00:00:00.660 It's October 26, 2023, which makes this an opportune point to give a brief overview of where every country in the Middle East stands on the Israel-Palestine thing prior to the ground invasion of Gaza.
00:00:11.940 Now, I will give a trigger warning. If you are an Ivy League professor, be warned. This video will contain historical facts and logical consistency.
00:00:21.140 I know this makes you unsafe, so please turn down the volume and hide under your desk for the duration of this video to avoid any emotional harm.
00:00:28.940 Now, let's get going. We will start in Israel, where the key goal of the Israelis is not to be murdered by jihadis.
00:00:38.580 That is their number one goal. You have the Gaza Strip, which is run by Hamas, whose platform is global jihad, world domination,
00:00:45.540 and to kill every single Jew in the world to establish a caliphate. That is literally in their charter.
00:00:51.380 They also want to return Spain and Portugal to the Islamic Wafik because their lunatic Islamist terrorist.
00:00:56.060 Now, in 2005, Israel took literally every Jew out of Gaza. The IDF grabbed them out of their homes and said,
00:01:04.060 You know what? Without negotiation, we're just going to give you a state in Gaza.
00:01:07.740 You have a Palestine now. Have at it. There it is. We've created it. There's a Palestinian state.
00:01:12.060 Go have fun. Have an election. Who won the election? Hamas. What was their platform? Read their charter.
00:01:18.160 Their platform was global jihad and terrorism. They then won. And before they declared war in Israel, you had a bloody civil war.
00:01:26.120 Maybe one of the bloodiest points in Palestinian history. It's hard to know. What was bloodier?
00:01:30.820 Was it the internal war between Hamas and Fatah in Gaza?
00:01:34.380 Or was it the internal war between the Palestinians during the first Antifada when they murdered every single moderate in their country?
00:01:41.160 It's hard to know because no one counts Palestinian deaths when they're killed by other Palestinians because, again, no Jews, no news.
00:01:48.300 So, Gaza, I feel bad for whoever doesn't support Hamas there and wants peace, but the majority of it is run by terrorists who want to kill every single Jew in the world.
00:02:00.320 The general viewpoint of the Israelis and the Jewish people is, We don't want to be killed. We're not going to let it happen.
00:02:06.460 So, after October 7th, after Hamas had declared war in Israel 17 years ago, again, they were given freedom.
00:02:13.000 They were given a Judenrein land. No Jews, no settlers, no this, no occupation. Here, have at it. Have a state.
00:02:19.580 What did they do? They killed their own people. Then immediately declared war in Israel, started firing rockets at them.
00:02:24.680 Why is there a blockade? Yeah, because you can't...
00:02:27.600 Oh, your government declared war in a country and then they were put under blockade during a war.
00:02:31.360 Oh, how terrible. Right? But now, it's finally gotten to the point where Israel's like,
00:02:36.580 Okay, screw this. We're declaring war back on them, so the war's going to start.
00:02:40.760 Which means, guys, this is a war. And in a war, people are going to fight a war.
00:02:44.900 I know this is crazy to most people because whenever Israel's involved, everyone all of a sudden becomes an armchair general,
00:02:51.500 but an armchair general without a plan.
00:02:53.860 It's amusing and annoying, but it's just the way it is.
00:02:57.780 Now, there's a lot going on here. You got the Russians, you got the Chinese, you got Americans.
00:03:03.100 They all play into this. China doesn't really care about the Arab countries. Not at all.
00:03:07.480 But they are allied with them. China doesn't like Muslims too much because they put them all in concentration camps
00:03:12.880 and are trying to systematically destroy their culture because the CCP is evil.
00:03:16.820 But the Chinese mentality is essentially they don't turn their back on an old friend
00:03:21.500 and because the Arab states were aligned with the communists during the Cold War
00:03:24.300 and thus backed China's communist nationhood.
00:03:28.900 Until the Arab countries turn against China, China won't turn against them,
00:03:32.040 but they're not sending military assets to go and defend.
00:03:34.780 They're there to mess around in the Mediterranean, but they're not getting involved.
