Bassem Youssef says it’s “stupid” people are branded antisemitic for criticising Israel’s war in Gaza. He adds that the Israeli regime is using the 'suffering of Jews as a justification' for their offensive in Gaza.

Bassem is literally talking about how someone was getting his home taken by settlers and how the host was more interested in asking whether they condemn Hamas and this guy does THE SAME THING!!! 🤦♂ At this point it's like a cult!

That's disgusting
They still do nothing but make excuses for Hamas. It’s gross.

Bassem rightly criticized the policies, Morsi was doing a power grab and it backfired when his opponents used it as an excuse.
I love this guy. He is so more intelligent than the interviewer. He owned him completely in a gentle way without shouting, just arguing in a convincing way. Thank you Bassem.

It's not that he is more intelligent or that the interviewer didn't do good questions. It's that at this point it doesn't matter. Those questions have been answered and repeated for decades. There.are no other questions to make nor new answers to provide. It doesn't change a thing. The top continues to manipulate and people keep choosing sides as if there is a side to pick.
No he’s not. He’s a comedian. and he’s using logical fallacies to fool idiots like you.
Nelson Mandela was an "enemy" of the state in S Africa and the ANC was a terrorist organisation. Now we know he was a selfless hero, fighting for the liberation of oppressed people in S Africa.
If you visit S Africa now (bet you haven't) and visit the townships, people are saying "Bring back the White Man!"

Imagine breaking childrens arms for throwing stones
These are the chosen evil
But your the victims ...right ?
Imagine a stone flying into a car you wife drives. The car's speed is 80kmh. Your kids on the back seat.
Of course the "children" throwing those stones (because their parents told them it's ok to do so) are the victims.
They are the victims of bad parenting.
By the way, what you said about breaking hands is a blatant lie.
They throw stones at Isrealy tanks,even if a child threw a stone at my car i certainly would not break their arm.@curaprox1334

Ed Vaizey is Jewish , when Bassem pushed back on the question/check point it was brilliant to see Ed’s discomfort. Let me quickly change the conversation and bring Mo Salah into the discussion
Journalists asks these questions almost as though the reply was supposed to be the deciding vote. If the interviewee is in no position to affect anybody's rights, there's no point asking the question.
Right, every time bassem try to push him to the corner he just run . As it is no we didnot come to talk about The suffering of the Palestinians (as it is an old story)
, we came to talk about October 7 th , as it is a something different
Sounds like you love to see Jewish people uncomfortable
@lenoteama471 But it is different. If you are an Israeli, you are the chosen people. You're better than anyone else. Those Jews that lived in Palestine aren't real Jews. Gentiles are 2nd class citizens
If Ed Vaizey rea lly is Jewish he should have asked Bassem where the Egyptian Jews are? Between 1948 and 1967 Egypt robbed and ethnically cleansed Egypt of their 85,000 Egyptian Jews.
Just as well the interviewee carried this interview as the interviewer was completely unprepared. 😮
The interviewer is aware of what is going on, but he is not concerned with the truth or justice, only with making ISR look good and the people of GZA look bad.
@@carlomariaromano4320 All the interviewer managed to do was look "out of touch with the real world and safe in his own radio bubble." Disappointing. +1

The sneaky "Piersy Morganey" question of " do you condemn Hamas?" has the gift of finding its way in every progandist pro- zionist interview.....
for some reason Hamas lovers have a problem with this question
Nope we don’t have a problem with that question. We just refuse to glorify your question with an answer. Because it hurts your feeling if we don’t answer.
Just like Israelis have a problem with answering the question . Do you support genocide ?
@@dondiegodeazambuja9410 answers to a question can glorify?
Nah, I think you have a problem with the question.
"Do you codemn Hamas" is not just a "guestion" but a propaganda rethorical question, which admits only one answer. As Bassam perfectly said "a moral checkpoint". Which makes this "question" a sad joke. As Gestapo would ask "you don't like our Führer?" Do you get it?
The host's stupidity was really exposed here

