Imagine if this occurred in a Western country. This would be called terrorism.
@@alexnikolich2303 not if the pagers were distributed to a murderous cartel
It is terrorism. That’s exactly what it is
Anyone who is considered "Inferior" is a "Murderous Cartel."
@@elisereynolds945 If terrorists gave exploding pagers to cartel members in America and chose to "attack" when those people were scattered through the city in PUBLIC spaces and near CHILDREN and some children get murdered by an exploding pager...IT WOULD 100% BE LABELED AN INDISCRIMITAE TERRORIST ATTACK ON CIVILIANS and you know it. But according to racists in Israel & American claim there is no such thing as an innocent civilian in a Muslim country. They celebrate murdering innocent children and it is appalling.
@@darylhenry9595 nah you dont get it; its not the same when the victims are mocha or darker.
Call it terrorism, cuz that's what it is. Don't use the passive language that basically all of western media uses by just saying "explode" etc.
It's called war. They're at war, but pretending they're not.
Indiscriminate geographical terrorism to be precise.
@@Yanoaif Hezbollah did this (or Russia, China, Iran did this) US officials and western media would call this a war crime and act of terrorism.
@Yanoa keep that energy if your cellphone explodes in your pocket
@@Yanoais releasing biological weapons or torture warfare because the UN does t recognize this as warfare, this is terrorism .
They can coordinate a pager attack but couldn't foresee a paraglider attack? Ok
They could not because they are arogance
No, BiBi knew, Egypt warned them and were apparently shocked that BiBi was like "we know" and just left. Before the attack. It was heavily reported like in November
1 week before the Oct. 7th attack, Bibi and his cronies short sold 1 BILLION dollars worth of Israeli stock. They knew. They knew for at least a year. The report from their intelligence department detailing the attack has been leaked a long time ago.
because they underestimated the evil of islamic terrorism.. that is all there is to it buddy. Not everything is a conspiracy. Islam is plain evil
"coordinate" is implying a lot of work, but frankly they merely rigged the devices and shipped them to Lebanon to explode later.
It's basically the same as sending letter bombs.
This attack has so far killed 12 people, 4 of these were medics and 2 were children. This alone seems to bear the hallmarks of an indiscriminate attack.
personally I will wait for the proof of that. Its in Hez interest to inflate those stats
The info was presented by Lebanons Minister of Health.
Anyone who had those pagers are terrorists
@@elisereynolds945I am wondering if that was the same thought process you took about 40 beheaded babies, or all the other lies by i$rael.
@@steviejohnson378Even if that is true, Israel still bears responsibility for choosing means of weapons that kill so many people that are protected under International Law.
"Israel commits terrorist attack in Lebanon." This is the real title.
You cant commit terrorism against muslims
@@camadams9149 So you'd allow attacks in the USA like these targeting muslims?
@@gwenwalravens8030strawman… but you tried, Goebbels.
💯
@Gobbldeegoo1 its 100% terrorism
At what point is Israel not the terrorists? This is unfathomably careless.
Events in the 1940s give them a generational get out of jail free pass
They have been the terrorists for a long time but the J government doesn’t want to call them that because it would be outing themselves
Hezbollah has killed American soldiers. They are a terrorist organization. Period. Full stop. Stop being such a simpleton. You don’t get to start a war and bitch when you start losing.
Because they went after military, Do you know praying five times a day keeps the brains away?
Stay mad. Soon Palestine will be free... Free from Hamas and palestinians. From the River to the Sea Israel is all that will be. Mauslemz lost the war. Israel always wins whenever it fights Arabs, this has been true since the end of WW1. There is no reason for Israel to stop now. Right now gazans are running, crying and praying to their pdf-file prophet and his 6yo wife... But he can't save them. Nobody can. Justice for Aisha. Without lies, islam dies.
So.does Lebanon have a right to defend itself ?
is Hezboullah the same as Lebanon?
if Lebanon and Hezbollah are synonymous then there are no innocents
No one has a right to defend itself except Israel. It used to be "Deutschland Ueber Alles". Now it is "Israel ueber alles".
