1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Newly released drone video shows Palestinian militants pretending to be

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 1: workers from the world's Central Kitchen. They travel in two cars,

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: one marked with the flag of the Humanitarian Organization before

4
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: they're hit by IDF airstrikes.

5
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: WCK in real time were able to verify that vehicle

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 2: was not connected to the organization in any way, which

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: means those tears were using that as a disguise for

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 2: their terror activity inside Gaza.

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: Israeli airstrikes targeted multiple areas of the enclave over the

10
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: past twenty four hours, killing dozens of Palestinian civilians.

11
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 3: Okay, so in spite of that, it's absolutely documented, undeniable

12
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 3: that Hamas guys were masquerading as food relief guys. NBR

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 3: considers it completely impossible that they would impersonate journalists, or

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 3: at least that's what they're saying in this sence, and

15
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: those views are supported practically to a person by the

16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 3: American left, a lot of the left in a lot

17
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,319
Speaker 3: of the Western world. What the hell is going on?

18
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 3: To quote Eli Lake, who's a brilliant writer in the West,

19
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 3: the politics of the Gaza War feature a strange marriage

20
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 3: between political Islam and the twenty first century Western left,

21
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 3: for instance, the Democratic Socialists of America. This is Mumdani's

22
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 3: crew simultaneously support making New York a national hub for

23
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 3: transgender medicine and want to globalize the Intifada.

24
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a good point.

25
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 3: It supp it supports the bleeding edge of social progressive

26
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 3: values while throwing its full support behind the fanatic fascists

27
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 3: who filmed their mass murder of Jews and probably posted

28
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 3: the videos to Telegram and Lake. In an absolutely fabulous

29
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: piece that will post I think you might get paywalled,

30
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 3: but maybe not. Talks about how the what's called the

31
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: red Green alliance among people who think about this sort

32
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: of thing, how it came up, and it really came up,

33
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: And yes.

34
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 4: He was red in who's green here?

35
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: Reds is and communists in green, the color of Hama

36
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: and radical Islam and various thank you for asking for

37
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: the clarification to hit for the room. Anyway, A lot

38
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 3: of this arose during Iran's Islamic Revolution nineteen seventy eight

39
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: and seventy nine. And he goes into and it's so

40
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: interesting the details of how Ayatola Komaney, who is in

41
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 3: exile in France, started giving all sorts of really carefully

42
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 3: controlled interviews to American and European media outlets, and how

43
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 3: they're on this pr campaign to convince the West that

44
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 3: he's a reasonable fellow. In fact, he's really for democracy,

45
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: and Lake is writing. Anybody who spent ten minutes looking

46
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 3: into Komane knew that he was a hardcore is Lomist monster.

47
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 3: You didn't even have to try to figure it out.

48
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: But the left of American journalism, in Western journalism, and

49
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 3: some folks like in the Carter administration became completely convinced

50
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 3: and touted in the face of all of this that no,

51
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 3: he was actually a really good guy. Richard Falk, a

52
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 3: Princeton professor of international law who met with Comane during

53
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 3: his exile outside of Paris. Andrew Young, Jimmy Carter's ambassador

54
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 3: to the United Nations, told reporters that the Iotola will

55
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 3: eventually be regarded as a saint like this fulk the

56
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 3: Princeton professor, And because people were saying there were some

57
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 3: on the right who said, look, this guy's a reactionary

58
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 3: and a terrorist. And he said, to suppose that Iotola

59
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: Comane is disassembling seems almost beyond belief. His political style

60
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: is to express his real views defiantly and without apology,

61
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 3: regardless of consequences. Blah blah blah. Thus the depiction of

62
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 3: him as a fanatical reactionary and the bearer of crude

63
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: prejudices seemed certainly and happily false. I know. Is also

64
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 3: encouraging is that as entourage of close advisors is uniformly

65
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 3: and composed of moderate progressive individuals.

66
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 4: I know you and Eli Lake are about to explain

67
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 4: to me why. But is it just as simple as

68
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 4: the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and my

69
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 4: enemy is me the United States. So somebody who doesn't

70
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 4: like us is good to.

71
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 3: I like, right there. There's more to it than that,

72
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: but yeah, the very short version of it is essentially,

73
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 3: wait a minute, you want to overthrow Western civilization. I

74
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 3: want to overthrow Western civilization. You want to impose Islamism,

75
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 3: but I want to impose Marxism. Well, I tell you what,

76
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 3: how about we work together and then when the civilization's overthrown,

77
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: will peacefully cooperate and divide the spoils. Then, of course,

78
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: like in every revolution, they kill each other as fast

79
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 3: as they can. But there's one more factor.

80
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 4: You got jihad in my queer studies. You got queer

81
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 4: studies in my jihad. Two great tastes. It tastes great together.

82
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 3: Oh that's beautiful anyway. So this brings us to the

83
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 3: connection between something I have been harping about for a

84
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: very long time, as has James Lindsay and other folks.

85
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 3: If there is one Western progressive who illuminates the emergence

86
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: of the Red Green alliance, it is the French philosopher

87
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 3: Michelle Foucaut. Well I've mentioned several times. In nineteen seventy eight,

88
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: fouc was absolutely the peak of his influence. He was

89
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 3: the postmodernist who is revolutionizing universities with his withering critique

90
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 3: of the Western Enlightenment and values that underpin modern liberalism.

