00:02:12,165 --> 00:02:13,299

78
00:02:15,168 --> 00:02:15,802

THIS IN AN ORGANIZED FASHION,

80
00:02:18,304 --> 00:02:18,872
ALMOST IMMEDIATELY LINING UP

129
00:03:45,825 --> 00:03:46,393
STOOPING THAT LOW, THEY WERE

130
00:03:46,393 --> 00:03:46,993
REACHING FOR DESPERATE ATTACKS

131
00:03:46,993 --> 00:03:47,293
LIKE THESE.

132
00:03:47,293 --> 00:03:50,530
YOU KNOW, A MAJOR LIABILITY

00:03:50,530 --> 00:03:52,065
FOR KAMALA HARRIS, SHE WANTS TO

134

BAN PLASTIC STRAWS.

SHE WANTS TO BAN MY PLASTIC

I LOVE MY PLASTIC STRAWS, I HATE

138
00:03:57,537 --> 00:03:58,471
THOSE PAPER ONES.

139
00:03:58,471 --> 00:04:00,740
KAMALA CAN'T HAVE MY GUNS.

140
00:04:00,740 --> 00:04:01,274

00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:01,508
ENGINE.

142
00:04:01,508 --> 00:04:02,275
AND SHE SURE AS HELL CAN'T HAVE

143
00:04:02,275 --> 00:04:04,944
MY STEAKS AND CHEESEBURGERS.

144
00:04:04,944 --> 00:04:06,212
SHE IS A RADICAL CALIFORNIA

145
00:04:06,212 --> 00:04:07,681
LEFTIST.

146
00:04:07,681 --> 00:04:09,949
John: THAT'S ALMOST A PARODY

147
00:04:09,949 --> 00:04:11,351
OF RIGHT-WING FEARMONGERING.

148
00:04:11,351 --> 00:04:12,252
"SHE'LL TAKE YOUR STRAWS, SHE'LL

149

IF YOU LIKE EATING YOUR BURGERS

151
00:04:15,021 --> 00:04:15,655
THROUGH A STRAW, SAY GOODBYE TO

152
00:04:15,655 --> 00:04:22,328
YOUR WHOLE LIFE."

153
00:04:22,328 --> 00:04:22,962
FOR THE RECORD: HARRIS IS NOT A

154
00:04:22,962 --> 00:04:24,230
"RADICAL CALIFORNIA LEFTIST."

155
00:04:24,230 --> 00:04:25,498
SHE WAS A PROSECUTOR.

156
00:04:25,498 --> 00:04:27,634
IF DICK WOLF THINKS YOUR JOB IS

157
00:04:27,634 --> 00:04:28,234
HEROIC AND NOBLE, CHANCES ARE

158
00:04:28,234 --> 00:04:30,537
YOU'RE NOT LEADING THE

159
00:04:30,537 --> 00:04:30,837
REVOLUTION.

160
00:04:30,837 --> 00:04:32,105
AND EVEN IF SHE WERE, THAT

161
00:04:32,105 --> 00:04:33,406
DOESN'T TRANSLATE TO "STEALING

162
00:04:33,406 --> 00:04:36,843
PEOPLE'S CHEESEBURGERS."

163
00:04:36,843 --> 00:04:37,410
THAT'S THE HAMBURGLAR, TED.

164
00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:37,877
YOU'RE THINKING OF THE

165
00:04:37,877 --> 00:04:38,878
HAMBURGLAR.

166
00:04:38,878 --> 00:04:40,513
BUT ALL IN ALL, IT WAS A PRETTY

167
00:04:40,513 --> 00:04:41,681
GOOD WEEK FOR THE CURRENT VICE

168
00:04:41,681 --> 00:04:42,916
PRESIDENT-- AND A PRETTY

169
00:04:42,916 --> 00:04:45,018
TERRIBLE ONE FOR TRUMP'S PICK TO

170
00:04:45,018 --> 00:04:46,353
BE HIS NEXT ONE: JD VANCE.

171
00:04:46,353 --> 00:04:46,986
BECAUSE HE SPENT THE WEEK ON THE

172
00:04:46,986 --> 00:04:48,388
CAMPAIGN TRAIL, WHERE HIS

173
00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:52,292
PERFORMANCE WAS, TO SAY THE

174
00:04:52,292 --> 00:04:53,326
LEAST, UNDERWHELMING.

175
00:04:53,326 --> 00:04:53,893
DEMOCRATS SAY THAT IT IS

176
00:04:53,893 --> 00:04:55,929
RACIST TO BELIEVE-- WELL, THEY

177
00:04:55,929 --> 00:04:57,397
SAY IT'S RACIST TO DO ANYTHING.

178
00:04:57,397 --> 00:05:00,066
I HAD A DIET MOUNTAIN DEW

179
00:05:00,066 --> 00:05:00,834
YESTERDAY, AND ONE TODAY, I'M

180
00:05:00,834 --> 00:05:01,668
SURE THEY'RE GONNA CALL THAT

181
00:05:01,668 --> 00:05:04,304
RACIST, TOO.

182
00:05:04,304 --> 00:05:07,774
BUT IT'S GOOD.

183
00:05:07,774 --> 00:05:09,843
[LAUGHS]

184
00:05:09,843 --> 00:05:16,916
I LOVE YOU GUYS.

185
00:05:17,217 --> 00:05:18,084
John: STOP IT, STOP IT NOW.

186
00:05:18,084 --> 00:05:18,752
IT PHYSICALLY HURTS ME

187
00:05:18,752 --> 00:05:19,319
TO WATCH THAT.

188
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:20,453
THE VIBE THERE IS LESS "RUNNING

189
00:05:20,453 --> 00:05:22,655
FOR VICE PRESIDENT" AND MORE

190
00:05:22,655 --> 00:05:23,289
"SHITTING THE BED AT AN OPEN MIC

191
00:05:23,289 --> 00:05:25,091
NIGHT."

192
00:05:25,091 --> 00:05:25,892
THAT MAKES JEB'S "PLEASE CLAP"

193
00:05:25,892 --> 00:05:27,160
LOOK LIKE SHOWTIME AT THE

194
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,828
APOLLO.

195
00:05:28,828 --> 00:05:30,563
PEOPLE ARE GETTING A LOOK AT

196
00:05:30,563 --> 00:05:31,564
JD VANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME, AND

197
00:05:31,564 --> 00:05:32,265
WHAT'S BECOMING CLEAR FROM

198
00:05:32,265 --> 00:05:34,067
POLLING COMPARING HIM TO

199
00:05:34,067 --> 00:05:35,335
PREVIOUS VP CANDIDATES IS THAT

200
00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:36,136
VOTERS ARE NOT LIKING WHAT

201
00:05:36,136 --> 00:05:37,504
THEY'RE SEEING.

202
00:05:37,504 --> 00:05:38,505
WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE NET

203
00:05:38,505 --> 00:05:40,407
FAVORABLE RATINGS FOR A

204
00:05:40,407 --> 00:05:41,508
JD VANCE.

205
00:05:41,508 --> 00:05:42,208
THAT'S FAVORABLE MINUS

206
00:05:42,208 --> 00:05:43,476
UNFAVORABLE.

207
00:05:43,476 --> 00:05:44,544
IT'S A NEGATIVE NET TERRITORY.

208
00:05:44,544 --> 00:05:45,078
LOOK AT THAT NEGATIVE SIX

209
00:05:45,078 --> 00:05:46,413
POINTS.

210
00:05:46,413 --> 00:05:47,047
THAT IS UNDERWATER, THE AVERAGE

211
00:05:47,047 --> 00:05:52,018
SINCE 2000 IS PLUS 19 POINTS,

212
00:05:52,018 --> 00:05:53,353
J.D. VANCE MAKING HISTORY IN THE

213
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:56,156
COMPLETELY WRONG WAY.

214
00:05:56,156 --> 00:05:56,690
John: YEAH, NOT GREAT!

215
00:05:56,690 --> 00:05:57,924
AND I REALIZE IT'S NOT THE

216
00:05:57,924 --> 00:05:59,926
POINT, BUT THIS FEELS LIKE THE

217
00:05:59,926 --> 00:06:00,527
WRONG PHOTO TO ACCOMPANY THAT

218
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:04,664
RATING.

219
00:06:04,664 --> 00:06:05,198
THAT'S AN EXPRESSION THAT

220
00:06:05,198 --> 00:06:05,899
SCREAMS, "EVERYTHING'S GOING

221
00:06:05,899 --> 00:06:07,734
GREAT!"

222
00:06:07,734 --> 00:06:08,668
NOT "I'M SO UNLIKABLE THAT IT

223
00:06:08,668 --> 00:06:09,903
MADE THE NEWS."

224
00:06:09,903 --> 00:06:10,403
AND WHILE SOME OF THAT

225
00:06:10,403 --> 00:06:12,272
NEGATIVITY MIGHT BE A RESPONSE

226
00:06:12,272 --> 00:06:13,173
TO VANCE'S DEMEANOR, IT MIGHT

227
00:06:13,173 --> 00:06:14,441
ALSO BE THAT PEOPLE ARE LEARNING

228
00:06:14,441 --> 00:06:16,009
WHAT HE STANDS FOR.

229
00:06:16,009 --> 00:06:17,177
HE'S ARGUED THE LAST ELECTION

230
00:06:17,177 --> 00:06:21,414
WAS STOLEN FROM TRUMP, AND HE'S

231
00:06:21,414 --> 00:06:26,586
SUPPORTED A FEDERAL ABORTION

232
00:06:26,586 --> 00:06:28,822
BAN.

233
00:06:28,822 --> 00:06:35,895
AND FOR SPEECH RAPE AND INCEST.

234
00:06:37,163 --> 00:06:37,697
HE'S ARGUED THE LAST ELECTION

235
00:06:37,697 --> 00:06:38,331
WAS STOLEN FROM TRUMP, AND HE'S

236
00:06:38,331 --> 00:06:38,965
ALSO ARGUED THAT, BECAUSE KAMALA

237
00:06:38,965 --> 00:06:39,499
HARRIS AND OTHER DEMOCRATS

238
00:06:39,499 --> 00:06:40,033
DIDN'T HAVE CHILDREN, THEY

239
00:06:40,033 --> 00:06:40,700
DIDN'T HAVE, QUOTE, ANY PHYSICAL

240
00:06:40,700 --> 00:06:41,368
COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE OF THIS

241
00:06:41,368 --> 00:06:41,901
COUNTRY"-- AN ARGUMENT HE

242
00:06:41,901 --> 00:06:43,269
ELABORATED ON TO TUCKER CARLSON.

243
00:06:43,269 --> 00:06:43,903
WE'RE EFFECTIVELY RUN IN THIS

244
00:06:43,903 --> 00:06:44,537
COUNTRY, VIA THE DEMOCRATS, VIA

245
00:06:44,537 --> 00:06:45,405
OUR CORPORATE OLIGARCHS, BY A

246
00:06:45,405 --> 00:06:46,006
BUNCH OF CHILDLESS CAT LADIES

247
00:06:46,006 --> 00:06:46,639
WHO ARE MISERABLE AT THEIR OWN

248
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:47,574
LIVES AND THE CHOICES THAT

249
00:06:47,574 --> 00:06:48,208
THEY'VE MADE AND SO THEY WANT TO

250
00:06:48,208 --> 00:06:49,609
MAKE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY

251
00:06:49,609 --> 00:06:50,910
MISERABLE, TOO.

252
00:06:50,910 --> 00:06:51,511
John: OH, FUCK ALL THE WAY

253
00:06:51,511 --> 00:06:52,846
OFF, YOU POTATO-HEADED

254
00:06:52,846 --> 00:06:54,347
BUILD-A-BIGOT.

255
00:06:54,347 --> 00:06:55,715
SET ASIDE THAT HARRIS HAS TWO

256
00:06:55,715 --> 00:06:56,349
STEP-CHILDREN, NEITHER OF WHOM,

257
00:06:56,349 --> 00:06:59,119
AS FAR AS I CAN SEE, ARE CATS--

258
00:06:59,119 --> 00:06:59,786
YOU DON'T NEED KIDS TO CARE

259
00:06:59,786 --> 00:07:01,554
ABOUT YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS.

260
00:07:01,554 --> 00:07:03,089
AS FOR THE CLAIM THAT WOMEN WHO

261
00:07:03,089 --> 00:07:04,424
DON'T HAVE CHILDREN ARE

262
00:07:04,424 --> 00:07:05,692
"MISERABLE WITH THE CHOICES

263
00:07:05,692 --> 00:07:06,860
THEY'VE MADE," THE ONLY PERSON

264
00:07:06,860 --> 00:07:08,028
I'M PRETTY SURE IS MISERABLE

265
00:07:08,028 --> 00:07:10,697
WITH A CHOICE THEY'VE MADE RIGHT

266
00:07:10,697 --> 00:07:13,900
NOW IS DONALD TRUMP, AFTER

267
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:14,534
RON DESANTIS" HERE AS A RUNNING

268
00:07:14,534 --> 00:07:16,903
MATE.

269
00:07:16,903 --> 00:07:17,537
J.D. VANCE SUCKS SO MUCH THAT IT

270
00:07:17,537 --> 00:07:18,905
SAYS SOMETHING THAT, FOR A FEW

271
00:07:18,905 --> 00:07:20,173
DAYS THIS WEEK, THE INTERNET RAN

272
00:07:20,173 --> 00:07:21,474
WILD WITH A JOKE TWEET THAT HE

273
00:07:21,474 --> 00:07:24,577
WAS "THE FIRST VP PICK TO HAVE

274
00:07:24,577 --> 00:07:25,578
ADMITTED IN A NY TIMES

275
00:07:25,578 --> 00:07:26,880
BESTSELLER TO FUCKING AN

276
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,248
INSIDE-OUT LATEX GLOVE SHOVED

277
00:07:28,248 --> 00:07:29,449
BETWEEN TWO COUCH CUSHIONS,"

278
00:07:29,449 --> 00:07:30,083
WITH A CITATION TO A PAGE NUMBER

279
00:07:30,083 --> 00:07:34,821
FROM HIS MEMOIR.

280
00:07:34,821 --> 00:07:35,622
AND LOOK: LET ME BE CLEAR.

281
00:07:35,622 --> 00:07:35,989
THAT'S NOT TRUE.

282
00:07:35,989 --> 00:07:37,057
IT'S NOT IN HIS BOOK.

283
00:07:37,057 --> 00:07:38,258
BUT I THINK THE REASON IT SPREAD

284
00:07:38,258 --> 00:07:39,993
SO FAST MIGHT BE THAT, A, NOBODY

285
00:07:39,993 --> 00:07:42,395
READ THAT FUCKING BOOK, AND B,

286
00:07:42,395 --> 00:07:43,296
IT WAS INCREDIBLY EASY TO

287
00:07:43,296 --> 00:07:44,197
BELIEVE.

288
00:07:44,197 --> 00:07:46,466
BECAUSE IF YOU ASKED ME TO DRAW

289
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:47,734
A MAN THAT FUCKS HIS COUCH, TEN

290
00:07:47,734 --> 00:07:48,335
TIMES OUT OF TEN, I'M DRAWING

291
00:07:48,335 --> 00:07:50,003
THIS GUY.

292
00:07:50,003 --> 00:07:51,571
IF YOU ASKED ME TO PLAY TWO

293
00:07:51,571 --> 00:07:52,872
TRUTHS AND A LIE WITH THIS MAN,

294
00:07:52,872 --> 00:07:54,140
BEFORE HE EVEN OPENED HIS MOUTH,

295
00:07:54,140 --> 00:07:55,175
I'D SHOUT "THE TRUTH IS HE FUCKS

296
00:07:55,175 --> 00:07:57,844
HIS COUCH."

297
00:07:57,844 --> 00:07:59,512
BECAUSE I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMEONE

298
00:07:59,512 --> 00:08:01,181
WITH MORE "COUCH FUCKER" ENERGY.

299
00:08:01,181 --> 00:08:01,815
HE LOOKS LIKE HE WATCHED THE TOM

300
00:08:01,815 --> 00:08:02,816
CRUISE OPRAH INTERVIEW AND WAS

301
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:07,987
JEALOUS OF TOM'S SHOES.

302
00:08:07,987 --> 00:08:08,755
IF YOU TOLD ME HIS FIRST

303
00:08:08,755 --> 00:08:10,957
CELEBRITY CRUSH WAS THE PLASTIC

304
00:08:10,957 --> 00:08:12,692
SOFA FROM "EVERYBODY LOVES

305
00:08:12,692 --> 00:08:13,593
RAYMOND," I'D BELIEVE YOU

306
00:08:13,593 --> 00:08:13,993
WITHOUT QUESTION.

307
00:08:13,993 --> 00:08:16,363
IF YOU TOLD ME THE REASON YOU

308
00:08:16,363 --> 00:08:16,930
FIND COINS IN BETWEEN COUCH

309
00:08:16,930 --> 00:08:17,530
CUSHIONS IS BECAUSE J.D. VANCE

310
00:08:17,530 --> 00:08:22,836
ALWAYS LEAVES A TIP, I'D BE

311
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:23,470
LIKE, "YEAH, THAT SOUNDS RIGHT."