00:03:37.560 Same thing with the Russians.
00:03:38.460 Okay, the Russians have a history of using the Arab states as pawns.
00:03:41.820 Go back to the 1967 war. It was the USSR who kept feeding false information to Egypt and Syria
00:03:48.120 that Israel was preparing for war and about to attack imminently,
00:03:51.660 causing them to build up troops on the border and increase skirmishes
00:03:56.060 because the USSR goal at the time is they wanted to draw the Americans into another conflict
00:04:00.820 because they were bogged down in Vietnam.
00:04:02.960 This is very similar now, right?
00:04:04.680 Russia's bogged down in a war in Ukraine that's being supported by Western powers,
00:04:08.800 so they want to divert Western attention and Western focus to another front
00:04:12.160 so they can have an easier time in Ukraine.
00:04:14.660 The Russian warplanes are not coming in here because they don't care about the Arabs.
00:04:18.100 They really don't.
00:04:19.260 It's just Russia being Russia.
00:04:21.640 This brings us to America, which is run by someone who is currently asleep,
00:04:26.060 Joe Biden, who is an accolade of Barack Obama,
00:04:28.380 the worst foreign policy president of all time,
00:04:31.660 with a State Department filled with Iranian spies.
00:04:34.600 Mali, Sullivan, all these ding-dongs, they got to go.
00:04:42.920 Now, currently, the Islamic Republic of Iran, through their terrorist proxies,
00:04:46.220 we'll get into them in a second, are trying to kill Americans, firing missiles at them.
00:04:49.840 A great way to stop this is to try and kill the people who are trying to kill Americans.
00:04:54.000 The people firing rockets at America, just shoot them.
00:04:57.120 Blow them up.
00:04:57.980 That will stop them.
00:04:58.800 Remember Donald Trump?
00:04:59.880 Remember in 2020 when the IRGC had their proxies in Hezbollah and Hashem,
00:05:04.140 Shabbi, trying to break into the U.S. Embassy in Iraq.
00:05:07.140 And what did Donald Trump do?
00:05:08.380 He blew up Qasem Soleimani.
00:05:09.920 Great times.
00:05:10.820 What did the Iranians do after that?
00:05:12.420 They got scared and they stopped.
00:05:14.340 But Joe Biden is continuing to appease them and he thinks he can hug the terrorism away,
00:05:17.920 which means Americans are eventually going to die to the hands of IRGC proxies
00:05:21.720 because Joe Biden is asleep at the wheel.
00:05:24.800 How this will play out, we'll have to see once Americans start dying.
00:05:28.500 But I don't have any faith in the Biden administration's foreign policy cadre,
00:05:31.540 because, again, it has proven Iranian spies in it and they're not doing anything about that.
00:05:36.440 So, ugh.
00:05:37.600 All right.
00:05:38.580 Now, let's get into the major player here.
00:05:40.900 Most of the bad ideas in the world and bad things are coming from the Islamic Republic of Iran.
00:05:45.320 Not all of it.
00:05:46.420 Qatar.
00:05:48.460 Qatar, bad guys.
00:05:50.100 Turkey, too.
00:05:50.800 Pakistan funding the global jahadi movement.
00:05:52.760 But the primary bad actor here is the Islamic Republic of Iran and the IRGC,
00:05:57.040 the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, not the Iranian one.
00:05:59.760 The IRGC is very, very clear they are not Iranian.
00:06:02.900 Their goal is to spread the Islamic Revolution to the world and world domination.
00:06:06.940 Look at the manual of the Quds Force.
00:06:08.340 How do they do that?
00:06:09.120 By creating different terrorist proxies all over the world, using them to sow chaos,
00:06:12.840 and then leveraging that in their favor.
00:06:15.000 Actual IRGC doctrine.
00:06:16.740 So, major proxies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen.
00:06:20.640 Other parts of the world, too, but those are the important ones for now.
00:06:24.100 So, before we get to the Shia croissant, we'll go back there.
00:06:27.100 Let's just point out Yemen here, which is the Houthis.
00:06:30.360 Very, very big fans of Adolf Hitler.
