Dear Dr. Yuval Noah Harari, I am Palestinian with many relatives in Gaza and you are one of my few intellectual heroes. I only wish that one day we will both live in peace and no force (from your side or mine) will ever stop us from reaching a point in which we can publicly meet and have a discussion over coffee without fear of either side. Just like you made up with the Germans, we urge you as a great thinker to find a way for us to live in peace. It is not wrong (even if you’re not a politician) to run for office and the day that people like yourself can run a unified country will be a dream for me. Please be always part of the hope that we all are looking for when it comes to peace and the idea of a unified state for both nations should not be something impossible or far fetched but it will set a huge example of tolerance to the entire world and could potentially end world violence for a very long time. No matter what your opinion is, my respect for you transcends all boundaries. I hope that you will read my message. G-d Bless You ❤
It will never happen as long as your people value death more than life. If you all quit Islam, perhaps there is hope. Otherwise, forget it.
@majorkuntz I don't think this has anything to do with Islam. You really never had any Muslim friends? It's a land dispute and we all wish for peace. You are of course entitled to your opinion but I am telling you really that peace is possible without asking Muslims or jews to stop being religious. My best friend is a Ukranian Jew FYI. I also love Jewish people and have no hatred towards them whatsoever. I hope that you will find a place in your heart that will make us as nations come together. We respect Jewish people as Muslims and observe their religion as coming from G-d too. But we need a unified secular state. That's the best possible answer to this tragedy. Peace be with you.
I wish to all the habitants of Israel peace and love... with all my heart. I am deeply in sadness to see the current situation
Tell "your side" to stop their j * h a d against I s r a e l . Problem solved.
Amazing comment!
I am a Muslim and I endorse Yuval's message. Jews are our cousins and we should strive for peace through justice, not only through security. Innocents have died on both sides.
Yuval always addresses a question and does not dodge it. He is one of the top minds today.
Such an important discussion! Thank you team for bringing this.
As ever, a clear view of history, a precise perpesctive on the present, and realistic expectations for the future. Prof. Harari is a national treasure and a humanistic voice for the world.
I am impressed by the comments which are hopes for peace
A sane voice which needs to be heard and spoken by all
Parents are guardian of the children. A responsible parents indeed can create a good children.
I Am sharing this video with my four children 24 to 33 years old, really important and clear view of this murky present and future reality, thank you
Mr Harari, you really are a wise and human man. I needed these words more than I knew. Keep on telling your stories !✌️🙏
He is blinded by his own pride! Both tribes are ridiculously prideful! Get over yourselves!
Peace won't work. We need to change the way both tribes think via calling out their ridiculous pride.
Thank you for sharing your wise counsel and insight on these matters. It's a very sad and complex human condition that causes these atrocities. 😔
Muchas gracias por explicar todo de manera sencilla y que tiene lógica. Usted hace que yo entienda la humanidad de manera real. Un fuerte abrazo 🤗 desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.
Yuval is awesome
Yuval has the cosmic intelligence. He is peace in himself.
Love, support and respect for all human beings on both sides of this conflict. A truly heart-breaking situation for all concerned.....in fact, for the entire world.
Yuval yalda brother and sister of 2 different worlds at one place ❤
I am ALWAYS SO IMPRESSED by Yuval.... Sapiens is my Bible. If I ever got to meet him I would like to ask if he thinks that we humans will destroy ourselves before we figure out how to cooperate to avoid the existential dangers (climate, nuclear, AI, genetic engineering). I know he says there's always reason to hope because we can change the stories. And I know he says that it's difficult to predict the future. But.... with all of his insights and meditation on these topics, I would just like to know his gut feeling. I think his answer would influence how I guide (not scare) my own children. I'm thinking that no matter what endeavor you go into (science, business, art, etc), perhaps the ability to find and work towards cooperation (on many levels) may be more important than we realize. Instead of expecting our governments to be the force of cooperation.... maybe we need to understand and promote the importance of cooperation.
Brilliant as always
Excellent interview with relevant questions and inspiring responses 🙏
Peace and understanding,; and indeed compassion will help everyone. As a Hindu with huge background in Buddhism and Jainism I now think life in any form sacred.❤❤
As always, his thoughts are thought provoking (stimulating) in a good way. I wish more and more people listen to him.
"Most wars in history are not really about food or territory, they are about the stories that we imagine in our own minds" Thank you.
It's brilliant ❤
blessed being.
Important discussion, makes sense.
Just read comments under this interview in original Sky news channel 🤔 Very interesting in terms of general mindset and attitude
Peace, empathy from pakistan . Universe is one, ecosystem is one, love is one.
What a great idea to write this kind of book!
