00:00As I watched my eyes filled with tears. On Twitter I watched protests by young people at universities in America. As I watched my eyes filled with tears. Some are atheists, some Jewish, some Christian, some Muslim. Young people standing firm joined the protests. Despite being told, give us the names of these young people. When they graduate we will not offer them job opportunities in our companies.
00:23Even though professors at universities knew they would lose their jobs and they would be fired they still showed up in these protests continuing this support for Gaza. If you remember at Harvard University after October 7th the dean was fired. Yale University again a very prestigious university they also fired the dean and interrogated her. Knowing all of these those young people still stand tall and continue to support Gaza and fight against Zionist Israel. I was very touched by this.
00:52Those united voices, those voices that have come together and united echo in the university courtyards. And now many universities in America are in turmoil with protests escalating. They are bringing police into Columbia University where normally by their policy police do not enter universities. This time the next day five to ten times more young people participated. It's like they're saying we don't care about whether or not we get jobs when we graduate. There is oppression and we will not allow it to be funded with our taxes they shout.
01:21So the main question is why are there more protests in America because we know that America is Israel's biggest supporter. Actually I looked at the numbers and I saw a shocking figure. I looked into how much support America has provided to Israel in its history, researched it and looked at the data. Up to the year 2023 America's support for Israel has reached 300 billion dollars. So there is such a power behind it and people are disturbed by this. Through my taxes you are killing Palestinians innocents.
01:51Friends. Friends. Over 30,000 people have died and 70% of them are women and children. So people say a child died. Why? I don't want my taxes to be used for this. And America has major problems. Homelessness. People are sleeping on the streets. Healthcare is very expensive so is renting issues. Education is already paid. Not free. People can't get proper education. Well we have so many problems. What are you doing with our taxes?
02:21Let's think. I went and bought a coffee. So what happened with the tax from this? Where did the tax go indirectly? There is support for Israel. So it went to support Israel. And from there a bullet was fired and struck a Palestinian child in the heart.
02:51People of conscience. People of conscience. People of conscience who are shouting in the streets. It's not easy friends. There are 78,000 injured people who have lost arms, legs and eyes. 2.5 million people have been displaced from their homes. 220,000 homes have been destroyed. And hunger, famine, all kinds of troubles.
03:09I mean forget about electricity, water, all that. People are living on the brink of hunger and famine. And there is a devil behind these in the world. But on the other hand, seeing these justice seeking people, one can't help but think, could it be possible that the sun might rise from the west? The things we've been told about the sun rising from the west, can they have such a meaning? Is it a metaphor? Bediouzaman Said Nursi once mentioned in one of his works, the Ottoman Empire is pregnant with a European state. One day it will give birth.
03:38I think when he mentioned Europe, he meant Europe and America. Europe too is pregnant with an Ottoman state and one day it will give birth. Maybe these are the signs of the beginning of something. And I have seen more convert videos now on Instagram, YouTube, everywhere than I have ever seen before.
03:56It's almost unbelievable how much after the events in Gaza, people have started showing interest in Islam. The determination of the people of Gaza has inspired so many people.
04:07So these could be signs that it's time for some big changes. There is a woman named Medea Benjamin. She's an activist. Perhaps you remember, she had an action called Bloody Hands.
04:16While the US Minister of Foreign Affairs was making a statement, they stood up with their hands painted red and made a Bloody Hands protest right there like,
04:25You're supporting this with my taxes. I don't want it. I watched an interview of this woman and it really moved me. Every day, this woman and her supporters are doing this. You know the Blinken, the Minister of Foreign Affairs?
04:36Every morning when he leaves his home and every evening when he returns, protesters are there. Red paint the color of blood. They constantly pour it in front of his eyes.
04:44What they're trying to say is, this blood, the blood of 30,000 people, of babies, of children, it's on your hands, they remind him.
04:51When I first saw that protest, I said, how meaningful. You're splashing blood on their streets, constantly painting them red.
04:57The woman is fighting and says in her interview, what I see every day is ruining me.
05:01I can't sleep at night thinking about the children, the mothers, world leaders talk to each other as if nothing has happened.
05:06Every time I drink clean water, when I go to bed at night, I think of the people in Gaza who are deprived of this.
05:12As a global community, we are cruel, we have failed, we have lost our humanity, we have lost the ability to be human.
05:19My taxes are used for this and this makes me feel guilty. This is what millions of Americans are feeling right now. Guilty.