In b4 the warhawk apologis-
Oh. Darn.
@@elisereynolds945are Hezbollah members not lebanese?
Children under 1 are called babies, sir!
Krystal calls anyone under 20 years old babies. I don't think he was trying to code anything, just calling them "children"
Yes, but that would be truthful and put a true image of the CRIME in your head. THEY DON'T WANT THAT!
@@iq-ride9329 You think Ryan made a specific decision to not say "babies"? Or do you think some outside organization required him to not say "babies"?
"Baby: an extremely young CHILD"
Merriam-Webster (capitalization mine)
@@janisauzins4103 As a parent of 2 I don't know when a baby becomes a child :)
If this happened in any other country people would be calling this one of the worst State sponsored terrorist attacks in world history but because it's Lebanon it's okay according to the mainstream media.
If it was any other country than Israel it'd be called one of the worst state sponsored terrorist attacks.
That’s why Israel created hesbollah through constant antagonism. It’s been part of their playbook for a while
I bet you wouldn't last a week wearing a hijab.
Not really. Israel and Hezbollah is at war with each other. They are shooting rockets at each other every single day. Hezbollah fired around a thousand rocket at Israel since August. I don't think there is a single country at Earth that would accept an adversary shooting hundreds of rockets at military AND civilian targets and do nothing. Can you imagine Cuba shooting hundreds of rockets toward Miami and the US doing nothing in response?
On the other hand this was the most precise attack against an adversary in the history of humankind.
No you don’t get it. It’s not about Lebanon, they are Arabs not white that’s why. If Israel had done this to a white country a war would break out immediately.
terrorism is terrorism. Hamas does terrorism but so does Israel. this was the most cut and dry example, but it still can't be said for what it is.
@EJZ8

If you actually followed the news you would know that Lebanon has been shooting missiles at northern Israel for a year and has as a result displaced the entire northern Israel.
This is a response, not unprovoked.
So you would rather Israel respond with traditional military responses to Hezbollah attacks? You want them to be dropping bombs and sending soldiers in to go house by house?
War is hell, and every innocent death is a tragedy, but it seems like people like you want Israel to just accept constant attacks with a smile and do nothing to defend themselves. The logical conclusion is that Israel will be wiped off the map if they take your advice.
@@EJZ8if you actually followed history you would know that Israel invaded Lebanon in 1978 because they were in the middle of their genocide of Palestinians and the Palestinians had fled to Lebanon, so Israel followed to continue its massacre. In fact, Israel used the same excuse then as Oct 6. Israel’s rationale for their invasion of Lebanon was that PLO militants had killed a bus full of Israeli militants and some of their family members. Israel is the kid on the playground that continues to cry when their nose gets bloodied, even after they took a bat to another kids knees for sitting at the wrong lunch table… that’s Israel. And you’re coping.
Hamas does terrorism, Hezbollah does terrorism, Israel fights terrorism.
@@EJZ8 100%
Can anyone say with a straight face that Isreal is not a terrorist state at this point?
No. And the people who do say that are war criminals and terrorists themselves.
They took a page from the surrounding states
its quite easy for us to judge when we are living in peace when Israel is literally surrounded by enemies who want to wipe them out
They attacked terrorist and your mad?
So terrorist attacked terrorists and you’re mad?
I mean this strikes me as terrorism on a global scale.
Striking a declared terror group is terrorism? 🤔
@@paulweeldreyer7457
Declared?
You mean designated terrorists by Amerikkka
Nope
Sorry
when it affects the local non-involved population, how is not terrorism?
@@paulweeldreyer7457when non-combatants can see it and it scares them? Yea…terror.
@@paulweeldreyer7457 oh so the pagers only targeted Hezbollah? Cool what's your source on that?
Can you imagine someone holding a child as this thing exploded?
