WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.600 He presents it in the same way as Nick Fuentes does. They both believe Jews operate in a monolithic 2 00:00:07.600 --> 00:00:15.520 manner and that they have a singular investment in the continuation of the state of Israel. 3 00:00:15.520 --> 00:00:20.400 Of course, Jake Tapper also, simultaneous, who we say that's very anti-Semitic when Nick Fuentes 4 00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:29.920 says it, but he says it himself. I don't agree with that. No one is irredeemable. 5 00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:36.320 Everyone can change their attitudes on issues. And if Jews were a monolithic force, if this 6 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:44.640 organized jewelry was a real force to be reckoned with, then there wouldn't be so much investment 7 00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:55.760 in Zionist indoctrination for Western Jews. There just wouldn't be this much money being spent to 8 00:00:55.760 --> 00:01:02.000 ensure that every young American Jew that goes to Jewish camp or goes to Jewish school 9 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:08.560 was getting unlimited amounts of Zionist propaganda, Zionist indoctrination. 10 00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:18.480 And yes, this doesn't mean that there aren't otherwise liberal American Jews that lean into 11 00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:25.760 illiberal ethno-nationalism, crude, tribalistic ethno-nationalism when it comes to Israel. Of course, 12 00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:33.440 there are. Aren't you simultaneously doing the Mershheimer and Chomsky argument at the same time? 13 00:01:33.440 --> 00:01:39.920 Yes, I have always been a centrist when it comes to this issue because one, in my belief, 14 00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:50.080 doesn't exist without the other. Israel doesn't get to create this lobby. Israel doesn't 15 00:01:50.080 --> 00:01:59.040 get to create these Zionist institutions on U.S. soil without fair restrictions if Israel doesn't 16 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:07.120 play the role of a reliable ally during the Cold War against the rise of pan-Arabic nationalism. 17 00:02:09.920 --> 00:02:16.560 If Israel doesn't play the role of an American satellite for American imperialism and this resource 18 00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:24.560 rich region, Israel doesn't get to have this sophisticated propaganda apparatus working on U.S. 19 00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:33.520 soil as aggressively as it has for the past 80 years. It's that simple. 20 00:02:36.880 --> 00:02:42.320 In terms of and would never use the phrase Jewish lobby, there is no such thing as a Jewish lobby. 21 00:02:42.320 --> 00:02:46.320 There is an Israel lobby. That's the problem. Which has evangelical Christians in it. 22 00:02:46.320 --> 00:02:50.880 It has evangelical Christians and it has. Military industrial complex. It has all kinds, 23 00:02:50.880 --> 00:02:56.000 it has hundreds of organizations or parts of it. Many of them. The fear that I always have, 24 00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:05.440 the fear that I always have is this. It's far easier to teach Americans tribalism. 25 00:03:06.160 --> 00:03:13.040 It's far easier to get Americans on board on opposition to Israel through an anti-Semitic 26 00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:22.160 framework than it is to teach them about anti-imperialism, anti-fascism to have a morally consistent 27 00:03:22.160 --> 00:03:28.800 anti-genocide position. That's the problem. And if you don't actually develop this framework, 28 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:41.120 then you're not going to, you are never going to be able to fully comprehend why what America's 29 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:50.160 doing is is also wrong. That's the problem. America's the entire world, dude. No, for sure. 30 00:03:55.920 --> 00:04:01.120 For sure. What is this joint statement from the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Italy, 31 00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:04.720 Netherlands, Norway, and Canada? The Israeli government's decision to push construction tenders, 32 00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:11.120 the tenders for the E1 settlement project is unacceptable. Here we go. Oh man, you got grave concerns 33 00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:24.560 about the settlement project once again. Yes. Yes. Brother Islam has been around for 1400. What is 34 00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.320 this? They have been warring with the West for literally over a millennia. Terrorism is loaded 35 00:04:28.320 --> 00:04:33.680 in false term. The literally spreading of Islam look toilet paper. I'm a Muslim, by the way. 36 00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:38.960 Propaganda, literally opposite Jewish historians believe Islam is a reason Judaism survived today. 37 00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:41.520 I'm so confused as to what argument you're trying to make. 38 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:54.560 As an anti-Zionist Jewish person whose temple is reform and deeply Zionist, it's difficult to even 39 00:04:54.560 --> 00:05:01.520 approach trying to change their minds. No, I understand that. I understand that. My, I mean, look, 40 00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:08.960 to the anti-Zionist Jews in my community, you have a very tough job ahead of you. Well, you have to go 41 00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:18.560 back to your communities and try to get your elderly relatives to understand that this connection 42 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:24.880 between Israel and Zionism that is expressed over and over again through a lot of these Jewish 43 