Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ The Hamas hate rallies continue across the US and Canada. How long until a Jew gets shot？

00:00:00.000 Hello, my friends. I don't know if you saw the news, but yesterday there was a Molotov cocktail

00:00:05.080 attack on a Jewish synagogue in Montreal. And today, Jewish schools were found to have been

00:00:11.540 shot at by a gun. Where is it going to end? I'll take you through some of the latest.

00:00:55.200 Tonight, the Hamas hate rallies continue across the United States and Canada. How long until a Jew 1.00

00:01:08.540 gets shot? It's November 9th, and this is The Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:12.860 Shame on you, you censorious bug.

00:01:25.200 I saw this story a couple of days ago. A Jewish protester who was waving an Israeli flag was killed

00:01:35.180 in Los Angeles. According to the coroner, it was a homicide. He was allegedly attacked by a Muslim

00:01:42.980 professor who supports Hamas. A homicide. Was it murder? Well, that's what the word homicide seems to

00:01:51.180 mean. Also in Los Angeles, Gal Gadot, the Israeli actress behind the Wonder Woman franchise, she was

00:02:00.660 in Los Angeles at the Museum of Tolerance screening a video series by the Israeli government showing

00:02:09.600 people in Hollywood the absolutely atrocious and barbaric attacks on October 7th. Some of the

00:02:16.520 footage is so shocking, it has not been released in public. It's been shown in different embassies

00:02:21.840 around the world, and Gal Gadot was showing it to her friends from Hollywood at this Museum of

00:02:27.100 Tolerance. Well, word got out that she was in town, an Israeli who supported Israel, and so pro-Hamas 0.84

00:02:35.260 supporters showed up at a place called the Museum of Tolerance, and they had a little anti-Semitic

00:02:42.640 riot right there. Take a look at this footage by a news helicopter overhead. That's Los Angeles,

00:02:51.080 which has a large Jewish population, by the way. Not as large as New York's. They've had their share

00:02:57.120 of mini riots as well, held back in this case by police, but the Jews there were assaulted physically.

00:03:06.080 I don't need to reach into the United States to show you what's going on. In the past few days

00:03:13.420 across Canada, things have moved up a notch. Here are students at Concordia University in Montreal

00:03:20.440 chanting, throw the kikes out, kike being the equivalent of the n-word to describe Jews. Here, 1.00

00:03:28.700 take a look. Just stop for a second and imagine someone saying that to a black person or someone

00:03:42.240 using similar language about any other group. Well, here's the University of Montreal, where a

00:03:47.580 professor was shouting at Jews, Professor Yanis Arab, was shouting to Jews to go back to Poland,

00:03:55.020 Sharmuta, which is an Arabic phrase for whore. Shouting that at a Jewish student. Take a look at this.

00:04:15.900 That's a professor. Imagine if you were a Jewish student or any student who just didn't like that

00:04:22.480 extreme language pumped out by a professor. And by the way, those Jewish kids were in a student club

00:04:29.380 area. They were having those little pictures of the kidnapped Jewish babies. And that's what motivated 0.98

00:04:35.640 this vomiting of racist hatred that in any other situation would have immediately resulted in the

00:04:44.380 suspension, the termination, the firing of the perpetrators. But here, oh, well, they're just very

00:04:51.100 passionate. That's schools. Schools are bad because you have the woke Canadian industry met with

00:05:01.260 migrants from places where anti-Semitism is endemic. But what about if you just want to take the subway

00:05:07.220 in Toronto? Well, Union Station is the largest subway station in Toronto. It's right across from the Royal

00:05:14.480 York Hotel, right downtown. They call it Union Station because it's where the lines cross and the

00:05:18.580 train starts. And Palestinian activists took over the place. They blocked the place. Take a look at this.

00:05:25.860 National and military support as they follow up and justify their crimes.

00:05:31.080 No more money for Israel's crimes. Not another table. Not another time. No more money for Israel's crimes. 0.90

00:05:40.420 National Erfahrung.

00:05:41.420 National and military support as they haveam secure whiletopicikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhkhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikhikkhHHouleди's

00:05:41.980 It's nice to get through this area right here, please, just to give us a little bit.

00:05:47.980 Please, the airport.

00:05:49.980 Imagine being a Jew, not just a Jew, 0.99

00:06:18.040 but perhaps an identifiable Jew wearing your yarmulke or a Star of David around your neck, trying to walk through that.

00:06:24.460 Would you feel safe?

00:06:26.440 Well, I don't know if you'd be allowed to walk through at all.

00:06:29.280 And that's in public property, shutting down a subway stop.

00:06:33.800 But today also, Palestinian protesters occupied private buildings.

00:06:39.480 They were in a bank, not just the main branch of the bank, an office tower yesterday,

00:06:44.700 but they actually started invading bank branches, and police just stood and looked on.

00:06:52.220 Take a look at this.

00:06:54.540 From the river to the sea!

00:06:56.760 From the river to the sea!

00:06:59.100 Palestine will be free! 0.90

00:07:00.980 Palestine will be free! 0.90

00:07:03.700 Thank you, Charlotte!

00:07:05.980 Woo! 0.99

00:07:06.500 Woo! 0.99

00:07:06.560 Scotiabank, you have blood on your hands!

00:07:13.120 Scotiabank, you have blood on your hands!

00:07:14.860 Palestine. Free, free, free Palestine. From the river to the sea. From the river to the sea. Palestine will be free. Palestine will be free.

00:07:39.600 Palestine will be free.

00:08:05.600 Imagine if a group of masked people stormed into a bank and shut it down.

00:08:10.600 You don't have to imagine.

