The full text of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly, September 27, 2024, as provided by the Prime Minister’s Office.
“Mr. President, Ladies and gentlemen, I didn’t intend to come here this year. My country is at war, fighting for its life.
But after I heard the lies and slanders leveled at my country by many of the speakers at this podium, I decided to come here and set the record straight. I decided to come here to speak for my people.
To speak for my country, to speak for the truth. And here’s the truth: Israel seeks peace. Israel yearns for peace. Israel has made peace and will make peace again. Yet we face savage enemies who seek our annihilation, and we must defend ourselves against them.
These savage murderers, our enemies, seek not only to destroy us, but they seek to destroy our common civilization and return all of us to a dark age of tyranny and terror. When I spoke here last year, I said we face the same timeless choice that Moses put before the people of Israel thousands of years ago, as we were about to enter the Promised Land. Moses told us that our actions would determine whether we bequeath to future generations a blessing or a curse.

And that is the choice we face today: the curse of Iran’s unremitting aggression or the blessing of a historic reconciliation between Arab and Jew. In the days that followed that speech, the blessing I spoke of came into sharper focus.
A normalization deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel seemed closer than ever. But then came the curse of October 7th. Thousands of Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists from Gaza burst into Israel in pickup trucks and on motorcycles, and they committed unimaginable atrocities. They savagely murdered 1,200 people. They raped and mutilated women. They beheaded men. They burned babies alive. They burned entire families alive—babies, children, parents, grandparents, in scenes reminiscent of the Nazi Holocaust.
Hamas kidnapped 251 people from dozens of different countries, dragging them into the dungeons of Gaza. Israel has brought home 154 of these hostages, including 117 who returned alive. I want to assure you, we will not rest until the remaining hostages are brought home too, and some of their family members are here with us today. I ask you to stand up.
With us is Eli Shtivi, whose son Idan was abducted from the Nova music festival. That was his crime—a music festival. And these murderous monsters took him. Koby Samerano, whose son Jonathan was murdered, and his corpse was taken into the dungeons, into the terror tunnels of Gaza—a corpse held hostage.
Salem Alatrash, whose brother Mohammad, a brave Arab Israeli soldier, was murdered. His body, too, was taken to Gaza. And so was the body of Ifat Haiman’s daughter, Inbar, who was brutally murdered at that same music festival.
With us is Sharon Sharabi, whose brother Yossi was murdered, and who prays for his older brother Eli, who is still held hostage in Gaza. And with us too is Yizhar Lifshitz from Kibbutz Nir Oz, a kibbutz that was wiped out by the terrorists.
Thankfully, we achieved the release of his mother, Yocheved, but his father, Oded, is still languishing in the underground terrorist hell of Hamas. I again promise you, we will return your loved ones home. We will not spare that effort until this holy mission is accomplished.
War on seven fronts
Ladies and gentlemen, the curse of October 7th began when Hamas invaded Israel from Gaza, but it didn’t end there. Israel was soon forced to defend itself on six more war fronts organized by Iran.
On October 8th, Hezbollah attacked us from Lebanon. Since then, they have fired over 8,000 rockets at our towns and cities, at our civilians, at our children. Two weeks later, the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen launched drones and missiles at Israel, the first of 250 such attacks, including one yesterday aimed at Tel Aviv. Iran’s Shiite militias in Syria and Iraq have targeted Israel dozens of times over the past year as well.
Fueled by Iran, Palestinian terrorists in Judea and Samaria perpetrated scores of attacks there and throughout Israel. And last April, for the first time ever, Iran directly attacked Israel from its own territory.
Firing 300 drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles at us. I have a message for the tyrants of Tehran: If you strike us, we will strike you. There is no place—there is no place in Iran—that the long arm of Israel cannot reach. And that’s true of the entire Middle East.
Far from being lambs led to the slaughter, Israel’s soldiers have fought back with incredible courage and with heroic sacrifice. And I have another message for this assembly and for the world outside this hall: We are winning.
Blessing or curse
Ladies and gentlemen, as Israel defends itself against Iran in this seven-front war, the lines separating the blessing and the curse could not be more clear. This is the map I presented here last year. It’s a map of a blessing.
It shows Israel and its Arab partners forming a land bridge connecting Asia and Europe. Between the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, across this bridge, we will lay rail lines, energy pipelines, and fiber optic cables, and this will serve the betterment of 2 billion people.
Now look at this second map. It’s a map of a curse. It’s a map of an arc of terror that Iran has created and imposed from the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean. Iran’s malignant arc has shut down international waterways.

It cuts off trade, it destroys nations from within, and inflicts misery on millions. On the one hand, a bright blessing—a future of hope. On the other hand, a dark future of despair. And if you think this dark map is only a curse for Israel, then you should think again.
Because Iran’s aggression, if it’s not checked, will endanger every single country in the Middle East, and many, many countries in the rest of the world, because Iran seeks to impose its radicalism well beyond the Middle East.
That’s why it funds terror networks on five continents. That’s why it builds ballistic missiles for nuclear warheads to threaten the entire world. For too long, the world has appeased Iran. It turned a blind eye to its internal repression. It turned a blind eye to its external aggression. Well, that appeasement must end. And that appeasement must end now.
Nations of the world should support the brave people of Iran who want to rid themselves of this evil regime. Responsible governments should not only support Israel in rolling back Iran’s aggression, but they should join Israel. They should join Israel in stopping Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
In this body and the Security Council, we’re going to have a deliberation in a few months. And I call on the Security Council to snap back UN Security Council sanctions against Iran because we must all do everything in our power to ensure that Iran never gets nuclear weapons. For decades, I’ve been warning the world against Iran’s nuclear program. Our actions delayed this program by perhaps a decade, but we haven’t stopped it. We’ve delayed it, but we haven’t stopped it. Iran now seeks to weaponize its nuclear program. For the sake of the peace and security of all your countries.
For the sake of the peace and security of the entire world, we must not let that happen. And I assure you, Israel will do everything in its power to make sure it doesn’t happen.
So, ladies and gentlemen, the question before us is simple: Which of these two maps that I showed you will shape our future? Will it be the blessings of peace and prosperity for Israel, our Arab partners, and the rest of the world?