00:06:33.480 They teach how Nazism in their curriculums because that's just what the Islamic Republic of Iran believes in.
00:06:40.260 They're currently firing missiles into Saudi Arabia.
00:06:43.020 Now, this is interesting.
00:06:44.560 You know, Iran, Saudi Arabia, not friends.
00:06:46.940 So, Saudi Arabia at the outset of October 7th, quiet.
00:06:50.180 October 8th, we respect Palestinians.
00:06:53.000 We must blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:06:54.500 But they've been shifting to say, oh, you know what?
00:06:56.480 Now, two-state solution on the 67 lines, which is a nonsense-nothing statement.
00:07:00.120 But that became it.
00:07:01.100 And then you started seeing people on Saudi Arabian TV actually going after the Hamas members coming on to comment and brazenly lie there.
00:07:09.700 Why?
00:07:10.280 Because Saudi Arabia isn't stupid.
00:07:12.620 They're not Ivy League professors.
00:07:14.560 They know things.
00:07:15.360 Again, sorry, Ivy League professors, but again, they're hiding under the desk, so it's all fine.
00:07:19.180 They know who their enemy is.
00:07:20.320 They know who's firing rockets at them.
00:07:22.320 They don't like the Islamic Republic of Iran, and they don't care about Palestinian civilians.
00:07:27.420 None of the Arab countries really do.
00:07:28.660 I mean, look at Palestinians, our best second-class citizens, usually third-class citizens in these countries.
00:07:34.500 Now, Saudi Arabia was going to, trying to normalize with Israel, and then they kind of took it off the table.
00:07:41.380 And now they're talking about, oh, once the war ends, normalization, we can go back to talking about a peace treaty.
00:07:47.520 What is the translation here?
00:07:49.180 The Middle East, this is very important, is a place where strength is strength.
00:07:53.020 Diversity is not your strength in the Middle East.
00:07:55.000 Strength is your strength.
00:07:55.900 People respect strength, and the stronger you are perceived to be, the more likely you are to gain allies in that region.
00:08:03.200 So the translation of what the Saudis are saying is,
00:08:06.820 if Israel crushes Hamas and destroys the militants and terrorists within Gaza, we will have peace with them.
00:08:15.240 That is what they are saying.
00:08:16.280 It's not about hugging and finding a solution.
00:08:19.080 That's not what they are saying.
00:08:20.400 That's what they'll say to the Westerners, because they know that we're stupid and we need some sort of nonsense pablum to keep us happy.
00:08:27.120 But the actual translation of what the Saudis are saying is,
00:08:30.040 crush Hamas, crush the spirit of resistance in Gaza, and then we can have peace.
00:08:34.400 That's actually what the Middle East is like.
00:08:37.000 Okay, so that's the big power players here.
00:08:38.900 Now, let's go into the Islamic Republic of Iran, and their main goal is to sort of create what you call the Shia Krasan.
00:08:45.400 So you have the Islamic Republic of Iran, that's Iraq, Syria, Lebanon.
00:08:48.640 That gives them a pathway to the Mediterranean Sea here.
00:08:51.960 This makes Lebanon the big threat, as it has a better supply route from the Islamic Republic of Iran than the Palestinian territories.
00:08:58.240 All right, let's go into it.
00:08:59.660 Iraq.
00:09:00.480 I don't know who the Prime Minister of Iraq is.
00:09:03.180 I have to look his name up every time, because I always forget it, because he's not important.
00:09:06.440 He's not important.
00:09:07.160 He doesn't matter.
00:09:08.080 He's less important than you are.
00:09:09.580 He's a straight puppet of the IRGC.
00:09:12.240 So, Iraq has fallen.
00:09:14.120 Oops, sorry about that.
00:09:15.840 Syria.
00:09:17.140 Bashar al-Assad is basically the 29th province of Iran.
00:09:20.400 He openly said, you know, he owes his seat to the IRGC, who saved his ass during the Civil War.
00:09:27.700 Interestingly enough, a lot of the Assadists and Syrian Civil War atrocity deniers are now using those same atrocities to smash Israel.
