And when it's not... well lol
Yes you do get news on here but it's also filtered by the Israelis. They have a hand at everything except TikTok which is why they're trying to shut TikTok down. They can filter a lot out here and I get shut down all the time in my comments removed
He's a tiny tad left but pretty much libertarian, which I like :) Trump 2024!!!
If you consider this clown a reliable source.
I would probably draw the same conclusions by watching mainstream news for a couple of hours... so watching this channel saves me a lot of time, and I like his delivery. Bias? Everybody is biased. I generally trust his bias.
Ah, my weekly dose of existential dread. Thanks, Simon
🤣 I laugh or else I'd cry.
Do you live there?
If yes -ok , thats bad
If not -grow a pair
"Spy round here!"
I can stop anytime I want, I just don't feel like it. 😏
you shouldnt be affected emotionally by anything, unless you live in the region, it will have no impact on you
As a software developer, thank you for the slight chuckle of "not a bug, it's a feature" during such a dire segment.
Must be a hidden feature then because even the documentation can't find it
Simon is the most eloquent voice to tell me the worst news I can possibly hear today
I disagree. Simon is biased as hell. I used to live in Minsk (Belarus). He said that votes had been rigged so badly that all people went to protest. And Putin send his forces and saved lukshenko rule. What an utter nonsense and lies. Yes in 2020 lukashenko won officiall votes polls said he got 80%.
My family who is living there , voted for him. 40+ people voted for him. I don't doubt that he gained 60% plus. Tho young people voted for "pro European" candidates. They went on protests. At some moment Russia offered help , tho Lukashenko refused. After a week protests got to zero.
My family is saying that life got better when Belarus formed a new alliance , coz now country is not paying taxes for gas , goods , etcetera. Gasoline , diesel cost now -40% , and gass heating is costing like -200%.
@@Rom2Serge it is. it's not biased it's freaking truth. Belarus is a clown show of a government and the real government is coming to take it back! you can mark my words!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Merry: *Screams existential dread*
@@kerryannegarnick1846 Huh? I never said genocide. You have some screws loose, friend.
It never ended
@@lllPlatinumlll Yes and no. The cold war ended with the Soviet Union dissolved. Our only tension is with Russia and not the other member states, which means our tension with Russia is a new cold war. The cold war was between two nations in which one nation no longer exists. Russia and the Soviet Union are very different entities, even if Vladmir Putin wishes to create a new Soviet Union.

Thanks Simon for doing these updates
Yes.
Getting all your information from one single source is not at all responsible.
I don’t care if it’s the best source possible…you at least need a few to bounce off each other.
Wow you must be easy to play with.
This is one of my primary sources of information, but you really shouldn't let it be the only one. As neutral as Simon tries to be, bias will always occur. It's doubtful he'd want you using only a single source for your news for that reason.

You're a legend!
Thank you
You can tell this is balanced because a third of the comments are calling Simon a zionist and another other third are saying he supports Hamas terrorists, lmao. I think he mostly laid out facts and the people watching did the interpreting themselves.
Pretty great if you ask me.
People don't like facts, they like reinforcing their beliefs. Otherwise they could understand that one could be, god forbid, wrong...
@OneSixSun you misspelled hamasbots.
He is missing his usual “regime” designation when discussing about autocratic country. Israel is by any mean possible, one hell of an autocratic nation
@@roxylius7550 do you not know what an autocratic state is? Israel isn't one in any way.
Relatively balanced, with little bias, and with just enough depth to keep people watching without boring them, whilst providing some detail, news agencies worldwide could learn a lot from this man...
Idk, the main reason the Houthis haven't been crushed by the West or the Saudis is probably that there's no appetite to inherit Yemen's 30-ish million people, a significant chunk of whom live in near-famine conditions. If another power collapses the Houthi government through an actually earnest military campaign instead of the pinprick strikes the US and Allies have done, then they'd have to either be ok with leaving the power vacuum for Iran to install Houthi 2.0, or otherwise stick around, fight ANOTHER counterinsurgency campaign, and do the whole "nation-building" thing that worked wonders in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Vietnam, etc etc etc.
The Houthis are relatively well-equipped compared to the forces that other powers are willing to commit to that fight currently, which is fairly limited. It's more politics than balance of power, tbh.
Edit: lol I'm loving the copium in the replies so much. Read my comment carefully, and really think about what I'm saying when I say that it's more about current-day politics than it is about the balance of military power.
Seems like something very little people had invested in now no one wants too. Yemen is now free to be sand.
Saudis lost with US help . Yemeni be like “ Nah I’d Win”
@@monkeynator1000 That's kind of what I'm saying. Neither the Saudis nor the West want to do a lengthy occupation, which is what they'd need to do get rid of the Houthis, temporarily or long term. So the efforts against then have been half-hearted at best.
@@Darkrunn saudis effort wasn’t half hearted they spent a lot of money and has US drones and generals giving them information. And yet they lost . Down playing houthies doesn’t do them justice
The Saudi’s did commit to Yemen but they are incompetent

