In short

The episode is a highly opinionated commentary on Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israel-Iran conflict, accusing Netanyahu of lying, promoting “Greater Israel,” and enabling war crimes against civilians (including schools and hospitals). The host claims Israel’s military operations intentionally target noncombatants, and argues Israel’s strikes on Lebanon and Gaza are crimes against humanity while Western media “covers” them. Notable examples cited include alleged IDF attacks on schools and infrastructure, claims of civilians and children killed, and tweets about Iranian missile strikes on Israeli cities. The episode also argues that Tucker Carlson could exploit anti-war voters and that Democrats lack “moral clarity,” citing AIPAC influence on Schumer and Jeffries.

1:06Benjamin Netanyahu is an absolute fanatic and a pathological liar. He has dreams to make Israel a much larger country called Greater Israel and develop an Israeli hegemony at the expense of everybody else. He gets up on his high horse and he lectures everybody about democracy and terrorism and all of these things. Meanwhile, he is anything but a promoter of democracy. And from what I can see, he's one of the biggest terrorist child killers in the world. And he has the balls to start this war with Iran and striking schools via United States missiles, striking infrastructure, carpet bombing Tehran.

1:53It is a feature of IDF mission to always take out civilians, hospitals, schools, etc. etc. So Israel got hit back as what happens when you start a war, you bomb them, they bomb you back. And this smug prick has the audacity to get on camera and say this because he thinks we're all stupid. This man thinks we're dumb. Play the clip. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaking exclusively with Fox News about the situation. I asked him about that post from President Trump overnight. Take a listen. If you want proof that Iran endangers the entire world, the last 48 hours have given it. In the last 48 hours, Iran targeted a civilian area.

2:38They're doing that as a mass murder weapon. Luckily, no one was killed, but that's due to luck, not their intention. Their intention is to murder civilians. Second, they are using, They fired on Jerusalem right next to the holy site. Okay, listen, that's an upset. This guy just sit there and talk about Iran firing on civilians when we have all seen what he did to Gaza and what he is currently doing to Lebanon. on. And it is a feature of IDF military operations to exclusively bomb civilians and ethnically cleanse them. This guy is such a fanatic and such a pathological liar. The more you see it, the worse it gets.

3:31And here's the thing. The younger generation in America, both on the left and on the right, didn't grow up on the corporate news tit. And so they didn't get all of this pro Israel propaganda like I got growing up. And across all political spectrums, people see Israel for what it is, an expansionist, colonizing country that completely does not give a shit about human rights at all. Meanwhile, they want to lecture everybody in the region that they're this great democracy and they kill kids. I mean, the BBC report, Palestinian kids were targeted, shot in the head or in the heart. That's executed.

4:16That's the culture in the IDF under his leadership. And so here is what he's doing while he's lecturing the world about Iran. Meanwhile, notice the press was there. They always have a censorship ban. and nobody can get around in Palestine or in Israel, but then they lift it when they want to promote propaganda. So here is what the same day that Iran struck Israel back, this is what Israel is doing, and the Western media is barely covering this. This is what they're doing to Lebanon in Beirut, a city of 5 ,000 people. Pop this up, Seth. Israel is wiping out critical bridge after critical bridge in South Lebanon.

4:59Civilians can't flee. Ambulances can't reach the wounded. Entire communities are cut off from food, medicine, and essential supplies. This is intentional. This is a crime against humanity. that smug prick who wants to lecture the world about terrorism and lecture the world about democracy. Every single time it turns out he does the opposite of democracy and he starts all these wars so he can stay in power and go around and evade democracy and evade accountability. And it also turns out that every time there's terror in the region, it's of his making. And I guess he just thinks we're completely stupid.

5:48Pop up this next series, Seth. Okay. First, you see the picture of Gaza, the unbelievable, utterly mind-bending audacity of Israel to now cry about war crimes. So that's the picture of Gaza. And Philip Proudfoot is responding to the Israel Foreign Ministry, who tweets, The Iranian regime devastated Arad and Daimona by deliberately striking civilians with missiles. Over 100 people were injured, including children, a blatant war crime, pure terrorism. The people that tweeted that look above what they did to Gaza. These are the same people that recently there were the IDF shot a family of four Palestinians, shot them.

