You can be a full blown Zionist,
whatever, can you?
But I just feel like you have
to be on another level.
Like a level where you have no
humanity left, where you see that type
of devastation and you think to yourself,
that's totally okay.
[00:00:17]
I think if you see what's happening
on the ground in Gaza right now,
you see those images, you see those bodies
and you think it's totally fine.
This is what Israel needs to do.
You're a bad person.
These Palestinians do
what they can to put out a blaze.
Following a deadly Israeli strike
on this school
[00:00:33]
sheltering displaced families, those
who witnessed the attack were left shaken.
Dozens of Palestinians
across the enclave were killed
in Israeli strikes on Wednesday.
According to medics on the ground,
as basic supplies grow ever scarcer
[00:00:48]
in Gaza, the foreign ministers of Germany,
France and Britain
have urged Israel to allow the unhampered
passage of aid into the enclave.
Just want to take a moment
to remind everybody that the United States
government Supports the type of slaughter
that's currently being carried out
[00:01:08]
in the Gaza Strip,
supports the type of imagery you just
watched in the video we shared with you.
But if you happen to be
a student protester who is not okay
with the slaughter of innocent people,
who's not okay with the bombing of refugee
camps, of hospitals, of children's
[00:01:26]
hospitals, of schools, universities.
You're the bad guy.
You're the one who deserves
to have your green card revoked
and you deserve to be deported.
But the Israeli Defense Forces
slaughtering innocent people.
Tens of thousands of children.
That's totally fine.
[00:01:45]
That's okay.
Anyone who criticizes it, that's not okay.
So Israeli strikes across central Gaza
City have killed at least
at least 55 people, including children.
Of course, now the airstrikes
targeted a school sheltering displaced
[00:02:01]
Palestinian families.
There was also another attack
on a children's hospital.
You guys remember in the beginning
months of this war in Gaza,
when a hospital had been attacked
like Israel was losing it because,
[00:02:20]
there were allegations and also a lot
of print journalism indicating that
the hospital had been bombed by the IDF,
and the Israeli government was, like,
apoplectic over it because how dare you?
It wasn't us. It was Hamas.
How dare you?
Since then, they've bombed
every single hospital in the Gaza Strip.
[00:02:38]
It's like more than 51,305 people
in Gaza have been killed since the
beginning of this war in October of 2023.
And by the way,
I mean, I've said this before.
I'm going to say it again.
That number is an underestimate
because we don't have a third party on
[00:02:58]
the ground counting the number of bodies,
counting the bodies under the rubble.
Look, you can be a supporter
of the Israeli project.
You can be a full blown Zionist.
What can you.
[00:03:15]
But I just feel like you have
to be on another level.
Like a level where you have no
humanity left, where you see that type
of devastation and you think to yourself,
that's totally okay.
That's totally okay. What's.
[00:03:33]
It's real.
And look, this is the other thing.
As more and more people die in Gaza,
as more and more Palestinians
get driven out of their legal homes
on their legal land in the West Bank,
as this continues,
and as this has been going on for decades,
[00:03:53]
what you hear over and over again
from defenders of Israel is okay.
But what about what happened,
when Hamas committed all those atrocities?
What about all the innocent lives
lost there?
I need you guys to understand
anyone who engages in that.
What? Aboutism.
Anytime someone wants to draw attention
to what's happening
[00:04:12]
to the Palestinian people,
you're coming across as an individual
who values use one group,
the lives within that one group
way more than the other group.
And maybe they're okay with that.
Maybe they're totally fine.
Maybe they think, you know what?
[00:04:27]
We have so fully dehumanized Palestinian
people that we literally don't care
that tens of thousands of children, women,
elderly people, innocent people who have
been trapped in that strip of land,
we don't care if they've been slaughtered.
We don't give a damn.
It's us versus them.
We don't care about their lives.
[00:04:44]
We don't care about their suffering.
We don't care about their pain.
And I want to be very clear,
because I want everyone to know
who I am and what I actually think.
I'm not really interested in getting
into pissing matches on the show,
[00:05:02]
because I think I have a lot this time.
Is is better used
focusing on what matters.
But if anyone has any question
about what my thoughts are toward people
who are still defending
what the Israeli government is doing
to the Palestinian people in Gaza,
I think they're bad people.
[00:05:20]
And I mean that I think they're depraved.
I think they lack morality.
I think they've lost their humanity
and their ability
to see the humanity in others.
And honestly, I think they're evil.
I think if you see what's happening
on the ground in Gaza right now, you
[00:05:36]
see those images, you see those bodies,
and you think it's totally fine.
This is what Israel needs to do.
You're a bad person.
I think about those two little girls
in Gaza
after their entire family had been killed.
[00:05:54]
Their two sisters, the smallest sister
is being carried by her bigger sister,
her older sister, and they're just trying
to find a tent, just somewhere to shelter.
And she's carrying her little sister
because her little sister got injured
[00:06:10]
from a car running over her foot.
And I think about those
girls all the time.
What happened to them?
I mean, they were so young,
elementary school aged kids.
I put myself in their shoes when I was
that young and how scared I would be.
[00:06:27]
I just, The reason why we talk about this
is because we as Americans are funding it.
Enough is enough. Enough is enough.
And it doesn't matter
which party is in charge.
[00:06:45]
Whatever Israel wants, they get.
Doesn't matter how many kids die.
Doesn't matter how many
innocent people get killed.
Today is April 24th.
It's the day that Armenians
commemorate the Armenian Genocide.
So if anyone has any problem with anything
I had to say in this last segment,
[00:07:03]
either because I talk about Gaza too much
or because I called those who are okay
with what Israel is currently doing evil.
Yeah, you can go f off.
Seriously, go watch another show.
Go tell yourself cute little stories
about how this is okay.
[00:07:19]
It's not okay. It's disgusting.
And I feel shame about it
every single day.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets his wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
