Great job with this Najib getting Robert on and to hear his thoughts on the horrors in Gaza! He's a great teacher in so many ways and he is100% in the mark in this video! I hope he gets out there more!
@tayrowell Excellent! It's so important for Americans, Europeans, especially the British and Israelis! .... to learn the truth and be freed and cured from their lifetime of brainwashing, indoctrination and propaganda! Israel is in a very bad place thanks be to themselves. Now surrounded on all fronts and their military, cultural, societal and moral failure on all counts and now the entire world knows the truth more and more! It's no wonder that smart Israelis are abandoning Israel forever!
The old Divide and Conquer mode. Acccccchhhh! According to 23 and me (for whatever that is worth), I'm 65% Norwegian and the remaining is British. Yikes! I don't want to have to have this Brit "blood". Thanks as always Professor for telling it like it is.
Yes, Pappe's book "Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine" is quite good! Others are Avi Shlaim's "Iron Wall" and Rashid Khalidi's "100 Year War on Palestine". Re making Nakba education illegal: the New Historians based their updated histories on declassified documents released in the 70s. These resulted in many books on the Nakba. When Likud came into power, the re-classified these documents. Can't have none of those facts floating around, now can we...
🎯 Key points for quick navigation: 00:00 *💔 The Israeli-Palestinian conflict: a brutal and seemingly unsolvable situation* - The speaker expresses their despair over the conflict and the ongoing violence, highlighting the need for justice and the devastating impact on civilians. - The speaker also points to the vicious tribalism and lack of empathy present in the conflict, with children and babies being casualties of the violence. 01:49 *🛡️ Blaming the British Empire for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict* - The speaker argues that the founding of Israel was a colonial act, a continuation of European colonialism's mistreatment of Jews, with Israel serving as a tool of revenge rather than a solution. - The speaker blames the British Empire for creating a recipe for conflict by placing Jewish survivors of the Holocaust in a land where they are surrounded by Palestinians whose homeland was taken from them, leading to generations of hatred and violence. 03:17 *🌏 Parallel with the Ugandan conflict: using a group to further their own agenda.* - The speaker draws a parallel between the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Ugandan conflict, arguing that both are rooted in historical colonial actions and the manipulation of power dynamics by British colonizers. - The speaker highlights how the British exploited divisions between groups, using certain groups as enforcers to maintain control and quell resistance. This tactic, repeated across different territories, resulted in continued conflict and instability even after colonization. Made with HARPA AI
The conditioning of their children, that particular behaviour, effects me heaps. Decades work with human behaviours had me thnking I'd learn something. I didn't really, sorry. Maybe because seeing same, an absolute disgrace that demands justice after it is isolated and stopped.
I am a set of a’ priori modes, not a body of limbs and organs. We need to move beyond the notion of “We”. Human is a loose notion at best. In essence, the body conduit has no fixed predicate in the abstract lens so the premise is incorrect. What is it of us, that knows this? Until we know more, we are a set of a’ priori modes trying to stabilise our line in an ocean of dissipating variables. We should define ourselves in this manner. We are a set of modes that allow for systematic alignment. A set synthesised with realities structures and stresses. Understanding this is the next step. Everything else is tied up in a field of inverted axioms and that path is a dead end. It keeps going round in circles. One has to look through the phenomenological lens if they want beyond this primitive, half developed monkey head paradigm but who’s really ready for that path. If you want to understand the modes - UA-cam - new paradigm fish by Yap. Stripping it right back. Alternatively- read my work for free on medium. New paradigm fish Yap.
Being super-smart in one or two areas doesn't make a person knowlegeable in all areas. Many intelligent people make this mistake, and feel they must be experts in everything, because they happen to be experts in something/s. But if they didn't study it well, they just don't know. Realizing we don't know everything is also important. He has opinions, like we all do, but he is not an expert in the history of this region.