05:27Harvard University, Brown University, University of Michigan, University of Texas. Look at this.
05:32People of every color, every religion, every person with a conscience is supporting.
05:37Sure, a Christian without a conscience might not support.
05:40A Muslim without a conscience might say, I don't care. But is this what Islam is about?
05:45If our Prophet, peace be upon him, were alive today, would he remain silent about all that is happening?
05:50Or would he remain silent towards those who are silent?
05:53At Yale University, which is one of the most prestigious universities, so its graduates will be very well positioned.
05:59But they don't care. They really don't. Look, they say it frankly.
06:02You know, the Zionist lobby is so powerful, they can do something to you so if they want, they can get you fired.
06:08For example, they fired the Dean of Harvard University and the Dean of Yale University.
06:13But the students don't care because they have a conscience.
06:16You see, a conscience is such a thing that it bothers you when you see something wrong.
06:21It doesn't let you sleep. It keeps you awake. So you take action.
06:24And there's this other side of things. It's like the issue of Gaza is seen as a Muslim issue.
06:28Especially among some secular people, but not all.
06:32Some people say, Gaza is a Muslim issue, not relevant to us, so they are religious and conservative people.
06:38No, that's not the case.
06:40Those participating in these protests are atheists, Christians, Jews and humans.
06:45Do you see what I mean? There's this discomfort.
06:47Look, at Yale University, they're being arrested and walking out smiling.
06:51I was so moved by this video. They were handcuffed behind their backs.
06:56They're smiling. People are clapping. Look at that courage, brother.
06:58Korea is the world. We don't care. We are people of conscience.
07:01For example, here is someone handcuffed, a Muslim, and it's time for prayer.
07:05He is handcuffed, brother, but still praying. And they've entered the Senate cafeteria.
07:10You know there's a famine issue now, right? But still, people in the Senate eat good food.
07:14They say, until Gaza can eat, we will not look away. Palestine will be free.
07:19And together, they surround the cafeteria.
07:21Palestine will be free. We will not look away. Palestine will be free.
07:25There's the oranges, fruits, foods. Because of your actions, people are living on the starvation line.
07:30We are here, they say. We pray for Gaza. We pray for Gaza to have food.
07:35Not for bombs, but for food. The Congress and its staff will not eat today until Gaza can.
07:41I don't know. Do you also feel moved by this?
07:43So people who haven't lost their humanity say, that's the humanity.
07:46An 88-year-old Holocaust survivor participates in the protests.
07:50At 88 years old, she says, I am here because as a child, I experienced everything the children in Gaza are going through today.
07:56There is just no explanation for the massacre of 15,000 children.
08:01I am 88 years old and a civil rights activist.
08:05This is very interesting as well.
08:07In America, at Ohio University, by the way, they've set up snipers in Ohio.
08:11There's severe police intervention. They handcuffed the head of the philosophy department at a university.
08:16There's an incredible use of force by the police.
08:18What's going on? Brother, these people have no guns, nothing.
08:21It's a university, a place of freedom.
08:23But the intervention is so harsh. And now the situation is starting to reverse.
08:27I mean, people are beginning to wake up.
08:29Well, what's going on? Why are you so harsh, so strict on this issue?
08:32Why do you support Israel more than any other country?
08:34Why is Israel so important to you?
08:36Look here, brother, it's time for Muslims to pray.
08:38And they need to pray.
08:40And people who are probably not Muslims are protecting them from the police.
08:43And they're saying, let them pray.
08:45Leave them so that they can pray, worship and make their duas.
08:48This sums up everything.
08:49People are protecting the barricade and the police are pressuring.
08:52It's like they're about to march on those praying.
08:54These people don't have guns or rifles.
08:56These people are not terrorists, brother.
08:58What's your problem?
09:00Let's continue.
09:01Here, Jews have come together and joined the protest.
09:04So actually, this is not something including all Jews.
09:07There's a Zionist mindset currently committing these brutality in Palestine
09:11and Jews from many different parts of the world are disturbed by all this.
09:14After seeing all of these, when you see people of conscience
09:17and many people who have become Muslims on Instagram like Americans, British, Portuguese and Spanish
09:23converting from Christianity, Judaism, Atheism to Islam.
09:27Actually, we have a friend who does the Spanish dubbing for our channel.
09:31He was a Christian and then he converted to Islam.
09:34After these events in Gaza, there's been a real awakening.
09:37As a person, we naturally think like this.
09:39Wait a minute.
