David, 8 00:00:32,657 --> 00:00:37,097 Speaker 2: Thanks for being here. Let's dive into the situation right 9 00:00:37,097 --> 00:00:41,337 Speaker 2: now of the multi day ceasefire hostage exchanges. Tell me 10 00:00:41,377 --> 00:00:44,937 Speaker 2: what's going on with this Israel Hamas war as we 11 00:00:44,977 --> 00:00:47,217 Speaker 2: sit here and we're as up to date as we 12 00:00:47,257 --> 00:00:47,497 Speaker 2: can be. 13 00:00:47,817 --> 00:00:53,097 Speaker 1: Well, you know, obviously following the horrendous, I mean unspeakable 14 00:00:53,217 --> 00:00:57,657 Speaker 1: attack of October seventh, that's been a very obvious and 15 00:00:57,737 --> 00:01:02,097 Speaker 1: clear shift in the Israeli mentality of the defense establishment, 16 00:01:02,177 --> 00:01:06,657 Speaker 1: certainly across the nation, where you know, after years of 17 00:01:06,937 --> 00:01:10,017 Speaker 1: thinking about dealing with some of its most dangerous enemy 18 00:01:10,257 --> 00:01:14,897 Speaker 1: in terms of containment, now it's all about preemption and 19 00:01:15,177 --> 00:01:19,297 Speaker 1: eliminating threats where they are. And obviously, first and foremost, 20 00:01:19,657 --> 00:01:22,857 Speaker 1: the nation has turned its attention to the Hamas threat 21 00:01:22,977 --> 00:01:26,777 Speaker 1: in the southwest of the country in Gaza, it took 22 00:01:26,817 --> 00:01:29,097 Speaker 1: a little bit of time to get the strategy together, 23 00:01:29,177 --> 00:01:32,537 Speaker 1: but they've gone in. Now they have Hamas against the 24 00:01:32,657 --> 00:01:37,617 Speaker 1: ropes in avery in a very tough spot, which is 25 00:01:37,777 --> 00:01:40,577 Speaker 1: exactly where they want them to be. And you know, 26 00:01:40,657 --> 00:01:43,577 Speaker 1: as a product of that, you know, Harmas has really 27 00:01:43,617 --> 00:01:46,737 Speaker 1: been begging for a ceasefire, if you will, and you 28 00:01:46,777 --> 00:01:50,097 Speaker 1: can see that by the terms in which they have 29 00:01:50,417 --> 00:01:53,217 Speaker 1: come to Israel, where they're now sort of taking the 30 00:01:53,257 --> 00:01:59,417 Speaker 1: opportunity to release prisoners at a slow drip, release hostages 31 00:01:59,457 --> 00:02:02,497 Speaker 1: sorry that they had seized from southern Israel, including a 32 00:02:02,497 --> 00:02:05,657 Speaker 1: lot of women and children, mothers and grandmothers and grandfathers, 33 00:02:06,657 --> 00:02:09,697 Speaker 1: in exchange for pauses in the fighting, which I think 34 00:02:09,697 --> 00:02:13,817 Speaker 1: at this age Hamas sees as being an existential matter. 35 00:02:14,857 --> 00:02:17,577 Speaker 1: So these Radis are concerned. You know, obviously, it's a 36 00:02:17,617 --> 00:02:21,497 Speaker 1: democratic country. They answer to the people, including the families 37 00:02:21,537 --> 00:02:25,097 Speaker 1: of the hostages, and even though this presents for them 38 00:02:25,137 --> 00:02:31,497 Speaker 1: a military setback, they're prepared to allow it in order 39 00:02:31,577 --> 00:02:34,457 Speaker 1: to be able to release as many of those innocent 40 00:02:34,497 --> 00:02:38,017 Speaker 1: civilians as possible. And I think we'll we'll see this 41 00:02:38,137 --> 00:02:41,937 Speaker 1: go for as long as Israel feels like it can 42 00:02:41,977 --> 00:02:45,657 Speaker 1: bring back civilians out of harm's way, and then we're 43 00:02:45,697 --> 00:02:49,017 Speaker 1: going to see all hell break loose again and the 44 00:02:49,017 --> 00:02:53,697 Speaker 1: final and hopefully complete demolition of Hamas as a governing 45 00:02:53,777 --> 00:02:54,937 Speaker 1: and military entity. 46 00:02:55,657 --> 00:02:59,977 Speaker 2: Is their unity in Israel behind net and Yahoo on 47 00:03:00,057 --> 00:03:05,217 Speaker 2: this mission to destroy Hamas as an entity in a 48 00:03:05,257 --> 00:03:08,457 Speaker 2: way that there similarly was broad unity in the US 49 00:03:08,497 --> 00:03:12,777 Speaker 2: after nine to eleven to destroy al Qaeda and finemin Laden. 