00:08:12.600 Remember how the police acted when anti-vaccine mandate or anti-lockdown activists walked in public places?

00:08:20.600 They were arrested and jailed.

00:08:22.600 This is in private banks and offices and shutting down subway lines and the police just stand back.

00:08:30.600 You know, for years, the Iranian government would organize an annual anti-Semitic rally in Toronto called Al-Quds Day.

00:08:38.600 It was a made up day by the government of Iran.

00:08:41.600 It was basically an anti-Semitic hate fest in Toronto.

00:08:46.600 It was clearly organized and orchestrated by the Iranian government.

00:08:50.600 It was part of their foreign policy to stir up anti-Semitic hatred around the world.

00:08:54.600 Those same forces are now recreating their hate rallies, but they're doing it in private buildings and public buildings and in subway lines in the offices of members of parliament and not a wink of pushback by the Canadian government.

00:09:09.600 If you think that's bad, take a look at this speech by a hate preacher on top of a building, preaching to more than 10,000 haters down below.

00:09:21.600 Take a listen and listen to that word, amen, amen, ameen.

00:09:25.600 Take a listen.

00:09:26.600 That's Adil Sharkawi, an extremist pro-terrorist activist who has in the past been jailed.

00:09:49.600 He's back on the streets preaching hate.

00:09:52.600 Police won't touch him.

00:09:54.600 I mean, if he's unvaxxed, then maybe.

00:09:57.600 If he refused to wear a mask during the lockdowns, maybe.

00:09:59.600 But just calling for the death of Jews, no problem. 1.00

00:10:02.600 Have Adil.

00:10:04.600 Well, that was the words, and it's transformed into deeds.

00:10:08.600 Did you see this story yesterday?

00:10:11.600 A synagogue in Montreal hit by a Molotov cocktail.

00:10:15.600 Take a look at this.

00:10:16.600 Our reporter Alexa Lavoie was on the scene.

00:10:19.600 Morning for morning services.

00:10:21.600 There was a smell of smoke in the area of the main vestibule, which we don't use every morning.

00:10:29.600 And a few of the members went outside, and they noticed that there was the rest of what appears to have been a Molotov cocktail that had been thrown against the building.

00:10:42.600 And you can see that there are still pieces of glass here.

00:10:46.600 And you can see that there's the remnants of fire scorching the doors of the synagogue.

00:10:51.600 How do you feel about this attack that occurred last night?

00:10:55.600 We are saddened that the hate that is propagated by people such as Adil Sharkawi and others at pro-Hamas demonstrations, and I've used that word clearly because they are very much pro-Hamas demonstrations.

00:11:12.600 These words, which incite to violence, sadly, have found their home here.

00:11:21.600 So first the firebombing yesterday, and then this morning we discover shootings, gunshots at Jewish schools called yeshivas.

00:11:30.600 Again, our reporter in Montreal, Alexa Lavoie, was on the scene.

00:11:33.600 According to witnesses at the Yeshiva Gedola in Outremont, security videos footage showed a man who came on foot halfway to the entrance, shot in the middle of the door, and left.

00:11:51.600 The bullet passed through the first door and shattered the glass of the second door.

00:11:59.600 So I let you on the interview with the police officer who gave us an update, and with some of the people who were on the ground when we arrived.

00:12:08.600 The two events that are investigated at this point by the Montreal Police Department following two 911 calls that were placed this morning for impacts that were found on two entrance doors of the school.

00:12:17.600 One in St. Kevin Avenue in NDG, the other one here in Outremont, that was found on Deakin Road.

00:12:23.600 So police officers were called on site.

00:12:25.600 They were able to locate those two impacts that were found.

00:12:28.600 So from there, there was a permit that was established.

00:12:30.600 We've looked around so far at this point, just to mention that those two events, according to information that we have, those two events took place on the course of the night.

00:12:37.600 So there was no one in the school, so no one was injured.

00:12:40.600 So investigators are on their way.

00:12:41.600 They'll do the analysis of the scene here and on the other one on St. Kevin.

00:12:45.600 They'll try to look at some surveillance cameras to have footage and information on potential suspect or any vehicle that could be seen leaving the scene.

00:12:51.600 So for now, we don't have any arrest, but investigators are going to try to gather all the information.

00:12:55.600 Well, what do you think would have happened if it was gunshots or Molotov cocktails thrown at a mosque or at an abortion clinic or at a gay pride parade or an office?

00:13:05.600 Well, Justin Trudeau would have had a national press conference speaking in his best substitute drama teacher voice.

00:13:12.600 The RCMP would have launched a task force.

00:13:14.600 They would have called in to effect terrorism laws.

00:13:18.600 The CBC would go live from the location for hours, but it's just the Jews. 1.00

00:13:23.600 And, you know, both sides need to calm down.

00:13:27.600 Justin Trudeau uses the same language when there's anti-Semitic attacks as he uses overseas, a false equivalence.

00:13:34.600 Because, look, he can do the math.

00:13:36.600 He looks around.

00:13:37.600 He sees that there's 1.5 million voters in Canada who are Muslim and just 300,000 Jews, and he can count noses. 0.79

00:13:44.600 And, of course, there's the liberal Hamas caucus. 0.78

00:13:47.600 There's a few stragglers, Jews, left in the party.

00:13:50.600 But Justin Trudeau has decided that he will turn a blind eye to anti-Semitism and even to anti-Semitic violence because he is not about to lose his last remnant of support in this country.

00:14:03.600 Justin Trudeau is behind in the polls by at least 10 points.

00:14:07.600 There's no way he's going to alienate the people who helped put him there.