Or will it be the curse in which Iran and its proxies spread carnage and chaos everywhere? Israel has already made its choice. We’ve decided to advance the blessing. We’re building a partnership for peace with our Arab neighbors while fighting the forces of terror that threaten that peace.
Hamas has to go
For nearly a year, the brave men and women of the IDF have been systematically crushing Hamas’s terror army that once ruled Gaza. On October 7th, the day of that invasion into Israel, that terror army numbered nearly 40,000 terrorists. It was armed with more than 15,000 rockets. It had 350 miles of terror tunnels—an underground network bigger than the New York subway system—which they used to wreak havoc above and below ground.
A year later, the IDF has killed or captured more than half of these terrorists, destroyed over 90% of their rocket arsenal, and eliminated the key segments of their terror tunnel network.
In measured military operations, we destroyed nearly all of Hamas’s terror battalions—23 out of 24 battalions. Now, to complete our victory, we are focused on mopping up Hamas’s remaining fighting capabilities.
We are taking out senior terrorist commanders and destroying remaining terrorist infrastructure. But all the while, we remain focused on our sacred mission: bringing our hostages home, and we will not stop until that mission is complete.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, even with Hamas’s greatly diminished military capability, the terrorists still exercise some governing power in Gaza by stealing the food that we enable aid agencies to bring into Gaza.
Hamas steals the food, and then they hike the prices. They feed their bellies, and then they fill their coffers with money they extort from their own people. They sell the stolen food at exorbitant prices, and that’s how they stay in power. Well, this too has to end, and we’re working to bring it to an end.
And the reason is simple: because if Hamas stays in power, it will regroup, rearm, and attack Israel again and again and again, as it has vowed to do. So, Hamas has got to go.
Just imagine, for those who say Hamas has to stay, it has to be part of a post-war Gaza—imagine, in a post-war situation after World War II, allowing the defeated Nazis in 1945 to rebuild Germany? It’s inconceivable. It’s ridiculous. It didn’t happen then, and it’s not going to happen now.
This is why Israel will reject any role for Hamas in a post-war Gaza. We don’t seek to resettle Gaza. What we seek is a demilitarized and de-radicalized Gaza. Only then can we ensure that this round of fighting will be the last round of fighting.
We are ready to work with regional and other partners to support a local civilian administration in Gaza, committed to peaceful coexistence.
As for the hostages, I have a message for the Hamas captors: Let them go. Let them go. All of them. Those alive today must be returned alive, and the remains of those whom you brutally killed must be returned to their families. Those families here with us today and others in Israel deserve to have a resting place for their loved ones. A place where they can grieve and remember them.
Ladies and gentlemen, this war can come to an end now. All that has to happen is for Hamas to surrender, lay down its arms, and release all the hostages. But if they don’t, we will fight until we achieve victory. Total victory. There is no substitute for it.
On Hezbollah, ‘enough is enough’
Israel must also defeat Hezbollah in Lebanon. Hezbollah is the quintessential terror organization in the world today.
It has tentacles that span all continents. It has murdered more Americans and more Frenchmen than any group except Bin Laden. It’s murdered the citizens of many countries represented in this room. And it has attacked Israel viciously over the last 20 years.
In the last year, completely unprovoked, a day after the Hamas massacre on October 7th, Hezbollah began attacks against Israel, which forced more than 60,000 Israelis on our northern border to leave their homes, becoming refugees in their own land.
Hezbollah turned vibrant towns in the north of Israel into ghost towns. So I want you to think about this in equivalent American terms. Just imagine if terrorists turned El Paso and San Diego into ghost towns.
Then ask yourself: How long would the American government tolerate that? A day, a week, a month? I doubt they would tolerate it even for a single day.
Yet Israel has been tolerating this intolerable situation for nearly a year. Well, I’ve come here today to say enough is enough.
We won’t rest until our citizens can return safely to their homes. We will not accept a terror army perched on our northern border, able to perpetrate another October 7th-style massacre.
For 18 years, Hezbollah brazenly refused to implement UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which requires it to move its forces away from our borders. Instead, Hezbollah moved right up to our border. They secretly dug terror tunnels to infiltrate our communities and indiscriminately fired thousands of rockets into our towns and villages.
They fire these rockets and missiles not from military sites—they do that too—but they fire those rockets and missiles after they place them in schools, in hospitals, in apartment buildings, and in the private homes of the citizens of Lebanon. They endanger their own people. They put a missile in every kitchen.
A rocket in every garage. I said to the people of Lebanon this week: Get out of the death trap that Hezbollah has put you in. Don’t let Nasrallah drag Lebanon into the abyss. We’re not at war with you. We’re at war with Hezbollah, which has hijacked your country and threatens to destroy ours.
As long as Hezbollah chooses the path of war, Israel has no choice. And Israel has every right to remove this threat and return our citizens to their homes safely, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.
Just this week, the IDF destroyed large percentages of Hezbollah’s rockets, which were built with Iran’s funding for three decades. We took out senior military commanders who not only shed Israeli blood but American and French blood as well.
And then we took out their replacements. And then the replacements of their replacements. And we’ll continue degrading Hezbollah until all our objectives are met.
A path to historic peace
Ladies and gentlemen, we’re committed to removing the curse of terrorism that threatens all civilized societies. But to truly realize the blessing of a new Middle East, we must continue the path we paved with the Abraham Accords four years ago. Above all, this means achieving a historic peace agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
And having seen the blessings that we’ve already brought with the Abraham Accords, the millions of Israelis who have already flown back and forth across the Arabian Peninsula over the skies of Saudi Arabia to the Gulf countries, the trade, the tourism, the joint ventures, the peace—I say to you, what blessings such a peace with Saudi Arabia would bring.
It would be a boon to the security and economy of our two countries. It would boost trade and tourism across the region. It would help transform the Middle East into a global juggernaut.
Our two countries could cooperate on energy, water, agriculture, artificial intelligence, and many, many other fields. Such a peace, I am sure, would be a true pivot of history. It would usher in a historic reconciliation between the Arab world and Israel, between Islam and Judaism, between Mecca and Jerusalem.
