Guest bio: Norman Finkelstein and Benny Morris are historians. Mouin Rabbani is a Middle East analyst. Steven Bonnell (aka Destiny) is a political livestreamer.
youre sick for monetizing this type of content while innocent people and children are being starved and killed in Palestine. there is no debate and youre beyond wrong for platforming this as such.
Enough of this idi0t in your show bro.
@@ViCT0RiA6 One man's death is another man's bread. That is how the world works since the day it all started. You cannot shame one for practicing what is hardcoded in their DNA. That includes you too, young lady.
Isn't allowing people to damn themselves on a public platform essentially a net positive? Idk why you'd be salty that Lex takes some $ home as a result of his making it available.
Im supposed to take a college dropout seriously? Who uses wikipedia as a source? Who debates on discord ? And Interrupts? Gtfo theres 3 scholars and 1 idiot.
The fact destiny has a seat at the table is absolutely hysterical
viewers only
the fact that anybody gives this idiot any platform is unbelieveable.
Why? What specifically did he present that was incorrect? Respected Benny Morris agreed with him numerous times through out.
He was way better than Norm. I don’t know if Norm should have a seat at any table.
@@HostileTakeover555I would give OP the benefit of the doubt here, I think it's funny to see D-man who didn't know jack about this topic 5 months ago being so quick on his feet to dunk on the supposed most fampus pro palestine academic currently.
Hamas stole a piece of Destiny's beard, that's a disgrace
Lmao
KHAMAS
His beard always looks so bad even without that scuff mark. It makes him look punchable with that soy beard.
I bet you're like norm resorting to ad hominems and insults as a means of Winning a debate 😂
Lmmmaaoooooo
Historian vs Wikipedia's finest redditor
Please don't call fecalstain a redditor.
Finkelstein isn’t a historian lmfao
@@jonathonchabluk5070Raul Hilberg the founder of Holocaust studies disagrees
@@johnvermassen I don’t care about what somebody else thinks. Finkelstein is a sociology major, not a history one.
@@johnvermassen Neat. I guess he's wrong, too, then. Would you also assume the world is flat if he said so?
The IDF literally bragged on twitter saying “we know where every bullet landed.”
This is the infuriating part. These Zionist defenders hear them bragging like we do but love playing dumb. They're not there in good faith. The goal is to make people doubt the facts and truth.
Idf: There are no accidents
Mr Borelli: That's just an accident!
Destiny sounds like one of those kids defending Iraq war crimes bragging criminal courts exist and our military would never do any war crimes.
Citation needed
We just making stuff up now??? Or just not giving context to fit your narrative??? Hamas are straight up actual terrorist. I guarantee you are a silly kid who has no real consistency when it comes to Israel. What does equal force look like??? Who broke the cease fire on October 7th??? You are incredibly simple minded hahaha. What is the appropriate response for Israel to have to October 7th??
@@tempacc9589 There are clips with millions of views of Destiny saying that the IDF commits war crimes. In the debate, he specifically objected to the charge of genocide, and brought a strong argument along with him. I suggest you actually watch the debate instead of mindlessly repeating Hasan's reaction videos. Destiny cleared Finkelstein, who came off as a petulant child. Even Finkelstein's debate partner (who was actually quite good, probably the strongest debater of the four) was embarrassed.
You are about to be insulted when they say to you, “With all due respect….”
Glad I read your comment before I wrote mine earlier because I was literally going to write the same exact thing!
Nice to see you here Lead. It has been a while. I was one of your first subs. Hope you are well.
Lead are you going on anytime soon?
It’s a really great phrase because for half a second the person thinks they’re being respected until they realize the amount of respect due is none.
But he lost…
Everytime he says “Mr Borelli” I die laughing
At 3:31 it became "Mr Morelli", it only has 3 letters left from the original name 😂
Truly the behaviour you expect from a respected historian.
Finkelstein is such a charlatan. Whatever you think about the conflict, it exposes your intellect (or laziness) if you are someone who thinks Finkelstein is a good faith actor. END OF STORY. There are plenty of people who make the case for supporting Palestinian causes who don't act in bad faith like Finkelstein. He used every dirty tactic in the book. If you don't understand what I'm referring to then learn more history, do more research and then do a better job of sifting through the ad hominin and false dilemma arguments that Finkelstein crams (like f'ing crazy) into his narratives.
Because his student named him boring racist.
Lol yeh classic trolling from Norm. Good on Destiny for handling it so well.
The fact that Destiny irritated Norman Finkelstein enough to insult him but not rabbi Shmuley is pretty wild
Rabbi schmuly is a frauder and knows it. Destiny is just a pseudo intellectual
Look at his face I'd bw irritated too
It’s because destiny is idiotically arrogant. It’s infuriating when someone doesn’t realise just how ill equipped they are.
It's cos he was 1v1 with Shmuley - if you speak slow like Finky 1v1 it can work to your advantage; however, speak slow in a team debate (esp. vs someone like Destiny) & you start to feel like you're letting the side down by being too slow!
Finkelstein was already irritated with Destiny. Destiny didn't show up at their original debate, if I recall correctly, and was dismissive of Finkelstein's time.
The IDF's body count is tied with Destiny's wife at 30 thousand since October 7th.
YOOOOOOOO 🎉
😂😂😂😂

