Piers Morgan kept uncharacteristically quiet during a cutting 5-minute monologue from Bassem Youssef on the root causes of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict 👇

@ProfSteveKeen Why is it that the people in power never have this level of insight?

Honoring the Memory of Steven Sotloff, of Blessed Memory Today, we remember Steven Sotloff, a courageous Jewish journalist whose life was tragically taken by ISIS a decade ago. His bravery and dedication to truth continue to inspire us. The greatest tribute we can offer is to ensure that terrorist groups like ISIS, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and their ilk are eradicated. Our mission is clear: to make this world safer for all—except those who seek to destroy it through terror. Who stands with us in this fight?

I know. When the camera pans out and you see Piers silent and just listening - that's the most astonishing part of the conversation.

Excellent all European citizens should be required to learn the history of Zionism and the history of Palestine

Israelis have been taught for 75 years to label every Palestinian a terrorist. Practically every Israeli alive knows the drill, so when they bomb a school/ hospital/ refugee camp or ambulance the automatic excuse is the Palestinians there are terrorists.

@TomMarazzo “As you know”, he says to Piers more than once…lol Piers knows nothing other than what his handlers tell him

@Astraea_1974 Stunning.

A fact check article on what bassem yousef said

@planetgolfrview Shame about the subtitles. "Aragon"?

I need to see more from Bassem Youssef. In fact, I think the whole world needs to hear more from him.

@TomMarazzo Yeah…he gets most of it wrong, “forgets” a detail or three and manages to stir it up with just the right people. Also, Piers is an actor. He’s paid to keep you watching. Assigning value to Youssef’s story based on Morgan’s very scripted reaction, is just a little stupid.

Can we go back in time and start at the point when Muslims and Arabs started expanding and conquering other people and land and reverse that?

It's very generous of Bassem Youssef to call Irgun & Stern as "militias" when they were the pioneers of modern terrorism. Bombing King David Hotel and killing Jews...

What country was Palestine before Israel? It wasn't a country, but a group of districts and regional administrations under the Ottoman Empire for over 600 years. “Palestine” was a geographic descriptor that could expand or contract.

Man obviously never read tge Old testament at School. But then I imagine Piers being English would have done. Like to point out that's where the trouble started walls of Jerico ,parting of tge Sea. Ect ect Read it. That's who started this. If you believe there's a God.

Why does NO ONEtalk about Israel 'right to invade' Palestine?

Root cause of the Palestinian problem

When someone is so knowledgeable on the subject and takes it right back, if only we had this type of balanced person in power what a different world we would live in

Bassem is such an intelligent being. I doubt there were very few points (if any) he wanted 2 get across that he didn't manage. He knew exactly how Piers would structure the interview & preempted when/if it steered slightly (like surgery, lol). I watched the whole interview. 👏

Ah, close. Bassem blames Europe & America for getting rid of Jews, pushing them to Palestine. Why doesn’t he say WHY? Why this unique experience of Jews in the world vs every other group? Over 1000 global expulsions. No other group has experienced anything like that. Ask WHY.

👂🧐

I think you're missing the point. Piers always lets his guests have free reign on the "Uncensored" interviews, rarely interrupting when the guest is speaking. The clue is in the name!

So… I would like to hear, those who say Israel is wrong.. what should their response has been? What’s a reasonable response to what was happened? Perhaps their answer is lay on the ground and be ready to have the rest of you slaughtered… that way brown people don’t feel bad.

What is happening is fked up but mentioning the Nakba without refering the multi Arab nation invasion of Israel, indicates a bit of intellectual dishonesty.

R&R now means resources&religion. No rest&relaxation.

Moments before his execution by the Italian colonizer, Omar Almokhtar delivered his immortal words: “We do not surrender. We win or die, and this is not the end. you will have to fight the generations that follow. As for me, my life will be longer than the life of my killer"

He conveniently omits saying that the territory used to be called Judea…

That’s because it was probably a #DeepfakeBassem

History is sometimes unpalatable & mostly written be the victors

How come when Arabs/Muslims expand and conquer other people and lands its all cool but when they lose in wars and conflict they complain about getting it back? Funny how that works.
