00:00:00.000 So today I'd like to talk about a rather dark topic.
00:00:04.880 I wish it were happiness that we were talking about.
00:00:09.000 But Jew hatred is something that is now on the minds of many people,
00:00:13.580 but for someone like me who comes from Lebanon,
00:00:15.800 it's something that I grew up with, regrettably, as a child in Lebanon.
00:00:19.840 So the title of my talk is The Eternal Hatred of Jews from Beirut to the West.
00:00:24.280 And so first I'd like to give you a bit of a quick synopsis of what it was like growing up Jewish in Lebanon
00:00:31.460 and what you might expect to happen in the West if we don't get our acts straight.
00:00:38.280 So this is my childhood in Lebanon.
00:00:40.400 The left photo is what used to be called the Paris of the Middle East.
00:00:46.940 And the other one is exactly how I lived my life the last year of the Lebanese Civil War.
00:00:53.600 As a matter of fact, the need to play is so important that even in a civil war, people wish to play.
00:01:02.460 And so my parents would tell me, if you're going to go outside and play, don't pass this particular line
00:01:07.380 because then that puts you to the eyesight of the snipers who would blow your brains.
00:01:12.580 And so it becomes a cavalier reality.
00:01:14.940 Death is awaiting you at every corner.
00:01:17.360 Fortunately, we escaped Lebanon after the first year of the civil war.
00:01:20.840 But I want to give you a bit of a feel of what it was like growing up in progressive, tolerant Lebanon.
00:01:28.520 Lebanon was a lot more modern than many of the other Middle Eastern countries.
00:01:33.480 So the image that you have here is of Gamal Abdel Nasser, who was a pan-Arabist, the president of Egypt.
00:01:40.440 He passed away in 1970.
00:01:42.080 And I was about five years old at the time, almost six.
00:01:47.060 And I remember there was a procession coming by our house where everybody was protesting and screaming,
00:01:52.920 not unlike some of the stuff you're seeing now in the West.
00:01:55.580 And yet everybody was screaming, death to Jews, death to Jews.
00:01:58.980 And as a young boy, it wasn't clear to me why the death, the passing of the president of Egypt
00:02:05.200 would somehow result in triggering a reflex of death to Jews.
00:02:08.680 Now, on the right side, this has become a famous meme.
00:02:11.900 We have a guy here who is intimating those thoughts,
00:02:14.760 except that he's not giving us the courtesy of spelling the word Jews properly.
00:02:19.100 If you're going to commit genocide, for the love of God, at least know how to spell it.
00:02:24.200 So it's now death to all Jews.
00:02:27.260 And so I often refer to the evil Jews.
00:02:31.180 Oops, I skipped the page.
00:02:33.120 My brother was Lebanese champion for several years in Judo.
00:02:36.860 He wasn't ever allowed to compete.
00:02:39.000 This is actually literal archival newspaper clippings.
00:02:45.000 He wasn't allowed to compete for Lebanon in international tournaments.
00:02:49.740 And he was approached by some men.
00:02:51.560 This is before the Civil War.
00:02:53.020 Civil War started in 75.
00:02:54.740 He was approached by some men who told him,
00:02:56.640 it's time for you to retire.
00:02:58.260 It's not good for a Jewish guy to constantly be winning.
00:03:01.460 Or else, you know, maybe there might be an unfortunate accident that happens to you.
00:03:05.300 And he ended up moving to France before the Civil War.
00:03:09.740 Now, the irony is that in 1976, there was the Montreal Olympics.
00:03:14.400 We had already moved to Montreal.
00:03:16.340 And he ended up representing Lebanon in the Montreal Olympics.
00:03:20.800 So for much of his life, he wasn't good enough to don the Lebanese flag.
00:03:26.200 But apparently for the Montreal Olympics, it was okay to be Jewish for that point.
00:03:30.280 My parents, on one of their return trips to Lebanon, this was in 1980, were kidnapped by Fatah.
00:03:40.580 This is actually their photo.
00:03:43.020 They're both, thank God, still alive.
00:03:45.660 This is their marriage, their wedding photo from 1950.
00:03:50.120 You can argue as to whether I look more like my dad or my mom later.
00:03:54.000 So, anyways, that gives you a bit of a sense of what we've gone through.
00:04:00.920 Now, this next anecdote is really powerful.
00:04:05.020 In a sense, it's tragically poetic.
00:04:07.260 So let me read you a little passage from the parasitic mind.
00:04:12.360 This is from page six.
00:04:14.380 The next memory that I have is perhaps one of the most poignant ones of my life.
00:04:18.640 The flight captain declared that we were out of Lebanese airspace.
00:04:21.780 This is when we had just left and escaped Lebanon.
00:04:26.220 At which point, my mother took out a chain with a star of David,
00:04:29.740 or it might have been a chai, a Hebrew symbol for life or living,
00:04:33.340 placed it around my neck and said,
00:04:35.320 now you can wear this, not hide your identity and be proud of who you are.
00:04:39.340 Now, about a month and a half ago, I guess the date is there, October 21st,
00:04:44.060 I posted the following tweet.
00:04:47.520 And you'll see why I wrote, the star of David has come full circle.
00:04:50.700 I was just picked up by my wife who had taken our son to a soccer match.
00:04:55.220 When I got into the car, this is what my son said to me.
00:04:59.120 If you were wearing a Magin David, a star of David,
00:05:02.540 daddy, you'd be dead in reference to where he had just played the match.
00:05:06.860 This is in Montreal, Canada.
00:05:08.080 So, 1975, we leave Lebanon, and my mother puts a star of David around my neck.
00:05:16.660 2023, you better not wear a star of David in Montreal, Canada.
00:05:22.140 Not Raqqa, Syria, right?
00:05:24.280 Not Sana'a, Yemen.
00:05:26.160 Montreal, Canada.
00:05:27.520 And it's coming for you here.
00:05:28.900 Sorry, it keeps skipping.
