Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to the culture war.
00:01:09.620
Is there a genocide currently going on in the Gaza Strip?
00:01:13.120
And we have two of the best Shabbos goys in the game to debate this right now.
00:01:18.820
But before we figure all that out, we have a lot to discuss today.
00:01:26.140
So I just encourage everybody to watch us on Rumble as well.
00:01:28.940
Because in case, for some odd reason, these two heathens, you know, get crazy and say something that is YouTube unfriendly,
00:01:39.800
And before we get started, guys, you know who I am.
00:01:44.180
I got our co-host Tate Brown today filling in for Tim.
00:01:51.620
We have a guy that has been shut down on TikTok.
00:01:57.760
And, you know, his content is actually, you know, I don't even think it's that edgy, to be honest.
00:02:02.640
So with all that being said, I want to introduce Rathbone, legendary, anti-Israel.
00:02:17.740
I'm a political satirist, musician, teacher, and now I'm a content creator.
00:02:37.300
And then we also have, he's a legend in himself, in the making, a young legend.
00:02:46.820
With all that being said, we must introduce the one, the only Misfit Patriot.
00:02:54.880
Like, I guess I could, you could call me a contractor that uses the internet to make fun
00:03:14.980
So tell us, Tate, a little bit about yourself and what we've got going on.
00:03:19.460
I've been filling in for Tim on the morning show for now.
00:03:25.220
But yeah, I'm here to help Alex wrangle these two cats today.
00:03:29.520
Okay, so I think what we're going to do is we're going to start and give you guys like
00:03:32.840
three to five minutes, however much time you guys need, to kind of give an opening statement.
00:03:36.980
And since you are pro-Israel and right now, let's be honest, a propaganda war is not going
00:03:41.600
in Israel's favor, we're going to give the floor to Misfit Patriot to save Benjamin Netanyahu
00:03:47.460
and this propaganda campaign that they're so desperately failing at.
00:03:53.660
Yeah, it's actually, it's no shock that Israel's losing the propaganda war.
00:03:57.560
As I said before, you know, they're outnumbered 151 as far as, let's say, Muslim nations and
00:04:04.460
the people that support them versus Jews and the people that support Israel.
00:04:09.380
So when people make the argument that because they're losing, let's say, support online or
00:04:16.120
support, you know, in polling, it's really like, that's kind of like, yeah, no shit.
00:04:25.880
I think that you sort of ignore that and just do what you need to do.
00:04:30.980
And everyone says that I'm like a huge staunch supporter of Israel when I'm not.
00:04:35.660
I'm perfectly fine with them doing whatever they need to do to protect their nation.
00:04:43.220
Obviously, I think New Zealand has a right to exist.
00:04:47.180
As far as nation states go, if my country was attacked, let's say Mexico came in and,
00:04:53.480
you know, raped and murdered like 1,200 people and beheaded a bunch of people and filmed it
00:04:58.260
and put it on Telegram and we didn't go and freaking, you know, destroy that nation, I
00:05:05.280
So the argument that Israel should not be doing what they're doing, I would argue, is silly
00:05:16.360
I mean, World War II and a bunch of different things that we could point to as to why they
00:05:23.640
But as far as this debate goes, I don't know much about my opponent.
00:05:29.500
He aligns ideologically, but he is anti-Israel.
00:05:38.980
I'm very pro, you know, anti-Islamic radical terrorism.
00:05:45.260
So I would take my arguments to him from three points, right?
00:05:50.000
Are you making a political, moral, or theological argument?
00:05:52.820
If you're making a moral argument, my question would be, why don't you make the same argument
00:05:57.480
about other conflicts, which I don't know if he does?
00:06:01.540
If you're making a political argument, I'd ask you to make your case without making an
00:06:04.160
argument for morality, because politics and morality kind of don't align.
00:06:07.920
And if you're making a theological argument, I'll ask you to make your argument without
00:06:11.040
arguing politically, because we're going to be talking about theological.
00:06:13.700
I think what people do is they conflate all of these issues and try to make this soup
00:06:18.440
of theological, moral, political, when there's conflicting narratives.
00:06:22.840
And that's my biggest gripe with the people that argue against Israel.
00:06:29.000
Or are you arguing against a nation state with a government that has 120 people in it?
00:06:33.900
Because if you're making those arguments, I can pick them apart pretty easily.
00:06:44.120
Well, it's not really about what I or you believe or think.
00:06:49.760
International institutions are arrayed against Israel at this point.
00:06:54.100
They are condemning Israel, every relevant authority that pertains to diplomacy, international
00:07:02.620
laws, humanitarian laws, condemn Israel for the illegal occupation.
00:07:07.620
For me, it's the principal contradiction between an occupied people and an occupying army and
00:07:15.740
That is the legal distinction that's being made.
00:07:18.800
And I am simply transmitting those facts, sharing that information with you, because it's not
00:07:27.980
It's about what international institutions believe.
00:07:30.620
And, you know, we can go into the details, you know, further, but at this point, they've
00:07:44.660
They've lost, and I'm part of that overwhelming majority of the public opinion that believes
00:07:49.280
that Israel is an apartheid ethnostate committing a mass atrocity.
00:07:55.960
And I think the evidence of that is very clear.
00:07:58.820
So, you know, I'm happy to go into it further, but I disagree with basically everything you
00:08:13.900
Like you said, you can't be Israel neutral and then pro-Zionist.
00:08:20.660
Well, you can't, because Israel is pro-Zionist.
00:08:23.980
And if you are just saying, well, I'm just going to stay neutral, you are preserving the
00:08:30.060
You're preserving the inherent violence of this settler colony that is ethnically cleansing
00:08:36.520
a land that is an indigenous majority of Palestinians, Muslims, however you want to classify them.
00:08:45.600
And Israel is trying to establish a Jewish demographic majority in a land that is not demographically
00:08:55.680
They have to ethnically cleanse and massacre every single non-Jew in order to establish first-rate
00:09:17.340
And we should reject it and rebuke it and detest it outright.
00:09:23.280
Tate, what do you want to say on this before we go into our first kind of topic?
00:09:26.940
Yeah, I mean, well, I mean, fundamentally, my position is America first, not America only.
00:09:31.560
I mean, obviously, American foreign policies would be realistic.
00:09:37.100
I mean, there is, yeah, there is a moral concern, obviously, with Israel's actions in the region,
00:09:45.040
But then there also is, I mean, a case to be made for a Jewish state, right?
00:09:50.180
I mean, after the circumstances of the 20th century.
00:09:52.860
So, yeah, I mean, I understand the case both ways.
00:09:56.680
But I do agree that I don't think people's opinion is turning on Israel purely because
00:10:02.760
I do think their actions in the region are a bit concerning.
00:10:05.480
And specifically, the United States, I think, to some degree, is in violation of our America
00:10:16.040
And, you know, I want to go back to a day and age when Jews made movies and not used bombs
00:10:23.820
You know, like, Jewish people are obviously very talented.
00:10:28.800
But when they tell me that they accidentally bombed a church or that they accidentally bombed
00:10:33.580
a hospital on live TV, I just think that they're too smart and too talented to make
00:10:38.380
So for me, why I'm starting to, I guess, get not radicalized against Israel.
00:10:46.400
But I'm just getting very frustrated because every single thing that we see on TV or on the
00:10:53.140
So I'm happy that we're having this conversation.
00:10:54.880
So the first thing that I want to talk about, and you brought it up, Rathbun, is that, and
00:11:02.400
Benjamin Netanyahu is considered by the UN to be a war criminal.

00:12:02.200
BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario.
00:12:06.020
Why does the UN have a different opinion of him than Donald Trump?
00:12:09.940
And how guilty is he if they think he's a war criminal and obviously America doesn't?
00:12:14.800
Well, the UN had, what, 12 of their employees that were caught enacting the terrorist event of October 7th.
00:12:23.400
So I don't think the UN is the best source for morality.
00:12:27.840
Like, you know, like condemnation of other people for doing things.
00:12:30.000
The UN is, it's an organization that I would say has an agenda that is totally anti-American.
00:12:41.980
So I don't take anything that they say seriously.
00:12:45.920
My brother in Christ, the UN was created by the United States.
00:12:51.500
It's like, it doesn't matter if it was created.
00:12:55.860
Frankenstein was created, but he tried to kill everybody.
00:12:58.740
Like, it's a silly argument to say it was created by the United States.
00:13:07.800
It's not about it being anti-American or pro-American.
00:13:10.780
It's just that this is the international institution set up by the world superpower post-World War II.
00:13:16.080
The United States, the global hegemon, created the UN to administer international diplomacy,
00:13:34.620
They were supposed to prevent genocides, but their own employees were trying to commit one on October 7th.
00:13:40.340
I still, I feel like you're going to make a baseless claim like that.
00:13:56.080
There are no UN workers in Gaza, in Palestine, because Israel has completely destroyed the infrastructure.
00:14:04.520
What's about to pop up on the screen is probably going to shock you if you've never heard this before,
00:14:12.700
The point is, is because you're going to pearl clutch about October 7th as a terrorist attack.
00:14:19.720
When we know, when we know that Israel is a terrorist state and that the original act of aggression goes back to the occupation.
00:14:31.080
And that's why in my opening statement, I said the principal contradiction here is occupied people versus an occupying force.
00:14:40.740
Because you don't understand international laws.
00:14:50.880
The fact that Israel has socially engineered it to be a rump state, basically, without an administrating force or an administrating body is not a point in your favor, okay?
00:15:10.820
What is the, where are there any buildings in Palestine?
00:15:14.020
Where are there any, where is there any education?
00:15:26.080
If they have a currency, though, it could still be a genocide.
00:15:28.660
I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, like, it's a complete obfuscation of the point.
00:15:36.520
Name one school that's for standing in Palestine.
00:15:37.260
This argument is whether or not Palestine is a country.
00:15:47.680
They are a country that has been recognized by the international community as having being
00:16:06.920
Does America, the number one superpower in the world, recognize Palestine as a country?
00:16:14.180
Okay, so you can say that some person recognizes it, and you can say that some person...
00:16:21.580
All right, hold on, no, no, no, no, no, listen.
00:16:22.280
Listen, 191 countries recognize that Palestine is a country.
00:16:38.220
I know this is going to happen a little bit, but let's try to get our points out.
00:16:43.740
If Palestine is a country, right, what makes them a country?
00:16:50.360
It's what the ICJ advisory ruling opinion established in 2004, okay?
00:16:55.620
In 2004, the ICJ established that the Palestinian people do, in fact, exist.
00:17:00.720
The second thing that they said was that the territorial unit belonging to Palestine is the
00:17:12.680
No, the territorial unit that are those three territories, that makes up the sovereign country
00:17:22.120
All three of those territories are occupied by Israel under international law going back
00:17:31.620
UN Resolution 242, which gets voted on every year, and it is vetoed by the only world superpower.
00:17:39.920
United States and Israel both veto the UN Resolution 242, which is unanimously agreed upon by the world
00:17:49.780
Real quick, real quick, this argument, though, is kind of frustrating because, like, there's
00:17:53.580
even small tribes off of islands of Indonesia, and they don't have a currency, they don't
00:17:57.460
have anything, and Australia, Indonesia, the main countries that they're connected to will
00:18:04.380
What I'm saying is they're actually not a part of their government, but I'm saying just
00:18:08.280
because they don't have a government doesn't mean that they don't have a right to exist.
00:18:15.740
But if you say, I live in Texas, I am a Texan, right?
00:18:20.400
I'm not in the country of Texas, I am in the state of Texas.
00:18:33.420
They are Egyptian and Jordanian originated people that would, one would argue, are the
00:18:41.920
So, if you look at even the name, Palestine, where did it come from?
00:18:46.920
The British named it Mandatory Palestine, obtained from the League of Nations in 1920
00:18:53.300
And they got that name from a territory in the Ottoman Empire, right?
00:18:57.780
The Philistines were a group of people who lived on the south coast of Canaan during the
00:19:01.140
They were an immigrant group from the Aegean civilization in Greece during the Bronze Age.
00:19:09.620
Philistine, Palestine, it was named that as an insult to the Jewish people because when
00:19:13.960
the nation state of Israel was created in 1948, they agreed on a territory.
00:19:25.640
Well, that kind of makes Palestine more badass, right?