Like...a terrorist holding his child is still not a terrorist? He made a *choice* to be a terrorist, and now he holds his child as if being a terrorist doesn't inherently put your child at risk.
He made the choice, he gets the consequence, and the risk to the terrorist's child is his choice.
@@bbainter7880 So lets be clear, you say anyone who is arab is a terrorist. Which is what your saying given that pagers are not exclusively used by Hezbollah and we have reports of people who are not part of Hezbollah being hit in these attacks too which seems to imply that people who were not hezbollah also got rigged pagers.
See you might think that people have to have Israels permission to exist but thats because you are mentally ill. But lets play with your psychosis a little longer. So according to you, every person NEAR an IDF soldier active or inactive is FAIR GAME for attack. So there was no innocents on Oct 7th then right? Because most adults in Israel are or were IDF so everyone around them including children. So if someone were to set off a nuke in Tel Aviv it would be perfectly fine because I'm sure there is at least one person in that city that had been an IDF soldier at one point or a member of the Israeli government at any level and that would make it ok following your line of logic.
And the moral of this story is, don't hold a child while carrying a device Hezbollah has given to you in order that you can carry out your terrorist activities.
Can you imagine children being murdered by hamas?
Yeah I can imagine; the JDF murder children at the rate of about one per minute. Like that, right?
Makes you wonder if they could do this to our cellphones?
Or if they already have...
Your electric car 🤷♀️
Yes
Probably can do it to anything with a battery in it. Cellphone batteries are very volatile I had one catch on fire just trying to remove it from the cell phone.
@@Basedeaththis was explosives not normal batteries
Just an FYI pagers are still used by: Healthcare professionals, emergency responders, restaurants, and people working in remote or rugged areas. Also while it was a company based in Taiwan, the pagers were actually made in Hungry under a license to use the brand name of the Taiwanese company.
Taiwan needs to be asking some serious questions then if they are to continue using their branding.
Taiwan needs to shut it down.
That right, but somehow, intelligence operatives got into the supply line of these "booby trap" pagers to ensure that only Hezbollah terrorists were given them.
So is it label as "Made in Hungary" or "Made in Taiwan"?
FYI these pagers were bought by the Hezbollah for their terrorist operatives.
Causing an entire country to worry about their electronic devices exploding is terroristic.
I think it’s insulting that you’re suggesting that all Lebanese are members of Hezbollah.
well good think that's not what happened here.
We need to start calling this what is: radical jewish terrorism
israel is the ultimate terrorist state
@@indifferentadvocate1737that’s not the point, Israel obviously doesn’t care about collateral damage or sacrificing 500 people with an electrical device if that think it’s possible that one of them is their enemy.
TERRORISM IS TERRORISM

@@SuiGenerisMan these things blew up in supermarkets, in hospitals. the kids they injured were not terrorists.
@@SuiGenerisMan How would you feel about Russia doing this to Ukraine? China to Taiwan?
@@BOLDBANGER Two children were killed. Their fathers were Hezbollah terrorists. Sad, but when people chose to be terrorists they not only put themselves at risk but their families also. These father's should have thought it through. Shame on them.
@@danamania150 What has that got to do with this? Stick to the subject Dana.
idiots in the comments not knowing the difference between Hezbollah and Lebanon very much explains their views
These people know nothing. That's why they cheer Isreal
i dont see a major difference between exploding pagers and missiles/bombs... if anything isnt this an attempt to narrow in the collateral damage and just target Hezbollah personal who are using a shady order of pagers
i suppose it comes down to was this just a general order of pagers to a retailer in lebanon or did Hezbollah/lebanese leadership specifically order this shipment directly
Still Terrorism Buddy
@@AndrewBrowner Doesn't matter, they detonated these pagers with no idea who possessed them. Additionally, Hezbollah's _civilian_ politicians also possessed these pagers, and in fact the son of an MP was killed. Reporting out of Lebanon (from the Ministry of Health, not Hezbollah) is that many, if not most, of the thousands who were maimed were civilians. That makes it an indiscriminate attack, which by definition is a war crime and an act of terrorism against a civilian population.