312
00:08:23,470 --> 00:08:25,238
THAT RUMOR WAS SO WIDESPREAD, IT

313
00:08:25,238 --> 00:08:26,673
YIELDED THE ACTUAL NORWEGIAN

314
00:08:26,673 --> 00:08:27,273
HEADLINE, "HADDE IKKE SEX MED

315
00:08:27,273 --> 00:08:31,044
SOFA."

316
00:08:31,044 --> 00:08:32,112
WHICH LOOKS LIKE A SIGN THEY HAD

317
00:08:32,112 --> 00:08:35,582
TO PUT UP IN OSLO'S IKEA AFTER

318
00:08:35,582 --> 00:08:36,216
J.D. VISITED TOO MUCH.

319
00:08:36,216 --> 00:08:38,151
IT EVEN GOT TO THE POINT THAT

320
00:08:38,151 --> 00:08:42,689
THE AP FELT THE NEED TO PUBLISH

321
00:08:42,689 --> 00:08:45,291
A FACT-CHECK HEADLINED "NO,

322
00:08:45,291 --> 00:08:46,493
J.D. VANCE DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH

323
00:08:46,493 --> 00:08:47,127
A COUCH," ONLY TO THEN TAKE IT

324
00:08:47,127 --> 00:08:47,727
DOWN, WITH THE LINK LEADING TO

325
00:08:47,727 --> 00:08:48,161
"PAGE UNAVAILABLE."

326
00:08:48,161 --> 00:08:49,162
WHICH SOMEHOW MADE THIS EVEN

327
00:08:49,162 --> 00:08:49,396
FUNNIER.

328
00:08:49,396 --> 00:08:50,430
THE AP LATER EXPLAINED ITS

329
00:08:50,430 --> 00:08:51,931
DECISION TO PULL THE PIECE BY

330
00:08:51,931 --> 00:08:53,166
SAYING THE "STORY DID NOT GO

331
00:08:53,166 --> 00:08:53,767
THROUGH THEIR STANDARD EDITING

332
00:08:53,767 --> 00:08:56,102
PROCESS."

333
00:08:56,102 --> 00:08:57,537
AND NO SHIT IT DIDN'T, BECAUSE

334
00:08:57,537 --> 00:08:58,705
THERE'S AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH

335
00:08:58,705 --> 00:09:00,440
THAT ORIGINAL HEADLINE.

336
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,074
AND THE REASON I KNOW THAT IS,

337
00:09:01,074 --> 00:09:02,776
WE CARE A LOT ABOUT FACTS AND

338
00:09:02,776 --> 00:09:04,444
PRECISE PHRASING ON THIS SHOW,

339
00:09:04,444 --> 00:09:07,447
SO I CAN TELL YOU: YOU "CAN'T"

340
00:09:07,447 --> 00:09:12,552
SAY JD VANCE DIDN'T HAVE SEX

341
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:13,586
WITH A COUCH, DEFINITIVELY.

342
00:09:13,586 --> 00:09:14,287
YOU CAN SAY HE DIDN'T WRITE

343
00:09:14,287 --> 00:09:15,488
ABOUT DOING THAT IN HIS BOOK,

344
00:09:15,488 --> 00:09:16,189
BECAUSE THAT'S PROVABLE.

345
00:09:16,189 --> 00:09:16,756
BUT THAT'S NOT THE SAME AS

346
00:09:16,756 --> 00:09:17,557
ASSERTING HE NEVER FUCKED A

347
00:09:17,557 --> 00:09:18,391
COUCH.

348
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:19,793
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE HE HASN'T

349
00:09:19,793 --> 00:09:20,994
OFFICIALLY DENIED IT.

350
00:09:20,994 --> 00:09:22,462
BUT WE WANTED TO GIVE HIM THE

351
00:09:22,462 --> 00:09:23,063
OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT, SO WE

352
00:09:23,063 --> 00:09:24,964
CONTACTED THE VANCE CAMPAIGN

353
00:09:24,964 --> 00:09:25,598
THIS WEEK, CALLING ONE OF THEIR

354
00:09:25,598 --> 00:09:26,966
SPOKESPEOPLE.

355
00:09:26,966 --> 00:09:28,335
AND WHEN WE ASKED-- AND I QUOTE

356
00:09:28,335 --> 00:09:30,303
"HAS SENATOR VANCE EVER HAD

357
00:09:30,303 --> 00:09:31,604
SEX WITH A COUCH?"

358
00:09:31,604 --> 00:09:32,672
THEY-- AND THIS IS TRUE-- HUNG

359
00:09:32,672 --> 00:09:34,941
UP ON US.

360
00:09:34,941 --> 00:09:36,710
WHICH IS-- AND THIS IS CRUCIAL

361
00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:39,179
NOT A "NO."

362
00:09:39,179 --> 00:09:40,246
IS IT?

363
00:09:40,246 --> 00:09:41,715
WE THEN FOLLOWED UP BY BOTH

364
00:09:41,715 --> 00:09:42,949
TEXTING AND EMAILING THE SAME

365
00:09:42,949 --> 00:09:44,317
QUESTION AGAIN, AS WELL AS

366
00:09:44,317 --> 00:09:45,618
ASKING IF HE'D HAD SEX WITH ANY

367
00:09:45,618 --> 00:09:46,986
OTHER FURNITURE OR HOUSEHOLD

368
00:09:46,986 --> 00:09:47,554
ITEMS.

369
00:09:47,554 --> 00:09:49,889
BUT AS OF TAPING, WE SADLY

370
00:09:49,889 --> 00:09:51,091
HAVEN'T HEARD BACK.

371
00:09:51,091 --> 00:09:51,925
AND LOOK, WHO KNOWS WHERE THIS

372
00:09:51,925 --> 00:09:57,630
IS GOING?

373
00:09:57,630 --> 00:09:58,264
THE NEWS IS MOVING SO FAST RIGHT

374
00:09:58,264 --> 00:09:59,766
NOW.

375
00:09:59,766 --> 00:10:00,433
THE RNC WAS ONLY LAST WEEK.

376
00:10:00,433 --> 00:10:01,067
IT WAS ONLY TWO WEEKS AGO THAT

377
00:10:01,067 --> 00:10:01,434
TRUMP WAS SHOT.

378
00:10:01,434 --> 00:10:04,671
AND THERE ARE SO MANY VARIABLES

379
00:10:04,671 --> 00:10:06,906
BETWEEN HERE AND NOVEMBER.

380
00:10:06,906 --> 00:10:07,874
WE DON'T KNOW WHO KAMALA'S VP

381
00:10:07,874 --> 00:10:09,142
PICK WILL BE, WE DON'T KNOW

382
00:10:09,142 --> 00:10:09,743
WHICH CANDIDATE WILL MAINTAIN

383
00:10:09,743 --> 00:10:10,810
MOMENTUM.

384
00:10:10,810 --> 00:10:11,344
THIS RACE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO

385
00:10:11,344 --> 00:10:12,145
PREDICT, BUT THERE ARE TWO

386
00:10:12,145 --> 00:10:14,981
THINGS I KNOW FOR CERTAIN: ONE,

387
00:10:14,981 --> 00:10:16,516
JAKE TAPPER IS NOT BRAT, AND--

388
00:10:16,516 --> 00:10:18,685
UNTIL HE TELLS US OTHERWISE--

389
00:10:18,685 --> 00:10:20,787
I'M GOING TO ASSUME THAT

390
00:10:20,787 --> 00:10:22,088
J.D. VANCE FUCKED A COUCH.

391
00:10:22,088 --> 00:10:25,091
AND NOW, THIS.

392
00:10:25,091 --> 00:10:29,329
Announcer: AND NOW,

393
00:10:29,329 --> 00:10:33,533
FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON, SOME

394
00:10:33,533 --> 00:10:34,768
OLD FURNISHING ADS.

395
00:10:34,768 --> 00:10:36,569
EVEN STANDARD BACK PILLOWS

396
00:10:36,569 --> 00:10:38,271
LIKE THIS ONE CAN BE UTILIZED IN

397
00:10:38,271 --> 00:10:38,738
A DEEP CONFIGURATION.

398
00:10:38,738 --> 00:10:41,174
IF YOU JUST KIND OF SQUISH THEM

399
00:10:41,174 --> 00:10:41,341
IN.

400
00:10:41,341 --> 00:10:43,443
THEY LOOK GREAT, THEY LOOK

401
00:10:43,443 --> 00:10:44,778
COMFY, THEY LOOK SQUISHY AND IF

402
00:10:44,778 --> 00:10:46,546
THAT'S GOOD WITH THEO, IT'S GOOD

403
00:10:46,546 --> 00:10:46,780
WITH US.

404
00:10:46,780 --> 00:10:49,282
MAYBE IT HAPPENS TO BE

405
00:10:49,282 --> 00:10:50,717
DOWNSTAIRS IN THE MAN CAVE,

406
00:10:50,717 --> 00:10:51,651
WHERE IT HAPPENS TO BE IT'S NOT

407
00:10:51,651 --> 00:10:55,422
ONLY GOING TO LOOK GOOD, FEEL

408
00:10:55,422 --> 00:10:56,423
AMAZING.

409
00:10:56,423 --> 00:10:58,591
I CANNOT STOP TOUCHING THIS,

410
00:10:58,591 --> 00:10:59,259
IT'S SO SOFT.

411
00:10:59,259 --> 00:11:01,728
100% POLYESTER, I FIND IT SO

412
00:11:01,728 --> 00:11:03,129
SOFT WHEN I'M TOUCHING THIS.

413
00:11:03,129 --> 00:11:05,331
IF YOU WHERE TO GET A SPILL OR

414
00:11:05,331 --> 00:11:07,701
ANYTHING LIKE IT, YOU JUST CLOTH

415
00:11:07,701 --> 00:11:07,967
CLEAN IT.

416
00:11:07,967 --> 00:11:10,904
ZIP THIS THING OFF TO REVEAL

417
00:11:10,904 --> 00:11:11,971
YOUR NAKED SACK UNDERNEATH WHICH

418
00:11:11,971 --> 00:11:14,874
IS BUILT TO THE HILT.

419
00:11:14,874 --> 00:11:18,078
NAKED KHAKI SAC IS BUILT TO LAST

420
00:11:18,078 --> 00:11:19,512
BECAUSE IT COMES IN THIS GRAY TO

421
00:11:19,512 --> 00:11:24,184
TWILL WHICH CAN WITHSTAND ANY

422
00:11:24,184 --> 00:11:26,286
AMOUNT OF USE POSSIBLE.

423
00:11:26,286 --> 00:11:28,355
I GO IN AND OUT, IN AND OUT,

424
00:11:28,355 --> 00:11:31,658
AND ANNOUNCED.

425
00:11:31,658 --> 00:11:37,263
YOU CAN CARRY YOUR SAC AROUND

426
00:11:37,263 --> 00:11:37,497
AROUND.

427
00:11:37,497 --> 00:11:41,067
SNAP IN YOUR SODA SACK DRINK

428
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:42,602
HOLDER.

429
00:11:42,602 --> 00:11:44,437
OH, YEAH.

430
00:11:44,437 --> 00:11:44,871
John: MOVING ON.

431
00:11:44,871 --> 00:11:46,239
FOR OUR MAIN STORY TONIGHT, I'D

432
00:11:46,239 --> 00:11:46,773
LIKE TO TALK ABOUT ISRAEL.

433
00:11:46,773 --> 00:11:47,640

OLIVER," HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON

442
00:11:59,853 --> 00:12:01,388
ISRAEL'S WAR IN GAZA, WHICH HAS

443
00:12:01,388 --> 00:12:02,489
KILLED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF

444
00:12:02,489 --> 00:12:04,124
CIVILIANS IN THE WAKE OF HAMAS'S

445
00:12:04,124 --> 00:12:08,061
BRUTAL ATTACKS ON OCTOBER 7.

446
00:12:08,061 --> 00:12:08,628
BUT TONIGHT, WE'RE ACTUALLY

447
00:12:08,628 --> 00:12:09,529
GOING TO TALK ABOUT A DIFFERENT

448
00:12:09,529 --> 00:12:10,096
AREA IN THE REGION, THE WEST

449
00:12:10,096 --> 00:12:11,564
BANK, WHICH IS HOME TO OVER 3

450
00:12:11,564 --> 00:12:12,532
MILLION PALESTINIANS, THE

451
00:12:12,532 --> 00:12:13,366
EASTERN HALF OF JERUSALEM, AS

452
00:12:13,366 --> 00:12:16,236
WELL AS SOME OF THE HOLIEST

453
00:12:16,236 --> 00:12:16,870
SITES FOR CHRISTIANS, JEWS, AND

454
00:12:16,870 --> 00:12:17,203
MUSLIMS.

455
00:12:17,203 --> 00:12:18,004
THE WEST BANK'S BEEN

456
00:12:18,004 --> 00:12:19,372
OVERSHADOWED BY GAZA LATELY, BUT

457
00:12:19,372 --> 00:12:20,807
IT IS, TO PUT IT MILDLY, A

458
00:12:20,807 --> 00:12:22,409
CRITICAL PART OF THE LARGER

459
00:12:22,409 --> 00:12:23,276
STRUGGLE BETWEEN ISRAELIS AND

460
00:12:23,276 --> 00:12:24,377
PALESTINIANS.

461
00:12:24,377 --> 00:12:27,047
EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT PARTICULARLY

462
00:12:27,047 --> 00:12:27,681
FAMILIAR WITH THE HISTORY OF THE

463
00:12:27,681 --> 00:12:29,182
REGION, YOU'RE PROBABLY AWARE

464
00:12:29,182 --> 00:12:29,783
THAT EVERYTHING CONCERNING THE

465
00:12:29,783 --> 00:12:30,750
WEST BANK, AND ISRAEL'S

466
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:32,385
OCCUPATION OF IT, IS INCREDIBLY

467
00:12:32,385 --> 00:12:34,187
CONTENTIOUS, TO THE POINT THAT

468
00:12:34,187 --> 00:12:35,588
EVEN SMALL DECISIONS CONCERNING

469
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:37,357
IT CAN CAUSE HEADLINES.

470
00:12:37,357 --> 00:12:37,891
BEN & JERRY'S IS FACING

471
00:12:37,891 --> 00:12:39,793
BACKLASH.

472
00:12:39,793 --> 00:12:41,861
THE MORTON WILLIAM GROCERY CHAIN

473
00:12:41,861 --> 00:12:43,329
IS PULLING MOST BEN & JERRY'S

474
00:12:43,329 --> 00:12:44,531
PRODUCTS FROM STORE SHELVES AND

475
00:12:44,531 --> 00:12:45,932
MOVING WHAT'S LEFT TO THE BOTTOM

476
00:12:45,932 --> 00:12:47,000
OF THE FREEZER AFTER THE ICE

477
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,735
CREAM MAKER ANNOUNCED IT WILL

478
00:12:48,735 --> 00:12:49,736
STOP SELLING ICE CREAM IN

479
00:12:49,736 --> 00:12:50,503
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN

480
00:12:50,503 --> 00:12:52,739
TERRITORIES.

481
00:12:52,739 --> 00:12:53,406
BEN & JERRY'S SAYS DOING

482
00:12:53,406 --> 00:12:55,375
BUSINESS IN THOSE AREAS IS

483
00:12:55,375 --> 00:12:56,443
INCONSISTENT WITH ITS VALUES.

484
00:12:56,443 --> 00:12:58,778
CRITICS OF THE MOVE SAYS IT DOES

485
00:12:58,778 --> 00:12:59,446
NOT MOVE THE PEACE PROCESS

486
00:12:59,446 --> 00:13:01,915
FORWARD.

487
00:13:01,915 --> 00:13:03,049
John: YEAH, BEN & JERRY'S WAS

488
00:13:03,049 --> 00:13:05,118
ACCUSED OF FAILING TO MOVE THE

489
00:13:05,118 --> 00:13:06,219
PEACE PROCESS FORWARD-- WHICH,

490
00:13:06,219 --> 00:13:07,620
TO BE FAIR, DOESN'T SEEM LIKE

491
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:08,154
SOMETHING AN ICE CREAM CAN

492
00:13:08,154 --> 00:13:09,289
REALLY DO.

493
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:10,857
HOW CAN ICE CREAM SOLVE WORLD

494
00:13:10,857 --> 00:13:11,925
PEACE WHEN IT CAN'T EVEN DO A

495
00:13:11,925 --> 00:13:14,894
DECENT SPONGEBOB?

496
00:13:14,894 --> 00:13:16,129
YOU'D THINK "A YELLOW SQUARE

497
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:17,297
WITH EYEBALLS" WOULD BE EASY TO

498
00:13:17,297 --> 00:13:19,099
PULL OFF, AND YET THE REVIEWS

499
00:13:19,099 --> 00:13:22,836
ONLINE FOR THOSE SPONGEBOB POPS

500
00:13:22,836 --> 00:13:23,837
ARE JUST A NIGHTMARE AFTER

501
00:13:23,837 --> 00:13:25,105
NIGHTMARE AFTER CERTIFIABLE

502
00:13:25,105 --> 00:13:27,907
NIGHTMARE.