00:05:35.600 For some of you that may or may not know this,
00:05:37.940 here are some stats about what has happened to Jews in the Middle East.
00:05:41.880 And the reason why I say this is because I'm giving you a bit of my personal history,
00:05:45.460 but then I'd like to at least, if I do a good job today,
00:05:49.360 warn you that it's not out of the realm of possibility
00:05:53.500 that these are the realities that you will see happening in the West.
00:05:56.980 It may take 50 years, it may take 100 years, but rest assured, it will happen.
00:06:00.920 So, if you look at the top numbers,
00:06:02.840 these are the estimated number of Jews that lived in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon,
00:06:10.540 where I hail from, Yemen, and Iraq.
00:06:13.340 And now you almost have none left.
00:06:15.860 There are a few thousand Jews that still live in Iran,
00:06:19.680 but again, they live as second-class citizens.
00:06:22.600 Sorry, guys.
00:06:27.220 Here is a survey done by the nonpartisan, supposedly nonpartisan Pew survey research in 2010,
00:06:38.460 where they asked people from different countries,
00:06:42.100 what are your views of Jews?
00:06:44.780 Favorable, unfavorable?
00:06:45.960 And if you look at the unfavorable, 95%, 97%, my country, 98%, Palestinian territory, 97%, and so on.
00:06:57.360 So, the question that then one must address is,
00:07:01.900 if you're allowing entry into the West of people who have endemic Jew hatred
00:07:09.100 at the range of 97% to 100% polled,
00:07:13.600 it doesn't take a fancy mathematical modeler to then say,
00:07:18.820 well, you're probably ensuring that you're going to increase Jew hatred in the West,
00:07:22.860 and that's exactly what you're seeing.
00:07:24.680 So, yes, some of the Jew hatred, and I'll get into it,
00:07:27.080 comes from some of the educational dynamics in universities,
00:07:31.180 but the largest contributor to Jew hatred is demographic change.
00:07:36.340 Demography is truly destiny.
00:07:37.940 If you let in people who hate Jews,
00:07:40.840 you're going to get exactly what one should expect.
00:07:47.060 Oh, okay.
00:07:50.100 This is Jew hatred of the United Nations.
00:07:52.600 If any of you don't know this organization, UN Watch,
00:07:55.960 they're truly a great group.
00:07:57.380 They do exactly that.
00:07:58.560 They watch some of the insanity at the United Nations.
00:08:01.860 This was from a few years ago, but the data remains exactly the same.
00:08:05.980 So, this was an analysis from 2006 to 2015,
00:08:11.400 just a little snippet of almost 10 years,
00:08:14.180 of the number of UN condemnations to Israel versus the rest of the world.
00:08:21.820 North Korea, Yemen, Syria, China, Sudan, and so on.
00:08:27.240 Israel had 62 condemnations.
00:08:30.640 The rest of humanity had 55.
00:08:34.580 So, Israel is truly the land of the evil Jews.
00:08:37.760 And, of course, you've probably all heard this idiom about, you know,
00:08:46.040 the canary in the coal mine.
00:08:48.060 Jew hatred is truly the canary in the coal mine when it comes to how healthy a society is, right?
00:08:55.560 And so, you know, we can sort of go la, la, la.
00:08:57.880 I don't want to hear it.
00:08:58.800 But the reality is, and I mentioned it yesterday at dinner with some lovely folks,
00:09:04.340 there's an expression in the Middle East,
00:09:07.460 first we come for the Saturday people, and then we continue with the Sunday people.
00:09:13.020 Well, the Saturday people are the Jews, the Sunday people are the Christians.
00:09:16.840 And again, I hate to preface this, but it's part of what you now have to do.
00:09:21.520 I realize that there are millions and millions of lovely Muslims.
00:09:26.180 I'm friends with many of them.
00:09:27.920 I have thousands of Muslim fans that write to me from all over the world.
00:09:32.100 That doesn't mean, though, that Islam is compatible with our Western values.
00:09:37.420 And so, if you're going to let in people in the millions, buckle up.
00:09:44.800 This is very, very, very frustrating.
00:09:51.520 So, what are the three sources of Jew hatred?
00:09:53.940 They could be split up into a taxonomy of three groups.
00:09:57.960 Of course, the academic left.
00:09:59.560 And so, many of you that have now sort of familiarized yourself with some of the endemic Jew hatred,
00:10:04.600 you've probably heard about, you know, the stuff that's happening at Harvard or at my alma mater, Cornell, or Columbia.
00:10:11.600 And that's because a lot of the teachings that happen in these courses,
00:10:14.880 and I'll have a slide about it in a second.
00:10:16.700 A lot of the teaching in these courses and universities are incredibly hostile to the Jews.
00:10:24.180 But they'll say, of course, they're only hostile to the Zionists.
00:10:27.800 But that's code word for Jews.
00:10:29.840 Then, of course, there's the ultra-right folks, the Jews won't replace us gang,
00:10:34.040 who are also very hateful towards the Jews, and, of course, Islam.
00:10:37.760 One of the things that was quite extraordinary after October 7th
00:10:41.980 is that when I would weigh in on the issues on social media,
00:10:47.240 I was getting the tsunami from all corners.
00:10:50.400 You know, historically, you know, I can count on one of these groups coming after me.
00:10:54.660 But here, it was an orgiastic fest of hate that was coming at me from each of these three groups.
00:11:01.580 So I'll drill down to some of that in a second.
00:11:04.240 This is the reality at my university.
00:11:06.460 This is an article that I wrote in the National Post.
00:11:09.260 First, Concordia University, where I'm housed, some of you may not be familiar with it,
00:11:14.860 it has been colloquially called for well over 20 years, Gaza University.
00:11:20.960 This is well before the current crisis.
00:11:25.200 Benjamin Netanyahu was not allowed to speak at Concordia University in 2002
00:11:31.320 when he came to speak at Concordia.
00:11:35.180 The amount of hostility is quite extraordinary.