00:19:29.320
I think David's more badass because he killed him with a fucking rock.
00:19:31.520
He did, but I'm just saying if you're a big giant too, that's cool.
00:19:34.020
I mean, you know, there's something kind of cool about Goliath.
00:19:35.620
My point is, my point is, it's not a country just because some people, some countries say
00:19:41.800
You have to go through actual steps and you have to become an actual country and they're
00:19:51.620
They're not a country because the world's superpower.
00:19:55.180
Okay, but even if we agree that they're not a country, then we should...
00:19:57.220
Don't take my words out of my mouth, out of context.
00:20:00.100
I understand you're in your feelings, but international...
00:20:03.920
I'm just saying, regardless if they're a country or not, that doesn't negate the fact
00:20:14.540
I'm just saying, regardless of whether they have a currency or not...
00:20:20.200
A genocide is the systematic, intentional killing of a people group of ethnicity, religion,
00:20:31.960
Because if you throw leaflets down and tell people, get the fuck out of there, if you
00:20:36.040
drop more bombs than you kill civilians, then that's not a genocide.
00:20:39.460
If you're vaccinating the same people that you're trying to genocide, if you have people
00:20:43.100
that you're trying to genocide in your government, working, living in your fucking country,
00:20:49.060
You can't call it a genocide when they're doing such a bad job at it.
00:20:55.460
That's really a silly argument to make for the simple fact that you can look at the
00:21:04.160
Gaza Strip right now and 90 to 95 percent of it is reduced to rubble.
00:21:08.700
The IDF has internally reported that at least 83 percent of the people that are killed in
00:21:17.940
This has been admitted by Israeli officials who have made public statements that have
00:21:27.780
acknowledged that, yes, they are committed to wholesale destruction of the Gaza Strip.
00:21:34.560
And indeed, when you look at the Gaza Strip, you can see the destruction of an entire civilization.
00:21:39.760
They have been removed from their place of origin, from their homes, transferred to the southern
00:21:52.720
They are being systematically targeted because as they're being starved, they're being lured
00:21:57.740
into these bait food traps where they're shot down.
00:22:01.660
And even, by God, if they are given flour, they'll have drugs in it.
00:22:09.420
You know, they'll be laced with poison by the time that they get it.
00:22:14.720
Your argument that it looks like a wasteland, right?
00:22:17.920
You can pull up a picture right now of what Japan looked like after...
00:22:31.600
Japan was starting wars with the United States.
00:22:34.080
Like, they had a military, they had an army, they had a navy.
00:22:37.760
Palestine has been systematically de-institutionalized, de-developed by Israel for decades now.
00:22:47.500
Hold on, so you said that the reason Japan looks like Gaza is because Japan started a war
00:22:51.260
with the United States, and that's why it looks like Gaza.
00:22:52.900
No, I'm not defending your Hiroshima bombing that you're just saying, oh, yeah.
00:23:01.980
Was Hiroshima a genocide or was it a necessary military action to prevent Japan from...
00:23:09.940
No, it was wanton wholesale destruction of entire cities.
00:23:19.420
Was Operation Gomorrah a genocide when the U.S. and the Royal Air Force bombed Hamburg, Germany,
00:23:27.020
specifically targeting civilian areas in order to break the Nazi regime, 9,000 tons of bombs
00:23:36.920
It demoralized the Germans because when you were...
00:23:42.360
When you are in a war, the way you solve a war is you make it untenable for the other
00:23:48.580
If the thing that those people care about is their infrastructure, their buildings, their
00:23:54.080
civilian population, whatever, that's what happens.
00:23:56.580
Is there a genocide going on in Ukraine, in Russia?
00:24:00.220
Or is that two fucking people fighting because one of them started a fucking war?
00:24:05.600
And this is what you fucking people don't understand.
00:24:09.140
You keep on trying to hammer it into people's heads.
00:24:10.820
It's not a fucking genocide just because you say it is.
00:24:17.940
It's a genocide because that is what international institutions have concluded.
00:24:23.720
...people that are devoted to studying this and investigating this.
00:24:30.400
Well, appeal to authority is usually the fucking argument.
00:24:33.120
And it's actually happening because we have iPhones now.
00:24:36.380
Israel is not going to survive the age of the internet and the iPhones, okay?
00:24:41.120
Just like Jeffrey Epstein wasn't able to survive the age of the internet.
00:24:43.400
I think he does have a good point, though, that the internet is hurting their cause right
00:24:47.100
now because even though your argument is probably going to be, well, Palestine is running
00:24:53.480
And for me, that is so dumb to think that people in caves or, you know, literally
00:24:58.320
in tunnels are running some strategic marketing campaign that is making Israel look bad.
00:25:14.680
I am of the opinion these people should get a free house somewhere, maybe in Jordan or Egypt.
00:25:19.040
But Jordan and Egypt don't really want to take the Palestinians.
00:25:24.960
I'm saying, how do we, because we are going to keep arguing this, how do we solve this?
00:25:28.160
Because you and I are both not naive enough to think that Israel's ever going to stop.
00:25:33.240
I think you would argue that now, after October 7th, it's only going to get more intense.
00:25:39.140
So I guess, like, what do you think the solution is?
00:25:41.440
I think the solution is just what's going to happen, which is that Israel is suffering a cultural death right now.
00:25:50.540
There's no way that's tenable in the long term.
00:25:53.060
And the cultural death precedes the economic death.
00:25:56.060
Eventually, there just won't be as much immigration to Israel.
00:26:01.440
There's a whole side of this other story that doesn't get reported because Israel...
00:26:04.380
When Tarantino just left, he was living there and just left because of all this stuff.
00:26:08.380
Yeah, no, he just left him and his wife just moved to London.
00:26:10.000
People don't want to do business getting bombed, you know?
00:26:13.120
And when you start wars with seven other countries, when you are belligerent and aggressive against everyone else in the region,
00:26:22.280
people tend not to want to do business with you.
00:26:24.540
You know, it's the same thing that happened in Saudi Arabia with Yemen.
00:26:32.120
Yemen was actually retaliating against Saudi Arabia.
00:26:34.620
Saudi Arabia wants to be a global hub for capitalism.
00:26:38.380
Wants to be a good trading partner for Western European countries and the United States.

And they can't do that when they're getting bombed.
00:27:46.540
And nobody wants to do, you know, nobody wants to do business with people that are, you know,
00:27:53.940
Well, that's why it's a really, really good plan for Donald Trump to take over the Gaza Strip
00:27:59.980
and turn it into some type of Abrahamic Accord-related hub of trade and currency.
00:28:15.620
Can you imagine if the Ayatollah Khomeini said anything about, like, I don't know, Washington,
00:28:19.600
Yeah, we should just pave over Washington, D.C.
00:28:24.040
Because we don't, they don't posture towards us in the Western Hemisphere the way that we
00:28:32.040
Imagine if, imagine if, I spoke with the opposition leader, opposition leader to the King of
00:28:38.240
Jordan, and he was talking about how they'd be, they'd love to welcome in more Palestinians.
00:28:43.320
Egypt doesn't want them because a lot of Palestinians are supporters of Hamas, right?
00:28:49.260
If you are Hamas or a supporter of Hamas, sorry, you have lost your right to be there.
00:28:56.080
Don't lose your right to live, if you're Hamas-
00:28:57.080
Don't lose your right to- I mean, you, I, I would argue that, if you, I would argue
00:29:07.900
But if you're partaking, if you are, if you are a supporter of Hamas-
00:29:12.000
If you are saying that I, I agree with Hamas and I would like Hamas to, to continue what
00:29:18.140
they're doing, I, I would argue, no, you don't have a right to live.
00:29:24.040
I mean, imagine if, imagine if our government did what Hamas did.
00:29:28.000
Imagine if the American military went into Mexico, cut people's heads off, rigged women,
00:29:36.700
America fought a war in the Middle East that killed millions of Muslims.
00:29:40.100
And at the end of the day, they told us that this was a war on terror and they had to
00:29:44.500
But we all saw that the Taliban is still in power in Afghanistan, right?
00:29:48.780
I'm just saying there was a time when everybody had the same sentiment as you, that every
00:29:54.380
And now we know that our country, that's not necessarily true.
00:29:58.960
To quote my favorite retarded, retarded comedian, Dave Smith, that's a non-argument,
00:30:07.120
It's, it, the war in Iraq was a huge mistake and it was a political war.
00:30:10.760
It was a, it was an operation through George Bush's narcissism that did that.
00:30:20.280
It's not a war between two, um, I would say dictators who are fighting over land.
00:30:26.220
These people, the Palestinian, not the Palestinians, all of them, but any supporter of Hamas wants
00:30:34.520
Every single Jew, every single Israeli, every single Zionist.
00:30:37.420
And when they're done, they want to come to America and do the same thing.
00:30:40.640
It is a radicalized ideology that hates everything about the West, hates everything about Christianity,
00:30:47.920
They want to impose Sharia law all over the world and they're doing a damn good job of
00:30:52.360
Because if you look at the UK, you look at the rape statistics in Germany, you look
00:30:55.400
at everything going on in Europe right now, it's becoming a fucking problem.
00:30:59.660
So what I would, what I would say Israel has not only the right, but the duty to do is to
00:31:05.920
make sure there is not a single Hamas member or a single Hamas supporter left in Israel,
00:31:13.340
left in Gaza, left in the West Bank, left in anywhere fucking near them.
00:31:18.480
Because if it, if they are, they're just going to do this again.
00:31:22.620
So I think that I would love to hear this support on my one point.
00:31:29.560
Do you agree that Hamas is a terrorist organization?
00:31:38.540
Because Hamas is a, is an armed resistance group fighting against an occupying army.
00:31:45.380
Because Israel wasn't occupying the land of Palestine, creating and fomenting and fermenting
00:31:50.540
in the soil of repression, a radical extremist group, like you want to call it a radical extremist.
00:31:56.140
When you sideline, fracture, marginalize every possible peaceful chance to reform and have
00:32:04.180
ownership and control over your resources, your land and labor, which is your given right
00:32:10.020
according to international law, then you are left with the only option, which is to violently
00:32:18.360
If you think that Hamas is a terrorist organization, was the, excuse me, the Jewish resistance in
00:32:26.260
the Warsaw ghetto, were they terrorists when they tried to uprise against their Nazi oppressors?
00:32:34.320
Because that's the same exact material power differential.
00:32:37.780
That is the biggest false equivalency that I've ever heard.
00:32:39.880
Well, I mean, I'm really, is that a bad false equivalency?
00:32:42.880
I feel like he's unbiased because if you are in the Jewish ghetto and you're fighting against
00:32:46.200
the Nazis, you would consider them a hero today.
00:32:48.260
To be fair, like they were targeting soldiers where with Hamas there's more deliberate attacks
00:32:54.000
But they did, they did create, they did attack civilians.
00:32:59.620
They made rudimentary makeshift weapons, which were imprecise.
00:33:04.460
They mustered, they marshaled any capabilities that they could to violently resist their own
00:33:11.900
And did they think that that was going to be successful for them?
00:33:19.700
So what was, what was the point of that violence?
00:33:22.140
Why didn't they just lay down and die for the Nazis?
00:33:24.820
If that's your argument, why, why wouldn't they just do that?
00:33:28.040
In your, in your, uh, scenario here, the Nazis are Israel and, uh, the Jews are Hamas.
00:33:40.520
Hold on, now, did the Jews in Warsaw occupy Germany, or, sorry, march into Germany, uh,
00:33:54.700
You're repeating, hold on, no, no, no, you're repeating lies.
00:34:00.400
Did you think, did you see, when you, when you saw, when you saw hand gliders, uh, parasailing
00:34:05.480
over an apartheid wall, when you saw bulldozers bulldozing through an apartheid wall, did
00:34:09.820
you think that that was the Wehrmacht coming in to destroy Israel?
00:34:15.920
When you heard the terrorist calling his parents, like, I killed 10 Jews, I killed 10 Jews,
00:34:20.700
Have you, um, have you watched the documentary?
00:34:23.260
The most of the people that were killed on that day were killed by Israel, according
00:34:30.000
Oh, do you, do you know what the, let's talk about the Hannibal Directive.