503
00:13:27,907 --> 00:13:29,009
A KEY REASON THINGS SURROUNDING

504
00:13:29,009 --> 00:13:29,542
THE WEST BANK ARE SO TENSE

505
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:30,276
CONCERNS THE HUNDREDS OF

506
00:13:30,276 --> 00:13:32,012
THOUSANDS OF ISRAELI SETTLERS,

507
00:13:32,012 --> 00:13:32,445
LIVING THERE.

508
00:13:32,445 --> 00:13:33,380
AND WHILE THAT TENSION CAN BE

509
00:13:33,380 --> 00:13:34,714
EXPRESSED AT THE INTERNATIONAL

510
00:13:34,714 --> 00:13:37,450
LEVEL, OR BY PROXY VIA WEIRD

511
00:13:37,450 --> 00:13:38,251
FIGHTS OVER ICE CREAM, IT CAN

512
00:13:38,251 --> 00:13:40,253
ALSO BE COMMUNICATED

513
00:13:40,253 --> 00:13:41,521
FACE-TO-FACE, AS IN THIS VIRAL

514
00:13:41,521 --> 00:13:43,056
VIDEO FROM A FEW YEARS AGO, IN

515
00:13:43,056 --> 00:13:44,824
WHICH A PALESTINIAN WOMAN

516
00:13:44,824 --> 00:13:46,226
CONFRONTS AN ISRAELI SETTLER WHO

517
00:13:46,226 --> 00:13:46,826
WAS LIVING IN THE FAMILY HOME

518
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:48,628
SHE'D BEEN FORCIBLY EVICTED

519
00:13:48,628 --> 00:13:48,828
FROM.

520
00:13:48,828 --> 00:13:51,131
JACOB, YOU KNOW THIS IS NOT

521
00:13:51,131 --> 00:13:51,431
YOUR HOUSE!

522
00:13:51,431 --> 00:13:52,032
YES, BUT IF I GO, YOU DON'T

523
00:13:52,032 --> 00:13:52,465
GO BACK.

524
00:13:52,465 --> 00:13:53,299
SO, WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

525
00:13:53,299 --> 00:13:53,933
WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME?

526
00:13:53,933 --> 00:13:56,136
I DIDN'T DO THIS.

527
00:13:56,136 --> 00:13:57,504
YOU ARE STEALING MY HOUSE.

528
00:13:57,504 --> 00:13:58,872
AND IF I DON'T STEAL IT,

529
00:13:58,872 --> 00:13:59,472
SOMEONE ELSE IS GOING TO STEAL

530
00:13:59,472 --> 00:13:59,773
IT.

531
00:13:59,773 --> 00:14:00,473
NO!

532
00:14:00,473 --> 00:14:02,842
NO ONE-- NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO

533
00:14:02,842 --> 00:14:04,944
STEAL IT, JACOB!

534
00:14:04,944 --> 00:14:07,514
John: YEAH, "NO, JACOB!"

535
00:14:07,514 --> 00:14:10,817
IT IS BOTH RIDICULOUS AND

536
00:14:10,817 --> 00:14:11,418
TRAGIC THAT THAT WOMAN'S ONLY

537
00:14:11,418 --> 00:14:12,252
RECOURSE AGAINST THE MAN

538
00:14:12,252 --> 00:14:14,854
OCCUPYING HER HOME IN FRONT OF

539
00:14:14,854 --> 00:14:15,488
HER IS TO TRY AND DO THE "SWIPER

540
00:14:15,488 --> 00:14:16,556
NO SWIPING" CHANT IN REAL LIFE.

541
00:14:16,556 --> 00:14:17,991
BUT THE OUSTING OF THAT WOMAN

542
00:14:17,991 --> 00:14:19,392
FROM HER HOME IN EAST JERUSALEM

543
00:14:19,392 --> 00:14:20,827
IS JUST A MICROCOSM OF THE

544
00:14:20,827 --> 00:14:22,262
LARGER ISSUE OF PALESTINIAN

545
00:14:22,262 --> 00:14:23,563
DISPLACEMENT AND ISRAELI

546
00:14:23,563 --> 00:14:25,298
SETTLEMENTS IN THE WEST BANK.

547
00:14:25,298 --> 00:14:26,666
AND WHAT'S HAPPENING THERE IS

548
00:14:26,666 --> 00:14:28,268
IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND-- BOTH

549
00:14:28,268 --> 00:14:28,902
BECAUSE IT'S INEXTRICABLY LINKED

550
00:14:28,902 --> 00:14:29,903
TO THE FATE OF ANY POSSIBLE

551
00:14:29,903 --> 00:14:32,439
PEACE PROCESS, AND BECAUSE

552
00:14:32,439 --> 00:14:33,940
THINGS THERE HAVE RECENTLY

553
00:14:33,940 --> 00:14:35,642
GOTTEN EXPONENTIALLY WORSE.

554
00:14:35,642 --> 00:14:37,444
SO GIVEN THAT, TONIGHT, LET'S

555
00:14:37,444 --> 00:14:40,613
TALK ABOUT THE WEST BANK

556
00:14:40,613 --> 00:14:41,247
SETTLEMENTS-- HOW THEY CAME TO

557
00:14:41,247 --> 00:14:41,915
BE, WHO'S LIVING THERE, AND WHAT

558
00:14:41,915 --> 00:14:42,816
THEIR PRESENCE MEANS FOR

559
00:14:42,816 --> 00:14:43,917
EVERYONE IN THE REGION.

560
00:14:43,917 --> 00:14:45,719
AND BEFORE WE GET TO WHERE WE

561
00:14:45,719 --> 00:14:47,220
ARE NOW, LET ME GIVE YOU A

562
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:48,188
WAY-TOO-QUICK SUMMARY OF HOW WE

563
00:14:48,188 --> 00:14:50,290
GOT TO THIS POINT.

564
00:14:50,290 --> 00:14:52,092
VERY BASICALLY: ISRAEL WAS

565
00:14:52,092 --> 00:14:53,893
FOUNDED IN 1948, FULFILLING THE

566
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:55,395
LONG-HELD HOPES OF THE ZIONIST

567
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:57,063
MOVEMENT AT A TIME WHEN JEWS

568
00:14:57,063 --> 00:14:58,365
WERE REELING FROM THE COLLECTIVE

569
00:14:58,365 --> 00:14:58,898
TRAUMAS OF PERSECUTION AND

570
00:14:58,898 --> 00:15:01,434
GENOCIDE IN THE HOLOCAUST.

571
00:15:01,434 --> 00:15:02,068
IT WAS ESTABLISHED THROUGH WHAT

572
00:15:02,068 --> 00:15:03,069
ISRAEL CALLS "THE WAR OF

573
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:07,073
INDEPENDENCE," AND WHAT

574
00:15:07,073 --> 00:15:08,041
PALESTINIANS REFER TO AS

575
00:15:08,041 --> 00:15:09,075
"THE NAKBA," OR CATASTROPHE.

576
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:10,744
700,000 PALESTINIANS SUFFERED

577
00:15:10,744 --> 00:15:12,178
THEIR OWN COLLECTIVE TRAUMA WHEN

578
00:15:12,178 --> 00:15:13,413
THEY WERE DRIVEN OUT OF THEIR

579
00:15:13,413 --> 00:15:15,115
HOMES, AMID VIOLENCE AND, IN

580
00:15:15,115 --> 00:15:16,616
SOME CASES, MASSACRES OF ENTIRE

581
00:15:16,616 --> 00:15:17,784
VILLAGES.

582
00:15:17,784 --> 00:15:19,386
SOME ENDED UP IN NEIGHBORING

583
00:15:19,386 --> 00:15:20,186
COUNTRIES AS REFUGEES, WHILE

584
00:15:20,186 --> 00:15:21,354
OTHERS SETTLED IN THE PARTS OF

585
00:15:21,354 --> 00:15:22,889
PALESTINE NOW WIDELY KNOWN AS

586
00:15:22,889 --> 00:15:24,824
GAZA AND THE WEST BANK.

587
00:15:24,824 --> 00:15:25,658
FOR DECADES THERE WERE

588
00:15:25,658 --> 00:15:27,093
SIGNIFICANT TENSIONS BETWEEN

589
00:15:27,093 --> 00:15:28,461
ISRAEL AND ITS NEIGHBORS.

590
00:15:28,461 --> 00:15:30,430
AND THEN CAME THE SIX-DAY WAR IN

591
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:32,766
1967, IN WHICH ISRAEL FOUGHT AND

592
00:15:32,766 --> 00:15:34,034
DEFEATED EGYPT, SYRIA, AND

593
00:15:34,034 --> 00:15:35,068
JORDAN-- AND IN DOING SO,

594
00:15:35,068 --> 00:15:36,302
CAPTURED VASTLY MORE TERRITORY,

595
00:15:36,302 --> 00:15:38,605
INCLUDING THE WEST BANK.

596
00:15:38,605 --> 00:15:39,572
ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, IT STARTED

597
00:15:39,572 --> 00:15:41,107
BUILDING SETTLEMENTS THERE,

598
00:15:41,107 --> 00:15:42,142
WHILE ALSO ANNEXING EAST

599
00:15:42,142 --> 00:15:43,710
JERUSALEM.

600
00:15:43,710 --> 00:15:45,378
AND TO BE CLEAR: BOTH THOSE

601
00:15:45,378 --> 00:15:46,746
ACTIONS CONSTITUTE VIOLATIONS OF

602
00:15:46,746 --> 00:15:48,314
INTERNATIONAL LAW.

603
00:15:48,314 --> 00:15:49,716
WHEN YOU OCCUPY TERRITORY AS AN

604
00:15:49,716 --> 00:15:51,151
OUTCOME OF WAR, YOU ARE NOT

605
00:15:51,151 --> 00:15:52,552
ALLOWED TO EXPEL PEOPLE, OR MOVE

606
00:15:52,552 --> 00:15:53,420
YOUR OWN CITIZENS IN.

607
00:15:53,420 --> 00:15:54,587
AND ISRAEL KNEW THIS AT THE

608
00:15:54,587 --> 00:15:56,122
TIME.

609
00:15:56,122 --> 00:15:58,358
ITS FOREIGN MINISTRY'S OWN LEGAL

610
00:15:58,358 --> 00:15:59,359
ADVISOR WARNED, IN A TOP-SECRET

611
00:15:59,359 --> 00:16:01,995
MEMO, THAT CIVILIAN SETTLEMENTS

612
00:16:01,995 --> 00:16:02,729
WOULD "CONTRAVENE EXPLICIT

613
00:16:02,729 --> 00:16:04,130
PROVISIONS OF THE FOURTH GENEVA

614
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:05,398
CONVENTION."

615
00:16:05,398 --> 00:16:06,433
BUT THEY KEPT BUILDING

616
00:16:06,433 --> 00:16:07,567
SETTLEMENTS ANYWAY, FOR DECADES.

617
00:16:07,567 --> 00:16:09,169
ALTHOUGH THERE WAS ONE MOMENT IN

618
00:16:09,169 --> 00:16:09,969
THE '90S WHEN IT SEEMED LIKE

619
00:16:09,969 --> 00:16:12,105
THERE MIGHT BE A POSSIBLE

620
00:16:12,105 --> 00:16:13,106
PATHWAY TO A PEACEFUL RESOLUTION

621
00:16:13,106 --> 00:16:13,573
WITH THE OSLO ACCORDS.

622
00:16:13,573 --> 00:16:15,375
THAT HISTORIC PEACE PROCESS SET

623
00:16:15,375 --> 00:16:17,010
UP A NEW FRAMEWORK FOR THE WEST

624
00:16:17,010 --> 00:16:17,911
BANK, DIVIDING IT INTO THREE

625
00:16:17,911 --> 00:16:19,846
DISTINCT AREAS.

626
00:16:19,846 --> 00:16:21,548
AREA A GAVE PALESTINIANS

627
00:16:21,548 --> 00:16:24,351
TOTAL CONTROL OVER SECURITY AND

628
00:16:24,351 --> 00:16:26,186
GOVERNMENT.

629
00:16:26,186 --> 00:16:27,687
AREA B WAS DESIGNATED FOR

630
00:16:27,687 --> 00:16:29,422
PALESTINIAN GOVERNMENT CONTROL,

631
00:16:29,422 --> 00:16:31,491
WHILE RETAINING ISRAELI SECURITY

632
00:16:31,491 --> 00:16:33,093
CONTROL, MEANING THE ISRAELI

633
00:16:33,093 --> 00:16:33,827
MILITARY REMAINS VERY PRESENT

634
00:16:33,827 --> 00:16:35,228
THERE.

635
00:16:35,228 --> 00:16:37,197
AREA C REMAINED COMPLETELY UNDER

636
00:16:37,197 --> 00:16:38,565
THE ISRAELI MILITARY AND

637
00:16:38,565 --> 00:16:40,700
GOVERNMENT CONTROL.

638
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:42,168
IT'S ABOUT 60% OF THE WEST BANK.

639
00:16:42,168 --> 00:16:44,237
John: RIGHT, THAT'S WHAT THE

640
00:16:44,237 --> 00:16:45,772
WEST BANK MAP LOOKS LIKE TODAY.

641
00:16:45,772 --> 00:16:46,973
THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST

642
00:16:46,973 --> 00:16:48,141
POLITICALLY FRAUGHT AREAS ON

643
00:16:48,141 --> 00:16:49,743
EARTH, COLOR-CODED IN A WAY THAT

644
00:16:49,743 --> 00:16:51,144
MAKES IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT WOULD

645
00:16:51,144 --> 00:16:52,412
HAPPEN IF SHREK JIZZED INTO A

646
00:16:52,412 --> 00:16:53,880
PUDDLE.

647
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:55,682
AND IF YOU'RE THINKING, "I DUNNO

648
00:16:55,682 --> 00:16:56,616
IF I CAN QUITE SEE THAT."

649
00:16:56,616 --> 00:16:59,052
HOW ABOUT NOW?

650
00:16:59,052 --> 00:17:00,453
CAN YOU SEE IT NOW?

651
00:17:00,453 --> 00:17:01,554
AND IN A WAY, WILL YOU EVER BE

652
00:17:01,554 --> 00:17:04,657
ABLE TO UNSEE IT?

653
00:17:04,657 --> 00:17:06,326
NOW, CRUCIALLY, THIS WHOLE SETUP

654
00:17:06,326 --> 00:17:07,560
WAS ONLY EVER MEANT TO BE

655
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,329
TEMPORARY WHILE A LARGER PEACE

656
00:17:09,329 --> 00:17:10,964
DEAL WAS HAMMERED OUT.

657
00:17:10,964 --> 00:17:12,198
BUT AFTER OSLO FELL APART, FOR

658
00:17:12,198 --> 00:17:19,272
REASONS INCLUDING, BUT NOT

659
00:17:21,074 --> 00:17:21,641
LIMITED TO, CONTINUED EXPANSION,

660
00:17:21,641 --> 00:17:22,976
TERROR ATTACKS BY

661
00:17:22,976 --> 00:17:23,543
PALESTINIAN MILITANTS, AND

662
00:17:23,543 --> 00:17:24,110
ISRAELI HARD-LINERS

663
00:17:24,110 --> 00:17:24,744
ASSASSINATING THE PRIME MINISTER

664
00:17:24,744 --> 00:17:25,912
WHO'D BROKERED THE DEAL, YITZHAK

665
00:17:25,912 --> 00:17:26,513
RABIN-- THAT TEMPORARY

666
00:17:26,513 --> 00:17:27,814
ARRANGEMENT WAS BASICALLY FROZEN

667
00:17:27,814 --> 00:17:29,182
IN PLACE, AND ISRAEL CONTINUED

668
00:17:29,182 --> 00:17:30,083
BUILDING MORE AND MORE AND MORE

669
00:17:30,083 --> 00:17:30,850
SETTLEMENTS.

670
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:32,052
IN FACT, EVERY SINGLE ISRAELI

671
00:17:32,052 --> 00:17:33,086
GOVERNMENT HAS INVESTED

672
00:17:33,086 --> 00:17:33,586
SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES IN

673
00:17:33,586 --> 00:17:34,754
EXPANDING THEM.

674
00:17:34,754 --> 00:17:36,423
AND ALL THAT BRINGS US TO WHERE

675
00:17:36,423 --> 00:17:36,756
WE ARE TODAY.

676
00:17:36,756 --> 00:17:37,657
BECAUSE WHILE THERE WERE AROUND

677
00:17:37,657 --> 00:17:39,159
250,000 SETTLERS IN THE WEST

678
00:17:39,159 --> 00:17:41,261
BANK WHEN OSLO WAS SIGNED, THERE

679
00:17:41,261 --> 00:17:43,096
ARE CURRENTLY AROUND 700,000.

