Transcript [00:00] a Hamas misfire. How many people killed [00:02] at a hospital and they went so fast to [00:06] blame Israel and the rest of the world? [00:08] Listen to them and listen to their [00:09] propaganda. Nobody's concerned to check [00:12] what is true and what is false not [00:14] knowing that we are going against [00:16] evolution. We are going against the [00:18] collective consciousness of humanity. [00:20] And yes, they are dying. Who's causing [00:22] all this death? Blame is the cheap way. [00:25] It's the way of the coward. Those who [00:27] have the courage take responsibility. [00:31] >> Of all of the lies told about Israel [00:32] since the beginning of the October 7th [00:34] war, none is more false and more [00:37] damaging and more evil than the charge [00:40] that Israel is deliberately targeting [00:42] civilians. None less than Colonel John [00:45] Spencer, the worldwide leading expert on [00:48] urban warfare. He's the head of urban [00:50] warfare studies at uh at West Point, has [00:53] written numerous articles about how [00:55] Israel is doing more than any other [00:56] military in history to protect [00:58] civilians. And I've spoken to Israeli [01:00] soldiers who have been in Gaza in the [01:03] fighting repeatedly. They don't even see [01:05] civilians. The evacuation notices and [01:07] the leaflets that they drop really make [01:09] it such that the civilians aren't even [01:10] around. And the what's so damaging and [01:14] so evil about this is not simply that it [01:17] smears Israel, but that it takes Kamas [01:19] off the hook. Now, no one understands [01:22] this better. No one understands the evil [01:23] of Kamas better than Mosab Hassan Ysef, [01:26] who's otherwise known as son of Kamas. [01:28] Maybe you've heard of him. He was born [01:30] and raised in the leadership in as a [01:32] prince of Kamas. He was set to be one of [01:35] the leaders of Kamas. And he saw the [01:37] light and realized the evil of it. And [01:40] then he started working as a you know in [01:42] collaboration with the Israelis. And [01:44] since then he has been a very important [01:46] voice calling out the evil of Hamas. [01:48] He's someone who knows it well from the [01:50] inside. Here is a talk that he gave on [01:53] behalf of the Israeli mission to the [01:54] United Nations about this particular [01:57] evil of how of of how immoral it is when [02:02] people blame Israel for the death of [02:05] children in Gaza. Have a look and we'll [02:07] talk about it in a couple minutes. None [02:09] of us should forgive this crime. [02:12] Gambling with children's blood for [02:14] political gain. It doesn't get worse [02:17] than this. [02:20] So, Israel now got stained by blood. [02:25] This is what Hamas wanted to happen from [02:27] day one. [02:29] They wanted to sacrifice thousands of [02:31] children so Israel can't take the blame. [02:36] digging tunnels and bunkers and their [02:38] hospitals, schools, lunchon missiles. [02:43] A Hamas misfire. How many people killed [02:46] at a hospital? And they went so fast to [02:49] blame Israel and the rest of the world. [02:51] Listen to them and listen to their [02:54] propaganda. [02:55] Nobody's concerned to check what is true [02:58] and what is false. Whatever that serve [03:01] our political and shortterm interest, we [03:05] go for it. Suicidal [03:08] not knowing that we are going against [03:11] evolution. We are going against the [03:13] collective consciousness of humanity. [03:15] We're going against [03:18] the interest of children, the [03:20] defenseless children who has no one to [03:23] speak on their behalf. They don't have [03:25] the power to to discern. [03:28] And yes, they are dying. But who's [03:30] causing all this death? [03:34] Blame [03:36] is the cheap way. It's the way of the [03:39] coward. [03:43] Those who have the courage take [03:46] responsibility. [03:50] They don't blame. [03:57] If Hamas is not defeated, if Hamas is [04:00] not eradicated in Gaza, [04:05] we [04:07] will set the model. We will give the [04:10] freedom to so many radical groups around [04:14] the world. And this is just a warning. [04:18] if you really care [04:20] for the global security [04:23] and I speak as a person who was part of [04:25] the counterterrorism effort against [04:28] radical Islamists. [04:33] If Hamas is not defeated in Gaza, [04:37] it will inspire many groups around the [04:40] globe. They will see that [04:43] few thousands of savages [04:46] can black blackmail the international [04:49] community the superpowers and bring [04:52] democracies to their knees. [04:56] >> [clears throat] [04:56] >> Many of them are watching now and many [04:59] of them are very happy about how the [05:02] world is responding [05:04] and many of them are satisfied to see [05:07] the state of confusion [05:10] and fear and anxiety. [05:13] Wow, that was very powerful and he's [05:15] always a very powerful speaker. Uh he's [05:17] someone who's really worth following and [05:19] listening to. I want to focus on two [05:20] specific things that he said. One of [05:22] them is the is that he said that if [05:26] Hamas is not destroyed in Gaza, it will [05:28] inspire [05:30] it'll inspire other other movements like [05:33] them all over the world. And you might [05:35] ask yourself, well, why? I mean, look at [05:36] all the destruction they brought upon [05:38] themselves. You know, why does it look [05:40] like Hamas has had a victory just [05:42] because they survive and aren't [05:43] destroyed? You have but this this really [05:45] gets into the psychology [05:48] of the of the