00:01:17.000I mean, you can't say any of these words, which is funny moving to New York because you see, like, the home of the holy tabernacle chalice.
00:04:48.000We had Christmas there, and he showed up as Santa.
00:04:52.000He had a beard made of, uh, cotton balls.
00:04:54.000His gloves were white surgical gloves, and he had one boot on because they only had one pair of Santa boots, and he wanted one of the other elves to also have boots.
00:05:03.000So he said, where are one of my boots, you know?
00:05:06.000So he had one boot on, surgical gloves, the cotton balls were falling apart, and he just took his glasses off and then put on a Santa hat.
00:05:13.000He was like, ho, ho, ho, I'm Santa, you know.
00:09:04.000No, in reality, this is a book I've wanted to write for years.
00:09:08.000And it is the only book of its kind that traces the entirety of the jihad threat from the beginning, from Muhammad to today, brings it all together.
00:09:17.000The first book of its kind to tell the story of the bloody jihad in India and relate it to the rest of the world, the jihad against Europe, the jihad against Israel, the jihad against the whole thing.
00:09:29.000This is the first time the whole story has been told.
00:09:32.000And it says here it goes back 1400 years.
00:10:28.000Their careers would have been destroyed, the authorities who prosecuted those rape gangs.
00:10:34.000Because Islamophobia really is much worse than jihad terror and much more of a concern as far as British authorities and authorities in many other places as well are concerned.
00:10:44.000Well, I was recently in London doing a talk with Tommy Robinson.
00:10:49.000And I met these Muslims who come to these things and I forget their names, but there's a big tall guy who brought a mouth guard for boxing.
00:11:01.000And they do this thing where they say, you don't know the Quran.
00:11:04.000They have that weird British accent that they do now where they sound almost Jamaican.
00:11:07.000He's like, you don't know the Quran, my friend.
00:11:40.000But the fact is, yes, the first half, chronologically, of the Quran is more peaceful than the other.
00:11:48.000It's full of warnings of hellfire, threats of hellfire, but essentially it's summed up in chapter 109 that says, I do not say to the unbelievers, I do not worship what you worship and you do not worship what I worship.
00:12:00.000And basically, let's leave each other alone.
00:12:02.000Obviously, the exhortations to warfare that come in the second part, the Medinan surahs, contradict that.
00:12:10.000So it's interesting that in a sense, Islam, from its foundation, was going backwards, going from peaceful and accepting to less intolerant and more primitive.
00:12:22.000And you sort of, and that's the opposite of Christianity.
00:12:25.000You know, we have the Old Testament that's all fire and brimstone, and then we have a 2.0 where we updated it and got much nicer.
00:12:31.000And that's the one we follow now is the nice guy.
00:12:42.000So it seems like Muslims from day one of the Quran have been going backwards.
00:12:48.000Well, yeah, there have always been these revival movements.
00:12:51.000What we have in the Islamic Republic of Iran is a revivalist movement that is designed to sweep out the un-Islamic government that preceded and to bring the society back to the true observance of Islam.
00:13:03.000There have been movements like that throughout Islamic history, as I show in the book.
00:13:07.000And this is one of the problems: that Islam encourages fanaticism because the Quran teaches that if you follow Islam, you will prosper in this world.
00:13:16.000That means if you're not prospering in this world, it's because you're not Islamic enough.
00:13:19.000And so every time you have a society that's not prospering, then it's blamed on not being Islamic enough, and you get more and more and more fanatical.
00:13:28.000Okay, well, here I'm going to throw you for a loop because when I see this pattern of people going back in time, it's quite unique.
00:13:36.000Most people get more advanced, more culturally advanced, more technologically advanced.
00:13:40.000So then I start to think, well, maybe it's genetic.
00:13:42.000And then you go, wait a minute, didn't Muhammad say it was okay to marry your first cousin?
00:13:46.000Could not this regression in progress and culture be an outward result of inbreeding?
00:13:56.000There's an extraordinary amount of inbreeding in Islamic cultures and an extraordinary high rate of birth defects as a result because it's very tribal in general.
00:14:07.000You go to Iraq and every little neighborhood is its own tribe and they hate everybody else.
00:14:16.000But ultimately, I think that it's a bigger problem than that.
00:14:20.000And it doesn't stem ultimately from that because it's in the texts and teachings of the religion itself to make war against unbelievers and to carry out that belligerence at all times and places at all opportunities.
00:14:32.000And this is what I show in the book, that everywhere this ideology goes, it creates conflict.
00:15:03.000I think that the genes would make it ultimately, if you carry that out to the logical conclusion, that argument, you've got people who are essentially too weak, too adult, too mentally disabled to carry through anything.
00:15:18.000And you see, unfortunately, there are jihadis who are very intelligent and very resolute.
00:16:28.000I was speaking at the University of Buffalo last year.
00:16:31.000And really, I say I was speaking, I'm using the term loosely.
00:16:33.000I was yelled at for an hour and a half at the University of Buffalo by all these self-righteous leftists.
00:16:38.000And there was one kid in the audience, and he held up a sign at one point, actually all through, saying queers against Islamophobia.