@@DoctorOzelot Presenting the creation of Israel like a western european creation, created because Europe felt bad because of how jewish people got treated in Europe. Zionism started in the late 1800s, and partition plans of a "jewish state" happened way before 1948. There is this narrative going around that "the white man" gave Palestine to the jewish people, this is not correct. In the beginning was a enterprise of jewish people that cooperated, bought land and lobbied for a return to what they historically view as their "homeland"(Zionism). At many times during the early 1900s they did not have friendly relation with England at all(who had control of the Mandate of Palestine at the time). And in the end in 1948, Israel declared its independence and then fought for it with their own blood. Every country around them attacked them(together with the people of Palestine), and they won. The partition plan that the UN created in 1947, was never put into practice. That is how Israel got created, it was not given by white christians. Just to add to this, most of the jewish people within Israel does not come from Europe.

great professor in human behavior biology, not so great at history though... doesn't understand the conflict, gets to conclusions divorced from reality given he is basing his analysis on propaganda, half truths and lies (since he is not living in the area he cannot easily debunk any of them). And therefore unfortunately cannot help with solving the conflict... If you are a Palestinian or consider yourself Pro Palestinian, just think about it: you get 5 minutes to pat yourself on the back and feel understood (because he understands this conflict through the lens of the same propaganda pretty much you were taught, unless you're an Islamist, then the explanation is different). But what is the cost? the cost is measured in lives, the longer it takes for people to understand the conflict as it really is (and not through the lens of lazy intellectually Marxist leftists of colonizers and Imperialists). this is it, nothing more, nothing else. it does work financially. pandering to an audience, be it pandering to pro this or pro that side. the trouble is that giving objective journalism isn't that lucrative anymore. each side will find a reason not to donate (because each side will "feel betrayed" that the other side is represented).
Yeah - great word salad there. Sure sounds smart. But there is a real world out there where things happen and generalizations like "oh your side believes in propaganda" and "you don't understand history" are worthless. When you push people into the dirt, when you tell them that now you decide and not them, when you kill their friends and relatives - that is real. And you no longer live in this reality. Because to you it is important, that you are on the good side of the good people - so anything your people do is justified and anything the other side does is lies and propaganda and with bad intent - and of course your enemies just do it "for the money", because they are all evil and have no principles - oh my, they don't even feel human anymore, do they - wouln't you say they are more "human animals"... Little side not - I know a lot about German history - and even though the political situation in this conflict is quite different - the attitude of Israelis towards "Arabs" is very similar to how the Nazis viewed the Jews... A 1920ies proto-Nazi would tell us now, that we don't understand what the Jews have done to his people, that they are barbaric and devious terrorists - that they are paying people to spread their lies and propaganda...

Israel is the only democracy in the area defending it's right to exist. It didn't ask for this war and Israel is "not" a colonial power nor is America or England.. Palestinian homeland...you've lost your mind, Professor...it's quite pathetic...
Well, the Palestinians lived there before Israel. It's not pathetic to state a fact. "The only democracy in the region..." is a slogan just like "Make America greate again..." you don't think about what those words mean - you just repeat the mantra to show that you are one of the "good people" and those people over there are the "bad people". What democracy means, what history this concept has does not factor into your thinking and you also do not contemplate on who exactly is denying Palestinians "democracy". Telling people under occupation - who cannot have a free democratic government, because they are under foreign, hostile military control - that they suck, because they don't have democracy is a special kind of messed up - it's like breaking someones legs and then calling them lazy, because they cannot go to work... Western powers under the leadership of the US have worked very hard to prevent any kind of democracy in the Middle East...
why do we care what a biologist thinks about israel/palestine? why would we care what a fantasy author thinks about trans people? this celebrity opinion about subjects not their own is painful.
Sapolsky neglects the negative ancient Greek opinion of the Jewish tradition of circumcision, MGM. An opinion that existed for centuries before Christianity, European tribes first considered Jewish tribes primitive and barbaric because of this tradition. He's a brilliant neurobiologist but has been influenced by biased historical interpretation. Sure, Europeans were jerks. But what country or civilization was better? At the heart of the horror in Gaza are the shame and honor-based cultures that are both Muslim Arab and Jewish Israeli. They are more alike than different from each other. Even though Israelis share more values with the West than any Muslim country. The Middle East cultures need sex ed covering MGM, FGM, the murder of homosexuals, forced female body coverings, and rape of children and spouses.