00:34:33.220
Let's, let's talk about the, that's what I was trying to get to, the Hannibal Directive.
00:34:37.440
Of course I know what the Hannibal Directive is.
00:34:39.300
The Hannibal Directive is for, is the directive that says that IDF is going to kill its own
00:34:48.380
Yes, they, they must, and in order to avoid, uh, a political scenario.
00:34:53.340
Pull up the Hannibal Directive and tell me if it applies to.
00:34:55.020
It is a little vague, but there are different, this is the one thing, and I'm not even trying
00:34:57.940
to be on Rathbone's side, there is different interpretations of it, because it's like a military
00:35:02.100
But, but, but if we're just being honest, it's, they did use it on that day, and whether
00:35:07.020
I think there was 14 civilians, I think the IDF.
00:35:11.420
Is what they say, and you know, obviously the numbers can be a little fishy.
00:35:14.540
The Hannibal Directive prevents the intentional killing of a civilian, it only applies to
00:35:19.560
IDF soldiers to protect military intelligence if they're being taken hostage by the enemy.
00:35:24.060
So they, they, you just concede the point that they are allowed to kill their own people.
00:35:28.900
If they kill a civilian intentionally, then it's a war crime, it will be investigated and
00:35:35.080
You made it sound like the Hannibal, you, hold on, you made it sound like the Hannibal
00:35:38.800
Directive says, kill anybody you want for any reason, including civilians.
00:35:44.300
The Hannibal Directive is a directive that pretty much every military has, where if you
00:35:49.100
have a soldier that's being taken captive, you can take out the soldier, because let's
00:35:55.080
Let's say they have military intelligence that you don't want to give them their hands.
00:35:57.160
And you don't want to give them leverage and negotiation.
00:35:58.940
That is not, so the Hannibal Directive talking point is being, is, is being parroted by people
00:36:04.880
Well, on October 7th, they instituted the Hannibal Directive and then they used, they
00:36:16.000
Real quick, guys, we're talking about this modern warfare where they're at a music festival.
00:36:19.220
So, so, Zach, I think that you would be very naive to think that if they're using a
00:36:23.200
Black Hawk helicopter, that it would be very possible that a civilian could get hit.
00:36:29.580
The footage you're referring to of the Black Hawk helicopter, what day was that from?
00:36:37.880
You know what, the, I know what footage you're referring to.
00:36:41.660
I'm talking about publications that have reported, according to the IDF, that the majority of the
00:36:47.600
civilians that were killed on October 7th were killed by Israel.
00:36:53.840
It's, it's, it's an Israeli publication itself.
00:37:09.820
Like, it's, it's like when you got car trouble.
00:37:14.400
No, but this is, the vaccine is safe and effective fucking, uh, talk.
00:37:21.460
Oh, I heard it, I heard it from, I heard it from the experts.
00:37:27.040
But real quick, this is how we do know vaccines are safe and effective because one of the most
00:37:30.480
successful ceasefires, uh, you know, in Gaza was so that they could do a vaccine campaign
00:37:36.960
So, that's how you know Israel loves, uh, those vaccines are very safe and effective
00:37:42.740
Um, the, uh, the, the Apache helicopter footage that you are referring to was from October 9th
00:37:47.980
when they were fighting, when they were shooting at Hamas terrorists.
00:37:56.560
You know, it's, it's so, it's so wild that you are saying these people went into these
00:38:03.140
kibbutzes in Israel and somehow still figured out a way to blame Israel, right?
00:38:08.680
It's like, oh my God, they killed civilians when they were, when they were attacked.
00:38:12.300
Like, it's like, okay, if, if Washington DC had like a, had like, I don't know, thousands
00:38:17.400
of terrorists that just came in and soldiers were freaking trying to shoot them and accidentally
00:38:22.120
And then a year and a half later, you're like, can you believe our military shot an American?
00:38:27.940
It's like, yeah, there was civilian casualties.
00:38:31.000
Every single death that is, that is on that day is at the hands of the people who went in
00:38:38.420
Again, that's not according, there's no evidence of rape, but also.
00:38:42.340
There's no, I love that you like to, wait, just can we, can I just.
00:38:46.260
Two hostages that came out of Hamas activity that said I was raped over and over again are
00:38:50.940
Well, we'll get to the rape, but, but let him respond.
00:38:53.060
According, you said that it's, it's everybody that died that day is, is, is the fault of
00:38:58.080
Hamas because they, they, uh, instituted Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.
00:39:02.680
They, they, they, they burst through the apartheid wall.
00:39:09.880
That is not what universal human, humanitarian laws say.
00:39:13.900
Every, uh, you know, you, you read the articles expressed in the UN charter and makes clear
00:39:19.160
that reprisals born against an occupying army or an occupying force are the fault of the
00:39:25.880
occupier ultimately because they created the conditions for a reprisal, for a, uh, an act
00:39:32.340
And that is indeed what you, what you have between the Gaza strip or with, between the
00:39:38.540
The Israelis are legally on like known and, and, and concluded to be occupying people.
00:39:48.020
Because they took land in 1967 and ever, like going back to my previous point, you in resolution
00:39:53.620
two, four, two, when they started the six day war in 1967, who started that war in
00:40:00.120
No, no, no, that was, that was, uh, the Palestinian, not, yeah, no, no, no, no.
00:40:04.700
Well, again, you can say that five wars, you can go into your feelings and you can make
00:40:09.000
it personal all you want, but this is not, I have looked it up.
00:40:13.560
Maybe you in resolution two, four, two is unanimously agreed upon that.
00:40:19.640
And in that war, they acquired territory, which is illegal.
00:40:23.140
And then on top of that, they settled that land.
00:40:26.720
They instituted a blockade and siege of that land.
00:40:31.220
They transferred people into the occupied territories, another war crime.
00:40:35.020
They transferred the indigenous people to other parts of the occupied territory or expelled
00:40:47.480
No, you don't want to go, you don't want to go back that far.
00:40:55.880
When you say that the Arab-Israeli war is, that's, that is a misclassification.
00:41:02.560
That is a straw man of what is exact, what is actually happening.
00:41:05.480
So what you're saying is that if, if Nazis came into your home and, and, and took your
00:41:11.460
home and, and hogtied you and put your family in the basement and said, okay, this is our
00:41:17.300
And you, if you fought back, then you're a terrorist.
00:41:24.700
The Nazis came in and they took my home and then now it's, and now it's a war.
00:41:29.060
I mean, Misfit, don't you have to understand that if your dad got blown up by Israel, wouldn't
00:41:35.720
So, I mean, can't you be a little empathetic to them?
00:41:38.320
I mean, if your dad gets bombed, your grandfather got bombed and, you know.
00:41:42.160
I understand, I understand that there's, there's the argument that if you, you know, if
00:41:47.740
you go after terrorists, you create more terrorists, right?
00:41:49.900
And, and it's, it's an argument that's predicated upon the fact that every conflict that we've,

00:42:53.720
Other nations have gotten into where you try to enact regime changes.
00:42:58.040
They fail miserably because there's this resistance.
00:43:03.860
They don't want to go under your new laws and your new rules.
00:43:08.300
And we don't, God forbid, we try to fucking civilize you people.
00:43:15.660
I don't think we're Islamophobic enough, especially when you think statistically.
00:43:19.940
I mean, I don't even have to really say anything at this point.
00:43:24.060
Over the past 50 years, how many terrorist attacks have been enacted in the name of Islam?
00:43:29.460
Over the past, what are you calling terrorism, dude?
00:43:35.460
The United States is the greatest terrorist state in the world.
00:43:42.240
Like we've occupied, you know, that is our, we are the empire state here.
00:43:46.980
We are, we have been living in the past 50 to 80 years.
00:43:49.500
We've been living in a, in a glow, in a unipolar moment.
00:43:56.920
We have political consciousness in this moment where there has been a one world superpower for
00:44:03.200
the past, ever, ever since the post-World War II, ever since the end of World War II,
00:44:07.140
we have demonstrated unparalleled world supremacy.
00:44:18.620
So when you say terrorists, what you're talking about is resistance to terrorism.
00:44:26.780
If we just got the fuck out of the Middle East, have you just take a look at a map, like
00:44:30.900
look at a map, uh, you know, pull up the map of the military bases that are, that are in
00:44:39.700
You can't find an analog in the Western hemisphere of Middle Easterners or any other, uh, you know,
00:44:44.960
culture or, or, or, or country that is posturing the same way in American, uh, in the American
00:44:52.960
Well, maybe like Minneapolis is a lot of some knowledge, but it is different.
00:44:56.820
It is a little different, uh, than what you're saying.
00:45:03.460
Like we are the bullies that kind of start all this drama.
00:45:06.120
But to your point though, the Islamophobia, this thing, not all Muslims are bad, right?
00:45:11.700
I mean, I mean, so, so when you label like every Muslim is a terrorist, I mean, I didn't
00:45:18.460
I just feel like that narrative, we've created that narrative.
00:45:20.420
And that is kind of a propaganda war that, that every Muslim guy is trying to blow us
00:45:25.760
I think every Islamist is every Islamist is trying to.
00:45:28.760
And you know, the, the funny thing is, by the way, the answer to the question I asked
00:45:32.280
you is, uh, it's over 60,000, over 60,000 terrorist attacks, according to the, the, like
00:45:37.240
the International Council for Terrorism or, or, I mean, you, you, you, you're an appeal
00:45:41.100
to authority on the, let's appeal to authority on the UN.
00:45:43.480
So I might as well bring up, I might as well bring up those steps.
00:45:50.700
I think it's the International Terrorism Council or something like that, but it's the, it's
00:45:54.640
the main site that documents, um, terror, terrorist, uh, events.
00:46:10.040
And the UN is actually the, the institution that I'm citing, which is funded by the UN,
00:46:18.060
You think every single one of these instances, over 60,000 over the past 50 years that have
00:46:23.280
been documented, whether you agree with the numbers or not, you think all of those are
00:46:26.580
resistance, but what Israel is doing right now, after we watched on Telegram, what happened
00:46:37.860
I see the problem in your logic and not understanding that Israel, according to the world consensus,
00:46:42.400
is the belligerent occupier ever since 1967 formally.
00:46:46.740
So 20 years, two decades before the creation of Hamas, there was the acquisition of territory
00:46:58.560
And that's, that's two decades before the creation of Hamas.
00:47:02.220
So you have to ask yourself, and I know this is hard for you to have self-reflection, but
00:47:06.800
in the 20 years since the war of acquisition in 1967, 1987, what was going on?
00:47:14.040
What was Israel doing that would have led to Palestinians feeling as though we need to
00:47:19.520
engage in armed resistance against this occupying army, against this occupying force?
00:47:24.400
It's concluded by every relevant authority in this matter, okay, that Israel has imposed
00:47:33.700
an illegal blockade and siege of the Gaza Strip.
00:47:37.720
They have, you know, starved and, and, and, uh...
00:47:44.520
Why, why would, why would Israel have to feed them?
00:47:50.260
And, and the laws of belligerent occupation require that if you take...
00:47:54.460
But there is an asymmetrical power struggle where Israel has power, so they are responsive.
00:47:59.020
The law of belligerent occupation administered by the International Committee for the Red Cross
00:48:10.860
And again, you know, you can laugh, but this is, uh, we're talking about universal humanitarian
00:48:19.900
And if you are a belligerent occupier under universal humanitarian laws, you have the rights of
00:48:25.400
occupation, okay, you have, you have rights as a belligerent occupier, but you also incur
00:48:30.720
responsibilities and Israel defaults on those responsibilities.
00:48:34.340
I just want to point out that the U.S. tried to establish a peer in Gaza to deliver aid and
00:48:40.020
they were constantly attacked and it had to be dismantled under Biden.
00:48:43.260
So Hamas or whatever groups in Palestine were not looking for help because the U.S. tried
00:48:47.900
So there is resistance going on that you have to acknowledge in the Gaza Strip to this day.
00:48:52.280
I mean, and you, you see, you see the pallets of food and, uh, and fuel and coal.
00:49:02.120
Then why does Israel have the pallets sitting there ready to go in?
00:49:06.560
Because, because international aid organizations have delivered it up to the apartheid wall and
00:49:16.260
Would you agree that you have working eyes and ears based off of this conversation?
