Ladies and gentlemen, good evening.
And welcome to tonight's 8 p.m. version of this thing of ours.
And I say to you, dear friends, welcome.
We normally do it at 7 p.m., but tonight, well, tonight was different.
And I am ready for one of the most important shows ever because if this morning was in any way indicative of where we are going, this could be the most important show we've ever done.
And my friends, I don't even know where to begin.
The technical story is what next?
Will there ever be a peaceful and equitable resolution to Gaza?
I should have said here.
Will there be a peaceful resolution here?
Do Americans care about Israel?
Or do they care about what appears to be a bunch of brats?
Hold up in encampments.
You believe that?
Do you believe that Americans really care about Israel and Gaza?
Do you really believe?
I don't.
Oh, some do.
Certainly some do.
Some care about Julian Assange.
Some care about climate change.
But not everybody.
Not the majority.
Do you believe that?
If I were to say most Americans, do they have a favorable position of Israel or Palestinians?
Or Palestine, I guess.
Do you think they know what Palestine is?
Do you think they are aware at all of what it means?
Not you, America.
It is reported that the The median age of American voters is a 55-plus who's not even a college graduate, who uses cable news as the overwhelming source of news.
Is there a difference between a source of news and opinion?
I may use CNN as a source of news.
But not base my opinion on that.
We tend to go, though, for what opinions we share.
Now, there are many of you fine, fine folks who really care about this.
This is so important this eve.
I don't even know where to begin.
But before we begin, let me just first of all welcome and remind you, please, please, especially on this, the last day of the month.
The last thing is important for you to make sure that you are subscribed.
And I thank you for that.
Make sure that all of the bells and whistles are activated so you're notified of live streams and new videos and the like.
I thank you for that as well.
And I thank you for being a part of this thing that we do.
It means so much into my...
How do I say this?
It means so much.
It means so much.
But in the meantime, dear friends, in the meantime, in the meantime, let us, before we begin, sit back and pay this very, very, very special and careful attention to this most critical sponsor of ours.
It's no longer a question of if something catastrophic is coming, it's when.
And while you still have control, still have time, what are you going to do about it now to prepare?
Your first step is going to my website at preparewithlionel.com.
Preparewithlionel.com.
Your next step is stocking up on multiple four-week emergency food kits from My Patriot Supply.
And for a limited time, take $50 off a four-week emergency food supply.

Take advantage right now, my friend, and go to preparewithlinel.com.
That's preparewithlinel.com.
Now let me begin by saying, and I'm not going to make you watch the image yet again of the Eric Bren with his multiple plates.
What is the issue?
Let's talk about the issue here.
First and foremost, remember something, and a couple of information points.
Number one knows anything about anything involving Gaza or Israel.
Let me just say this again.
Nobody, nobody, with, of course, the exception to you, Cobbs, good evening, sir, seems things are getting spicy uptown indeed.
Thank you for that.
Nobody understands the first thing about it.
Do you?
Do you?
Where do you begin?
Shall we?
Where is the history of Israel or the history of Palestine?
Where do you start first?
When did Israel become Israel?
1948.
But, but, but, there are others who say Israel has enjoyed this for thousands of years.
But as far as What we're talking about now, we're talking about 1948.
What is the most important starting date, if you are so inclined?
I would venture to say, dear friend, it is 1917.
At the time of the Balfour Declaration and how all of this got started.
Now, is history important?
Sort of.
Sort of.
Is it critical to this?
Not really.
Must you know history to understand what's going on now?
No.
It might help, but no.
No, not really.
Do you think the kids and the people who were...
Because we're going to be making sure that tonight, for all practical purposes, I want to focus on what is happening here in this country regarding the various...
Because there are a number of different planes of interest.
Number one, there's a history of Israel.
There's what would be beneficial to Israel and Palestinians.
What's happening there?
See what I'm saying?
What's happening there?
Do most people care about this?
Not really.
Somebody said that Joe Biden cares about a two-state solution, Michigan and Minnesota.
Is there going to be peace there?
Is that the Concern of the United States?
Do you believe that anti-Semitism is the real touchstone, that that's the issue here?
Do you believe that anti-Semitism and if anti-Semitism is a problem, how do you stop anti-Semitism?
How do you stop it?