A criminal never asks resistance to their crimes❤ but it knows that the continuous establishment of its criminal pursuits wil inevitably lead to more resistance but th criminal is confident that due to their mastery of terrorism and violence they wil continu 2 win over ...... instead of behaving like a tribal animal if one studies Jewish historians intellectuals like Ilan pappe it becomes clear that the israeli leadership from the start was reserved for the zionist leaders who always knew that the establishment of a Settler Colonial estate is a multi generational project and ethnic cleansing is a necessary prerequisite for a Settler Colonial estate ... Ethnic cleansing and apartheid an essential reqrmnt and continued genocidal policy implementations... In short making red indians out of natives.... "The elders wil die n the Youngs wil forget" Ben gurion The zionist crimes had started since 1897.... 1897- the first zionist congress under theoder hertzl establishment of Jewish COLONIAL Bank to promote migration for demographic change 1917- Balfour declaration legalization of th migration of European jews and empowerment of Jewish gangs of irgun hagannah Lehi and stern later absorbed into idf to ethnically cleanse the region 1948- UNO declaration to legalize the Settler colonial zionist enterprise which was immediately implemented by the massive crimes against palestinians which they call nakba or the catastrophe..... As for fog of war n innocents getting killed on both sides .... it's clear nobody can convert a criminal thru reasoning n arguments because they will keep on repeating the lies of beheaded babies n rapes to justify their crimes ... Haaretz has made clear beheaded babies n rapes on 7Oct2023 was a israeli lie
Once a crime becomes old after some years it becomes a "peace" of forgotten history .... every criminal wants to think like this and this is the ultimate belief which emboldens them to do their crimes against humanity
This is similar to Hitler saying Germany never asked for Jews in their backyard. In the fog of war with allied forces innocents get killed on both sides. So many Jews died. Sad but..... A reality. Stop whitewashing genocide.
As the aggressor loses a war, they also lose land. This is international law! It's a miracle that the Gaza strip is still there after 1967. You would think the Palestinians learned their lesson.
You mean like how Germany and Italy do not exist anymore? Are you from a different planet? This is not international law! Also Isreal does not give a f*** about international law. Also: You personally do not get to decide what international law is.
G-d gave a portion of the Holy Land to the children of Ishmael. Based on Zohar Shemot 32A ------ [R. Hiyya then says] Woe is to the time that Ishmael was born into the world and was circumcised. What did G‑d do [to appease Ishmael]? He distanced the children of Ishmael from supernal cleaving and gave them [only] a portion below in the Holy Land on account of their circumcision. And in the future, the children of Ishmael are destined to rule over the Holy Land for a long time when it is empty from anything, like their circumcision which is empty and imperfect. And they will prevent the children of Israel from returning to their place until the reward for the merit of the children of Ishmael reaches completion. The children of Ishmael [i.e. the Arab nations] will cause great wars in the world and the children of Edom will gather against them and wage war against them, one on the sea, one on the dry land, and one near Jerusalem. And they [the children of Edom] will rule over them [the children of Ishmael], but the Holy Land will not be given over to the children of Edom. [The children of Edom is the Christian West, for Edom is Rome (see Num. 24:19, Rashi) and Rome signifies Greece-Rome and the Roman Catholic Church, the foundations of Western Civilization] -------------- It had already been prophesied in the Bible that the descendants of Ishmael/Arabs shall administer the Temple Mount/Jerusalem. Isaiah 60:7 "All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory." Kedar is the second son of Ishmael, and founder of the tribe that bore his name (Genesis 25:13). Many Arabs trace their lineage back through Ishmael to Abraham. All the flocks of Kedar - On the word 'Kedar,' see the notes at Isaiah 21:16. The Kedarenians were a wandering tribe that frequently changed their residence, though it is probable they usually dwelt in the south part of Arabia Desert, or the north of Arabia Petraea. They are mentioned as dwelling in beautiful tents Sol 1:5 : 'I am black, but comely as the tents of Kedar,' see Psalm 120:5; compare Isaiah 21:16-17; Isaiah 42:11. The language here also means that that which constituted their principal wealth would come and enrich Jerusalem. The rams of Nebaioth - Nebaioth was also a son of Ishmael Genesis 25:13; 1 Chronicles 1:29, and was the father of the Nabatheans. They were a people of Arabia Petraea, and lived principally by plunder, trade, and the keeping of flocks. The country of Nabathea extended, it is supposed, from the Euphrates to the Red Sea, and embraced Petra, the capital of Arabia Deserts, and also Medaba. It is not possible, however, to fix the exact boundaries of the various tribes of Arabians. The general idea is, that their most valuable possessions would be devoted to God. Dome of the Rock is the Third Temple. There are some interpretations of the Bible that suggest that the construction of the Dome of the Rock is prophesied in the Book of Daniel. Specifically, some people believe that Daniel 12:11 is a prophecy about the building of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. "And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days." [Daniel 12:11] It is a heresy/unholy to think that Jews shall administer Temple Mount/Jerusalem as it had been clear in the Holy scripture that descendants of Ishmael/Arabs had been ordained by G-d to administer Jerusalem/Temple Mount.