91
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 3: Fucaut is literally anti Enlightenment, and he is the father

92
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 3: of all critical theory. Okay, And I think people have

93
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 3: a tendency to think, all right, Getty and Lindsay are

94
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 3: paranoid or whatever, or their conspiracy theorist. I had a

95
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: friend in high school who was Indian. His parents had

96
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 3: emigrated from India and they were Hindus, and in visiting

97
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 3: his house and hanging out with his family, so it

98
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 3: became clear to me that there were figures in Hinduism

99
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 3: that were known and revered to billions of people around

100
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 3: the world who I'd never heard of. I would suggest

101
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: to you my friends, and you are my friends. Fuko

102
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 3: is that for the Neomarxists, for those who would overthrow

103
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 3: Western civilization. He is a godhead to them. And you

104
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 3: don't know his name, but trust me what I tell you.

105
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 3: It's incredibly important that you understand. So, this guy was

106
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: incredibly influential in the universities in the seventies, and in

107
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 3: nineteen seventy eight he was commissioned by two Italian newspapers

108
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 3: to report on the Iranian Revolution. And like one of

109
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 3: those you know Left East you know Time magazine guys

110
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 3: who were visiting the Soviet Union and one of their

111
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: Potempkin villages back in the forties, say or fifties, he

112
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 3: couldn't stop gut gushing about how great the Itola was,

113
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: and he was going to get rid of the oppression

114
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: of Western politics and Zabadabadu. So, and this gets a

115
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 3: little complicated, but I'll get to the simple part. Fuco

116
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 3: was a major intellectual influence on the late Columbia University

117
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: of Professor Edward Sayd's Orientalism Now a postcolonial Ism study Bible,

118
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: which critiqued how Western imperial writers made Arabs, Muslims and

119
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 3: Easterners objects in their narratives and impose their own agenda

120
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: on their histories. Here is the great postmodernist celebrating Ayatola

121
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 3: Komany overthrowing the Western government, even though Komane would would

122
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: execute Fuco and his company the first chance they got.

123
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 3: But that was the birthplace of it. And until you

124
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 3: understand that postmodernism thing, you don't get critical theory. You

125
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: don't understand what DEI is and what it's trying to accomplish.

126
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: You don't understand queer theory, radical gender theory, all the

127
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 3: confused adolescent girls getting their healthy breasts removed because they're

128
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 3: momentarily confused by you know, adolescents and puberty and the

129
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,239
Speaker 3: rest of it. This is all straight back to Fuco

130
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 3: and critical theory.

131
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 4: Clearly, this theory is true in that it is happening.

132
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 4: I still don't get how you're not argued out of

133
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 4: that position very quickly. If somebody says to you, you

134
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 4: realize if you're in Iran, they would they would murder

135
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 4: you immediately. Well, yeah, so I guess I'd better pick

136
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 4: a different group to work with.

137
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 3: I mean, right, a different philosophy. Here's the thing, and

138
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 3: these people are smart. I mean they're insane, but they're smart.

139
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 3: They convince you completely of their premise that Western society

140
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 3: what was that phrase, uh, have made all other people

141
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 3: objects in their narratives and impose their own agenda on

142
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 3: their histories. The key philosophy of critical theory is that

143
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 3: there is no objective truth there.

144
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 4: Don't even seek it, it doesn't exist.

145
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 3: All there is is narratives, and narratives come from your culture,

146
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 3: and since Western culture is dominant, it has created a

147
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 3: narrative that says the Iyatola Komene is a monster, but

148
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: that's just because they're threatened by him, so they're racists,

149
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 3: they're othering him. And once you have that down to

150
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 3: your bones, then you can't be argued off of it

151
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,719
Speaker 3: on the basis of me saying they torture and then

152
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 3: kill anybody who's gay or transgender because I'm a Westerner

153
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 3: trying to lie to them using my narrative.

154
00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 4: So they don't believe that jihadis would murder gay people,

155
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 4: or they think jihadis only murdered gay people because of

156
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 4: the position we've put them in.

157
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, indirectly, Yeah, the first part, one hundred percent.

158
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 3: And or we have so dominated them and crushed their

159
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 3: spirits and oppressed them that they're acting out in ways

160
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 3: that they won't anymore when the enlightenment comes, when the

161
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 3: Marxist revolution comes. I mean, like excusing the crimes of

162
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 3: October seventh. You saw that directly. Look, they're under oppression.

163
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: What do you expect them to do?

164
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't.

165
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 3: Believe they raped and killed babies. No, they just fought

166
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: back against the oppressor self solution.

167
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 4: That's a scary thing to be up against. There's way

168
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 4: too many people to believe it.

169
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 3: Oh, and they're in our schools, folks, our elementary schools,

170
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 3: our high schools, and our colleges and our grad schools.

171
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 3: That is one of the dominant philosophies, if not the

172
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,079
Speaker 3: dominant philosophy in our educational complex. Which is why I'm

173
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 3: always saying it's the most important problem that faces America.

174
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 3: In China, it's the center street jihadism than man well,

175
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 3: post Marxism, but cultural Marxism, postmodernism, neo Marxism, whatever you

176
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 3: want to call it.

177
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 4: It's interesting because back then, when Mitt Romney is running

178
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 4: for president and after nine to eleven, jihadism did seem

179
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 4: like the biggest problem in the world. And it's a problem,

180
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 4: no doubt. But I'm more worried about Neo Marxism in

181
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 4: the foothold it's got in the United States and Western

182
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 4: culture than I am about ji Hotism.

183
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 3: By a lot, right, right, Yeah, my final word, and folks,

184
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 3: I apologize in advance. I'm gonna use a bad letter

185
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: here if you think I don't know that seems kind

186
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 3: of paranoid. These efing people wrote efing books, Their efing

187
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 3: names are on the efing spines, and they fing describe

188
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 3: precisely what they're efing going to do, and they're doing

189
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: it precisely as they effing do described. End of screen.

190
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 3: Troubling societies are brought down by their own decadence.

191
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 4: If you're interested in this stuff, man, go to YouTube