How do you stop racism or transphobia?
How do you do that?
How does one stop this?
Do you think that anti-Semitism can ever be codified into a statute for prohibition purposes?
Do you?
Do you think we can ever stop anti-Semitism?
Do you think that's possible?
Do you think it's possible for me to say anti-Semitism is defined as and then to tell somebody okay you Have exhibited anti-Semitism.
Why?
Because you said, as a friend of mine suggests, from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
That's anti-Semitism because, as a friend of mine once opined, that is a pro-Hamas piece of information.
Is it?
And if it is, I'm going to say something you're going to go crazy about.
So what?
It has been said by a group of people that under Immigration and Naturalization Act statutes a student who possesses a visa may be deported if they subscribe to and endorse The ideological tenets and the like of a terrorist organization.
Did you know that?
It's true.
Did you know that?
They can be...
And one would say that Hamas is a terrorist organization.
And therefore, if somebody, if a student holding a visa, or a young person, If someone espouses some type of connection, either formally or informally, with that, they can be summarily expunged and ablated from American territory for every deported.
No other deportation seems to be the issue.
I don't really know.
Now let me give you a couple of realist points of view, first of all.
And I'm going to tell you, What I think.
First, protest is bullshit.
Now I know that may be a problem, and I know you're going to say, wait a minute, what?
What?
Absolutely.
I don't think we can protest anymore.
I really don't.
The only thing that can be accomplished with protest is if you can give me numbers.
You give me a million people, and I don't care what you do.
You give me a million people, not only will nobody bother you, but no police force or army can handle really a million people.
You show me a million people.
Remember the million man march?
Remember that joke?
The Farrakhan?
It was nowhere near a million men.
I never will forget that day.
But they swore it was a million men.
They were taking shots from helicopters and trying to base...
They divided the area into grids and they lied.
So rule number one, Lionel's rule.
Protest is bullshit.
Unless you've got a million people.
Then they'll say, whoa!
Whoa!
What are they protesting?
Kristi Noem shooting her dog?
Whoa!
A million people?
Damn!
Well, do you care?
It's a million people.
Rule number one, if you don't have a million people, don't worry about it.
You're wasting your time.
Half a million?
Okay, I'll stretch a little bit.
Rule number two, you've got to be an idiot to throw away your entire career based upon a protest march at an encampment at Columbia University.
You're a damn fool.
If you throw everything away, your career and your future are not worth pounding a drum so that you can explain how...
Now, I'd love to say that ideologically, I'd love to say the cause is absolutely critical.
The cause, the subject matter, I'm with you on that one.
I think what they would do is just hold pictures of dead Palestinian babies from Gaza.
Just show babies.
Dead.
Don't say anything.
Put the drum away.
Put the encamin away.
Just line up.
Just march with pictures of that.
Very orderly.
Oh my God, it would be.
But you can't do this because you've got these jerk-offs who are going to want to sit there and take pictures in Instagram and pound a drum.
And yay!
We're protesting!
Remember!
The cause might be good.
These people could protest cancer and ruin it.
They could protest anything.
It's amazing how nobody seems to care about children in our country.
But what's happening here locally, none of those, none of these people care about anything domestically.
Do they have a right to protest?
Absolutely.
Is there a cause?
There is so much.
There is 35...
Oh my God.
The absolute horrors of this are something that I cannot believe.
What's going on here?
I am telling you right now, in fact, just go to, if you want to see something, this will get your attention.
I told you this.
This is B'Tselem.
This is an Israeli.
An Israeli, excuse me, an Israeli human rights organization, and this will just kill you.
I mean, this will kill you.
Here we go.
Put it right here.
Show this to people.
This isn't some Palestinians.
And of course, people will say, it's propaganda, whatever it is.
Now, are you following what I'm saying?
The heartbreak, the horror, The savagery, what is happening in Gaza is imane.
Huge.
Colossal.
No doubt about that.
You want to protest that here?
Fine.
You want to think that?
If you think that's the same as being one of the civil rights protesters of...
Yeah.
If you want to be like Charlton Heston and Marlon Brando, they didn't give up their career.
They didn't give up their career.
Same thing happened with HUAC.
Remember that?
They were all gung-ho like Humphrey Bogart until they said, Humphrey, you're not going to work again.