What they know is Muslim and brown they are racist but unaware of their own racism, it kinda like a person saying still terrorism without considering that all parties involved are terrorists including so called allies of the USA!
Clear definition of terrorism
War or terrorism? I think that question applies to both Israel and Hezbollah.
It’s only terrorism if you believe that interrupting violent jihad is a bad thing.
Doesn’t look indiscriminate to me.
No, no it's not
@@comment3711Then you're blind, because I clearly have seen innocent, young children injured.

So a literal terrorist attack? We sure seem like we are on the wrong side of history on this one
Absolutely.
Our governments are deffently he bad guys.
You could see that after what they said and done to Gaza or the fact how Palestinians were living under Zionism rule for over 75 years?
God you people are stupid. Hezbollah entered this war VOLUNTARILY, attacked Israel first. Get your facts straight. Also, this was one of the most precise/discriminate attack in the history of WAR ever.
Lol
There is no "right" side of history...
Calling this attack anything than a state-sponsored act of terror is silly.
Terror to fight terror. No one cares about bullshit semantics.
Attacking the ones bombing them!? For decades after decade? Terrorism? Ooookay
Call it as it is Ryan, it's terrorism.
Is Hezbollah a terrorist organization?
So killing terrorists is terrorism?
@@robertdimaggio9086 These poeple are morons, they are also going to ignore the fact that Hesbollah has been launching missiles at Israel for the past year. Did they think Israel would just continue to take that? You sleep in the bed you make.
Get a dictionary
Who is the terrorist here?
How does Ryan call this a "soft war" in one sentence and then talk about launching rockets in the next sentence? That sounds like a hot war to me.
Yeah that was weird.
Most likely both sides don't consider to be at a hot war with each other.
He refers to an active invasion and combat operation, something israhell hasn’t been ‘threatening’ to do. Rocket launching seems like their status quo atp
@@BDnevernind its weird because the situation is weird - maybe WW3 started ages ago but now it's 99% homefront psyops

So how did they know these pagers would end up in the hands of terrorists exclusively? How could they be certain no innocents would be collateral damage? Answer, they couldn't know that with certainty, which means they accpeted innocents would be killed or injured and didn't care.
Or they made a switch.
Ah, so Israel is not allowed to act against their enemies unless zero civilians get harmed, but their enemies don't have to abide by these same standards.
I have a feeling that if there were zero innocent casualties, you'd still find something to complain about.
I bet 95% were hezbollah terrorists
You do realize unfortunately civilians die during war right? It's like saying how could America fight Nazis if they knew civilians would be killed. An attack like this limits civilian casualties the most while fighting your terrorist heroes. Nothing will satisfy you Jew-haters
I vote they didn't care because when have they showed otherwise. Israel is a nation of evil.
It was a terrorist attack.
You need to define terrorism then

This action sounds great once you also see the recipients as your enemy.
Just ask yourself "Suppose that country one day sees me or my country as being a threat to them?"
Before you go thinking "But I am not a fighter" or "Why would anybody think I am a threat?", just remember that human beings can perceive threats even when there are absolutely none.
Does it still seem like a good idea now?
If it does then I hope you will always remain on the good side of the people who would take such actions.
Hezbollah is a terrorist group. They are literally an enemy. Unless you believe that one has a right to wage violent jihad and face no consequences.
That's called reality anyone anywhere at anytime could perceive you as a threat.
The more hostile we make the world the more likely this becomes.
ALLEGEDLY???
They were israeli pages no? This attacks civilians and everyone bear the pagers. As stated elsewhere they were Motorolla pages and the company has israeli ties. I dont know if they opened their first store outside the US in israel or not but if so, thats telling.
I also assume the narrative that everyone attacked was hezbollah is convenient but likely untrue. Even if it were true these tactics are darkness humanity should never venture into. This was a terrorist act with many innocents involved.

