When one group believes that the other should not exist, things can never go well
Never has Israel wanted the elimination of the Palestinians. Israel has always wanted the Palestinian people to have life and hope. Israel has bent over backwards to accord hope and rights to the Palestinians. Time and again, this goodwill has been exploited as the Palestinian leadership manipulate world sympathy and Palestinian frustration to make themselves rich. This corruption has reached fever pitch, with the utter hatred of the Palestinian leadership and their brainwashed legions for Israel and the Jews spilling over into filthy terrorism of unparalleled monstrosity, that the hope for a two-state solution has been abandoned for the farce it has always been.
The other side should also learn that the other side needs to be respected because they have also historically been there for a long time too. So it definitely goes both ways
There are three sides and they all truly want to see the other sides obliterated.
@Wolfey96 I don't remember hearing the equivalent to congress or senate hearings having long chants of death to Gaza, Iran, etc in Israels government or the American government...
One side has publicly let it be known, the other side is fighting back on someone that poked it...
@@HShangothis also goes both ways
Simon, this format is the future and it's incredible how your show totally demolishes all of the other forms of typical media with amazing coverage, details and analysis. I cannot imagine the crazy hours it must have took to produce such quality, informed videos at that rate. It's astonishing and I cannot wait to see how far you can this show in the future!
And he even does it on his holiday😅
this is different from the "other media"? this is simple US State Department propaganda Simon Whistler is for sale
😂
Yea second this - best show on CZcams or TV now
It was written by the US State Department.
Thank them for the propaganda
Man, I never thought Simon would be explaining the geopolitical news to me better than the big news media.when he’s come a long way from top 10 videos and I’m loving it. Well done!
The big news media has more content about every move an overrated singer and her boyfriend make than on the Middle East.
And I never thought it would be more interesting than everything else on the internet
You actually watch and expect anything other than propaganda from big news?
I say let's get back to the russians israel's got this they don't need help
your comment means that you expected big media to give you a comprehensive breakdown?
I absolutely love how this channel has grown from just old wars to current conflicts and older wars. Very unique.
This dude has like 10 different channels. He's only acting out the part of a neutral party. You have to listen close to his wording and choice of terms. Notice how he avoids calling a terrorist a terroist. Shia backed terrorist and sunni backed terrorist are both terrorist.
Unfortunately the world's been providing him with a lot of material to make content about lately.
@@The_Conqueeftador classy name by the way. Simon is not a pundit, what he and his staff of basement dwelling writers are providing facts as they are known. The fact that you are offended or triggered by the "proper terminology" of a group of militants is inconsequential to the facts.
@TheMonkeyworks105 No my issue with him started years ago when he first started making videos and spamming multiple different channel names with a new schtick for each channel. We got into a back and forth in which he lost and was wrong. He is a massive egotistical far leftist putting on fake neutral airs for the sake of a paycheck. P.S. my username changes every few years or so. You can have it when I'm done with it.
Ah, you know I didn't want to assume but now I see, you are an entitled rightwhing Incel. The name was a dead giveaway. If he triggered you so badly years ago, then why are you still watching and commenting on his stuff. seems like, in true incel fashion you need to draw attention to your paper thin skin and ego. @@The_Conqueeftador

To solve the problem from a Western perspective:
Send more troops, invade all Muslim land, pick and choose all leaders of the Muslim world, create 56 new countries in the Middle East!
@ignitionfrn2223 Hey, thanks man, very helpful!
As someone who has both Muslim and Jewish family, I can confirm the tension has definitely gotten worse.
As a Jew I’m doing my best to keep religion out of it. If this becomes a religious conflict it will never end.

You still haven’t argued why its biased though…
Thanks Simon and team for keeping us up to date with so many conflicts. It's overwhelming, but you guys manage to break it down like nobody else.
To the western eyes with his countless biases, yes.

