October the 7th, but October the 7th justifies everything.
00:13:39.180 It was a good play on board.
00:13:39.940 That I'm going to be using anytime I come to.