The Guest was much more stronger actually.
@@motivationultra01 exactly, that's the dude's point xD
Bassem is levels above these simple journalists
I love this man in not a sexual way. His brain, his articulation and ability to challenge western media idiots. He doesn’t beat around the bush. I never tire of hearing his speak. Bravo Bassem.
When someone who is worlds more intelligent debates with an interviewer. It's just sad. 😅
Bassem is a very good comic and the fact that he exposes the Israeli government makes him lovable
For the record, Hamas did attempt to approach Israel more diplomatically for a short period. The West simply did not respond as their peaceful protests were shot down (literally) and people murdered. This is the unfortunate side that many people did not bear witness of, and many simply assumed this was a conflict with legitimate arguments on both sides.
To put it bluntly, the Palestinians in Gaza were simply born in captivity, raised in captivity and expected to die in captivity. They are treated not as humans, but as farm animals awaiting slaughter.
I was absolutely shocked that I never knew of it for 20 years even with multiple international organizations, hundreds of academic experts and humanitarian groups constantly voicing it out.
Immidiately stopped conversation after not getting wanted answer😅
He’s actually a big celebrity everywhere, and for excellent reasons. Best of human kind!
The question - most perfected by Piers Morgan - is actually a conversational check point to stymie the Palestinian like the numerous physical checkpoints Israel has imposed of West Bank.
That's only because you cannot ask an Israeli guest if he supports genocide. That's "antisemitic"....
Those check points were imposed as a response to terrorism. Prior to the first intifiadah Palestinians moved pretty freely in all of Israel, the west bank, and Gaza. Israelis also went to Palestinian territories. In general, and the point many miss, the restrictions on Palestinians were put in place in response to attacks on Israelis. Not arbitrarily. The Palestinians initiate violence and then use Israel's response to attack it. There is a lot more to the story here than the superficial treatment this gets by people who buy into a narrative.
@@guythetechguy Of course palestinians were gonna attack israelis. They were living as effectively 3rd class citizens. A state that dominates their entire lives, yet does not represent them or give them the right to vote. Israel wont give Palestinians citizenship or give them an independent state that is sovereign and viable. Its fully the oppressor's fault
@@guythetechguy You are peddling that standard myth that Palestinian violence pops out a vacuum. The clock didn't start the first intifada any more than it started Oct 7th.
@@nickthepostpunk5766 You are peddling a myth. Palestinian violence happened before 1948, before 1900... Arab violence *always* came first and *always* barbaric and indiscriminate. Oslo peace process -> suicide bombings. That's Palestinians for you. They gotta change something.