00:09:34.920 So, all the videos that were fake news over the last 10 years, because they showed Assad as a bloodthirsty monster.
00:09:40.400 Oh, all of a sudden, we can now use them to bash Israel.
00:09:43.360 Interesting enough.
00:09:44.760 Syria is also a great example of why Arab countries don't care about Palestinians.
00:09:49.060 One bit.
00:09:49.900 You ever hear what happened at the Palestinian refugee camp at Yarmouk?
00:09:53.020 We'll get into these refugee camps in a bit.
00:09:55.260 Bomb the hell.
00:09:55.960 Bomb hospitals.
00:09:56.720 Bomb this.
00:09:57.060 They don't...
00:09:57.420 Assad didn't call and say, hey, run away before we bomb you.
00:10:00.380 No.
00:10:02.520 Hey, you old Palestinians, you want human rights?
00:10:06.140 That was the response.
00:10:08.860 And again, no one cared, because no one cares about Palestinians unless they can blame Israel.
00:10:13.480 That's the thing.
00:10:14.180 Except for, you know, there was a few people there.
00:10:16.400 I'll give credit to the people who were talking about it.
00:10:18.540 But again, if there's a Palestinian human rights activist who didn't say anything about Yarmouk, don't care.
00:10:24.240 Now, the country I care the least about, in their opinions, is actually Lebanon.
00:10:29.360 So Lebanon's the big problem, because half the country is basically controlled by Hezbollah.
00:10:32.840 Half of that is anti-Hezbollah.
00:10:34.860 Remember, in 2019, there were, before COVID, massive uprisings in Iraq, Lebanon, and Iran.
00:10:40.380 This is bloody November, where people were pushing back against the Iranian influence in their country,
00:10:44.920 because under the Trump sanctions, they didn't have money to start bribing people into acquiescence.
00:10:50.680 So, there's a significant amount of social discontent in Lebanon against Hezbollah.
00:10:55.820 So I'll give the shout-out to the Lebanese people.
00:10:57.460 What I will not grant the Lebanese people is I will not, for one second,
00:11:01.260 entertain any Lebanese person who pretends to care about Palestinians.
00:11:05.320 Not for a second.
00:11:07.360 Until the 1990s, Palestinians weren't allowed to leave these refugee camps.
00:11:11.120 They weren't even second-class citizens.
00:11:12.580 They were, like, at best, third-class citizens, ultimately fourth-class citizens in Lebanon.
00:11:15.960 They were not allowed to leave the refugee camps.
00:11:18.060 They were not allowed to get work.
00:11:20.260 So, you want to talk about Palestinian human rights, Lebanese people?
00:11:23.040 How about you free your own Palestinians, and then we'll talk.
00:11:25.500 How about when Palestinian citizens in Lebanon have full civil and human rights,
00:11:30.700 then we can talk about how much you care about whatever.
00:11:33.580 But until now, right, your country's run by Hezbollah.
00:11:36.680 And a lot of them know it.
00:11:37.580 How did that explosion in Beirut happen?
00:11:39.540 Oh, who stores lots of ammunition under civilian buildings?
00:11:44.120 Hezbollah.
00:11:44.680 Where do they get their money?
00:11:45.680 Islamic Republic of Iran.
00:11:47.080 Ugh.
00:11:47.240 But, so, Lebanon, no one cares what you have to say.
00:11:51.340 No one.
00:11:52.040 Moving on to other countries where I don't care what they have to say, we have Jordan and Egypt.
00:11:56.980 Now, Jordan and Egypt have both reached peace with Israel through peace through strength.
00:12:01.520 And, again, the Jordanians got peace through Israel because they're like,
00:12:05.560 oh, we created the PLO, now they're attacking us.
00:12:08.000 Israel, can you help us get rid of Yasser Arafat and his goons?
00:12:10.380 And they were like, fine.
00:12:11.380 Remember Black September?
00:12:12.420 That was, you know, all the Arab countries bombing Palestinians to get them out of Jordan?
00:12:17.120 Pepper's Farm remembers.
00:12:17.980 So, when the Jordanians go, oh, there's a Palestinian, blah, blah, blah.