@@sharr630 Isn't anyone in the US or they are called "thugs" and the comments disappear? Protests for Palestinians have all been stopped and both Democrats and Republicans are cheering for "Eyesrael". Why not many media fools are still saying "Eyeran".
Yes, we need to be very clear that pagers, a technology invented in the 1950s, are used widely even today among _emergency personnel_ worldwide. Some countries have replaced all pagers by mobile phone technology purely for cost reasons, but e.g. in the UK and Germany they are still in widespread use. I sing a lot in choirs, and so do a lot of doctors. Occasionally a doctor's pager goes off and after a quick glance on the pager he or she either storms out of the rehearsal to a patient, or just goes outside for a short mobile phone call and returns.
Pagers are small and more convenient than mobile phones, they can be carried to and used in places where mobile phones are forbidden (such as in courts, or while swimming), they are less likely to be forgotten or stolen. And in major emergencies they work with no issues even if the mobile phone networks break down or become overloaded.
These pagers were distributed by Hezbollah.
I trust the US will “look into it”…
I love emily’s genuine questions and ryan’s so based answers 😂
Gives a whole new meaning to the 90's phrase "Dude, my pager's blowin' up!"
bwah bwah bwah good one.
It’s all about Israel land grabbing and dominance. Don’t you see this? As Chomsky said, a lookout post for Europe and America in the Middle East.
Israel has condemned this act and offered free replacement of pagers and Walker-talkies for the survivors.
How is this not terrorism? Why isn't news calling it what it is?
This is called.

As I watch this they are reporting on a second wave of explosions in Lebanon
You gotta call it terrorism :/.
Does Lebanon have a right to defend itself????
Let's be clear: this is terrorism. Indiscriminate attacks while you're going about your day, is terrorism.
Pure and simple.
Funny how all our actions towards alleged terrorists seem a lot like terrorism.
@@Basedeath cuz a lot of it is. Call whatever you want anti-semitic, but we all know that's a silly argument for you to try to make.
Hezbollah is in a state of war with Israel. just because youre not on the front line, doesnt mean youre not a combatant.
Indiscriminate? They targeted the Hezbollah communication network. They didn't blow up civilians cell phones, they went DIRECTLY after pagers ordered by a TERRORIST ORGANIZATION.
Did you write this with a missing eye and hand?
Bruh, this is crazy to say assuming your American, holding a civilian populace liable for military actions, and punishing them as well is literally what a war crime is.
Children died because of this, many injured who aren't even combatants why justify this? Should China or Russia pull the same stunt, injuring American soldiers while they are out and about in their day buying groceries and caught children and bystanders as well, the west would be crying foul.
Lest i remind you, how much Israeli citizens have served in their army and are considered reservists, should your logic apply, a lot of them would be considered fair game, even if they aren't on front lines
We need laws that make phone makers have removable batteries.
These devices were likely loaded with explosives. Batteries don't pop like that.
This is like something out of a movie. Probably one of the largest coordinated attacks ever in warfare when you think of the scope and isolation of the attack. It’s really pretty frightening that this was a successful attack
Only frightening if you are a terrorist or a cartel.
This guy acts like 1000s of innocent people died or were injured.
Leftists and muslims and rightoids have found a common cause. Me in the a 90's considered a total radical: anti corporate populist liberal stoner grunge kid with a bunch of deadhead friends dropping acid at full moon parties and I'm just like this ain't it man. This is not it.

Stfu child. Learn that ppl have differing views
The real question to ask is, can this happen to smart phones? Are we all carrying bombs? Can my phone be used to kill or maim me?
I mean probably.
These pagers were spiked with explosives. Regular devices don't pop like this when the batteries go too hard.
@@Thezuule1 Probably, seems they were tampered with. But still its terrorism
@@Thezuule1 i hope you are correct, if not you should sell all your tech stock
You clearly didn't watch the full video, you got on here, made a comment before you even watched a single minute. They explain in the video that the pagers were rigged with explosives.