6:39a five-year-old, a seven-year-old, a mother and a father. And guess what? I just saw reporting. They're not even going to be questioned. The IDF soldiers that killed a family of four are not even going to be questioned. And these are the people that want to lecture the world about war crimes. Are you kidding me? Do they think we're stupid? It's unbelievable that the Western media provides cover for this horrific regime, this Israeli regime. They're just absolutely horrible. And they only care about expanding their own country at the expense of everybody else. And by the way, none of this, none of this benefits Americans except for Jared Kushner.

7:23He'll make a shit ton of money over all of this, but the other 340 million Americans, No, you're going to pay for this for generations. And then moving along here, put up this next tweet. Tucker Carlson did an interview with the Economist editor-in-chief, and I have been warning you guys for a long, long time about Tucker. And Chris Souza says basically what I've been saying. Tucker Carlson is one of the most talented figures in all political media. Like early Trump, he makes easy fools of his critics by telling truths they won't. And also like Trump, he is a dangerous con man. Democrats can find a moral center fast or get ready for his inauguration.

8:09And I've been telling you guys this and telling you guys this. Tucker Carlson will shortcut everything and he will get votes, especially in an anti-war electorate that we have right now by saying, I'm anti-war, I'm America first. And he can make that argument. The problem with Tucker Carlson is Tucker Carlson is a horrible racist, a horrible homophobe, an opportunistic grifter, and he understands the electorate and he's really, really talented. And the approval ratings of Israel and the United States are in the shitter, as they should be, because we all see what they do. And Benjamin Netanyahu treats us like we're stupid in the most patronizing manner.

8:54So I hope their approval ratings plummet even more, which by the way, as an American, I hope my country's global approval ratings plummet because I cannot stand this fascist, anti-democratic, human rights violating Trump regime. All right. I apply it both ways. So don't get on this whole thing. We can't criticize Israel because we can. We get to be outraged at war crimes and we get to be outraged when we see kids getting killed. But Tucker is making a case that is going to fill a huge void because the Democrats don't have moral clarity on this issue because Chuck Schumer is a hardcore poor Zionist.

9:38And he has said that one of his main goals as a senator is to make sure Israel has as much money as they possibly can. Hakeem Jeffries is sane. He takes a lot of AIPAC money and he will not speak out with moral clarity on this issue. So then you leave a demagogue to come in and capture up all of the electorate. And just remember what Trump is incubating right now will be worse. It will be worse. Tucker Carlson will be worse. Play the clip, and I want you to notice how easily he dismantles all the propaganda we've all been sold, this Israeli propaganda that we've all been sold via a steady diet of corporate news our whole lives.

10:21Play the clip. I think you and I agree we have both been critical of the Israeli government. I just want to kind of clarify terms a bit here. Well, I've really been critical of the Israeli government. I've been plenty critical of the Israeli government. I've told you at the beginning that we were against this war. What do you think of Gaza? What do I think of Gaza? Yeah. I think the war in Gaza to start with was a perfectly reasonable response in response to the horrors of October 7th. I think now the places, I mean, I've been there. Have you been to Gaza? I've been to Gaza since the war started.

10:51They would not let me into Gaza. Trust me, very few journalists get into Gaza. Yeah, no, I went with the IDF. It's the only way that you can go in, but nonetheless, unless you go and you see a flat in place. I think it is a disaster, a disaster for the future of Israel, a disaster for the Palestinian people, a horror, 70 ,000 people dead. Why would you describe it first as a disaster for the future of Israel? You've got tens of thousands of civilians murdered, but it's foremost a disaster for the future of Israel. No, I didn't say foremost. No, it's foremost a disaster for the families of the dead kids.

11:19Absolutely, I made three points. Because everybody sucks up to Israel in this way that suggests they're afraid, and everyone is afraid, and you know that. Everyone's like, the real problem is calling people anti-Semites allows real anti-Semites to flourish. It's like, no, actually, the real problem with calling people anti-Semites who aren't is accusing the innocent of a crime they didn't commit. And the real crime in Ghazi is killing people who did nothing wrong. So those are the real problems, I would say. But no one can say it because you have to be like, oh, no, but really, October 7th is that.