00:49:19.420
I think that's in the affirmative, have you seen the videos of Hamas firing on their
00:49:23.800
own civilians, right, when they get those aid trucks in?
00:49:27.520
That's, that's, that's, that's Israeli, that's Israeli, that's those Israeli forces
00:49:33.100
And again, again, again, again, again, even if that was true, which I, which I, even if
00:49:38.960
They're talking about a belligerent occupier occupying people.
00:49:44.720
They, they don't get the right to say, they don't get the right to say, oh, look at them.
00:49:50.220
So is Hamas resisting against the Palestinians?
00:49:52.120
They're, they're, they're stealing the loot, they're looting the, the aid.
00:50:01.100
You have no right to go in there and tell them what, you know, how much food can be let in.
00:50:05.740
They have, they, they're a country, they're allowed to trade, they're allowed, they're
00:50:10.780
not, they're not a country because they're denied the rights of a country.
00:50:16.540
You can make that argument, but they're not a country.
00:50:19.100
So you can't occupy something that isn't a fucking country.
00:50:25.880
It's recognized as a sovereign territory, but it is under illegal occupation.
00:50:30.260
It's a territory that's being deprived its rights as a country.
00:50:40.420
So why wouldn't a Palestinian do the same thing, whether, whether you're in Texas or Massachusetts?
00:50:44.520
I'm saying they, they're going to die for the country just like you would die for America.
00:50:50.140
And we had a civil war over, over the issue of slavery, right?
00:50:53.820
And they, some people thought they were right and the other people thought they were
00:50:58.100
And I think that it was necessary to end slavery.
00:51:01.560
I wouldn't say that the North and the South both didn't believe what they were doing is
00:51:06.660
But I think that we can all agree that one side was right, one side was wrong, and the
00:51:16.640
This is, you have the Palestinians, not the Palestinian people, not the Palestinian people,
00:51:25.260
And you have the de facto government that they elected.
00:51:28.820
And this is why they don't have a right to any of these arguments of we're a territory,
00:51:33.980
Because the Palestinians got together like 20 years ago and they said, you know who we
00:51:46.980
Okay, so they voted in terrorists to fight the illegal occupation.
00:51:51.720
It's because the Israelis installed subcontractors to carry out the duties of occupation in the
00:52:00.540
And the Palestinians correctly realized that their situation was not changing.
00:52:05.400
The Oslo Accords in the 90s did not come to a peaceful appropriation of their rights.
00:52:15.480
You are, you're smug and you're not, you're not under occupation.
00:52:19.920
You don't know what it's like being systematically starved.
00:52:22.740
You don't know what it's like to have your families bombed in the middle of the night.
00:52:26.120
You don't understand what it's like to have these campaigns of terror instituted against
00:52:30.820
your territory, against your homes and families.
00:52:35.640
But the Palestinians understood that under the PLO, they were being subverted.
00:52:42.520
And it was really just in a Mossad cutout at that point.
00:52:46.420
They installed subcontractors to take on the duties of occupation and to, and so that the
00:52:51.280
Israelis could wash their hands clean and say, look, we're not really involved, even
00:52:55.460
though they were very intimately involved, involved.
00:52:58.440
And they, you know, that that's been spelled out throughout the entire 90s.
00:53:01.940
And that led to the second intifada, which began peacefully.
00:53:05.420
It was a peaceful protest against the occupation forces.
00:53:10.360
According to the Israeli minister at the time who was involved in the Oslo Accords, Shlomo
00:53:18.300
Ben-Ami says that the IDF escalated the situation.
00:53:23.420
There was an authentic Palestinian struggle for self-determination.
00:53:30.800
2000, 2001, the second intifada began peacefully.
00:53:35.400
It was a peaceful protest against the occupying force and the finance minister, Shlomo Ben-Ami,
00:53:44.020
He concluded that it began peacefully and it was an authentic Palestinian struggle for
00:53:50.200
And it only escalated into an all-out war when the IDF started shooting them down after,
00:53:56.180
you know, maybe a kid was throwing a rock or something, you know?
00:54:00.620
Because, you know, those rocks are really deadly.
00:54:04.820
How many rockets are fired into Israel on average?
00:54:08.040
Again, you do not claim a moral right if that moral right traces back to an illegal wrong.
00:54:13.240
This is something that the ancient Greeks understood.
00:54:14.920
When they said ex injuria non-jewis orator, they meant that a legal right cannot be invoked
00:54:21.700
So when you acquire territory and you occupy people, you don't get the right to self-defense
00:54:31.840
Because your whole entire argument, everything that you've been saying is a he-started-it argument.
00:54:41.680
Well, we could go back to the beginning of time.
00:54:46.620
Biblical rights have no status in the world today.
00:54:52.260
Let's start with the creation of the nation-state of Israel.
00:54:58.140
The UNGA 181 partition plan, which gave Israel the international birth certificate, was itself
00:55:06.500
I do not agree with the decision to create the state of Israel.
00:55:12.240
So just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean it was not created.
00:55:17.980
Is it created in a legal format, is it an established nation?
00:55:22.660
Yes, by the Western, European, and United States countries.
00:55:27.820
Even those institutions that gave Israel the international birth certificate in 1948,
00:55:33.860
even those institutions condemn Israel ever since 1967.
00:55:37.520
That's why my argument goes back to 1967, formally...
00:55:45.920
And it goes back to the 1890s, ever since Jewish immigration to Palestine by the Zionists
00:55:53.880
Theodore Herzl's vision for a modern state of Israel where Jews have a right to live
00:56:00.760
in peace and exist in that particular location, which wasn't...
00:56:04.880
It wasn't even really part of the original plan to be right there in Israel.
00:56:07.300
If you read Theodore Herzl's diary, he makes clear that he knew that they would have to
00:56:11.100
dispossess and spirit, quote, spirit the penniless population of the territory to come over
00:56:18.560
After we've dispossessed and taken their lands and resettled it, we're going to give them
00:56:23.800
breadcrumbs to make sure that they're going to be copacetic to the whole situation.
00:56:28.280
But dispossession and depriving of the land, resources, and labor of these indigenous peoples
00:56:37.120
That's the formulation of Zionism at the beginning.
00:56:40.060
Okay, but let's just at least agree on the point that Israel was created, and whether you
00:56:56.360
A lot of deals were turned down by the Palestinians, and they were offered this territory and that
00:57:01.420
territory, and they said, no, no, no, and they started war after war after war after war.
00:57:04.840
And you think, hold on, you think all of these wars, right, that have been started by one
00:57:09.500
side, right, it's a very one-sided initiation of conflict, you think all of them are justified
00:57:15.100
because all of its resistance, just because of the mere fact that Israel was created.
00:57:20.980
I come into your home, I hogtie your family, I give you the basement, I take over the upper
00:57:27.340
And then you somehow free yourself, and you try to come up and attack me, and I say, oh,
00:57:37.920
That is exactly what has happened in 1948 with the creation of the State of Israel.
00:57:42.120
Remember, you said that, oh, we were so benevolent, we gave them all this land.
00:57:46.160
No, you took, the majority of the land that was allotted to the Jewish Zionist settlers
00:58:00.900
Yeah, but this goes back to my original, my point.
00:58:04.800
If it's a nation that has been established, how can you occupy your own nation?
00:58:15.600
There has been peace agreement after peace agreement after peace agreement that has been
00:58:23.500
And look, there's been ceasefires that have been broken by Israel, okay?
00:58:28.360
And there's been ceasefires that have been broken by Palestine.
00:58:35.580
How is it that I can say from a pro-Israel side,
00:58:38.760
I am agreeing that Israel has broken ceasefires, right?

You will not acknowledge that there has been any wrongdoing on one side.
00:59:53.760
Because, again, the principal contradiction is occupied people versus...
01:00:01.180
Show me where the Palestinians have broken a ceasefire, okay?
01:00:05.580
The whole point of a ceasefire is that they're under occupation, okay?
01:00:11.380
You are tacitly accepting the inherent violence of the occupation.
01:00:14.480
We can do whatever we want because we believe that there's an occupation.
01:00:18.260
We can do whatever we want because we believe there's an occupation.
01:00:22.220
Again, these are international conclusions that have been drawn by legal, you know, authorities, okay?
01:00:39.700
But your whole entire argument hinges on one point.
01:00:48.040
And if there is an occupation, anything goes, right?
01:01:01.240
You said earlier there was no rape from the Palestinians.
01:01:04.940
What would Auschwitz, like, what would the Jews in Auschwitz have to do?
01:01:14.120
There was two hostages that were released from Hamas captivity that said,
01:01:25.960
There were two hostages, women, that were released from captivity in one of the hostage negotiations.
01:01:31.420
Did you see the IDF soldiers raping these Palestinian detainees?
01:01:36.720
There's tens of thousands of prisoners in the Israeli-
01:01:42.880
There were two women who were released from Hamas captivity who said,
01:01:49.700
At least half the women in captivity out of the 200 and something hostages were raped repeatedly.
01:01:55.840
There is documented evidence from firsthand accounts.
01:01:59.180
If you watch the documentary Screams Before Silence, I doubt you will because you'll just call it Israeli propaganda.
01:02:04.960
They go over all of the evidence that they have.
01:02:06.520
I do not entrust anything out of Israel's fucking mouth.
01:02:08.680
Of course you don't because then you'd have to acknowledge facts.
01:02:18.000
There's no legitimacy until there's an actual independent-
01:02:24.900
Israel doesn't let third party organizations to come in and actually do investigations.
01:02:51.600
For argument's sake, let's just agree and let's just admit maybe both sides, and sadly, I don't know why we have to admit this, have raped people.
01:02:58.160
I know it's disgusting, or it's disgusting, the sexual assault, let's just call it a wash.
01:03:03.680
I will be happy to say that there's a high likelihood that there has been an Israeli soldier that has raped somebody.
01:03:13.500
There's Palestinians that'll have sex with a goat, no offense.
01:03:15.760
I'm just saying, so I'm not surprised they've raped a human.
01:03:18.520
My point is, though, even if there were some sexual assaults, which is horrible, still being murdered is worse than a sexual assault.
01:03:25.300
Yeah, but I'm saying, he's calling it resistance. It's not resistance to rape people.
01:03:29.640
Again, you know, we're talking about occupied people.
01:03:41.740
No, but I'm saying, we use this rape, we see this narrative constantly, rape, rape, rape, and because, I'm sure there was a rape that probably happened,
01:03:48.520
and does that mean little kids should not be able to get flour to make bread?
01:03:53.360
Again, we have, like you just said earlier, we have built a pier for aid.
01:04:06.980
Because they're deprived of their rights as a country.
01:04:11.320
They're allowed to be, they're internationally recognized as a sovereign territory, and their rights are being deprived.
01:04:20.040
And that's something that's beyond you or me or this room, okay?
01:04:23.080
That is what world institutions have concluded.
01:04:27.260
If you want a pearl clutch about the violence committed on October 7th, fine!
01:04:36.800
The constant shifting of blame to the people who were attacked on October 7th is the most disingenuous argument.
01:04:49.180
Did you know that October 7th wasn't a bright, beautiful day?
01:04:52.580
In fact, there were 2.3 million people enclosed in a concentration camp who were slowly starving to death,
01:04:58.660
and they decided, you know what, we're going to do something about it because I don't want to die anymore.
01:05:08.060
The fact that there is an illegal blockade, Bronze Age siege warfare instituted against the Gaza Strip,
01:05:13.700
on part by the Israelis, yes, they've had to construct tunnels underneath the ground
01:05:19.620
because, you know, apparently Israelis expect Palestinians to just stand on the surface while we bomb you.
01:05:28.600
They've destroyed every single fucking building in 2014.
01:05:33.000
Are the Gazan civilians allowed to go in those tunnels and protect themselves from Israeli bombs?
01:05:38.880
Are Gazan civilians allowed to go under into tunnels?
01:05:49.840
And this is on video of Gazans actually saying we're not allowed to go in the tunnels.
01:06:06.720
The reason that the tunnels are there is because of the Israeli occupation.
01:06:21.380
And you're pearl clutching about the fucking tunnels.
01:06:23.880
They created the tunnels because of the occupation.
01:06:26.780
So they created the tunnels because of the occupation.
01:06:28.300
Most of the tunnels, most of the tunnels were there to import food.
