Are you concerned about the mobs of angry Muslims in cities waving Palestinian flags?
00:00:07.000
Well, if you want even bigger mobs of angry Muslims, then you should support Israel bombing Gaza.
00:00:14.000
That's right. When you support Israel bombing Gaza and other neighboring Muslim countries, you create refugees,
00:00:21.000
which inevitably make it to the U.S., Canada, and other European countries.
00:00:26.000
When a Muslim refugee comes to Canada, for example, do you think they magically stop being anti-Semitic when they cross the border?
00:00:37.000
They buy some Tim Hortons and they remain just as anti-Semitic as they were when they got here.
00:00:42.000
So you support Hamas, a terrorist organization that kills women and children?
00:00:49.000
Personally, as a Western white man thousands of miles away from this foreign conflict, I don't really care.
00:00:55.000
But I would prefer if you two found a way to stop killing each other so this doesn't escalate into a world war.
00:01:01.000
Excuse me, Muslims and Palestinians have always been the victims of the Israeli colonizers since the beginning.
00:01:08.000
Muslims have never done anything wrong to Jews.
00:01:10.000
I think that's quite the oversimplification as well.
00:01:13.000
Because from what I can see, you two have been hating, dehumanizing, and killing each other for quite a long time now.
00:01:19.000
It scares the shit out of me. I want to stay out of it.
00:01:22.000
I do encourage Jews and Muslims, though, to figure your shit out.
00:01:27.000
This has been a message from white people everywhere.
00:01:30.000
Well, I am a white American and I support Israel.
00:01:34.000
They represent democracy in the Middle East and if we don't go...
00:01:50.000
Are you really going to support Islamic extremism?
00:02:06.000
White supremacist. You sound like a white ethno-nationalist.
00:02:11.000
I'm pretty sure I just watched you two dehumanize each other all week.
00:02:14.000
Calling each other animals and calling to genocide one another.
00:02:18.000
But yes, it's the white people that are the racists.