00:14:10.600 And, by the way, he's never really been for the West.

00:14:14.600 Part of wokeism is being against the West.

00:14:16.600 And, of course, Israel is not in the West, but it's seen as an outpost of Western values in the Middle East.

00:14:22.600 It's a liberal democracy that is integrated in the Western economy.

00:14:25.600 They call America the great Satan.

00:14:28.600 They call Israel the little Satan.

00:14:29.600 And so the woke ideology of looking at everything through the prism of oppressor and oppressed is transposed onto Israel.

00:14:36.600 And even though millions of Israelis are visible minorities, the Jews even are called Sephardi Jews.

00:14:42.600 They're from Arab lands.

00:14:43.600 Kicked out, by the way, from Arab countries like Morocco and Algeria and Tunisia and Iraq and Yemen and Iran. 0.99

00:14:49.600 After the birth of Israel, they were all kicked out. 0.53

00:14:52.600 They were all refugees.

00:14:53.600 So you have many brown skin Jews in Israel.

00:14:56.600 Nonetheless, they're called white supremacists because in that cultural Marxist prism, Israel is the oppressor.

00:15:02.600 Palestinians are the oppressed. 0.99

00:15:04.600 And so literally anything is fair game, including murder and torture.

00:15:08.600 That is the woke ideology.

00:15:10.600 Justin Trudeau subscribes to that ideology.

00:15:14.600 And that is one of the reasons why he's anti-Israel and pro-Hamas.

00:15:20.600 People look to their leaders.

00:15:23.600 And in Canada, our national leader is the most pro-Hamas leader in the G7. 0.89

00:15:29.600 In fact, now that I think about it, I think every single leader of the G7 has visited Israel to stand with Israel and against Hamas.

00:15:39.600 Every single leader, that is, except for Justin Trudeau.

00:15:43.600 He's made it clear whose side he's on.

00:15:45.600 He is the most pro-Hamas leader in the entire free world. 0.99

00:15:50.600 Now, I don't know if you recall, it was before I was born and perhaps before you were born, too.

00:15:56.600 But Canada had a terrorist problem on the streets of Quebec before.

00:16:01.600 It was led by a terrorist group called the FLQ, Front de Liberation de Quebec, the Liberation Front of Quebec.

00:16:07.600 And it had ties with foreign countries, too.

00:16:09.600 In that case, Cuba.

00:16:11.600 They kidnapped a British diplomat.

00:16:14.600 They killed a Quebec cabinet minister.

00:16:17.600 And they set off some mailbox bombs.

00:16:20.600 So they did, in fact, kill somebody.

00:16:22.600 And that, thank God, hasn't happened yet with these Hamas terrorists in Canada. 1.00

00:16:27.600 But one kidnapping and one murder, and again, those are too many, but that was the scale of it, was enough for Pierre Trudeau to put the entire country under martial law to suspend civil liberties, including, by the way, appointing censors in the newspapers.

00:16:45.600 That was one of the tools that Pierre Trudeau invoked.

00:16:48.600 He arrested hundreds of political opponents.

00:16:52.600 And I don't know if you recall, but in one of his most famous comments, he was asked by a reporter how far he would go.

00:16:58.600 And he said, just watch me.

00:17:01.600 At any cost, how far would you go with that?

00:17:03.600 How far would you extend that?

00:17:04.600 Just watch me.

00:17:05.600 That was Pierre Trudeau perhaps overreacting to one shooting.

00:17:10.600 And again, I'm not diminishing the gravity of that one shooting.

00:17:14.600 But Justin Trudeau, judging by his conduct these past weeks, well, he would have been on the side of the FLQ.

00:17:24.600 What a contrast to his brutal handling of the peaceful truckers.

00:17:29.600 You know, we're sending our Montreal reporter, Alexa Lavoie, to London, England this weekend to cover the dueling marches.

00:17:39.600 As you may know, this weekend is Remembrance Day.

00:17:42.600 It's celebrated on the same day in the United Kingdom as it is here in Canada.

00:17:46.600 And they have a great tradition of Remembrance Day in the United Kingdom.

00:17:50.600 They take it very seriously.

00:17:52.600 They have poppies there like we do over here.

00:17:55.600 And yet the pro-Hamas activists have said they will march on Remembrance Day.

00:18:02.600 And they will march right down Whitehall where the National War Memorial is in that country.

00:18:07.600 Politicians have asked them not to.

00:18:10.600 The police have asked them not to.

00:18:12.600 But that's the thing about Hamas. 0.85

00:18:14.600 They don't really take well to instructions.

00:18:16.600 They're here to overthrow.

00:18:18.600 That's what they mean when they say intifada revolution.

00:18:21.600 That's what they say about globalizing the revolution.

00:18:25.600 There's as much threat on the streets of the United Kingdom as there is in other places such as the Middle East. 0.99

00:18:32.600 It'll be fascinating to see what happens.

00:18:34.600 I look forward to the reports by Alexa Lavoie of what happens when the jihadists and the British mix and meet on the streets. 0.66

00:18:43.600 She'll be very careful, of course.

00:18:46.600 What I'm really worried about, though, is our own country.

00:18:49.600 In the course of a few days, we've gone from pro-Hamas hate rallies to Molotov cocktails and now bullet holes.

00:18:56.600 There has been one homicide in the United States.

00:18:59.600 I fear that that will not be the last.

00:19:02.600 And I fear that in Canada, the worst is yet to come.

00:19:07.600 Stay with us.

00:19:09.600 Up next, our friend Mark Morano.