09:40Is the sun starting to rise from the West?
09:42Is something going to happen?
09:43The outcry from the people in the West.
09:45The conversions to Islam.
09:47The emergence of people with conscience.
09:49Is it time for things to start changing?
09:51Firstly, we need to know this.
09:53Islam has two aspects.
09:54The first one is the aspect of worship.
09:56Harams, Halals, prayers and supplications.
09:59And the other is the Islamic ethics in social life.
10:02Now you see a person, yes, Muslims worshipping, praying, fasting, all of it.
10:08But they haven't embraced the ethical aspect of Islam.
10:11So here and there they do nonsensical things that don't fit Islam at all.
10:15Breaking people's hearts.
10:16Ethically, they have no empathy, nothing.
10:18Well, is this right though?
10:19Was our Prophet peace be upon him like that?
10:21No.
10:22Our Prophet peace be upon him showed both his ethical nature and his devotion to worship.
10:27He was so considerate that he would visit a child's home to express condolences for a dead bird.
10:33Look, he would go to offer condolences for a bird showing his deep kindness.
10:36Now, well, what's happening in the West?
10:38We see that people who have the characteristics of Islamic ethics are appearing.
10:42And after learning about Islam, they are taking Shahada and becoming Muslims.
10:46In Islam, they discover all these miracles of the Quran and they look into it.
10:50Then they say, yes, this must the Book of our Creator and take their Shahada and become Muslims.
10:55Here, I'm not just making these up.
10:57If you go on YouTube and simply type converts to Islam, you'll see more videos than you can scroll down.
11:02For example, there's someone named Sean King, an activist, who was deeply influenced by Malcolm X.
11:08He wasn't Muslim until the Gaza events.
11:10Of course, he knew about Islam and was interested.
11:12But after the Gaza events, there's a video of him taking his Shahada in a mosque.
11:17This man has over 4 million followers on Instagram, which got suspended by Instagram
11:22and probably about 1 million followers on Twitter now, so he's a phenomenon.
11:26And this man used to be a founder of a church in Atlanta.
11:29I looked into his past, and now he's converted and become a Muslim.
11:33This says that there's a sun rising from the West.
11:35It's right, isn't it?
11:36Is Islam our private property?
11:38People living in the Middle East?
11:39No, if we don't appreciate its values and those truths,
11:42Islam will go and spread all over the world through the hands of people in the West.
11:46It's not mortgage to us.
11:47Then, there's also the issue of anti-Semitism.
11:50For those who might not know, anti-Semitism means this.
11:53Hostility against Judaism and Jewish people.
11:55It's a term that shows prejudice and discrimination.
11:58You know, during World War II when Hitler slaughtered Jews, anti-Semitism emerged there.
12:03Jews said against Hitler,
12:04You're an anti-Semit, you're enemies of the Jews.
12:06And under this label, Jews began to take refuge.
12:09Those attacking or insulting them and those labeled as anti-Semites began to be punished.
12:14Yes, at that time, Jews were definitely oppressed and there were anti-Semites,
12:18but Israel uses this label so effectively.
12:21For instance, in these recent events when universities were in turmoil and Israel kept making statements,
12:27because not just double, not just five times, but ten times the crowds started growing.
12:32And the more they got suppressed, the bigger the crowds became.
12:36And then Netanyahu makes a statement like,
12:38Anti-Semitic actions?
12:39You're enemies of the Jews?
12:40And so on?
12:41Wait a minute.
12:42Aren't you the ones killing 30,000 innocent people, displacing 2.5 million people of Gaza from their homes,
12:49leaving them on the starvation line, blocking aid from entering?
12:53When we say these things, do we now become enemies of the Jews?
12:56How does that work?
12:57So he robs the house and then suppresses the homeowner.
12:59Now, when I say 30,000 people died, 70% of them were women and children.
13:03What are you doing?
13:042.5 million people were displaced because of you.
13:06You bombed their homes and you destroyed two and 20,000 homes.
13:09Do I become an enemy of the Jews?
13:10You're an enemy of the Jews.
13:11Jews are being oppressed.
13:12Brother, 78,000 people are injured.
13:14Right now, we are witnessing a genocide.
13:16In the past, when genocide was happening in history,
13:19but later when the magnitude of the event was realized,
13:22those who committed genocide didn't say,
13:24We are committing genocide.
13:25But then, when they saw how severe the event was,
13:28they realized that they were part of a genocide years later during their trials.