While Israel is committed to achieving such a peace, Iran and its terror proxies are committed to scuttling it. That’s why one of the best ways to foil Iran’s nefarious designs is to achieve the peace.
Such a peace would be the foundation for an even broader Abrahamic alliance, and that alliance would include the United States, Israel’s current Arab peace partners, Saudi Arabia, and others who choose the blessing of peace.
It would advance security and prosperity across the Middle East and bring enormous benefits to the rest of the world. With American support and leadership, I believe this vision can materialize much sooner than people think. And as the Prime Minister of Israel, I will do everything in my power to make it happen. This is an opportunity that we and the world should not let go by.
A choice for the world
Ladies and gentlemen, Israel has made its choice. We seek to move forward to a bright age of prosperity and peace. Iran and its proxies have also made their choice. They want to move back to a dark age of terror and war.
And now I have a question, and I pose that question to you: What choice will you make? Will your nation stand with Israel? Will you stand with democracy and peace? Or will you stand with Iran, a brutal dictatorship that subjugates its own people and exports terrorism across the globe?
In this battle between good and evil, there must be no equivocation. When you stand with Israel, you stand for your own values and your own interests. Yes, we’re defending ourselves, but we’re also defending you against a common enemy that, through violence and terror, seeks to destroy our way of life. So there should be no confusion about this, but unfortunately, there is a lot of it in many countries and in this very hall, as I’ve just heard.
Good is portrayed as evil, and evil is portrayed as good.
We see this moral confusion when Israel is falsely accused of genocide when we defend ourselves against enemies who try to commit genocide against us. We see this too when Israel is absurdly accused by the ICC Prosecutor of deliberately starving Palestinians in Gaza.
What an absurdity. We help bring in 700,000 tons of food into Gaza. That’s more than 3,000 calories a day for every man, woman, and child in Gaza. We see this moral confusion when Israel is falsely accused of deliberately targeting civilians.
We don’t want to see a single innocent person die. That’s always a tragedy. And that’s why we do so much to minimize civilian casualties, even as our enemies use civilians as human shields.
And no army has done what Israel is doing to minimize civilian casualties. We drop flyers. We send text messages. We make phone calls by the millions to ensure that Palestinian civilians get out of harm’s way. We spare no effort in this noble pursuit.
We see yet another profound moral confusion when self-described progressives march against the democracy of Israel. Don’t they realize they support the Iranian-backed goons in Tehran and in Gaza, the goons who shot down protesters, murder women for not covering their hair, and hang gays in public squares? Some progressives.
According to the U.S. Director of National Intelligence, Iran funds and fuels many of the protesters against Israel. Who knows, maybe some of the protesters or even many of the protesters outside this building now?
Ladies and gentlemen, King Solomon, who reigned in our eternal capital, Jerusalem, 3,000 years ago, proclaimed something that is familiar to all of you. He said: There is nothing new under the sun.
Well, in an age of space travel, quantum physics, and artificial intelligence, some would argue that’s a debatable statement. But one thing is undeniable: there is definitely nothing new at the United Nations.
Take it from me. I first spoke from this podium as Israel’s ambassador to the UN in 1984. That’s exactly 40 years ago. And in my maiden speech here, I spoke against a proposal to expel Israel from this body. Four decades later, I find myself defending Israel against that same preposterous proposal.
And who’s leading the charge this time? Not Hamas, but Abbas.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. This is the man who claims he wants peace with Israel, yet he still refuses to condemn the horrific massacre of October 7th. He’s still paying hundreds of millions to terrorists who murdered Israelis and Americans.
It’s called Pay for Slay. The more you murder, the more you get paid.
And he still wages unremitting diplomatic warfare against Israel’s right to exist and against Israel’s right to defend itself. And by the way, they amount to the same thing, because if you can’t defend yourself, you can’t exist. Not in our neighborhood, certainly. And maybe not in yours.
Standing at this podium 40 years ago, I told the sponsors of that outrageous resolution to expel Israel: Gentlemen, check your fanaticism at the door. Today, I tell President Abbas and all of you who would shamefully support that resolution: Check your fanaticism at the door.
The UN ‘swamp of antisemitic bile’
The singling out of the one and only Jewish state continues to be a moral stain on the United Nations. It has made this once-respected institution contemptible in the eyes of decent people everywhere. But for the Palestinians, this UN house of darkness is home court. They know that in this swamp of antisemitic bile, there’s an automatic majority willing to demonize the Jewish state for anything. In this anti-Israel flat-earth society, any false charge, any outlandish allegation can muster a majority.
In the last decade, there have been more resolutions passed against Israel in this hall, in the UN General Assembly, than against the entire world combined. Actually, more than twice as many. Since 2014, this body condemned Israel 174 times.
It condemned all the other countries in the world 73 times. That’s more than 100 extra condemnations for the Jewish state. What hypocrisy. What a double standard. What a joke.
So, all the speeches you heard today, all the hostility directed at Israel this year—it’s not about Gaza; it’s about Israel. It’s always been about Israel. About Israel’s very existence. And I say to you, until Israel, until the Jewish state, is treated like other nations, until this antisemitic swamp is drained, the UN will be viewed by fair-minded people everywhere as nothing more than a contemptuous farce.
And given the antisemitism at the UN, it should surprise no one that the prosecutor at the ICC, one of the UN’s affiliated organs, is considering issuing arrest warrants against me and Israel’s defense minister, the democratically elected leaders of the democratic state of Israel.
The ICC prosecutor’s rush to judgment, his refusal to treat Israel with its independent courts the way other democracies are treated, is hard to explain by anything other than pure antisemitism.
Ladies and gentlemen, the real war criminals are not in Israel. They’re in Iran. They’re in Gaza, in Syria, in Lebanon, in Yemen. Those of you who stand with these war criminals, those of you who stand with evil against good, with the curse against the blessing, those of you who do so should be ashamed of yourselves.
We will win because we don’t have a choice
But I have a message for you: Israel will win this battle. We will win this battle because we don’t have a choice.