I think after this everyone will start demanding that cell phones and pagers can be opened and inspected before purchase.
Ryan has offered some excellent analyses in the past, but today he was frequently incoherent; meanwhile, he kept shutting down Emily's attempts to weigh in.
I wounder what tricks they can make my phone do.
"Coexist" with Hezbollah and Hamas? What could go wrong?? Maybe we can all hold hands and sing John Lennon's Imagine while we're at it.
"The pager plan was part of an invasion plan."
And I thought my cell provider's plan was $%&^%.
Clever terrorism isn't anything but terrorism.
Not only is this terrorism. This is a declaration of war.
Nasrallah ( head of Hezbollah) repeatedly declared war on Israel, so yes, it's war
So it was just a terrorist attack.
Ryan's speech cadence makes it so hard to follow his point
Two steps away from Biden speed
I feel if he went to Toastmasters he would get much better. His reporting is great and with practice he could really improve it. Toastmasters has incredible results for people to learn the ins and outs of public speaking. These groups are still out there and they work.
UA-cam let's you speed videos up
Ryan is so utterly incompetent on the military side of the issue. To the point of being pathetic.
I don't know how this works since neither county are members, but Lebanon should file terrorism charges with the ICC.
Raise your hand✋️ if Emilys uhum bothers you every time they discuss conflict in the middle east....her lack of empathy is defining...and i cant imagine after almost a year that she lacks compassion for Palestinian cause.
Ryan Grimm "if I was" a *Hezbollah operative* my kids would be playing with the pager.
Pagers with usb-c ports… I never would have guessed!
If the Hungarian company is of any importance, it has links with Orban. Getting Orban onboard is a mere question of money. Easy peasy for Israel.
I really enjoy how Brian pointed out that a ceasefire worked while it was in place… which is why people have been calling for a permanent ceasefire since last year.
There are hardliners on both sides, the difference is that Hezbollah and Hamas hardliners will assassinate their leaders if a peace agreement is reached, while Israeli hardliners will protest and vote their representatives out of office.
Once you understand the frightening consequences of this truth, the nature of the conflict changes.
Who says it only targeted Hezbollah members? The same people that planted the bombs in the first place? Are you this naive?
The manufacturer in Taiwan needs to prove it didn't originate in their factory. Taiwan is an ally of the US and Israel. Boycott their products
They need to sue those responsible for tampering and sabotaging their product. There should be a class action suit against the manufacturer on behalf of the victims
This guy, nobody important cares. Keep yelling to yourself.
Aren't you worried that the words you write might've been written by a Chinese bot? I mean, put your little spin on it, have the pride of a human being (if you are one)
Or…….Hadballsah could simply stop attacking Israel. That would probably work.
Who will you sue for the people murdered by hamas and hezbollah?
Who do I sue for the millions claimed by COVID ?
Can China prove it didn't come from Wuhan?
No concern that a country with no dog in the fight in gaza has been shelling israel? Does mexico get to tell us what to do with usa indians? Shell us if they dont like it?
0:01 Ryan’s warmin up the Hands 👀
Wow
Avoiding to call out Israel as a terrorist organisation in such a long piece about terror disqualifies you from ever using the word terrorist in connection to Hamas! Appalling to watch your silence!
It specifically targeted terrorists. That’s not terrorism by definition. The comments just show that Israel isn’t allowed to do anything
Wah wah
@@Muskeljudentum Not remotely true. The numbers from the Lebanon health ministry show that the dead and wounded are overwhelmingly civilians, including children, as well as civil servants and medical personnel. If this was indeed targeted towards terrorists, they did a piss poor job of it.
I get bored listening to these 2 talk
I must say, your handle is awesome.
Regardless of who performed this attack why not call it terrorism, which it was?
So you think it was terroism when the allies bombed Nazi germany during ww2?
Was it terrorism when we killed Bin Laden? Insane.
@@steven7936 It was, and it would be a war crime today.
