00:01:00.060 Listen, all you New Yorkers.
00:01:02.400 You mean taxi?
00:01:04.000 Okay, then you want to look around.
00:01:05.320 This is the 77 WABC Minicast.
00:01:11.140 But again, it's still Easter night, and I'm really interested in hearing what you have to say about not only the Iran War and not only about our economy, but also some of your religious thoughts right now.
00:01:21.100 And because of that, I want to hear from Harriet in Brooklyn, who definitely has an apocalyptic end of days kind of thought in her mind right now.
00:01:30.180 Harriet, tell us what you what's on your mind.
00:01:33.120 Oh, OK. Thank you. You're you're great.
00:01:35.280 I want to thank Mr. Casanatidis for putting you on staff because you're the best.
00:01:39.680 Jake, I see Mandani, and when he said globalize the Intifada, that spelled it all.
00:01:53.020 I sent Mr. Casamantidis a copy of Icon of Evil, which was a classic picture in 1941 of Hitler and Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem.
00:02:05.100 life and you've got to get a hold of that if you could ask them and post it online so the people
00:02:10.360 understand i wrote a whole article about that harriet with that picture as the um as the
00:02:15.500 illustration because i believe that hamas is hitler i don't know you i don't know if you're
00:02:19.960 a fan of harry potter but hamas is hitler's last horcrux the last piece of hitler's soul
00:02:25.040 still existing in the world not because they liked him but because the muslim brotherhood 0.87
00:02:30.120 which was the forerunner of Hamas and all these Islamist groups, was funded and guided by the Nazis. 0.95
00:02:36.540 Literally, not just by spirit, not spiritually, but literally funded. 0.68
00:02:41.580 They gave them pamphlets.
00:02:43.800 They gave them money.
00:02:44.700 They gave them strategic advice.
00:02:46.640 So people need to understand that when we say words like Islamo-Nazis, it's not an insult.
00:02:51.520 It's a fact.
00:02:52.340 No.
00:02:53.240 True. 0.90
00:02:53.720 And when Mandani said, globalize the Intifada, you could tell that this man is Muslim Brotherhood. 0.84
00:03:00.880 Muslims are nice people, but Muslim Brotherhood is fanatical Islam, and it follows the line of Haj Amin al-Husseini, who wanted to take down Western civilization and Jews. 0.83
00:03:13.860 First, he hated Churchill, he hated FDR. 0.98
00:03:17.280 They're saying in the mosques now, first the Saturday people, then the Sunday people. 0.99
00:03:22.020 And this, there's no, you tell Fernando that you can't kiss this guy's ass, Mondani, because it's as though you're dealing with Hitler, Chamberlain and Hitler. 0.99
00:03:35.140 You've got to understand that you're dealing with the devil here. 0.98
00:03:38.380 Yeah, you know, Harriet, I appreciate your call, and thank you for calling in, and thank you for your kind words off the top.
00:03:43.120 I promise, folks, these are not my relatives or anyone I'm paying off to say nice things about me.
00:03:46.660 Thank you for that.
00:03:47.860 I wish I had more relatives in New York.
00:03:49.740 I kind of don't have too many.
00:03:52.020 Let me say something about this, because I want to make this very, very clear.
00:03:55.760 Because, again, I am someone who is not only a student of history, but someone, I think, who tries his best to appreciate history and the lessons of history.
00:04:04.180 I want to make this distinction very clearly. 0.99
00:04:06.280 This is radical Islam that we're talking about, Islamism. 1.00
00:04:08.900 And, yes, it has overtaken way too much of the Islamic world overall. 0.99
00:04:13.760 But if you know your history well, you also understand, let's just take it from the standpoint of my people, the Jewish people.
00:04:20.100 And this is something that may shock you.
00:04:22.020 for hundreds of years, it was better to be a Jew in the Muslim world than the Christian world. 0.78
00:04:28.340 It's just a fact. 0.94
00:04:29.980 Yes, Jews were still second- and third-class citizens under Muslims.
