| Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Dennis Prager Show. | |
| I have a big smile on my face. | |
| A smile you can see, by the way, if you watch the show, at the Salem News Channel. | |
| A big smile, and you'll immediately understand why I have a big smile. | |
| It is what we call a wry smile. | |
| What is a wry smile? | |
| People can read a wry smile. | |
| It is interesting. | |
| Isn't it interesting? | |
| I mean, almost centimeters or millimeters of a lip can tell you the difference. | |
| That's why masking was so bad for children. | |
| Because they're not reading faces at a very, very important time in life. | |
| But who cares about children among the elite in this country? | |
| Here it is. | |
| Fox News. | |
| Israel to expedite gun licenses after deadly shooting near Jerusalem synagogue. | |
| Did you happen to see that? | |
| No. | |
| I knew you'd like it, though. | |
| Israel is poised to speed up gun applications in response to a shooting in East Jerusalem over the weekend that left seven people, including a 70-year-old woman, dead. | |
| The measure was among several that Israel's Security Cabinet announced Saturday evening. | |
| Firearm licensing will be expedited and expanded in order to enable thousands of additional citizens to carry weapons. | |
| Unquote. | |
| Facebook page of the Prime Minister. | |
| Ready? | |
| National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir told reporters over the weekend, quote, when civilians have guns, they can defend themselves. | |
| Radical notion, no? | |
| When civilians have guns, they can defend themselves. | |
| Who'd have thought of that? | |
| Yes, the things that the left come up with. | |
| We don't want you to be able to defend yourselves. | |
| We don't want anybody armed in a school, because after all, if it's a gun-free zone at a school, who's going to attack it? | |
| There is no issue upon which the left thinks clearly. | |
| None. | |
| Zero. | |
| These are convoluted minds. | |
| Sick in many, many instances, especially in the treatment of children. | |
| Another interesting aspect of this is the difference between most American Jews and most Israeli Jews. | |
| American Jews live... | |
| Ah, I had her on. | |
| She was a remarkable woman. | |
| Yes, I had Carol Markowitz on when I was in Florida two weeks ago. | |
| And she had a fascinating theory on American Jews. | |
| She's herself a Jew, as I am. | |
| And she had a fascinating theory that American Jews have had it so good in America that they became naive. | |
| And when you're naive as an adult, you're an idiot. | |
| It is inexcusable to be naive as an adult. | |
| It means you want to remain a child, and that is an extremely unimpressive character flaw. | |
| Now, all character flaws are unimpressive, so you might say, that's redundant, Dennis. | |
| And Dennis does not want to be redundant. | |
| However, I wish to emphasize its unimpressivity to be naive as an adult. | |
| It means you want to remain a child. | |
| And a very important goal in life is to grow up. | |
| And that's what maturity is about. | |
| When I was a kid, I wanted to be a grown-up. | |
| Today, grown-ups want to be kids. | |
| That's a nice inversion worthy of keeping. | |
| That's a biggie. | |
| Yeah. | |
| They're naive. | |
| Oh, the whole left in America is naive because they've had it so good. | |
| America's systemically racist. | |
| Oh, really? | |
| So in what country where there is a mixture of races is there less racism? | |
| Can you name one? | |
| Of course you can't. | |
| And why is it that so many millions of non-white people wish to live in America? | |
| They didn't get the message from the American left that this country hates them? | |
| I guess they didn't get the message. | |