jihadist mind of the of [05:51] the Middle Eastern mind really you know [05:53] because as westerners we look at all the [05:54] destruction in Gaza and we look at how [05:56] kamas has been beaten back and weakened [05:58] militarily and we say well how can they [06:00] possibly define this as a victory but [06:02] that's not how they define victory. You [06:04] can't you can't define victory only in [06:08] your own terms. If your enemy doesn't [06:10] accept the fact that they've been [06:12] defeated and they define victory [06:14] differently, they could still be an [06:16] inspiration to their followers and to [06:18] the people who share their ideology. I [06:20] want to I want to drill down on that [06:21] point. Now you see [06:24] again as westerners we think of victory [06:26] and defeat in terms of the amount of [06:28] destruction, in terms of how much power [06:30] we have now versus before. They define [06:33] victory as survival. They're playing a [06:36] very long game. And they don't really [06:38] care about about [clears throat] how [06:40] many buildings are destroyed. They don't [06:42] really care how many of their civilians [06:44] are killed. They are a culture of death. [06:46] They speak openly about how they're all [06:48] willing to die and be martyrs. And they [06:51] even say, "We love death just as the [06:52] Jews love life." So their definition of [06:56] victory is different than ours. Merely [06:59] surviving. [07:01] [laughter] merely surviving against the [07:02] Israeli entity is itself a victory and [07:05] an inspiration to their followers [07:07] worldwide. Now, more importantly, [07:10] Mosab here talked about who is causing [07:12] all the death. That was specifically [07:14] what he said. Of course, babies are [07:15] dying, but who is causing all the death? [07:18] And here is where, you know, kamas [07:20] openly admits it. [laughter] They're [07:24] even proud of it. Hamas officials admit [07:26] its strategy is to use Palestinian [07:28] civilians as human shields. They've [07:30] admitted this many times. They say it [07:31] proudly. They talk about how all of our [07:34] people are willing to die and that uh [07:37] and that's why they always encourage the [07:40] people to stay put. Even when Israel [07:42] drops leaflets and warns about about [07:45] bombing in a particular area, they [07:47] encourage the civilian people to stay. [07:50] They don't want them to evacuate because [07:52] they and they've said this openly that [07:54] part of their strategy is to cause [07:56] maximum civilian death so that they can [07:59] blame Israel for it. And this question [08:02] who's causing all of the death is [08:05] actually also a legal question and this [08:06] doesn't get talked about often enough. [08:08] In the Geneva Conventions [08:10] in article 19 it speaks about the [08:12] protection of civilian buildings, [08:15] buildings like hospitals and schools and [08:16] such things. And it says here as [08:18] follows. The protection to which [08:19] civilian hospitals are entitled shall [08:22] not cease unless they are used to commit [08:26] outside their humanitarian duties acts [08:28] harmful to the enemy. [08:31] Okay? And protection may however cease [08:34] only after due warning has been given. [08:38] So what that means is that you know even [08:42] when civilians get killed because Israel [08:45] gives fair warning because Israel drops [08:47] leaflets. Israel announces where they're [08:49] going to be bombing in advance and [08:51] because these buildings these civilian [08:53] areas are used as launching pads. [08:56] They're used as storehouses for weapons. [08:58] They're used as command centers for [09:00] Hamas. And everyone knows this. We're [09:02] very much aware of this. What a lot of [09:03] people don't realize is that according [09:06] to the [clears throat] Geneva [09:06] Conventions, what that means is that [09:10] yes, it's terrible when civilians get [09:11] killed, but the the responsibility even [09:13] legally, it's not just morally, but even [09:16] legally, the responsibility for all the [09:18] civilians who are killed in these [09:20] strikes falls on Kamas. So yes, it's [09:22] terrible that civilians are being killed [09:24] in the Gaza Strip or have been killed in [09:26] the Gaza Strip and the world should be [09:28] angry about that and they should be [09:30] angry at Hamas. And this is the moral [09:32] failing that Mossab is is uh is putting [09:36] out there. And he's attributing it to [09:39] not to stupidity, not to anti-semitism. [09:42] He's he's attributing it to be to [09:45] cowardice that these nations are afraid. [09:47] They're afraid to call out jihad. [09:49] They're afraid to call out Islamism. And [09:52] that is, you know, if if you expand [09:55] that, you pull back the camera, widen [09:56] the lens, look at the whole world, this [09:58] is the moral failing that the that the [10:01] western world needs to overcome. The [10:03] Western world needs to confront itself. [10:05] It's its own worst enemy because it's [10:07] not willing to look jihad in the eye, [10:10] identify it as an enemy, and defeat it. [10:14] So we can only continue to pray that the [10:17] that the world will wake up and push [10:19] back and otherwise, you know, jihad is [10:23] is on the march. So Mosab is a very [10:26] important voice. You got to follow him. [10:27] You got to listen to what he's saying. [10:29] But again, if the West needs to wake up, [10:32] it needs to look jihad in the eye. It [10:34] needs to defeat it. It needs to identify [10:35] Islam as the enemy that it