00:19:12.600 Well, as you know, one of the signature moves that Rebel News has done since we were born is to attend the United Nations global warming conferences.

00:19:33.600 And they've been fascinating.

00:19:34.600 We went to Marrakesh, Morocco.

00:19:37.600 We've been to Poland, to Germany.

00:19:39.600 We've been all around the world.

00:19:41.600 Now, they held off during the lockdowns, but then they came back last year in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.

00:19:49.600 And this year it's in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.

00:19:53.600 We're interested in going, but the problem with Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, they're not totally totalitarian countries, but they're a little bit on the authoritarian side.

00:20:07.600 And because Canada has blackballed us at the United Nations, that is, the Environment Department in Canada has instructed the UN not to accredit Rebel News.

00:20:19.600 And we have that in writing.

00:20:21.600 We typically go to these conferences as outsiders, as citizen journalists.

00:20:26.600 We're not allowed in the velvet rope, but that's fine.

00:20:29.600 We do great journalism from the outside.

00:20:31.600 Trouble is, that doesn't work in countries that do not have a robust freedom of the press.

00:20:38.600 So when we were in Poland, when we were in Germany, we were able to scrum politicians to our heart's content.

00:20:46.600 I think we went to Glasgow, too, if I recall.

00:20:48.600 But we were advised by lawyers, for example, in Cairo, who we asked, they said, if you do your Rebel News style of journalism in Egypt without the UN accreditation, you will be deported and most likely jailed.

00:21:04.600 So we made the decision to cancel our trip there.

00:21:07.600 And as you know, Rebel News has recently been to Dubai and the United Arab Emirates.

00:21:13.600 And by the way, I've got nothing but nice things to say about them.

00:21:16.600 And I should note that the United Arab Emirates has not had Canada style riots and hate rallies in response to the Hamas attacks.

00:21:25.600 United Arab Emirates has been more civilized than Canada.

00:21:29.600 But still, we know from our trip there, they do not allow free journalism on the streets.

00:21:36.600 In fact, even on our trip, our cameraman, Kean Simone, was told to put his camera away.

00:21:42.600 Isn't that interesting?

00:21:43.600 So to my regret, Rebel News has not been able to send journalists to the last one and the next one.

00:21:51.600 Not because we don't want to, but because our reporters will most certainly be arrested.

00:21:57.600 But we have a friend who is going and he has managed to get accreditation.

00:22:02.600 And frankly, he's what I'd like to call a one man army, perhaps the most informed, best read person I know on the politics of global warming.

00:22:14.600 You know who I'm talking about, my friend, Mark Morano, the boss of climate depot dot com.

00:22:19.600 He joins me down.

00:22:20.600 Mark, great to see you actually have been accredited, not as a journalist, but as an NGO.

00:22:26.600 Am I right?

00:22:27.600 Am I right?

00:22:28.600 Yes.

00:22:29.600 And we go every year.

00:22:30.600 Now, we did run into the problem similar to, well, probably, I don't know if it's similar, but we sort of asked for it.

00:22:35.600 In 2016 in Marrakesh, Morocco, I had the bright idea of putting a Trump cardboard cutout.

00:22:41.600 This was right after Donald Trump's election, like two weeks after I put a Trump cardboard cutout, started shredding the U.N. climate agreement with a paper shredder at the media tent outside inside inside the actual U.N., but outside the media tent.

00:22:56.600 And I was immediately descended on after about two and a half, three minutes armed U.N. climate cops came and seized my cardboard cutout.

00:23:05.600 And they escorted me and Craig Rucker, a CFAC, out into the desert. We had to wander the desert. Now, it was only for about 100 yards, maybe a football field.

00:23:12.600 But still, we had to wander the desert. And then after we came around to the parking lot, they sent out the armed U.N. climate cops again to seize all my press releases, paperwork and go through my bag.

00:23:23.600 And they revoked our credentials. Well, it took a whole year of a lot of finagling.

00:23:27.600 And we had to go in and say we are sorry and pledge not to do that kind of misbehavior again.

00:23:32.600 And so we actually got our credentials back. But it was a long process, took about a year.

00:23:38.600 And we are like you. We are on a watch list. But of course, we're still in.

00:23:42.600 But I will say this, Ezra, the rebel news after what you did on the streets of Davos.

00:23:47.600 First of all, there's no justice in the world in terms of media awards.

00:23:50.600 You should be getting massive mainstream journalistic awards for what you accomplished in the streets of Davos with Borla, with Greta, et cetera.

00:24:00.600 But they will never give it to you. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if next year in Davos, they are on the lookout for anyone doing what you guys did or specifically you guys.

00:24:09.600 Again, I think they'll have a whole new rules and the Swiss Guard won't be as friendly next time because when the global elites want something done, they usually get it done.

00:24:18.600 And they're going to want to shut you down and anyone who descends down.

00:24:21.600 Isn't that interesting? Well, first of all, I remember what you did in Marrakesh and our friend Sheila Gunn-Reed was there.

00:24:27.600 That was the last time we were actually accredited.

00:24:30.600 After that, the disgraced former environment minister, Catherine McKenna, instructed the UN not to accredit us.

00:24:36.600 But what we did in Davos is exactly my point. We are not credentialed at the World Economic Forum.

00:24:43.600 We have not been allowed inside.

00:24:45.600 But because Switzerland is a civil liberties respecting country, it's actually a very liberal democracy.

00:24:51.600 It's a wonderful place. Their police have a light touch and their police are heavily armed.

00:24:56.600 Like they have big, semi-automatic rifles. They look paramilitary.

00:25:01.600 But they observed us scrumming Albert Bourla of Pfizer and they didn't even...