Very interesting discussion.
💗🍃🙏
✨🔝✨
❤❤❤I think the sourse of Nation itself a faltline for war...
Yuval Harari MADNESS !!! WHY DO MAD PEOPLE WANT TO LEAD US, WHERE THEY WILL TAKE US??? WHY WE SHOULD LISTEN TO BLIND LEADERS. WE LIKE TO LISTEN TO FAIRY TALES WHEN WE REALLY KNOW THE TRUTH.
👏👏👏👏
The comments here are much better thought-out than the post on Sky News
Oh yes! Although Sky news comments represent some general idea of what majority is thinking about.
And it's not favorable to liberal Harari
Achilles in the Iliad says 'we fight them for their women'
Yuvaaaalll :) You danced wıth the words not to answer her vital questions... I'm supprised she didn't insist with the same questions to get plain answers (after he danced) and passed to the next question all the time.
I was looking for this comment or similar! What he said is scary. The key issue here is not what is said, but the significant details or truth that deliberately left unsaid!!
Here is a prime example of what I mean when I say that yuval Harari will let you have a half-truth at best. He says “what I think it’s important for people to know about the Covid pandemic is that these pandemics began with the agricultural revolution” while they may have began that way through the dawning of expansive trade, there is a bigger cause for global pandemics in more modern times. Yuval Harari is not an idiot, I’m sure a person like him is well aware of what I’m about to convey, but left this important piece out by design. HERE IT IS…. Every time a mass communications technology has been rollec out to the world, a global pandemic can be directly linked to that very same time. All the way back to the telegraph / telegram era. If it were one time you not have noticed. Twice, maybe a coincidence, 3 times it’s getting weird, but every single time….. apparently the physical organic body of man and animal aren’t designed to best deal with this kind of thing. It’s not just causing global pandemic, but pandemics in animal populations, as well as other negative impacts on them which I will get to a few examples in a minute. It doesn’t just end at the mass use of cell phones for example, because if it were the phone itself, we would have likely not had the Covid pandemic. It is basically reset every time cell phone and electronic companies roll out a new generation of tech for “your phone” IE, 3G, 4G, 5G,. 5G is not just a tech for fast wireless communication, it essentially allows for a mass surveillance state that once you adopt through the coercive pressure from likely you cell service provider, you can not opt out of, no matter what. But that is another issue. When you look back on it. No matter what historical global, I will say for lack of a better term “flu-like sicknesses” there was a new communication technology rollout at haft same time. Swine flu, bird flu, Spanish flu, Covid 19, just to name a few. You name it, there was a communications tech rollout to accompany it. Covid 19 was ushered in by the adoption of 5G. And guess what….. as “luck” or maybe “fait” would have it, the first city in the world to be fully blanketed in 5G was….. you guessed it! Wuhan China. The problem appears to lye in schuman resonance. Or the lack there of. Not only are our bodies designed to operate at a very specific level of the electrical measurement of Hz. Called Schumann resonance. Not only do we optimally operate at this very specific frequency, but so do animals, and the earth itself, a good experiment to corroborate this, is; if you take a cordless land line phone and put it next to a colony of bees, not a single one will come back to the hive. I’m 41 years old and live in Pittsburgh. About 25 years ago or so I began to notice that in the dead of winter, I began to notice that I was seeing robins here in the dead of winter. When I was a kid, never once would you see such a thing. In the fall, you would see vast flocks migrating to warmer climates hundreds of miles to the south. But now a lot of them can’t seem to make sense of how to do it. It is common scientific theory now that the way a robin was designed to navigate and thus find its way south for the winter, is actually not through memory alone but through the use of what scientists explain as a sort of “heads up display” they were equipped with, similar to that which had been incorporated into modern day fighter jets. Unfortunately, their bodies, and even more so their internal navigation system, relies on Schumann resonance to operate properly. It may or may not be possible to ultimately adapt to a different resonance, I think more so, not possible, but even if it was, we are changing the frequency in the ether so often at this point, there is no chance of adapting. If it making us sick, bees,birds, and ultimately the earth itself, what else is happening thst we haven’t even considered…? Harari I’m sure is aware of these things, but he’s in bed with big tech, and has plainly laid out a design, making him the architect of the biggest architect of mass genocide the world will have ever known. Making Stalin, mao, pol pot, and hitler look like altar boys. He has a plan laid out to have AI or automation do every job on the planet. When asked what their plan was as to what to do with the humans, he says “the best thing we can come up with is to give them drugs and video games” make no mistake, if you were really familiar with this guys real ideals and plans for world, you’d run as far away from him as fast as you could.
