Thank you for the dispelling The myth series, it took too long for the algorithm A quote that applies In our history, when the Muslims controlled our fate, if a Jew wanted to pay his taxes or any debt, he had to remember never to place the money into the hands of his lender. Instead the Muslim had to take it from the hand of the Jew while the Jew extended his palms with the money. If by chance the Jew forgot and gave him the money directly, the consequences could have been fatal. I fear that this philosophy is still prevalent today. It is the notion that the Arabs, and in turn Hamas, cannot understand or accept that “He hit me back.” They cannot acknowledge the fact that the Israeli army is so powerful and is not subservient to them and that now they must recognize its superiority. Their hate that is taught from a young age becomes so intense that it cannot abate. Our sages tell us that “Sin’ah mekalkelet et hashurah” - hate has no bounds and no explanation. People will do irrational things when they are motivated by their hatred for someone.
So interesting to hear the international legal perspective instead of the well funded bile that is normally leveled at Israel through the international self serving media.

You didn’t really pay attention did you? Or you don’t have an argument and just shout some derogatory claim so others might be persuaded to not listen. Those who are persuaded to not listen to his arguments where not ready to listen up front and those who do listen are spurred on by your comment and will probably learn something 😊
How do you know that he is an illegal settler? I would guess you do NOT even know if there is or is NOT anything called an illegal settler, in international law.
I wish this had a wider audience. Professor Kontorovich is such a great speaker and so knowledgeable.

Excellent interview and compelling arguments.
Thanks!!
Thank you prof.
this guy has definitely convinced me that Israel has been nothing but fair and decent to the Palestinian people.
Dispelling myths with a settler - you can't make that one up!

This is cherry picking nonsense
If you can’t argue your case then just shout out what you do and claim that is what the counterparty is doing!!
This guy preaches the law when he himself is an illegal settler. He has zero credibility!