50 00:03:12,937 --> 00:03:16,137 Speaker 1: Absolutely. I mean, look, there is a huge amount of 51 00:03:16,137 --> 00:03:19,257 Speaker 1: frustration with the government over how this was able to 52 00:03:19,297 --> 00:03:21,937 Speaker 1: happen in the first place, and the response and this 53 00:03:22,017 --> 00:03:25,817 Speaker 1: and that, and basically everybody who's in any kind of 54 00:03:25,857 --> 00:03:30,177 Speaker 1: position of leadership or punishment or leadership or responsibility is 55 00:03:30,297 --> 00:03:32,977 Speaker 1: going to be punished by the electorate. I mean, it's 56 00:03:32,977 --> 00:03:34,297 Speaker 1: hard to see a way out of this. In the 57 00:03:34,337 --> 00:03:37,057 Speaker 1: end of the day, the buck stops with Niahu and 58 00:03:37,057 --> 00:03:40,897 Speaker 1: the military establishment, and you know they will pay the 59 00:03:40,937 --> 00:03:45,417 Speaker 1: price for it eventually. In terms of the objectives of 60 00:03:45,457 --> 00:03:48,857 Speaker 1: this war, you know, it's it's it's hard to sort 61 00:03:48,897 --> 00:03:53,457 Speaker 1: of understate just how unified the country is. I mean, 62 00:03:53,497 --> 00:03:57,657 Speaker 1: you do see a lot of international calls for a 63 00:03:57,697 --> 00:04:02,177 Speaker 1: permanent ceasefire or you know, hopefully the ceasefire can be extended. 64 00:04:02,777 --> 00:04:04,977 Speaker 1: It's just not going to happen. You know, the folks 65 00:04:04,977 --> 00:04:07,897 Speaker 1: who are saying things like that, talking about you know, 66 00:04:07,897 --> 00:04:11,977 Speaker 1: I saw a BBC political correspondent talking about how Europreme 67 00:04:12,337 --> 00:04:14,457 Speaker 1: pressure is going to be so much on Israel they 68 00:04:14,457 --> 00:04:17,217 Speaker 1: won't be able to stay. The Israelis. Do not give 69 00:04:17,257 --> 00:04:22,057 Speaker 1: a fake what the Belgians or the Spanish or the 70 00:04:22,297 --> 00:04:25,377 Speaker 1: Irish chef to say. You know, this is about their security. 71 00:04:25,417 --> 00:04:30,697 Speaker 1: It's ex ebstential. And you know, the Hummus has really 72 00:04:30,737 --> 00:04:35,337 Speaker 1: sort of poked a sleeping bearness, sleeping giant. Any government 73 00:04:35,457 --> 00:04:39,697 Speaker 1: leader or military leader who wants to slow down, you know, 74 00:04:39,817 --> 00:04:45,417 Speaker 1: this goal of complete definition demolition of Hummus is going 75 00:04:45,417 --> 00:04:46,897 Speaker 1: to get handed out of office. 76 00:04:46,737 --> 00:04:48,497 Speaker 2: From our sponsor.

It's amazing patriotdefender dot com. How has it 103 00:06:06,937 --> 00:06:11,977 Speaker 2: gone so far in terms of the Israeli expectation of 104 00:06:12,097 --> 00:06:15,017 Speaker 2: the resistance they would get from Hamas and the speed 105 00:06:15,057 --> 00:06:16,857 Speaker 2: with which they would be able to roll up different 106 00:06:16,897 --> 00:06:20,537 Speaker 2: elements of that terrorist entity. Is this more or less 107 00:06:21,057 --> 00:06:24,177 Speaker 2: what was expected? Has it been tougher fighting? How would 108 00:06:24,217 --> 00:06:24,897 Speaker 2: you assess that? 109 00:06:25,337 --> 00:06:29,177 Speaker 1: Look, there were obviously major military failures that led to 110 00:06:29,217 --> 00:06:34,857 Speaker 1: the attack itself, but ever since that point, the Israelis 111 00:06:34,897 --> 00:06:39,857 Speaker 1: have fought like lions and brilliantly and have been incredibly effective. 112 00:06:40,257 --> 00:06:42,257 Speaker 1: You know, the last time they went into Gaza was 113 00:06:42,297 --> 00:06:46,257 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, and you know, casualties were a lot higher 114 00:06:46,857 --> 00:06:49,417 Speaker 1: than they than they would have liked. I mean, obviously 115 00:06:49,457 --> 00:06:51,777 Speaker 1: they don't want any casualties, but higher than they would 116 00:06:51,777 --> 00:06:54,257 Speaker 1: have liked and higher than they expected. See, the Israelis 117 00:06:54,297 --> 00:06:58,217 Speaker 1: have had about nine years to think and plan and 118 00:06:58,257 --> 00:07:03,217 Speaker 1: strategize and build technologies that are specifically designed for exactly 119 00:07:03,297 --> 00:07:08,217 Speaker 1: this theater of combat. And you can see now they've 120 00:07:08,297 --> 00:07:10,417 Speaker 1: learned a great deal and they put in who act 121 00:07:10,457 --> 00:07:12,537 Speaker 1: into into action. And no, I don't know how much 122 00:07:12,577 --> 00:07:14,817 Speaker 1: time we have. Obviously there's a lot you can go into. 123 00:07:14,857 --> 00:07:16,737 Speaker 1: But one example is and not a lot of people 124 00:07:16,777 --> 00:07:19,857 Speaker 1: know this. The Iron Dome missile defense system is quite 125 00:07:19,897 --> 00:07:26,417 Speaker 1: famous for intercepting every single that's rarely armored vehicle, including 126 00:07:26,777 --> 00:07:31,297 Speaker 1: the America of Ar four BARAQ tanks that came into 127 00:07:31,297 --> 00:07:35,817 Speaker 1: operation earlier this year and the NAMA APCs that are 128 00:07:36,097 --> 00:07:38,177 Speaker 1: the two main vehicles that Israel is operating in the 129 00:07:38,217 --> 00:07:40,737 Speaker 1: Gars of Strip. Every single one of them is fit 130 00:07:41,017 --> 00:07:45,017 Speaker 1: is fitted with a mini iron Dome system, you know, 131 00:07:45,057 --> 00:07:48,057 Speaker 1: the joint jointly developed with the Americans. Americans call it 132 00:07:48,097 --> 00:07:50,617 Speaker 1: the Trophy system, and it's on many ABRAMS tanks as well. 133 00:07:50,937 --> 00:07:54,337 Speaker 1: The Israelis called it the Windbreaker, but it intercepts RPGs 134 00:07:54,377 --> 00:07:57,777 Speaker 1: and other projectiles and that's saved you know, countless lives, 135 00:07:59,017 --> 00:08:01,057 Speaker 1: you know, in the Gars of Strip. But on top 136 00:08:01,097 --> 00:08:04,337 Speaker 1: of that, I mean just the most advanced technologies. You know, 137 00:08:04,377 --> 00:08:06,777 Speaker 1: some of these tanks have three hundred and sixty degree 138 00:08:07,057 --> 00:08:16,457 Speaker 1: digital ai a I inspired and optimized battlefield management systems. 139 00:08:16,817 --> 00:08:20,177 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, really smart, sophisticated stuff. And at 140 00:08:20,177 --> 00:08:22,617 Speaker 1: the same time, I think what the Israelis have realized 141 00:08:22,737 --> 00:08:25,057 Speaker 1: and in this they've sort of taken a page out 142 00:08:25,097 --> 00:08:28,177 Speaker 1: of Alexander the Great Book, and you know, They've used 143 00:08:28,257 --> 00:08:31,497 Speaker 1: quite a few battle strategies that were made popular by 144 00:08:31,537 --> 00:08:35,497 Speaker 1: Alexander the Great and had studied at West Point, at 145 00:08:35,537 --> 00:08:37,777 Speaker 1: San Jas and other military colleges. You know. One of 146 00:08:37,817 --> 00:08:41,057 Speaker 1: them was this idea divide Gaza into and go straight 147 00:08:41,057 --> 00:08:44,017 Speaker 1: for the command center. That was a a strategy Alexander 148 00:08:44,057 --> 00:08:47,297 Speaker 1: deployed against the Persians Derias. But the other one is 149 00:08:47,297 --> 00:08:50,497 Speaker 1: that they understand that Hamas needs to be on all 150 00:08:50,537 --> 00:08:53,537 Speaker 1: the time and they can take their time to a taxi. 151 00:08:53,537 --> 00:08:55,937 Speaker 1: You see, had this three week pause at the beginning 152 00:08:56,337 --> 00:08:59,217 Speaker 1: where Hamas needed to be on twenty four hours a day. 153 00:08:59,577 --> 00:09:02,857 Speaker 1: Israel was sort of resting its troops, you know, taking 154 00:09:02,857 --> 00:09:06,017 Speaker 1: the time to get its forces and battle strategy in place, 155 00:09:06,257 --> 00:09:09,897 Speaker 1: but at the same time depleting Hamas Amasa's reserves. So 156 00:09:10,337 --> 00:09:12,817 Speaker 1: now you know, because Israel has let a lot of 157 00:09:12,817 --> 00:09:16,537 Speaker 1: supplies in due to this deal, the hostage deal, so 158 00:09:16,937 --> 00:09:19,457 Speaker 1: you may see that they again sort of go back 159 00:09:19,497 --> 00:09:23,137 Speaker 1: to the siege, take their time to let Hamas reserves deplete, 160 00:09:23,617 --> 00:09:26,257 Speaker 1: and then you know, strike again with full force. You know, 161 00:09:26,297 --> 00:09:27,057 Speaker 1: shortly after. 162 00:09:26,937 --> 00:09:33,737 Speaker 2: That, David, when we look at the end goal here 163 00:09:34,257 --> 00:09:36,977 Speaker 2: in Gaza, what do what do you think that will 164 00:09:37,017 --> 00:09:41,737 Speaker 2: be meaning we know that success is the destruction of Hamas. 165 00:09:42,617 --> 00:09:46,377 Speaker 2: What comes after Hamas in Gaza? Who's in charge? Who 166 00:09:46,497 --> 00:09:49,337 Speaker 2: runs this place? Or what does it look like? What happens? 167 00:09:49,537 --> 00:09:51,297 Speaker 1: Look I had a piece about this in Thermals Street 168 00:09:51,337 --> 00:09:54,657 Speaker 1: Journal a couple of weeks ago. I was there in 169 00:09:54,697 --> 00:09:58,977 Speaker 1: two thousand and five when Israel with forcefully Withdrewid citizens 170 00:09:58,977 --> 00:10:01,297 Speaker 1: in the Gaza strip. I saw it first hand. I 171 00:10:01,337 --> 00:10:05,297 Speaker 1: heard what people were saying at the time. Israeli's wanted 172 00:10:05,337 --> 00:10:07,217 Speaker 1: to give it a shot. I mean, Israeli people are 173 00:10:07,257 --> 00:10:10,057 Speaker 1: desperate for peace, They're desperate to give piece of chance. 