More over, being forced to learn new things constantly serves two greater purposes. First of all it gives us a feeling of constant progress, a worthy goal to work for, something to think about while keeping at bay negative thoughts and depression, a meaning to our infinitesimal lifes here in the Universe. It gives us if not happiness something very close to it. In second place, having to learn new things constantly stimmulates our Imagination (just like agriculture did while having to plan the future season harvest). Once more, thanks to your book (and native australians and Einstein) we all know where our Imagination (or dreams as native australians would say) has lead Humanity: To Capitalism, Communism, Social-Democracy, Monarchies, Democracies, Dictatorships, Money, Religions, Art, States, Nations, Philosophy or in other words: To run (and ruin sometimes) the world, to everywhere like Einstein said, TO PROGRESS.
God, Yalda is so beautiful!
Teach them kids poetry and its metaphors to stimmulate their imagination to be able to connect different concepts to create new thigs, new jobs which robots will be not yet prepared to do. Teach them kids to be cooperational (not too submissive neither too dominat but a balanced mix of both). Theach them to be GOOD.
All I say human free will and being only themselves important in this aeon
It's true. Day by day we adult are worse prepared to teach our younger generations bc the future changes constantly very fast. It's true. Nowadays, like the right hand of Steve Jobs said, we are forced to be students constantly learning all our lifes. All this things, like so many, have both good and bad sides. The bad sides are pretty obvious. If no one is skilled enough to teach them youngsters their future can be compromised. For most people (me included) studying is not precisely pleasant. Even less if you are forced to do it. Even, Even less and less if you have to do it all your life. BUT there is also a good side to all of this. We adults not being anymore superior to our youngsters regarding knowledge and wisdom will force us all to cooperate regardless of our generation. This will lead to a bigger group of humans cooperating all together and thanks to your book we all know where this will lead: TO PROGRESS. More than ever. Never again no one will be in a position of power leading some to abuse anothers.
🌷THANK YOU, PROFESSOR HARARI!🌷🙏
History will certainly remember you! But not as someone, something good 😏
Dr. Yuval why don't you face the elephant in the room? Are you afraid or biased?
Educated Beyond Intelligence = Yuval Noah Harai. Just ask him Heee Hahahaha Heeeehee ooooh Heeee.
If adults cannot be a good guide as he says, then we won't be having generations in perpetuity. But adults by nature have always been great in guidance, generation s continue.
Perhaps, this generation (certain sections) that sidewalks natural law could be a problem to guide...
I fear Prof Yuval is right about the skills we will need in the future and the fast pace of change. I'm a tutor and would not be surprised if in 5 years' time robots will be teaching my students instead of me. There are already so many computerised onlinr courses out there with prescribed lesson content offering nationally recognised and accredited qualifications.
It's inevitable, Musk's Neuralink™ will make education as we know it obsolete. People now spend years to earn a single doctorate, in a short while, people will be able to upload every doctoral thesis ever written into their minds, in nanoseconds
You shepherd with smooth words, lies and deception, your seed is death. l Shepherd with righteousness, peace and truth, my seed is life. And this will be the sign to you. Look Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the midnight hour, in the days after Passover. The zombies will be healed where they stand, set free from their severe bondage, and will glorify God in the streets with hands lifted high in worship and praise. Truly I tell you, the knowledge of the glory of God will cover the earth before it is said, “the godly one is gone and the faithful have vanished from among the children of men. I know who you are, I’ve seen where you will stand and who you stand with. I’ve seen your end in 2030.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TRUE WORDS..I ALSO KNOW ..
What about us buzet ?
Peace and order and the progress they bring can only be achieved by agreeing all together what is fair/just and what's not (a story if you want. a common one). It ca only be achieved thanks to Justice. It's very difficult of course bc due to our selfish nature (Richard Dawkins) we only care for our interests while ditching the ones of others but if we only are lead by our selfishness there is no hope for peace, progress nor nothing at all. Agreeing all together about what is fair/just to achieve peace is so true that it's what we all do now (and also in the past but unfortunately for everyone in a minor scale) while making, accepting and respecting the laws ruling our countries. To avoid international conflicts we must increase the scale of the agreement. And of course have some kind of police to prevent or even punish someone who breaks that agreement on his/her own for his/her own benefit.

The best🥰
So basically admitting that the more humans progress, the more miserable they will be/are becoming. So why continue 'progressing'?.
Do you think people was less miserable in the past? I think so, only conditions are changing. There are ups and downs, but I think we are still in the same position.
14:28 yes you can eliminate an ideology by demolishing its logical foundations. Another way is to challenge it on the terrain as communism was challenged and nearly eliminated.