00:25:08.600 In Canada, the police would have probably intervened. In Switzerland, they were very hands-off.

00:25:12.600 And we're getting a little bit off topic here, but I recall that when we were pulled over by police,

00:25:16.600 I said, freedom of the press, and they said, you're right, move on.

00:25:20.600 Like they, I have to say, I've been around the world to many places, including America and the United Kingdom and Australia and New Zealand.

00:25:27.600 And Switzerland, their police have been the most free speech oriented police I have ever encountered.

00:25:36.600 So hopefully, they won't crack down on us.

00:25:39.600 I think the World Economic Forum themselves might put a warning out saying don't wander the streets.

00:25:43.600 But anyways, let's come back to you because, I mean, thanks for your kudos for our work at the World Economic Forum.

00:25:48.600 And that is exactly why we can't go to Dubai or Egypt without credentials, because they would jail us.

00:25:54.600 Okay, you know, thanks for letting me tell those stories, but I want to talk to you.

00:25:59.600 The world is on fire right now.

00:26:02.600 Whether it's the, you know, I feel like we're sleepwalking to World War III in the Middle East or the Ukraine-Russia conflict.

00:26:11.600 I, you know, massive inflation, poverty.

00:26:14.600 The world is dangerous now.

00:26:17.600 And I think that means that carbon taxes and green schemes, which are sort of a luxury policy item.

00:26:24.600 Yes.

00:26:25.600 That's what Democrats talk about when everything is going well.

00:26:28.600 That's what ordinary people say.

00:26:30.600 Yeah, I'm totally in favor of that when things are going well.

00:26:34.600 When the world is not going well, I think it's one of the first policy items to be taken off the front burner.

00:26:41.600 Why don't you give me your thoughts on that?

00:26:43.600 How is the state of carbon taxes and green schemes in 2023 as opposed to two years ago?

00:26:50.600 Well, let me just say that even in good times, people, you know, you have your activists and you have your government and corporate.

00:26:57.600 They all push it extra hard in good times and prosperity.

00:27:00.600 But even when we had the good times years ago, you had Pew Research, major respected polling, ask people their priorities and climate change on a word, whether it was Gallup and whether it was all these different international and national polling firms would find climate was ranked 18, 19 out of 20, 20 out of 20, 10 out of 10.

00:27:20.600 Even Gallup one year found among environmental issues.

00:27:24.600 And this wasn't that long ago, five years ago, that climate was dead last among environmental issues behind air, clean air, clean water, species extinction, deforestation.

00:27:33.600 It's always been dead last to the general public.

00:27:37.600 Now, what ends up happening here is they recognize this years ago.

00:27:41.600 And I still say March 2020 changed the whole mindset.

00:27:44.600 They no longer cared about whether the public was behind it or whether they had to sell it.

00:27:50.600 They introduced the Green New Deal in Congress in the United States, never scheduled a vote, never voted on it, never had hearings, never did anything.

00:27:57.600 They don't need it because everything's bypassing democracy, corporate government collusion.

00:28:01.600 Now, when it comes to this agenda, every cabinet agency.

00:28:03.600 So that's what's happened.

00:28:05.600 So that has gone on a pace.

00:28:06.600 And then you add in the Inflation Reduction Act, which has brought in hundreds of billions of dollars now and with trillions committed.

00:28:14.600 And it's particularly insidious because decades into the future, Ezra, regardless of how green energy is doing, they're going to keep funding it and mandating it as part of this law.

00:28:25.600 Now, obviously, that can be repealed.

00:28:27.600 But you asked me the state of green energy right now.

00:28:30.600 It is in complete collapse around the world, starting with the covid lockdowns, which impacted supply chain economics.

00:28:38.600 Then you had the Russia-Ukraine war, which had a lot of negative effects, obviously, on supply chain.

00:28:43.600 You had the pipeline blow up the Russian Nord Stream pipeline, which even affected more.

00:28:49.600 So you had Russia now aligning with China, all these geopolitical shifts.

00:28:54.600 Then you have the terrorist attack in Israel, which then turns the public's attention, rightly so, to more pressing issues. 1.00

00:29:02.600 So right now, it's almost a gift, I would say.

00:29:05.600 This is a bizarre thing.

00:29:07.600 Because green energy is collapsing, no one's really noticing.

00:29:10.600 And when I say green energy is collapsing, I mean there's at least a dozen major offshore wind projects on the U.S. East Coast belly up.

00:29:17.600 This is despite massive subsidies, massive tax credits, massive bans of their competition, i.e., fossil fuels.

00:29:26.600 They can't make it work.

00:29:27.600 They can't even get a profit.

00:29:29.600 Then you have the electric car collapse, both in Europe and the United States.

00:29:34.600 Remember, they're banning gas powered cars.

00:29:36.600 Never vote of Congress.

00:29:37.600 No vote of anyone anywhere.

00:29:38.600 I mean, even California, the heart, this epicenter of this.

00:29:41.600 California legislature never voted.

00:29:43.600 This was all done by executive order, unelected bureaucrats, corporate government collusion.

00:29:48.600 You have banks saying they won't give out car loans.

00:29:50.600 You have the World Bank saying they're going to defund electric cars.

00:29:52.600 We now have the CEOs of just about every major Western automaker.

00:29:57.600 From Mercedes to Volkswagen to Ford, Chrysler, all saying EVs, this is not working.

00:30:03.600 They're piling up on our lots.

00:30:05.600 We are hemorrhaging money.

00:30:07.600 And as they're saying this, they're looking at the next 10 years and all the mandates are coming in more.