Oh, okay, well, you know, second thought.
So let me just tell you something right now.
If you want to take $100,000 a year of your parents' money or whoever pays for you, and you want to take your career, And it's not necessarily opening up or being some part of some big Wall Street investment banking.
You could be a teacher.
You could be a shrink.
You could be a doctor.
You could do whatever it is.
If you want to throw all of that away for this, go ahead.
Nobody will remember you.
Nobody will know.
You will have this.
You will know in your heart of heart how you did it.
It's one thing when people said, hey, I don't want to go to Vietnam.
I'm going to go to Canada.
Why?
Because I'm going to get my ass shot.
That's a different story.
But this, you know, burning your draft card, that sounds good.
So I just want people to understand this.
If you think, if you think, being in that group of people, pounding the snare drum, having sushi from Pret-a-Manger, or whatever the hell it is, sitting there in your Soros-provided tent, Go ahead.
I think you're a damn fool if you do that, okay?
Now, you know what I'm telling you.
The cause may, the subject matter may make sense, but you doing that, you're crazy.
Crazy!
Next, you break a door, you break a door, break windows.
Some of these, there's the history of Columbia University in particular.
How dare you?
We know who the people are who are breaking those.
We mentioned agent provocateur.
You're being set up, kids.
They're going to bring people into this whole cacophony that aren't from your school, that aren't your age, and they're going to raise all kinds of holy hell, and you're going to be blamed for it.
As you lose your scholarship and your job and you're expelled and kicked out and maybe arrested.
Johnny Mazz, ladies and gentlemen, says, Have you noticed, Lana, that in the last few weeks, some of the pro-Palestinian protesters appear to make the pro-Palestinian protesters look bad?
Does these J6 FBI infiltrators look like it's in place again?
Curious.
Jazz, first of all, thank you, brother.
Thank you.
Let me throw this one at you.
Agent, agent, provocateur.
This is somebody who incites.
The January 6th FBI were standing there.
They were taking it all in.
They weren't necessarily provoking anything.
They were there in the worst Disguises ever.
Joe Pistone, they are not.
Okay?
They weren't provoking it.
Now, there were some people, I think, inside the Capitol who were saying, come on in.
And why haven't we found that about Ashley Babbitt?
Knock wood, please, Lord God, no deaths.
Don't let anybody die.
Anybody get hurt.
Please, I ask you, please, in the name of God, please do not do that.
Do not do that.
But I digress.
I digress.
But the January 6th thing is just absolutely perfect.
These same people who said, well, you know, I don't know what the problem is.
Jill Stein.
Jill Stein.
Who is a candidate for president?
You may not like Jill Stein.
You may not think Jill Stein has a chance.
You might think Jill Stein is some old hippie-type loser like, you know, the Pat Paulson, the Harold Stassen of our times.
But did you see what happened to her?
They used a bike and they were basically crushing her.
My friends, we've got cops who are thugs.
They've got cops.
They have been wanting to, please, go in there and rough them up.
What did you say?
Rough them up.
See that one girl there?
What does she weigh, about 120 pounds?
You pick her ass up and frog march her out.
I'll do it.
Good.
And if she gives you a hard time, what are you going to do?
See the guy over there?
Tackle him like a Heisman.
Have this guy come at you.
Full force.
Basically.
Now let me explain something to you.
And let me also say this.
And please understand this.
Please understand this.
Here you go, dear heart.
I'm on the phone.
I'm kidding.
It's for you.
I'll tell him you're not here.
Okay.
Now let me ask you a question.
Listen to me carefully.
Do you believe, and I ask you a question, do you believe that you're following what I'm saying?
I'm going to say this, and then I'm going to say this.
But this, but that.
You're going to go crazy tonight.
Cops are great, but so many of them are thugs.
Cops are great, but remember years ago, they had this...
They wanted to...
They didn't want to hire cops who scored too high on intelligence rates.
I'm not saying anything.
Look, we all love cops, but please, do yourself a favor.
I don't know if we have the quality of police that we used to have.
I don't want to say DEI.
But in order to be a cop, you've got to be of a certain mindset.
And for the most part, cops are very nice or peaceful.
But there's a whole bunch.
Oh, you put them in that riot gear.