After generations in which our people were slaughtered, remorselessly butchered, and no one raised a finger in our defense, we now have a state. We now have a brave army, an army of incomparable courage, and we are defending ourselves.

As the book of Samuel says in the Bible:
“נֵ֣צַח יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לֹ֥א יְשַׁקֵּ֖ר”
“The eternity of Israel will not falter”.
In the Jewish people’s epic journey from antiquity, in our odyssey through the tempest and upheavals of modern times, that ancient promise has always been kept and it will hold true for all time.
To borrow a great poet’s phrase: Israel will not go gently into that good night. We will never need to rage against the dying of the light because the torch of Israel will forever shine bright.
To the people of Israel and to the soldiers of Israel, I say: Be strong and of good courage.
“חִזְק֣וּ וְאִמְצ֔וּ אַל־תִּֽירְא֥וּ וְאַל־תַּעַרְצ֖וּ מִפְּנֵיהֶ֑ם כִּ֣י ה’ אֱלֹקיךָ ה֚וּא הַהֹלֵ֣ךְ עִמָּ֔ךְ לֹ֥א יַרְפְּךָ֖ וְלֹ֥א יַעַזְבֶֽךּ”
עם ישראל חי
The people of Israel live now, tomorrow, forever”.

Brings to mind 1930s Weimar Germany.https://archive.md/wFqVy
https://www.theblaze.com/news/ethics-professor-mandated-morality-pills
———————————- wow just Wow, especially knowing what we know now….
In a lengthy essay for the Conversation, Crutchfield — an ethicist from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo — said that the government could mandate “morality pills” to force citizens to comply with federal and state government mandates and to make them more cooperative and receptive.
Such mandates currently include social distancing and mask-wearing, and “morality pills,” in effect, would chemically coerce citizens to follow the rules in order to eradicate the spread of coronavirus.
In his remarks, Crutchfield said that the government could use hormones and/or synthetic drugs to force people into following health regulations due to COVID-19 — or, as he put it, “morally enhance” people.
In 1931, over 60 percent of German films were produced by Jews and 82 percent of the film scripts were written by Jewish writers, though Jews made up less than 1 percent of the German population (0.9o%). A quick look at the names of directors, producers, stage managers, actors, script writers and critics, “revealed everywhere an overwhelming preponderance of Jews.”
A cursory survey of the film titles, Wiehe tells us, shows us that the Jews had only one thing on the brain: sex. Here are some typical titles: “Moral und Sinnlichkeit” (Morals and Sensuality); “Was kostet Liebe?” (What is the Price of Love); “Wenn ein Weib den Weg verliert” (When a Woman loses her Way); “Prostitution” (Prostitution); “Sündige Mutter” (Sinful Mama);“Das Buch des Lasters” (The Book of Vices).
“The sensational titles correspond to the sleazy contents,” Wiehe complains. “All wallow in filth and display with cynical frankness the vilest scenes of sexual perversion.” [3]
This era boasts of Epstein, Diddy, 9/11, OJ, 2008 economic meltdown, Monica and Bill, Barney Frank, Harvey Weinstein and repeated contested elections.
stock here: I am amazed that this conversation is even being had. But at some point things reach such an extreme, that they cannot be ignored. As the Left continues to win, they will not be exhausted by the effort, but energized in “their righteousness”. So be aware of the situation. Be aware of situational alertness.
On this day of the Octoberfest celebration in my village, and very likely the last day of the outdoor pool at the gym, with a beautiful harvest of fresh vegetables and the planting of garlic, over 100 cloves of “German Hardy” which are huge in size and will produce massive product, to be harvested in early to mid July next year. Then that same land can be used for a secondary crop, or a zone for honeydew or musk melon to crawl into.
I am thinking that as this election unfolds, almost everyone is accepting that huge things could happen. It appears that they have set the stage well. An execution of Trump just days or a day before the election could set the stage for their next rollout of their bullshit New World Order, Marshall law. This is not the time to be working on stupid stuff.
And realize, about half of the population has a personality lean to the wrong side, and 30% of them are likely willing to act on it, or at least watch as atrocities are committed. We never understood how the Holocaust occurred, how could it have occurred.
A certain percent of humans are truly defective, but just as Bill Gates, decades ago was proud of how a vaccine could reduce spirituality, I wonder if an effect of the injections was to target the Hypothalamus and Limbic System, or other areas of the brain that are related to Super-Ego or Conscience, such as anxiety, anger, stress and fear response. And make shitty people, just more shitty.
And just why the hell has Trump not hired his own security force?

Summary of the first set of comments: AI
The comments on John Mearsheimer’s analysis reflect a broad range of support for his critiques of U.S. and Israeli foreign policy, with key themes centered around the power of the Israeli lobby (AIPAC), America’s role in the Middle East, and the ongoing conflict with Palestine. Here’s a summary of the main points:
Critique of U.S. Foreign Policy and Influence of AIPAC:
Many comments highlight that Mearsheimer’s arguments focus on the disproportionate influence of the Israeli lobby (AIPAC) in shaping U.S. foreign policy, especially in regard to support for Israel irrespective of its actions.
Several commenters (e.g., @Offa7a, @ralphlinville6646) note that AIPAC’s power has extended beyond foreign policy, affecting domestic policies as well, which some believe undermines true U.S. interests.
Mearsheimer’s Credibility and Track Record:
Multiple users commend Mearsheimer for his accuracy and consistency in predicting outcomes, such as Iran benefiting from the Iraq War rather than the U.S. (@harounrashidkamarasr, @karimtamimi9900). His willingness to present fact-based arguments, even when controversial, is appreciated.
There are also comments praising his clear, no-notes delivery style and ability to challenge mainstream narratives (@SectionSixteen, @BeeboHamido).
Disillusionment with Israel’s Policies:
Several users express a shift in their views on Israel after delving into alternative perspectives (@ralphlinville6646), indicating a betrayal or awakening after learning about Israeli policies in Gaza and the West Bank.
The comment from @adamson760 highlights the disillusionment felt by Jewish individuals when they compare the ideals of Zionism with the reality of Israeli state actions.
