=== Giant Lies Reversed (03:43) ===

[00:00:00]  So, one of the many, many gigantic lies, not little lies, that permeate our rhetoric is that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
[00:00:14]  It's an inversion of the truth.
[00:00:16]  It's literally the opposite.
[00:00:17]  It is Hamas and Iran and Hezbollah and many others in the Muslim world and in the left-wing world outside of Islam.
[00:00:29]  That want to commit genocide.
[00:00:33]  If there was no ability to take down the missiles and drones that were sent over Israel indiscriminately, the whole point was to kill as many Jews as possible.
[00:00:46]  And if Arabs died in the midst, it wouldn't matter to them.
[00:00:49]  They don't care.
[00:00:50]  Everybody is fodder.
[00:00:52]  It's like Hitler didn't care how many Germans died.
[00:00:55]  What he cared about was...
[00:00:57]  Genocide against the Jews.
[00:00:59]  For those of you who are not preoccupied with Jew-loathing, Jew-hating, anti-Semitism, whatever term you wish to use, anti-Zionism is in that category.
[00:01:12]  I've explained it and written about it.
[00:01:14]  It's very simple.
[00:01:15]  If the only state on earth you believe doesn't have a right to exist is the only Jewish state, that is anti-Semitic.
[00:01:21]  Even if you love many individual Jews, it doesn't matter.
[00:01:26]  You can love Italians, and if you want to destroy Italy, you're anti-Italian.
[00:01:30]  You could love some Americans.
[00:01:32]  There are Americans that leftists love, but they hate America.
[00:01:36]  So this is not, shall we say, complex.
[00:01:42]  The desire is to kill as many Israelis as possible.
[00:01:47]  So that is where the attempt of genocide is taking place.
[00:01:53]  The ratio of combatants to civilians in the urban warfare that is taking place in Gaza is actually lower than in almost every other case of urban warfare.
[00:02:10]  If the Israelis wanted to commit genocide against the Palestinians, they would not have taken thousands and thousands in to go to Israeli hospitals to be treated.
[00:02:22]  Something that is known and verified, but almost never reported.
[00:02:29]  So anyway, that is what Iran and its supporters want to do.
[00:02:34]  Destroy Israel, which means kill its inhabitants.
[00:02:39]  Was it ten years ago I made the video for PragerU on the Middle East?
[00:02:44]  What was the name of it?
[00:02:47]  The Middle East problem, which has had many, many millions of views.
[00:02:51]  Do you have a rough idea how many?
[00:02:53]  Rough idea would be 20 million.
[00:02:55]  Rough idea is 20 million.
[00:02:56]  So it's the most widely viewed video in the world on the Middle East.
[00:03:01]  It should be.
[00:03:03]  It explains that every word of that could be put out yesterday, could have been put out yesterday, and it would have been as relevant.
[00:03:12]  One side wants the other side dead.
[00:03:15]  That was the repeated refrain in my talk, and I asked the question, which is as pertinent today as it was ten years ago, if Israel put down its arms and said, we will fight no more, what would happen?

=== Reason For War (00:54) ===

[00:03:30]  And if the Palestinians said, we will put down our arms and fight no more, what would happen?
[00:03:37]  And in the first case, there would be genocide of the Jews of Israel.
[00:03:41]  In the second case, there would be peace.
[00:03:45]  The reason for war in the Middle East is the Arabs, the Palestinians, whatever term you wish to use.
[00:03:52]  That is the reason, that is the only reason.
[00:04:00]  Queers for Palestine, that explains it all.
[00:04:04]  If queers actually went to Palestine, they would be quite persecuted.
[00:04:09]  If they went to Israel, they would take place in a gay pride march, parade in Tel Aviv, or even Jerusalem.
[00:04:19]  But they're still for Palestine, meaning for Israel's destruction.
