Hey guys, Aldo here with PragerU.
Right now I'm in D.C.
Behind me there is an anti-Israel, pro-Hamas, pro-Gaza protest outside the White House.
Now, this is all unfolding.
There have been a lot of anti-Israel protests going on since Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived
in the United States.
We have American flags being burned at these protests, and a couple of them have gotten
pretty violent.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Oh, s**t!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
It's Aldo Badazzoni.
Who are you with?
Uh, PragerU is our channel.
Oh, no.
No?
It's Zionist propaganda.
Sorry, we won't talk to you guys.
I'm not talking to you.
PragerU bias.
PragerU is a scraping media!
I'm Catholic.
You are committing a genocide.
Your people are, by starving-
Wait, whose people?
Israel!
PragerU, bro!
Israel!
PragerU!
They are committing a genocide against the Palestinian people by starvation, stamping
out their culture, their religion.
They are giving them no medicine, where people and children are dying from lack of medicine.
You killed four members of my family.
I killed four members of your family.
I didn't kill, I protect.
Are you against Hamas?
It conducted and killed over 1,200 civilians, raped women.
Are you against Hamas?
Yes or no?
Are you?
Yes or no?
Do you think Israel is an apartheid state?
100% it's an apartheid state.
It's obvious.
All the evidence is there.
Look at the wall that they built.
Look at how they treat the Palestinians.
Look at how they arrest them and detain them.
The other thing about apartheid state is that people have fewer rights than other citizens.
Do you believe that Arabs have fewer rights than other Israeli citizens?
Everyone should have the same rights.
Are you contesting that people in Israel don't all have the same rights?
I said everyone has the same rights.
What do you not understand?
Everyone in Israel does have the same rights.
With the Israelis having apartheid state against the Palestinians, clearly they don't believe that.
They do.
We're here trying to free Palestine from Hamas terrorist organization that I got sprayed water at.
I was attacked by a man over here about to come and punch me.
Had to be held back by police.
I hope protests can actually be peaceful
and we can come to a day where the Palestinian people have a leadership not Hamas
that actually wants peace with Israel.
How does it make you feel when you see the American flag being burned at these protests?
It's horrible. It's an embarrassment.
You did not see any Israelis burning the American flag.
It happened at Union Station where who was there? The Palestinians.
The Palestinians took down the flags, burned them.
You see Jews, Israelis thanking these cops for protecting us.
Raising the flag, being proud of it.
You don't see any Israeli doing that to the American flag.
Who was throwing water bottles at the cops yesterday?
There was a video that went around when cops were being pushed by Palestinians, not by Jews.
You will never see violence coming from us here. Never.
You see what's going on in Europe.
There are cities full. I have nothing against Arabs.
I have many Arab friends.
But you see the extremism taking over.
I saw them burning the American flags.
I also witnessed my flag getting shoved to the sewer.
I went to the sewer where they shoved it into and I actually salvaged it.
But unacceptable in any country.
If you don't support your country, get the hell out of there.
Don't live there.
Because you're living in the most democratic country in the world
which allows you to freely express your opinions
and you go specifically against your country.
It's absurd.