@@momon4868 I am bias against nazis but that doesn't make me wrong. Nice try kid
@@momon4868he's mostly repeating mainstream, center-left western talking points, yeah. And focusing on "optics".
i didn't expect such a balance narrative on the Israel vs Hamas issue here, thank you for being our cable TV news alternative
Just want to correct your statement a little. You said it's "Israel vs Hamas". At this point it's Israel vs Palestine.
The 10,000 plus children that Israel have murdered weren't Hamas militants.
The stated goal of Israeli politicians and top military officials is to solve the Palestine problem once and for all. They want to weaken Palestine, displace and kill as many civilians as possible, and then give settlers carte blanche to take Palestinian land.
TV news is done,everybody(at least the people I know) are finding people like Simon who is not aligned ideologically or commercially to such an extent like the corrupt CNN,MSNBC,Fox and OAN
There was a heavy bias favoring Israel but yea relatively balanced
@@CLmssan I was thinking the opposite, so perhaps he really is balanced.
You got to be joking me!...
Ive been in the army for 9 years now and Ive deployed twice in those 9 years, one of those I just got back from in April of 2023. Im so fucking tired of this shit. I really am. Honestly our armed forces are pretty tired of this, its amazing how non sustainable this next conflict will be.
thanks for your service and your sacrifice. being in a deployment zone and being away from loved ones are taxing.
We have not choice but you fight the west. This is too far.
oh you missed the fun times. We were deploying twice in 4 years with 14-18 month tours. WITH stop loss!
The billionaires are not tired 😂
Which army? US Army? Not everyone is American, so it is good to be precise.
Thank you for being! As honest as you could be on this issue!.
I’m certainly a follower on most of your platforms…
On this respect.
Thanks for finally covering this topic, Simon. I know it's a tricky and sensitive issue, but very glad to see you speaking about it. Cheers

as an iranian I can say that yes all of this shit is indeed coming from our shitty government (I mean that's besides the fact that nearly every regional power in the middle east is pointing a fuck you sign towards eachother) well let's we all don't all die or get invaded right right?

Thank you Simon and Team
Thanks for the update and I hope things came down soon in the Middle East…
Informative, responsible and easy to digest. You've done a really good job covering these current events with a level of quality and professionalism that should make legacy media feel ashamed.
As an individual who has both worked and studied this region and some of its problems for the last decade, I incredibly appreciate your prospective and information that you incorporated into this video. You made some amazingly valid points and summarized the issues that exist and have existed for a while. Thank you for the video and educating the masses on the issues abroad.
I hope this gets a lot of Spotlight and hopefully it will clear up a lot of misconceptions, animosity and confusion
31:05 you also can’t ignore the fact that mobilization is immensely damaging to Israel’s economy as they have significant portion of their workforce not working. From an economic point of view they want to try and finish the war as fast as possible to minimize the economic damage mobilization will, has, and is causing.
Othodox religious Jews don't work and don't serve in the army, although some have volunteered to join. So entire burden is on liberal secular Jews. My guess is they will try to outsorce army force by drafting diaspora from over the world.
They're clearly more concered with future demographics then they are with economics
@@obtuseangler768as are most groups that take themselves seriously, honestly.
Economics are an important balance though.

Thank you so much Simon for your superb content. This is my favourite channel on CZcams 👍🏼
For the record israel has a unity government with both Benny Gantz and Bibi signing off on the war.
As a supporter of Israel I must say you did an axcellent job of remaining neutral. I think you're actually the first outwardly non-partisan presenter on this topic. It is much appreciated.
I find that the emotional sentiments of pro and anti israel voices alike causes similar amplitudes of anxiety.. but for different reasons. This was a nice batch of geopolitical ketamine in a market flooded with partisan crack cocaine ❤

The best new trick being used is to use "indie media" to use back door tactics to create and spread a narrative...
You don't think they didn't learn from indie media during the previous 3-4 years?
Must be nice to live in such a candy coated world you think this shill isn't shilling.
What did I hear?
Blame Iran.
This is a complicated fight with many many nuances over many many years.
Iran is only responsible in so far as much as they support grass roots self determination in the face of superior militaries.
"It's complicated" is a bs excuse to make this something people think they need explained to them...
If a country spends the last 75 years saying "no peace keepers we got this"....
And commits too many war crimes to accurately list in a thread on CZcams....
How are they victims?
How can they claim self defense?
But.... Iran... But Hezbollah.... but Hamas can be heard of everywhere....