Criticism of Mainstream Media:
Many commenters point out the absence of such discussions in mainstream media, attributing it to censorship or reluctance to engage with viewpoints that challenge powerful lobbies (@GhettoDefendant, @carjaune6793). They appreciate platforms that give Mearsheimer space to present his views.
Impact on Israel’s Long-Term Strategy:
Some users speculate that Israel’s current strategy could backfire, leading to more isolation and conflict in the region (@mondrisokundolor6691, @RedClaw8605).
There’s a strong belief that Netanyahu’s policies are self-destructive, with a potential for Israel to lose its strategic position in the future (@ralphlinville6646).
Overall, Mearsheimer is celebrated for his ability to provide a fact-based, historically grounded perspective, which many feel is missing from mainstream discussions on these sensitive issues.
stock here: 1.69M followers, summary of half of the transcript by A-Eye
It appears that the conversation excerpt you shared involves a broad discussion covering topics like the relationship between Israel and the U.S., political influence, evangelical support, and how different groups interact within political contexts. To summarize and categorize it, the main themes and topics discussed include:
1. U.S.-Israel Relationship:
The conversation touches on the unique relationship between the U.S. and Israel, highlighting that support for Israel is often seen as unconditional, even if Israel’s policies are in opposition to U.S. recommendations.
The role of lobbying groups like AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) is discussed, with emphasis on their influence over U.S. politics and policy, particularly in relation to American support for Israel.
2. Political Dynamics:
Evangelical Christian support for Israel is discussed, along with how religious beliefs influence American policy toward Israel.
The conversation mentions specific politicians like Thomas Massie and George W. Bush and their navigation of political pressures from different lobby groups.
3. Candace Owens and Commentary:
Candace Owens’ recent comments on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are mentioned, noting how her criticisms drew backlash from within conservative circles. There’s a discussion of how she transitioned from criticism of certain groups to a focus on Israel’s actions.
4. Antisemitism and Sensitivity:
The discussion navigates the fine line between criticizing Israeli policies and engaging in antisemitic rhetoric. It highlights how critics often find it difficult to voice opinions without being labeled negatively, and how these accusations can impact discourse.
5. Historical Context:
Historical references are made to U.S. foreign policy decisions, such as the invasion of Iraq and the role of neoconservatives in shaping U.S. interventionist policies.
The influence of think tanks and the concept of a “benevolent hegemon” are mentioned as ideological underpinnings for U.S. actions abroad.
6. Media Influence and Free Speech:
Concerns about media control and social media influence are raised, particularly in the context of how narratives around conflicts are shaped and the role of independent platforms like Twitter under Elon Musk.
7. Humor and Levity:
Given that this was part of the “Flagrant” podcast, humor and levity were used to address serious topics, which is typical of the style of these discussions, making the conversation accessible yet provocative. The conversation is a broad critique of political influence, lobbying, media narratives, and the challenges of addressing sensitive geopolitical topics without crossing lines into prejudice or misinformation

“The curse of October 7th”
Stock here: I had AI summarize the transcript: Below. One of her Jamaican ancestors was a White Slave Owner Male, Hamilton Brown who had a Daughter with an unknown female (probably a slave), that Daughter was Christiana Brown. Hamilton Brown had 1120 Slaves.
This female’s family history is just odd. Remember when she couldn’t get even 1% support when she tried to “run for president”? She is extremely unlikeable.
Kamala’s dad divorced her mom from India, when she was 7.
Heavy, is actually interesting, dive in:
In the video you’re referring to, Candace Owens discusses a complex investigation into Kamala Harris’s family history, particularly focusing on her father Donald J. Harris and his lineage. Owens claims discrepancies in the official narrative regarding Harris’s family, including multiple documents and certificates related to Kamala’s grandparents and her father’s early life. Key points in the video include:
Timeline Issues: Owens suggests that Donald Harris’s family background may involve multiple marriages and confusing records. She points out that his mother, Barl Harris, had different records showing her as single during the birth of Donald, yet married shortly after to Lawford Newland.
Death Certificates and Family Anomalies: Owens presents a theory that Barl Harris may have lost a child named Donald in 1940, only two years after his birth, based on a death certificate found in St. Ann Parish, Jamaica. This raises questions about Kamala Harris’s father’s identity, as this “Donald Harris” could potentially not be the same person.
Inconsistent Documentation: Owens emphasizes the difficulty in finding consistent marriage, birth, and death records, which leads her to speculate on possible family secrets, including the early death of Kamala’s paternal grandmother and the involvement of Barl Christie in these mysterious events.
Cultural and Familial Terms: Owens remarks on how Donald Harris refers to his mother as “Miss Barl” and his grandmother as “Miss Krishy,” interpreting this as an unusual and formal way of addressing close family members. She questions the authenticity of Harris’s portrayal of his family heritage.
Kamala Harris’s Background: Owens suggests that Kamala Harris’s emphasis on her Black and Jamaican heritage is politically motivated, given her majority Indian and White ancestry. She scrutinizes her father’s Communist ties and questions whether Harris’s public narrative aligns with verifiable facts about her family.
Throughout the video, Owens highlights potential inconsistencies and suggests further scrutiny into the narrative presented by Kamala Harris and her father. The overarching theme is Owens’s skepticism about the portrayal of Kamala Harris’s family history and the legitimacy of the details provided.
————————– A-Eye provided
Kamala Harris’s racial background is a mix of Indian and Jamaican heritage, and we can trace her lineage up to the great-grandparents level as follows:
Father’s Side (Jamaican heritage):
Donald J. Harris, Kamala’s father, is of Afro-Jamaican descent, though there are complexities in his lineage. Donald Harris himself has written that his paternal grandmother, (Christiana Brown) Miss Chrishy, was a descendant of a slave owner, specifically Hamilton Brown, a prominent British plantation owner and slave trader in Jamaica. This means that Kamala’s paternal ancestors likely include both enslaved people and white slave owners.
Donald’s paternal grandfather, Joseph Alexander Harris, was a landowner and agricultural exporter in Jamaica, adding some middle-class standing to the family background.