00:12:21.460 No one cares.
00:12:22.780 No one cares what you have to say.
00:12:25.840 You know the PLO and the Palestinian, all these government organizations.
00:12:30.020 You help create them.
00:12:31.020 You know they're terrorists.
00:12:32.220 You know they're bad for your country.
00:12:33.820 So, shut up.
00:12:36.160 Egypt is also interesting.
00:12:37.320 So, Egypt used to control the Gaza Strip.
00:12:39.220 Now, Egypt has a southern border with Gaza.
00:12:42.420 And it's closed off.
00:12:43.720 The Rafat border crossing closed off.
00:12:45.540 And they blew up tunnels.
00:12:46.780 There's like a 30-foot concrete wall that goes underground.
00:12:51.000 Preventing any Palestinians getting into Egypt.
00:12:53.360 Why?
00:12:54.280 Because Egypt is run by Sisi.
00:12:56.860 And his main opponent is the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:12:59.520 Who tried to take over the country after the fall of Hosni Mubarak.
00:13:02.540 You had Mohamed Morsi.
00:13:03.700 Who wanted to grade basically an Egyptian caliphate and jihad all day.
00:13:07.300 It was then Sisi who had to throw a coup to stop an Islamist dictatorship.
00:13:11.800 Make it a military dictatorship.
00:13:13.080 He knows his biggest enemy is the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:13:15.760 Hamas is the militant wing of the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:13:18.500 And a lot of the people in Gaza have been brainwashed by Muslim Brotherhood propaganda through the United Nations.
00:13:24.000 UNRWA.
00:13:24.820 Which is essentially an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:13:27.360 Now, Egypt and Jordan want zero Palestinians.
00:13:31.880 They will let zero Palestinians in because they see them as a significant security threat and sort of an internal cohesive societal threat because their Muslim Brotherhood beliefs.
00:13:43.900 Because the Muslim Brotherhood is the chief opponent of the monarchy and the military dictatorship in each of those countries.
00:13:50.140 So, that's important to know.
00:13:54.900 What does this all mean?
00:13:57.960 Well, going into the ground war, you're going to have a lot of rah, rah, rah, rah, rah.
00:14:03.780 But when the ground war happens, you're going to kind of see where everyone falls.
00:14:07.140 The big, big determinant will be what does Hezbollah do in Lebanon?
00:14:12.640 What do the IRGC proxies, Hashel Shabbi, Hezbollah, all of them, what do they do to American forces stationery?
00:14:20.380 Will Joe Biden wake up from his nap and try and protect American servicemen?
00:14:25.280 We don't know.
00:14:25.820 Well, all of these questions will probably be answered at the start of the ground war.
00:14:30.420 But there's one thing I want to sort of point out before we leave, which is these refugee camps and Palestinian refugees in the United Nations.
00:14:36.720 This is very key to understand the conflict.
00:14:39.940 Palestinian refugees aren't real refugees.
00:14:41.880 They're not under the same definition.
00:14:43.660 Oh, that's so terrible to say, blah, blah, blah.
00:14:45.740 No, it's the truth.
00:14:47.720 UNHCR, which handles global refugees, does not handle Palestinian refugees.
00:14:51.200 That's under UNRWA.
00:14:51.820 There is a separate UN group for Palestinian refugees.
00:14:56.080 And there's also a separate definition for Palestinian refugees versus real refugees.
00:15:00.740 A lot of my friends are refugees from the Islamic Republic of Iran, former political prisoners.
00:15:04.700 They were refugees.
00:15:05.960 They're now in Canada.
00:15:06.960 They're no longer refugees because they've been granted Canadian citizenship, so they lose their refugee status.
00:15:11.820 That's good because they're not refugees.
00:15:13.220 They're Canadians now.
00:15:14.420 Same thing in America and everywhere else.
00:15:16.240 But that's not how it works for Palestinians.
00:15:18.700 A Palestinian refugee is a refugee forever.
00:15:20.780 It's also hereditary.