680
00:17:43,096 --> 00:17:44,397
AND IT'S WORTH TALKING ABOUT THE

681
00:17:44,397 --> 00:17:44,831
SETTLERS THEMSELVES.

682
00:17:44,831 --> 00:17:45,799
BECAUSE WHEN YOU THINK OF THEM,

683
00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:47,100
YOU MAY ENVISION SOMEONE LIKE

684
00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:49,569
THE BLUNDERING GUY YOU SAW

685
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:50,737
EARLIER, OR HARDLINERS ON AN

686
00:17:50,737 --> 00:17:52,172
IDEOLOGICAL MISSION TO CLAIM THE

687
00:17:52,172 --> 00:17:53,440
HOLY LAND IN THE NAME OF THE

688
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,441
JEWISH PEOPLE.

689
00:17:54,441 --> 00:17:54,941
BUT THAT'S NOT THE WHOLE

690
00:17:54,941 --> 00:17:56,710
PICTURE.

691
00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:59,679
IN FACT 70% OF THOSE WHO LIVE IN

692
00:17:59,679 --> 00:18:01,448
"QUALITY OF LIFE" SETTLERS.

693
00:18:01,448 --> 00:18:02,315
AND I WILL SAY-- THE WAY THEY

694
00:18:02,315 --> 00:18:04,217
DESCRIBE THEIR COMMUNITIES DOES

695
00:18:04,217 --> 00:18:05,885
MAKE THEM SEEM VERY ATTRACTIVE.

696
00:18:05,885 --> 00:18:07,053
SPEND 10 MINUTES IN A

697
00:18:07,053 --> 00:18:10,190
SETTLEMENT TODAY, AND YOU

698
00:18:10,190 --> 00:18:10,790
SOMETIMES FEEL THAT YOU COULD

699
00:18:10,790 --> 00:18:12,792
JUST AS EASILY BE IN A NEW

700
00:18:12,792 --> 00:18:13,126
JERSEY SUBURB.

701
00:18:13,126 --> 00:18:14,828
CLEAN ROADS, BIG HOUSES, QUALITY

702
00:18:14,828 --> 00:18:15,995
PARKS, GOOD SCHOOLS, CLOSE BY

703
00:18:15,995 --> 00:18:18,965
SHOPPING, A UNIVERSITY.

704
00:18:18,965 --> 00:18:19,566
YOU ASK PEOPLE WHY THEY MOVED

705
00:18:19,566 --> 00:18:22,869
OUT HERE AND INSTEAD OF THE

706
00:18:22,869 --> 00:18:25,271
ORIGINAL MISSION TO PUSH FORWARD

707
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:25,839
THE ISRAELI STATE, YOU HEAR

708
00:18:25,839 --> 00:18:26,306
THINGS LIKE--

709
00:18:26,306 --> 00:18:29,175
A VERY GOOD EDUCATIONAL

710
00:18:29,175 --> 00:18:29,409
SYSTEM.

711
00:18:29,409 --> 00:18:30,510
VERY NICE COUNTRY CLUB.

712
00:18:30,510 --> 00:18:31,378
WE WANTED TO BE ABLE TO HAVE

713
00:18:31,378 --> 00:18:32,779
A BIGGER PLACE.

714
00:18:32,779 --> 00:18:34,214
IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO RAISE

715
00:18:34,214 --> 00:18:34,781
KIDS.

716
00:18:34,781 --> 00:18:35,648
WE WERE LOOKING FOR A

717
00:18:35,648 --> 00:18:36,750
JERUSALEM SUBURB THAT WE COULD

718
00:18:36,750 --> 00:18:38,151
AFFORD THAT WAS A MANAGEABLE

719
00:18:38,151 --> 00:18:40,020
COMMUTE.

720
00:18:40,020 --> 00:18:41,354
THE QUALITY OF LIFE IS SO

721
00:18:41,354 --> 00:18:41,988
MUCH BETTER.

722
00:18:41,988 --> 00:18:42,522
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH

723
00:18:42,522 --> 00:18:43,523
POLITICS.

724
00:18:43,523 --> 00:18:47,160
John: HOLD ON, IT HAS NOTHING

725
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:47,694
TO DO WITH POLITICS?

726
00:18:47,694 --> 00:18:49,429
I'M SORRY, IT VERY MUCH DOES.

727
00:18:49,429 --> 00:18:50,030
JUST BECAUSE IT'S A NICE PLACE

728
00:18:50,030 --> 00:18:52,065
TO LIVE DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY LESS

729
00:18:52,065 --> 00:18:52,699
ILLEGAL UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW.

730
00:18:52,699 --> 00:18:55,769
IT'S NOT LIKE THE GENEVA

731
00:18:55,769 --> 00:18:57,170
CONVENTION SAYS, "THE OCCUPYING

732
00:18:57,170 --> 00:18:58,371
POWER SHALL NOT TRANSFER PARTS

733
00:18:58,371 --> 00:18:59,773
OF ITS OWN CIVILIAN POPULATION

734
00:18:59,773 --> 00:19:05,445
INTO THE TERRITORY IT

735
00:19:05,445 --> 00:19:06,980
OCCUPIES UNLESS THERE'S, LIKE,

736
00:19:06,980 --> 00:19:08,348
REALLY CONVENIENT SHOPPING AND A

737
00:19:08,348 --> 00:19:09,549
SUPER MANAGEABLE COMMUTE TO

738
00:19:09,549 --> 00:19:09,949
JERUSALEM."

739
00:19:09,949 --> 00:19:10,450
ALSO, PART OF THE REASON

740
00:19:10,450 --> 00:19:12,018
SETTLEMENTS CAN BE SO PLEASANT,

741
00:19:12,018 --> 00:19:13,053
IS BECAUSE THE ISRAELI

742
00:19:13,053 --> 00:19:14,120
GOVERNMENT WANTS PEOPLE TO MOVE

743
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:15,388
THERE.

744
00:19:15,388 --> 00:19:16,289
LIFE IS MASSIVELY SUBSIDIZED IN

745
00:19:16,289 --> 00:19:17,357
THE SETTLEMENTS, WITH THE

746
00:19:17,357 --> 00:19:19,025
GOVERNMENT SPENDING MORE PER

747
00:19:19,025 --> 00:19:19,959
CAPITA ON THINGS LIKE EDUCATION

748
00:19:19,959 --> 00:19:21,161
AND INFRASTRUCTURE IN THEM THAN

749
00:19:21,161 --> 00:19:24,364
IT DOES WITHIN ISRAEL ITSELF.

750
00:19:24,364 --> 00:19:24,898
IN RECENT YEARS, ISRAEL'S

751
00:19:24,898 --> 00:19:26,399
HOUSING MINISTRY HAS EVEN

752
00:19:26,399 --> 00:19:28,568
OFFERED SUBSIDIZED APARTMENTS IN

753
00:19:28,568 --> 00:19:29,202
THE WEST BANK THROUGH A LOTTERY

754
00:19:29,202 --> 00:19:32,372
SYSTEM.

755
00:19:32,372 --> 00:19:36,276
THE WHOLE SETTLEMENT PROCESS HAS

756
00:19:36,276 --> 00:19:36,743
BEEN ENCOURAGED BY THE

757
00:19:36,743 --> 00:19:38,712
GOVERNMENT THAT IT'S HARD TO

758
00:19:38,712 --> 00:19:40,280
ARGUE THAT LIVING ONE IS NOT A

759
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,816
POLITICAL CHOICE.

760
00:19:42,816 --> 00:19:43,583
THE BUILDING ON STOLEN LAND IS

761
00:19:43,583 --> 00:19:46,953
AN INHERENTLY POLITICAL LAND,

762
00:19:46,953 --> 00:19:49,589
AND IT'S ALSO, TECHNICALLY,

763
00:19:49,589 --> 00:19:50,790
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT FOR WHAT

764
00:19:50,790 --> 00:19:51,091
IT'S WORTH.

765
00:19:51,091 --> 00:19:52,158
NOW, THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT WILL

766
00:19:52,158 --> 00:19:53,293
SAY IT DOESN'T OFFICIALLY

767
00:19:53,293 --> 00:19:53,793
SUPPORT ALL SETTLEMENTS.

768
00:19:53,793 --> 00:19:56,963
ITS OFFICIAL LINE IS THAT THERE

769
00:19:56,963 --> 00:19:57,530
ARE TWO KINDS-- SO-CALLED

770
00:19:57,530 --> 00:19:58,365
"LEGAL," APPROVED SETTLEMENTS,

771
00:19:58,365 --> 00:19:59,632
AND "OUTPOSTS," CREATED BY ROGUE

772
00:19:59,632 --> 00:20:00,266
SETTLERS, THAT ARE ILLEGAL UNDER

773
00:20:00,266 --> 00:20:01,401
ISRAELI LAW.

774
00:20:01,401 --> 00:20:01,935
BUT FOR THE RECORD, UNDER

775
00:20:01,935 --> 00:20:02,569
INTERNATIONAL LAW, BOTH OF THEM

776
00:20:02,569 --> 00:20:04,671
ARE ILLEGAL.

777
00:20:04,671 --> 00:20:05,472
AND ALSO, ISRAEL FREQUENTLY

778
00:20:05,472 --> 00:20:06,873
OFFERS ALL MANNER OF RESOURCES

779
00:20:06,873 --> 00:20:09,109
TO THE SO-CALLED "ILLEGAL

780
00:20:09,109 --> 00:20:11,011
OUTPOSTS" TOO, PROVIDING THEM

781
00:20:11,011 --> 00:20:12,245
WITH MILITARY DEFENSE, ACCESS TO

782
00:20:12,245 --> 00:20:13,747
PUBLIC UTILITIES, AND SOMETIMES

783
00:20:13,747 --> 00:20:15,048
EVEN RETROACTIVELY LEGALIZING

784
00:20:15,048 --> 00:20:15,815
THEM.

785
00:20:15,815 --> 00:20:17,584
SO, AS THIS ISRAELI CRITIC OF

786
00:20:17,584 --> 00:20:19,719
THE SETTLEMENTS POINTS OUT, THE

787
00:20:19,719 --> 00:20:20,854
LINE BETWEEN THE TWO TYPES CAN

788
00:20:20,854 --> 00:20:21,521
GET PRETTY BLURRY.

789
00:20:21,521 --> 00:20:23,289
SETTLEMENT AND OUTPOST,

790
00:20:23,289 --> 00:20:26,226
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

791
00:20:26,226 --> 00:20:29,763
WELL, THE-- USUALLY SOMEONE

792
00:20:29,763 --> 00:20:31,898
REFERS TO ISRAELI-- ISRAELI

793
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:34,734
SETTLEMENTS, WHICH ARE

794
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:35,268
OFFICIALLY APPROVED BY THE

795
00:20:35,268 --> 00:20:37,103
ISRAELI GOVERNMENT.

796
00:20:37,103 --> 00:20:38,338
AND THE ISRAELI OUTPOST ARE

797
00:20:38,338 --> 00:20:39,939
ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS, WHICH HAD

798
00:20:39,939 --> 00:20:40,740
BEEN BUILT ALSO BY THE ISRAELI

799
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:41,374
GOVERNMENT, BUT WITHOUT OFFICIAL

800
00:20:41,374 --> 00:20:42,375
APPROVAL.

801
00:20:42,375 --> 00:20:44,644
John: RIGHT.

802
00:20:44,644 --> 00:20:46,446
SETTLEMENTS AND OUTPOSTS ARE

803
00:20:46,446 --> 00:20:49,049
NOMINALLY DIFFERENT, BUT CAN

804
00:20:49,049 --> 00:20:49,549
LOOK STRIKINGLY SIMILAR.

805
00:20:49,549 --> 00:20:51,418
KIND OF LIKE HELVETICA AND

806
00:20:51,418 --> 00:20:53,253
ARIAL, OR JESSICA CHASTAIN AND

807
00:20:53,253 --> 00:20:55,622
BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD, OR THIS

808
00:20:55,622 --> 00:20:56,156
SOMEONE'S DRAWN A BUNCH OF

809
00:20:56,156 --> 00:20:58,091
PENISES ON.

810
00:20:58,091 --> 00:20:59,392
WE'RE BOTH BASICALLY JUST CHARTS

811
00:20:59,392 --> 00:21:01,027
PLUS DICK JOKES.

812
00:21:01,027 --> 00:21:07,200
BUT SOME SETTLERS WILL INSIST

813
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:08,001
NONE OF THIS MATTERS BECAUSE

814
00:21:08,001 --> 00:21:11,838
WHAT THEY'RE REALLY DOING IS

815
00:21:11,838 --> 00:21:12,572
BUILDING IN AN AREA THAT NO

816
00:21:12,572 --> 00:21:17,110
ONE'S USING.

817
00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:17,744
I ACTUALLY KNOW FOR SURE THAT

818
00:21:17,744 --> 00:21:18,712
WE CAME HERE, WE DID NOT TAKE

819
00:21:18,712 --> 00:21:19,279
ANYBODY'S LAND BECAUSE I SAW

820
00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:20,280
THAT THERE WAS NOBODY HERE.

821
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:20,880
NO, IT WAS A-- THE WHOLE-THE

822
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:21,748
WHOLE-- THIS HILL WAS A HILL.

823
00:21:21,748 --> 00:21:22,449
NOBODY AROUND IT, NOBODY WAS

824
00:21:22,449 --> 00:21:23,049
USING IT, NOBODY WAS IT-- IT

825
00:21:23,049 --> 00:21:23,583
WASN'T BOTHERING ANYBODY.

826
00:21:23,583 --> 00:21:24,184
John: OKAY, BUT IT DOESN'T

827
00:21:24,184 --> 00:21:24,784
MATTER IF ANYONE WAS USING IT.

828
00:21:24,784 --> 00:21:25,618
IF IT'S NOT YOUR LAND, YOU CAN'T

829
00:21:25,618 --> 00:21:26,386
JUST TAKE IT-- AND I KNOW

830
00:21:26,386 --> 00:21:29,289
THAT'S HARD TO TAKE FROM SOMEONE

831
00:21:29,289 --> 00:21:30,590
USING THIS PARTICULAR ACCENT.

832
00:21:30,590 --> 00:21:33,159
BUT THERE IS A CLEAR DIFFERENCE

833
00:21:33,159 --> 00:21:34,527
BETWEEN PROPERTY THAT NOBODY "IS

834
00:21:34,527 --> 00:21:35,161
USING," AND PROPERTY THAT NOBODY

835
00:21:35,161 --> 00:21:36,062
"OWNS."

836
00:21:36,062 --> 00:21:37,263
IT'S WHY WE CALL THOSE BIG

837
00:21:37,263 --> 00:21:38,631
THINGS OUTSIDE OF STORES

838
00:21:38,631 --> 00:21:41,167
"PARKING LOTS," AND NOT

839
00:21:41,167 --> 00:21:44,137
"HELP-YOURSELF CAR BUFFETS."

840
00:21:44,137 --> 00:21:45,305
BUT WHILE THAT ARGUMENT'S

841
00:21:45,305 --> 00:21:46,706
CLEARLY RIDICULOUS, IT ALSO

842
00:21:46,706 --> 00:21:47,841
SPEAKS TO ISRAEL'S LARGER

843
00:21:47,841 --> 00:21:49,275
STRATEGY IN THE REGION.

844
00:21:49,275 --> 00:21:49,843
BECAUSE ONE OF THE OFFICIAL

845
00:21:49,843 --> 00:21:51,077
MEANS BY WHICH ISRAEL TAKES LAND

846
00:21:51,077 --> 00:21:52,645
THERE IS BY CLAIMING THAT IF

847
00:21:52,645 --> 00:21:54,614
LAND HASN'T BEEN CULTIVATED

848
00:21:54,614 --> 00:21:55,882
WITHIN THE PRIOR THREE YEARS, IT

849
00:21:55,882 --> 00:21:57,050
CAN BE DECLARED AS STATE LAND.

850
00:21:57,050 --> 00:21:58,852
AND SOME OF ITS TACTICS SEEM

851
00:21:58,852 --> 00:22:01,287
DESIGNED TO ENSURE A LACK OF

852
00:22:01,287 --> 00:22:01,888
CULTIVATION, AS SETTLERS HAVE

853
00:22:01,888 --> 00:22:03,523
DRIVEN PALESTINIANS OFF THEIR

854
00:22:03,523 --> 00:22:04,057
LAND THROUGH VIOLENCE OR

855
00:22:04,057 --> 00:22:07,427
INTIMIDATION.

856
00:22:07,427 --> 00:22:07,927
ALSO, IT CAN BE HARD FOR

857
00:22:07,927 --> 00:22:09,763
PALESTINIANS IN THE WEST BANK TO

858
00:22:09,763 --> 00:22:10,397
BUILD OR CULTIVATE IN THE FIRST

859
00:22:10,397 --> 00:22:14,534
PLACE, DUE TO THE OPAQUE PERMIT

860
00:22:14,534 --> 00:22:16,169
PROCESS THERE, AS THIS MAN

861
00:22:16,169 --> 00:22:16,603
PATIENTLY EXPLAINS.