Mother’s Side (Indian heritage):
Shyamala Gopalan, Kamala’s mother, was an Indian Tamil woman born in Chennai (formerly Madras), India. Her family hails from Tamil Nadu in South India. Kamala’s maternal grandfather, P.V. Gopalan, was a high-ranking Indian civil servant. Her maternal grandmother was Rajam Gopalan.
Summary to the Great-Grandparent Level:
Paternal side (Jamaican): A mix of Afro-Jamaican and likely white (through the Hamilton Brown lineage).
Maternal side (Indian): South Indian Tamil heritage, specifically from Tamil Nadu.
Kamala Harris is thus of African, Indian, and some European descent through her great-grandparents.
Well I’ve looked at her family tree (via genealogy online. Don’t know how accurate it is) and her family are white Irish and (further back) British people on both sides. Her father’s grandmother Ms Chrishy is the granddaughter of Hamilton Brown who was an Irish slave owner in st Ann, Jamaica and Brown’s town is named after him. Donald, Kamala’s father (in his memoir) showed an image of Ms Chrishy that looked like a light skinned black woman or mixed but going by the genealogy/ancestry of both of her parents, she was full white. Her husband was white too so her son oscar must have been white and Beryl Finigan’s ancestry is pure white too. Maybe Beryl had an affair with a mixed race man and got pregnant with Donald and Oscar accepted him as his own. Kamala has only a teaspoon of black in her gene pool. She’s predominantly white Irish and Indian. Her Jamaican family are from high society, owned slaves and were extremely wealthy. In fact, Hamilton Brown was very upset that slavery was abolished. Her family ruled over black people, they were not black people.

The truth is it has been tried and failed grandiosely in the Soviet Union. What you see now in China is nothing like what he envisioned either.
Why do American Jacobins and Marxists hate Russia so much? Because it is no longer a Marxist distopea and it is the place where the Marxist experiment failed magnificently. They can’t stand that. There f-ck buddy Neocon pals just can’t stand a strong state rival of any kind and need to put taxpayer bread on their tables.
Why are these new Marxists happy to join together with murderers? The deal is you control the American people we control the rest of the world. One big happy club.
The big show about saving Palestinians is just that, a big disingenuous woke moron circus act. If the squad and its minions really cared they would do something about it. But how would they then pay for their Teslas and beach houses?
What of the Euro Marxists? More resentment that it failed in the Soviet Union. They forget, however, that were it not for the Russians, they would all be French or German serfs. And ironically, that is essentially what they are now. Europe is one big ideological concentration camp. But they are too busy Schwabbing their anal rainbow green orifices to realize it.
stock here: The Crisis was NOT just butt headed Russians trying to be difficult…..but now this makes the Cuban Crisis even more analogous to the Ukraine Debacle.
Russians stationed their missiles in Cuba, Khrushchev didn’t just come up with a great plan to start a nuclear missiles crisis in Cuba. He was looking for a opportunity to get even with the US for placing nukes in Turkey. So when Fidel Castro asked Khrushchev for help that’s when Khrushchev saw opportunity to get even with the US, and have the Nukes removed from Turkey.
Khrushchev was successful in that regard.

The comment about the Cuban Missile Crisis on QH is essentially accurate. Here’s a breakdown of the relevant facts with further verification and expansion:
Background: U.S. Missiles in Turkey
In 1961, the United States deployed Jupiter nuclear missiles in Turkey, just 150 miles from the Soviet Union. This deployment was a key factor that angered Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, who saw it as a direct threat to Soviet security. The U.S. had stationed these missiles as part of NATO’s defense strategy, but their proximity to Soviet borders made the situation tense. The Jupiter missiles in Turkey were capable of striking major Soviet cities with little warning.
Soviet Response: Missiles in Cuba
In response, Khrushchev sought to balance the strategic playing field by placing Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles from the U.S. This move was partly an attempt to protect the newly established communist regime of Fidel Castro, who had asked Khrushchev for military assistance. However, the placement of the missiles in Cuba also provided the Soviets with a way to retaliate against the U.S. presence in Turkey and equalize the threat level.
The Cuban Missile Crisis (1962)
The discovery of the Soviet missiles in Cuba led to a 13-day standoff between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, which is now known as the Cuban Missile Crisis. U.S. President John F. Kennedy and his administration considered the missiles a grave threat and demanded their removal, leading to a potential nuclear confrontation between the two superpowers.
Secret Deal: Removal of U.S. Missiles from Turkey
Khrushchev did not initiate the Cuban Missile Crisis just to provoke the U.S.; he was indeed seeking to counter the U.S. missile threat in Turkey. The crisis ended when both sides reached a secret agreement. In exchange for the removal of Soviet missiles from Cuba, Kennedy privately agreed to remove U.S. Jupiter missiles from Turkey. However, this part of the deal was not made public at the time to avoid appearing weak to NATO allies or the American public.
Conclusion: Khrushchev’s Strategic Move
Khrushchev was indeed successful in his goal to have the U.S. missiles removed from Turkey, but it came at a cost. The Soviet Union had to withdraw its missiles from Cuba, and the event was widely seen as a strategic defeat for the Soviets, despite the secret success in Turkey. The crisis, however, resulted in improved communication between the superpowers, such as the establishment of the Moscow-Washington hotline, to prevent future escalations.
The documentary may not have mentioned the missile deployment in Turkey, but it was a crucial part of the narrative leading to the Cuban Missile Crisis, as Khrushchev was acting to counter the American threat in his region.
This expanded view captures the full context of Khrushchev’s actions, aligning with the QH comment’s core points.

Progressives Thrive on Deceit
OAN Guest Commentary – Kenin M. Spivak
Wednesday, September 18, 2024
To remake America, progressives have centered on a strategy of rewriting history, distorting current events, changing language, and using false allegations of disinformation, malinformation (facts progressives believe are presented out of context), and racism to censor and suppress centrists and conservatives.