00:11:38.860 I've had many students come up to me through the years at Concordia
00:11:42.580 and say, you know, I'm a Jewish student professor
00:11:45.060 and I never wear a kippah or a Star of David because it's too threatening.
00:11:50.040 And it's only gotten worse.
00:11:51.500 So I've had to go to campus with security.
00:11:55.080 In the 21st century, in Montreal, Canada,
00:11:58.900 a professor who's been Canadian since 1975
00:12:02.340 has to be accompanied by security.
00:12:05.260 Because outside the buildings, it's the global intifada chants
00:12:09.720 and the free, free Palestine and from the river to the sea.
00:12:13.820 The photo that you see there is actually called the Hall Building.
00:12:17.520 I've taught there many times.
00:12:19.060 This is the Montreal police.
00:12:21.000 This is not campus police.
00:12:22.540 This is armed Montreal police standing there
00:12:25.680 because of the dynamics of what's happening at Concordia.
00:12:29.140 And again, we can all pretend that it's not coming for you here,
00:12:33.400 but it will eventually come
00:12:34.940 because people simply never feel that they need to get engaged
00:12:41.000 until it personally affects them.
00:12:43.500 So even someone, I guess I'll mention his name.
00:12:46.660 It doesn't matter.
00:12:47.820 I'm delighted that Bill Ackman is getting involved
00:12:50.080 in a lot of these fights today.
00:12:51.440 But part of me says, where were you five years ago,
00:12:55.980 10 years ago, 15 years ago, 20 years ago,
00:12:58.260 when some of us were standing at the mountaintop alone
00:13:01.280 at great personal and professional risk saying,
00:13:05.020 hey, wake up.
00:13:06.220 But now it's Harvard.
00:13:07.660 It's his alma mater.
00:13:09.380 It's maybe his child.
00:13:12.280 And therefore he comes.
00:13:13.380 So I'm glad that he's taking action, better late than never.
00:13:16.620 But you need to think bigger than that.
00:13:18.740 It's going to come for you.
00:13:20.100 There's nothing clearer in life than that.
00:13:24.060 Here is just one of about a gazillion Jew hatred stuff that I see.
00:13:28.860 So this is on the left is a copy of my actual book.
00:13:33.020 And on the right, you see it's twisted,
00:13:35.460 kind of classic Nazi iconography.
00:13:38.000 And the title has changed.
00:13:39.960 The Sad Truth About the Talmud,
00:13:42.200 Eight Secrets for Enslaving the Goyim, the Non-Jews.
00:13:46.260 Best-selling author of The Parasitic Jew.
00:13:49.080 I mean, it's straight out of not.
00:13:51.180 And I mean, I get this so often that it's, I just, I brush it off my shoulders.
00:13:56.300 But that's where the canary in the coal mine is.
00:13:58.620 When people now feel completely comfortable and emboldened to put stuff up like this,
00:14:05.120 we're in trouble.
00:14:06.120 Of course, some of you have followed what's been happening at some of the prestigious American universities.
00:14:15.540 This is from my own university at Cornell.
00:14:18.180 Patrick Dye is now, was arrested by the FBI for levying all sorts of threats to Jewish students at Cornell.
00:14:24.420 Cornell, and the student, the professor on the right, was exhilarated and energized by the Hamas attack on October 7th.
00:14:34.560 Now, again, what does that say?
00:14:36.460 The fact that someone can get up, a professor at Cornell, while he's being taped,
00:14:42.140 and utter those words makes him feel that this is the right environment for me to be saying this.
00:14:47.540 People will support this kind of message.
00:14:50.900 And again, it's only a matter of demography.
00:14:56.060 I'll skip this slide because you probably all know about this.
00:15:00.300 But this next slide is a good one.
00:15:03.900 It shows that different disciplines are more or less likely to be parasitized by Jew hatred.
00:15:11.720 This is only at Columbia University.
00:15:13.720 But it shows you that if you're in business, where you are somewhat wedded to reality,
00:15:20.820 or you're in science or engineering, where, again, you...
00:15:24.160 For example, postmodernism, which is probably the...
00:15:27.560 Not probably.
00:15:28.280 It's definitely the most parasitic of all ideas.
00:15:31.420 Postmodernism purports that there are no objective truths.
00:15:34.000 Everything is relative.
00:15:36.040 Well, many of these parasitic ideas haven't made it to the business school or the engineering school
00:15:41.180 because you can't build economic models of consumer choice using postmodernist theory.
00:15:46.880 You can't build bridges using postmodernist physics.
00:15:50.680 And so by the very nature of some of these disciplines,
00:15:54.180 they are inoculated against some of the nonsense.
00:15:57.220 But regrettably, in the social sciences and the humanities,
00:16:00.520 look at the rightmost one.
00:16:01.820 This is where you can be parasitized by all kinds of ideological hate and so on.
00:16:06.800 Earlier, I said that in academia,
00:16:14.180 the reason why you have a lot of Jew hatred or, you know, Zionist hatred
00:16:18.220 is because of how courses are taught in political science and Near East studies.
00:16:23.440 I put this tweet up.
00:16:25.540 Let me read it for you.
00:16:26.760 It sounds as though I'm being sarcastic, but I'm actually being, you know, rather literal.
00:16:31.060 Let me provide you with the syllabus of every Near East studies course on Israel
00:16:36.880 at every Western university.
00:16:39.160 Prior to 1948, Jews and Arabs lived in beautiful peace and noble, inclusive Palestine.
00:16:45.340 There was zero Jew hatred in the Middle East.
00:16:47.320 As a matter of fact, Islam reveres the Jews.
00:16:50.220 Then a bunch of bloodthirsty white Zionists from Europe with zero claims to that land
00:16:54.440 created terrorism, you know, the King David Hotel,
00:17:00.200 and ethnically cleansed the noble Palestinians who had accepted the Jews and protected them.
00:17:05.200 Over the past 75 years, the Zionists have committed a genocide
00:17:09.080 on people who simply wish to live in peace.