Oh, my God.
Remember the NDAA?
Remember the National Defense Authorization Act when they had MRAPs?
They would take police officers and they would take them To be trained by the military.
And a lot of the folks here went to Israel to train.
Oh, they know.
They got this thing down pat.
They know this.
And there's a whole lot of folks in either the Israeli Army, you know, Shin Bet or IDF or whatever all of this.
Those are some badass mofos.
I mean, really.
Really bad.
Okay?
You know it's true.
You know it's true.
And there are people there who have had it.
Who hate Palestinians.
Hate them!
Hate them!
Because they've got to live there.
But we're here.
They're there.
So we've got issues of, every time I say, we've got one issue of what's anti-Semitism.
Number two, what's our role?
Do we keep paying for this?
Let me ask you a question.
If we said, you know what, we're not going to pay anyone.
You're on your own.
Hey, Bibi, go call somebody else.
Call Canada.
They've got weapons.
We're tired.
We've got a big problem here.
We've got people marauding our own borders and we don't have time for that.
What would happen with this?
Let me ask you a question.
Are we aiding and abetting?
The subjugation and the collapse and the crushing of the Palestinian people?
Or do you care?
And I mentioned this before.
What do you think most Americans do when they hear the word Palestinian?
You know what I think?
Because you know what I think about most Americans.
I'm sorry.
They may be good, but I told you, average age is 55 plus of the median voters, and they're not even college educated.
Not that that matters, but...
You're not going to be hearing anybody quoting Spinoza any time shortly, but do you think that they really understand what's going on?
If you sat down and said, Uncle Jerry, let me ask you a question.
In your own words, Uncle Jerry, give me an idea of what this is about.
What does Israel want?
What does Palestine want?
What is Palestine?
What is that?
Is there a Palestine?
What's the West Bank versus Gaza?
What's the Palestinian Authority?
What about Abu Mazen versus Hamas?
Is Hamas an organization?
Are they terrorists?
What is a terrorist organization?
What if the people in Gaza say, I know this is crazy, what if they say, listen, You may think they're a terrorist organization, but they're our terrorist organization.
We like them.
They stand up for us.
If it wasn't for them, we'd be completely crushed.
They're sticking up for us.
The same way Nelson Mandela said about China, about Mao, about Castro.
If you were in Gaza, if you were in Gaza right now, would you be for or against Hamas?
Would you?
What would you think?
Simple question.
You're a Palestinian in Gaza.
Can't get out.
You're there.
Would you be for or against Hamas?
Yes or no?
Answer my question.
What do you think?
What do you think?
You know what the answer is.
You know what the answer is.
I don't have to tell you anything.
You would say, I'm for anybody who is promoting my cause.
And if those people are causing those people grief, I'm with those people.
And the reason why Hamas was around is because the Palestinian Authority, well, actually, Fatah, you know, the old Yasser Arafat group was so corrupt, stealing all these people's money, they were going nuts.
He said, this is the most ridiculous thing in the world.
This is crazy.
This is crazy talk.
We'll pick these people.
Now, I had a friend of mine today who says, listen to this.
This is a guy who says he knows what's going on.
He said, well, let me tell you something.
This is all Palestinians' fault.
What?
This is all Gazans' fault.
Gaza?
It's their fault?
It's their fault.
Why?
They were the ones who elected Hamas.
Who created Hamas?
I don't want to hear that stuff about Israel starting Hamas.
I don't want to hear about that stuff.
Well, do you believe it or not?
Maybe so.
Maybe.
I don't know.
But look, I don't want to hear about that.
It's kind of like us with Al-Qaeda.
Remember how we kind of use these folks in order to fight the Russians in Afghanistan?
And then we're stuck with them.
It's like introducing it to the geosphere, into the biome.
So to speak, this new bug, this new thing that throws everything off.
You see what I'm talking about?
Do you see what I'm talking about?
I think you know what I'm talking about.
Now, let's go back here.
That might be well and good.
That's over there.
Do you think the people in Gaza give a damn about this?
I think they do because somebody's paying attention.
But do they know where Columbia University is?
Maybe some do.
Do they know where Emory is or UCLA?
But they're glad somebody's paying attention.
They're glad somebody's paying attention.