By undermining confidence in American values, progressives have considerably advanced their efforts. They have controlled the White House and at least one House of Congress for 12 of the last 16 years, and the Supreme Court for nearly all of the last 70 years. Almost all major media outlets and reporters are in lockstep with progressive goals, lies, and omissions. Most report only about events and views that benefit the progressive agenda, and mischaracterize or suppress news, information, and opinions that may impede it. Progressives also control most federal agencies, many state agencies, leading universities, school boards, professional organizations such as the American Medical Association and the American Bar Association, most leading think tanks, and many corporate boards.
As the COVID pandemic raged, progressives spoke hopefully of a new world order in which experts would tell us how to live. Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, along with Secretary of State Antony Blinken, often refer to this chaos as the “rules-based international order.” They and other progressives, including Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, see the U.S. as just one among many countries. That is why they oppose immigration controls, support global compacts, subordinate the United States to the United Nations, and believe the U.S. can use economic or military power only when supported by an international coalition.
In a recent article for RealClearPolicy about progressives’ crude ad hominem attacks on conservatives, I explained that progressive dogma is a fierce, culturally Marxist philosophy that: (1) demands all policies, resources, and opportunities be allocated in accordance with a benighted view of oppressors and victims centered on race, sex, and sexual orientation; (2) believes children are wards of the state to be indoctrinated by educators, while physically cared for by parents; (3) represses religion for being what Karl Marx described as “the opium of the people;” and (4) places a green agenda, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), and the rights of criminals above free speech and assembly, the judicial process, and rights of petition. Progressives deny that ISIS and Hamas are terrorists, oppose Israel’s right of defense because Jews are “oppressors,” and believe children may select irreversible gender reassignment surgery without parental consent.
To achieve their goals, progressives must overcome deeply held American beliefs in individual freedom, merit, hard work, and pride in their country.
Curricula based on The 1619 Project, which “aims to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery…at the very center of the United States’ national narrative,” Critical Race Theory (CRT), which teaches that all whites are guilty of bias, and Environmental, Social, and Governance criteria (ESG), which features progressive doctrine on DEI, climate change, and workers’ rights, has been infused into K-12 schools through action civics.
The National Association of Scholars has identified at least 45 state-level education standards in 25 states that incorporate these radical expressions of anti-American animus. Departments of education, accreditation agencies, university administrations, professional licensing organizations, and teachers unions mandate ideological training and DEI goals, and then coerce compliance as a condition of employment, promotion, and appointment to governing boards. Last year, the State Department announced that it will condition promotions and raises on an employee’s loyalty to DEI.
Eliminating or distorting teaching about Western civilization, American exceptionalism, and liberty leaves students uninformed about America’s unique story. An Echelon Insights poll highlights the cumulative impact of this indoctrination. Sixty-six percent of high schoolers viewed the U.S. as exceptional and unique, compared to 47% of college students; 63% of high-schoolers were proud of the U.S., compared to 40% of college students; and 58% of high-schoolers were patriotic, compared to just 35% of college students.
Concurrently, progressives are remaking the acceptable lexicon. They corrupt language and norms to deprive us of the ability to express nuance and understand distinctions.
Leading institutions, including government agencies, professional organizations, and universities, proclaim that our language is replete with hidden racism and genderism that must be cleansed with a new vocabulary featuring ideologically-laden phrases. Among the words that trouble the American Medical Association are “disadvantaged,” “equality,” and “disparities.” The politically acceptable terms are “historically and intentionally excluded,” “equity,” and “inequities.” Similarly, “ex-con” or “felon” are to be replaced with “returning citizen” or “persons with a history of incarceration,” and “fairness” with “social justice.”
“Illegal alien,” the term used in federal law for those who enter the U.S. without proper visas or overstay their visas, first became “undocumented alien” and then “non-citizens,” who somehow deserve all benefits to which citizens are entitled.
The American Dream of “equality” is replaced by “equity.” Instead of seeking fair opportunities, we are to seek outcomes in which so-called marginalized minorities receive benefits at least in proportion to their percentage of the relevant population. According to Ibram X. Kendi, if a person embraces DEI and allocates opportunities by race, he is “anti-racist;” otherwise, he is racist. Whites cannot be the victims of racism, because only members of marginalized minorities can be victims. Over the last several years, dictionary definitions of racism have been stealth edited to conform to this new paradigm.
“Infrastructure” has always meant roads, buildings, bridges, and the like. But progressives have implausibly expanded that term to include paid leave, child care, and caregiving. They falsely described the Biden-Harris $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan as an emergency COVID stimulus plan, even though 90% of the plan had nothing to do with COVID.
Contrary to the Associated Press’s adoption in 2015 of “they” as a singular pronoun, there are only two biological sexes, and an individual has never been a “they.” Just 0.6% of Americans identify as transgender. Yet, insisting there are only two sexes is now hate speech. Multiple professors have sued to retain the right to properly address their students. Columbia University threatens to terminate employees who don’t bow to the fiction that there are multiple genders, and the Biden-Harris Administration allows an “x” to be used as a gender on a passport.
In the wake of Donald Trump’s selection of three conservative Supreme Court justices, progressives advocated court packing by increasing the number of justices. They justified doing so by falsely asserting that Trump’s selection of justices based on their political leanings also was court packing. Dictionary.com changed its definition of court packing to “the practice of changing the number or composition of judges on a court, making it more favorable to particular goals or ideologies, and typically involving an increase in the number of seats on the court.” Here, “typically” supplants “always,” which is the threshold condition of court packing. Selecting justices based on their views is not court packing—it is what all presidents do. This is not mere semantics. This is a ploy intended to overcome the opposition of majorities of voters in both parties.