00:30:12.600 Government doesn't care. 0.88

00:30:13.600 This is an ideology like the Soviet Union. 0.62

00:30:16.600 It's like an old Soviet playbook. 0.88

00:30:18.600 You're studying Soviet central planning.

00:30:20.600 They're going forward with this statutorily in our books.

00:30:23.600 But finally, we're getting the CEOs to come back.

00:30:26.600 So what's happened globally is this is an utter and complete collapse.

00:30:29.600 And in the case of EVs, one last point.

00:30:32.600 China is about to become the world's number one automaker over this time period if these mandates continue and nothing changes in Europe and the United States.

00:30:40.600 And what I mean by that is China has the monopoly on all the rare earth mining for the EV batteries.

00:30:45.600 They have the cheapest EV cars.

00:30:47.600 They have the lowest environmental standards, the lowest human rights standards.

00:30:50.600 And even EU is now considering tariffs to prevent the Chinese invasion of electric cars.

00:30:56.600 The U.S. automakers see it.

00:30:58.600 The big recent labor strike in the U.S., the UAW, United Auto Workers, was a big part of this.

00:31:04.600 So it is an utter and complete collapse across the board.

00:31:08.600 No one's really paying much attention.

00:31:10.600 I was on Fox News last week.

00:31:12.600 They're really the only major story that we got out on the mainstream cable corporate news anywhere.

00:31:17.600 And this is what's happening as they head into this COP 28 in Dubai.

00:31:23.600 And it's going to be I'm not expecting much out of this, except they're going to be trying to cover up and put a happy face on what is only the miserable collapse of this entire agenda.

00:31:33.600 And when I say collapse, I don't mean like, oh, in six months it'll recover.

00:31:36.600 It's not workable.

00:31:38.600 We knew that for years.

00:31:39.600 And I can explain the history of that if you'd like.

00:31:41.600 Yeah.

00:31:42.600 You know, I'm excited.

00:31:43.600 Just before we turn on the camera, you and I were talking about Dubai, and I understand you've never been before.

00:31:48.600 It's an amazing, miraculous city with so many superlatives, tallest building in the world, Burj Khalifa.

00:31:54.600 Like that whole country has sprung up in the last 20 years.

00:31:57.600 And I was there a couple of months ago.

00:31:59.600 We went with about 40 rebel enthusiasts to check it out on a fact finding trip.

00:32:05.600 And I know you will, you will be impressed with the industry of the place, but what you will know, I went there in August when it was 40, 45 degrees Celsius, which is probably 120 Fahrenheit, something like that.

00:32:18.600 That city, not just the skyscrapers and the manufactured islands, like the Palm Jumeirah it's called, but nothing would work in that city, just air conditioning alone, without fossil fuels.

00:32:34.600 I think pound for pound, person for person, Dubai has probably got to be one of the most carbon intensive places in the world.

00:32:42.600 And I say this with great admiration and wonder, as Alex Epstein would say, it wasn't climate change, it was climate mastery.

00:32:51.600 The United Arab Emirates has mastered life in a scorching hot desert, and they've made the desert in their own way bloom, not so much with trees, but with skyscrapers. 0.82

00:33:01.600 And the jarring juxtaposition of this marvel of industry, completely driven, like the water is desalinated from the sea through hydrocarbons.

00:33:14.600 And I think you're going to be blown away by the industry of the place.

00:33:17.600 I think you're going to love Dubai for different reasons.

00:33:20.600 And I mean, it's not just the Las Vegas of the Middle East, it is an industrial marvel.

00:33:24.600 And the contrast of that pro growth, get it done, can do, superlative, higher, faster, farther, better, versus the ideological mindset of the global warming set, which is reduce, reuse, recycle, degrowth.

00:33:42.600 Don't turn your air conditioning on too much in the summer.

00:33:46.600 Don't turn your heat on too much in the winter.

00:33:48.600 It couldn't be a bigger contrast.

00:33:51.600 And I just wish we could go.

00:33:53.600 But because we're not accredited by the U.N., we cannot go to a country that doesn't have a free press.

00:34:00.600 Sorry, back to you. I just want to tell you my thoughts on Dubai.

00:34:03.600 Yeah, well, I'm looking forward to it. You're exactly right now.

00:34:06.600 Their leader, El Jabber, is actually virtue signaling to the whole COP28 U.N. climate agenda. 0.95

00:34:12.600 They're going to have and we've already been invited to go look at, you know, I don't know how many acres or football fields of solar panels.

00:34:18.600 So they got the show on to look like that they're committed to the climate agenda.

00:34:23.600 But the key point of what you said, Ezra, is they're not living like they're committed to it.

00:34:27.600 And that's a good thing. We're praising them.

00:34:29.600 You and I would both praise them for that. But politically, they still are pandering to this COP28 agenda.

00:34:36.600 And a lot of the activists, the climate activists and even some U.N. officials aren't happy that they chose this because they see it.

00:34:43.600 Everything you just described, they see it as a mockery of the U.N. agenda.

00:34:46.600 The last thing the U.N. is about is mastery of the climate, can do attitude, making it happen.

00:34:52.600 The U.N. is about impoverishing, central planning, putting them in charge, climate funds, redistribution of wealth and having as few people as possible.

00:35:02.600 You know, a centralization of decision making to only a few.

00:35:05.600 So I wish they would even stand taller. And I know against this U.N. agenda.

00:35:11.600 So unfortunately, we're going to have to listen to the the leader of Dubai, go up there and probably pay lip service and he'll give a big keynote speech.