00:17:12.640 The Zionists are modern-day Nazis, indistinguishable from those Nazis who exterminated the Jews,
00:17:19.440 albeit the Jews have greatly exaggerated the number of Jews killed.
00:17:22.500 So there, I've just, you don't need to get a political science degree.
00:17:25.620 I've just summarized it for you in that tweet.
00:17:28.080 So is it then any surprise that even your average, you know, innocent student who goes
00:17:33.880 to these universities will come out with a very distorted view of the dynamics of the
00:17:37.920 Middle East?
00:17:38.560 So look at the picture on the right.
00:17:41.300 By the way, people are cognitive misers, which is a fancy way of saying they don't want
00:17:45.340 to do a lot of thinking.
00:17:46.420 And that's why images are very powerful.
00:17:49.460 So look at the image on the right.
00:17:50.720 You've got Faris Odeh, who's a very sweet, gentle, innocent Palestinian with only a slingshot
00:17:58.120 and a rock, right?
00:17:59.660 And he's fighting the really, really evil Zionist tank.
00:18:05.100 That one image, if I don't know anything else, I too would be moved.
00:18:09.200 My God, look at the might of the Jews and look at this poor kid who is now going to face
00:18:13.880 his demise.
00:18:14.400 But of course, decent, honest people who have intellectual honesty can try to scratch beyond
00:18:20.480 these kinds of memes.
00:18:22.860 This is a slide that I put up shortly after, let me see, when was it?
00:18:31.160 It was November 2nd, so almost a month after the October 7th.
00:18:35.260 Israel is bombing Gaza today because one, Jews are inherently genocidal.
00:18:42.420 Two, Hamas slaughtered and raped, while the 1,400 now has been reduced to, I think, 1,200.
00:18:47.500 So 1,400 or 1,200 Israelis on October 7th, 163,119 people took this, you know, Twitter poll and
00:18:59.760 55% concluded that it's that the Jews are genocidal.
00:19:06.520 That, that's quite an arresting tweet.
00:19:11.280 Let me skip this one.
00:19:12.820 Now, I want to talk, I mean, Mary was very kind to, when she was introducing me, talk about
00:19:18.600 the parasitic mind.
00:19:19.860 So in the parasitic mind, I argue that in the same way that a wide range of animals can
00:19:24.780 be parasitized by actual brain worms, human beings, so here's some examples of these.
00:19:29.900 So if you look, for example, the spider wasp stings a much larger spider, then takes it zombified
00:19:36.900 into its burrow.
00:19:37.940 While the spider is in vivo, it lays eggs on it, and then the offspring eat it alive.
00:19:44.920 And political correctness, I argue, is akin to the spider wasp stings.
00:19:49.380 And the next one is Toxoplasma gondii.
00:19:52.640 When a mouse is infected with that particular brain parasite, it loses its innate fear of
00:19:59.380 mice, and it becomes sexually attracted to the cat's urine, which is not really a good mating
00:20:06.000 preference to hold if you're a mouse.
00:20:08.500 And there are many, many other such examples.
00:20:10.620 And so what I do in the book is I argue that human beings can be parasitized by ideological
00:20:15.520 parasites, by idea pathogens.
00:20:18.540 And so I trace where these ideological parasites come from, and then how we can inoculate ourselves
00:20:24.380 with a mind vaccine.
00:20:26.020 So let me give you a, so let, before we get to the bottom photos, let me just give you one
00:20:35.280 more example from the animal kingdom.
00:20:36.740 This is a wood cricket which abhors water, but when it is parasitized by the hairworm that
00:20:44.180 you see on the right, the hairworm needs the cricket to jump into the water in order for
00:20:51.060 it to complete its reproductive cycle.
00:20:52.640 So it's all, it alters its neuronal circuitry so that the parasitized cricket merrily jumps
00:21:00.440 into the water to its demise, but to the benefit of the parasite.
00:21:07.000 Well, Anna Epstein, Jewish Anna Epstein is exactly a phenomenon like the, the one that I just
00:21:15.200 mentioned above.
00:21:16.100 Does anybody know who Anna Epstein is?
00:21:17.620 Anna Epstein, I think she's from Boston College or Boston University, Daniel is moving his
00:21:24.080 head.
00:21:25.260 She was caught on tape, you know, ripping down all the photos of the children that were kidnapped.
00:21:36.400 She's, she's Jewish, right?
00:21:38.060 Or you've got queers for Palestine, right?
00:21:41.580 So if, if, if the way you present yourself to the world is through your queer identity and
00:21:48.060 you have two choices, you can support Tel Aviv, which is one of the most queer friendly places
00:21:53.740 in the world, short of San Francisco, Montreal, New York.
00:21:57.800 Tel Aviv is right up there.
00:21:58.920 Or you can go to a place where they have a 100% successful conversion therapy.
00:22:05.980 It's a gravity-based conversion therapy.
00:22:09.660 Oh, let me sign up for Queers for Palestine.
00:22:13.260 That's what a parasitized mind looks like.
00:22:15.540 Or as I like to call it, uh, chickens for KFC is not my meme, but geese, uh, I'm French
00:22:26.280 speaking, so I, I went into my, so geese for foie gras, and so that's exactly what you get
00:22:32.380 when you're parasitized.
00:22:35.100 Let's move on, what's happening.
00:22:38.440 This next one, I mentioned it yesterday at dinner, so apologies to the ones who've heard
00:22:42.540 it, uh, I'm going to read the whole thing because it is truly unbelievable in the truest
00:22:50.040 sense of the term, so let's read it together.
00:22:52.740 Several years ago, Tal Nitsan, then a, Jewish Tal Nitsan, then a doctoral student at Hebrew
00:22:59.480 University authored an award-winning paper, uh, where am I, that examined the incidence of
00:23:06.160 rape as perpetrated by the IDF forces on Palestinian women.
00:23:09.600 So she was keen on demonstrating that there is, you know, rampant, endemic rape of Palestinian
00:23:15.120 women.
00:23:16.000 Undoubtedly, well, I guess I say that right after.
