@@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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 😂.

@@itsjustdamian the question was does israel intentionally target civilians. which they very clearly did during the great march of return. istg destiny fans cannot understand the world outside of random debate gotchas and sophistry.
@@ererererd9497 did you watch the debate? Destiny and benny agreed instantly that Israel soldiers have on occasion targeted civilians but that it's not a top to bottom policy, especially with airstrikes. If you watched the debate you should know that they admitted that straight away and then norm still rambled on about "there was the snipers" for ten mins. 😆
@@itsjustdamian u can’t say it’s not top down when israeli officials at all levels of the government have been advocating for the destruction of gaza and the expulsion of palestinians from gaza for years. that is genocidal intent alongside genocidal action. i.e. genocide by the un definition.
@@itsjustdamian “remember what amalek did to you” “we are rolling out the gaza nakba” that sort of language is genocidal. that alongside the measures taken to lower birth rates in gaza (deprivation of food and water and the bombing of hospitals) is more than enough to establish special intent. that soldiers were not directly given orders doesn’t really matter when the pm of israel is quoting amalek, and when israeli soldiers have historically faced little to no repercussions for the intentional murder of civilians.
@@Gooch_cruiser challenged by a video gamer?! It is more like Norman is putting up with people who are not even on the same caliber of knowledge as him.
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.
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.
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.
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.
That made me laugh. It's interesting reading the comments for this video. The topic is genocide but everyone is commenting like they're watching a comedy routine.
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.
@@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.
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.
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.
destiny is such a moron it’s so painful to listen to him speak, and then his weird cult following has the audacity to complain about norm treating him with the contempt he deserves
this whole zionism thing is an act. everything was prepared and worked on. hahaha. it's a horror movie where all the cast were '' a real time serial killers'' directly or indirectly.
@@shariffseyzza4366 you have been fed propaganda through a nasogastric tube since you were born. How could you possibly think for yourself and realize zionism is morally sensible?! You do get it, right? All you're doing is expressing how intellectually limited you are...
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 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.
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.
I dont dickride destiny, but norms attitude was childish for a so called scholar in is research, this debate put me off norm entirely. Absolutely disappointing for such a debate
@@snuffcarl to give viewers a microcosm of why there's such contention around the world about this issue. It's a microcosm of the macrocosm. People talking over each other, having different perspectives and information that inform their views, no one really able to come to a peaceful conclusion.
I think it’s a courtesy from where he comes from that when you talk to somebody that you’re not mutual that the respectful thing is to address them by their last name
@@withinfinite5104Apart from Wikipedia what is your study of the IDF ? He makes a claim that he understands the IDF military process but where are his credentials, he was shown for being a liar in his debate with Omar Baddad
@@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...
@@fankaydarius5849 He's either senile or a 70 year old "scholar" employing 3rd grade debate tactics by pretending to not know someone's name. Don't know which one is worse.
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.
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?
@@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
@@AjaxDGonzo the bozo read the UN report that said the March was MOSTLY PEACEFUL and then said Norm was lying about the March being mostly peaceful. Don’t try and save face for this dipshit 😂
@@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.
@@willgiaYes in tha clip he said Isreal never purposely targets civilians even though they have a 90% civilian kill rate with their "targeted bombing". Even if that were true, the 15,000 children are still dead. Want another one?
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.
@@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.
@@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.
Can we all just respect the fact that finklestein is such a gentleman, to talk as slow as humanly possible to make sure Lex gets all that sweet ad revenue.
He’s not to be truffled with in this matter he’s educated and dedicated on Palestinian Isreali occupation facts and figures that’s are verified not just usual lies
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.
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
@@balzinderchhabra8804 in what way? Was it when flinkle didn't know about -dolus speciales- that is essential to prove genocide and is cited multiple times in the ICJ report he claims to have read and to save himself he used Mens rea ? That's your intellectual Titan? When a person can out pace your knowledge of a subject in 5 months your no Titan of anything 😂😂
@@MagneVikjord Except IDF commanders are literally on the record discussing the deliberate targeting of civilians as military policy. How you don't know this basic fact I have no idea
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.
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
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.
@@fafolaw Someone people believe "guilty, until proven innocent" when it comes to anything pro-Western. It's definitely not a clear sign of Marxism, don't worry about it. Forget I've said anything.
while Destiny can definitely argue an interpretation that he wants to...the idea that Destiny thinks he can school Finkelstein on the FACTS of the conflict is laughable and reveals he's nothing but a sophist.
Exactly. It's funny that his fans on this thread are viewing him as a high intellectual or is knowledgeable on the matter, is laughable. the guy came from gaming to going on dating advice platforms to a political UA-camr. He is just drifting to whatever is currently a major topic.
If you think you are right, give me specific examples where Destiny is wrong in arguing Finkle, and finkle is right. I don’t believe you’ve formed your own opinion if you can’t.
@@ElKoubi1975 I guess you didn't watch it, a "scholar" having temper tantrums and resorting to insults because his narratives where picked apart by "someone that only reads wikipedia"