01:06:34.640
90% of the food that comes into the Gaza Strip has to come in under the Rafa border.
01:07:00.780
Oh, but they don't allow their civilians in the tunnels.
01:07:02.740
So therefore, let's just continue bombing them.
01:07:04.840
So in 2005, right, Hamas has the opportunity to build infrastructure, help their own people,
01:07:18.040
How do you think they got the money to build the fucking tunnels?
01:07:27.380
I'm just saying, okay, they probably are getting too dark money.
01:07:29.020
You think people just want to build tunnels to be underground?
01:07:33.620
It's because they're being bombed, you dumb fuck.
01:07:41.540
Actually, Sarah Roy, a Harvard economist, has studied this extensively going back to the 90s.
01:07:46.440
And she, as well as a plethora of other economists, have determined that 90% of all the tunnels that go into Gaza and come out of Gaza were created post-2005,
01:08:02.260
which means that after Israel imposed the harsh blockade, yes, predictably, and after they committed these operations, these terrorist operations in the Gaza Strip where they demolished the entire Strip,
01:08:16.720
yes, they created more tunnels to circumvent the Israeli occupation.
01:08:23.660
How does a tunnel circumvent an Israeli operation?
01:08:25.240
Because you go underground, and then that way you can smuggle in shit that you need to have a society because it's being deprived.
01:08:33.360
No, I don't mean like bombs, actually, because most of the shit, like I just said, that went into Rafah from Egypt was food, clothing, construction materials.
01:08:44.600
Shit that you need to have an actual fucking society because if you don't have buildings, you can't organize.
01:08:49.260
Since 2005, when they started building the tunnels, there has been a grand total of 32,330 rockets and mortars fired towards Israel.
01:08:57.480
2005, and you know, predictably, that's when the occupation ratcheted up the blockade, ratcheted up the siege.
01:09:04.340
Did you see how ludicrous that was where they said they weren't going to send them cookies because they could use the cookies?
01:09:13.200
I think that, look, if it were me, I wouldn't fucking let anything in there.
01:09:17.820
If you, well, I know, because you're, you're, you're a spineless coward.
01:09:21.900
No, I mean, I wouldn't, listen, if Mexico did what Hamas did, I wouldn't fucking send snacks to Mexico.
01:09:28.840
Even a person on death row in prison, I hate them.
01:09:31.220
I think they deserve to eat food, believe it or not.
01:09:32.980
Sure, but if that fucking, if that person on death row is firing a rocket at you fucking 15 times a day, I'd probably defeat them.
01:09:39.940
If they killed a family of seven, you know, in a weird rage, a fit of rage, I still believe that person, when they go to jail, should not be starved.
01:09:48.240
What we're, what the point we're leaving out is there is a, there is a, there is a, there is a, there is a, there is a consistent threat to Israel that is proven through the amount of rockets that is being fired at Israel daily.
01:10:09.700
Well, I understand that, but it's like a lot of those bombs, I mean, I don't know how big of a, you know.
01:10:13.780
Yeah, but just because they're bad at it doesn't mean that it's fucking, no.
01:10:16.600
It's the foreign countries that they're actually afraid of.
01:10:22.540
There's, you know, documented evidence that shows that, you know, an overwhelming majority of the rockets that are fired into the green zone, the green line into Israel.
01:10:34.780
And they're counted as if they are, oh, it's another, oh, we're under attack.
01:10:39.900
And it's a way of showing how good the Iron Dome is.
01:10:44.780
So your argument, so you're going against, and the argument is they build, your argument is they build shitty rockets and fire them at Israel.
01:10:50.340
Yeah, because they don't have a military, but they, you know, they're deprived.
01:10:52.460
They are the military, it's called Hamas, you called them resistance.
01:10:54.780
They're deprived, they're deprived of having any, show me a military base.
01:11:01.640
Exactly, where is their, where is their military base?
01:11:03.520
They are embedded into the civilian population, which is why Gaza looks like Hiroshima.

BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario.
01:12:09.260
Their military base is any fucking house they want.
01:12:14.680
So the head of the Mossad, which the Cure League compound or whatever it's called in downtown Tel Aviv, we can just bomb downtown Tel Aviv since there's a Mossad building there.
01:12:26.700
The IDF headquarters are underground in Tel Aviv.
01:12:31.140
We can just wipe off Tel Aviv off the map, right?
01:12:41.580
So let's say there was, according to you, a resistance force, right?
01:12:46.120
A resistance force that was in Detroit that was firing rockets at their neighbors, you know, like outer Detroit, whatever.
01:12:54.000
And we were saying, okay, these people are literally embedding themselves in downtown Detroit.
01:12:59.300
And they're constantly firing rockets out, and they're hiding among civilians, and we can't do anything about it.
01:13:11.880
We've kind of had that where there's been resistance.
01:13:13.540
Yeah, I mean, that's a very tamed down version of it.
01:13:16.800
We don't bomb chop because chop isn't a threat.
01:13:19.100
When there's a school shooter mowing down kindergartners, we should just bomb the school that way.
01:13:22.800
Speaking of school shooters, the one that just took out a couple of kids this week wrote Free Palestine in their manifesto.
01:13:30.240
Well, to this trans shooter, though, everybody's saying that he was anti-Israel.
01:13:33.880
He did go to a Catholic church and shoot at mass, so I would think he's more anti-Christian.
01:13:38.980
The synagogues were, they have security because of all the threats that they get, right?
01:13:43.120
Well, regardless, I'm just saying if he really was that anti-Israel, I think he would have not gone to a Catholic church.
01:13:49.040
I think the cowards who kill children find a soft target.
01:13:57.920
I'm not saying he necessarily loves Israel, but I just think he hates Catholics more.
01:14:01.460
Well, I think that he hates the children of Abraham.
01:14:03.660
I think that he hates anything, like the overwhelming majority of Christians are Zionists.
01:14:16.660
I mean, that's why I am a, quote, Zionist is because I believe in the Abrahamic covenant.
01:14:21.180
Well, let's talk about this real quick, though.
01:14:24.160
But I want to talk about the woke right because you aren't really necessarily woke right.
01:14:28.660
And there's a, you know, that's a huge conservative debate.
01:14:31.360
I'm sure you're familiar with that, Rathbone, about how conservatives are now fighting because most Christians are pro-Israel.
01:14:37.740
And then let's get into the kind of the woke right argument.
01:14:39.900
Yeah, well, I mean, it's just we're talking about, like, dispensationalism, right?
01:14:43.660
And I think it's fair to say that dispensationalism, which is a sort of modern view, a modern way to view the Bible, has completely guided our foreign policy over the last 70, 80 years.
01:14:56.940
And now you are seeing pushback from Christians, specifically Catholics and Reformed Protestants, against sort of this dispensational view of the Bible.
01:15:08.660
And I think that's you are seeing that's why you're seeing sort of a shift of Christians not supporting Israel on theological grounds anymore.
01:15:17.720
There's there's two different ways to support Israel.
01:15:20.440
You can support the people of Israel, which I believe are the ones that fall under the Abrahamic covenant, which is the Jews, the people of the Jewish faith.
01:15:29.080
Not secular Jews, not this not this nation state of Israel.
01:15:33.660
That's more where I come from, from my arguments on it.
01:15:36.900
But, you know, you talk about dispensationalism and how, you know, the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church don't really align with the modern Zionism.
01:15:47.140
It's it's a it's not as big of a percentage as I think a lot of people are inflating it to be.
01:15:50.620
But the the Second Vatican Council Declaration, a nos rete, affirms God's covenant with the Jewish people has never been revoked.
01:15:57.700
An official Catholic teaching holds the old covenant retains its value and that the Jewish people remain most dear to God.
01:16:03.160
So modern Catholic documents reaffirm that the abrogationist superset the supersessionism, the view that Christianity has replaced Judaism entirely lacks foundational Catholic doctrine.
01:16:14.800
Well, it's not a replacement, but I believe I mean, I'm a reformed Protestant, but the catechism of the Catholic Church does hold the view that like in the Pauline letters, like in Galatians, where the promises made to Abraham were fulfilled in Christ.
01:16:27.620
That's the new covenant. And so and the argument that I would make, which is the I guess you could call it the dispensationalist argument.
01:16:34.520
It's not really. But you know what I'm saying is under the Abrahamic covenant, it's an everlasting covenant.
01:16:39.440
Right. So and if God if God is omnipotent, doesn't make mistakes, then he can't create an everlasting covenant that would have an end date.
01:16:47.520
Right. Right. So and it wouldn't transfer because if it would if it would transfer, then they wouldn't have to create the new covenant.
01:16:53.200
It would just be the same covenant. It is the same covenant. It's the overarching covenant of grace.
01:16:58.900
But why would it be called the new covenant? Because it's still the same covenant between God and his people.
01:17:03.600
But new would mean different. Well, new as in the old one has been fulfilled.
01:17:08.980
No, it's the old promises. We go right back to that.
01:17:12.500
If the Abrahamic covenant is an everlasting covenant, it can't be fulfilled.
01:17:17.520
It's everlasting. We have to define what the covenant is and the covenant would be the definitive means of salvation.
01:17:25.160
Sure. And I mean, and there's the argument that the people that is the people that are defined as Israel are now Christians.
01:17:33.540
Right. And Jews are not. And there's this that would be replacement theology.
01:17:39.640
And I just think it's I think it's a lazy, a silly way to view the Bible, because there's so many references in the Bible that that kind of the refute that there's all.
01:17:50.540
Hey, I think you're right. Kellen, what are you all talking?
01:17:55.080
Are you just looking up Gaza? I thought you're looking up something.
01:17:57.460
Someone in chat said there's a McDonald's operating Gaza. I don't think.
01:18:02.520
Well, you know, they just spent $50,000 on a rooftop.
01:18:06.500
They just spent $50,000 on a rooftop party in Gaza. And that's that's on video.
01:18:15.020
There's one left. And if you went over there and you.
01:18:22.240
You do have to admit that argument, though, Rathbone.
01:18:26.360
It's that Tel Aviv is arguably one of the gayest cities in America is one of the gayest, you know, obviously very friendly to the gays.
01:18:32.460
And a lot of progressives, you know, are very pro-gay.
01:18:35.820
And then you see Hamas and culturally, you know, Islam is not necessarily Sharia law.
01:18:40.720
I think that we should bomb their entire system.
01:18:42.420
No, I agree. I don't think we should bomb them.
01:18:44.680
Because of how they domestically look at their culture.
01:18:46.940
But you can see how that, you can just see how that argument does kind of create, you know, a little friction.
01:18:53.220
But, you know, I also don't think that Israel is sympathetic to gays necessarily because gay marriage is outlawed.
01:19:03.180
So you see that argument from the left where it's like, hey, if you're pro-LGBTQ, then why would you be pro-Palestine?
01:19:08.360
I'm just saying that is a tough argument, you know, because you're like, because I debate both sides.
01:19:13.340
To me, it's not a good argument because you're trying to run cover for the IDF bombing indiscriminately.
01:19:20.040
What do you say? Indiscriminately, right? What do you mean by that?
01:19:30.620
Well, they admit, though, Misfit, that they make mistakes.
01:19:33.700
And sometimes it was a mistake we bombed that Catholic church.
01:19:41.320
I think that they're very talented and know what the hell they're doing.
01:19:44.140
I mean, look, you can make that argument that there's mistakes that happen in war, and I think that that would be a valid argument.
01:19:53.740
I think that you should call them out when they do something wrong, and I think that you should—
01:20:01.400
Because if it's an asymmetrical power struggle where one person has all the bombs and the other people have no food, how is this a war, right?
01:20:08.880
I mean, doesn't a war have to be a little more 50-50, 60-40 if it's 99 versus 1 percent?
01:20:14.160
Well, are you saying that if a weaker enemy commits that act that was happening?
01:20:20.060
Well, it's like you're saying how they're not even a country.
01:20:21.660
Well, then in that case, they're not even an enemy, and then really they shouldn't even be fighting them.
01:20:25.960
Well, I mean, one could make the argument that it is a civil war.
01:20:29.020
Well, you know, the Jews in Auschwitz were a weaker enemy, so I think maybe, according to your argument, we should have—more of them should have.
01:20:37.480
You know, we should just terror bomb Auschwitz.
