Transcripts

Palestinian civilian death are a

necessary sacrifice if an Israeli Prime

Minister said that the whole world would

be talking about it it would be proof

that Israel has planned a genocide

against the Palestinians it would come

up in every discussion for years but

when is in war the leader of the

Palestinians in Gaza says it All Quiet

on the Western Front and the Arab Muslim

front now sino's statement is very

interesting for a number of reasons and

as you will see it was not a slip of the

tongue let's unpack it and see how it

resonate with Hamas and the Palestinians

the first thing to notice is how silent

the pro Palestinians in the west are now

I'm not surprised prop Palestinians

won't say anything if they can't lay the

blame at Israel's door but I've

mentioned that so many times before

let's dig into the real interesting

aspects here first not only are the pro

Palestinians quiet but the Palestinians

themselves are also quiet can you

imagine your leader saying that civilian

death in your country are a necessary

sacrifice and it just passes without

protest and the crazy reason that his

words didn't meet with opposition is

that the Palestinians agree with it they

agree with it and they use use it let me

explain to be able to understand this

you are going to need to make a big

effort because it will contradict

everything that you as a westner believe

in I do understand it because I don't

want to brag but I have special powers I

can listen to the other side I can

listen to other people it is not always

easy because we all have our own voice

in our head which is great and then

there are the voices of others which are

often disappointing the voice in my head

says let's aim for peace compromise

cooperation but I hear different ideas

when I listen to the other side to the

Arabs of Palestine I will tell you what

I hear in 1947 so before the settlements

and before the nakba kawaki one of the

leaders of the Arabs in Palestine said

the only option is the annihilation of

every Jew in Palestine and in every Arab

State sounds sounds a bit Nazi this

makes sense as he spent a lot of time in

Nazi Germany in the 40s he was not alone

there the best known leader of the Arabs

in Palestine haaj Amin huseni also spent

the early 40s in Nazi Germany and said

kill the Jews wherever you find them

this pleases God history and religion

this saves your honor I can give you

more examples Hassan Elana the founder

of the Muslim Brotherhood said that they

would drive all the Jews to the Sea he

is the spiritual father of Hamas and

talked about his love of death and Jihad

the Secretary General of the Arab League

at the time Abdul Rahman aam said that

this would be a war of extermination and

momentous Massacre see if you can find

one Arab leader talking about achieving

peace with the Jews but it is not only a

few quotes actions speak louder than

words how many Arabs were there in the

Jewish state in

1949

160,000 and how many Jews were there in

the territories held by the Arabs zero

NADA gourish not a single Jew was left

alive but let's put the Jews aside for a

second let's see what the Arabs do to

each other look at how people behave to

one another in their homes and you will

understand how they will behave outside

once they are comfortable enough the

Jews in Israel are divided into many

groups there is a saying two Jews three

opinions only on very rare occasions

have these different opinions escalated

into violence in fact I can name all the

times when Jews killed other Jews for

political reasons over the last 100

years thean tobiansky maybe AR loov

Alena Emil greenswag andak Rabin does

anybody know how many of the Arabs of

Palestine have been killed due to Inner

political turmoil and violence thousands

and thousands from the 1930s to the PLO

members that Hamas threw from the

rooftops of Gaza in 2007 somehow nobody

cares but when you realize just how

violent the Arabs are to one another you

understand the situation much better

many Israelis were left in Shock by the

brutality of the Palestinians in October

7th attack I wasn't 10 years ago I said

that if the syrians could murder

thousands of other syrians in the most

brutal ways then what would they do to

us if they got the chance the leader of

Hamas in Gaza in has killed many

Palestinians with his own hands for the

smallest things and the Palestinians

accept that but don't take my word for

it I'm just a Zionist let's see what

Hamas says about itself in the Hamas

Constitution it says Jihad is the path

and death for the sake of Allah is the

loftiest of its wish

they say that they love death this

culture see death and killing as the

best thing you can do they say as much

quite

clearly we the Jews say that we will win

because we love life and they say that

they will win because they love death

they are saying it listen to the other

side here is a very basic fact that you

probably didn't know and no news

organization has ever told you Jihad is

mentioned 11 times in the Hamas

Constitution and Islam is mentioned 130

times and how many times are the words

Palestinian State

mentioned zero don't you think that this

is crazy go and read the Hamas

Constitution yourself all these people

who are talking about a Palestinian

State what are you talking about Hamas

wants a Muslim khalifat not a

Palestinian State listen to them not to

the voice in your head listen to the

other side the Hamas Constitution is

what they live by listen to these

mothers on Palestinian

TV for

[Music]

can you imagine a mother in France or

Wisconsin or Australia or Israel saying

that she wants her sons to die below I

will leave a link to a video with dozens

of clips from Palestinian TV I find it

insane that the Western media totally

ignores the things I'm talking about and

it is all out there the Hamas

Constitution Palestinian TV those are

not secret documents and look at what

they teach their

[Music]