862
00:22:16,603 --> 00:22:17,203
ISRAELIS, I'VE HEARD, WOULD

863
00:22:17,203 --> 00:22:21,608
SAY, WELL, THE LAND IS UNUSED

864
00:22:21,608 --> 00:22:22,242
ANYWAYS.

865
00:22:22,242 --> 00:22:22,842
IT'S ON THE TOP OF THE HILLS.

866
00:22:22,842 --> 00:22:23,476
YEAH, THAT'S--

867
00:22:23,476 --> 00:22:26,446
[LAUGHS]

868
00:22:26,446 --> 00:22:27,213
THAT'S A GOOD, GOOD EXCUSE.

869
00:22:27,213 --> 00:22:29,349
BUT WHY IT'S UNUSED?

870
00:22:29,349 --> 00:22:29,949
BECAUSE WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO

871
00:22:29,949 --> 00:22:30,183
USE IT.

872
00:22:30,183 --> 00:22:30,750
John: YEAH, AND HE'S NOT

873
00:22:30,750 --> 00:22:31,751
EXAGGERATING.

874
00:22:31,751 --> 00:22:32,519
ISRAEL CONTROLS BUILDING PERMITS

875
00:22:32,519 --> 00:22:33,486
IN THE WEST BANK, AND BY ITS OWN

876
00:22:33,486 --> 00:22:34,854
ADMISSION, IT REJECTS OVER 95%

877
00:22:34,854 --> 00:22:38,158
OF PALESTINIAN PERMIT REQUESTS.

878
00:22:38,158 --> 00:22:41,261
SO IT'S NOT THAT PALESTINIANS

879
00:22:41,261 --> 00:22:45,065
DON'T WANT TO USE THE LAND--

880
00:22:45,065 --> 00:22:45,665
IT'S THAT THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED

881
00:22:45,665 --> 00:22:46,833
TO, WHICH IS DIFFERENT, IN THE

882
00:22:46,833 --> 00:22:47,467
SAME WAY THAT IT'S NOT THAT J.D.

883
00:22:47,467 --> 00:22:48,168
VANCE DOESN'T WANT TO HELP YOU

884
00:22:48,168 --> 00:22:49,869
MOVE, IT'S JUST THAT HE'S NOT

885
00:22:49,869 --> 00:22:52,372
ALLOWED WITHIN 50 FEET OF A

886
00:22:52,372 --> 00:22:57,544
THREE-PIECE SECTIONAL.

887
00:22:57,544 --> 00:22:58,812
IT'S NOT HIS CHOICE AT THE END

888
00:22:58,812 --> 00:23:00,113
OF THE DAY.

889
00:23:00,113 --> 00:23:00,680
AND WHAT THIS MEANS IS THAT,

890
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,015
EVEN AS ISRAEL HAS BEEN HEAVILY

891
00:23:02,015 --> 00:23:02,982
INCENTIVIZING CONSTRUCTION FOR

892
00:23:02,982 --> 00:23:04,818
ISRAELIS IN THE WEST BANK, WHEN

893
00:23:04,818 --> 00:23:05,752
IT COMES TO PALESTINIAN HOMES,

894
00:23:05,752 --> 00:23:07,153
THIS IS WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING

895
00:23:07,153 --> 00:23:07,887
FOR YEARS.

896
00:23:07,887 --> 00:23:08,455
AUTHORITIES HAVE ORDERED

897
00:23:08,455 --> 00:23:09,689
HUNDREDS OF PALESTINIAN HOMES TO

898
00:23:09,689 --> 00:23:11,791
BE DEMOLISHED BECAUSE THEY WERE

899
00:23:11,791 --> 00:23:13,360
BUILT WITHOUT THE PROPER

900
00:23:13,360 --> 00:23:13,893
PERMITS, WHICH ARE ALMOST

901
00:23:13,893 --> 00:23:15,662
IMPOSSIBLE FOR PALESTINIANS TO

902
00:23:15,662 --> 00:23:16,663
GET.

903
00:23:16,663 --> 00:23:18,531
THEY COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS,

904
00:23:18,531 --> 00:23:20,000
CAN TAKE YEARS TO PROCESS, AND

905
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,633
RARELY GET APPROVED, WHICH MEANS

906
00:23:20,633 --> 00:23:22,802
PALESTINIANS OFTEN END UP

907
00:23:22,802 --> 00:23:23,937
BUILDING ILLEGALLY.

908
00:23:23,937 --> 00:23:24,938
John: YEAH, OF COURSE.

909
00:23:24,938 --> 00:23:25,972
AND THAT'S SHOCKING EVEN BEFORE

910
00:23:25,972 --> 00:23:26,940
YOU GET TO THE BRAIN-SEARING

911
00:23:26,940 --> 00:23:28,875
HYPOCRISY OF PALESTINIANS IN THE

912
00:23:28,875 --> 00:23:29,409
WEST BANK BEING TOLD THAT

913
00:23:29,409 --> 00:23:31,211
"THEIR" HOMES ARE ILLEGAL.

914
00:23:31,211 --> 00:23:31,811
IT'S LIKE GETTING CALLED A HOT

915
00:23:31,811 --> 00:23:34,914
MESS BY THE FUCKING HINDENBERG.

916
00:23:34,914 --> 00:23:36,883
HEY!

917
00:23:36,883 --> 00:23:37,751
I'M NOT TAKING THAT FROM YOU,

918
00:23:37,751 --> 00:23:41,888
YOU GASSY BITCH.

919
00:23:41,888 --> 00:23:42,956
BUT BUILDING PERMITS ARE JUST

920
00:23:42,956 --> 00:23:44,157
THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG.

921
00:23:44,157 --> 00:23:45,191
THERE'S ALSO THE PHYSICAL

922
00:23:45,191 --> 00:23:47,060
OBSTACLES PLACED IN THE PATH OF

923
00:23:47,060 --> 00:23:49,195
PALESTINIANS' EVERYDAY LIFE,

924
00:23:49,195 --> 00:23:50,063
FROM THIS MASSIVE, WINDING

925
00:23:50,063 --> 00:23:51,564
SEPARATION WALL TO THE ENDLESS

926
00:23:51,564 --> 00:23:52,799
MAZE OF CHECKPOINTS AND GATES

927
00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:53,433
PALESTINIANS ARE FORCED TO PASS

928
00:23:53,433 --> 00:23:56,236
THROUGH-- WHICH, AS THIS MAN

929
00:23:56,236 --> 00:23:57,070
POINTS OUT, CAN HAVE EXTREME

930
00:23:57,070 --> 00:23:58,638
CONSEQUENCES.

931
00:23:58,638 --> 00:24:01,474
YOU CAN'T COME TO MY HOUSE.

932
00:24:01,474 --> 00:24:02,075
YOU KNOW, THE CHECKPOINT, THEY

933
00:24:02,075 --> 00:24:04,611
CLOSE IT ON THE NIGHT.

934
00:24:04,611 --> 00:24:05,979
IT'S ONLY SUNDAY, TUESDAY, AND

935
00:24:05,979 --> 00:24:08,648
THURSDAY, ONE HOUR IN THE

936
00:24:08,648 --> 00:24:09,215
MORNING AND ONE HOUR IN THE

937
00:24:09,215 --> 00:24:10,283
EVENING, WE'RE ALLOWED TO PASS

938
00:24:10,283 --> 00:24:12,485
THE CHECKPOINT.

939
00:24:12,485 --> 00:24:13,687
NO VISITORS, NO AMBULANCES, NO

940
00:24:13,687 --> 00:24:14,988
KINDERGARTENS, NO SCHOOLS, NO

941
00:24:14,988 --> 00:24:15,522
JOBS.

942
00:24:15,522 --> 00:24:17,991
IF THERE'S AN EMERGENCY, WHAT

943
00:24:17,991 --> 00:24:18,625
DO YOU DO?

944
00:24:18,625 --> 00:24:19,693
NOTHING.

945
00:24:19,693 --> 00:24:20,326
DIE.

946
00:24:20,326 --> 00:24:21,394
John: HOLY SHIT.

947
00:24:21,394 --> 00:24:23,329
LOOK, IN SOME SITUATIONS, ALL

948
00:24:23,329 --> 00:24:24,597
YOU CAN DO IS JUST SIT THERE AND

949
00:24:24,597 --> 00:24:25,732
WAIT TO DIE-- LIKE IF YOU'RE

950
00:24:25,732 --> 00:24:26,366
STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND, OR

951
00:24:26,366 --> 00:24:29,169
TRAVELING ON A BOEING AIRPLANE.

952
00:24:29,169 --> 00:24:30,437
BUT DEATH SHOULDN'T BE AN

953
00:24:30,437 --> 00:24:31,771
INEVITABLE OUTCOME JUST BECAUSE

954
00:24:31,771 --> 00:24:32,505
YOU HAPPEN TO LIVE BEHIND AN

955
00:24:32,505 --> 00:24:34,974
ISRAELI CHECKPOINT.

956
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:35,608
THESE CHECKPOINTS ARE A

957
00:24:35,608 --> 00:24:36,710
NIGHTMARE.

958
00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:38,244
PALESTINIAN WOMEN TRYING TO GET

959
00:24:38,244 --> 00:24:38,878
TO HOSPITAL TO GIVE BIRTH HAVE

960
00:24:38,878 --> 00:24:41,715
BEEN DELAYED AT THEM SO MANY

961
00:24:41,715 --> 00:24:42,716
TIMES, THERE'VE BEEN DOZENS OF

962
00:24:42,716 --> 00:24:44,050
DOCUMENTED ROADSIDE BIRTHS, AS

963
00:24:44,050 --> 00:24:45,251
WELL AS CASES OF MATERNAL AND

964
00:24:45,251 --> 00:24:47,687
INFANT DEATHS.

965
00:24:47,687 --> 00:24:48,254
AND THESE DELAYS AND

966
00:24:48,254 --> 00:24:49,489
INCONVENIENCES CAN BE

967
00:24:49,489 --> 00:24:50,890
DELIBERATE, AS SETTLEMENTS ARE

968
00:24:50,890 --> 00:24:52,225
SOMETIMES STRATEGICALLY PLACED

969
00:24:52,225 --> 00:24:53,727
TO CUT PALESTINIAN COMMUNITIES

970
00:24:53,727 --> 00:24:56,196
OFF FROM ONE ANOTHER.

971
00:24:56,196 --> 00:24:57,897
ONE OUTPOST PLACED IN A

972
00:24:57,897 --> 00:24:58,865
COMMERCIAL HUB OPENLY DECLARES

973
00:24:58,865 --> 00:25:01,267
ON ITS FACEBOOK PAGE THAT THE

974
00:25:01,267 --> 00:25:05,171
INTENT OF ITS LOCATION IS TO

975
00:25:05,171 --> 00:25:05,739
"DISRUPT CONTIGUITY BETWEEN"

976
00:25:05,739 --> 00:25:06,406
THREE PALESTINIAN VILLAGES.

977
00:25:06,406 --> 00:25:07,040
AND THE WAY CERTAIN PALESTINIANS

978
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,942
ARE FENCED IN CAN GET TRULY

979
00:25:08,942 --> 00:25:11,778
ABSURD.

980
00:25:11,778 --> 00:25:12,979
GATEEB'S HOME SITS ON HIS

981
00:25:12,979 --> 00:25:16,082
ANCESTRAL LAND, SURROUNDED BY

982
00:25:16,082 --> 00:25:19,019
THIS IMPOSING METAL FENCE, A

983
00:25:19,019 --> 00:25:19,652
HOUSE WITHIN A CAGE ENCIRCLED BY

984
00:25:19,652 --> 00:25:23,189
ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS.

985
00:25:23,189 --> 00:25:23,790
HIS 11-YEAR-OLD SON, SABRI,

986
00:25:23,790 --> 00:25:26,192
WAS DETAINED FOR SIX HOURS WHEN

987
00:25:26,192 --> 00:25:28,461
HIS FOOTBALL ROLLED NEAR THE

988
00:25:28,461 --> 00:25:30,130
SETTLEMENTS.

989
00:25:30,130 --> 00:25:31,598
SABRI JUST GRINS WITH YOUTHFUL

990
00:25:31,598 --> 00:25:32,365
BRAVADO, CLAIMING HE WASN'T

991
00:25:32,365 --> 00:25:36,202
SCARED.

992
00:25:36,202 --> 00:25:37,170
DID YOU GET SCARED?

993
00:25:37,170 --> 00:25:38,638
BUT I WAS.

994
00:25:38,638 --> 00:25:40,273
HIS SISTER PIPES UP.

995
00:25:40,273 --> 00:25:41,975
John: YEAH, I BET SHE WAS!

996
00:25:41,975 --> 00:25:42,742
AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT IS

997
00:25:42,742 --> 00:25:43,677
BONKERS-- FROM THE IDEA OF

998
00:25:43,677 --> 00:25:45,145
LIVING IN A HOUSE ALMOST

999
00:25:45,145 --> 00:25:47,981
COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY A

1000
00:25:47,981 --> 00:25:49,115
MILITARY FENCE, TO A CHILDHOOD

1001
00:25:49,115 --> 00:25:50,417
THAT INCLUDES THE POSSIBILITY

1002
00:25:50,417 --> 00:25:51,418
THAT A STRAY FOOTBALL COULD LAND

1003
00:25:51,418 --> 00:25:52,419
YOU IN DETENTION FOR SIX HOURS.

1004
00:25:52,419 --> 00:25:59,492
AND WHAT ON EARTH IS THE POINT

1005
00:25:59,859 --> 00:26:00,360
OF DETAINING AN 11-YEAR-OLD

1006
00:26:00,360 --> 00:26:01,261
FOR SIX HOURS?

1007
00:26:01,261 --> 00:26:01,928
WHAT'S AN INTERROGATION GOING TO

1008
00:26:01,928 --> 00:26:02,896
YIELD?

1009
00:26:02,896 --> 00:26:03,496
AN ANSWER TO WHAT ROBLOX IS OR

1010
00:26:03,496 --> 00:26:05,532
ARE?

1011
00:26:05,532 --> 00:26:07,600
BECAUSE BELIEVE ME, THAT'S ALL

1012
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:08,601
THEY FUCKING TALK ABOUT.

1013
00:26:08,601 --> 00:26:09,269
AND THERE'S GOOD REASON FOR THAT

1014
00:26:09,269 --> 00:26:09,903
GIRL TO BE SCARED-- BECAUSE THE

1015
00:26:09,903 --> 00:26:11,304
LEGAL RIGHTS OF PALESTINIANS IN

1016
00:26:11,304 --> 00:26:11,905
THE WEST BANK ARE TENUOUS, AT

1017
00:26:11,905 --> 00:26:14,174
BEST.

1018
00:26:14,174 --> 00:26:16,042
THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO SETS OF

1019
00:26:16,042 --> 00:26:16,576
LAWS THERE.

1020
00:26:16,576 --> 00:26:17,344
JEWISH SETTLERS ENJOY ACCESS TO

1021
00:26:17,344 --> 00:26:18,378
CIVILIAN LAW, DUE PROCESS, AND

1022
00:26:18,378 --> 00:26:19,913
THE FULL PROTECTION OF CIVIL

1023
00:26:19,913 --> 00:26:21,281
RIGHTS.

1024
00:26:21,281 --> 00:26:24,150
BUT PALESTINIANS LIVE UNDER

1025
00:26:24,150 --> 00:26:24,617
ISRAELI MILITARY LAW.

1026
00:26:24,617 --> 00:26:25,151
SO IF THEY'RE ACCUSED OF A

1027
00:26:25,151 --> 00:26:28,321
CRIME, THEY'RE TRIED IN MILITARY

1028
00:26:28,321 --> 00:26:29,055
COURTS, WHICH HAVE-- TO PUT IT

1029
00:26:29,055 --> 00:26:36,129
MILDLY-- SIGNIFICANTLY FEWER

1030
00:26:37,330 --> 00:26:39,432
PROTECTIONS, AND BOAST A ROUGHLY

1031
00:26:39,432 --> 00:26:39,866
99% CONVICTION RATE.

1032
00:26:39,866 --> 00:26:40,467
AND THAT CLEARLY SEPARATE AND

1033
00:26:40,467 --> 00:26:41,735
UNEQUAL TWO-TIER JUSTICE SYSTEM

1034
00:26:41,735 --> 00:26:42,502
MEANS PALESTINIANS ALSO HAVE

1035
00:26:42,502 --> 00:26:46,506
LITTLE RECOURSE WHEN THEY'RE THE

1036
00:26:46,506 --> 00:26:47,140
VICTIMS OF A CRIME.