01:20:39.060
If you look at it that way, right, the Jews were—where was the Jews' army?
01:20:51.520
Well, I mean, famously, you had the Jewish resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943.
01:20:57.760
Yeah, well, they—I mean, listen, they weren't able to fight back.
01:21:01.900
Well, according to your argument, if they're not able to fight back, they're just a weaker enemy.
01:21:05.480
Is Hamas a resistance group, a.k.a. militia, a.k.a. military?
01:21:14.320
They might—they're an armed resistance group, but I wouldn't classify them as the Wehrmacht or the Russian army or anything like this.
01:21:23.540
They've been denied—and that's the thing is that Israel has denied them military infrastructure, health care infrastructure, education infrastructure—

BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario.
01:22:31.820
And this is all before October 7th, I'm talking about.
01:22:49.960
And that same thing played out in Operation Cast Lead in 2009.
01:22:53.700
I mean, it's what the Israelis acknowledge as mowing the lawn.
01:22:56.680
They have to periodically go in there and mow the lawn.
01:23:00.380
It means massacre a bunch of people, destroy all their buildings, and then blockade them from having access to actually reconstruct their society.
01:23:09.640
We're never going to be able to get anywhere in this conversation.
01:23:13.240
Because earlier you said that Hamas is not a terrorist group, right?
01:23:32.340
Yeah, but TikTok is a communist Chinese-run fucking...
01:23:35.340
But it's just a way to run a litmus test of kind of seeing where people's opinions are.
01:23:38.700
But I mean, look, let's talk about that real quick, right?
01:23:45.120
Some people are living in the online world, and they're not in the real world.
01:23:49.800
There's a different world than Twitter in the real world.
01:23:52.360
When you take a poll on X, how many people that are voting on it are bots?
01:23:56.500
How many people are voting on it are on 50 different accounts voting?
01:24:00.020
Israel's not losing the propaganda war just because of bots.
01:24:05.500
Well, it's fair to say, too, like, among Gen Z, I think Israel's support has completely collapsed.
01:24:12.100
Zach, that's why I'm getting kind of more radicalized, because I do believe in Israel's,
01:24:17.260
I do believe that they should have a piece of the pie there, but I also believe in a two-state
01:24:21.140
I believe the Palestinians should have a right to survive, too.
01:24:22.300
Well, and that's why I think this kind of gets at it, is like, I think for Israel,
01:24:25.760
they do feel like there is a time, like, they have a limited amount of time to make
01:24:30.080
Well, they just hit the red heifer, and you saw Adam King talk about this.
01:24:33.940
They're trying to build the third temple, so, I mean, obviously, they have some big plans,
01:24:39.480
but real quick, now let's talk about, because we're talking about the propaganda war.
01:24:43.440
Zach, I want to get your opinion on this, and I know this isn't necessarily Israel-Palestine,
01:24:47.600
but doesn't it frustrate you when you see this guy, Tom Alexander, who's a cybersecurity
01:24:51.620
executive for Benjamin Netanyahu, gets caught in a pedophile sting?
01:24:54.940
And, you know, I'm not even really mad that they extradited him.
01:25:00.780
But what makes me mad is that you haven't seen any mainstream media coverage of this.
01:25:05.280
I know you and I see it a lot on Twitter, but you're not seeing it to a level that if
01:25:09.760
this was a Russian cybersecurity, if this was a Palestinian cybersecurity directive, if
01:25:14.660
this was a cybersecurity directive for basically any other country, it would have been, you
01:25:20.400
But instead, you have people like me, you know, that don't have that many followers and
01:25:25.720
Don't you think it's kind of weird that stuff like that happens and it's not a bigger story?
01:25:29.240
Well, I don't think it's necessarily weird what happened.
01:25:33.240
I think that this guy should be buried underneath a prison, right?
01:25:39.860
That he's a disgusting pedophile and, well, from, let's say, innocent until proven guilty,
01:25:46.660
So what I'm saying is I don't think it's strange that he went back to Israel because he's from
01:26:00.360
But you know, I like it when things are covered evenly and equally, right?
01:26:04.200
They're covering, if they were to cover only him and leave out the fact that a pastor was
01:26:14.560
But the pastor didn't work for, you know, Billy Graham.
01:26:19.920
The argument that I'm seeing online, and I know that this is kind of separate from the
01:26:23.040
media coverage, which I think they should cover it.
01:26:29.920
Well, maybe Israel has a lot of power in our media.
01:26:32.520
Maybe you have an argument for Israel's like, don't talk about that shit.
01:26:40.080
But I think that some of the rhetoric online is that there's some grand conspiracy.
01:26:46.400
What I don't see is some like, the Jews pulled some strings and that's why.
01:26:52.500
No, he was arrested, arraigned, indicted, and let go under the same conditions as everyone
01:27:10.140
He is technically allowed to leave if the judge didn't give him a restriction, which that
01:27:14.000
Here's when you'll hear me going, like, full send on agreement with all these other
01:27:21.040
If he does not come back for his trial, and Israel does not extradite him, then you'll
01:27:27.720
hear me make an argument that that's absolutely fucking bullshit.
01:27:43.580
It's a federal case, and she kicked it down and blamed them for their mishandling of it.
01:27:50.560
There was something weird with that, but at the same time, though, because that was...
01:27:54.160
I know it's a felony, but it's not actually that uncommon for them to make it a state
01:27:58.820
case and not a federal case, you know, unless they had a ton of evidence.
01:28:01.780
In fact, if she were to take it, it would have...
01:28:04.360
But she definitely gave him favorable treatment.
01:28:06.620
I'm just saying, for that crime, because he didn't actually rape the kid he was trying
01:28:19.580
He's the head of the cybersecurity, and in fact, he was on the record in an interview
01:28:23.900
talking about how they get 90% of pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel content off of Facebook and Instagram.
01:28:35.480
He just got to leave the country, which is not always a standard operating procedure for
01:28:39.140
I think that if the DA actually did put her finger on it, then that actually would have
01:28:44.040
looked worse, because then it would have been maybe a conflict of interest.
01:28:47.480
That's why I think that she was like, listen, I don't want anything to do with it, you know,
01:28:52.980
So a liberal judge let him go, but he also let everyone else go.
01:28:57.980
I'm just more mad that the media coverage doesn't talk about it, because I think...
01:29:01.700
And you know, Israel should make a statement, too.
01:29:07.780
So that's why I get frustrated, is the misinformation.
01:29:12.540
If they're going to bomb and do this stuff, just be a little more honest about it, because
01:29:27.020
There are valid criticisms of every nation, every government.
01:29:30.640
Our own government has done some shady fucking shit.
01:29:36.320
So anybody that's making any arguments against Israel, please do, as long as they're valid,
01:29:41.360
as long as they're objective, and as long as...
01:29:44.940
Well, no, I was just actually the thing I was...
01:29:46.920
I just thought the whole story about the Tom Alexandrovich and his extradition.
01:29:52.420
Wasn't he in Las Vegas for a cybersecurity conference?
01:29:55.860
He was there for a cybersecurity conference, yes.
01:30:05.000
That doesn't mean all Jews are bad or child predators.
01:30:08.160
That's what they're going to try to clip it because we talk about this.
01:30:10.420
But I just get frustrated because the media does have a lot of control of the narrative.
01:30:15.000
And when it comes to Israel especially, they're not very critical.
01:30:19.400
And that's why on social media, the propaganda war, Israel's losing so bad.
01:30:25.000
Like, I want to talk about this and I don't have any outlets.
01:30:27.040
So I think that's why the woke right, and that's why I want to kind of get to the woke right.
01:30:29.920
A lot of conservatives, and Rathbun, you go first.
01:30:32.300
What do you see about the infighting between conservatives that are pro-Israel and anti-Israel?
01:30:37.000
What do I see about the conservatives between pro-Israel?
01:30:42.140
I look at it as a fraction in the ruling class.
01:30:46.460
But you see like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, people that I like, they're getting critiqued.
01:30:51.360
I don't ultimately agree with their politics, but I think that they're right, and I can be critical of them and accept that they're right in the situation when they condemn Israel.
01:31:02.740
But I don't think that ultimately their motives are too good.
01:31:07.440
What do you think, their motives just clicks is what you're trying to say?
01:31:10.820
Because speaking out against Israel does not help your career.
01:31:15.740
Because, you know, I think maybe they're, perhaps it's, I don't really indulge in their content, okay?
01:31:26.000
But I would say that I think that it's, there's, they're America first kind of conservatives.
01:31:33.940
Well, the reason why I bring that up is because Misfit is fighting with conservatives all the time.
01:31:37.100
You know, he's really not, now you're more of a progressive or leftist, whatever you want to describe yourself.
01:31:42.020
I'm just saying, usually it's, he's fighting against Jake Shields or some other guy that is a Trump supporter that is anti-Israel.
01:31:51.140
Again, I don't side with them, but I think that they're right in that particular instance.
01:31:58.360
Like, you know, really nobody's just far right.
01:32:00.080
Like, we're really more in the middle, and there's obviously some, like, I'm more conservative, but I do think we should have socialized healthcare caps or something to make healthcare more affordable.
01:32:08.320
I think they're imperial neocons, and they like imperialism, and they like to do all these things, but I think they see with Israel, and it's true, Israel is an albatross around our neck.
01:32:24.340
If we talk about the $3 billion, isn't that kind of small potatoes in relation to what we give other countries and stuff?
01:32:31.720
I mean, I think Jordan and Egypt's number two, but we give them, like, $2 billion, I think.
01:32:39.240
I mean, it is a lot of money, but it is kind of, like, small.
01:32:45.020
I'm just saying, in the past two years, I mean, we've given—
01:32:48.800
We've given, I think, $300 over $300 billion on record.
01:32:51.620
Since the genocide started, since post-October 7th, we have—there has been—not 15 hours has gone by without a shipment of weapons from the United States to Israel, and I think that's insane.
01:33:09.600
I think that war is necessary when it's necessary.
01:33:13.940
I think that if we were anti-war when Hitler was doing his thing, then Hitler would be fucking speaking German.
01:33:20.440
Well, it's funny that you bring up World War II, because America actually didn't get into that conflict until after Pearl Harbor, and they tried whatever they could to not get involved.
01:33:27.740
That is a very good point, because I'm seeing a lot of isolationists and a lot of, you know, nationalists who are saying, like—or anti-interventionists who are saying, like, oh, we should go back to that mentality.
01:33:40.300
Like, last time America tried that shit, this is the thing.
01:33:43.480
When you are not a force that is sort of—I don't think that we should be totally interventionalists.
01:33:50.220
I think that there's a happy medium between isolationism and interventionism, where you just take only the necessary steps to stop evil that's happening.
01:33:59.720
Because if it's going to affect us, if you're America first, you should be looking at who are our enemies, who are our threats, and how do we stop that threat?
01:34:08.160
And I would make the argument that Hitler was a threat to the Jews, but he was also a threat to America.
01:34:14.840
When you look at America's biggest export basically being bombs or the military-industrial complex, America is only encouraged by more war.
01:34:23.540
There's a happy medium between intervention—I don't like the way we do it right now.
01:34:27.320
I'm not saying—I'm not a fucking Bush Republican.
01:34:29.960
But you're saying we're fighting evil, and I think you made the claim that, like, religious ideology drives foreign policy.
01:34:38.060
I think that's a—I don't want to agree with that assessment.
01:34:41.940
I think economic systems drive military and political events.
01:34:48.500
And, you know, for example, the reason that Israel is allowed to do what it's allowed to do is because the people in power are benefiting from it economically.
01:35:12.160
You make the argument that if there's a threat, resistance is necessary.
01:35:15.600
Yeah, because, again, Israel, under international law, and according to international institutions which are administering international law, Israel is an occupying force.
01:35:25.880
And you can cope and brood and seethe about it all you want, but that's the truth.
01:35:29.280
Well, there is something to be said, too, is, like, I do think—I disagree with the characterization that American foreign policy is strictly—
01:35:35.680
I mean, not strictly, but largely driven by economic—because you can look at, like, our embargo of South Africa, for example.
01:35:41.780
It would be extremely beneficial for the American elite to have the arrangement that they had in South Africa because of mineral extraction, direct access, and that sort of thing.