children and this is the mainstream of

Palestinian Society now you might have a

better idea why it is that when the

Palestinian leader says that Palestinian

death are a necessary sacrifice the

civilians don't protest because they

agree with it here is another fact that

shows you how different Israelis and

Palestinians are Israel developed the

Iron Dome and other defense systems to

protect civilians from Rockets these are

probably the best systems in the world

at protecting civilians Hamas built more

than 300 kilomet of tunnels they have

built their control rooms under

hospitals and un buildings so they are

using the civilian population as human

Shields they could fit a very large part

of the population of Gaza into the

tunnels but civilians don't enter and no

one says a word here is another example

that shows you how different the

Israelis and Palestinian societies are

in Israel a soldier went to jail for

shooting a wounded terrorist

the Palestinians on the other side see

terrorists who blew up a bus or a cafe

full of Israeli civilians as Heroes and

not only that the Palestinian Authority

pays 7% of its budget to terrorists the

more Jews you kill the more money you

get terrorists earn more money than the

average worker in the Palestinian

Authority how many people know this very

few so the Palestinians love Jihad and

teach their children to hate and fight

as hard as it for our Western Minds to

grasp many of them believe that civilian

casualties are necessary and are

necessary because that is the only

strong card that they hold and this is

how the Palestinians get sympathy from

the west by playing the victim card and

I get this all the time this is not the

first video I've made about the conflict

and I bring facts to the table now

because my facts are solid prop

Palestinians can't prove me wrong and so

one of the most common comments I get

from prop Palestinians is that the facts

that I'm laying out don't justify

killing children I don't find this

comment particularly smart just because

you can prove me wrong that doesn't mean

that I support the killing of children

so let's look at the number of Civilian

casualties in the current conflict and

see why most people get it wrong the

rure of combatant to civilian casualties

is about one: one which is the lowest

rure there has been in any urban

conflict over the last few decades but

if you watch the news you get a

different impression so why is that well

there are a few reasons the first one is

that Hamas lies about the numbers even

the UN has changed its estimation from

34,000 to

24,000 the number dropped drastically

but the damage has already been done in

thousands of Articles accusing Israel of

genocide the death toll published by

Hamas grows at the same rate every day

which doesn't make sense there are lots

of articles about it but you don't need

to dive too deep to know that they are

lying when Israel says that Four

soldiers and four civilians were killed

then it is true you get to see the names

and pictures of of them all but when the

health Ministry in Gaza which is run by

Hamas publishes its numbers they never

say how many of those who died were

Hamas Fighters they count them all as

civilians and pump up the numbers now

that is strange not a single Hamas

member was killed during the fighting

only after a few months did Kamas admit

that a few thousands of its members have

died but when the headlines come out it

was 100% civilians and the media just

love it headlines saying dozens of

civilians killed will get many more

clicks it is a win-win situation for

Hamas and the media Hamas get sympathy

and the media gets bombastic headlines

without having to do any hard work the

BBC only needs to add says Hamas at the

end of the headline and then they are

not technically lying they are just

quoting the lies of Hamas now you might

say that there are nonetheless thousands

of civilians dead in Gaza and that is

true if Hamas Fighters were civilian

closes although they have uniforms and

if they shoot from hospitals and schools

and if they don't protect their own

civilians and don't allow them to enter

their 300 kilometers of tunnels then

they are bound to be civilian casualties

I was in the tanks and let me tell you

how how we see it let's say we are

escorting the Infantry and my tank

identifies someone that is shooting at

the Infantry from let's say 300 M away

we inform the Infantry and we shoot at

the source of firing we don't go out to

the Hamas member and tell him hey can

you please get out of the kindergarten

no you shoot at us we are going to shoot

back we will do it as accurately as we

can but if your family members are next

to you they will probably join you in

hell and that is your own fault it is

actually your own responsibility the

Israeli Army occasionally makes mistakes

and sometimes we accidentally shoot at

our own soldiers this this happens in

every Army and in every war but most of

the Palestinian civilian death are

caused by Hamas shooting from positions

close to civilians and as their leader

said Palestinian death are necessary I

say that one of the most important

things we can do in order to understand

this conflict is to listen to the other

side another important factor is not to

patronize the other side if the Arabs of

Palestine have said since the 1940s that

they want to eliminate the Jews that is

before the establishment of the state of

Israel and before the so-called

occupation then they mean it if they

have killed thousands of other

Palestinians because of differences of

opinion then this is part of their

culture and not the fault of European

colonialism if Islam is mentioned 130

times in the Kamas Constitution and the

Palestinian state is mentioned zero

times

then they mean that they are not

interested in a state but in a Muslim

khalifate if they kill gays then it is

not because of Israel it is because of

their radical Muslim views if they

invest billions of dollars in rockets

and Terror tunnels and not in education

then it is because fighting and death

are what they consider to be most

important and if they say that

Palestinian death are necessary

then they mean it to us westerners it is

hard to understand because we value life

but they value Jihad in my next video I

will be responding to go history's video

about the Israeli Palestinian conflict

he got about 45% of it right it is

definitely going to be interesting so be

sure to subscribe and follow for more if

you already follow me you will probably

have noticed that I'm making fewer

travel videos and more videos about a

conflict I will continue making them

because I think that right now

understanding the conflict is more

important than videos about tips for for

Tel Aviv I won't be printing any more of

my tour guide booklets about Jerusalem

msada and Tel Aviv so if you want to get

a copy and support my work please do so
