Analysis of Western Liberal Perspectives
The Western liberal mind, um,
uh, conceives of itself as being, um, good because
it's liberal. The Western liberal tells him or herself,
"I'm a good person
because I'm liberal, and I'm liberal because I'm a good person,
which means that I
believe in things like the brotherhood of man, um,
conscience and compassion, uh, looking after the, uh, the wretched
of the world, the poor, the wretched of the world,
standing up against
abuses of power. These are all good things,
and that's why I'm a liberal,
and I'm a liberal because of all these good things.
So
one of the expressions of my goodness and my liberalism is that I
support the Palestinian Arabs, uh, who I think
are an oppressed people, and they are oppressed by the
Israelis who have taken their land away from them, and
they are oppressing them." Now, every part of that, in my view, is a lie.
But put that to one side. This is what the liberal progressive thinks.
And the liberal progressive thinks that supporting the
Palestinians is therefore something that makes the liberal progressive a
good person.
October 7 happened,
and suddenly you have a situation in which the people that the liberal
progressive has supported as being oppressed, and everything
they do is a legitimate defense or resistance-
Mm
... against oppression. Suddenly, we can see
that those people have turned into the most
bloodthirsty savages that could ever be imagined.
Not just people who kill, but who slaughter
in a sadistic, barbaric, uh,
debauched, and depraved fashion
that people can't imagine ever happening.
They have
slaughtered,
raped,
beheaded,
tortured,
burned alive
babies, children, women,
elderly men, and others.
And
as a result, the liberal progressive is faced with this nightmare situation in
which the people that they have supported as being
oppressed and good people
because they're, they're victims
are these savages, and the people they have represented as
oppressors
are the victims. They can't have that, because if they have that, if they
admit that that is the case, then their entire worldview is
shattered because the people, you know,
the, the, the cause they have supported as
representing goodness
is shown to be evil. And what does that make them?
It makes them evil. So they can't have it.
So what do they do? They go to extraordinary lengths
to pretend that black is white, that justice is
injustice, that oppression is resistance, and vice
versa. So they have to represent the Israelis as
being at
fault. The Israelis are to blame for what's happened.
So there is no better way of, of, of blaming people than
accusing them of the very thing they are the victim of.
Projection.
Projection. So you accuse them of genocide.
We hear it also regularly, the Israelis are accused of being Nazis.
Um, it's the same thing. It's not simply an offensive thing.
It's a very deliberate thing, because if the Israelis are Nazis, then,
then, then we are free. We, the liberal West, are
free, uh, of any kind of guilt, uh, or any kind of
association with bad things because they are to blame.
They are the people who are bad. Um, and so we are free to continue
with our fantasies of us being good people.
And I think that's also what lay behind these amazing scenes that we
saw on social media of people
with their hands tearing down-
The posters
... the posters of the hostages. Now, you have to ask yourself, what's going
through the mind of someone like that?
These weren't posters advertising Israel.
They weren't advertising the Israeli Defense Forces.
They were pictures of babies, of children, of women
who had been kidnapped by bloodthirsty monsters, by savage, depraved
savages, and were being a- almost certainly
subjected to untold horrors,
and yet they were torn down, and the faces of the
people tearing them down were contorted very often with rage
and hate. And you have to ask yourself, "What's going on in the mind of that
person?" And it seemed to me that they were, that, that, that
they were-- they, they had to literally, with their fingernails,
tear it out of sight.
It was something that could not be tolerated to be in
existence at all. The very concept of the Israeli
babies and children as victims of the people they had been supporting,
because it contradicted the narrative on which they had hung their own
moral worth.
And it seemed to me also they were tearing the Jews out,
trying to tear the Jewish people completely out
of their world, out of their sight, out of their world, out
of their minds, out of their thoughts, and out of their consciences.
That's to me what it represented. And this whole inversion of
genocide thing is part of that. It
is not just disgusting. It is not just
ridiculous. It's evil,
and I think it is a symptom of the evil
paths into which the West has fallen, uh, through
its embrace of a whole range of ideologies, a whole range of
thinking which, um, I think has come to define,
uh, what we call the liberal progressive West.