01:35:52.080
And then they place an embargo because of ideology, right?
01:35:54.140
It's wrong to—apartheid was morally wrong, so obviously, as a motive.
01:36:00.760
There's—you know, there's the—I think of it like there's the economic base, and then there's the superstructure of culture, social, political life, and ideas.
01:36:08.280
And the economic base gives life to all society, politics, culture, and influences it greatly.
01:36:17.700
However, there are times when you can see that culture also influences the economic base.
01:36:23.940
I'm just—I think I'm just making a broad thesis here by saying that economic systems, generally speaking, drive foreign policy, drive military and political events.
01:36:32.960
I think you'd have to say that every government has a little religious influence, and every religion has a little political influence.
01:36:40.700
Because, like, you look at, like, the global war on terror, for example.
01:36:43.780
Like, I don't think it's a fair characterization people reduce it just down to oil.
01:36:47.340
Like, there's obviously a lot more moving parts.
01:36:56.640
We have more petroleum, oil, and gas in Pennsylvania than they have.
01:37:01.280
Well, let's take Henry Kissinger at his word when he said that to control people, you've got to control their food.
01:37:06.820
And if you want to control countries, you've got to control their oil.
01:37:14.460
It has sought—ever since the 1950s, the State Department, Dwight D. Eisenhower, were salivating over the Arabian Peninsula,
01:37:22.740
which had the largest oil reserves in the entire earth, in the entire world.
01:37:28.600
And it was classified as the greatest material prize in world history.
01:37:32.600
That's from the State Department memo in the 1950s.
01:37:36.040
So, you know, and then policy planners came along after that,
01:37:39.900
and they instituted policies to where they could break up Arab-Indigenous nationalism in that region.
01:37:46.260
And that was all in an effort to control the oil.
01:37:51.860
We just need to control the oil, because if we have their hand on the spigot, then we can control these countries,
01:37:56.840
and we can—it's another lever of geopolitical strategic power.
01:38:01.160
But would you also agree that if there is a perceived threat, then a nation has a duty to, I guess you could say,
01:38:11.600
engage in conflict to prevent that threat from happening?
01:38:16.760
So the argument that I would make against you is some of the—some, not all—some of the interventionism that we do
01:38:23.400
is just like your argument that you think, like, oh, well, Israel's occupying Hamas, so Hamas is resistance.
01:38:28.060
You can say America is just a resistance force that's fighting another evil force that's going to be a threat to our sovereignty.
01:38:36.060
Where is America being threatened at its contiguous border?
01:38:41.300
Well, let's go with Operation Midnight Hammer, okay?
01:38:43.840
You have Iran. You have the Ayatollah, who's—I would say that it's pretty widely agreed upon that they don't view us very favorably,
01:38:54.120
and they are enriching uranium way past the point of civilian use, and they have these, you know, like these facilities that are, you know, I would say producing—
01:39:03.940
Brother, we're living in a nuclear age, and nuclear energy is just—it can be for civilian use.
01:39:10.080
It doesn't necessarily mean that's for nuclear weapons.
01:39:11.980
But it was at 20 percent or something like that?
01:39:13.600
The only—this is funny that I love that you want to bring up Iran, because there's only one country that is in violation of the Non-Proliferation Treaty, and that's Israel.
01:39:21.880
Do you think Iran's a resistance group, or is it a terrorist organization?
01:39:24.620
I would say Iran is a part of the subordinate aspect between the principal contradiction of imperial capitalism versus indigenous nationalism in the region of the Middle East.
01:39:36.940
The Iranians are posturing in the Western Hemisphere the way that the United States is posturing—
01:39:41.000
Is there any Islamic group that you think is a terrorist group?
01:39:43.900
I want to say all my Persian friends and Iranian friends are actually pretty laid back.
01:40:04.240
No, no, no, but this is something that people don't talk about.
01:40:08.300
The Mujahideen that became ISIS, that became the terror organization that we fought in the Middle East,
01:40:16.540
So that's when people say it was created by the Jews because there was some Jewish influence to, you know, do that.
01:40:23.520
We created the modern day or the origin of ISIS.
01:40:26.460
Fumbled regime changes are definitely historically accurate, and I think that that would qualify as one of them.
01:40:33.920
Can you imagine if Iran did a regime change against the United States?
01:40:37.860
You know how many successful regime changes there have been?
01:40:46.240
Well, Muammar Gaddafi, actually, his people loved him.
01:40:49.960
They had basically a very successful socialist country, and then when he tried to put his money on the African dinar,
01:40:55.780
you know, his petroleum, oil, and gas money to take it off the petrodollar.
01:41:00.880
And that regime change, actually, the quality of life has gotten much worse in Libya, and now they have slaves.
01:41:05.600
And there was a short time ago with Gaddafi, they didn't have slavery.
01:41:09.380
So, I mean, that regime change was worse for the people of Libya, probably better for us.
01:41:13.340
I think there's one theme playing out across the world, and that is when indigenous people living in wherever,
01:41:20.020
when they try to appropriate their land, their resources, and labor for themselves,
01:41:25.060
and it is antithetical to American capital accumulation, then they deserve to be either bombed, starved.
01:41:33.540
The whole array of tools that the United States has at their disposal will be met against these people.
01:41:40.760
And that's what we see play out across the world, and that's a consistent view.
01:41:45.420
What's your argument against Israel having a right, you know, I'm a two-state solution guy.
01:41:51.200
It sounds like you don't even want Israel to have a state.
01:41:57.100
Israel is a state that is predicated on the foundation of establishing Jewish supremacy.
01:42:02.360
So, right there, it's already baked into the equation of the formulation of the state of Israel is an apartheid state.
01:42:09.660
Yeah, but it's not like the Vatican, man, the Vatican, I mean, the Vatican, you know.
01:42:13.520
That's like saying Italy doesn't have a right to exist.
01:42:18.200
Like, I mean, I can see some arguments and criticisms of Israel, very fair.
01:42:21.960
But, like, I think they obviously just have the right to exist, so you don't even think that they deserve, like, a little piece of the plan.
01:42:27.760
I think that there should be one state, and I think that that should be a state where people have—this is crazy, right?
01:42:34.140
We're living in America, but I think that state should have equal rights for all people.
01:42:39.920
No, no, no, that's not, because Israel is an apartheid state, and that's what it's—legally speaking, the ICJ has concluded, it's an apartheid state, it's an instituting apartheid.
01:42:53.660
I think you could argue America is an apartheid state, you know, a little bit, so—
01:43:00.560
Sunni Muslim, prominent figure, served as minister without portfolio in the 2021 coalition government under the prime minister, Nafali Bennett.
01:43:08.000
There's Muslims—Iman Khatib, Ahmed Tibi, Amin Odi.
01:43:13.620
These are nice little anecdotes you can tell yourself.
01:43:15.620
Hold on, so if it's a Jewish supremacy state, you're talking about the modern nation state, so you would say that they are promoting Jewish supremacy, yet they are putting Muslims in their government.
01:43:29.700
They're allowed to have first-rate citizenship.
01:43:32.100
How does a nationalist state or a supremacist state have Muslims working in their government?
01:43:42.220
Their actions are not showing Jewish supremacy.
01:43:43.800
Well, the government's secular, technically, so the government is not religious, so that's why they're okay with it.
01:43:50.300
Yeah, but what I'm saying is the claim is that they're promoting Jewish supremacy.
01:43:56.700
It's a Jewish-scientist minority in a land that is ethnically Muslim and ethnically Palestinian.
01:44:02.840
Are you talking about the religion or the ethnicity?
01:44:06.900
Are you saying they're promoting Jewish supremacy?
01:44:19.280
Exactly, and I'm confident, and so you have to realize that I do believe that, and you might say Jewish supremacy is a negative thing.
01:44:26.740
I think it's a positive thing because I think they are very proud people.
01:44:33.540
Yeah, well, I mean, it's like there's a difference between, like, Jewish pride or national pride.
01:44:47.520
I don't think that makes it a supremacist state.
01:44:50.720
I think religious ideologies are not national territory.
01:44:53.660
I think that Nazi Germany was a supremacist state.
01:44:57.080
Yeah, they thought that they were better, and there was a specific.
01:44:59.860
Do you think that there were Jews on Hitler's council?
01:45:03.740
Like, there was, like, to say supremacy and then have a country that has a very diverse group of people throughout their government, throughout their population, it doesn't jive.
01:45:14.320
Well, actually, you bring up a good point because we talk about World War II a lot.
01:45:17.440
And you hear now this, you know, constantly talk about the Holocaust.
01:45:20.300
And then you have people like even me for being a little critical of Israel.
01:45:23.300
They might, you know, consider me a Nazi, even though I'm not.
01:45:26.060
But a friend of mine, Jake Shields, he has CTE, but they call him a Nazi.
01:45:30.460
But this is where it gets really frustrating for me.
01:45:33.740
Because if you actually look at World War II and you look at the thing called Operation Paperclip, that is where we actually took the top Nazi spies and some of the top Nazi soldiers.
01:45:42.200
And Wernher von Braun was a rocket scientist that used rockets to decimate Poland, was an actual Nazi, card-carrying, worked for Hitler.
01:45:51.420
He came over here and got to start the NASA program.
01:45:54.260
They said, oh, well, you know, we rehabilitated him.
01:46:03.220
And that's where I get frustrated because we actually helped the Nazis.
01:46:05.760
But then a guy like this critical of Israel is a Nazi.
01:46:08.740
So that's where it's like we use these WWII, World War II examples.
01:46:17.160
There's a Nazi collaborator that's putting the finger on the scale of a lot of the things that happen in this country, George Soros, right?
01:46:24.380
George Soros admitted that he helped the Nazis kill Jews, right?
01:46:31.060
But, again, going back to this talking point of Jewish supremacy, they are really bad at doing – look, they're really bad at genocide.
01:46:39.140
And they're really bad at doing – real quick, the Jews are really powerful and doing really good.
01:46:46.400
There's a disparity in their power dynamic on certain, you know, institutions.
01:46:53.260
Like, oh, they're really heavily into politics.
01:47:02.940
Asians are the same way, but nobody's bitching about the Asians.
01:47:06.440
Well, China – I would argue that China is a bigger threat than Israel for our way of life.
01:47:10.340
I would make that argument, too, and I think it's a much better argument.
01:47:13.020
But still, I mean, there are, you know, obviously negatives.
01:47:15.700
I think that people are – I think that there's a lot of jealousy and resentment over the success of the Jewish people despite the fact that there has been several extermination events against them historically.
01:47:24.000
And I think that that's where a lot of this leads.
01:47:26.820
Could it be because you – they tried to exterminate you and now you feel it's okay to try to exterminate somebody else?
01:47:33.740
I'm saying because the Jews were systematically exterminated by Nazis, maybe they feel like it's okay to do it to somebody else because they were a victim of it.
01:47:42.720
It's kind of like – and I'm not trying to compare it to pedophiles, but a lot of people that are pedophiles were actually sexually abused as a child.
01:47:49.020
So they feel like it's okay because they were victims of it.
01:47:51.320
So now Israel feels less bad because they were victims.
01:47:57.300
I think that argument would be great if they were doing it.
01:48:00.120
Like I said, there have been more bombs dropped than civilians have been killed.
01:48:04.100
So they're either really shitty at genocide or they're not committing a genocide, right?
01:48:09.120
Like if you use that word, right, John Spencer is a really good person to go to if you really want to understand the actual technical legal definition of the word genocide.
01:48:18.620
And he makes the argument against why Israel is – or makes the argument for why Israel is not committing a genocide.
01:48:24.360
And if you actually read his writings, he's making very valid points.
01:48:32.860
Nobody is saying that Ukrainians are trying to genocide Russians.
01:48:36.420
Nobody is saying that Russians are trying to genocide Ukrainians.
01:48:40.600
Well, but to your point there, you talk about how they dropped more bombs and people have been killed.
01:48:44.260
You know, that's also a money laundering scheme.
01:48:46.040
It's like when we go to the range and we shoot bullets that we're not actually using it.
01:48:50.860
They're going to keep using their stockpiles to get more weapons.
01:48:53.120
Also, a lot of those bombs just blow up buildings.
01:48:56.300
Maybe they don't kill a lot of civilians, but they blow up all their infrastructure.