11:47I don't know what you're talking about, Ghazi. We're having a... Everyone watching this knows what I'm talking about. Okay. So as you can see, I want you all to know Tucker Carlson is a nut. And a lot of these people on the right are good in 30, 45 second soundbites, but then the more you dive into them, the more dangerous they get. But the problem with American culture is we're all so exhausted. We have so much fatigue. A lot of people will vote based on 30, 45 second soundbites. So not only did he own her when he said, why did you first lead with this won't be good for the future of Israel? That was a really good point because Tucker Carlson is a lot smarter than Donald Trump.

12:28In another clip, she asked him, does Israel have a right to exist? And he says, what does that mean? What does that mean? Does Israel have a right to exist? Because countries simply exist. And so So because there's nobody on the left leading this charge, really, really big, like a Democratic leader, you've got Cory Booker, who's bought and paid for by AIPAC. Schumer, Jeffries, bought and paid for by AIPAC. And the Progressive Caucus, you hear whispers about, oh, they're going to throw Schumer out, but they never do it. And if we get to free and fair elections, Hakeem will be the Speaker of the House.

13:12But are we just incubating more of this shit? Are we incubating more Trumps, more Tuckers, more Nick Fuenteses? Because you have to remember, Tucker Carlson has been on television and he said that he was attacked by four demons in his sleep. He refers to gay people as F-A-G-G-O-T-S-S. You think that you're going to be safe with this man? There's just so many people that are so thirsty for accountability as to why the United States taxpayer keeps having to fund Israel and what is perceived as Israeli terrorism. A genocide is full-blown terrorism, not as what is perceived, what it is. And there's such a thirst in the Democrats for somebody to have moral clarity on this, that people who vote based on 30-second soundbites are going to hop over and vote for somebody really dangerous.

14:04But here is Tenisi Coates explaining perfectly this question, does Israel have a right to exist? And he doesn't throw one person under the bus. Watch every bit of this clip. I think it's so incredibly important. Play the clip. The question is central and key. If Israel has a right to exist, and if your answer is no, then I guess the question becomes, why do the Palestinians have a right to exist? Why do 20 different Muslim countries have a right to exist? My answer is that no country in this world establishes its ability to exist through rights. Countries establish their ability to exist through force, as America did.

14:43And so I think this question of right to Israel does exist. It's a fact. The question of its right is not a question that I would be faced with with any other country. But you write a book that delegitimizes the pillars of Israel. It seems like an effort to topple the whole building of it. So I come back to the question, and it's what I struggle with throughout this book. what is it that so particularly offends you about the existence of a Jewish state that is a Jewish safe place and not any of the other states out there? There's nothing that offends me about a Jewish state. I am offended by the idea of states built on ethnocracy no matter where they are.

15:18Muslim included. I would not want a state where any group of people lay down their citizenship rights based on ethnicity. The country of Israel is a state in which half the population exists on one tier of citizenship and everybody else that's ruled by Israelis exists on another tier, including Palestinian Israeli citizens. The only people that exist on that first tier are Israeli Jews. Why do we support that? Why is that okay? I'm the child of Jim Crow. I'm the child of people that were born into a country where that was exactly the case of American apartheid. I walk over there and I walk through the occupied territories and I I walk down a street in Hebron and a guy says to me, I can't walk down the street unless I profess my religion.

16:02I'm with another, no, no, no, no, no. I want to go, this is very, very important. It is extremely important. Let it lay down. I'm working with the person that is guiding me is a Palestinian whose father, whose grandfather and grandmother was born in this town. And I have more freedom to walk than he does. He can't ride on certain roads. He can't get water in the same way that Israeli citizens who live less than a mile away from him again. So I just think that is so incredibly spot on and profound. And every democratic politician, either in office or running for office, should be speaking that same way.

16:38Why do we support unapologetically, with no questions asked, an apartheid state? Why do we do that? Why are American taxpayer funds supporting an apartheid state that doesn't believe in equal rights? Why are we doing that? Why are we giving them blank checks to commit a genocide? Why are we being Benjamin Netanyahu's Make-A-Wish Foundation? His own words, he has wanted to go to war with Iran for 40 years. Why? Every democratic politician needs to get on the side of universal human rights, period. And they have got to stop feeling scared or bullied by AIPAC or playing both sides. And we need a democratic party that believes in universal human rights, that is an opposition party to this insanity, or Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Green.

17:40And then later on, Nick Fuentes will fill this void and we will never recover from this ever. All right. That's all I have. Like, subscribe, comment, and I'll be back later with more news.