174 00:10:10,857 --> 00:10:12,817 Speaker 1: And you know, there was certainly a case to be 175 00:10:12,897 --> 00:10:15,297 Speaker 1: made that you know, this would create a new opportunity 176 00:10:15,337 --> 00:10:18,737 Speaker 1: for Palestinians. You know, they left a lot of economic infrastructure, 177 00:10:18,737 --> 00:10:23,257 Speaker 1: their agricultural infrastructure, greenhouses, you know, and it was all destroyed. 178 00:10:23,497 --> 00:10:25,297 Speaker 1: Her must took over within a couple of years. And 179 00:10:25,737 --> 00:10:28,697 Speaker 1: now this is the fifth war against Israel that they 180 00:10:28,777 --> 00:10:30,697 Speaker 1: that they've launched, you know, not to mention, you know, 181 00:10:30,817 --> 00:10:34,057 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of missiles. So the Israelis have learned 182 00:10:34,057 --> 00:10:36,857 Speaker 1: their lesson. You know, they cannot risk the possibility that 183 00:10:36,897 --> 00:10:41,697 Speaker 1: this goes back to what it had become. You know, 184 00:10:41,937 --> 00:10:44,417 Speaker 1: people have spoken about putting the pasting and authority in charge. 185 00:10:44,417 --> 00:10:47,977 Speaker 1: Well we tried that before and Hamas knocked them out 186 00:10:48,097 --> 00:10:51,097 Speaker 1: soon after. I don't think the areas are going to 187 00:10:51,177 --> 00:10:55,577 Speaker 1: rely on international forces. You know, international forces are pretty 188 00:10:55,617 --> 00:10:58,377 Speaker 1: much as good. You know, it's useful. You know, they're 189 00:10:58,417 --> 00:11:00,897 Speaker 1: useful until basically a gun is pointed at them and 190 00:11:00,937 --> 00:11:03,737 Speaker 1: then they run. We've seen that happen many times in 191 00:11:03,737 --> 00:11:06,257 Speaker 1: the past. So the only option, the way that I 192 00:11:06,297 --> 00:11:08,617 Speaker 1: see it now that Israelis consider is as rarely control 193 00:11:08,657 --> 00:11:10,817 Speaker 1: of the Strip, and you know they're not new to 194 00:11:10,857 --> 00:11:13,337 Speaker 1: it as well, control the Strip since ninety sixty seven. 195 00:11:13,977 --> 00:11:16,577 Speaker 1: Sometimes it was you know, they allowed certain degrees of 196 00:11:17,057 --> 00:11:20,897 Speaker 1: autonomy or self governance, you know, but non military and 197 00:11:20,897 --> 00:11:24,537 Speaker 1: obviously controlling the borders. But you know, I don't see 198 00:11:24,537 --> 00:11:26,577 Speaker 1: that the Israelis will allow anything else at this point. 199 00:11:26,617 --> 00:11:27,817 Speaker 1: You know, that's what you're going to see for the 200 00:11:27,817 --> 00:11:32,697 Speaker 1: foreseeable future, until some viable alternative becomes available. There certainly 201 00:11:32,697 --> 00:11:33,577 Speaker 1: isn't one right now. 202 00:11:34,377 --> 00:11:36,697 Speaker 2: David, I want to ask you about this Washington Post 203 00:11:36,737 --> 00:11:40,737 Speaker 2: report from over the weekend that Biden a few weeks 204 00:11:40,777 --> 00:11:45,057 Speaker 2: back was behind closed doors apologizing to Muslim leaders in 205 00:11:45,097 --> 00:11:46,937 Speaker 2: the US. So we're going to dive into the politics 206 00:11:46,937 --> 00:11:48,737 Speaker 2: of this. In just a second, we're speaking to Dovidafoon, 207 00:11:49,097 --> 00:11:51,577 Speaker 2: publisher of the New York Sun. Come back in a moment. 208 00:11:51,977 --> 00:11:54,777 Speaker 2: We're living in an artificial intelligence world. Now it's becoming 209 00:11:54,777 --> 00:11:56,857 Speaker 2: embedded in so many of the devices we use, the 210 00:11:56,857 --> 00:11:59,097 Speaker 2: websites and apps we visit. Look at all the attention 211 00:11:59,217 --> 00:12:01,457 Speaker 2: focused on the departure of the CEO of Open AI 212 00:12:01,977 --> 00:12:04,337 Speaker 2: and chat GBT over the past five days, and that 213 00:12:04,377 --> 00:12:06,737 Speaker 2: company has been in existence for just about a year. 214 00:12:07,137 --> 00:12:09,977 Speaker 2: AI is here to stay, with companies starting to really 215 00:12:10,057 --> 00:12:14,137 Speaker 2: benefit from their technology innovations, and so will investors. Tech 216 00:12:14,177 --> 00:12:16,937 Speaker 2: expert Colin Tedards believes this is the beginning of a 217 00:12:16,977 --> 00:12:20,337 Speaker 2: new era that could make you wealthy. When the market 218 00:12:20,417 --> 00:12:23,137 Speaker 2: hit rock bottom in November twenty twenty