00:16:46.000And so I had, I was ready for heckling.
00:16:51.000I didn't expect that it would just be non-stop for an hour and a half, drowning me out.
00:16:55.000But I was ready with a big manual of Islamic law that's certified by Al-Azhar, the great authority in Cairo, the place where Obama spoke in 2009.
00:17:05.000And I read from that manual, which is certified by all these high Islamic authorities, about how homosexuals should be put to death.
00:17:16.000And this guy in a kaftan and a Kufi, he runs up to the Queers Against Islamophobia guy and gives him a big hug and says, this is my best friend.
00:18:06.000My name is Gavin McInnes, and I was originally born in Britain, but I spent a majority of my life in basically two Canadian countries, Ontario and Quebec.
00:18:29.000The Indians, by the way, in India, they took that and just blew it off the Richter scale.
00:18:34.000So now they have the untouchables at the bottom and then like people who poo gold at the top with various stages in between.
00:18:43.000They really went bananas with their interpretation of the British colonialist caste system, the class system.
00:18:50.000But I always thought that we here in North America, we're over that crap and it's Britain that has that whole, hello, hi, dotting, on one end and then like, what are you doing?
00:19:15.000And Canada doesn't have that, even though it's mostly British.
00:19:20.000Now, I think it's because the ones who get sick of the British caste, the British hierarchy, end up coming to Canada and go, let's start anew.
00:20:13.000So the categories that I've noticed that America is almost as bad as Britain when it comes to this obsession with class is golf skiing, French people, and black people.
00:20:26.000Now, I was going golfing with my friend, a Mexican man, a cousin of mine, actually, and he takes me to a fancy resort in Chicago.
00:20:36.000And I go there, and they give me these, I didn't have golf shoes, I borrowed my cousins, and then I show there, and I take off my Chucks, and they go, allow me to clean these, sir, while you're gone.
00:20:48.000They take my sneakers and clean them like they polished the little top part of the Chuck Taylor.
00:20:54.000And then when I come back, they give me my spotless Chuck Taylors and say, I'll clean your golf shoes now.
00:21:00.000I'm in a bathroom, by the way, that's the size of like three master bedrooms, but made of marble and tile.
00:24:49.000I remember you'd see your buddy, too, right over there, and you'd just get close to him and then just whip to the right and just send him flying.
00:24:57.000Oh, there was another trick we'd do where you jab your pole down in the snow right in front of his ski boot so it would stop his boot instantly and he would just launch without his skis and go flying down the hill.
00:28:36.000But the idea that French means classy is just so foreign to me.
00:28:42.000When I see French people and I talk to French people, I'm proud of myself that I can talk to the poor and be civil with them and not think I'm better than them.
00:31:42.000It's almost like hearing someone say, tupper de mernin.
00:31:45.000No, like, you know, I was going to do a fancy English accent, but like, imagine during the plague, the guy who wants thruppence for a bun, sir, sir, more cruel, please.
00:32:25.000Now, I've been criticized for being too callous when it comes to the African-American experience and poo-pooing the whole taboo of various words you can and can't say, and I should be more sensitive about slavery.
00:32:38.000I'm not because I'm from Ontario and Quebec.
00:32:40.000In Ontario, black people, there's so few of them that they just assimilated.
00:32:44.000So I grew up with some black guys and they played hockey and they listened to Rush.
00:32:53.000And Montreal is even less blackety black.
00:32:57.000In Montreal, in Quebec, the only blacks we knew, and there was a lot of them actually, but the only blacks we knew were Haitians because Quebec is very strict about language and you're not coming to Quebec unless you speak perfect French.
00:33:09.000So they only really allowed Haitians to come in as far as black people goes.
00:33:13.000And if you're rich enough to get out of a shithole like Haiti, you're rich.
00:33:19.000So all the black people when I was growing up in the 80s in Montreal were nerds.
00:33:26.000So when I would hear, oh, there's me, a bunch of black people at this party, I'd go, oh, great.
00:33:29.000They're probably not even going to have booze.
00:33:31.000It's just going to be a bunch of guys wearing blazers and scarves.
00:33:35.000They're like boarding school kids, you know?
00:34:05.000It's not exactly like a black church, is it?
00:34:08.000Hi, this guy would like to shake your hand.
00:34:10.000Now you could just drop the needle anywhere on this record and it'll be a snooze fest.
00:34:20.000No, it doesn't matter where you put it.
00:34:32.000No, it doesn't matter where you put it.
00:34:32.000Anyway, in America, French people are fancy pants.
00:34:37.000Black people are a big deal, and we have to be very careful what we say.
00:34:40.000Golf is for the elite, and skiing is a very fancy aristocratic sport.
00:34:44.000Where I'm from, all three of those things, golf skiing in French, is white trash, and black people are super square Christian nerds.
00:34:55.000So I'm sorry that I'm so insensitive to your culture, but I'm only just now starting to figure it out.
00:35:06.000I don't know if you know what au gratin means, but it is a fancy French dish that involves thinly sliced potatoes and I think breadcrumbs or something.
00:35:15.000It's very, very expensive and I don't recommend you get it.
