@@robertmacdonaldch5105 One has to wonder how Michael Knowles still has a job given how often he makes a complete fool of Ben by just generally being a more intelligent, politically-savvy human being. People have been fired from DW for less.
My son was walking past the tv when the Axios thing played and had a mini SEIZURE. He got up when the podcast started playing and HIT THE GRIDDY out of the living room saying “boring not my problem”
A lot of people don't know this but the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Hamas's rival and sometimes ally in Gaza and the West Bank, was founded by a Greek Orthodox Christian named George Habash who was displeased with the direction the Palestinian Liberation Organization was taking.
Except one of the parties in this conflict has one of the most powerful, well connected lobby groups in DC that literally just helped pass Euro-style hate speech laws.
@@Iron_Wyvern The notion that political Is-lm is somehow a natural ally and not a major threat is insane on its face. It's a weird kind of Stockholm syndrome to take sides with the same people trying unapologetically to grape your women and take over your homelands. BAP is right about Is-lm. Although it has many admirable qualities, on a societal level it is dogmatic, brutish and stifling in a way that Westerners will never be able to tolerate. Travel through the ME if you don't believe me, and see if it's a place you'd like to live. Then have a good think about why that is.
@@_GOD_HAND_I mean T777 has never said diversity was a good thing or people should have to live among them. He has literally called wh*te people the "master caste", so I don't think he is advocating M*slims living in the West. He is simply saying that Isl*m is a natural en*my to j-ism.
@@Iron_Wyvernhistorically this isn’t even really true. In the past they’ve got along quite well. The same cannot be said of either group in relation to Christendom. In any society where they exist together and Christians aren’t on top, for other 2 victimize and parasitize Christians.
1. How do you reconcile the fact the US is pressuring Israel to accept a Palestinian state in order to facilitate the creation of an Israeli - Saudi led Middle Eastern”NATO”. A Palestinian state would obviously be a threat to Israel’s security and something everyone there is pretty much against. 2. The idea of prosperous isolationism, and of peace more broadly, is false. There is always people willing to use force to take what you have. You can never rest, forever fighting. Accepting this will change the way you experience nationalism. This struggle holds society together, with porpoise, viral. The nation, your people, the land are not material and mundane they are eternal, holy. and what makes them special is that they are earned. That’s dark but also hopeful, as people find meaning. The hard times are coming, and you know what they make.
Modern Nationalism is heresy and they are not eternal, they rise and they fall, this paganistic cult that reduces transcendental values to a reductionist obsession with "muh pure blood and blonde hair" is a recent phenomenon. Ethnogenesis is the result of a Religious Revelation not an end in itself or an object of veneration in itself, National Identity is important but it's not the highest level of the hierarchy and the modern low social class mass movement concept of it is not a conservative at all and never existed before the French Revolution as Identities were governed by higher powers that rendered them not completely fluid and not completely rigid (semi-porous), but after Nominalism categories and identities become separated and this culminated in Modern Categorical Western pattern of thinking which is unsophisticated and anti-civilizational. The notion of eternal warfare as an end in itself is also a recent Darwinian myth as no state can survive constant warfare, in the pre-modern era warfare wasn't as common as people believed as even the Mongols after the conquest stabilized the region which enabled a decently long period of peace and prosperity.
Anti-Zionism was also state ideology for the Western backed Arab states since they were created, important context here. Islam isn’t a sufficient doctrine to rule Arab nations, and if you look at the sequence of events the Islamic Revolution was reacting to US involvement in Afghanistan, they knew the CIA was letting the cat out of the bag. Persian nationalism though is a stronger force than Islam is in Iran and this will be the last Ayatollah. Go listen to people like Jason Jorjani to understand the dynamics going on longer term there.
@@andredubois4601 ah. Well that's to T's big detriment. How does he square BAP's rabid zionist supremacism with his own pro-Arabism? Not mention BAP's grotesque, affectatious speech mannerisms and the obsessive body building homo stuff. Meh. Never was that much of a T fan anyway.