I'm glad watchers of this channel see this for what it is. Isevil.
Ryan is so uncomfortable talking to mainstream conservative that he thinks it's bizarre to do so. Wow
Let’s just hope that we never receive a world of pain here just because of the ways that Israel “defends” itself.
I was surprised to hear pagers like it was 1993 still. Such a tragic event.
Pagers are still in widespread use by emergency personnel such as doctors worldwide, wherever they were not replaced by _inferior_ mobile phone technology for cost reasons.
And...also used by terrorists because they can't be tracked. Vast majority of injured were terrorists, not first responder heroes.
@@bbainter7880 That may be true, but even so it's an exceptionally clear case of terrorism.
If this had happened the other way, would it be considered a terrorist attack?
Yes, it's considered a terrorist attack when it happens this way too. It is not Hezbollah or Hamas' job to stop their people from committing acts of terrorism, there are extremists everywhere. It is Israel's job to stop Hamas and Hezbollah's acts of terrorism and to put a price on those acts that is so high it deters Hamas and Hezbollah from even thinking about it ever again. Same thing applies in reverse. It is the job of Hamas to execute its plan to maximize it's probability of achieving it's objectives. If the world disagrees with those objectives, then the world has the right to take action against Hamas.
@@SuperSupersoda That was a perfect example of a Jordan Peterson type answer. A whole bunch of words saying nothing.
@@Snarkonymous Jordan Peterson is an actually brilliant person. I strongly disagree with him on many things, particularly on the solutions for young, disaffected men (I feel like his own life experience, which is not close to what most young men in the west are going through today, colors his opinions) but there are deep insights he has given in the past that made me rethink my assumptions. Look up his views on environmentalism and saving the world from climate change, for example, he's completely on the mark with that.
The fact that you don't understand what Jordan Peterson has to say is squarely a you problem, not a Jordan Peterson problem.
@@SuperSupersoda I'm well versed on his climate bs. He is absolutely off the mark with that and most everything else. He's a grifter who makes money from taking a kernel of truth and wrapping it in crazy. He became famous from a lie. He thrives off of lies and has been disavowed by his colleagues. It's sad and unsurprising that I was able to link you two based on the nonsense you wrote.
@@Snarkonymous It's not a kernel of the truth, I would call it closer to a half-truth, but the thing you've got to understand is that a half-truth is still a hell of a lot better than an outright lie, which is what most of us have been fed our entire lives. I think your view of Dr. Peterson is incredibly simplistic and off the mark. No matter what you think of him, he's loved by a lot of people and he's done positive things for a lot of people. I think you owe it yourself to at least understand why his message resonated so strongly.
These two are sounding very pro- Israel.
America needs to get out of the middle East. Let God sort this out!
Something just feels wrong with the counter points intro being so joyful with the news being a terror attack
Ryan mad his terrorist homies got played
You mean israelis?
No he means Hezbollah terrorists that want to wipe off a neighboring country away
Once again proving Israel is no better than their enemies.
It's much worse.
Who cares?
Far, far worse than their enemies.
This lady has the same voice as Buffalo Bill
The potential implications of this attack are terrible. Pagers today, cell phones, IOT devices, potentially even EVs tomorrow. This kind of attack falls squarely into terrorism
Emily does not counter anything she agrees with everything Krystal and other guys say there is no point of conservative view point at all.
I'm told now walkie talkies have explored
Them Israelis trolling hard!
Terrorism is trolling? Bruh..
@@ComicPower Bro, the Arabs fought dirty for decades. It's about time Israel took off the kid gloves, long overdue.
Someone check in on Krystal and Kyle they might be pretty upset today
Why?
Was hoping she'd be on just for the laughs.
Krystal's pager probably exploded too
Maybe she was hurt by her pager?
People murdered:
BP Right-Wingers: I BET YOU GUYS HATE THAT PEOPLE ARE MURDERED. HEH HEH 😏
...y'all are such edgelords