@@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073 it's called a turbine
Israelis have been raping their women, killing them, and controlling their food and water for literal decades. People trapped in a cage will eventually snap, and voting them in was their last resort because their children didnt have even a chance of a future being born in Gaza

Good coverage. One recommendation. If you do not understand the long term goal of a group or state - look at their founding documents or declarations. People are truly honest when creating these. This works for every actor you described. And it's mostly not pretty from where I stand.
Best breakdown of current events ever!!
As an Israeli ( that also evacuated from his home in the north because of the war with Hezbullah) I have nothing but respect for you and your team for doing such a good research about such a complicated situation like here in the middle east. And of course your neutral presentation is amazing.
I can tell that I rely on the information in your videos more than I rely on our local news.
A bit weird though to call Hamas a resistance movement, having unclear goals and wanting freedom.
@@pontusvigur6720 didn't he clearly depict them as a terror group by claiming they have launched a massive terror attack into Israel on October the 7th?
@@pontusvigur6720 because they are by definition a resistance movement, stop propogandizing lol
@@DigitalShaolinThey are a resistance group using terroristic tactics. There’s nothing wrong with pointing that out, and it’s not propaganda of either side, it’s just the methods Hamas has chosen (which if you look at their written doctrine, honestly makes sense, as they do not want peace for Palestine, they want the total annihilation of Israel and Israelis)
Oh no you evacuated from the north, poor thing.. Hey atleast your family members arent being ruthlessly bombed and killed constantly with no air defense system, starving and dying from thirst, having no aid, fuel ect... nothing, being displaced and get to live in the freezing cold weather, losing limbs and having to treat them without anesthesia, humiliated beyond belief in every way possible from the baby inside of the womb to the eldest one, so yea poor you man we feel ur struggle
Simon, you probably have the only platform, on CZcams or otherwise, that presents the facts without any bias. Truly great job, you put so called ''journalists'' to shame.
One of your best videos yet
I love how informative and unbiased these videos are
Simon u r the goat 🙌🏻 thanks for all your videos
This is such a touchy subject
Balanced, insightful and thought provoking. Excellent video. Well done Simon and team.
concise appraisal of a worsening situation
Great. I woke up to this playing and now I have horrible anxiety..
Piecing this together is like rewatching Dark.
Even after this, yeah it's impossible to be "on top" of all the wars/conflicts/tensions going on in the Middle East!
Nonetheless, it's good to be more familiar with the groups, their nations/countries, their loyalties, ties, etc. after this video. Thanks!
Unfortunately it's not just the middle east. There are very disturbing events taking place across Africa, South America, North America, all around China and through Korea, pakistan, India, Myanmar, Russia. It's everywhere..
There are rumblings like we havn't seen in near 100 years (or just over depending on PoV)
There seems to be radicalism, nationalism, isolationism, expansionism spreading in all corners of the globe.
My own beliefs are that when too much is in the hands of too few, powerful messages that resonate with real frustrations and desire for change or fears, cause things to boil over until some balance is restored..
Hope things can settle down or ultimately be worth whatever cost is wroght. Gonna be a spicy few years and thats without climate or automation taking jobs... Such a mess.
Good stuff. Well, bad stuff delivered really well
Well done! 👏👏👏
Incredibly concise and well laid out content on a wildly confusing and complicated topic.
This channel has become my go-to for updates on world news.
Not to mention that buttery British baritone 🤌🏻
What a bunch of crap Simon said here. He should know that what is happening is NOT a genocide. He's adopting the typical Hamas narrative.
"An eye for an eye leaves everybody blind."
Crazy how In Islam, Judaism, and Christianity God teaches to be loving and forgiving yet the 3 groups are always trying to kill one another. Way to ignore your God's teachings.
you know its a good video when your simultaneously being called a zionist and a hamas supporter
lol good one
Wait... 25k dead in Gaza with 10k being children?
When we say "children" do we mean "minors", cuz then those number being so close together would make more sense, since Gaza apparently skews so young in population.
However, that does also bring up the uncomfortable topic of minors being combatants... Especially in a place that skews so young...
What else would "children" mean, other than minors? 😅
Ghaza has a very young population (i can't remember the median age, but it's pretty low compared to most other nations), so it would make sense that many children have been taken too, and not necessarily because they took up arms themselves
@@kristelbrok998 I only bring it up because "Israel massacring children" sounds a lot different from "Hamas herding child soldiers into Israel's crosshairs" even though it could be referring to the same thing.
Please continue with this background music, it fits perfect!
Been saying it since the end of 2022. The 2020's is going to be a rough decade.