1037
00:26:47,140 --> 00:26:48,508
BECAUSE, DESPITE BOTH ISRAELI

1038
00:26:48,508 --> 00:26:49,709
AND INTERNATIONAL LAW SAYING

1039
00:26:49,709 --> 00:26:50,243
ISRAELI SOLDIERS HAVE AN

1040
00:26:50,243 --> 00:26:50,977
OBLIGATION TO PROTECT

1041
00:26:50,977 --> 00:26:52,178
PALESTINIAN RESIDENTS OF THE

1042
00:26:52,178 --> 00:26:53,380
WEST BANK, IN PRACTICE, WHEN IT

1043
00:26:53,380 --> 00:26:54,014
COMES TO ATTACKS BY SETTLERS ON

1044
00:26:54,014 --> 00:26:55,315
PALESTINIANS, THERE'S BEEN A

1045
00:26:55,315 --> 00:26:56,049
HISTORY OF SILENCE, AVOIDANCE

1046
00:26:56,049 --> 00:26:57,951
AND ABETMENT BY ISRAELI

1047
00:26:57,951 --> 00:26:59,185
OFFICIALS.

1048
00:26:59,185 --> 00:26:59,786
IN FACT, WHEN AN ISRAELI HUMAN

1049
00:26:59,786 --> 00:27:00,453
RIGHTS GROUP LOOKED AT MORE THAN

1050
00:27:00,453 --> 00:27:01,087
1600 CASES OF SETTLER VIOLENCE,

1051
00:27:01,087 --> 00:27:03,223
IT FOUND THAT JUST 3% RESULTED

1052
00:27:03,223 --> 00:27:03,690
IN A CONVICTION.

1053
00:27:03,690 --> 00:27:05,892
AND LOOK: I'M NOT A LAWYER, OR A

1054
00:27:05,892 --> 00:27:09,162
STATISTICIAN, DESPITE LOOKING

1055
00:27:09,162 --> 00:27:11,164
LIKE WHAT YOU'D GET IF YOU

1056
00:27:11,164 --> 00:27:11,798
SMASHED THOSE TWO JOBS TOGETHER

1057
00:27:11,798 --> 00:27:13,066
WITH A PARTICLE ACCELERATOR, BUT

1058
00:27:13,066 --> 00:27:15,669
EVEN I CAN TELL YOU, 3% IS TOO

1059
00:27:15,669 --> 00:27:18,171
LOW.

1060
00:27:18,171 --> 00:27:19,572
AND FOR A SENSE OF JUST HOW

1061
00:27:19,572 --> 00:27:20,640
EXTREME SETTLEMENTS CAN GET,

1062
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:21,908
TAKE HEBRON, A CITY HOME TO

1063
00:27:21,908 --> 00:27:23,376
ABOUT 200,000 PALESTINIANS, AND

1064
00:27:23,376 --> 00:27:26,046
700 HARDLINE ISRAELI SETTLERS

1065
00:27:26,046 --> 00:27:29,182
WHO'VE CHOSEN TO LIVE LITERALLY

1066
00:27:29,182 --> 00:27:29,916
ABOVE THEM.

1067
00:27:29,916 --> 00:27:30,717
LIFE IN HEBRON IS FULL OF

1068
00:27:30,717 --> 00:27:32,952
CONSTANT REMINDERS ABOUT WHOSE

1069
00:27:32,952 --> 00:27:34,621
SAFETY IS PRIORITIZED.

1070
00:27:34,621 --> 00:27:35,155
JUST OVER A YEAR AGO, A

1071
00:27:35,155 --> 00:27:36,656
REMOTE-CONTROLLED GUN,

1072
00:27:36,656 --> 00:27:38,124
REPORTEDLY FOR CROWD DISPERSAL,

1073
00:27:38,124 --> 00:27:39,759
WAS INSTALLED ABOVE THIS

1074
00:27:39,759 --> 00:27:41,895
CHECKPOINT.

1075
00:27:41,895 --> 00:27:42,495
SO, IT'S POINTING TOWARDS THE

1076
00:27:42,495 --> 00:27:44,898
PALESTINIAN AREA?

1077
00:27:44,898 --> 00:27:45,732
TOWARDS PALESTINIANS.

1078
00:27:45,732 --> 00:27:46,099
YES.

1079
00:27:46,099 --> 00:27:46,733
PALESTINIAN AUTHORITIES HAVE HAD

1080
00:27:46,733 --> 00:27:48,568
TO BUILD AN OVERHEAD FENCE TO

1081
00:27:48,568 --> 00:27:50,103
CATCH RUBBISH AND PROJECTILES

1082
00:27:50,103 --> 00:27:53,173
THROWN DOWN BY SETTLERS.

1083
00:27:53,173 --> 00:27:53,807
SO, THE ISRAELI SETTLERS LIVE UP

1084
00:27:53,807 --> 00:27:54,307
HERE?

1085
00:27:54,307 --> 00:27:55,108
YEAH, THEY LIVE HERE.

1086
00:27:55,108 --> 00:27:56,476
AND THEY THROW EVERYTHING DOWN.

1087
00:27:56,476 --> 00:27:57,610
12 SHOPS ARE CLOSED.

1088
00:27:57,610 --> 00:27:58,378
THE SETTLERS, THEY ATTACK

1089
00:27:58,378 --> 00:27:59,512
PALESTINIANS WITHOUT ANY KIND OF

1090
00:27:59,512 --> 00:28:01,414
ACCOUNTABILITY.

1091
00:28:01,414 --> 00:28:02,048
HOW DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL TO

1092
00:28:02,048 --> 00:28:05,051
SEE THIS?

1093
00:28:05,051 --> 00:28:05,685
I FEEL VERY SAD.

1094
00:28:05,685 --> 00:28:07,187
FROM THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MARKET,

1095
00:28:07,187 --> 00:28:09,422
TO CLOSED SHOPS.

1096
00:28:09,422 --> 00:28:10,323
AN OUTPOST.

1097
00:28:10,323 --> 00:28:12,992
AND IT-- FOR ME IT ILLUSTRATES

1098
00:28:12,992 --> 00:28:19,566
THE ISRAELI-OCCUPATION SYSTEM--

1099
00:28:19,566 --> 00:28:20,800
SOMEONE FROM THE SETTLEMENT

1100
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,035
ABOVE HAS THROWN A BEER BOTTLE

1101
00:28:22,035 --> 00:28:24,070
AT ISSA'S HEAD.

1102
00:28:24,070 --> 00:28:25,705
YOU OKAY, ISSA?

1103
00:28:25,705 --> 00:28:26,473
ARE YOU OKAY?

1104
00:28:26,473 --> 00:28:27,407
I GOT THE BEER, I THINK.

1105
00:28:27,407 --> 00:28:27,941
OR MAYBE--

1106
00:28:27,941 --> 00:28:35,015
DID IT CUT YOU?

1107
00:28:36,783 --> 00:28:37,817
John: THAT IS TERRIBLE, AND

1108
00:28:37,817 --> 00:28:39,185
I'M NOT SURE WHICH PART OF THAT

1109
00:28:39,185 --> 00:28:41,121
SITUATION SEEMS LESS LIVEABLE,

1110
00:28:41,121 --> 00:28:42,288
SAYING HELLO TO THE BARREL OF A

1111
00:28:42,288 --> 00:28:43,523
REMOTE-CONTROLLED TURRET EVERY

1112
00:28:43,523 --> 00:28:44,090
DAY, OR THE CONSTANT WEATHER

1113
00:28:44,090 --> 00:28:44,624
FORECAST OF "CLOUDY WITH A

1114
00:28:44,624 --> 00:28:45,859
CHANCE OF TETANUS."

1115
00:28:45,859 --> 00:28:47,160
AND SETTLERS WILL ARGUE THAT

1116
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:47,761
THEY LIVE IN CONSTANT FEAR OF

1117
00:28:47,761 --> 00:28:48,495
VIOLENCE.

1118
00:28:48,495 --> 00:28:49,229
AND IT'S TRUE THAT, OVER THE

1119
00:28:49,229 --> 00:28:50,296
LAST SIXTEEN YEARS, 150 ISRAELIS

1120
00:28:50,296 --> 00:28:51,131
HAVE BEEN KILLED BY PALESTINIANS

1121
00:28:51,131 --> 00:28:51,998
IN THE WEST BANK.

1122
00:28:51,998 --> 00:28:52,732
THOUGH IT'S WORTH NOTING THAT,

1123
00:28:52,732 --> 00:28:53,667
IN THAT SAME PERIOD, MORE THAN

1124
00:28:53,667 --> 00:28:55,468
TEN TIMES THAT MANY PALESTINIANS

1125
00:28:55,468 --> 00:28:57,137
WERE KILLED BY ISRAELIS, THE

1126
00:28:57,137 --> 00:28:57,671
VAST MAJORITY DIRECTLY BY

1127
00:28:57,671 --> 00:29:00,373
ISRAELI SECURITY FORCES.

1128
00:29:00,373 --> 00:29:00,840
BUT MAYBE THE CLEAREST

1129
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:01,941
ILLUSTRATION OF THE IMPUNITY

1130
00:29:01,941 --> 00:29:05,311
SOME SETTLERS FEEL IS THE

1131
00:29:05,311 --> 00:29:05,879
PRACTICE OF SO-CALLED "PRICE

1132
00:29:05,879 --> 00:29:08,448
TAG" ATTACKS ON PALESTINIANS--

1133
00:29:08,448 --> 00:29:09,282
WHICH ARE OSTENSIBLY ACTS OF

1134
00:29:09,282 --> 00:29:12,752
REVENGE BUT CAN BE UTTERLY

1135
00:29:12,752 --> 00:29:14,187
INDISCRIMINATE, AS THIS SETTLER

1136
00:29:14,187 --> 00:29:16,356
CALMLY EXPLAINS.

1137
00:29:16,356 --> 00:29:18,491
CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT THESE

1138
00:29:18,491 --> 00:29:18,958
PRICE TAG ATTACKS ARE?

1139
00:29:18,958 --> 00:29:21,027
WHAT THEY MEAN?

1140
00:29:21,027 --> 00:29:21,795
AFTER ARABS KILLED JEWS,

1141
00:29:21,795 --> 00:29:24,097
ANYTHING WRONG THAT HAPPENED, WE

1142
00:29:24,097 --> 00:29:29,002
SHOWED THAT WE WON'T STAY IN

1143
00:29:29,002 --> 00:29:30,036
QUIET.

1144
00:29:30,036 --> 00:29:32,005
IT HAS A PRICE AND IT CALLED

1145
00:29:32,005 --> 00:29:33,807
PRICE TAG.

1146
00:29:33,807 --> 00:29:34,741
IT COULD JUST BE ANY-- ANY

1147
00:29:34,741 --> 00:29:36,009
RANDOM ARAB, DOESN'T MATTER

1148
00:29:36,009 --> 00:29:36,776
WHETHER THEY WERE INVOLVED OR

1149
00:29:36,776 --> 00:29:37,610
NOT?

1150
00:29:37,610 --> 00:29:39,646
NO, IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE

1151
00:29:39,646 --> 00:29:44,217
THEY SIT HERE AND BECAUSE THEY

1152
00:29:44,217 --> 00:29:45,452
BELIEVE IT THEIRS.

1153
00:29:45,452 --> 00:29:45,919
THEY'RE ALL INVOLVED.

1154
00:29:45,919 --> 00:29:46,519
AND FOR YOU, THAT'S GUILTY

1155
00:29:46,519 --> 00:29:48,655
ENOUGH, JUST-- JUST BEING HERE,

1156
00:29:48,655 --> 00:29:49,923
THAT MAKES THEM GUILTY, YEAH.

1157
00:29:49,923 --> 00:29:52,392
YEAH, THAT MAKES THEM GUILTY.

1158
00:29:52,392 --> 00:29:53,159
John: WOW.

1159
00:29:53,159 --> 00:29:54,327
IT IS A LITTLE JARRING TO HEAR

1160
00:29:54,327 --> 00:29:55,962
SOMEONE SAY SOMETHING SO WILDLY

1161
00:29:55,962 --> 00:29:56,963
DISTURBING IN SUCH A SEDATE

1162
00:29:56,963 --> 00:29:58,331
MANNER.

1163
00:29:58,331 --> 00:30:00,300
SHE'S ADVOCATING FOR RANDOM

1164
00:30:00,300 --> 00:30:01,334
VIOLENT HATE CRIMES THERE, BUT

1165
00:30:01,334 --> 00:30:03,436
DOING IT IN THE ULTRA-RELAXED

1166
00:30:03,436 --> 00:30:04,170
TONE OF A YOGA INSTRUCTOR ON

1167
00:30:04,170 --> 00:30:06,239
HORSE TRANQUILIZERS.

1168
00:30:06,239 --> 00:30:06,906
IT'S A TRULY HORRENDOUS

1169
00:30:06,906 --> 00:30:09,275
SITUATION.

1170
00:30:09,275 --> 00:30:10,176
AND AS THAT ISRAELI EXPERT YOU

1171
00:30:10,176 --> 00:30:13,713
SAW EARLIER POINTS OUT, THERE'S

1172
00:30:13,713 --> 00:30:14,347
ACTUALLY A TERM THAT DESCRIBES

1173
00:30:14,347 --> 00:30:16,416
ALL THIS.

1174
00:30:16,416 --> 00:30:17,250
WHEN THERE ARE TWO GROUPS

1175
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:19,119
THAT LIVE IN THE SAME TERRITORY

1176
00:30:19,119 --> 00:30:20,120
AND THEY ARE OFFICIALLY

1177
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:21,521
SEPARATED IN TERMS OF POLITICAL,

1178
00:30:21,521 --> 00:30:23,256
ECONOMIC AND LEGAL RIGHTS AND

1179
00:30:23,256 --> 00:30:25,692
THE KEY TO THIS SEPARATION IS

1180
00:30:25,692 --> 00:30:26,292
COMPLETELY ARBITRARY, WHETHER

1181
00:30:26,292 --> 00:30:27,594
YOU WERE BORN TO AN ARAB MOTHER

1182
00:30:27,594 --> 00:30:28,161
OR NOT, WHAT WOULD YOU CALL

1183
00:30:28,161 --> 00:30:29,329
THAT?

1184
00:30:29,329 --> 00:30:30,530
IF IT SMELLS LIKE APARTHEID,

1185
00:30:30,530 --> 00:30:31,631
LOOKS LIKE APARTHEID, SOUNDS

1186
00:30:31,631 --> 00:30:32,999
LIKE APARTHEID, THEN IT'S

1187
00:30:32,999 --> 00:30:34,868
APARTHEID.

1188
00:30:34,868 --> 00:30:36,836
John: HE'S RIGHT, ALTHOUGH

1189
00:30:36,836 --> 00:30:38,905
REAL QUICK-- "IF IT SMELLS LIKE

1190
00:30:38,905 --> 00:30:40,707
APARTHEID?"

1191
00:30:40,707 --> 00:30:41,508
DOES APARTHEID ACTUALLY HAVE A

1192
00:30:41,508 --> 00:30:42,609
SMELL?

1193
00:30:42,609 --> 00:30:43,910
BECAUSE I'LL BE HONEST, UNTIL

1194
00:30:43,910 --> 00:30:47,514
NOW, I WAS PRETTY SURE IT'D ONLY

1195
00:30:47,514 --> 00:30:49,349
PRODUCED THE ONE KIND OF MUSK.

1196
00:30:49,349 --> 00:30:50,517
BUT HE'S NOT ALONE IN THAT

1197
00:30:50,517 --> 00:30:52,218
ASSESSMENT.

1198
00:30:52,218 --> 00:30:53,586
A FORMER HEAD OF ISRAEL'S

1199
00:30:53,586 --> 00:30:54,954
INTELLIGENCE AGENCY MOSSAD HAS

1200
00:30:54,954 --> 00:30:56,523
SAID, IN REFERENCE TO THE WEST

1201
00:30:56,523 --> 00:30:58,224
BANK, "THERE IS AN APARTHEID

1202
00:30:58,224 --> 00:31:01,127
STATE HERE," AND THIS FORMER

1203
00:31:01,127 --> 00:31:02,696
IDF GENERAL HAS CALLED THE

1204
00:31:02,696 --> 00:31:05,331
SITUATION "TOTAL APARTHEID,"

1205
00:31:05,331 --> 00:31:06,433
ADDING THE IDF IS STANDING BY,

1206
00:31:06,433 --> 00:31:07,300
LOOKING AT THE SETTLER RIOTERS

1207
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:08,234
AND IS BEGINNING TO BE A PARTNER

1208
00:31:08,234 --> 00:31:09,336
TO WAR CRIMES.

1209
00:31:09,336 --> 00:31:12,272
AND AT THIS POINT, WE SHOULD

1210
00:31:12,272 --> 00:31:13,406
PROBABLY TALK THE U.S.'S ROLE IN

1211
00:31:13,406 --> 00:31:17,210
THIS WHOLE SITUATION.

1212
00:31:17,210 --> 00:31:18,945
BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERABLE.