And you know this is driving Bibi Netanyahu ape shit, crazy, bat shit, I should say.
Yeah, bat shit.
He's thinking, I can't believe this.
And now they're talking about the ICC, not the IJC, criminal court.
They want to indict.
They want to arrest Bibi for a war crime.
America said, you can't do that.
When it was Putin, they said, well, of course.
What about Kissinger?
You can't do that.
Putin, of course.
So do you or do you not believe in ICC jurisdiction?
Well, maybe if it's the right person.
So let me ask you something.
Where is this going?
Are the people going to poop it up?
I was going to say, are they going to poop it out?
Are they?
Not now.
No way.
Because you've thrown everything at them.
Somebody's going to get hurt.
Somebody's going to get hurt.
And they are not going away.
And you can say, listen, you're making a damn fool out of yourself.
They don't care.
Maybe it's that youthful petulance.
I wouldn't do that.
And I'm going to say, you people are so stupid, you didn't even realize that the people in your group are not necessarily of your group.
They're going to make you look bad.
Guess who's putting them in there?
Guess who's paying for them?
And by the way, you're being used by Soros.
And to which the American protesters would say, look, we may be used by these people, but we're doing this because we believe in this subject.
We believe in this.
Is there a subject matter or a cause that you would do this for?
That you would risk everything?
Being expelled?
Being charged?
And don't you love the double standards?
These people, when I saw...
The BLM and the Antifa thugs destroying my city and my country.
They didn't give a goddamn about that.
They didn't care about that.
But now, all of a sudden, well, what are they doing?
Okay, they broke a window here.
Well, what are they doing?
Do you see what...
Are you following what I'm saying?
Do you see how it changes on a dime every time we have a new subject?
There's about four or five different ways to look at it.
Why do you care what these people are doing?
You didn't give a goddamn about BLM.
That phony, fraudulent, organized crime, racketeering enterprise with that colors.
Remember her?
Walking around just...
I mean, just...
Nobody even cared.
But they're going after...
I don't know, whatever they're going after, these various organizations that they...
Oh, no, Hunter Biden.
Don't worry about Hunter Biden.
Oh, Hunter Biden's a big deal.
Hunter Biden's not a big deal for anybody.
Anyway, nobody cared about that.
But this one you do?
Why?
What difference does it mean?
Changing the subject.
How stupid is this Columbia president?
How stupid is this woman?
How stupid?
Stop for a minute right now.
I think I'm confusing you.
Because I don't blame you for being confused.
Because nobody's asking you any questions during the day.
Nobody asks you a question.
So think about it very carefully.
Think about what I'm saying.
But first, think about our great sponsor.

I love this story because just when we go in this direction, it changes course into that direction.
And the average American doesn't know what.
That we're talking about!
I'm telling you!
They just see these rioters and they hate them and that's it!
That's all they do.
They hate these people.
They can't stand the rioters.
This is the part that drives...
That's all they care about.
They hate the rioters.
They just hate them.
That's the most important thing in the world.
You must understand this.
They just absolutely hate them with a passion.
And when you talk about it, when you show people, they go nuts.
They go crazy.
See?
The blood was found in the opposite.
Look at this!
Look what they're doing!
Think those are students?
Think those are students?
Think those are regular folks?
Trying to make their case now?
We're going to break through the door, let this guy out, and then we're going to close the door and change.
And of course the chronic over there.
Here we go.
See that one?
What do you think about that?
What does it make you look like?
What does that make you think of?
What does that make you think of?
When you see that, what does that do?
What does that make you think?
How angry does that make you?
Or does it?
Or do you say, hey look, that's a protest!
That's a protest!
It's no big deal!
What are you talking about?
Are you making a big deal?
I mean, it's glass.
I mean, you can't...
Do you think that the entire Martin Luther King movement was non-violent completely?
Come on!
Do you really think so?
I don't believe so.
Come on.
Do you really think so?
What about these rioters?
Remember these folks?
This picks up.
This enrages me.
That's only one pane of glass.
Look at that.
Let me ask you a minute.
What is being accomplished from this?
I'm just curious.
I'm just curious.
I'm not...
In any way, I know what you're thinking.
I'm not in any way invalidating the cause.
I'm saying, what does this do?
How does this do anything?
Please tell me.