This is fiiiiiiiiiiire bro
ouch
Pretty unfair that Mr Finkle had to debate Mr Bonell, Borelli, and Bonelli all at the same time
And MORELLI

If you play this at 1.25x speed, Finklestein's tempo is normalized, but Destiny becomes imperceptible. If you play it at .75x speed, Destiny's tempo is normalized but Finklestein's audio sounds like blue whale vocalizations.
What a great summary
Finklestein is so majestic.
Destiny trying to educate a man who spent entire life academically studying the issue😂😂😂😂
Finkle was tbh poor in this debate.
@@Makonator007even a poor Norman walks over the childish destiny
@@Makonator007To anyone who knows nothing Finkle might look poor because Destiny screams loads of lies with enough confidence like a 13 year old child. Go google the four kids killed on the beach. Destiny was 100% lying and Norm was completely right.
@tempacc9589 when you answer on certain questions that are not true, usually it's "that's a lie", or you just tell what the truth is...norm on lots of them just go "don't show ur ignorance", without offering counter points...not all but on a lot of them....even lex stopped him from quoting Benny's line...
Morris, who is the most prominent historian in this topic, agrees with Destiny on everything, so keep coping😂
Destiny has a Phd in Wikipedia knowledge.
Just as bad as Finkelstein's PhD in Ad Hominems.

3:40 Destiny quotes the UN saying "While the vast majority of protesters acted in a peaceful manner.."
4:18 Destiny saying how Norm referred to the march as "mostly peaceful" as if it's false and ridiculous.
He accuses Norm of selectively reading/acknowledging UN statements and then demonstrates straight after what selective reading looks like.
thank you.
This happened the entire debate. Destiny was consistently missing the precision of what was being said, or missing the entire point.
Bro Destiny himself said he is pro genocjde against Palestinian (way before oct 7), obviously he will have bias to be pro isrsel
Destiny is a defective Uzi spraying everywhere not hitting anything. Finkelstein is a 380mm devastating cannon.
People making excuses for murdering children. SMH.

Destiny’s position in this debate was a coked-up rendition of Ben Shapiro’s “I don’t care about civilian casualties” middle school article
Neither does Finkelstein. He is selectively sanctimonious.
Destiny thought his "war is hell" argument was the ultimate checkmate
Its definitely adderall or vyvanse, no coke on earth can make you talk that fast while simultaneously saying not a god damn thing.
He probably isn't even close to the amount of books katt williams has read.

So don’t start wars and use them as shields. And also don’t use teenage soldiers and call them children.

@@spiderqueen601Israel started the war decades ago
Start a war? Israel kills a few thousand palestinians every 3 or 4 years... they call it "mowing the grass" but palestinian lives mean so much less to you that all those times dont count. Unsurprising your view is shared by zionists and nobody else.
“Then let me educate you?” Destiny a UA-cam gamer, has the audacity to say that to PROFESSOR Finkelstein?
Finklestein who couldn’t remember dolus specialis even though he claimed to have read that document 3 times? The same guy that kept cutting off the person reading from the actual document. The guy who kept trying to explain to an author what that author meant in his own book? The one the moderator had to cut off twice in the debate?
@@AjaxDGonzo In all fairness, Norm has been studying this for 40 years. His memory isn't as good as it once was.
@@Lysergicide25 well and assuming all of the scholars have read 10,000 books then to average it that’s at least 3,333 for Norm, plus rereading books too. His brain must be fried, but it doesn’t compare to Katt Williams

absolutely brilliant comedy, after repeated minutes of enough shouting over each other to give one tinnitus, Lex reveals to us that he is actually the moderator that is moderating a moderated debate.
Funniest part hands down “this is not hilarious”
HAHAHA
It is not easy to moderate while people shout at each other 😂.
Lex, come to group therapy, and you know what l mean. Only jocking 😂.
In group therapy, setting anything can happen, but a very important task of a group leader - therapist - is to present, apply, and implement the rules of a group. Otherwise , chaos will spread.
P.S. Have you seen the meme ?
😂😅😅
the funny part is that Lex is pro-israel himself 🤡
He said in beginning of debate he was going to let it roll because emotions of this debate "speaks volumes" or something like that lol
"Mr. Borelli, you are such a fantastic moron, its terrifying" 🤣