two, Colin recommended 219 00:12:23,177 --> 00:12:26,177 Speaker 2: shares of a top software company. This top software company 220 00:12:26,217 --> 00:12:28,857 Speaker 2: is up over two hundred percent since then. Anyone who 221 00:12:28,857 --> 00:12:30,857 Speaker 2: listened to Colin had a chance to more than double 222 00:12:30,897 --> 00:12:33,257 Speaker 2: their money in less than a year. But now he's 223 00:12:33,297 --> 00:12:35,857 Speaker 2: recommending a new AI company that he says could do 224 00:12:35,977 --> 00:12:38,017 Speaker 2: even better, and he says he's found a way for 225 00:12:38,057 --> 00:12:40,537 Speaker 2: you to profit from this new AI project right from 226 00:12:40,537 --> 00:12:43,777 Speaker 2: your brokerage account. The details are online find this website 227 00:12:44,057 --> 00:12:51,737 Speaker 2: newaiproject dot com. Newaiproject dot com paid for by Brownstone Research. 228 00:12:52,017 --> 00:12:54,897 Speaker 2: All right, David, why would Biden feel the need to 229 00:12:54,977 --> 00:12:59,657 Speaker 2: apologize to Muslim American leaders behind closed doors at the 230 00:12:59,697 --> 00:13:06,777 Speaker 2: White House for overly doubting Hamas based casualty figures. 231 00:13:07,057 --> 00:13:12,417 Speaker 1: Look, Biden's a politician, and a pretty slimmy one at that. 232 00:13:13,377 --> 00:13:16,297 Speaker 1: And this is what Simi. Politicians do. You know, they 233 00:13:16,297 --> 00:13:18,617 Speaker 1: speak out of the two sides of their mouths. They 234 00:13:18,657 --> 00:13:22,737 Speaker 1: say to their audiences what they think their audiences are 235 00:13:22,737 --> 00:13:26,097 Speaker 1: going to want to hear. And you know, I wouldn't 236 00:13:26,137 --> 00:13:28,457 Speaker 1: be surprised that this is exactly what is that play 237 00:13:28,457 --> 00:13:32,417 Speaker 1: over here. You know, the question of civilian casualties in 238 00:13:32,497 --> 00:13:36,697 Speaker 1: Garza is a big question because effectively it's the most 239 00:13:36,697 --> 00:13:41,497 Speaker 1: potent tool that Hamas has against Israel right now. You know, 240 00:13:41,657 --> 00:13:45,737 Speaker 1: claim that the damage is so enormous, so disapprotionate, that 241 00:13:45,737 --> 00:13:50,777 Speaker 1: the humanitarian disaster is so extreme beyond anything that any 242 00:13:51,217 --> 00:13:54,337 Speaker 1: Western country has ever done before to protect its citizens 243 00:13:54,857 --> 00:13:59,457 Speaker 1: and try and externally induce a degree of international pressure 244 00:13:59,577 --> 00:14:05,457 Speaker 1: that forces Israel into halting its campaign against Hamas and Gaza. 245 00:14:05,577 --> 00:14:08,737 Speaker 1: This is their strategy, it's their only game, it's their 246 00:14:08,817 --> 00:14:14,937 Speaker 1: only advantage. What's shocking is just how many supposedly you know, 247 00:14:16,697 --> 00:14:20,337 Speaker 1: let's say, clear thinking or or or or at least 248 00:14:22,017 --> 00:14:24,737 Speaker 1: you know, entities that are supposed to be responsible, are 249 00:14:24,817 --> 00:14:28,577 Speaker 1: just swallowing this Humas propaganda hook line and sinker. And 250 00:14:28,737 --> 00:14:32,857 Speaker 1: you're talking about yes, international world leaders from a lot 251 00:14:32,897 --> 00:14:36,977 Speaker 1: of different countries, international organizations, supposed to human rights groups, 252 00:14:37,017 --> 00:14:40,057 Speaker 1: age scroups, journalists, celebrities. I mean, god, you've got to 253 00:14:40,057 --> 00:14:43,057 Speaker 1: see what Hollywood has come up with. But in the 254 00:14:43,137 --> 00:14:47,777 Speaker 1: end of the day, this is just Hamas propaganda. There 255 00:14:47,897 --> 00:14:51,417 Speaker 1: is no and I mean none is zero, none at 256 00:14:51,457 --> 00:14:55,417 Speaker 1: all verification for these numbers. There's no source for these 257 00:14:55,497 --> 00:14:58,497 Speaker 1: numbers outside of Hamas. And you know, the New York 258 00:14:58,497 --> 00:15:01,817 Speaker 1: Times has put together this, you know, extensive article over 259 00:15:01,817 --> 00:15:04,337 Speaker 1: the weekend, which you know, uses all kinds of smoke 260 00:15:04,377 --> 00:15:07,537 Speaker 1: and mirrors to try and lead the reason reader to 261 00:15:07,577 --> 00:15:10,537 Speaker 1: believe that they have any more information. But of the day, 262 00:15:10,857 --> 00:15:14,897 Speaker 1: they just don't. And there are some very obvious questions 263 00:15:15,497 --> 00:15:20,497 Speaker 1: that need to be asked about these numbers, and nobody 264 00:15:20,617 --> 00:15:23,137 Speaker 1: nobody that I've seen in the Western press that the 265 00:15:23,137 --> 00:15:27,097 Speaker 1: big newspapers of record are asking these very obvious questions. 