00:23:17.880 Undoubtedly, the goal was to uncover an epidemic of rape to demonstrate how diabolical those
00:23:22.860 evil Jews are, truly were.
00:23:25.020 When no such empirical reality was found, not, not one, there wasn't one documented case,
00:23:30.420 it was concluded, now you're all sitting down, so the next part you might need to sit down
00:23:34.860 doesn't apply for you, that this was proof of the extent to which the Israelis dehumanized
00:23:42.160 the Palestinians.
00:23:43.980 They were so hateful that they did not even consider the Palestinian women worthy of rapes.
00:23:51.100 This is from the parasitic mind.
00:23:52.800 So if rapes are uncovered, or if none are discovered, the same conclusion is reached.
00:23:58.620 The Israelis are diabolical, all roads lead to self-flagellation and self-loathing.
00:24:04.560 It's the hallmark of a true progressive.
00:24:06.700 Now again, this is a doctoral student who's at Hebrew University who's Jewish, and that's
00:24:12.360 how parasitized she is.
00:24:14.440 So the fight is a very difficult one.
00:24:17.140 I've been trying to have it for 30 years.
00:24:20.100 Maybe I've had a bit of success, but we all have to get involved.
00:24:23.860 I won't go through all these examples, but the gentleman on the left, his name is Karsten
00:24:29.560 Nordahl-Hawken, who describes himself as a feminist, anti-racist ally.
00:24:37.680 He was, forgive me for saying this, we're all adults, he was sodomized.
00:24:42.660 He was raped by a Somali noble immigrant.
00:24:46.980 When that Somali immigrant served a very, very light sentence, and then he was going to be
00:24:53.400 deported, the victim here was very, very hurt.
00:24:58.320 He is so empathetic.
00:24:59.840 He is so noble.
00:25:01.500 He's so virtuous that he was hurt that this noble immigrant was going to be deported to
00:25:07.460 Somalia where he would lead a very difficult life.
00:25:10.600 So when your most basic survival instinct, when your emotional system that has evolved to solve
00:25:19.540 important evolutionary problems, completely misfires so that you now, you know, you feel
00:25:26.720 great hurt for your sodomizer, that's not good.
00:25:32.840 This is, this is, actually I just posted this pretty recently on Twitter because we were
00:25:38.360 talking about, you know, Jewish values.
00:25:41.080 You know, my mother, after I finished, I did an MBA, I did an undergrad in mathematics and
00:25:45.140 computer science, and then I did an MBA, and then I was going on straight for my PhD, but
00:25:49.260 one of my brothers was very interested in convincing me to work with him for a few years before
00:25:54.100 I went on to pursue my PhD.
00:25:56.520 And when my mother found this out, she took me to a side room in great panic and said,
00:26:01.620 I hear that you're thinking of taking a break from your studies.
00:26:04.360 I said, well, not really, no.
00:26:05.840 She goes, well, you know that if you were to leave now, you're going to great, you're going
00:26:10.260 to bring great shame to the family because everybody's going to know you as a school dropout.
00:26:14.680 So stop for a second and think about the level of excellence, right?
00:26:19.200 If I have a bachelor's degree in mathematics and an MBA, both of which are from a top university,
00:26:25.640 and I leave school, I am a dropout.
00:26:29.700 It's going to bring great shame.
00:26:32.160 Well, is it any surprise then that nearly 25% of Nobel Prizes are granted to Jews?
00:26:40.540 Because it is woven into the fabric of who we are to care about learning, to care about
00:26:47.280 education, and so on and so forth.
00:26:49.960 On the other hand, this is how many Nobel Prizes Islam has given us, four.
00:26:56.860 So it's a 125 to one ratio in terms of population, but this is the difference.
00:27:03.480 When I put this up, by the way, you should see the hate I received.
00:27:06.280 It's just, it's a fact, but I was spreading Islamophobia.
00:27:10.260 One more example of parasitic, and I'll try to then bring it all together, maybe one or
00:27:21.420 two more.
00:27:21.740 So in Britain, throughout Britain, there are these grooming gangs, grooming rape gangs throughout
00:27:30.920 Britain in many, many big cities, small cities.
00:27:33.560 And the perpetrators are Southeast Asians, which is a euphemism for Muslims.
00:27:43.060 In France, as I mentioned at yesterday's dinner, you don't say Muslim gangs, you say les jeunes.
00:27:49.200 Les jeunes means the youths.
00:27:51.620 In other words, you never should say what is the exact demographic group that's doing this,
00:27:56.340 because that would be hateful and that would marginalize them.
00:27:59.320 So in this case, this is from one town, one small town called Huddersfield.
00:28:05.500 And I won't read you all the names, but I'm going to read you some of the names.
00:28:09.740 Okay, you ready?
00:28:10.340 Now, I posted this up on Twitter, and I sarcastically said, I don't think I've got the brain power
00:28:32.460 to be able to identify what might be some common themes running through those guys.
00:28:36.540 Yes, could anybody help me?
00:28:39.200 Well, guess what?
00:28:39.980 Many people wrote back and gave me an answer, and it's not the answer that you thought.
00:28:45.560 You might think it is.
00:28:46.900 You know who's to blame for those gang rapes?
00:28:50.940 Jews.
00:28:51.700 Yes, of course it's the Jews.
00:28:53.660 Can anybody guess why it is the Jews?
00:28:57.640 Anybody want to take a shot?
00:29:01.180 No?
00:29:01.620 No, it's because it's the Jews that have promulgated the open society mechanisms
00:29:08.780 and the open immigration policies.
00:29:11.760 So even when three Mohammeds gang rape you, it's Mordechai that's to blame.
00:29:17.680 That's incredible.
00:29:19.520 That truly defies human dignity.
00:29:22.660 And this is from someone who grew up in the Middle East.
00:29:24.620 Here's another one.
00:29:30.520 This is actually covered quite extensively in the parasitic mind.
00:29:34.860 On the right you see 44,609 terrorist attacks in more than 70 countries since 9-11 alone
00:29:41.920 in the name of one religion.