SO BRILLIANT. 😂
Norms comedic timing is impeccable. I’m not saying the topic is funny, but seriously, the guy has comedic talent
Why is Destiny even debating with University Professors? 😂😂😂
Finklestein was denied tenure because of his incompetence. What specifically did he say that was incorrect? Morris who Finklestein lauds in this clip complements him throughout.
What is this dumb gatekeeping just look at what they actually said
@@HostileTakeover555 He wasn't denied tenure for "incompetence." You're either an idiot or you just think we are.
lol, what kind of dimwit still respects university ranks?
@@SerenaLi-dl9bl hard to do that when they keep talking over each other. At least the universtiy professors have proper debate etiquette. Destiny appear to care about winning, not the truth, from what I've seen in this clip.
Finkelstien says: “overwhelming non violent”. Destiny: YoUrE LYING then he reads: “while the vast majority….”Then he continues to cry about it like he is not wrong. This guy is suffering from cognitive dissonance, he is not well versed on the issue and he super qualifies all his statements to weasel his way through arguments. Destiny is a skilled weasel, that’s all he is.
Weasel. Perfectly describes him. 👍
He is, in fact, a weaselly little liar dude.
It just demonstrates the difference between a skilled debater who is knowledgeable on the subject matter vs an internet debate lord
He's suffering from being a fantastic moron. Dr. Finkelstein diagnosed him accurately lol
This part… he’s a debate bro… they train to talk the loudest and fastest not because they are right or wrong they just want the perceived “win” by not allowing the other side to talk
Destiny just comes off like he went to the Ben Shapiro school of fast talking B.S. He just wants to look like he’s the smartest one in the room. For a historian, Morris seemed very biased.
but fink isn’t biased? 😂
Any specific criticism? Lol
morris' own colleagues in new history claim he's gone off the deep end. he's no longer a serious critical analyst

@@saifalam2030????????
Finkelstein directly said ...."overwhelming majority", which means he did not lie. Destiny needs to listen a little more and talk less. He so wanted to get a point out that he forgot to make sure it was correct.
To be fair, I think they were complaining about Rabbani. But even he said "clear majority", so it came across as pearl clutching over irrelevant semantics.
The fact a guy wants us to believe, that aligns himself with men, women can be men. Is hilarious. He such an insight on history but denies recorded and established medical/scientific history.
This dude is a clear fraud a fence jumper setup by powerful people to try and influence the youth into a certain narrative.
You haven’t even seen the debate…. All these people shitting on Mr. Vitelli didn’t form their own opinions
Your right, how was just deliberately misleading, which is still a slimy form of lying
They both seem oddly, at least overly heated, Destiny slightly more overly confrontational (but the two close) when they were actually mostly agreeing that it was mostly not completely peaceful.
In fairness, Norm sat politely through three and a half hours of bullshit before he lost his temper🤷🏻♂️

"israel wouldn't do bad things for no reason" seems to be destiny's entire argument
So, I think you're being a bit rhetorical here, and instead what you *mean* is probably that Destiny's argument lacks substance, and hence can be reduced down to a one-liner. Am I correct in saying that? If so, why does Destiny's argument in this video lack substance?
😂😂😂 dayha doctrine
Instant internet classic, will be back in ten years to comment to the next generation that I watched it live.
Destiny is what happens when a chronically online kid who took AP classes in high school maintains an adderall addiction into adulthood.
Solid Facts. He makes me embarrassed to be a millennial. Isn’t funny how every single nerdy beta male has a full beard? It’s like it’s their last reminder that they’re actually real men. lol what a bunch of jokes.
He took way too many classes of socialism
He does verbalize arguments like he’s writing an ap essay examination. Cramming as much as he can into the space available, attempting to indicate his authority on the subject based on his ability to regurgitate officially recognized facts and dates. It’s a lot less impressive when everybody can see you rapidly googling though in the middle of the discussion. It’s also void of meaningful analysis.

