Discussion on Israel and U.S. Politics

You know, I thought it was good that he moved the capital of Israel to

Jerusalem,

and if he does something-

That you mean-

In, in the, in the new term-

Yeah. The, uh-

That I-

The embassy. But, but what, uh-

The embassy

... but now what, what do you, what do you like about that,

just out of curiosity?

Jerusalem?

Yeah.

Well, it's been the Jewish capital for, like, 2,500 years.

2,500 years, yeah.

You know.

No, I'm, I'm legitimately curious.

Oh, okay.

I'm not, I'm not... This isn't a gotcha.

I mean, there's no-

I'm not trying to...

There's no, there's no reason why...

Every other country-

Right

... in the world gets to have their capital

where they want it.

Mm-hmm.

And every American administration promised they would do it, and then just pocket

vetoed it and forgot about it for four years.

But, you see, the problem is, listen to your own language.

You're just spouting Israeli propaganda.

Why are you saying Jerusalem?

East Jerusalem is occupied Palestinian territory under

international law.

That was the ruling of the International Court of Justice in July

2004, and if you look at the Goldstone Report

that just came

out a month ago, they refer to East Jerusalem as occupied

Palestinian territory. But now you've given over Jerusalem to the

Israelis. You're just repeating Israeli propaganda.

They have no title under international law to East Jerusalem.

Just as a general point,

I find it rather amusing when I hear Bill Maher

pontificating about... If you see the longer clip

about Byzantium, about the Roman

Empire,

about Muslim expansion,

he knows as much about these topics

as Joy Behar.

The only difference between him and Ms.

Behar is she reads her factoids off of

index cards, while he reads them off of a monitor,

and neither of them is, in my opinion, particularly funny,

and I find it in very poor taste

in the midst of an, of a genocide,

making these rather impoverished attempts at humor,

where half the audience laughing uproariously

sounds as if they were paid to laugh.

But let's leave all that aside,

and let's get to the factual matters.

The fact of the matter is... And I have to tell you,

I, I watched a Bill Maher segment this

morning, and several

times I had to just,

you know, take a breath, because he's such an ignorant sack of

shit. Uh, it just nauseates me when I'm

listening to this.

He hasn't a clue what the history is. He really doesn't know anything.

This is the reason Bill Maher doesn't want kids to go to college.

He says it's a waste of time. Yeah, in college you learn that before you

speak your mind, you should actually know a few facts.

You're supposed to re- read books, not just have note cards

passed to you.

So what are the facts?

And I would... I'm perfectly willing now to say to Bill

Maher to his

face, "If you disagree with me, have me on your program.

Have me on your program, and we'll go through it step by step."

Bill Maher is a complete imbecile, uh, who pretends...

He thinks because he's wearing horn-rimmed glasses, he thinks he's an

intellectual. No.

Uh, just donning warm, horn-rimmed glasses doesn't make you an

intellectual. He just, uh, posts these

factoids. He hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

The other one who's a moron is Jordan Peterson.

You know, he's got nice hair plugs. I'll grant him that.

But beyond that, come on.

This is not serious.

Yeah.

He says... He's interviewed by Jor- uh, by, uh,

uh, what's his name? Piers Morgan.

And Piers Morgan says, "So, Mr. Peterson, can you

tell us what happened on October 7th?" And he says,

"Well, what happened was the mullahs in Iran

were losing power,

and so they decided to rattle the chain of Hamas,

and Hamas launched the attack." It was like,

what are you talking about?

All the intelligence information shows that neither Hezbollah nor

Iran even knew the attack was going to happen.

What, what are you talking about?

This Ben Shapiro, this Jordan Peterson, this

Bill Maher,

they're so full of themselves, so full of themselves.

Now, look, if you're very smart, I can accept you're full of yourself.

You know, it's an achievement. I wish you were more humble, but okay.

But to be full of yourself and you don't have a clue what you're

talking about,

it's so revolting.