00:35:18.600 But in terms of why this is so important now, you know, I mentioned when Arnold Schwarzenegger was governor, 2006, he passed the Climate Global Warming Solutions Act.

00:35:28.600 And he was hailed as a climate hero for decades after he did the first. He was a climate hero.

00:35:33.600 He did nothing. All he did was commit California to a bunch of things.

00:35:37.600 He left office and nothing really had been done by that point. So he got away with it.

00:35:41.600 He got away with it. But what happens is we're at the threshold point, whether it's EVs, whether it's solar, whether it's wind, whether it's all the bans on gas powered cars,

00:35:49.600 the bans we're seeing on coal and fracking and all the bans on drilling in the Western nations.

00:35:55.600 That's having a huge impact on the price of fossil fuels, on the just the entire economies of these Western nations.

00:36:04.600 And we're seeing Europe now, once again, terrified of winter, the United States terrified of winter and the electricity bills and the blackouts and all the shortages that we could face because of these mandates.

00:36:15.600 So that is what's going on. So the U.N. is going to have this whole summit in the middle of all this, plus all the international Ukraine and Israel and war against terror.

00:36:24.600 And it's going to be just a big mess. There's no one at the U.N. could possibly be happy going into this summit.

00:36:31.600 And of course, that's why King Charles is going to be there. They're bringing in Pope Francis.

00:36:35.600 They're going to try to do all kinds of slights of hand. 0.99

00:36:37.600 Really? I didn't know. King Charles and Pope Francis.

00:36:40.600 You know what? Those are certainly big names. You don't get much bigger than that.

00:36:44.600 But in a way, it's sort of pitiful that they need to gin up interest by bringing in what I might call celebrities.

00:36:50.600 Very, very, very interesting. You know, and it's funny because Justin Trudeau, you know, he was deep into the climate stuff.

00:36:57.600 And, you know, when he was the first climate summit after he became prime minister was in Paris.

00:37:05.600 And so Canada had, if I'm not mistaken, the largest delegation in the world.

00:37:09.600 I mean, who wouldn't want to go to Paris?

00:37:11.600 To go from that, from the wunderkind of global warming to the guy who's, you know, desperate to shore himself up in the polls.

00:37:20.600 And I'm not sure how closely you've been following Canada.

00:37:23.600 But Trudeau has suspended his carbon tax plans in Atlantic Canada, which is traditionally his labor, his liberal voter base.

00:37:31.600 And now the rest of the country is saying, well, if you're going to cancel for them, you got to cancel for us.

00:37:35.600 He's got a bit of a constitutional uprising on his hands.

00:37:38.600 I mean, and even his former environment minister, the one who blackballed us, the one who went to Marrakesh in Paris.

00:37:46.600 She's on Twitter chirping about it.

00:37:48.600 Oh, you know, why is Canada giving?

00:37:50.600 It's sort of funny how Justin Trudeau showed that at the end of the day, he absolutely will put anything in his own survival ahead of his dearest plans for the carbon tax.

00:38:02.600 It's sort of beautiful to see.

00:38:04.600 Last point to you.

00:38:05.600 Go ahead.

00:38:06.600 Well, to your point about Justin Trudeau, when reality hits, it's one thing to make commitments and talk a big game.

00:38:13.600 And I use the example, the analogy of defund the police.

00:38:16.600 Remember, George Floyd, it was June of 2020.

00:38:19.600 We had every major liberal city and even major liberal Democrat politicians in the United States praising the idea it's time to defund the police.

00:38:28.600 We need community policing.

00:38:30.600 They started cutting back budgets.

00:38:32.600 What happened?

00:38:33.600 We saw in real time immediately what a disaster.

00:38:35.600 So within a year later, Joe Biden's given a State of the Union.

00:38:38.600 It's time to refund the police.

00:38:40.600 And you have the mayor of San Francisco now at least rhetorically talking about refunding.

00:38:44.600 It's been a disaster.

00:38:45.600 They got to see it in real time.

00:38:47.600 That's basically green energy agenda, the climate agenda.

00:38:50.600 But it takes decades because, like I like to say, only half jokily, it's easier to transition your gender than it is your energy of the type of central planning they're talking about.

00:38:59.600 It's not going to happen.

00:39:00.600 It's not going to happen.

00:39:01.600 This is true energy dysphoria we're suffering from.

00:39:04.600 And they're getting this moment of clarity now.

00:39:06.600 And it's all coming with supply chain.

00:39:09.600 And then, of course, you have inflation and the modern monetary theory printing all the excess money, the debt.

00:39:15.600 Unbelievable.

00:39:16.600 And now the multiple wars.

00:39:17.600 We just had a congressional report, by the way, saying the U.S. has to prepare for simultaneous war with Russia and China.

00:39:24.600 And then, of course, that's right before the Middle East happened. 0.92

00:39:27.600 So we have three wars here in the United States we're going to fight.

00:39:30.600 You think people are going to be thinking about the climate agenda during any of this?

00:39:33.600 No, they're going to be thinking about how to repeal it.

00:39:35.600 And that's what we got to get Republicans here in the United States on board with that because we can do it.

00:39:41.600 And the major candidates, of course, are Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump here in the U.S. are all for that.

00:39:46.600 So, well, these are certainly momentous days.

00:39:49.600 Good luck in Dubai.

00:39:50.600 You're going to have a wonderful time.

00:39:51.600 I wish we could send our reporters not for a tourist trip, of course, but to do the kind of citizen journalism that we like to do.

00:40:00.600 Alas, we'll have to wait until the U.N. returns to a place with a free press.

00:40:05.600 Mark, safe journeys.

00:40:07.600 We look forward to your reports from Dubai, and I'm glad that you're on the inside.