266 00:15:27,177 --> 00:15:29,377 Speaker 1: And you know, the question. I can go through some 267 00:15:29,457 --> 00:15:32,257 Speaker 1: of them if we have time for that, but the 268 00:15:32,337 --> 00:15:35,217 Speaker 1: question of why is a big one that a lot 269 00:15:35,257 --> 00:15:38,217 Speaker 1: of people are wondering. And you know, it explains why 270 00:15:38,777 --> 00:15:43,177 Speaker 1: distrust in news publications in America today is at historic loads, 271 00:15:43,217 --> 00:15:46,137 Speaker 1: and it's just being reinforced at a moment like this 272 00:15:46,257 --> 00:15:49,577 Speaker 1: when there are obvious truths, obvious questions that are being 273 00:15:49,617 --> 00:15:53,777 Speaker 1: so brazenly and blatantly ignored, you know, in the service 274 00:15:53,817 --> 00:15:56,977 Speaker 1: of a certain narrative, in a certain perspective, which those 275 00:15:57,097 --> 00:15:58,577 Speaker 1: publications of record favor. 276 00:15:58,737 --> 00:16:00,577 Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's what you mentioned, the so called 277 00:16:00,617 --> 00:16:04,097 Speaker 2: publications of record, dovid and for the left and the 278 00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:07,377 Speaker 2: political elite in this country, those would generally be New 279 00:16:07,457 --> 00:16:10,737 Speaker 2: York Times, Washington Post, and a handful of others. And 280 00:16:10,857 --> 00:16:15,257 Speaker 2: what we've seen is an effort on their on their 281 00:16:15,337 --> 00:16:18,657 Speaker 2: side to be I guess they would call it even 282 00:16:18,697 --> 00:16:23,537 Speaker 2: handed when it comes to believing, say, Israeli government information 283 00:16:23,697 --> 00:16:27,857 Speaker 2: and believing Hamas provided information. What's interesting to me is, 284 00:16:27,857 --> 00:16:30,897 Speaker 2: I remember during the Trump administration, the Washington Post The 285 00:16:30,937 --> 00:16:33,577 Speaker 2: New York Times, both from the newsroom as well as 286 00:16:33,617 --> 00:16:37,497 Speaker 2: the editorial page, openly saying that what we have to 287 00:16:37,537 --> 00:16:40,857 Speaker 2: be effectively anti Trump, because to be for the truth 288 00:16:41,017 --> 00:16:45,497 Speaker 2: is to be anti Trump. Well, I mean it would 289 00:16:45,537 --> 00:16:47,897 Speaker 2: seem that Hamas would certainly fall in the category of 290 00:16:48,177 --> 00:16:50,897 Speaker 2: maybe the truth isn't on their side either, folks. 291 00:16:52,457 --> 00:16:54,737 Speaker 1: Well, that's that's exactly right, and it's the reason why 292 00:16:54,937 --> 00:16:58,217 Speaker 1: the trust of these publications, you know, really that really 293 00:16:58,257 --> 00:17:00,337 Speaker 1: is in the toilet. I mean, there are so many 294 00:17:00,337 --> 00:17:03,177 Speaker 1: dis solvious questions. I mean, I must puts out numbers. 295 00:17:03,177 --> 00:17:07,017 Speaker 1: It makes no distinction between civilians and terrorists that would 296 00:17:07,097 --> 00:17:09,177 Speaker 1: kill I mean, is the New York Times even going 297 00:17:09,177 --> 00:17:12,817 Speaker 1: to ask, you know, how many of these deaths were 298 00:17:13,337 --> 00:17:17,857 Speaker 1: militants versus citizens, I mean, as civilians. Beyond that, I mean, 299 00:17:17,897 --> 00:17:22,577 Speaker 1: it's just you know, I interviewed some folks who were 300 00:17:22,617 --> 00:17:28,057 Speaker 1: involved in processing the bodies that were brought in, you know, 301 00:17:28,097 --> 00:17:30,697 Speaker 1: after the terror attack that I must committed against Israels 302 00:17:30,697 --> 00:17:33,217 Speaker 1: in southern Israel. They were brought to a central base 303 00:17:33,257 --> 00:17:36,177 Speaker 1: in Ramla Shura base it's called it's run by the 304 00:17:36,337 --> 00:17:39,217 Speaker 1: IDs chief Rabbinet, and you know, they had a morgue 305 00:17:39,257 --> 00:17:42,657 Speaker 1: that contained that space about two hundred bodies, so you know, 306 00:17:42,697 --> 00:17:45,977 Speaker 1: twelve hundred victims. They had to bring in ten shipping 307 00:17:46,017 --> 00:17:50,897 Speaker 1: containers shipping containers just to hold the bodies for processing. Right, 308 00:17:51,377 --> 00:17:55,617 Speaker 1: and here you have claims that ten, eleven, twelve times 309 00:17:55,657 --> 00:18:02,657 Speaker 1: the amount dead of victims of bodies you know, are 310 00:18:03,137 --> 00:18:06,377 Speaker 1: in Gaza, and Israel is responsible for it. Has anybody 311 00:18:06,457 --> 00:18:11,737 Speaker 1: seen has anybody seen a morgue where the bodies are stored? 