13:37 '"Tactical" nuclear weapons' appears on screen... above an ICBM. 😂
Caught how similar calling it "drills" is to calling the initial troop build-up "exercises", too?
ICBM: 'bout to get real tactical in here.
Drills and exercises are pretty similar man if i do combat exercises thats usually a larger scale occurence as for drills is more focused on certain systems or types of defenses @Vaeldarg
@@AlienBigMac Not when the "exercises" go immediately into real invasion after they have all been put into position. Not right after an attempt at a false-flag attack as justification that was warned ahead of time to happen by the U.S. Not when those soldiers are packing suits to be worn in an expected military parade because it was expected to end so quickly from it being a surprise attack with overwhelming force.
@@Vaeldarg bah!

There were times when titles like these exist in mere fiction and the wildest speculations... and then there are times when they almost seem run of the mill, which in itself terrifying

Start moving production to Mexico, and South and Central America. Let China and Egypt deal with the Houthis when they start loosing money. Sooner production moves the better. Shorter shipping times, distances, and danger.
China looses money, trade, and power. Shipping continues and Europe is fine.
That's why they're starting brics
Wishful thinking 🤔
That would be great and all, but cartel exist.
Yea the Cartel is the major issue in the western hemisphere. And probably more powerful and wealthly than Islamist rebels. They are essentially capitalists without the rule of law. And the fighting an enemy closer to home is more destabilizing here.
Europe goes too easy on houthis
Hands down the best channel on yt!!!!
Extremely informative.
Russia must be looking at all this news coverage like, "how the hell is a terrorist organization garnering more global sympathy than us?" 😂
cause terrorist organization has a military budget of $50
I don't think the terrorist organization is garnering sympathy, but the victims of the response that has come from the terrorist group's actions. At least, I hope no one is sympathizing with terrorist groups...
@@SagasaurusThat's what these "Pro Palestine" groups cant wrap their mind around is there's a armed group within the Palestinian that has subjected the Palestinian people to violence they caused.
The IDF isn't garnering any sympathy, I am not sure what terrorist org. you are referring to.
@@mikendaba5050he must be talking about Islam
Hamas "acceptance" of ceasefire was their proposal, similar, but changed the status of hostages they would return from "alive" to "dead or alive" while firing from Rafah to Kerem Shalom crossing, thats why it was closed, bc they shelled it..
Why Rafah crossing was closed?, the Egyptians closed it, not Israel..
Honestly all the gaslighting for HAMAS is pathetic
so im not hauling water for anyone that defends hamas but let me say this.... simon and his writers try to be neutral, but as far as simon goes.... its pretty obvious he leans left from my perspective.... with that said, i can tell hes making an effort not to include political bias and i respect it.... with all that said, its my opinion that these emotional appeals he keeps making in regards to his coverage of Israel's revenge battle with hamas, are in regards to the humanitarian crisis. I dunno what makes him think that his videos have such a large impact.... (i mean, who knows, maybe they do? i have no clue...) but at times it almost seems like he is trying to get a message to those involved.... or more like he believes they WILL see it.... hence the emotional appeal for the civilians involved...
In other words, i dont think he is on hamas's side, i think he is simply doing what they want in regards to spreading the news about the misery of those on the ground. To be fair, Im pretty sure it was one of his videos right after the attack on israel that informed me about hamas's intended tactic of hiding behind civilians and letting women and children die on purpose solely for propaganda.
@@ez_company9325reminder
You can always be on no side. I am on the side of civilians, against both hamas and the Israeli gov
@@ez_company9325 Are you new to Simon Whistler channels? It isn't HIS words. They're not HIS emotional appeals. It's a script one of his writers has made that he's simply reading from. And keep in mind, just because someone is hiding behind human shields....doesn't mean you just slaughter the "shields"...
@ez_company9325 Agreed, am glad someone sees it, too. He's left, I get that, but pandering to Hamas and pretending Israel is the big, bad wolf definitely comes from his sponsors and those paying him. The world is supporting terrorism with compassion for Hamas. There is never, ever any compassion for Israel. And who started this on October 7th?
I love these videos!
Thanks!
i hope there will be some time stamp per topic
How would have thought that dealing with group that kidnap civilians of both factions, damage any humanitarian relief efforts and has not government structure will be hard to deal.
What humanitarian aid has Palestine damaged?
Also proof ? Or more hasbara
@@monkeynator1000 cant help the blind. Palistinians have been seen destroying aid trucks from egypt not hard to find on reddit. Hamas has been stealing aid to sell it.
If arab world wont help fix this then it only leave Isreal to fix this.
@monkeynator1000 there's literally dozens of reports of aid being stolen AND Hamas attacked a pier being built to import aid. Try again...
Who would have known that having political ministers referencing continuing a past attempt at ethnic cleansing would make others think that's what you're doing?