Lex telling Finkelstein off for the "hilarious" remark is HILARIOUS because the same Lex was as mute as a fish when Destiny was literally LAUGHING in the room.
Lex did show a Zionist bias...even if he himself isn't. Hasbara??
Lex literally interviewed genocidal war-criminal, Benjamin Netanyahu, and said he did that interview to, "add love in the world." He tweeted it & that tweet is still up for a source. Lex is clearly not objective and supports Zionism. Take that as you will.
I dont think he told him off, he was excusin (what i assume was himself) for laughin

@@cluttereddrawers2084 you watched it like I did. What do you need quotes for? Do you want me to 'cherry pick' 😂
@@cluttereddrawers2084as he was reading the report he clearly fucked up. Henece why he read it so fast and mumbled past the part where the report said it was overwhelmingly peaceful. In a large protest of thousands of people there will always be minorities that get careied away and violent, that doesn’t justify the hundreds of killings and attacks on civilians (unless they're Palestinian because they're obviously savages and radicalised ofc ). His debate partner himself literally admitted the IDF acted poorly during the great march and condemned it before Destiny read the report.
the irony of this statement is unfathomable, enough comments for today
@@suf1an658 the UN reports the crowd was setting fires at the fence, flying incendiary kites which damaged agriculture, so yes overwhelmingly peaceful, with a tiny minority setting fires and flying fires into Israel. Nobody justified attacks on civilians, destiny and benny both said soldiers in the IDF who targeted people like that should and some have been tried for it.
There was a moderator that whole 5 minutes?!?
😂😂😂😂 yes!!

@@PoliticsRealwhat did he get wrong?
@@lampad4549 Everything
literally everything, he's a lazy pundit who is wildly outclassed @@lampad4549
There was a missed opportunity here to clearly point out a contradiction Destiny was making. Destiny emphasized how unlikely it is that civilians were targeted by the IDF simply due to the rigorous checks and balances built into the chain of command, ie it would have to be approved at higher levels, not just by one soldier. But then minutes later he concedes that members of the IDF likely have targeted civilians at times. My question to Destiny would then be, of those cases that you acknowledge civilians have been targeted, by your own logic wouldn’t those have also been approved all the way up the chain of command? This is important because it actually makes Norms point even stronger, Destiny’s own argument proves that these are not just one off rogue soldiers killing civilians, but a deliberate goal of the IDF.
not to mention how the idf killed israeli civillians as well with the testimony of israelis themselves
like why wouldnt they kill palestinians?
"You got the month wrong". Video game streamers should stick to video games.
And the academic should get his facts right when he's read 10,000 books on the subject 😂

@@ri3121 How can they though? I don't think you realise the passive aggressiveness coming from your statement.
Potentially interesting tactic by Morris at 3:00. He interrupts Finkelstein by saying that he is willing to concede the point and tells him he doesn't have to go any further. He feels uncomfortable with Finkelstein laying out all the facts on record because he knows they are not favorable to his position and so prefers that they not be advertised to the audience. Rabbani shrewdly picked up in this tactic and quickly said he does not know about this case and wants to hear more, even though he is most likely very familiar with it.
Destiny needed this. He and his fans consider him an intellectual because he sounds smart when he’s “debating” dipshit influencers. He’s so out of place here in a roomful of academics. He and Benny Morris are lacking morality on this. The rationalizations these two have made about the genocide going on in Gaza against an oppressed population is despicable.
Can't imagine the ego you must have to go up against a bunch of academics after reading only wikipedia. He calls Vaush lazy (which he is) for not doing any research, but Destiny barely does anything beyond some surface level reading. Honestly, he's made up his mind before he goes into a topic and reads some things to confirm it and some common counters people use
Well said
I think he did good. He never argued that he was as or more knowledgeable than any of the people there. That said, Norman Frankenwien is clearly a schizo lol
@@sohail4287 What exactly was he uneducateed on? And if he was uneducated on these things, why did Norm freak out at his claims and insult him as opposed to dismantling his arguments? Sounds like he didn't know how to dismantle his arguments.
@@CR33SIVE
Because his "claims" were obviously bs and deserved to be ridiculed. Imagine making these claims with all the videos out there surfacing online. This guy is out here trying to paints these people as saints lmfao.
Lex should honestly be embarrassed for sitting Mr. Bordacelli at that table.
Without "mr bordacelli" the debate would most likely not even happen
Norm absolutely hates the fact that a chipmunk like Destiny is in this debate
Especially when he calls out Norm on all his bullshit. Think norm needs to up his book reading comprehension.
@@gtlogic6023 So you also agree that Destiny is a chipmunk. Good.
@@67y3j3fv2wg don’t care what destiny is. Be more mindful of frauds like Norm that rely on sleazy appeals to authority to make their points.
@@gtlogic6023 Norm is a political scientist and a researcher of the Holocaust and the Israeli Palestinian conflict. He is also an author and a university lecturer. In other words, he has spent decades studying and researching these two topics and also lecturing at universities on the subjects. I'm not sure which part of that you think is sleazy though. What are Destiny's credentials on the subjects? I don't know if you have spent some time learning and researching something and knowing it really well and then having some guy challenging you on your craft based on stuff he read about it on Wikipedia. Also, and most importantly, Norm is an activist for the rights of Palestinian people. He probably has been that for as long as Destiny has been alive. Destiny is a very arrogant and ignorant chipmunk and I don't blame Norm for losing his 💩.
@@gtlogic6023 Norm is a researcher, scholar and activist. His fields of study are the Holocaust and the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Destiny was no match for him here, no wonder he got annoyed by his presence.