Professor Sapolsky, you are such a good man.
He is just repeating antisemitic bs.
Robert, what a beautiful mind and soul! Free Palestine 💔
My favourite intellectual as a Palestinian,is hands down prof. Sapolsky

Telling people under occupation - who cannot have a free democratic government, because they are under foreign, hostile military control - that they suck, because they don't have democracy is a special kind of messed up - it's like breaking someones legs and then calling them lazy, because they cannot go to work... Western powers under the leadership of the US have worked very hard to prevent any kind of democracy in the Middle East...
The Jews have Biblical and historical ties to the land long before the Arabs have made their unfounded claims...
why do we care what a biologist thinks about israel/palestine? why would we care what a fantasy author thinks about trans people? this celebrity opinion about subjects not their own is painful.
And yet, here you are.
Not caring, of course 😂
Yeah, let’s only listen to the Israelis and the Palestinians. Of course, they’re not bias.
Behavior biologist. He's perfectly qualified to talk about contemporary human behavior
@@TheBlackEyedOne yup. Also raised Orthodox Jew.
A biologist can explain what's happening on the inside - he understands human behavior
Sapolsky neglects the negative ancient Greek opinion of the Jewish tradition of circumcision, MGM. An opinion that existed for centuries before Christianity, European tribes first considered Jewish tribes primitive and barbaric because of this tradition. He's a brilliant neurobiologist but has been influenced by biased historical interpretation. Sure, Europeans were jerks. But what country or civilization was better?
At the heart of the horror in Gaza are the shame and honor-based cultures that are both Muslim Arab and Jewish Israeli. They are more alike than different from each other. Even though Israelis share more values with the West than any Muslim country. The Middle East cultures need sex ed covering MGM, FGM, the murder of homosexuals, forced female body coverings, and rape of children and spouses.
Plus, Israel never asked for this war. And, in the fog of war innocents get killed on both sides...sad, but a reality...
A criminal never asks resistance to their crimes❤ but it knows that the continuous establishment of its criminal pursuits wil inevitably lead to more resistance but th criminal is confident that due to their mastery of terrorism and violence they wil continu 2 win over ...... instead of behaving like a tribal animal if one studies Jewish historians intellectuals like Ilan pappe it becomes clear that the israeli leadership from the start was reserved for the zionist leaders who always knew that the establishment of a Settler Colonial estate is a multi generational project and ethnic cleansing is a necessary prerequisite for a Settler Colonial estate ... Ethnic cleansing and apartheid an essential reqrmnt and continued genocidal policy implementations...
In short making red indians out of natives....
"The elders wil die n the Youngs wil forget" Ben gurion
The zionist crimes had started since 1897....
1897- the first zionist congress under theoder hertzl establishment of Jewish COLONIAL Bank to promote migration for demographic change
1917- Balfour declaration legalization of th migration of European jews and empowerment of Jewish gangs of irgun hagannah Lehi and stern later absorbed into idf to ethnically cleanse the region
1948- UNO declaration to legalize the Settler colonial zionist enterprise which was immediately implemented by the massive crimes against palestinians which they call nakba or the catastrophe.....