One side driven by logic and attempts to reach a rational solution, the other driven by emotion and literal ad-hominem attacks. Yep, this debate sums up the entire issue.
Are you sure it both sides ....cuz to me one side tries to displace people using 2000 year old excuse while the other side tries to fight back .@@runntlan7177
Even worse is this: 3:40 Destiny quotes the UN saying "While the vast majority of protesters acted in a peaceful manner.." 4:18 Destiny mentioning that Norm referred to the march as "mostly peaceful" as if it's false and ridiculous.
No, Norm is the least humorous person on the planet. I’ve never heard a better place for name play jokes than talks of genocide. He can’t even let a gamer finish a sentence it’s apparently so painful. While children die, the people apparently speaking falsehoods are too painful to let speak.
@@TidyDisarrayI mean I think he was laughing at how ridiculous Finklestein was. If you watch the whole thing he is out of control here and lex has to talk to him multiple times.
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?
And it's a solid point, unless you believe the IDF is made up of cartoon villains who got handed a quota from the heavens to commit x amount of morally wrong acts. Even during some of the most vile acts of serial killing or organized mass killing, the perpetrators had their own twisted reasons and were subject to material concerns.
@@chuckles3116Nice strawman, why are all Destiny fans just comprised of logical fallacies. They obviously aren’t cartoon villains, but rather just war criminals of a pariah state.
@@daddykipperflipper4600 When Germany made the Dirlewanger brigade, they had the clear goal of breaking the spirit of Polish resistance. Even if we suppose that the IDF is equally bad 100% on purpose, they need to be bad for a reason, and that alleged reason needs to be consistent with their actions.
@@raccoonduck5406 Listen a bit more closely to the conversation, Destiny makes several mistakes in just a few minutes. Here an example: At 3:40 he quotes the UN saying "While the vast majority of protesters acted in a peaceful manner…" but at 4:18 he criticizes Norm for referring to the march as "mostly peaceful" as if it's false and ridiculous. 38 seconds apart...
@@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.
Also incredible how Bottachelli is impressed by how many bombs were so quickly dropped at the onset of Protective Edge when all that really confirms for the rest of us is how viciously aggressive the IDF is in its bombing campaigns.
I love how they're arguing that the Israeli airforce is super precise and organised, meanwhile Israeli news outlets have reported that the helicopter pilots on October 7 were joining WhatsApp groups to figure out what to target 😂
He didn't. Unlike other figures he isnt married to one side in an ideological manner. He called the IDF out for this drone strike and condemned it. Even though he supports Israel as a whole, he is willing to call out the wrongs of his side, something pro-palestinians cannot do.
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."
You HAVE to regulate mics and over speaking. It's beyond annoying. That one guy not answering questions and being smug and everyone needs to be allowed to speak at lengths and then allowed to be answered at lengths. Love love love the format.
this was a 5 hour long episode. i imagine you’re talking about finklestein? if so, tbf destiny had provided zero value for most of it and was actively being taught things during this debate. it’s unfortunately a 2v1😂
He didn't dodge one question. Destiny cherry-picking one quote from South Africa's ICJ case saying it was deceptive (it actually wasn't anyway) in order to dismiss the veracity of the entire case was beyond pathetic. Just because you talk fast while nervously shaking and pretending to check off facts on a piece of paper doesn't make you an authority. Destiny was shook.@@Neon-jn3sp
@@itsbohrkyeah it wasn’t as if Destiny was the one who taught Finkelfraud about the duolo specialis part and not the mens rea that Finkelfraud said 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That is the goal of Zionist defenders. They make sure such debates collapse, especially with experts, so you never hear the truth. You end up thinking it's just an unsolvable, contentious issue but it's not. Ethnic cleansing and ethnostates are inherently evil.
I can't understand why anyone would care what Destiny has to say. Why is he here? Just for entertainment? The debate benefits in no way from the presence of a random extra person.