00:04:33.140 Yes, there was still violence against them every once in a while. 1.00
00:04:35.780 But for the most part, it was better for them. 0.77
00:04:38.960 The person who definitively changed that trajectory was Napoleon. 0.89
00:04:44.820 There had been some parts of Europe that had already started to liberate the Jews
00:04:48.160 and give them wonderful rights and wonderful opportunities,
00:04:50.660 But it wasn't until Napoleon conquered damn near all of Europe and gave Jews citizenship and power wherever he went that that fully changed, that that equation changed. 0.64
00:05:01.500 Plus, there was a technological and quality of life factor in Europe that far exceeded the Middle East by that time, the Muslim world in general. 0.95
00:05:08.520 And so it was better to be any human being in the Christian world at that point. 0.91
00:05:12.540 So why do I bring this up?
00:05:14.020 Because I do believe for all the jokes that say there'll never be peace in the Middle East and the Jews and the Muslims will never get along,
00:05:19.740 baloney you don't know your history we did have a relatively decent history for some periods of
00:05:25.200 time and when i meet people from the uae and bahrain who have suddenly become very friendly
00:05:31.100 to israel and to jews in general i tell them this isn't a new thing in history this is a reset
00:05:37.000 let's reset where we were before radical islam became a thing and i think that we have a chance
00:05:43.400 i'm incredibly encouraged especially by muslims who are not from the arab world places like
00:05:49.320 Indonesia, places like parts of South America, places like China, the Uyghurs. These are Muslim
00:05:57.360 groups that do understand pluralism. It's not perfect. We're not singing kumbaya. I get it. 0.87
00:06:05.200 Our beef is with radical Islam, and it is sadly a big part of Islam now because it's grown 1.00
00:06:12.340 exponentially since the 1890s when it started. Iran has made it the forefront of a lot of the 1.00
00:06:18.160 Islamic world, and it's a terrible shame, mostly for Muslims. For all the horrible things they've 1.00
00:06:23.840 done to Christians and Jews, it's really the Muslims who have suffered. Who's died the most? 1.00
00:06:28.240 Muslims kill more Muslims than any Christian or Jew who's ever killed any of them in a given year. 1.00
00:06:33.640 In one year, more Muslims are going to kill more Muslims than Jews and Christians combined have 1.00
00:06:37.520 killed them from the beginning of time. And that's just a fact. That's just the mathematics. 1.00
00:06:41.680 This has been a tragedy for the Muslim people more than anyone else.
00:06:44.460 but i want to make that distinction because honestly there is hope if i didn't think there
00:06:50.380 was any hope for jews and and muslims to live together and christians and muslims to live
00:06:55.740 together in peace i wouldn't be doing radio i'd be building a bomb shelter okay i do believe that 0.77
00:07:01.880 there's a chance here but we've got to push back and defeating the iranian regime is a major
00:07:06.800 linchpin of this it's a major linchpin of this they are the leading islamic radical nation in 0.69
00:07:14.180 the world, Islamist radical nation in the world. And they have been for almost 50 years. That regime
00:07:20.180 needs to fall. It needs to fall hard for us to have this chance of peace in the world between
00:07:26.660 the major religions of the world. I fully believe that. And it's based on my education. It's based 1.00
00:07:32.800 on my observing of what's been going on in the world. And it's also based on my basic human
00:07:39.040 decency. I'm not going to demonize an entire people. I'm just not going to do that. But I
00:07:46.120 will demonize an ideology that's trying to kill almost everyone else who isn't part of their
00:07:51.160 ideology. That I am demonizing. During the Nazi Germany, had I been alive then and after that,
00:07:58.700 I don't want all the German people to die, although a lot of them were tremendously 0.84
00:08:02.340 complicit in nazism i want everyone guilty to face the ultimate penalty but in general no let's give 1.00
00:08:10.120 it a chance and that turned out to be a good decision right so let's let's remember that and
00:08:15.760 i appreciate harriet for reminding us of the specific names of some of the people who have
00:08:20.660 really been responsible for that it's really really important a safer ontario means more
00:08:26.160 police and prosecutors making sure my car doesn't get stolen it means building new jails to keep
00:08:31.520 criminals behind bars. And it
00:08:33.560 means there's no need to worry when I play
00:08:35.620 at the park. We're making every
00:08:37.600 corner of Ontario safer to make