Yhea let's hope the 30s sees things cool off for a good while. History tends to go in cycles as the generations that saw loads of conflict and war first hand die and stop having any control over events a new generation who have only heard the stories and don't understand the terror or horror that is the reality comes in to power and it all starts again. Occurs in other less serious situations as well.
It’s been like this forever. When has the world been at peace? When has the middle east been peaceful?
@@user-oi9bg6fx5t not totally at peace, I honestly don't think we'll ever have that but there's been periods when there's been far, far less conflict than there is at the moment and in most cases countries have tried to avoid conflict rather than jumping in with both feet. At many points there's only been conflict in a couple of places and fairly minor events at that. Some places are always on the edge and have the occasional event that is responded to but goes no further but it feels like at the moment it's those sort of places that are now escalating things far quicker than they would have. It usually depends on how confident and what place the major players, Iran, China, Russia, America, etc who fund and arm most of the groups are in and what they're current wants and needs are.
It's not the Roaring 20s this time, it's the Terrible 20s.
I was feeling this way in March of 2020 and hoping I was wrong. Here’s to 2030 🍻
Simon, with these such intense, emotional and most importantly unbelievably complex political issues, I commend you for not only remaining as unbiased as possible but also clear and concise enough to help make sense of this spiraling dumpster fire of violence and hate. There are so many competing narratives and emotionally driven arguments, this is truly the only channel I can expect to receive accurate and easy-to-understand information. It is a breath of fresh air to see your reporting on this.. Even if the reporting is pointing to impending escalations. I'm not even religious but, may god help us all.
Great overall assessment.
What i like about Simon and his behind the scenes crew is the amount of digging they do into each subject,, when they do a single subject in a single episode it's a thousand times more detailed than any other informative outlet,, another thing is that it's just information,, there are no personal opinions,, they also give info on possible future situation's but it's balanced out between the worst case scenario and the best case scenario,, with plenty of middle ground,, it's more like a documentary than anything else,, but it's really well made and thought out,, well done ladies and gents!!
The question I want an answer to in all this is, Why does Egypt not take in Palestinian refugees? The south of the Gaza Strip boarders with Egypt. It would be very easy for them to help, but they keep the boarder firmly locked.
The comment that "Palestinians are trapped in Gaza." often omits the important fact that Egypt keeps them trapped.
Officially they’re concerned about Hamas using that opportunity to infiltrate into Egypt. Unofficially, they probably don’t want to deal with housing and caring for refugees, especially when it’s unclear that those refugees could ever go back to Palestine, either out of fear or due to Israel blocking their return.
Cause no one likes the Palestinians. Iran pretend to like them but they are just their pawns.
Taking those refugees will destroy the Palestinian case. Palestinians have a right to that land and have a right have a country on the holy land just like Israel. Israel would never allow them back if Egypt took them in.
Hamas and the former Muslim Brotherhood that temporarily had control of Egypt following Mubarak's ousting were staunch allies. The current Egyptian government ran by the army that ousted the Muslim Brotherhood from power doesn't want a resurgence via their Hamas allies.
@nourrashid8739 "the Holy land" - Islam's claim to it being their holy land is dubious and limited. Jerusalem is mentioned about 500 times in the Jewish Torah and never in the Muslim Koran, but its THEIR holy land? A funny joke.
It's largely a strategic ploy. The land is hugely important to Jews and Christians, so naturally Muslims would claim it.
As for the Palestinian course. It makes sense, but doesn't change that Egypt is making that choice for the Palestinians, rather than opening their border and letting the Palestinains decide.
As for civilian casualties, many teenagers are active in Hamas militias and they too are counted as "child" victims. It is a fact that Palestinians let Hamas use hospitals and schools as military bases. No Islamic country is willing to take in Palestinian refugees. UNRWA, the branch of the U.N. dedicated to helping only Palestinian refugees, which Europe and the U.S. have funded with billions of dollars, was caught helping Hamas, which was in the public eye but nobody had the courage to point the finger against the Palestinians. A tragedy foretold for years that could have been avoided but the
Political correct got the better of it.
Honestly, a great breakdown. And I am someone who has spent years working in the region and studying these issues.
Thanks
I’m not a huge fan of Israel and the things they do but I also know Israel is the only nation in that area that doesn’t want my nation to die. So. Not much of a choice really.
Well, as an Israeli, I am not a massive fan of American policy either, but I nevertheless love the American people and the USA as a whole, and I can say the same applies in general to all of Israel.

