Discussion on Human Rights and Self-Defense
Do not stand by anyone or any institution
that violates human rights.
However, what I will say-
Do you accept that Hamas does?
What I, yes, I do, and I will say absolutely 100% without
reservation, I support the right of self-defense.
Without any doubt, I would be involved myself in violent
resistance if I were a citizen of Palestine or Iraq or
Afghanistan. And if I were a citizen of the United States
or Britain
and someone from halfway around the world came into my country and started stealing
my land and killing my family, guess what? I would defend my country as well.
So I absolutely 100% defend the right of self-defense, and I will never
shy away from that. I will not join the long list of
embarrassments who condemn
terrorism while-
And-
... forgetting to acknowledge that the biggest terrorist on the planet
is the
United States government for all this-
Do you accept that-
... terrorism around the world
... Israel has a right to defend itself?
Absolutely, every country does, and it, and that's exactly why the hypocrisy and
the lies of Israel are so transparent.
Are you telling me we don't have the right to defense our- defend ourselves when I
saw dead bodies on that ship, and we were hitting people with bars and sticks?
We don't have the right to defend ourself, but they do, do they?
Hamas doesn't recognize the right of Israel to exist.
You know what that sounds like to me?
That sounds like the African National Congress and Nelson Mandela refusing to
accept apartheid and recognize apartheid.
I say that Israel, if it wants to be a genuine partner in any
kind of peace, needs
to destroy its whole ideology of Zionism, Zionism that makes other
people goyim who do not deserve to be in the holy land. That's the real problem.
Do you accept even-
If Israel will embrace every people-
Do you-
... including Palestinians equally, human rights respected across the board,
then I
would challenge Hamas to change its charter and say,
"We will acknowledge Israel."
But until that time, I see no difference between Nelson Mandela
and Hamas in
refusing to accept apartheid or the Zionist Israeli state.