As for fog of war n innocents getting killed on both sides .... it's clear nobody can convert a criminal thru reasoning n arguments because they will keep on repeating the lies of beheaded babies n rapes to justify their crimes ... Haaretz has made clear beheaded babies n rapes on 7Oct2023 was a israeli lie
Once a crime becomes old after some years it becomes a "peace" of forgotten history .... every criminal wants to think like this and this is the ultimate belief which emboldens them to do their crimes against humanity
This is similar to Hitler saying Germany never asked for Jews in their backyard. In the fog of war with allied forces innocents get killed on both sides. So many Jews died. Sad but..... A reality. Stop whitewashing genocide.
As the aggressor loses a war, they also lose land. This is international law! It's a miracle that the Gaza strip is still there after 1967. You would think the Palestinians learned their lesson.
You mean like how Germany and Italy do not exist anymore? Are you from a different planet? This is not international law! Also Isreal does not give a f*** about international law. Also: You personally do not get to decide what international law is.
If someone is stealing YOUR home bet YOU are gonna be aggressive!🤔
This is NOT international law!
@@DoctorOzelot YES IT IS, look it up!
@@JohnDoe-hr4xj Are you high? Also: How are Palestinians the aggressor?
G-d gave a portion of the Holy Land to the children of Ishmael. Based on Zohar Shemot 32A
------
[R. Hiyya then says] Woe is to the time that Ishmael was born into the world and was circumcised. What did G‑d do [to appease Ishmael]? He distanced the children of Ishmael from supernal cleaving and gave them [only] a portion below in the Holy Land on account of their circumcision.
And in the future, the children of Ishmael are destined to rule over the Holy Land for a long time when it is empty from anything, like their circumcision which is empty and imperfect. And they will prevent the children of Israel from returning to their place until the reward for the merit of the children of Ishmael reaches completion.
The children of Ishmael [i.e. the Arab nations] will cause great wars in the world and the children of Edom will gather against them and wage war against them, one on the sea, one on the dry land, and one near Jerusalem. And they [the children of Edom] will rule over them [the children of Ishmael], but the Holy Land will not be given over to the children of Edom. [The children of Edom is the Christian West, for Edom is Rome (see Num. 24:19, Rashi) and Rome signifies Greece-Rome and the Roman Catholic Church, the foundations of Western Civilization]

It had already been prophesied in the Bible that the descendants of Ishmael/Arabs shall administer the Temple Mount/Jerusalem.
Isaiah 60:7
"All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory."
Kedar is the second son of Ishmael, and founder of the tribe that bore his name (Genesis 25:13). Many Arabs trace their lineage back through Ishmael to Abraham.
All the flocks of Kedar - On the word 'Kedar,' see the notes at Isaiah 21:16. The Kedarenians were a wandering tribe that frequently changed their residence, though it is probable they usually dwelt in the south part of Arabia Desert, or the north of Arabia Petraea. They are mentioned as dwelling in beautiful tents Sol 1:5 : 'I am black, but comely as the tents of Kedar,' see Psalm 120:5; compare Isaiah 21:16-17; Isaiah 42:11. The language here also means that that which constituted their principal wealth would come and enrich Jerusalem.
The rams of Nebaioth - Nebaioth was also a son of Ishmael Genesis 25:13; 1 Chronicles 1:29, and was the father of the Nabatheans. They were a people of Arabia Petraea, and lived principally by plunder, trade, and the keeping of flocks. The country of Nabathea extended, it is supposed, from the Euphrates to the Red Sea, and embraced Petra, the capital of Arabia Deserts, and also Medaba. It is not possible, however, to fix the exact boundaries of the various tribes of Arabians. The general idea is, that their most valuable possessions would be devoted to God.
Dome of the Rock is the Third Temple. There are some interpretations of the Bible that suggest that the construction of the Dome of the Rock is prophesied in the Book of Daniel. Specifically, some people believe that Daniel 12:11 is a prophecy about the building of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. "And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days." [Daniel 12:11]
It is a heresy/unholy to think that Jews shall administer Temple Mount/Jerusalem as it had been clear in the Holy scripture that descendants of Ishmael/Arabs had been ordained by G-d to administer Jerusalem/Temple Mount.
Behold, a Jew without guile, as Lord Jesus said of Andrew. I am certain He would say the same of Professor SAPLOLSKY
Sapolsky may know a thing or two about Baboons but not much about Israel or geopolitics .
Baboons and Israel is a perfect comparison.