1213
00:31:18,945 --> 00:31:21,314
AMERICA OPPOSES SETTLEMENTS

1214
00:31:21,314 --> 00:31:25,118
OFFICIALLY BUT PUDDLES THEM

1215
00:31:25,118 --> 00:31:26,152
AS BOTH REPUBLICAN AND

1216
00:31:26,152 --> 00:31:27,620
DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTS HAVE

1217
00:31:27,620 --> 00:31:28,521
REFERRED TO THEM AS

1218
00:31:28,521 --> 00:31:30,724
"ILLEGITIMATE" BUT DECLINED TO

1219
00:31:30,724 --> 00:31:31,358
CALL THEM "ILLEGAL"-- TO AVOID

1220
00:31:31,358 --> 00:31:31,925
THE POSSIBILITY ISRAEL WOULD

1221
00:31:31,925 --> 00:31:37,764
FACE INTERNATIONAL SANCTIONS.

1222
00:31:37,764 --> 00:31:42,002
TRUMP WAS INCREDIBLY COZY

1223
00:31:42,002 --> 00:31:42,802
BECAUSE OF THE UNKNOWINGLY SMUG

1224
00:31:42,802 --> 00:31:44,204
LOOK AND THE ADMINISTRATION NOT

1225
00:31:44,204 --> 00:31:45,572
ONLY MOVE THE U.S. EMBASSY TO

1226
00:31:45,572 --> 00:31:49,242
JERUSALEM IN 2018, BUT THE NEXT

1227
00:31:49,242 --> 00:31:51,177
YEAR IT ALSO DID THIS.

1228
00:31:51,177 --> 00:31:52,245
IN A MAJOR CHANGE OF FOREIGN

1229
00:31:52,245 --> 00:31:53,046
POLICY, THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION

1230
00:31:53,046 --> 00:31:53,613
SAID IT NO LONGER CONSIDERS

1231
00:31:53,613 --> 00:32:00,687
JEWISH COMMUNITIES BUILT ON

1232
00:32:05,558 --> 00:32:06,426
PALESTINIAN LANDS KNOWN AS

1233
00:32:06,426 --> 00:32:07,127
SETTLEMENTS TO BE AGAINST

1234
00:32:07,127 --> 00:32:07,994
INTERNATIONAL LAW.

1235
00:32:07,994 --> 00:32:08,495
THE ANNOUNCEMENT MADE BY

1236
00:32:08,495 --> 00:32:09,963
SECRETARY OF STATE MIKE POMPEO.

1237
00:32:09,963 --> 00:32:11,097
CALLING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF

1238
00:32:11,097 --> 00:32:11,865
CIVILIAN SETTLEMENTS

1239
00:32:11,865 --> 00:32:12,499
INCONSISTENT WITH INTERNATIONAL

1240
00:32:12,499 --> 00:32:12,899
LAW HASN'T WORKED.

1241
00:32:12,899 --> 00:32:14,034
IT HASN'T ADVANCED THE CAUSE OF

1242
00:32:14,034 --> 00:32:18,304
PEACE.

1243
00:32:18,304 --> 00:32:18,872
John: YOU KNOW WHAT, IT

1244
00:32:18,872 --> 00:32:19,539
TURNS OUT, MIKE POMPEO AND I

1245
00:32:19,539 --> 00:32:20,106
ACTUALLY AGREE ON SOMETHING!

1246
00:32:20,106 --> 00:32:20,707
THE STATUS QUO HASN'T WORKED.

1247
00:32:20,707 --> 00:32:22,475
I THINK WE MIGHT JUST DISAGREE

1248
00:32:22,475 --> 00:32:23,543
ON WHAT TO DO NEXT.

1249
00:32:23,543 --> 00:32:24,477
IT'S ONE OF MANY THINGS WE SEEM

1250
00:32:24,477 --> 00:32:25,512
DISAGREE ON, ALONG WITH WHAT HE

1251
00:32:25,512 --> 00:32:29,082
SHOULD HAVE NAMED HIS BOOK.

1252
00:32:29,082 --> 00:32:30,050
BECAUSE IN MY OPINION,

1253
00:32:30,050 --> 00:32:31,584
"NEVER GIVE AN INCH" SOUNDS LIKE

1254
00:32:31,584 --> 00:32:32,552
THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A

1255
00:32:32,552 --> 00:32:33,420
MICRO-PENIS.

1256
00:32:33,420 --> 00:32:34,754
BUT MIKE CLEARLY FEELS

1257
00:32:34,754 --> 00:32:41,094
DIFFERENTLY.

1258
00:32:41,094 --> 00:32:41,661
BUT IT'S NOT JUST GOVERNMENT

1259
00:32:41,661 --> 00:32:42,095
SUPPORT.

1260
00:32:42,095 --> 00:32:42,696
WEALTHY AMERICAN DONORS HAVE

1261
00:32:42,696 --> 00:32:44,197
FUNNELED HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF

1262
00:32:44,197 --> 00:32:45,532
DOLLARS INTO SETTLEMENTS.

1263
00:32:45,532 --> 00:32:46,132
AND IT'S WORTH NOTING: MANY OF

1264
00:32:46,132 --> 00:32:46,866
THE BIGGEST CONTRIBUTORS AREN'T

1265
00:32:46,866 --> 00:32:47,500
JEWISH INDIVIDUALS, OR GROUPS--

1266
00:32:47,500 --> 00:32:49,502
THEY'RE ACTUALLY EVANGELICAL

1267
00:32:49,502 --> 00:32:52,939
CHRISTIANS.

1268
00:32:52,939 --> 00:32:53,606
PASTOR JOHN HAS DONE

1269
00:32:55,775 --> 00:32:56,309
THIS MAN, PASTOR JOHN HAGEE,

1270
00:32:56,309 --> 00:32:56,876
WHO'S DONE FAR MORE THAN YOU

1271
00:32:56,876 --> 00:32:57,210
MIGHT EXPECT.

1272
00:32:57,210 --> 00:32:57,711
PASTOR HAGEE FOUNDED

1273
00:32:57,711 --> 00:32:58,378
CHRISTIANS UNITED FOR ISRAEL, OR

1274
00:32:58,378 --> 00:32:59,045
CUFI, WHICH IS THE LARGEST

1275
00:32:59,045 --> 00:33:01,715
PRO-ISRAEL LOBBYING ORGANIZATION

1276
00:33:01,715 --> 00:33:02,015
IN AMERICA.

1277
00:33:02,015 --> 00:33:02,582
EVEN BIGGER THAN AIPAC, THE

1278
00:33:02,582 --> 00:33:03,817
ORGANIZATION MOST PEOPLE ASSUME

1279
00:33:03,817 --> 00:33:05,719
DOMINATES THE AMERICAN-ISRAEL

1280
00:33:05,719 --> 00:33:07,687
LOBBY BECAUSE IT'S THE BIGGEST

1281
00:33:07,687 --> 00:33:07,987
JEWISH ONE.

1282
00:33:07,987 --> 00:33:08,588
WHAT'S DICEY ABOUT CUFI IS

1283
00:33:08,588 --> 00:33:09,422
THAT A GOOD DEAL OF THEIR MONEY

1284
00:33:09,422 --> 00:33:11,591
FOR ISRAEL IS SPENT ON BUILDINGS

1285
00:33:11,591 --> 00:33:13,159
AND ORGANIZATIONS IN THE ISRAELI

1286
00:33:13,159 --> 00:33:14,961
SETTLEMENTS.

1287
00:33:14,961 --> 00:33:17,630
GOD GAVE THEM THAT LAND.

1288
00:33:17,630 --> 00:33:19,065
THEY OWN THAT LAND.

1289
00:33:19,065 --> 00:33:21,201
John: OKAY, IF YOU TOLD ME TO

1290
00:33:21,201 --> 00:33:22,869
PICTURE A MEGACHURCH PASTOR,

1291
00:33:22,869 --> 00:33:23,970
THAT'S EXACTLY WHO I'M

1292
00:33:23,970 --> 00:33:25,472
IMAGINING.

1293
00:33:25,472 --> 00:33:27,240
SLICKED BACK SILVER HAIR,

1294
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:28,708
HEADSET MIC, LOOKING LIKE AN

1295
00:33:28,708 --> 00:33:29,342
ELDERLY CHRIS FARLEY IN EASTER

1296
00:33:29,342 --> 00:33:31,244
PIMP DRAG.

1297
00:33:31,244 --> 00:33:32,379
THAT IS ON-THE-NOSE CASTING

1298
00:33:32,379 --> 00:33:34,280
RIGHT THERE.

1299
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,448
AND INTERESTINGLY, THE REASON

1300
00:33:35,448 --> 00:33:36,716
MANY EVANGELICALS ARE SO

1301
00:33:36,716 --> 00:33:38,518
INVESTED IN ISRAEL IS, THEY

1302
00:33:38,518 --> 00:33:39,853
BELIEVE JEWISH PEOPLE BEING IN

1303
00:33:39,853 --> 00:33:40,787
THAT REGION IS ONE OF THE

1304
00:33:40,787 --> 00:33:47,861
PREREQUISITES FOR THEIR VISION

1305
00:33:49,629 --> 00:33:49,996
OF ARMAGEDDON.

1306
00:33:49,996 --> 00:33:50,630
WHEN THAT DAY COMES, THE

1307
00:33:50,630 --> 00:33:51,631
THINKING GOES, CHRISTIANS WILL

1308
00:33:51,631 --> 00:33:52,232
BE RAPTURED, AND I'LL LET THIS

1309
00:33:52,232 --> 00:33:52,766
MAN FILL YOU IN ON WHAT HE

1310
00:33:52,766 --> 00:33:53,366
THINKS HAPPENS TO THE JEWS IN

1311
00:33:53,366 --> 00:33:53,767
ISRAEL AFTERWARD.

1312
00:33:53,767 --> 00:33:55,402
2,000 YEARS OF BLINDNESS IS

1313
00:33:55,402 --> 00:33:56,202
GONNA COME PEELING OFF THE

1314
00:33:56,202 --> 00:33:57,437
JEWISH MIND.

1315
00:33:57,437 --> 00:33:58,071
AND THOSE OF US THAT HAVE BEEN

1316
00:33:58,071 --> 00:33:59,439
UP-- CAUGHT UP IN THE RAPTURE

1317
00:33:59,439 --> 00:34:00,040
AND COME WITH JESUS HERE TO--

1318
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,174
OH, 'CAUSE THE CHRISTIANS

1319
00:34:01,174 --> 00:34:02,042
HAVE BEEN RAPTURED OUT.

1320
00:34:02,042 --> 00:34:02,876
ALL WHO ARE BORN AGAIN WILL

1321
00:34:02,876 --> 00:34:09,949
HAVE BEEN RAPTURED.

1322
00:34:10,183 --> 00:34:10,750
WHEN JESUS COME, WE'LL BE CAUGHT

1323
00:34:10,750 --> 00:34:11,317
UP TO MEET HIM IN THE AIR.

1324
00:34:11,317 --> 00:34:11,751
YEAH.

1325
00:34:11,751 --> 00:34:12,752
AND THEN WE WILL COME WITH

1326
00:34:12,752 --> 00:34:13,687
HIM TO THE MOUNT OF OLIVES.

1327
00:34:13,687 --> 00:34:14,320
AND SO WE'RE GONNA BE WATCHING

1328
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:15,255
THIS WHOLE PANORAMIC THING

1329
00:34:15,255 --> 00:34:16,122
UNFOLD AS THE JEWISH PEOPLE TURN

1330
00:34:16,122 --> 00:34:18,725
TO THEIR MESSIAH.

1331
00:34:18,725 --> 00:34:19,359
WE'RE GONNA BE CONVERTING PEOPLE

1332
00:34:19,359 --> 00:34:20,427
BY THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS

1333
00:34:20,427 --> 00:34:21,928
DURING THIS TIME.

1334
00:34:21,928 --> 00:34:23,463
IT'S GONNA BE THE BEST OF TIMES

1335
00:34:23,463 --> 00:34:30,537
AND THE WORST OF TIMES.

1336
00:34:32,105 --> 00:34:32,806
John: YEAH, THAT MAKES SENSE.

1337
00:34:32,806 --> 00:34:33,673
APPARENTLY, EVANGELICALS WILL

1338
00:34:33,673 --> 00:34:34,240
GROW VICTORIA'S SECRET ANGEL

1339
00:34:34,240 --> 00:34:34,874
WINGS, FLAP UP TO JESUS AND SIT

1340
00:34:34,874 --> 00:34:36,109
WITH HIM IN HIS LISA FRANK BALL,

1341
00:34:36,109 --> 00:34:37,744
AND SMUGLY WATCH AS JEWS REALIZE

1342
00:34:37,744 --> 00:34:38,578
HOW WRONG THEY'VE BEEN.

1343
00:34:38,578 --> 00:34:39,779
AND LOOK, ON ONE HAND, I GET

1344
00:34:39,779 --> 00:34:41,314
WHY SOME IN ISRAEL MIGHT

1345
00:34:41,314 --> 00:34:43,216
ENCOURAGE THIS.

1346
00:34:43,216 --> 00:34:43,983
THERE'S A CYNICAL UTILITY TO

1347
00:34:43,983 --> 00:34:45,785
TAKING IDIOTS' MONEY.

1348
00:34:45,785 --> 00:34:47,520
BUT SOMEONE EXPRESSING

1349
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:48,755
ANTICIPATION FOR THE DAY "2000

1350
00:34:48,755 --> 00:34:50,457
YEARS OF BLINDNESS COME PEELING

1351
00:34:50,457 --> 00:34:52,726
OFF MY MIND" MIGHT MAKE ME WANT

1352
00:34:52,726 --> 00:34:54,294
TO KEEP A CERTAIN DISTANCE FROM

1353
00:34:54,294 --> 00:34:55,662
THEM.

1354
00:34:55,662 --> 00:34:56,696
AND YET, WATCH AS HAGEE, A FEW

1355
00:34:56,696 --> 00:34:58,365
YEARS AGO, INTRODUCED A SPECIAL

1356
00:34:58,365 --> 00:35:00,066
GUEST STAR TO HIS FOLLOWERS:

1357
00:35:00,066 --> 00:35:04,504
WOULD YOU PLEASE WELCOME MY

1358
00:35:04,504 --> 00:35:06,072
FRIEND AND PRIME MINISTER OF

1359
00:35:06,072 --> 00:35:07,073
ISRAEL, BENJAMIN NETANYAHU?

1360
00:35:07,073 --> 00:35:09,209
THANK YOU, PASTOR HAGEE.

1361
00:35:09,209 --> 00:35:11,044
YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE FOR US.

1362
00:35:11,044 --> 00:35:12,812
WE HAVE NO BETTER FRIENDS ON

1363
00:35:12,812 --> 00:35:13,580
EARTH THAN YOU.

1364
00:35:13,580 --> 00:35:15,315
[APPLAUSE]

1365
00:35:15,315 --> 00:35:16,516
John: WOW.

1366
00:35:16,516 --> 00:35:17,517
"NO BETTER FRIENDS."

1367
00:35:17,517 --> 00:35:18,852
I GUESS THAT MAKES SENSE.

1368
00:35:18,852 --> 00:35:25,925
SOME FRIENDS DRIVE YOU TO THE

1369
00:35:37,570 --> 00:35:38,138
SUFFERING AS A ONE WAY TICKET TO

1370
00:35:38,138 --> 00:35:39,706
BE CHRIST-BLASTED BY A

1371
00:35:39,706 --> 00:35:40,173
FLYING RAPTURE JESUS.

1372
00:35:40,173 --> 00:35:40,940
FRIENDSHIP TAKES SO MANY FORMS!

1373
00:35:40,940 --> 00:35:41,574
AND IN RECENT YEARS, EVERYTHING

1374
00:35:41,574 --> 00:35:42,208
I'VE SHOWN YOU HAS ONLY GOTTEN

1375
00:35:42,208 --> 00:35:42,842
WORSE.

1376
00:35:42,842 --> 00:35:43,743
IN 2022, BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, IN

1377
00:35:43,743 --> 00:35:44,377
ORDER TO HOLD ONTO POWER, FORMED

1378
00:35:44,377 --> 00:35:45,011
A GOVERNING COALITION BY ALLYING

1379
00:35:45,011 --> 00:35:45,545
WITH LEADERS OF FAR-RIGHT

1380
00:35:45,545 --> 00:35:46,079
PARTIES, CREATING THE MOST

1381
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:47,747
RIGHT-WING GOVERNMENT IN

1382
00:35:47,747 --> 00:35:48,481
ISRAEL'S HISTORY.

1383
00:35:48,481 --> 00:35:49,115
HE PUT EXTREMIST POLITICIANS--

1384
00:35:49,115 --> 00:35:49,816
SOME OF WHOM ARE SETTLERS

1385
00:35:49,816 --> 00:35:50,450
THEMSELVES-- IN MAJOR POSITIONS

1386
00:35:50,450 --> 00:35:51,818
OF POWER.

1387
00:35:51,818 --> 00:35:53,186
HIS CURRENT FINANCE MINISTER,

1388
00:35:53,186 --> 00:35:53,687
BEZALEL SMOTRICH, OPENLY

1389
00:35:53,687 --> 00:35:54,454
ADVOCATES FOR ISRAELI ANNEXATION

1390
00:35:54,454 --> 00:35:55,989
OF THE WEST BANK.

