  1. This host is an IDIOT! They accused SERBIA if genocide on appx 8K deaths. To which the numbers are heavily disputed. Some say only 500 were “technically genocided”. The host needs to read some history before making statements.

  2. Since when are Ashkenazim Semites? We must not confuse a Judaized people and true Hebrews. European Jews do not have 1% of Hebrew blood. They are Caucasian German Slavic but not Semitic. It is their DNA that speaks. Netanyahu is only a polski. He is not is not Hebrew the English are not Semites because Jesus came from the Middle East 😉 that would be too easy everyone can call themselves Semites since the religions practiced in Europe are Semitic in origin

  3. Nobody cares about anyone. Muslims don't care about Palestinians, and it is visible clearly as no one accepted them, instead shutting their borders. Before blaming others, first muslims must be blamed for not helping them and just shouting and abusing others and not doing anything that directly help Palestinians.

  4. Let us not forget that the Palestinians had nothing to do with the holocaust in WW2… These are fabricated by the Israeli education system to indoctrinated their youth for a military purpose!

  5. Israelis “colonizers” Muslims and Arabs indigenous. Boy oh boy they clearly haven’t read history and the Ottoman Caliphate and how they practiced dhimmi on jews and Christians. So silly how the average woke person barely knows their history. That being said I do agree ppl have the right to criticize Israeli administration but don’t come out here saying Israeli Jews are colonizers lmao

  6. Truthfully the land doesn’t belong to either people. They’ve just been occupying it. Bassem is a product of a people living on stolen land. He can’t say too much.

  7. Jeremy Corbyn was labelled a antisemite by the Right. The way he was mocked for being against Israeli apartheid regime on Palestinians was shameful and shows the state of politics in the UK.

  8. looks like the world either believes the "cgi" videos, or maybe no one wants the palestinians, thay only bring chaos where-ever they are.
    even jordan and egypt know too well to close their borders.

  9. “It's a Trick, We Always Use It.” Calling people “anti-Semitic” for criticizing Israel.
    Shulamit Aloni Former Israeli Minister..
    It's the standard tactic of calling someone "anti-Semitic" for criticizing Israel. The smear is used to sabotage anyone who speaks out against the U.S. government policy of supporting immoral and illegal Israeli policies which violate basic human rights.

  10. No one ever called him an anti semite for asking for proof of a hamas base. He makes up a phony story and then pretends like anti semitism doesn’t exist. That’s what makes him an anti semite. Nothing to do with asking for proof of a military base.

  11. The Jews keep milking the Holicaust and their victimization to the point that nobody gives a damn anymore and btw this guy is right about everything, Jews hate themselves!!!