Actually, as an Italian, I can safely say that "Axis" was used in Italy too, to describe the alliance with Nazi Germany.
I'm pretty sure that's because Mussolini coined "axis" for that alliance, it didn't have the 'evil' connotation because it was the first. Kind of like depending on your home country's power structure and history, "rebels" can be viewed romantically or fearfully.
Axis simply means a loose alliance generally made of more than 2 countries.

“It’s not a bomb yet, it’s a pressure cooker.” Good line, cause we know very well that a pressure cooker can be made into a bomb and fairly easily at that.

@@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073 Lol. Nice lazy way to disagree without expanation. Gives your reply absolutely no credibility.
Best way to get caught up.
This is how I get my news
Who does the research for this, is it Simon, regardless, it is excellent work delivered impeccably.
Oct 7th happened because Iran wanted to derail the peace deal between Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and UAE, and they’ve succeeded in doing so for the time being. If that deal went through Iran’s interests, power, and influence in the region would have been drastically diminished.
The October 7th attacks would have taken literal years of talks of funding of training of assembly etc. it wasn’t something Iran planned in a weekend. It happened because in the 1940s a rabble of Zionists invaded a land and displaced the people who had lived there for generations
fellas, you outdid yourselves. i stand in awe.
This is a tricky topic for a video essay but I think you navigated it well
Hope you had a restful vacation Simon.
This video gave me 0 hope for our future. I live in the warzone in the ME. Luckily my brother already ran away from here, but my parents won't budge. It's gonna be the annihilation of all of us. Gaza is doomed, Israel is self destructing, same as Syria and Iran. Hopefully I'll run away from here too. Living in constant fear this is our last day on Earth with nothing to do about it is the worst feeling. This video just made it more clear we're all going to die here by war soon.
Try to maintain hope, I’m so sorry
I don't think people appreciate the amount of diplomatic work that is going into this region right now by all major parties to keep the situation from blowing up into something larger.
Sure Biden circumventing Congress to provide further weaponry to Israel was real diplomatic and done to keep the peace in the region..