312 00:18:11,737 --> 00:18:13,737 Speaker 1: Has anybody seen the graves? I mean, we've seen some 313 00:18:13,777 --> 00:18:17,177 Speaker 1: pictures of maybe a couple of dozen or one hundred 314 00:18:17,537 --> 00:18:19,497 Speaker 1: bodies being buried in a mass grave, But I mean, 315 00:18:19,817 --> 00:18:24,897 Speaker 1: these numbers are so enormous, you know, it's impossible that 316 00:18:24,977 --> 00:18:29,257 Speaker 1: if they exist, there shouldn't be some visualization of them 317 00:18:29,697 --> 00:18:33,377 Speaker 1: that the world press and international bodies or human rights 318 00:18:33,457 --> 00:18:36,297 Speaker 1: groups or the New York Times can gain access to. 319 00:18:36,377 --> 00:18:39,657 Speaker 1: And if they're not asking these questions, you know, it's 320 00:18:39,697 --> 00:18:41,457 Speaker 1: clear that they don't have an interest in the truth. 321 00:18:41,737 --> 00:18:44,217 Speaker 2: That would seem to be where we are with some 322 00:18:44,257 --> 00:18:49,777 Speaker 2: of these entities that they perhaps they view their obligation 323 00:18:49,977 --> 00:18:52,457 Speaker 2: to take the side of the so called victimized. In 324 00:18:52,457 --> 00:18:56,737 Speaker 2: the case of Palestinians, they somehow the victimization of is 325 00:18:56,817 --> 00:18:59,817 Speaker 2: really Jews doesn't factor into this equation for them, But 326 00:18:59,857 --> 00:19:04,897 Speaker 2: they're willing to excuse so much and even lie about 327 00:19:04,937 --> 00:19:07,537 Speaker 2: things in order to take aside in this Dovid speaking 328 00:19:07,577 --> 00:19:15,297 Speaker 2: of excusing abhorrent and the inexcusable atrocities the college campus 329 00:19:15,697 --> 00:19:17,937 Speaker 2: stuff that we've seen in terms of support for the Palestinians, 330 00:19:18,057 --> 00:19:21,337 Speaker 2: I want to ask your opinion on this, and basically 331 00:19:21,457 --> 00:19:24,257 Speaker 2: we'll come to this in a moment. Are you surprised 332 00:19:24,337 --> 00:19:27,257 Speaker 2: or did you expect this kind of a reaction to 333 00:19:27,297 --> 00:19:29,297 Speaker 2: what we see going on over there on US campuses. 334 00:19:29,337 --> 00:19:31,457 Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a moment.

But with the Palestinian issue, 370 00:21:03,257 --> 00:21:07,937 Speaker 2: I mean, after the mass terror attack against Israelis, for 371 00:21:08,097 --> 00:21:13,097 Speaker 2: college kids to be walking around so desperately supporting Hamas, 372 00:21:13,857 --> 00:21:17,577 Speaker 2: surprised when you see this expected and how did this happen? 373 00:21:18,257 --> 00:21:20,657 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not surprised. And you know, there are sort 374 00:21:20,657 --> 00:21:24,737 Speaker 1: of ideological underpinnings frankly that run you know, from from 375 00:21:24,777 --> 00:21:28,497 Speaker 1: Hamas in Gaza, you know, straight to the center of 376 00:21:28,537 --> 00:21:31,537 Speaker 1: our most elite college campuses. And you know, if you 377 00:21:31,617 --> 00:21:33,177 Speaker 1: have to sort of put a finger on it, you 378 00:21:33,217 --> 00:21:36,937 Speaker 1: know what it boils down to is, you know, whether 379 00:21:37,137 --> 00:21:40,257 Speaker 1: you sort of view the world through the lens of 380 00:21:40,977 --> 00:21:45,937 Speaker 1: victim victim hood victims and oppressors, of course, or you know, 381 00:21:45,977 --> 00:21:50,017 Speaker 1: through through the lens of of you know, responsibility, right, 382 00:21:50,177 --> 00:21:53,257 Speaker 1: the culture of victimhod and the culture of responsibility in 383 00:21:53,297 --> 00:21:57,257 Speaker 1: the end of the day, the American way, the Israeli whey, 384 00:21:57,417 --> 00:22:01,457 Speaker 1: certainly the Judeo Christian way is a culture of responsibility. 385 00:22:01,497 --> 00:22:06,977 Speaker 1: It means building a better future. The culture of victimhood, 386 00:22:07,177 --> 00:22:10,417 Speaker 1: which says, you know, the whole world is the divided 387 00:22:10,537 --> 00:22:14,617 Speaker 1: into victims and oppressors. It's obviously prelevant, im prevalent in 388 00:22:14,697 --> 00:22:21,057 Speaker 1: Palestinian society and also prevalent on American college campuses that 389 00:22:21,177 --> 00:22:24,137 Speaker 1: you know, you don't have responsibility for your own future. 