00:00I mean, do you believe that a country should be allowed to bar someone on the grounds that they
00:05think that person's presence could inflame tensions in the country? Well, so there's two
00:09answers to that. The first part of that answer is, I'm an American, so I really believe in free
00:14speech. So one of the people that they banned was a person who's a severe anti-Muslim bigot.
00:21So we've covered her comments on the Young Turks before our show. And she says just outrageous
00:28things about Muslims. But for me, since I grew up in an American culture, I think, so what?
00:34Let her say that. And I'll say the opposite. And I'm obviously right. And she's wrong. And it'll
00:39be easy to prove that. So I'm not scared of those bigots. So if it was me, I would let
00:45everyone in
00:46unless they're like threatening violence. Then I get it. Now, everybody's allowed, every country's
00:51allowed to set their own rules. But the question is, are those rules correct? And are the citizens
00:56of that country comfortable with those rules? And given the reaction over the last week in the
01:00United Kingdom, it appears that their citizens are not comfortable with those rules, especially
01:04when it's applied to someone like me, which then gets to the second point. Why am I in the same
01:09bucket as these very significant and avowed and admitted bigots? So I've never said anything bigoted.
01:17I believe that Muslims, Jews, Christians are all the same. And I, by the way, here's an amazing
01:25stat that you never hear. Did you know that 63% of Jewish Americans are against the current Israeli
01:32government? Now, the media never tells you that, because they have to pretend that they're not
01:38protecting Israel, but that they're protecting Jewish civilians. That's not true at all. They want to,
01:43the Israeli government wants to hide behind anti-Semitism. They want to weaponize that charge
01:49and use it as a tool to bash all of their critics and their enemies. But wait, are 63%
01:56the majority of
01:57Jewish Americans anti-Semitic? Of course not. You see how it's weaponized? And in the case of all the
02:04other people who were banned, I don't believe any of them said about, you know, got banned for
02:09criticizing any particular country. They went after races, religions, and different things that
02:15they did. And I don't know all of their cases. But in my case, they were very specific. You've been
02:21naughty. You've criticized the all-powerful Israel. And I appreciate that, basically, their confession.
02:28And it was a very ironic confession. How dare you say we're controlled by Israel? You offended Israel,
02:34so we'll ban you. Well, you proved my point. Thank you. I appreciate it.