00:29:43.960 I posted it on Twitter.
00:29:46.120 Who do you think 10% said that those stats were of the Jews?
00:29:51.020 There are 10% of people who think that 44,000 attacks around the world since 9-11 were committed by Jews.
00:29:59.920 So here are the list of the countries where it happened.
00:30:04.280 Here's what Western professors and the members of Intelligentsia told us.
00:30:08.600 It's got nothing, zero, to do with Islam.
00:30:11.780 Let me give you some of the reasons.
00:30:13.660 It's because of lone wolfism.
00:30:15.580 It's a man-made disaster.
00:30:17.620 It's because of violent video games.
00:30:20.000 It's because of lack of adequate exposure to art.
00:30:24.420 Who amongst us didn't decide because they weren't exposed to enough Picasso
00:30:28.680 that they were going to join ISIS to throw the gays off the rooftops?
00:30:32.900 It's a straight, direct causal effect from not viewing enough Chagall to then becoming an ISIS member.
00:30:40.780 It's due to beard bullying.
00:30:42.640 It's due to climate change.
00:30:44.440 Bill Nye, the science guy, explained to us that the Bataclan attack in Paris was very much related to climate change.
00:30:53.080 So when the guys quote the Quran and tell you exactly why they're doing it, that's not true.
00:30:58.800 It's because of solar panels.
00:31:00.940 Right?
00:31:01.220 So that's what happens when your mind is parasitized.
00:31:04.340 So that's why when you send your kids to Oberlin and Wellesley, and regrettably, since it's my alma mater, to Cornell,
00:31:11.200 you end up saying that it's due to climate change.
00:31:14.920 The battle is going to be a long one, folks.
00:31:18.360 All right.
00:31:19.020 Now, the only reason I put this one up is because why would you be surprised that people can't tell you that it's Islam that's the cause of those attacks
00:31:28.940 when it turns out that until 15 minutes ago, there had been 117 billion people who've ever lived on Earth,
00:31:38.280 each one of whom knew exactly what a male or female was.
00:31:42.760 But 15 minutes ago, it became very, very difficult to know this.
00:31:47.200 This is why our most, well, I shouldn't say our, I'm Canadian, but your most recent Supreme Court justice
00:31:53.980 did not have the epistemological confidence to proclaim what exactly is a woman.
00:32:01.680 So that's why I think the parasitic mind resonated so well with people,
00:32:05.740 because I offer a framework to explain how we can stray so far from reason and logic.
00:32:13.320 I'm almost done.
00:32:14.260 I'll skip this one, but let me just last two slides.
00:32:19.140 This is actually a tweet that I posted about two months ago that got quite a bit of, I think it got maybe 11 or 12 million views,
00:32:29.460 because people were shocked at how solemn I sounded in it.
00:32:33.800 So let me read it, but then end on hopefully a bit more of an optimistic note.
00:32:38.700 And I wrote the happy warrior because many people refer to me as the happy warrior,
00:32:42.540 because even when I'm dealing with these issues, I typically have a smile on my face and I joke around and I'm sarcastic.
00:32:48.180 So you are not going to like this tweet, so turn away if you are likely to be triggered.
00:32:52.460 Third, I'm a very optimistic person.
00:32:55.380 I'm a fighter for Western values and liberties.
00:32:57.640 I'm a dogged defender of science, reason, and common sense.
00:33:01.120 I must say, though, that I'm unsure that the West can recover from its multi-front civilizational suicide.
00:33:07.620 Yes, I've talked about these issues for decades and wrote a book about it,
00:33:11.240 but the past few weeks, this is since October 7th,
00:33:14.320 have crystallized the extent to which the problem has become intractable.
00:33:17.900 It will be a long and ultimately bloody demise and the West will be the first society in recorded history
00:33:23.960 to fully self-implode due to its parasitic ideological rapture.
00:33:30.240 It is a gargantuan Greek tragedy that will shape the future of humanity.
00:33:34.420 This is not hyperbole.
00:33:35.920 Your grandchildren will pay a very high price for your progressive arrogance rooted in the pursuit of unicornia
00:33:42.900 that only exists in the recesses of deeply flawed parasitized minds.
00:33:47.900 But let me end it on a slightly less negative note.
00:33:53.660 If you go to see your physician, you'd like for him or her to at least offer you some possible cure
00:33:58.900 because otherwise we might as well not get out of bed.
00:34:01.080 And so in another now viral tweet, I said,
00:34:04.720 here are some steps that we can take to save the West.
00:34:08.020 In order for the West to win the civilizational battle, it must,
00:34:11.780 one, proudly and unequivocally defend Western values,
00:34:15.480 two, reject cultural relativism and the unicornia vision of multiculturalism,
00:34:21.620 three, recommit to individual dignity over the celebration of collective identity politics.
00:34:27.460 Identity politics is what you get in Lebanon
00:34:30.140 because everything is viewed through the prism of which group you belong to.
00:34:34.360 Identity politics is what you get with Claudine Gay,
00:34:37.260 where she has the academic record of my socks and yet she becomes president of Harvard.
00:34:44.020 I literally have doctoral students who are substantially more accomplished than her.
00:34:49.140 At least they're no longer doctoral students but who were well on their way to being more accomplished than her.
00:34:54.140 She's the president of Harvard.
00:34:55.400 But, you know, she's a black woman so, you know, that trumps everything else.
00:34:58.420 Number four, recognize that all cultures are not equal.
00:35:02.880 That is a huge parasitic idea.
00:35:05.220 Because, again, it comes from a noble reflex.
00:35:07.360 You know, who are we to judge others?
00:35:09.080 Well, cultures that don't cut off the clitorises of five-year-old girls are superior to cultures that do.
00:35:15.320 And say that proudly.
00:35:16.400 There's nothing wrong in saying that.
00:35:17.620 And, again, it's a bit sad that it takes often immigrants such as myself who have sampled the buffet of other societies
00:35:26.940 to tell Westerners, don't take what you have for granted.