@@jashanarora17 if by remembering facts you mean constantly misquoting books from the guy sitting right across the table from you until the moderator has to tell you to move on, then sure.
So it is impossible for the IDF to target children because they are 'organized'? What does that even mean? I wish they wouldn't stop interrupting Finkelstein with non-sequiturs, but on the other hand I wish Finkelstein wasn't so easily wound up.
That's what happens when you actually care about and spend your entire life delving into a subject only to show up and have to deal with a shill who cares about nothing and who thinks tired and easily debunked talking points are "gotchas".
No the point was that it would imply a top down policy to target civilians if there were drones, etc. used because they would have to be signed off and agreed upon by more than just the guy flying the drone. What this means is that Norm is implying there is a policy to target civilians.
@@Jockito as we know, the US has never killed children through drone / airstrikes OR targeted civilians. Anyone who actually thinks that there's a team of lawyers sitting there, analyzing the drone footage in real-time to wage whether a AGM should be fired is "regarded", it's just a deflection tactic to emphasize how "careful & moral" they are. If the laywers even go over the drone strike, which I doubt, they'll just look at how many civilians are in an area, and wage whether you should drop leaflets etc. or just do the strike without notice. By your logic, My Lai massacre should not have happened, yet it did & people commit war crimes IN PERSON and listened to their commander.
this is a very dumb strawman. None of that is remotley addressing what Jockito said. OF COURSE it's still possible for war crimes to happen despite procedures to stop them. That fact doesn't mean you can just pretend those procedures don't exist in order to paint a war in the most cartoonishly simple terms. @@based4573
@@based4573 All you have said doesn't disprove the lack of a policy to target civilians wich was the initial claim. How hard is it to just follow what was said? Making the argument that targeting civilians is endemic in the IDF is completely different than arguing that there is a military policy to target civilians.
Next time someone starts running their frantic mouth that's precisely what I'm going to say: "Mister Borrelli, you're such a fantastic moron it's terrifying."

Agree to disagree my friend. I enjoyed every bit of smashing that Finklestein laid on this clown who thinks he is an intellectual. Some people are not even aware of their idiocy, it is a service to them to point it out.

It is essential for individuals to be well-prepared and informed before engaging in a debate. Relying on real-time information retrieval during a discussion may indicate a lack of sufficient preparation. Engaging in a debate should be based on prior knowledge and understanding of the topic, as searching for information during the conversation could be perceived as a lack of expertise on the subject matter.
The only way my month would be completed would be if Destiny had a sparring session w/ Sean Strickland.
You know you're seething when you wish physical harm on someone instead of actually refuting any of their points.

@@BunchyPanther42 I honestly think Lex Fridman had relatively little to do with it. I've seen Destiny before and noticed his entire shtick is to talk about things he literally has no clue about.
I'm not joking, he'll look something up, get a few factoids and mistake it for actual knowledge.
To be fair the level of his delusion is fascinating (and maybe requiring psychologial intervention).
@@screenPhiles I watch Destiny from time to time and I’ve gotten the opposite impression, dude will refuse to take a stand on anything until he feels like he knows enough about it and does quite a bit of research
@@BunchyPanther42 That doesn't contradict what I said. He takes a position on something, get a few factoids to support it and mistakes that for knowledge.
It''s either arrogant or pathological and the proof is that he actually thought challenging someone who's literally devoted decades of their lives to studying a topic would work out well for him.
@@screenPhiles it kinda does, he’s had multiple multi hour streams of doing research for months which to be fair I wouldn’t call him an expert by any means but Finklestein did awful for someone who’s done so much research.