I and a lot of people here trust your non-biased and factually accurate reporting more than any mainstream news source. Thanks for doing what you do.
The steam roller comes to Rafah...
Forgot to mention that Hamas has already tried to mortar the aid pier lol
There's a reason Egypt has a bigger wall than Israel does.
Why? They're the ones who would be able to tap into the aid. They're the ones under siege. The IDF were the ones that have been air/drone striking aid convoys.

Tacticle nukes are indeed very interesting. On a "battlefield" as in a field with tanks far from a city is different than dropping one in a city. Let's just hope we don't find out.
I got a feeling we might and god knows what happens next when that Pandora’s box is open
@@Yoyoyo927 The Conspiracy is that they will drop 2-3 in an empty area for psychological effect
@nuuradinomar7786 My guess is it will happen away from any major populace to test the water. They know it's not likely to send the world into a full-blown lunch. But the problem then is that it sets a dangerous new president. One where other countries start messing with it, then limits get pushed. It would be bad imo
@nuuradinomar7786 And I would think it will only be one. If they do more, then they would most definitely risk retaliation
@@addicted2monster88 I agree, but supposedly tactical nukes are fractions of a kiloton. Let's hope we don't find out
I think it's pretty dishonest to use the Kerem Shalom Crossing closure to paint a picture of isolation. It had been open until being destroyed by rocket fire from Hamas.
Can't tell if this is intentionally misleading or poor journalism, but that is a exceptionally important point that was ignored.
It's a deliberate attempt to humanize Hamas, and dehumanize the Israelis.
As you mentioned, Hamas attacked the crossing to create this very situation. Hamas is willing to lose huge swath of its people for propagandist sake. It's pathetic
That's literally a lie

@@user-zb9lv3gh8smore specifically, it is the casualty numbers of women and children that were cut in half, not the total number. Meaning that less women and children were hurt, and more adult men, compared to what was reported previous. In short, Hamas lied and the UN knows
@@user-zb9lv3gh8s I think they are referring to bodies identified with 100% accuracy corelated with social security data, this was only released a few weeks ago. if you have any experience of warzones you will recognise this is par for the course, the true numbers will tend to be far in excess of this, but less than the original claimed estimates...

So if Israel has left the Rafah crossing under Hamas control all this time until now, can we assume all the hostages are now in Egypt?🇪🇬
Some of them probably are, yes. But the IDF has known that for a long time.
It's always had Israel checking what goes in and out, but it is possible due to tunnels used for smuggling

You kinda creep me out but because you do good at flowing i end up watching till the end.
I find it kinda weird that neighboring nations won’t allow refugees in. Curious on any opinions.
If the Palestinians enter they might not leave, and Isreal wanted that.
And most of the Arab nations from Egypt to Saudi didn’t want free mouths to feed and fulfilling Israel’s dreams of getting rid of the Palestinians.
That’s my guess
Yeah, half of them are terrorists. Nobody wants to let terrorists into their country.
Why?
I mean…they’re the ones that put the line on the map. They put in there for a reason.
At one time it was all one land.
People realized they had deferent beliefs and opinions, and needed to live in different states.
That’s how humanity works.
Not EVERYONE has the same beliefs and opinions. Thinking they do / should is naive and detached from humanity to begin with.
What’s so hard about letting people believe in what they wanna believe in?!?!
Why does EVERYONE have to have the same humanitarian opinion as you?
Egypt and Jordan are at the brink of economic collapse and have been for a while now.
Egypt is overpopulated to the point that they are desperately trying to build new cities which unfortunately is only further sinking them into debt.
Fortunately they have geopolitical advantages that the US needs so they have their economy artificially propped up.
An influx of another million people would likely push them over the edge.
In fact if Israel were to push more refugees into their country they would likely have no other option then to wage war.
There’s obviously more to it but that is the underlying reason. It’s a s*** show over there
It's not like any country can casually take in 1-2 million people, especially when the country in question is poor to begin with. It's also a risk of bringing in terrorists from Hamas.
You can't fight a war without human suffering.....after all our history why are people so surprised about that.