00:35:31.140 That's not, the West is an anomaly in recorded history.
00:35:36.520 Number five, recognize that all religious beliefs are not equally consistent with Western values.
00:35:42.020 Number six, recognize that all immigrants are not equally likely to assimilate and adopt Western values.
00:35:49.400 Number seven, recognize that immigrants who espouse intolerable values that seek to destroy our civilizations will be deported en masse.
00:35:59.200 Number eight, implement a rational immigration policy that recognizes the importance of cultural homophily.
00:36:05.640 Homophily means similarity, similar.
00:36:08.360 So, choosing immigrants who hail from cultures that possess similar values to those of the host nations.
00:36:14.360 And number nine, exhibit zero tolerance for seditious belief systems.
00:36:19.020 Such systems can be criminalized if they constitute an existential threat to our freedoms and liberties.
00:36:25.200 Thank you very much.
00:36:31.940 Thank you.
00:36:32.720 Thank you very much, Doctor.
00:36:33.760 I don't know if we have a lot of time for questions, but maybe we have.
00:36:37.920 We have time for maybe one or two.
00:36:40.220 Okay, sure.
00:36:40.700 I only really...
00:36:41.400 We have about ten minutes?
00:36:42.500 Oh, great.
00:36:43.160 We've got the...
00:36:44.780 I tried to keep it to 35.
00:36:46.240 It's wonderful.
00:36:47.140 No, it's wonderful.
00:36:47.880 We could listen to you speak all day.
00:36:49.880 I only have a single question for you because I'd like to get as many audience questions in as possible.
00:36:55.980 Is there any form of Islam, maybe Sufi Islam from Southeast Asia, that's tolerant, that could be promoted?
00:37:03.800 I mean, yes, but it's not true Islam, right?
00:37:07.780 So, for example, Mordecai might eat prosciutto, but that's not because he practices a more gentle Judaism.
00:37:16.380 It's because he's eating prosciutto despite the fact that kosher laws don't allow him to eat, right?
00:37:21.000 So, yes, Sufism is more gentle, but central doctrines of Islam could not be any more incompatible with Western values.
00:37:29.940 Now, again, many Muslims are lovely people despite of Islam, right?
00:37:34.400 So, it's not...
00:37:35.120 There are nice Muslims, mean Muslims.
00:37:37.060 There are nice Jews, mean Jews.
00:37:39.100 So, of course, there's a panoply of a normal distribution.
00:37:43.080 But Islam itself, you just have to go read it.
00:37:45.760 I mean, read the Quran, read the biography of Muhammad, the Sira, read the hadith, the sayings and deeds of Muhammad, and come to your conclusion.
00:37:55.620 One of the reasons, by the way, why it's very...
00:37:57.500 And I mentioned this at yesterday's dinner, why it's difficult for a lot of these Islamic apologists to take me on
00:38:03.640 is because they can't delegitimize me in the way they might John Smith from Iowa.
00:38:09.100 Because he's just an American.
00:38:10.820 He doesn't understand.
00:38:11.840 He doesn't speak Arabic.
00:38:13.240 He's not from the Middle East.
00:38:14.240 Well, all of those mechanisms to delegitimize him don't apply to me.
00:38:18.800 And so, you can all do your homework and come to your own conclusions.
00:38:21.860 Lots of questions from the audience.
00:38:23.860 Shoot.
00:38:24.640 Do you believe anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism are connected?
00:38:31.040 I mean, it's become banal now to say that it's perfectly reasonable to, of course, criticize Israel like any other nation.
00:38:36.860 They do good things.
00:38:37.660 They do bad things.
00:38:38.380 But many of the folks that couch it under, no, no, no, I love the Jews, but I hate Zionism, are truly just pure, regular Jew haters.
00:38:49.520 So, does that answer your question or not quite?
00:38:54.300 I think so.
00:38:55.000 I think so.
00:38:55.040 I think so.
00:38:56.580 Maybe I'll use the moderator privilege and ask another question.
00:39:00.760 In part of the list of how to save the West, you say we should bring in people who share our values.
00:39:07.440 How confident are you that our societies today in the quote-unquote West, but that could include Australia and other places, have the ability to inculcate that pride and basic human freedoms and tolerance that we all, I believe, grew up with?
00:39:24.780 Can we still do that?
00:39:26.020 I'm not very confident.
00:39:27.060 I really, by nature, by disposition, I'm an optimistic person, and that's why I put that very solemn tweet, is because, you know, it's unimaginable to me to see how completely unaware most people are of these realities, right?
00:39:44.720 Just to kind of go on a side note, Justin Trudeau has been our prime minister for eight years.
00:39:50.160 Sorry.
00:39:50.740 Right, exactly.
00:39:51.280 I was warning about him well before he became prime minister, and then now many people write to me and say, ah, I should have listened to you.
00:40:01.560 And the reasons they give why they originally voted for him are exactly the banal reasons that you would expect.
00:40:08.080 He legalized marijuana.
00:40:09.820 I like to smoke up.
00:40:11.560 You know, he's tall.
00:40:12.940 He has beautiful hair.
00:40:14.480 A lot of my female colleagues would post things on my personal Facebook page.
00:40:22.020 If a male colleague had posted this of female politicians, it would have been a hashtag MeToo moment.
00:40:28.880 But he was so dreamy.
00:40:29.920 He was so sexy.
00:40:30.800 He was so young.
00:40:31.940 He's so lovely.
00:40:32.720 He's so tall.
00:40:34.320 And so, you know, people are cognitive misers.
00:40:36.840 They don't take the time to learn about a topic.
00:40:40.120 So just get engaged.
00:40:41.020 Of course, I don't need to preach this to the people here, because by definition, if you're here, they are engaged.
00:40:46.080 But you're a very small minority in a sea of ignorance.
00:40:49.720 There are a lot of questions in the audience about the source of the Jew hatred, particularly in academia.
00:40:57.180 And where does it spring from?