As progressives erase and change language, history, and values to create a foundation to change America’s way of life, they also corruptly fabricate, suppress, and misrepresent recent and current events to confuse voters, shield accountability for their failures, and disparage their opponents. The following is a list of recent political hoaxes promoted by progressive elected officials, bureaucrats, and major national media (my thanks to Breitbart News for identifying many of these):
- Russia Collusion Hoax
- Hunter Biden’s Laptop Is Russian Disinformation Hoax
- Biden Is Not Cognitively Impaired Hoax
- The Biden-Harris Administration Is Not Censoring Social Media Hoax
- Biden Is Not a Crook Hoax
- Project 2025 Hoax
- Hands Up, Don’t Shoot Hoax
- Jussie Smollett Hoax
- Covington KKK Kids Hoax
- Very Fine People Hoax
- Drinking Bleach Hoax
- Seven-Hour Gap Hoax
- Russian Bounties to Taliban Hoax
- Trump Trashes Troops Hoax
- Policemen Killed on January 6 Protest Hoax
- Rittenhouse Hoax
- Eating While Black Hoax
- Border Agents Whipping Illegals Hoax
- NASCAR Noose Hoax
- The Georgia Jim Crow 2.0 Hoax
- COVID Lab Leak Theory Is Racist Hoax
- Biden Will Never Ban Gas Stoves Hoax
- COVID Deaths are Overcounted Is a Conspiracy Theory Hoax
- Mass Graves of Native Children in Canada Hoax
- Hamas Hospital Hoax
- The Alfa Bank Hoax
Hiding Biden’s cognitive impairment took dozens, if not hundreds, of staff, family, elected officials, and reporters. That hoax was revealed only when replacing Biden became imperative to defeat Trump. In lockstep, the progressive media complex abandoned its cover-up of Biden’s impairment and called for his replacement.
Harris’s and Tim Walz’s campaign became the second act of this hoax. With few exceptions, they refuse to discuss their records or beliefs, and falsely claim to have changed both. They willfully misstate Trump’s positions and falsely attribute to him sponsorship of the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 (yet another hoax, as even USA Today and CNN have acknowledged).
A complicit media purports to fact check Trump, but seldom checks Harris or Walz. During the candidates’ debate last week, ABC’s moderators checked Trump in real time on six occasions (at least two of which were wrong), but never checked Harris, who repeatedly made false statements. Since then, a few mainstream media outlets have acknowledged some of Harris’s misstatements, though most give her the benefit of the doubt while blasting Trump for every imprecision or contentious assertion.
When the New Yorker’s fact checker, Susan Glasser, was caught pretending that Harris had never spoken in favor of taxpayer-funded gender reassignment surgery for illegal aliens, rather than correct her article, she claimed that she intended to question “the political advisability of bringing up these things in a national debate.”
As Harris runs from her record, the media often scolds Republicans for pointing that out, or for tying her to the Biden-Harris Administration. That went too far even for White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who explained that Harris has been a full partner in administration policies. And, last week, The New Republic reported that “much” of the new issues section on the Harris-Walz campaign website was lifted from Biden’s campaign website.
Though conservatives may win an occasional battle, there should be no illusions about the power and effectiveness of progressive deceptions, or the arc of recent history. After the Supreme Court’s ruling in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard College, and the strong consumer opposition to Bud Light’s woke capitalism, opponents of DEI won a few battles, but DEI is simply going underground with a name change. Some states have rolled back genital mutilation of children, men in girls’ sports, and CRT in schools, while other states and the Biden-Harris Administration have gone in the other direction.
More than 90 corporate leaders have endorsed Harris—who strongly supports DEI, reparations, increasing corporate taxes, taxing unearned income, censorship, and the full range of progressive policies. If she wins, the pendulum will swing strongly to progressive victories, as America moves ever-closer to an Orwellian dystopia.
Any conservative who believes that progressives have ethical limits is naïve. If conservatives have any hope of changing course, Republicans will need to win the presidency, control of both houses of Congress, gubernatorial elections, and state legislatures. To do so in November, and then to keep winning, conservatives must understand the ruthlessness and entrenched power of progressives, and must respond with equal or superior tactics. Marquess of Queensberry rules won’t do.

stock here: there are 4 or 5 of these pages. They pretend to be “caring” but they are all about promoting the lies. All these pages have effectively censored ME. Although others are “getting through” with FACT.
There were no warnings, remember-the island alarm was not turned on, no cell phone service, no tv warnings, water supply turned off, no military called out to help evacuate, police stopped evacuating vehicles from leaving-try that in any small town and see how many survive-Govenor and Maui Mayor hiding the real death count but Maui teachers know with all of the workers forced to sign an affidavit that they would not share what they saw or how many chared bodies they recovered including 2 boat captains, one recovering over 200 and another over 100 in the ocean themselves. All streets were closed off from families wanting to look for their families especially children who were sent home earlier in the day. No Press or family or owners of property were allowed in and all of Lahaina was fenced in with a black material for no viewing-no one was even allowed to look in from a higher viewpoint under threat of arrest
8/08/23 in Lāhainā was NOT a “natural” disaster, as it was genocidal arson. Although Occupied by them, Hawai’i is NOT located in or annexed to USA. Never was & never will be. High winds that day in Lāhainā was NOT due only to Hurricane Dora, as she was 500+ miles to the south of Hawai’
J Roselani Baricuatro-Kanīnau I thought it was odd too since she was far away. Actually 800 miles, (note the number . I saw her on my weather app few days before and because she was so far and super dry (there was very little rain associated associated the storm) and wondered why everyone was hyping it up. However what I learned is there was a low pressure zone south east and a highpressure zone (typicall that zone is always there) and the combo of the two zones sucked the winds from storm toward us while increasing the natural speed of the storm winds. My questions are how often to these types of storms happen and just doesn’t come close enough to us, did the storm create the low pressure zone (I didn’t track the storm before it got closer to us), and is there a chance this storm and it’s path was artificially generated.
Don’t forget blue umbrellas did not burn why, Dora had nothing to do with this that’s misinformation.
Dora was way down south, it was DEW CONTROLLED BY THE MILITARY
Wasn’t a natural fire
stock here: I was surprised at how many did not pick any country. This was reported to be 1 year ago.
I thought Ukraine would be high on the list
stock here: How do the normies keep on doing it. A totally captured liberal friend was planning a trip to Italy, so she thought getting a booster would be good. Then a week later she got COVID. Not a close enough friend to “end the friendship”, LOL almost, and inform her of the truth about the mRNA experiment.
Obviously main stream media is not covering the excess deaths and lack of fertility, decreasing life spans. Has no one noticed the vast increase in Zombie drivers? I am on guard everytime I drive, and pretty much see at least one Zombie in say, 10 miles. Did anyone notice their car insurance up double digits?