You NEED to turn down (or preferably off) the music in the background. Around the 10-11 minute mark it was so loud I couldn't even concentrate on what you were saying. I see comments like this in almost all the videos for this channel, and yet they still do nothing.
Honestly…I didn’t even notice the background music until you made your comment. I had to go back to 10-11 to see what you were talking about.
I would have liked MORE background music. I like it.
Maybe…just maybe…your subjective singular experiences aren’t the majority????
Aka: it’s not all about you.
@@sendthis9480 Well I agree that it's too loud. And I've seen other comments before say the same.
get a new pair of ears
Stop crying it's not loud at all I barely heard anything
@@kingofhearts3185
I mean…you’ve seen other comments because the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Have some objectivity.
A vocal minority is not a majority.
We got WWIII in-game footage before we get GTA VI
Nervously glancing at my dogs remembering there's no dogs allowed in the Fallout vaults 😭
"The Fact-Finding Mission (FFM) of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) concluded that there are no reasonable grounds to determine that toxic chemicals were used as a weapon in the reported incident in Al-Yarmouk, Syrian Arab Republic, on 22 October"
This is either a clown response or disinfo. That was in reference to an alleged attack in 2017 (many months after Trump had taken office) when Simon is clearly referring to the 2013 attacks for which there is abundant evidence.
Hamas has been raiding the aid pier and the aid trucks and for some reason palestinians overwhelmingly support them
Because Islam
Netanyahu looks more like the MAD character than Bush 2 ever did!
I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that the insurance companies were paying the houthies....
Couple of interesting points to note... the southern border of Gaza was already closed by Egypt, the IDF seizing the Gaza side only eliminates blind eyes turned away for Hamas smuggling.
The cease fire agreements hashed out thus far have NEVER included Israeli hostage release, which is literally the whole point of the escalation.
Dont forget Hamas was the voted in government body by Palestinians, and whether or not an idividual agrees or voted for them is irrelevant as it did not matter to Hamas if the Israelis they killed or took hostage voted for the current Israeli government.
War is hell, especially when your fighting force is content to hide behind innocent civilians.
Not only content, but Hamas have stated that their goal (or doctrine if you will) is to cause the most civilian deaths because they know that’s the best way they can put pressure on Israel.
The IOF killed kids that weren't alive when Hamas was elected during the march of return protests back in 2018. So by your logic, when Hamas then attacked on Oct 7th, it would be irrelevant who an Israeli individual voted for, they had it coming because of their government's actions. I don't really agree with you at all, but hey, an occupied people trying to break out of their open-air-prison is hell, especially when you host music festivals right outside the prison.
Also, Hamas did agree to release the hostages, but Israel backed out of the deal because they don't want a permanent ceasefire and instead want to still invade Rafah. It takes like 2 minutes to look up the text of the most recent proposal that Hamas agreed to dude. It's not actually about Hamas or the hostages, it's about the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.
@Laroccrj not by my logic, that is what hamas did. They came in slaughtered and captured indiscriminately of any perceptual reason beyond their Jewish ancestry, and you expect them to react to such with a compassionate soft hand? None of us were alive for the events and decisions that seeded this conflict. It just has been and is our reality, we all just have to choose which side we feel we can ultimately live beside in the future. I personally find Israel the better neighbor.
“War is hell” is your excuse for genocide? Don’t forget that Hamas only exists because Israel was invented shortly after WW2, with the native Palestinians living there either killed or forcible evicted from their homes.
Hamas didn’t come from thin air neither did Oct 7th, learn your history.
@@zombieninjapitbull3856 That is exactly the logic that you laid out. You said it was irrelevant if a Palestinian voted for Hamas because Hamas didn't care if the Israelis they killed on Oct 7th voted for the current Knesset. So by that logic, Hamas shouldn't have to care who an Israeli voted for, they should just be able to kill indiscriminately because the IOF killed over 40 children, who didn't vote for Hamas, back in 2018/19.
True, I wasn't alive during the Nakba, but it's not as complicated of a history as Zionists make it out to be. It's a pretty basic settler colonial project. If you took the time to research it, you'd probably not 'choose' the Zionist side. Instead you'd realize that there is just a right and wrong side in this situation. We study events in history such as the Holocaust because it's supposed to make you realize that the side running a concentration camp is the wrong side.
The slightest bit of research would make you realize that this is not about Jewish ancestry and instead just an occupied people's resistance. When someone makes that claim, they're either being disingenuous or they're just a fool. The 15 years leading up to Oct 7th saw 6 - 7,000 Palestinians killed vs 3 - 400 Israelis. Between that, illegal settlements, the occupation of Gaza, the apartheid system, you can't be serious to claim that the Hamas attacks are just fueled by a hatred of Jews.
Ultimately, who makes a better neighbor for us is not the concern, millions of people's lives are the concern.
