  1. 2:22:00 - “what happened with they holocaust was clearly a genocide… if they could have gotten to Jews outside of Europe, they would have murdered them” With Nazi literature published in Arabic throughout the North Africa & Middle East, in partnership with The Muslim Brotherhood, and Hamas claiming in their charter to have come from those roots, the murder of Jews in North Africa and Middle East was happening at the same time and continue to this day.

  2. 3:13:10 - “when I hear Donald Trump and others arguing that immigration is a terrible thing” Donald Trump never said that. Donald Trump said illegal immigration is bad, and that immigration is good. Donald Trump Trump was the first President with an immigrant wife, for decades, maybe 100 years?

  3. 2:09:13 - “not like Hamas attacked because they were a bunch of anti-semites who wanted to kill Jews. This is not Nazi Germany” You are absolutely wrong on this point. There have been ample audio clips of people from Hamas bragging about how many Jews they killed. There have been ample video clips of babies & civilians killed by people from Hamas. The charter from Hamas is filled with Quranic statements regarding killing Jews. The Hamas charter claims Muslim Brotherhood origins, whose organization was bound to WW2’s losing side, where the MB leader was hosted in Germany, and raised 2 divisions of Muslim soldiers in the Balkan. The UN offered two groups to be stood up as two nations. Hamas & others did not want to allow Israel to stand up as a nation. Now they want to destroy them, as per the opening section of the Hamas Charter. No sir, you are objectively wrong, and I am not Jewish. They both need their nations stood up in reasonable safety.

  4. 2:27:45 - “after 9/11… turn the other cheek” This is the Christian command for individual responses, love your enemy. The Government role is to bear the sword, to not show favoritism for the rich or poor. The dominate groups in Palestine or Israel are not Christians.

  5. 2:55:22 - “Soviets were realists to the core… ideology did not matter much…” Soviets offered aid when nations implemented socialist reforms. Those reforms resulted in starvation in places like Ethiopia, Egypt, etc.