@@itsjustdamian u can’t say it’s not top down when israeli officials at all levels of the government have been advocating for the destruction of gaza and the expulsion of palestinians from gaza for years. that is genocidal intent alongside genocidal action. i.e. genocide by the un definition.
@@itsjustdamian “remember what amalek did to you” “we are rolling out the gaza nakba” that sort of language is genocidal. that alongside the measures taken to lower birth rates in gaza (deprivation of food and water and the bombing of hospitals) is more than enough to establish special intent. that soldiers were not directly given orders doesn’t really matter when the pm of israel is quoting amalek, and when israeli soldiers have historically faced little to no repercussions for the intentional murder of civilians.

It’s because destiny is idiotically arrogant. It’s infuriating when someone doesn’t realise just how ill equipped they are.

@@j85grim4 where do you get your figures from?
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

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.

@@zachdave2994 I watch a lot of norm macdonald and seeing this in my notifications was interesting to say the least 😂😂😂
Benny Morris was living his best life
bro was just there for the destiny roast
@@davesprivateloungefr he even laughed at him when he wast being roasted by the opposition 🤣
@@TidyDisarrayI mean I think he was laughing at how ridiculous Finklestein was. If you watch the whole thing he is out of control here and lex has to talk to him multiple times.
@@TidyDisarraylmao you have actual brainrot
@@hhjhj393 Nice hasbara.
4:52 "I dont read things off of those machines" 🤣🤣 haven't laughed that hard in a good while
"Mr Martinelli...talk fast so people think that you're coherent." 4:00
Wonderful moment. Not sure why people still give Destiny any oxygen anymore.
Because there are a lot of young and dumb people on the planet.
Ima tell my kids this was Lil Dicky and Jerry Springer losing a debate
😂😂😂
Losing? What point did they lose on lol
"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
And it's a solid point, unless you believe the IDF is made up of cartoon villains who got handed a quota from the heavens to commit x amount of morally wrong acts. Even during some of the most vile acts of serial killing or organized mass killing, the perpetrators had their own twisted reasons and were subject to material concerns.
@@chuckles3116Nice strawman, why are all Destiny fans just comprised of logical fallacies. They obviously aren’t cartoon villains, but rather just war criminals of a pariah state.
@@daddykipperflipper4600 When Germany made the Dirlewanger brigade, they had the clear goal of breaking the spirit of Polish resistance. Even if we suppose that the IDF is equally bad 100% on purpose, they need to be bad for a reason, and that alleged reason needs to be consistent with their actions.
Biggest joke: Destiny wants to educate Mr. Finkelstein 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude didn't even know who the PM of Israel was 2 months ago lol
i dont even know why destiny is in the debate to begin with lmao
Even bigger joke: the so-called intellectual has to resort to name calling a streamer to win an argument
@raccoonduck5406 Awww another sad DGGer? 😂
@@raccoonduck5406 Listen a bit more closely to the conversation, Destiny makes several mistakes in just a few minutes. Here an example: At 3:40 he quotes the UN saying "While the vast majority of protesters acted in a peaceful manner…" but at 4:18 he criticizes Norm for referring to the march as "mostly peaceful" as if it's false and ridiculous. 38 seconds apart...
Mouin is all "I don't know the answer, I'd like to hear it" *grim smirk*
In fairness, Norm sat politely through three and a half hours of bullshit before he lost his temper🤷🏻♂️
Then you obviously didn't watch it lol
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.
Benny morris on the IDF " in a very organised fashion with lawyers, chain of command..." (and whatsapp messages saying drop the bomb there!)
Also incredible how Bottachelli is impressed by how many bombs were so quickly dropped at the onset of Protective Edge when all that really confirms for the rest of us is how viciously aggressive the IDF is in its bombing campaigns.
I love how they're arguing that the Israeli airforce is super precise and organised, meanwhile Israeli news outlets have reported that the helicopter pilots on October 7 were joining WhatsApp groups to figure out what to target 😂
They're still financed by the US, they have an unlimited budget to buy war machines
that's a self own for the IDF stooges
They also killed kids from the rave. That was deliberate???
The same helicopter pilots who admit that they might have killed many civilians from that battle
I don't see how them being unorganised during an invasion is gonna be the same as the organization when planning attacks but ok
Lex: Guys, please don't get me demonetized.
So much for the love of humanity and truth
"You made my argument better than me... you said that they couldn't have done it at the bottom if it weren't also at the top!" 8:08
excellent moderation 👍
It was intentional
Mr borelli aka motormouth
Who is Mr Parelli?
hes was in Fame wasn;'t he ? Played keyboards

