Can we talk about his reverence for Israel as well? That one video and his commentary on it (or maybe lack of) rubbed me the wrong way.
What's that video? I missed that one, yikes from the sounds of it.
it's the one where they visit the intel fab. I watched the first minute when he mentioned the location, and made it seem like the country paid him to visit?? so I just clicked away in disgust
I haven't seen the video and won't, but to be fair Israel is a country with a lot of history and interesting things. The government of Israel is just pretty shit, and the circumstances of it being created are equally shitty.
Israel has no history, only a criminal record
They are a nation with borders. Whether you agree with then or not doesn't change the fact they occupy historic ground. Try taking a plane to there and you'll find out they exist, whether you like them or not.
That doesn't mean they have a history
They occupy historic Palestinian ground
Yep. It is historic though. I don't get what some of you aren't getting. No matter who occupies it, it's had a long history (under many different groups for that matter). To act like the land isn't historic just because Israel occupies it is stupid. That's a large part of why Israel occupying it is an issue. They want it for themselves and no one else.