01:49:03.060
Like you said earlier, where is Hamas' military bases?
01:49:11.220
They drop a dud on a building, get everybody the fuck out of there, and then they blow up the building.
01:49:15.940
Again, again, what you don't understand is that Israel has been bombing hospitals in Palestine since the 40s.
01:49:21.680
And Hamas has been hiding weapons in hospitals since the 40s.
01:49:24.340
No, they haven't, because Hamas was created in 1987.
01:49:33.900
Israel has been dropping bombs on hospitals since the 1940s.
01:49:40.300
Israel started a war with Lebanon by bombing a Palestinian children's hospital in 1982.
01:49:47.540
That was still five years before Hamas was created.
01:49:54.280
Why the fuck would they put their military bases in the one place where Israel loves to bomb?
01:50:04.220
You're making very valid arguments for Hamas's strategy while not acknowledging that they are also a terrorist organization.
01:50:12.420
They are literally embedding themselves in with civilians, using them as human shields.
01:50:17.180
They are literally saying, I'm going to dress like a civilian.
01:50:23.140
They don't have uniforms because they don't have clothes to wear.
01:50:29.660
They don't have enough clothes because of the illegal blockade on the Gaza Strip.
01:50:39.160
You're telling me that Hamas can't figure out how to dress the same way?
01:50:42.840
They don't have enough clothes to actually wear and distinguish themselves from civilians.
01:50:52.320
The only reason that they're dressing that way is because they can't figure out how to dress the same.
01:51:10.360
But guys, we have a few minutes left and we're going to definitely give you guys each a closing argument.
01:51:15.140
I want to say thank you guys for watching this.
01:51:20.060
He is going to be back, so you don't have to look at me and Tate's ugly faces.
01:51:26.680
Tate, I've learned a little, not a lot, but I've had a fun time.
01:51:31.940
And before we wrap things up, I kind of just want to play this clip to kind of get your opinion of this.
01:51:38.900
We don't have to watch the whole thing, but I thought this was very interesting.
01:51:42.680
Why won't your organization engage in peace talks with the Israelis?
01:52:04.280
That's kind of conversation between the sword and the neck, you mean.
01:52:07.760
Well, if there were no swords and no guns in the room, you could still talk.
01:52:15.800
I had never seen any talk between a colonialist case and a national liberation movement.
01:52:41.960
Yeah, and people usually fight for something and they stop fighting for something.
01:52:45.580
So you can't tell me even why should we speak about what?
01:52:54.340
Talk to stop fighting to stop the death and the misery, the destruction, the pain.
01:52:59.840
The misery and the destruction and the pain and the death of whom?
01:53:06.140
Of the Palestinian people who are uprooted, thrown in the camps, living in starvation, killed for 20 years, and forbidden to use even the name Palestinians.
01:53:22.500
So that's a pretty strong statement saying that, you know, they're willing to die for this.
01:53:38.620
And, you know, that's in the 1950s and it's still going on.
01:53:41.940
And I would say that it's even worse now than then.
01:53:44.920
So, I mean, can you be empathetic at all, though, when you see that guy, you know, being occupied by a foreign country?
01:53:52.860
Again, the predication of occupation, which is still debated, but...
01:54:00.360
What he's saying is, there is no point in talking, there is no point in trying to create peace.
01:54:06.620
What we are going to do is we are either going to die or win.
01:54:11.580
I think he argued that they know they're going to die.
01:54:13.800
I don't even think he argued that they're going to win.
01:54:14.500
Yeah, well, that's because their faith is what drives a lot of this conflict.
01:54:28.380
Islam is a convert or kill death cult, and they will constantly go, I will sacrifice my own people.
01:54:36.860
We will die because it's better than letting you win or something.
01:54:47.220
But I'm saying that guy is the same patriot that you are for America.
01:54:50.200
He's willing to die for his country because he sees somebody come in here.
01:54:54.400
You are a patriot, and yet you are defending a state that has attacked America in 1967.
01:55:03.900
I was wondering when we were going to get to the U.S.S. Liberty, the friendly fire situation,
01:55:08.660
which has been tried, which has been settled on.
01:55:11.280
Which both countries have sort of just been like, yep, we acknowledge what happened.
01:55:19.080
Look, fucking, it's just like the argument against, you know, like Ukraine dropping attackums on a beach in Russia.
01:55:31.460
Now, did Ukraine intentionally try to kill civilians on a beach in Russia?
01:55:40.940
Well, either way, when you're saying, okay, they can make a mistake.
01:55:47.100
We don't call it the worst atrocity that's ever happened in this war.
01:55:50.200
And the reason you don't do that is because Russia's the one who invaded Ukraine.
01:55:54.660
And they are fighting however they feel necessary, and the mistakes are going to be made.
01:55:58.700
So if you're arguing that there's never a mistake in a war and that wasn't a mistake on the U.S.S. Liberty, it was.
01:56:13.580
Yeah, this guy is extremely based, and he's saying there is no point in talking at this point because I want to remind you all that the Balfour Declaration was made in 1917,
01:56:24.200
and when it got—when Palestinians got wind of what was—they were going to be ethnically cleansed by the British Empire at the behest of the Zionist movement,
01:56:35.420
they did everything that they possibly could to plead to the British Empire to safeguard their rights as humans, as indigenous people, living on that land.
01:56:48.040
They formed seven separate Arab congresses in the interwar period between 1917 to 1939, and every time the British Empire would not lend their ear,
01:57:00.800
they wouldn't even make it—they wouldn't even allow them counsel.
01:57:08.180
In fact, they said that in order for us to listen to you, Palestinians, you must accept that we are coming in and taking your land,
01:57:16.160
and the very thing that they were vying for, which is just their human rights, they had to deny just to get the ear of the king, so to speak.
01:57:26.020
You know, Canophony, I think is how you say his name, they're at that point, you know, this has been going on for decades and decades and decades.
01:57:33.980
They realize that Israel does not want to talk.
01:57:36.360
It's a settler colony that's hell-bent on incremental expansionism, and so—
01:57:48.040
How about let's kind of start with a closing argument?
01:57:58.900
All right, my quick response is anybody that claims that Israel's an expansionist society is retarded.
01:58:11.660
I mean, but in their own land that they already have, they don't want to expand.
01:58:14.260
I agree with you that they deserve, you know, a piece of pie.
01:58:16.420
Like, they're not talking about—I mean, yeah, there's a few Jews that are talking about greater Israel, but nobody—
01:58:21.060
There's Benjamin Netanyahu, like, their most powerful Jews.
01:58:27.140
It's not a popular opinion that the nation's borders should be expanded.
01:58:33.480
But you were speaking earlier about the—sorry to go through the theology again, but like the old covenant in Genesis where he promises the land from the great river of Egypt to, what, the Euphrates?
01:58:46.900
And, I mean, look, I would make the argument that if they wanted to, they would kind of have a claim to it.
01:58:53.520
And every argument that's been made by Andrew can be pushed—can be turned back on him by saying that if you actually go the theological argument, then they are the original inhabitants, they are the indigenous people, and they are being occupied.
01:59:07.080
Therefore, everything they are doing is resistance against the Palestinians.
01:59:10.340
And you can literally tie their lineage all the way back way before 1948, way before 1967, way before 1920, way before 1900s, way before any of this conflict even started in the modern nation state.
01:59:25.080
But, yeah, but you know what? There's a lot of fucking people that believe in that Miracle Book.
01:59:30.120
Well, you know the Roman Empire, you know they've been around for a long time.
01:59:36.100
Yeah, so why is that any less valid than your argument?
01:59:41.280
Well, I was just citing that as, like, the pushback on the idea that they're not expansionists.
01:59:46.700
But, I mean, yeah, but has there been any legitimate, like, proposals to expand Israel over the past 80 years, however long it's been?
01:59:56.840
I think they've taken Syria land in the last couple of years.
02:00:02.020
I don't think they're going to win this one. I think they are incrementally trying to get bigger.
02:00:05.120
I would say the Muslim countries that have expanded over the past 80 years has been exponentially greater than Israel's expansion, even if—
02:00:14.380
The biggest one was the Ottoman Empire, and they got chopped down to size.
02:00:17.120
So if anything, like, the Muslim world has—and partially, actually mostly their own fault—has retracted in power globally.
02:00:24.400
Iran's really the—and the Gulf states, obviously.
02:00:27.000
But what I'm saying is, like, the Ottoman Empire was the big player, and then they've been chopped down to size.
02:00:31.720
Now there's not really a local power besides Iran.
02:00:36.140
All right, Rathbone, you've got about two or three minutes.
02:00:42.720
Israel is an apartheid state committing a genocide.
02:00:46.680
I think genocides are bad. I know that's my hot take.
02:00:51.060
But I don't think that countries that commit genocide and ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity deserve to have their state.
02:01:02.100
I think they should have their statehood revoked, according to Article 5 of the UN Charter.
02:01:08.140
I believe that the two-state solution is a euphemism for Israeli incremental expansionism.
02:01:14.680
The same thing goes for the peace process and the path to peace, which has been the predominant narrative, according to the United States and Israelis.
02:01:25.900
And I believe in one state named Palestine that has equal rights for all, regardless of religion, creed, ethnicity, just like supposedly how we believe the United States should be.
02:01:43.280
I don't believe that there should be this weird inbred death cult of people that claim that they are better than other ethnic or social groups based on their religious ideology.
02:02:11.380
So based on your own logic, okay, Palestine shouldn't exist.
02:02:16.380
Because you just said that any state that commits crimes against humanity should not exist.
02:02:23.980
My opponent here wasn't even able to acknowledge the fact that Hamas is a terrorist organization.
02:02:30.820
Anyone that can't do that shouldn't be taken seriously, right?
02:02:34.860
But again, if you just go back to one day where a group of people filmed themselves committing the worst atrocities we have seen since the fucking Holocaust,
02:02:43.760
then you lose this debate on its face just from that one point.
02:02:47.900
But you've also lost the debate on many other points, right?
02:02:49.960
You said that if genocide is bad—or you say genocide is bad, then you ignore the fact that the people that are living in the region that you think should be a full state
02:03:00.600
have fired thousands and thousands of rockets into another state trying to kill people based off of their ethnicity,
02:03:07.580
based off of their religion, based off of the fact that they are Israeli.
02:03:13.820
And just because they're bad at it doesn't mean that they are not doing it, okay?
02:03:18.680
There is a charge against people called attempted murder and murder, okay?
02:03:24.820
So they are attempting a genocide over and over and over again.
02:03:28.640
And again, if you say people that do that shouldn't exist, then by your own logic, they shouldn't exist.
02:03:36.320
And finally, you say that you want a place called Palestine that has equal rights.
02:03:40.960
There is a place called Palestine right now, and in that place, they don't have equal rights.
02:03:47.380
They will throw you off of a fucking rooftop if one is left, and that's if you're gay,
02:03:52.920
if you're a woman that has a fifth-grade reading level or higher,
02:03:56.920
if you are a Christian, if you are a Jew, if you are anything other than a Sharia-practicing Muslim.
02:04:03.920
So, you know, every argument that you've made in this entire debate can be leveled right against the people that you're defending.
02:04:12.240
So, yeah, on that note, I guess thanks for coming, but here's your L.
02:04:18.760
All right, guys, before we go, thank you guys for watching.
02:04:25.620
But before we go, shout out everybody, shout out your socials.
02:04:30.560
My YouTube page is at Rathbone with an extra E, and yeah, follow me there.
02:04:39.880
I know the theology debate got shortened pretty quickly, but if you want to go at it,
02:04:44.660
you can go pretty autistic on Twitter, so follow me there.
02:04:47.720
And then everybody needs to go follow Kellen, the money man over there.
02:04:57.780
Yeah, the Misfit Patriot on Twitter and Instagram, and you can follow me on TMP Uncensored on Rumble.
02:05:04.360
And I just want to say thank you to both of you guys.
02:05:08.000
Actually, I'm a little mad that there weren't more drama, more sparks lying.
02:05:11.720
You know, it was a little too respectful, but at the end of the day, you guys both did a great job.
02:05:15.180
And listen, this is a subject that is very challenging to talk about,
02:05:18.300
so I appreciate these guys coming here and being open and candid about subjects that we should talk about more.