Finkledicks arch nemesis
Mr Petrucci ?
@@wooshylooshyBut that is a girls name?
7:07 let's see Destiny defend the recent killing of the foreign aid workers by Israeli drones.
He didn't. Unlike other figures he isnt married to one side in an ideological manner. He called the IDF out for this drone strike and condemned it. Even though he supports Israel as a whole, he is willing to call out the wrongs of his side, something pro-palestinians cannot do.
@@ri3121 How can they though? I don't think you realise the passive aggressiveness coming from your statement.
Unlike Bach fugues, debates work better when there is only one voice at a time.
That's because a Bach fugue is infinitely more sophisticated than this BS.
Remember that a Fugue was composed by one voice
@TheTeeProd *phrase I believe
One of the most pretentious comments I've ever read on UA-cam tbh
@@WillyJunior I am devastated my comment didn't earn your approval.
Lex should honestly be embarrassed for sitting Mr. Bordacelli at that table.
Without "mr bordacelli" the debate would most likely not even happen
I keep hearing Super Dave Osborne when Norm gets loud
I'M NOT A PART OF THIS.
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU JUST SAID?!
@@Gen7486 lol
Don't ask him where he get's his ideas from.
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."
You HAVE to regulate mics and over speaking. It's beyond annoying. That one guy not answering questions and being smug and everyone needs to be allowed to speak at lengths and then allowed to be answered at lengths. Love love love the format.
this was a 5 hour long episode. i imagine you’re talking about finklestein? if so, tbf destiny had provided zero value for most of it and was actively being taught things during this debate. it’s unfortunately a 2v1😂
to follow this, destiny was genuinely misunderstanding concepts and conversations throughout. he genuinely shouldn’t have been here
Norm dodging any question proved just how baseless his claims are.@@itsbohrk
He didn't dodge one question. Destiny cherry-picking one quote from South Africa's ICJ case saying it was deceptive (it actually wasn't anyway) in order to dismiss the veracity of the entire case was beyond pathetic. Just because you talk fast while nervously shaking and pretending to check off facts on a piece of paper doesn't make you an authority. Destiny was shook.@@Neon-jn3sp
@@itsbohrkyeah it wasn’t as if Destiny was the one who taught Finkelfraud about the duolo specialis part and not the mens rea that Finkelfraud said 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@fritznovak4482 "did I just hear her say she's going to f*ck the jew out of you?"
This is such a dumb comparison. It doesn’t even make sense
Nobody is better for having watched that.
I stopped watching after reading this comment.
That is the goal of Zionist defenders. They make sure such debates collapse, especially with experts, so you never hear the truth. You end up thinking it's just an unsolvable, contentious issue but it's not. Ethnic cleansing and ethnostates are inherently evil.
Moderator failure. He should have told Density to shut up and let Norman speak.
I can't understand why anyone would care what Destiny has to say. Why is he here? Just for entertainment? The debate benefits in no way from the presence of a random extra person.
I'm glad he came by, lmao
You clearly don't get the value of a former carpet cleaner in a discussion about genocide and war crimes
Chef Finkelstein to Destiny... how would you like that a$$ (pause) medium-well or well done?
Destiny to Chef Finkelstein... well done chef!
This thing needs to be moderated lol