Thank you.
Hey, we...
We brought a barricade.
What does this look like?
We will not stop, we will not rest this world.
Like that.
We will not stop, we will not rest this world.
They're just forever.
We are not.
How is that helping?
How is that helping?
Look at this.
It's hanging in front.
Arms law.
And...
Go, go!
I'm not trying to be dense.
I'm not trying to be dense.
Now, this morning we had one for you, which was very interesting.
We had a number of, I think, if I'm correct, there were these young students.
I think they identified themselves as Jewish.
And I believe they were standing and they were kind of rough.
They weren't hurt, but they were saying, this is clearly assault.
Remember this one?
Now again, I want to ask you this question.
All the time I ask you.
First, before we begin, before we continue, remember, this is not the entire spectacle.
This is one segment from one part of one city, of one campus, of one area.
Nobody's talking about like at Brown and UPenn.
They had a very nice, peaceful.
They were sitting around.
They have satyrs at night.
This is not.
Representative of the entire movement.
This is not everything.
I'm not saying that.
I want you to understand that.
You're going to have to be able to be very careful and be able to say, okay, I will look at this in a limited way and I will not necessarily take the whole notion of gods and rights and make it somehow subordinate or subsumed under the rubric of this particular spectacle.
Let us proceed.
Okay, see these two fellas right here?
See these two fellas?
These are two young men.
One in the front, or two, or I guess the top of this, looks very frightened.
Notice his cheeks get very red, and he's afraid.
But he's holding his own.
He's standing his ground.
I don't think he's doing anything.
And I believe, do not hold me to this, but I believe he either identified himself as Jewish or somebody else.
We're gonna move it up.
Let's go.
Another human change.
Now, they're standing there.
Two guys, but you've got to hand it to them.
This is gutsy.
Two guys standing there by themselves against this mob or whatever.
They're unmasked.
You have no idea how I hate the mask.
I hate the mask.
And there's something about hoodies.
Hoodies, I realize that the keffiyeh is not necessarily a hoodie.
But there's something about it.
It's visceral with me.
I'll bet you if they started bludgeoning these two guys, these people with the cameras would just keep clicking away.
They'd say, well, I'm just here to chronicle.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Now they're moving this guy.
Why are they moving him?
This is physical.
This is, one could say, assault and or battery, depending upon your particular jurisdiction.
They have just the same right to be here as these other people.
Why must they move?
And why are they physically moved out of the way?
They're conducting their own protest.
They're standing there.
They're not wearing any particular identifiable international garb.
They're just standing there.
Why must they move?
And why is, um, why is Kevin Hart here, um, moving them?
I got it, I got it all on video.
And also, it's like being assaulted.
Is someone recording this?
Are you recording this?
This is 100% assault.
Being 100% assault.
I like this.
He maintains his gut.
This is Roxanne.
This is Roxanne.
You don't have to wear that red dress, Roxanne.
Free, free, free Palestine!
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Now, excuse me.
Excuse me.
Again.
Again.
Let me remind you of something.
This is not regarding the issue of Palestine.
That's over here.
What is this accomplishing?
How is this engendering?
How is this inspiring?
This scene, remember, one scene among many.
But what were the...
When these people go home tonight, those folks wearing these surgical masks and the like, and they say, that was a good night.
Don't you think, Roxanne?
Yeah.
What did we accomplish?
Well, I think we secured yet more of an opportunity to explain and to promote the plight of the Gazans.
I don't think so.
Kill, kill, kill.
Kill, kill, kill.
Can you walk around that side?
Kill, kill, kill.
Please, please, please.
Please, everybody.
Kill, kill.
You told me to do this.
Can we get back up behind us?
Red team behind us.
And I think he wants a guy to handle it.
He wants to protest and do a good way.
We got it, we got it, let's go.
People are getting very red, you understand?
Physically assaulted.
One question is very much.
Let's call it the best thing or we were back.
Let's go, hold on tight, hold on tight.
Watch out, watch out.
Be safe.
Come on, come on.
We're slow, we're slow.
And you know when we're great.
Come on, come on, come on.
We're down.
I'm not fighting!
You guys are the ones dragging people away!
You guys, this is assault.
You're scubbing me!
It's ironic about occupation and he is being moved out.