Hunter Gatherers also suffered pandemics. The difference was that instead of them damn viruses and germs spreading among thousands they spread among the twenty members of the tribe and the tribe died (not only five as you say. viruses know not about maths. they simply spread and spread). Simply thanks to agriculture the number of people was bigger and so the number of deaths.
Enlighten us about the HISTORY OF GENO-cide 😂
His recipe for the necessary psychology of the future sounds like that of Elon Musk!
Built for war, a lot of pain. Death or Victory. Mars and beyond.
,,, david bowie,, good role model all around ... oi guess ...
The hunter-gatherer isn't extinct. We, exept very few, are still hunter-gatherers. For possession/property.
Why does he think he knows
its looks like he knows both sides, but i see he is still bias
Because he does know. What part did you miss?
@@janiebratt8826 when she asked about Natanyahu's plans to continue attacking Rafah even though the hostages had been freed. he responded with "I don't know what's going on in his mind". it should be applied to Hamas too. I think it's just his opinion or speculation
No…hamas is very vocal about its goals…there is no mystery. Without hamas I don’t believe netanyahu would have risen to power. Years ago, terrorist attacks by hamas at a point the two state solution might have been a reality pushed the country to the right and netanyahu got in. I believe he said that Netanyahu has no plans for the future. He is no fan of netanyahu whos main goal seems to be capitalizing on the trauma of oct 7, failing to take responsibility for his failure to protect the country and doing what he can to stay in power to avoid prosecution for corruption.
yalda hakim of sky news? seriously? OMG.....she is the daughter of one of the headquarters of IRGC, general HAKIM, DID YOU KNOW THAT? you must know it,....ha! WAR and ANTHROPOLOGY! KIDDING?
He is blinded by his own pride! Both tribes are ridiculously prideful! Get over yourselves!
Peace won't work. We need to change the way both tribes think via calling out their ridiculous pride.
What is the responsibility of a historian right now?
gaza.
People started building villages 1300 years ago,⁉️ but there was villages when Jesus was on earth. He went from village to village to teach, heal, cast out demons etc⁉️
Wonder where illness and war comes from? Look within....
The Palestinian- Israeli war is a sensitive topic.....a big puzzle......on the one hand one sees Israeli's ,who were & are God's children ( extremely dear to our creator) , for whom their religion is extremely sacred.....defending themselves FIERCELY against aggression of any kind ......on the other hand one witnesses a human crisis of a whole community running for shelter from physical harm, from hunger ,from livelihoods, & seeking shelter ..a safe roof above their heads.....makes me wonder if the latter are playing " victims"...as a repurcurssion of their own making ......!!! has instigations of sorts played a major role in the ensuing bitter war between these two nations.....only a rewinding of the sequence of events that has led to this state of affairs can help solving the puzzle that is the long drawn never ending Israel - Palestinian war!......which ,is going to be a herculian task ......
18:23 Netanyahu has no vision 👍
read IR literature, power and security!!! tit for tat
If this "man" doesn’t have any children he needs to be quiet. He is no authoritarian.
Thank You Jesus for judging this world rightfully and righteously. Amen. 🕊️🌿✝️🕊️🌿
As a historian, Yuval has lost his objectivity
The Arab Israeli conflict is not about religion. It's about land theft.
you really think that if the land had been given to Muslims from a different region the problems would be the same?
All are the same 23pair of chromosome.4500 millions long for our genetics development.all are the same blood.we all should value all of our existence.
Isn't it fair to say that the monster that gazan children fear are US made bombs being drop by the Isreali airforce presently and that these innocent children are living it today. I would like to know what Yuval's thoughts are for his beloved Israel.
Your comment boils down to a black and white, single cause and effect scenario. My sense is that Yuval Harari would present it as much more nuanced and complex, where both sides face a terrible reality with no winners and no solution in sight.
To your last point, you can love your country and not like what it stands for and what it is doing at the moment. There are many examples of that around the world today and throughout history.
@@user-xe3zn1yj1q thanks for your reply. I'll have to ruminant more on your thoughts. It's just so hard to watch this perpetrated famine by his country. Its not complex. Its the ruthless domination of his poeple on another. Thanks again.
Yaval , were you abused when you were a kid ? Sorry to ask you publicly
If you are genuinely sorry, why didn't you ask him privately?
He ain't looking to good...looks a little old and thin 🧐🧐🧐
Are you woke ?
U are still defending israeli mr gay
I agree with much of what Mr. Harari said, except that I believe that wars are not ideological, but always about territory and resources. This is how it all began when the UN gave the Zionists almost half of Palestine, with all the expulsions that followed as a result (the Nakba). Ideology only serves to justify the acts.
Nazism, Communism etc. = ideology.