1391
00:35:55,989 --> 00:35:57,157
AND HIS MINISTER OF NATIONAL

1392
00:35:57,157 --> 00:35:58,491
SECURITY IS ITMAR BEN-GVIR, WHO

1393
00:35:58,491 --> 00:36:01,828
NOT ONLY LIVES IN HEBRON--

1394
00:36:01,828 --> 00:36:03,229
YOU KNOW, THE FUN PLACE WITH THE

1395
00:36:03,229 --> 00:36:04,097
FLYING BOTTLES AND

1396
00:36:04,097 --> 00:36:05,432
REMOTE-CONTROL MACHINE GUNS--

1397
00:36:05,432 --> 00:36:05,999
HE'S ALSO BEEN CONVICTED OF

1398
00:36:05,999 --> 00:36:07,367
INCITEMENT TO RACISM AND

1399
00:36:07,367 --> 00:36:07,834
SUPPORTING A TERRORIST

1400
00:36:07,834 --> 00:36:08,735
ORGANIZATION.

1401
00:36:08,735 --> 00:36:09,302
ALL THIS WAS A HUGE WIN FOR

1402
00:36:09,302 --> 00:36:11,004
HARDLINE SETTLERS.

1403
00:36:11,004 --> 00:36:11,705
JUST LISTEN TO THIS ISRAELI

1404
00:36:11,705 --> 00:36:13,707
SOLDIER GLOATING TO PALESTINIANS

1405
00:36:13,707 --> 00:36:17,177
IN HEBRON ABOUT WHAT BEN-GVIR'S

1406
00:36:17,177 --> 00:36:20,580
ASCENT WOULD MEAN.

1407
00:36:20,580 --> 00:36:27,654
[SPEAKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE]

1408
00:36:32,225 --> 00:36:37,263
[SPEAKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE]

1409
00:36:37,263 --> 00:36:39,466
John: WOW, "I DECIDE WHAT THE

1410
00:36:39,466 --> 00:36:40,800
LAW IS AND YOUR ACTIONS ARE

1411
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,335
ILLEGAL."

1412
00:36:42,335 --> 00:36:46,106
THAT IS A BOLD FUCKING ATTITUDE.

1413
00:36:46,106 --> 00:36:47,140
IT'S THE SORT OF THING AN

1414
00:36:47,140 --> 00:36:50,777
AMERICAN COP WOULD ONLY BE

1415
00:36:50,777 --> 00:36:51,344
COMFORTABLE TATTOOING ABOVE

1416
00:36:51,344 --> 00:36:51,745
THEIR SLEEVE LINE.

1417
00:36:51,745 --> 00:36:52,979
SO THINGS WERE ALREADY GETTING

1418
00:36:52,979 --> 00:36:55,615
BAD, AND THEN THE APPALLING

1419
00:36:55,615 --> 00:36:56,249
ATTACKS OF OCTOBER 7TH HAPPENED.

1420
00:36:56,249 --> 00:36:56,916
AND SINCE THEN, THINGS HAVE

1421
00:36:56,916 --> 00:36:58,084
GOTTEN CONSIDERABLY WORSE.

1422
00:36:58,084 --> 00:36:59,452
ISRAEL IMPOSED EVEN TIGHTER

1423
00:36:59,452 --> 00:37:00,520
RESTRICTIONS ON PALESTINIAN

1424
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:01,888
MOVEMENT IN THE WEST BANK, WITH

1425
00:37:01,888 --> 00:37:03,123
CHECKPOINTS INCREASINGLY CLOSED,

1426
00:37:03,123 --> 00:37:04,190
AND MANY WORK PERMITS CANCELED,

1427
00:37:04,190 --> 00:37:05,492
MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR MANY

1428
00:37:05,492 --> 00:37:07,060
PALESTINIANS THERE TO MAKE A

1429
00:37:07,060 --> 00:37:07,594
LIVING.

1430
00:37:07,594 --> 00:37:08,595
MEANWHILE, ATTACKS ON

1431
00:37:08,595 --> 00:37:09,963
PALESTINIANS HAVE ONLY SPIKED

1432
00:37:09,963 --> 00:37:11,331
FROM WHAT WERE ALREADY HISTORIC

1433
00:37:11,331 --> 00:37:13,533
HIGHS, TO THE POINT THAT THE

1434
00:37:13,533 --> 00:37:14,300
U.N.'S FOUND AT LEAST 19 ENTIRE

1435
00:37:14,300 --> 00:37:17,137
PALESTINIAN COMMUNITIES HAVE

1436
00:37:17,137 --> 00:37:18,571
BEEN DISPLACED AS A DIRECT

1437
00:37:18,571 --> 00:37:20,940
RESULT OF SETTLER VIOLENCE SINCE

1438
00:37:20,940 --> 00:37:22,175
OCTOBER.

1439
00:37:22,175 --> 00:37:23,443
AND IN THE MIDST OF ALL THIS,

1440
00:37:23,443 --> 00:37:24,044
SMOTRICH ANNOUNCED THE SEIZURE

1441
00:37:24,044 --> 00:37:26,579
OF NEARLY 4 SQUARE MILES OF

1442
00:37:26,579 --> 00:37:27,247
PALESTINIAN TERRITORY IN THE

1443
00:37:27,247 --> 00:37:29,315
WEST BANK, THE SINGLE LARGEST

1444
00:37:29,315 --> 00:37:30,183
LAND GRAB SINCE THE OSLO

1445
00:37:30,183 --> 00:37:31,217
ACCORDS.

1446
00:37:31,217 --> 00:37:33,353
IS IT ANY WONDER THAT ISRAELI

1447
00:37:33,353 --> 00:37:36,089
SECURITY CHIEFS HAVE WARNED THAT

1448
00:37:36,089 --> 00:37:37,323
THE WEST BANK COULD BE ON THE

1449
00:37:37,323 --> 00:37:37,891
BRINK OF A MAJOR ERUPTION OF

1450
00:37:37,891 --> 00:37:38,892
VIOLENCE?

1451
00:37:38,892 --> 00:37:39,693
AND WHEN YOU TAKE ALL THIS

1452
00:37:39,693 --> 00:37:41,961
TOGETHER, YOU BEGIN TO

1453
00:37:41,961 --> 00:37:43,663
UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY ISRAELIS

1454
00:37:43,663 --> 00:37:44,764
AND PALESTINIANS HAVE DESPAIRED

1455
00:37:44,764 --> 00:37:45,765
OF EVER ACHIEVING A TWO-STATE

1456
00:37:45,765 --> 00:37:46,566
SOLUTION.

1457
00:37:46,566 --> 00:37:47,100
AND THE THING IS, AS THIS

1458
00:37:47,100 --> 00:37:48,368
SETTLER POINTED OUT NEARLY A

1459
00:37:48,368 --> 00:37:49,936
DECADE AGO-- FOR MANY OF THEM,

1460
00:37:49,936 --> 00:37:52,238
THAT'S BASICALLY BEEN THE

1461
00:37:52,238 --> 00:37:52,772
STRATEGY.

1462
00:37:52,772 --> 00:37:53,373
YOU CAN BASICALLY KISS THE

1463
00:37:53,373 --> 00:37:54,307
TWO-STATE SOLUTION GOODBYE.

1464
00:37:54,307 --> 00:37:55,742
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

1465
00:37:55,742 --> 00:37:58,378
WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO MOVE

1466
00:37:58,378 --> 00:38:01,915
IN THERE, AND EVENTUALLY, WE ARE

1467
00:38:01,915 --> 00:38:02,716
GOING TO HAVE MORE JEWISH

1468
00:38:02,716 --> 00:38:06,286
COMMUNITIES THERE, MORE ISRAELI

1469
00:38:06,286 --> 00:38:07,020
ELECTRICITY, MORE ISRAELI ROADS,

1470
00:38:07,020 --> 00:38:10,890
MORE ISRAELI TAXES.

1471
00:38:10,890 --> 00:38:11,524
AND THEN, IN THE END, IT'S JUST

1472
00:38:11,524 --> 00:38:12,625
GOING TO BE ISRAEL.

1473
00:38:12,625 --> 00:38:13,393
John: YEAH, RELENTLESS

1474
00:38:13,393 --> 00:38:14,127
EXPANSION HAS MADE THE IDEA OF

1475
00:38:14,127 --> 00:38:16,029
PEACE TALKS A JOKE.

1476
00:38:16,029 --> 00:38:16,629
AND I WHEN I SAY JOKE, I DON'T

1477
00:38:16,629 --> 00:38:17,731
MEAN SOMETHING THAT'S "FUNNY HA

1478
00:38:17,731 --> 00:38:18,798
HA," I MEAN SOMETHING THAT'S

1479
00:38:18,798 --> 00:38:19,632
DEEPLY DEPRESSING.

1480
00:38:19,632 --> 00:38:20,500
YOU KNOW, A JOKE IN THE SAME WAY

1481
00:38:20,500 --> 00:38:21,334

1482
00:38:21,334 --> 00:38:22,402
AS THIS AUDIENCE THAT WAS

1483
00:38:22,402 --> 00:38:23,870
EXCITED TO BE HERE HALF AN HOUR

1484
00:38:23,870 --> 00:38:25,271
AGO WILL TELL YOU-- IS

1485
00:38:25,271 --> 00:38:27,007
STRETCHING THE TERM TO BREAKING

1486
00:38:27,007 --> 00:38:28,208
POINT.

1487
00:38:28,208 --> 00:38:30,010
SO WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

1488
00:38:30,010 --> 00:38:35,048
WELL, AT THIS POINT, IT DOES

1489
00:38:35,048 --> 00:38:35,782
FEEL PRESUMPTUOUS TO EVEN TALK

1490
00:38:35,782 --> 00:38:36,416
ABOUT "A PEACE PROCESS," BECAUSE

1491
00:38:36,416 --> 00:38:40,854
WE'RE SO FAR FROM BEING IN A

THERE'S ACTUALLY A MOMENT THAT I

1494
00:38:42,989 --> 00:38:43,790

1495

1496
00:38:44,424 --> 00:38:45,325
TALKING TO A GERMAN DELEGATION A

1497
00:38:45,325 --> 00:38:46,393
FEW YEARS AGO.

1498
00:38:46,393 --> 00:38:47,460

1499
00:38:47,460 --> 00:38:48,995

1500

1501
00:38:49,662 --> 00:38:50,797
ISRAELI COUNTERPARTS TO SHOW

1502
00:38:50,797 --> 00:38:52,032

1503
00:38:52,032 --> 00:38:55,335

1505
00:38:55,935 --> 00:38:57,037

1506
00:38:57,037 --> 00:38:59,973
DIPLOMATIC RESPONSE.

1507
00:38:59,973 --> 00:39:02,108
WHEN WE FEEL THAT WE ARE NOT

1508
00:39:02,108 --> 00:39:03,743
TREATED AS SLAVES, AND THEY ARE

1509
00:39:03,743 --> 00:39:07,247
MASTERS, WE ARE READY TO DO

1510
00:39:07,247 --> 00:39:12,585
EVERYTHING.

1511
00:39:12,585 --> 00:39:13,219
BUT WHEN I'M-- I HAVE TO TAKE

1512
00:39:13,219 --> 00:39:14,320
OFF ALL MY CLOTHES IN FRONT OF

1513
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:18,591
ALL THE PEOPLE BECAUSE A SOLDIER

1514
00:39:18,591 --> 00:39:20,060
OF 16-YEARS-OLD IS ASKING ME TO

1515
00:39:20,060 --> 00:39:21,861
DO SO UNDER-- UNDER THE THREAT

1516
00:39:21,861 --> 00:39:24,030
OF-- OF HIS WEAPON, THEN IT'S

1517
00:39:24,030 --> 00:39:27,300
ABOUT DIGNITY.

1518
00:39:27,300 --> 00:39:28,568
YEAH?

1519
00:39:28,568 --> 00:39:29,903
AND WHEN IT COMES TO DIGNITY, I

1520
00:39:29,903 --> 00:39:30,870
THINK IT'S SOMETHING NOT

1521
00:39:30,870 --> 00:39:33,173
NEGOTIABLE.

1522
00:39:33,173 --> 00:39:36,876
RIGHT?

1523
00:39:36,876 --> 00:39:37,243
John: RIGHT.

1524
00:39:37,243 --> 00:39:37,911
HUMAN DIGNITY HAS TO BE A

1525
00:39:37,911 --> 00:39:40,480
PREREQUISITE FOR NEGOTIATING

1526
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:41,348
ANYTHING.

1527
00:39:41,348 --> 00:39:42,582
AND PALESTINIANS IN THE WEST

1528
00:39:42,582 --> 00:39:44,351
BANK HAVE THEIR DIGNITY

1529
00:39:44,351 --> 00:39:45,719
CHALLENGED HUNDREDS OF TIMES A

1530
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:46,519
DAY, FROM HAVING BEER BOTTLES

1531
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:48,021
THROWN AT THEIR HEADS, TO BEING

1532
00:39:48,021 --> 00:39:55,095
DETAINED FOR KICKING BALLS NEAR

1533
00:39:56,896 --> 00:39:57,430

1534
00:39:57,430 --> 00:39:58,331
CROSSING CHECKPOINTS IN

1535
00:39:58,331 --> 00:39:59,232
AMBULANCES, TO HAVING THEIR

1536
00:39:59,232 --> 00:39:59,966
HOMES STOLEN, BULLDOZED, AND

1537
00:39:59,966 --> 00:40:00,333
FAR, FAR WORSE.

1538
00:40:00,333 --> 00:40:00,967
AND TO BE CLEAR: DIGNITY IS THE

1539
00:40:00,967 --> 00:40:01,534
ABSOLUTE BEGINNING OF THIS.

1540
00:40:01,534 --> 00:40:02,635
WHAT'S REQUIRED IS JUSTICE.

1541
00:40:02,635 --> 00:40:03,436
AND THE CALL FOR THAT IS GETTING

1542
00:40:03,436 --> 00:40:08,108
LOUDER.

1543
00:40:08,108 --> 00:40:08,875
JUST LAST WEEK, THE ICJ ISSUED

1544
00:40:08,875 --> 00:40:09,376
AN OPINION THAT ISRAEL'S

1545
00:40:09,376 --> 00:40:16,449
SETTLEMENTS ARE IN VIOLATION OF

1546
00:40:22,389 --> 00:40:23,556
INTERNATIONAL LAW AND ISRAEL

1547
00:40:23,556 --> 00:40:24,724
PRESENCE SHOULD COME TO AN END

1548
00:40:24,724 --> 00:40:25,525
AS RAPIDLY AS POSSIBLE, AND THAT

1549
00:40:25,525 --> 00:40:26,292
ISRAEL HAS AN OBLIGATION TO

1550
00:40:26,292 --> 00:40:27,227
PROVIDE FULL REPARATION FOR THE

1551
00:40:27,227 --> 00:40:30,930
DAMAGE IT'S CAUSED.

1552
00:40:30,930 --> 00:40:32,298
BUT THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT

1553
00:40:32,298 --> 00:40:32,866
HAS ALREADY UNDERMINED THAT

1554
00:40:32,866 --> 00:40:33,366
STATEMENT, SAYING IT'S

1555
00:40:33,366 --> 00:40:35,735
"CONCERNED THE BREADTH OF THE

1556
00:40:35,735 --> 00:40:36,336

AND I DUNNO, MAN.

1560
00:40:37,937 --> 00:40:38,738
THE CONFLICT IS ALREADY PRETTY

1561

FUCKING COMPLICATED.

UP A LOT WITH REGARD TO ISRAEL

1568
00:40:45,845 --> 00:40:47,147

ANTI-GENOCIDE SLOGAN OFTEN

1573

INTERPRETATIONS.

1574
00:40:52,786 --> 00:40:55,121
THERE'S THE ONE THAT MEANS "THIS

1575
00:40:55,121 --> 00:40:55,922
MUST NEVER AGAIN HAPPEN TO THE

1576
00:40:55,922 --> 00:40:57,290

1577
00:40:57,290 --> 00:40:58,825
MEANS "THIS MUST NEVER AGAIN

1578

HAPPEN TO ANY PEOPLE, ANYWHERE."

1579
00:41:00,293 --> 00:41:01,528

1581
00:41:03,329 --> 00:41:04,397

1583
00:41:05,565 --> 00:41:08,335
AND ESPECIALLY AS LONG AS

1584
00:41:08,335 --> 00:41:09,269

1585
00:41:09,269 --> 00:41:11,771

1587

WANT.

1588
00:41:15,642 --> 00:41:16,776

1589
00:41:16,776 --> 00:41:17,410
CONTINUE TO ABET THAT, OR COVER

1590
00:41:17,410 --> 00:41:18,011
FOR IT.

1591
00:41:18,011 --> 00:41:19,546

1596
00:41:26,319 --> 00:41:26,853

1608
00:41:41,067 --> 00:41:42,469
WE SHOULD THEN ACT ACCORDINGLY.
