Over the weekend, Hamas launched the most brutal attack on Israel in the nation’s history. Hundreds of Israelis were brutally tortured, kidnapped, and murdered. Yet some people still try to blame Israel—not the terrorists—for the evils perpetrated against innocent civilians. Dennis explains that the goal of Israel is peace while its enemies seek to exterminate the Jews and wipe Israel off the face of the earth. There is no moral equivalence.

Hi everybody, welcome to fireside chat number 310. Yes. All right
Well took 300 and something times for me to remember the number
This is mr. Tubbs and the chances of his hanging around for more than a minute are minimal
But at least I want you to meet him the successor to the late great auto
This is the fireside chat
My chance to talk to you about what is on my mind every week and then take your questions
And there he goes, all right. Anyway, you caught a glimpse of mr. Tubbs
that was
That was better than usual
Well, my friends, this is a very tough one for me and I I rarely say that
As you probably have figured out by now, it takes a great deal to get me down
I my expectations from life are not
What many peoples are so I sort of ride with disappointment, I know that it is inevitable
But the events of this past weekend, uh in the middle east
the barbarity
sadism cruelty
Has has reached a level that few have seen in our lifetime
And I want to talk to you about it
I don't know how many years ago it is, but at the very beginning of prager you
I made a video
One of the five minute videos that we have on explaining the middle east
What is the name of it actually that was it called the middle east?
I don't or is explaining the middle east. I'd like people to be able to see it
It it it's probably the most widely viewed video on the middle east in the world
The middle east problem, thank you
I mean tens of millions of views
And i'm very happy about that
for prager you
and especially
Because it helped clarify the issue again. It was five minutes
My theme was
that the middle east problem
is
one of the easiest to explain
And one of the toughest to solve
And basically it came down to my repeated theme in the five minutes one side
wants the other side dead
and I
make it
A matter of policy not to overstate not to exaggerate
But it sounds like oh, well, that's that's a little over the top dennis
But this weekend in case you thought that was over the top
Proved that that is not the case
Hamas and hezbollah and other
Extreme
Muslim elements who are quite powerful in the muslim world
Such as the entire iranian government the islamic republic of iran want
israel annihilated
not defeated
not subjugated
annihilated
It is the only call to genocide
And to the extermination of a state in the world, can you think of any other?
nation that is targeted
for extinction
There isn't any other
There are there are fights in this world. There are enemies
but the notion that you you should cease to exist and we will kill as many of
Your people as possible is unique
to
those muslims who want to destroy israel
And you saw it in practice
The targets were not the israeli army
the entire
target
was
jews in israel in their homes
At their concert 200 about 270 young people
were massacred
Who were attending a concert? I believe it was even a peace concert ironically
But it's that's not here or there. It was a concert
And they were massacred en masse
And you know why?
Because they were jews
And that's really important to understand
the the issue of the middle east
What we have here
And people don't want to hear this because people don't like to confront evil
I have a whole theory on that which I may have mentioned in a in past
fireside chats
People don't want to confront evil and that's why i've said all of my life evil is not dark
Evil is so bright people. Don't look at it
You can easily look into the dark, but it's impossible to look into extremely bright light. You cannot look at the sun
people don't look at evil they
It's too painful to do. So that's why I I remember in high school. I didn't understand why everybody didn't hate communism
It slaughtered more people than any doctrine
In in one given period of time 100 years than anything in the history of the world. Why didn't people hate it?
Because people don't confront
Rarely confront real evils
so what we have here is a desire to
Do what the nazis did?
In this case kill every jew
Uh in in israel exterminate the state and kill the jews
I
Asked the question in my video and I beg you to watch it. It's only five minutes. I asked the question
This should explain everything what would happen if israel said?
We will fight no longer. We are laying down our arms
And what would happen if the palestinian said we will fight no longer. We are laying down our arms
And I answered my own question at this point