Thanks bassem for standing with justice and prosperity
He always gave me a calm Robin Williams vibe
Great comparison. Stewart is a liberal sellout.
Much love to you Bassem 🙏💖
Hateful M us lim
It is always a delight to listen to this man even if he repeats himself in his interviews.
It's actually incredibly hard not to repeat things in interviews, when you give MANY interviews in a short period of time and in them you're asked to talk about the same things. People repeat themselves in conversation all the time.
it's becasue he is asked the same questions
Brilliant interview, Bassem is exactly right in what he is saying. Interviews with Israel supporters don't begin with questioning them whether or not they support the Israeli states' crimes. Although to be fair that would take too long. We need a Freehold Palestine movement to protect Palestinians from having their homes stolen off them.
Vaisey is no match for Bassem's quick wit. Bassem is a man for peace .
Love this guy, very smart
Wow Bassem!! You are brilliant as all ways. Thank you for speaking up!! Wonderful wonderful wonderful!!
The interviewer is not on Bassem's level. He interrupts him before he can make his point, potentially because he can't argue with it.
Bassem Youssef is still healing hearts as a comedian
Bassem articulates so well what he wants to say. It is so true that there is an expectation of saying that Israel has the right to exist and to condemn Hamas, yet it is taboo to condemn Israel for its crimes and nobody expects that you should acknowledge the Palestinians' right to exist, defend themselves, and have their own country.
And their own Army, Navy, Air force etc, so they're not lambs to the slaughter
That's only because folks do not understand (or agree) that occupied have the international right to defend itself and fight by any means necessary to fight its occupiers
@@charlesray9674 Because it's not a thing? There's no such right "to fight an occupier". Most of this planet is "occupied" one way or another. Israel's right to exist stems from the fact that it does exist as a recognized country. The Palestinians that live in Israel are part of that country. The Palestinians that live in the west bank used to be part of Jordan. The Palestinians that live in Gaza used to be part of Egypt. They don't have a "right" to their own country more than any random group of people that wants to have a "right" to their own country. I understand they really want it, but just wanting does not equal "right". If Palestinians want a country they need to negotiate that with Israel. Without Israel's consent they'll never have a country.
@guythetechguy Obviously, international law isn't your strong suit. Israel doesn't have the right to give the Palestinians a country nor does the Palestinians need their approval. If someone tells me that I can only have a country if you are allowed to dictate my every whim, you must be insane. I will admit that my knowledge of the history is not good.
But that was I was taught the the zionist version of history....
@@charlesray9674Don't want to burst your bubble but if you can't enforce the law, any law, you're nothing. Certainly not a country.
Who else is here to watch Bassem Yousef? The man, the GOAT
Bassem is saying the truth in such a comprehensive clear way.
Basset is brilliant! What a cretinous interviewer, not listening, talking over Bassem in his haste to ask the checkpoint questions….
What does the tired question mean - does Israel have a right to exist? Did the regime of apartheid South Africa have the right to exist? Of course not. The solution to the gross injustice was to have a system of one person one vote, equal human rights for all. Same applies for Israel
Brilliant Bassem ... Thank you and bless you
Bass, you have a brilliant mind but most of all the heart in the right place. Thanks you for being around. you are an inspiration
I started hallucinating with these check-point kind of questions
thank you bassem
Bassem Youssef telling it as it is. Surprised to see him on here!
The pro Israel leopards are changing their spots faster than the Scottish weather changes its mind
He's been on before I think
He's never been afraid to tell it how it is. No matter how unpalatable it might seem at first, he's right. No one is denying what the Nazis did was anything other than abhorrent. But for the Israeli government to justify their disproportionate response and senseless killings by invoking the Holocaust is shameful.
He is forming extremist oposition versus extremist position. We need more centrists if we want to proceed and find solutions
actually Bassem lies a lot but his interviewers are usually too ignorant to have a chance. For example he claimed in another inerview that no Israeli Arab city has a hospital. there are two. and normally Arab cities are small and he ignores that major cities like Ashdod also do not have hospitals.
You noticed how the host defused the tension by switching to soccer. He knew that he had disturbed a hornets nest that he regretted.
It’s not about the Palestinians it’s about Israel. People only care when Israel is involved speaks volumes…
Thank you DR. Bassam your wisdom is indeed special.
Bassem Youssef is a man of truth.
At 17.40 the interviewer wishes that he stayed home that day.😂😂

Why didn't Egypt and Jorden establish a Palestinian state in 1950? Was the occupation legal then?
They wanted nothing to do with the trouble making and terrorism the Palestinians are known for. Lebanon allowed Palestinian refugees ,who were joined with a muslim terror group within Lebanon, and by the 1980s, Catholics and Christians were dying every day, and churches were bombed. Right now, there are young women of those religions being kidnapped to be sold for 2nd wives to muslim men. 2000 worshippers are left , but let's not forget Lebanon was the only M.E. state Christians could be freely accepted (I think it was about how much the churches gave to the government). Well, not anymore.
Their goal was to stand against the zinist project that was interested in building a state from the euphrates to the eucrates (according to Ben gurion and hertzl)..

They lived very happily in their countries for thousands of years until the invasion of Palestine stirred up sectarian hate. What’s your point?

The only people sick of this question are the Pro-Hamas crowd. The rest of us love this question because it instantly tells us who we're are dealing with. People that justify indiscriminate barbaric violence towards children, woman, elderly, civilians, or people that hold some moral values. Hamas is like ISIS or Al-Qaeda. I've heard Bassem say "ofcourse I condemn Hamas" but he always says it in a tone where you can't quite tell if he's sincere or not. Oct 7th has really challenged the people that support Palestinians due to the sheer brutality and barbarism displayed and they're trying really hard to somehow work through this cognitive dissonance of how can we support that cause given those behaviours. Otoh, Israel's war on Gaza is a pretty standard affair seen in any conflict over the last 100 years, battle on Mosul, Falugah, Mariupol, Bakhmut... Any war in a dense defended urban setup with a lot of civilians around. Required some extreme mental gymnastics. You can see the denying Oct 7th happened. Or saying nonsense how Gaza was occupied (was not). Just trying so hard to somehow justify the unjustifiable and now not condemn it.