You know what I mean?
Now listen, I'm going to say this again because you have to remind people of this.
This is one particular area.
One particular campus, one particular city, one particular area of one particular campus.
This is a very large area.
One person, it was relatively, with the exception of the glass, nobody was hurt, thank God.
But my question is, one word, when you watch this, when the world watches this, if they see this, part of the mosaic, I ask you, what did you accomplish?
Marching is one thing.
Occupation of a building.
As you argue against occupation, okay, fine.
You must really believe in what's going on.
Wait until, and I'm sorry to say this, wait until these young people get expelled and their careers are ruined.
I wouldn't do this.
Next, if I was the president of the university, I, first of all, after Claudine Gay bought it and was removed, extricated, and the like, as she was removed, I think what I would have done Very seriously, if I were Claudine Gay.
Because I would have told everybody, listen, if you have an organization or a university, it would behoove you greatly.
It would behoove you greatly to do everything in your power to have in place some kind of an advance plan, of a plan to address this.
What are you going to do?
And the first thing you do is you say, I am the president.
I have asked, first of all, to meet with the leaders of the organization who take me to your leader.
Who is running?
I want to speak.
And of course, they'll say, we don't have a leader.
I want to work this out so that we can accommodate your First Amendment abilities to protest and the like, and we can ensure the safety of others, and we in no way...
Want to impede, obstruct, or interrupt the right that students have to go to classes to learn if they elect not to participate in this.
You would certainly not want a pro-Israeli group to prevent you from going to class.
And also, why are there no pro-Israeli groups?
Why?
Is that tactical?
Is that deliberate?
Is that, you know what?
We know we're going to win the public relations war here.
But are they?
Nobody's going to remember these particular instances and that particular pane of glass and Roxanne standing there with a guy with a hood.
Nobody's going to remember that.
But they're going to remember this collectively.
And they're taking into account story after story, school after school, Issuing the same or experiencing the very same types of activities.
This is a part of what's happening in the world.
This is what has been going on.
A single tile in this protest mosaic.
This is what you have to realize.
This is a single tile.
This is a...
A single piece, a single frame of this entire mosaic.
This is important.
How is this going to play in the elections?
This is very important for younger people, or is it?
Because I'm looking at this not as to the...
Validity of the cause, but in the effects that it will have.
That's all I'm saying.
And what bothers me the most is when they're talking about killing free speech.
I never want to do that.
So we will watch this, my friends.
We will watch this.
We will keep an eye on this.
And I want to thank you great people.
Cobbs says, Morons broke the glass.
On a door with a push bar.
Interesting.
Maybe there was another reason for it.
But I'm leaving nothing out.
Cobbs, thank you.
Johnny Maz, thank you.
And thank you for being a part of this.
Thank you for doing this.
I hope that what I have been able to do, I hope, is to explain to you how complicated this is.
Look at the levels.
How does this affect the election?
How does this affect the cause?
Does this do anything in terms of the entire movement?
What is going to happen?
Is Bibi Netanyahu going to say, alright, ceasefire, we're done.
You had me going there, but Columbia University, we're done.
We're through with this.
We're stopping.
We're going to release all blockades.
I don't know what.
We thought this would go differently.
Does anybody even think of October the 7th anymore?
Does anybody remember this?
And where are the hostages themselves who were taken?
Where are the hostages?
Do we know their fate?
Have we forgotten that altogether?
What are we accomplishing?
There's 15 different 15 or 20 to 20,000 different theaters.
We will see that.
My friend, you have a great day.
Tomorrow we will not be available at 8 a.m.
We have a different event that I must attend to at that particular time.
Business related.
Make sure you remain subscribed and make sure you hit that little bell because I might just go, it might be 10 o 'clock, it might be, who knows?
But it will not be at 8 o 'clock.
I will do my best to let you know ahead of time.
So that we can join the cacophony and the maelstrom of activities and the like.
If you pray, pray for peace.
Because the question is, will there be a peaceful and equitable resolution to Gaza?
That's what this is.
And right now, does it look like there's going to be?
No.
And what will that non-resolution look like?
I can't even begin to think.
Alright, dear friends, have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow, whenever.
Thanks for watching.
And don't forget, the monkey's dead.
The show's over.