00:40:59.760 And was it always there, or is this something new that we're just realizing today?
00:41:03.840 So it depends.
00:41:04.780 If it's the first one that I put academic left, that really is typically related to the Middle East dynamics.
00:41:11.300 But the Islamic Jew hatred is really doctrinal.
00:41:15.740 It's right there in the doctrines.
00:41:18.240 There's actually a gentleman.
00:41:19.680 His name is Bill Turner.
00:41:22.700 I can't remember his name.
00:41:23.400 He's a physicist by training who then set up a later, as a second career, set up Bill Warner.
00:41:30.040 Sorry, that's his name.
00:41:31.020 He set up a center called the Center for the Study of Political Islam.
00:41:34.060 And so he did a content analysis of the amount of Jew hatred in the Islamic holy books.
00:41:41.220 In comparison to Mein Kampf, there was more in the Islamic texts.
00:41:47.600 So the source of Jew hatred varies depending on the strain, but it's always the same.
00:41:53.120 It's a diabolical hatred that really defies human dignity.
00:41:57.900 So there's another question that just came in, and I'd like to read it word for word,
00:42:01.980 because I think it asks a question that predates that answer that you just gave.
00:42:06.480 Quote, I'm Jewish.
00:42:08.280 I've never wanted to kill or eradicate another race or religion.
00:42:11.600 I've never understood why Jews have been persecuted throughout history.
00:42:17.180 Why do you believe Jews have historically been vilified?
00:42:19.480 So it's a complicated answer.
00:42:21.000 I'll give a few.
00:42:22.620 It's a multifactorial mechanism.
00:42:26.180 So in psychology, there's a thing called locus of control.
00:42:29.520 So locus of control, internal locus of control would be I attribute things that happen to me internally.
00:42:35.400 External locus of control would be I attribute things that happen to me externally.
00:42:39.120 Most people do the following.
00:42:40.600 They attribute successes internally and failures externally, right?
00:42:44.840 So I did very well on the exam because I'm a smart guy.
00:42:47.760 I did very poorly on the exam because Professor Saad is an asshole, okay?
00:42:52.340 Now, what the Jews allow people to do is use them as an existential locus of control explanation for their failures, right?
00:43:01.780 So if I'm not doing well, there must be Jews behind the scene that are pulling the strings.
00:43:08.340 Yesterday, we were joking at dinner about some of these unbelievable conspiracy stories.
00:43:14.900 So there was an attack about 10, 12, 15 years ago in Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt, attack on tourists by sharks that caused a lot of damage to the local economy, the tourism economy in Egypt.
00:43:30.160 What did the Egyptian government come out with as the final cause of why that had transpired?
00:43:35.880 Anybody?
00:43:37.100 The Jews.
00:43:37.680 Yes, because they have a program where they train sharks, Zionist sharks, to attack people.
00:43:45.740 Now, you can go, and I mentioned this yesterday at dinner, you can go to a website that lists all of the conspiracy theories relating to animal attacks that are Jewish-based.
00:43:57.780 You know, pigeons, rats, dolphins, vultures, sharks, all are Jewish plots.
00:44:04.980 So it really, it's a hatred that is not unlike anything else.
00:44:09.900 And I don't mean to minimize, I mean, there's a lot of hate to go around, but there is something in Jew hatred that removes your humanity.
00:44:17.140 It's truly grotesque.
00:44:18.020 So this is the summit on foreign policy and global security.
00:44:22.120 We've talked about really the rot in our culture, in our society that has given rise to this anti-Semitism Jew hatred.
00:44:33.340 Relate this to our broader theme.
00:44:35.780 How does this impact our national security or what we do in the world?
00:44:40.860 Demography is destiny.
00:44:42.840 Demography is destiny.
00:44:44.920 Demography is destiny.
00:44:46.280 So, in other words, if you continue with the immigration pause, look at France.
00:44:52.940 Look at Marmo, Sweden.
00:44:54.660 Look at areas in England.
00:44:57.560 It's happening in the Netherlands, although now the guy who's coming in is not very friendly to Islam.
00:45:03.420 But look how long it took before someone, like with his language, arose to power.
00:45:10.300 So, in terms of global security, again, I'm not Islamophobic.
00:45:15.420 And as I said, I have more Muslim friends than most people will ever meet.
00:45:20.060 Islam cannot become too prevalent in a society because it's only then a matter of time before, inshallah, it takes over.
00:45:28.980 The United States was founded in an idea that we're all endowed with unalienable rights from God.
00:45:36.200 We were the first country that was founded on this idea, therefore we are distinctly different from France.
00:45:42.940 We're different from Canada.
00:45:44.600 We're different from Britain.
00:45:45.720 And our strength comes from accepting people from all over the world if they subscribe to our ideals.
00:45:54.700 So, how do you square the foundation of our country, the things that made us strong in our welcoming nature, the Statue of Liberty, in our harbor, in New York Harbor, with these threats and dangers that you've just outlined?
00:46:08.620 I wish there were a machine where you could put someone's heart through it to truly know whether they're willing to leave their ugly values at the door and come in.
00:46:19.140 There is no such machine.
00:46:20.480 But what we could certainly do is not be as tolerant to some of the hatred that then couches itself under, well, that's my religious liberty, right?
00:46:30.360 So, I can show you clips of imams in Montreal that preach every Friday at the mosque that is extraordinary.
00:46:39.140 Now, that's allowed under the premise of, but, you know, he's an imam, this is religious expression, blah, blah, blah.
00:46:44.780 Well, no, but we also know that in the First Amendment, you don't have a direct incitement to violence.
00:46:49.620 Well, when you stand up all day, God cursed the Jews, may God get rid of the Jews as part of your religion, maybe we don't need to tolerate that.
00:46:56.420 Right.
00:46:57.260 Well, I think it's extraordinary that the Steamboat Institute tackles these questions, and it's been extraordinary to have you on the stage and sharing your points of view.
00:47:06.100 Please join me in thanking the doctor for his comments.
00:47:10.540 Thank you so much.