00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:31.600 institutions, okay, is teaching people the idea that Jews are monolithic and this is a dangerous, 44 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:39.200 it is a very, because look, it's a very dangerous mode of propaganda. And you want to know why? 45 00:05:39.200 --> 00:05:48.240 Because people don't fuck with Israel any longer. And if Jews in America keep putting 46 00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:54.560 this, this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone's 47 00:05:54.560 --> 00:06:00.320 going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel mind you, but against American Jews. 48 00:06:00.320 --> 00:06:11.360 Okay, we're teaching people the wrong lesson. At the end of the day, American Jews do not prioritize 49 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:18.160 Israel, but they do prioritize anti-Semitism. And that's precisely the reason why a lot of this 50 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:25.920 propaganda that is facing the American Jewish side from a lot of these Jewish outlets, right? 51 00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:32.960 We'll tie the two all the time. And we hear that from outlets like ZBS as well, right? 52 00:06:32.960 --> 00:06:38.560 When the host asked Angie Nixon, like, oh, well, don't you think we shouldn't stop giving 53 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:45.120 weapons to Israel at a time when anti-Semitism is exploding? Where's the connective tissue between 54 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:54.320 these two events? American Jews do care about anti-Semitism. It's understandable to care about anti-Semitism. 55 00:06:54.320 --> 00:07:00.640 They don't care about Israel. So how do you tie the two? You say, well, Israel is the only thing standing 56 00:07:00.640 --> 00:07:07.520 in the way of the next Holocaust happening. That's how you do it. That's how you do it. 57 00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:28.000 So every single time you have prominent Zionist Jews come out and be like, no, this is anti-Semitic, 58 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:34.560 to oppose Israel is anti-Semitic. You're teaching people that you're teaching people the trope of dual 59 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:42.000 loyalty. That's where you're teaching people. After you teach them that, you can't turn around and say, 60 00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:47.520 oh, well, this is dual loyalty. This is anti-Semitic because at a certain point, people are not going 61 00:07:47.520 --> 00:07:55.280 to give a shit. And we're already past that point. It's that simple. I read this not as an actual 62 00:07:55.280 --> 00:08:00.480 retreat from anti-Semitism charges, but enhanced preparation for pressing on Islamophobia, given the 63 00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:06.160 plausible rise of voting public's less beholden to the power of every arant anti-Semitism charge 64 00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:10.160 shipping away at the offices of anti-Semitism's ours. That's precisely what's going on. Yes, 65 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:14.880 they're not going to give up on claiming that people are anti-Semitic, of course. They're going to 66 00:08:14.880 --> 00:08:23.520 keep doing that because there's a lot of institutional value. There's a lot of institutions that will still 67 00:08:23.520 --> 00:08:35.600 take action once the anti-Semitism allegation is brought up. But what they're doing is the Israeli foreign 68 00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:44.320 ministry has recognized at this point that there is no way to defend Israel. So they'll take the 69 00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:49.440 second best thing, which is to foment Islamophobia, who's fighting against the hordes of Muslims, the 70 00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:55.600 dangerous Muslims that are destroying the Western world. The Jewish state is, of course, this is a 71 00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:03.440 battle between the Western forces and the scary Eastern hordes of Muslims who are barbaric. That's 72 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:11.280 the way they present it as. In Israel, you might not like them, but at least they're a bulwark against 73 00:09:11.280 --> 00:09:18.320 the scary hordes of Islam. And they'll take that. That's the next best thing for Israel at least. 74 00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:23.520 Knowing full well that they can press that Islamophobia button over and over again. 75 00:09:25.680 --> 00:09:35.440 Not realizing that those who oppose Islam in the West, those who consider Islam to be a dangerous 76 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:45.120 toxic force, a dangerous toxic force that's destroying Western civilization also find 77 00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:47.680 Jews to be a dangerous toxic force as well. 78 00:09:55.760 --> 00:10:08.400 Anyway. Yeah, Jeremy Moss, the Democratic nominee for U.S. House Michigan 11 says this 79 00:10:08.400 --> 00:10:15.680 is the person who took who won Haley Stevens's seat, by the way, says, Abdul is going to have to 80 00:10:15.680 --> 00:10:25.120 demonstrate some serious outreach to Oakland's Jewish community. I wonder what he asked to do. 81 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.520 To gain the support of Oakland County's Jewish community. 82 00:10:31.520 --> 00:10:37.840 Yeah, he has to drop his critiques of Israel. That's what it is. 83 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:48.000 Now, is Oakland County's Jewish community in unison making this demand of Abdullah Said? No, 84 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:57.520 of course not, but if there isn't opposition from Jewish figures in this community that are 85 00:10:57.520 --> 00:11:00.160 loud about the, the, the.