00:15:22.340 The definition of a Palestinian refugee is anyone who had a relative living in the land of Israel for two years between 19, I think, 22 and 48.
00:15:29.580 The numbers might be a bit different, but it's essentially there.
00:15:33.460 So if your great-great-grandfather or whatever worked on a Zionist farm for three years and then left in 1935 to go to Jordan to meet a girl or whatever there,
00:15:45.300 the UNHCR, UNRWA, considers him a Palestinian refugee, right?
00:15:50.560 But not only that.
00:15:51.640 He could marry his wife and then he had kids.
00:15:53.720 What are those kids born in Jordan who never saw the war?
00:15:56.640 They are Palestinian refugees.
00:15:58.800 Now, one of those kids, hypothetically, moves to America.
00:16:02.500 He starts a new life there and he does pretty well for himself.
00:16:05.820 He starts a business and he becomes a millionaire.
00:16:08.240 I'm very happy for his success.
00:16:09.780 He marries a beautiful girl who's the love of his life and they have children.
00:16:14.480 What are those children?
00:16:15.400 Those children are called Palestinian refugees.
00:16:18.160 Those children then goes to marry the Queen of England.
00:16:21.480 He then becomes part of the British royal family.
00:16:23.680 What is he?
00:16:24.240 King of England?
00:16:25.160 Prince of England?
00:16:25.760 No, he's a Palestinian refugee.
00:16:27.700 This is literally that.
00:16:28.960 So when people say, oh, look at the displacement caused by Israel.
00:16:32.600 It's bullshit.
00:16:33.640 It's just people having babies in other parts of the world and then we call them Palestinian refugees.
00:16:38.500 It's insane.
00:16:39.980 Now, what's important to note here.
00:16:43.160 Palestinian refugees receive four times the amount of international funding that regular refugees do.
00:16:49.780 So when all these Arab countries have Palestinian refugee camps and they're not allowed to leave the refugee camps,
00:16:55.900 they must stay there, they must be Palestinians and they're born forever.
00:16:59.960 All those countries get tons and tons and tons of funding from us, stupid Westerners, to help the Palestinian refugees.
00:17:07.680 It's a money laundering scam, dummies.
00:17:11.240 That's what it is.
00:17:12.660 That's why all these Arab nations keep rah-rah-rah-ing.
00:17:15.320 Israel's a great boogeyman to use.
00:17:17.200 No one talks about their own internal human rights abuses.
00:17:19.740 And they make billions of dollars by keeping the Palestinians in literal open-air prisons forever, not allowing them to work, making sure they have babies and whatever.
00:17:29.760 And those babies are all very mad because they get tons and tons of money from stupid Westerners who are so afraid to call them out.
00:17:39.200 But this is the problem.
00:17:42.420 So, again, if you're a Palestinian and you have a problem with Israel and you have some complaints and my grandmother in 1937 taught an Israeli soldier and he...
00:17:51.480 Fine.
00:17:52.560 I'll talk to you.
00:17:53.840 We can have it out.
00:17:54.700 I will listen to a Palestinian.
00:17:56.280 I will not listen to anyone else in the Arab world complain about Israel.
00:17:59.100 I don't care about Lebanon.
00:18:00.120 I don't care about Syria.
00:18:00.800 I don't care about Jordan.
00:18:01.460 I don't care about Egypt.
00:18:02.200 I don't care about Saudi Arabia.
00:18:03.020 I don't care about Qatar, Iran.
00:18:04.220 I don't care what any of these people in these countries have to say because all of them abuse Palestinian civilians whenever they can.
00:18:12.880 So, unless you're a country that grants full human rights to Palestinians, I don't care what you have to say in this conflict because you're all massive hypocrites.
00:18:25.180 And you want to be pro-Palestinian?
00:18:28.580 How about you address some of the issues in your country pertaining to the Palestinians before you go around doing this?
00:18:32.920 So, this is why when you see the ground invasion start, a lot of these countries going rah, rah, rah, rah, rah, rah, rah, we're going to do this, we're going to do that.
00:18:40.320 They're probably going to shut up and do what they've been doing for years because none of them, none of them care 1% about any Palestinian.