390 00:22:24,177 --> 00:22:27,097 Speaker 1: You can't do anything about and you can't do anything 391 00:22:27,137 --> 00:22:30,097 Speaker 1: about it. It's just about finding somebody to blame and 392 00:22:30,097 --> 00:22:34,177 Speaker 1: and you know, tearing them down effectively. And it's interesting, 393 00:22:34,337 --> 00:22:36,377 Speaker 1: you know, to look at the dynamic. You know, we've 394 00:22:36,377 --> 00:22:39,057 Speaker 1: heard this from a lot of folks, even frankly from 395 00:22:39,577 --> 00:22:41,937 Speaker 1: I saw the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staffs 396 00:22:41,937 --> 00:22:45,697 Speaker 1: in the United States, this idea that terrorism is a 397 00:22:45,737 --> 00:22:50,177 Speaker 1: product of hardship, it's a product of persecution, it's a 398 00:22:50,177 --> 00:22:54,537 Speaker 1: product difficulty. I mean, you know this from from your background. 399 00:22:54,537 --> 00:22:58,017 Speaker 1: I mean, someone in Laden was a wealthy guy. You know, 400 00:22:58,497 --> 00:23:01,337 Speaker 1: he came from from an affluent everyone background. I mean, 401 00:23:02,097 --> 00:23:05,457 Speaker 1: and you know, if you compare sort of the response 402 00:23:05,577 --> 00:23:10,537 Speaker 1: that the Palestinians have had, you know, nationally, to the 403 00:23:10,577 --> 00:23:13,977 Speaker 1: hardship that they've been through to you know, the hardship 404 00:23:14,057 --> 00:23:17,337 Speaker 1: for example, that Jews who were sort of persecuted in 405 00:23:17,417 --> 00:23:21,097 Speaker 1: Arab countries and were forced into Israel. You know, it's 406 00:23:21,137 --> 00:23:24,297 Speaker 1: a very very different mentality. You know, I don't see 407 00:23:24,777 --> 00:23:28,337 Speaker 1: Holocaust survivors going and blowing themselves up, you know, massacring 408 00:23:28,377 --> 00:23:31,577 Speaker 1: or raping German women for example. You know, it's it's 409 00:23:31,577 --> 00:23:36,097 Speaker 1: a mindset and it runs, it's a cultural mindset and 410 00:23:36,137 --> 00:23:40,337 Speaker 1: it runs, you know, straight from Gaza, you know, to 411 00:23:40,697 --> 00:23:43,217 Speaker 1: the center of American college campuses. I don't want to 412 00:23:43,257 --> 00:23:48,257 Speaker 1: say that every individual Palestinian holds holds these views. I mean, 413 00:23:48,657 --> 00:23:51,497 Speaker 1: there are a lot of Palestinians who want a better future, who, 414 00:23:51,577 --> 00:23:53,337 Speaker 1: if you gave them a choice, would rather live in 415 00:23:53,377 --> 00:23:55,977 Speaker 1: Israel and become part of a free society. You're seeing 416 00:23:55,977 --> 00:23:58,657 Speaker 1: a ton of Palestinians now in the Gaza strip, now 417 00:23:58,697 --> 00:24:04,377 Speaker 1: that Hamasa's stranglehold on the strip is weakening. Talking about 418 00:24:04,457 --> 00:24:07,577 Speaker 1: you know, how terrible Hamas is. But you know, there 419 00:24:07,657 --> 00:24:12,457 Speaker 1: is certainly an overarching theme that is taught in the 420 00:24:12,497 --> 00:24:18,097 Speaker 1: Palestinian institutions that mirrors almost precisely the theme that is 421 00:24:18,177 --> 00:24:22,777 Speaker 1: taught you know, in sort of the woke you know, 422 00:24:22,857 --> 00:24:25,697 Speaker 1: anti racism. If you want to call it tradition on 423 00:24:25,777 --> 00:24:30,057 Speaker 1: American college campuses. So you know, in that sense there's 424 00:24:30,337 --> 00:24:32,657 Speaker 1: a very strong thread that ties them together and there 425 00:24:32,657 --> 00:24:36,137 Speaker 1: should be no surprises at all that you know. This 426 00:24:36,217 --> 00:24:39,977 Speaker 1: message is resonating, you know, from the middle of Gaza 427 00:24:40,057 --> 00:24:41,497 Speaker 1: to the middle of Harvard. 428 00:24:41,617 --> 00:24:45,697 Speaker 2: You know, David Ifoo and everybody. David's the publisher of 429 00:24:45,737 --> 00:24:48,417 Speaker 2: New York Sun. Go to n y s u N 430 00:24:48,537 --> 00:24:50,737 Speaker 2: dot com New York Sun. Peace up right now. If 431 00:24:50,737 --> 00:24:53,537 Speaker 2: this pause in the Gaza conflict is allowed to turn 432 00:24:53,577 --> 00:24:55,977 Speaker 2: into a durable ceasefire, it would be a decisive defeat 433 00:24:55,977 --> 00:24:58,417 Speaker 2: for Israel. That's by Conrad Black.