00:40:11.600 Take care, my friend.

00:40:12.600 All right.

00:40:13.600 Thank you, Ezra.

00:40:14.600 I appreciate it.

00:40:15.600 There you have it.

00:40:16.600 Mark Morano, he's the boss of ClimateDepot.com, and he's attending the Global Warming Conference as an NGO.

00:40:22.600 We, however, are banned as journalists.

00:40:30.600 Hey, welcome back.

00:40:37.600 Your letters to me.

00:40:38.600 Wayne Curry says, glad you're covering these men.

00:40:41.600 However, for Rebel viewers to crowdfund serious criminal code violations seems like a bridge too far, at least for the time being.

00:40:47.600 Keep up the great work.

00:40:48.600 You know, I think so, too.

00:40:50.600 There are charities you can support for general criminal defense.

00:40:55.600 One's called the Elizabeth Fry Society.

00:40:57.600 I don't know if you've ever heard of them.

00:40:59.600 And there's a John Howard Society.

00:41:02.600 These are groups that basically fund criminal defense for people who can't afford them.

00:41:06.600 And, of course, every government in Canada also has a legal aid program.

00:41:10.600 I am somewhat skeptical about the charges against these men because what I heard yesterday in Lethbridge, and regrettably I can't tell you the evidence because it's subject to a publication ban, there was some evidence put by the prosecutor before the judge that I know firsthand is junk.

00:41:28.600 It's political junk.

00:41:29.600 Now, there's some other serious evidence there.

00:41:31.600 But that is not what Rebel News raised the funds for.

00:41:34.600 Maybe you remember I said, help with the civil disobedience.

00:41:38.600 Help with the mischief charges and the obstruction.

00:41:41.600 Help with the non-violent, peaceful, Gandhi-style resistance.

00:41:46.600 And for people who are charged with the very serious crime of conspiracy to commit murder, I'm sympathetic to their families, and I hope they're acquitted, by the way.

00:41:55.600 I hope they didn't do it.

00:41:57.600 But we're not going to take money raised by Rebel News viewers for civil liberties to spend on that.

00:42:01.600 And perhaps I'm sounding too defensive on that.

00:42:03.600 But whenever I go to that town, I'm asked that question.

00:42:05.600 And I know it's because they are, you know, the families are in pain.

00:42:11.600 Their sons have been in jail for 600 plus days.

00:42:14.600 I'll tell you what we will do.

00:42:16.600 We will continue to report on the story.

00:42:18.600 That's for sure.

00:42:19.600 Marlene Moran says, the boys are not in jail.

00:42:22.600 They are in remand and do not have the same rights given to those being held in jail.

00:42:26.600 These four men appear to be political prisoners.

00:42:28.600 Thank you for that clarification.

00:42:30.600 And by what you mean is that there's different kinds of jail and prison.

00:42:35.600 And that goes to how comfortable they are, how much sociability you have with other prisoners, what kind of visitation rights, et cetera, et cetera.

00:42:43.600 I'm not an expert in Canadian prisons, but I know it has been an issue that these men are being held in strenuous situations.

00:42:52.600 And for 600 days, it's absurd.

00:42:54.600 I'm not an expert in those details.

00:42:56.600 And I am sympathetic.

00:42:58.600 I know from when our old alumnus, Tommy Robinson, was put in jail, how terrible conditions can be, especially if they put you in solitary confinement in the name of COVID isolation.

00:43:11.600 That's very abusive.

00:43:13.600 So I am sympathetic to the way these men are being treated.

00:43:15.600 And that's what yesterday's hearing was about, is that one of the men, Chris Carbert, wanted to have a bail variation hearing.

00:43:21.600 And yesterday he won the right to have that hearing, which I understand is coming up in about a month or so.

00:43:29.600 Billy Dee Williams writes in on banning the Chinese app called WeChat.

00:43:33.600 Authoritarian dictator bans app from authoritarian dictators country, right?

00:43:37.600 What's this really about?

00:43:38.600 Well, you know, it's a tricky one.

00:43:41.600 I mean, I perhaps I should not be on TikTok and I did delete it for a while, but it was a window into the world that I couldn't find elsewhere.

00:43:49.600 I'm the same person on my phone.

00:43:52.600 And both apps are spying on me, both Twitter and TikTok and Facebook.

00:43:56.600 They're all spying on me.

00:43:57.600 They all listen to me.

00:43:58.600 They all watch what I type.

00:44:00.600 So to me, it's a fascinating study.

00:44:02.600 Me being me, I'm the same me, what Twitter does in response to that and what TikTok does in response to that.

00:44:09.600 What TikTok serves up to me, I would never see anywhere else.

00:44:13.600 And I'm a 51 year old man who's interested in politics and I'm a conservative curmudgeon.

00:44:18.600 But I look at what is being pumped into the minds of teenagers, because that's really the market for TikTok.

00:44:23.600 And that is one of my answers for how did the youngest generation become so woke, so hard left wing, so culturally Marxist and so pro Hamas? 0.63

00:44:33.600 Well, the answer is for the first time in history, the enemy now has a pipeline directly to the eyes and ears of our own people, including our own kids.

00:44:41.600 That's a terrifying thing.

00:44:43.600 And I don't know if the libertarian answer of free speech works when it's a hostile enemy company.

00:44:48.600 Of course, the company that owns TikTok is called ByteDance.

00:44:52.600 It is a Chinese company and it's subject to Chinese law and it is coming for your kids. 1.00

00:44:58.600 That's our show for today.

00:45:01.600 Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.

00:45:08.600 Thank you.
