Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 тра 2024
- The Hamilton Award Dinner is a special night in the life of the Institute. It provides us with an opportunity to honor deserving individuals who embody the mission of the Manhattan Institute-advancing opportunity, individual liberty, and the rule of law in America and its great cities.
This year we were delighted to honor Douglas Murray (@douglasmurray) his unwavering defense of Western values, and Ross Perot Jr., for representing the best of civic engagement in Dallas and throughout Texas.
Douglas Murray: "I want to dedicate [this award] to the people of Israel of all ages, who, in the face of absolute death cults-in the face of people who most people in this country have no idea of, can't imagine what these people are capable of-I want to dedicate my acceptance of this award to the people of Israel, who, in the face of death, choose life. Thank you."

As an Israeli we can not express our deep appreciation for everything Douglas Murray has done in the last 7 months. One of the true friends of Israel and we will never forget this lone brave voice in these dark times.
He is a good man who stands by his morals and his convictions with integrity. A love listening to him because I agree with him 100% I'm not Jewish, I'm just a democratic woman that lives in the state of South Dakota in the United States and I stand with Israel and the Jewish people always.
AM YISRAEL CHAI 🇮🇱 ❤️🇺🇲
He's not a lone voice, He speaks for and with millions , you're not alone , nor will you ever be .
גם אני ❤
@@lisawise9849Agree 100% …🇨🇦✝️🇬🇧
Il m'a aidé à apprécier et admirer davantage Israël et le peuple juif même si à la base j'avais beaucoup de respect pour tous les Juifs surtout après avoir été en Israël 👏👏
As a Christian, I thank Douglas Murray for his tirelessly defense of the west and of those who still are fighting hate and wishes for total anhiliation. Those who restled with God. Israel You are not alone. Godspeed Douglas.
You can actually say this as a ...Christian?
@@elizabethleslie9694Yes we can !
Running in your own lane?
God only knows what you've been through God only knows what they say about you God only knows the real you there's a kinda love that God only knows.
Hello Dolly. Pardon? Louis Armstrong sang 'We have all the time in the world!' Go figure. Berean Call Acts 17:11
@@elizabethleslie9694 absolutely. The peace of the west bank, the end of the killing, and the use of little children, and civil adults as human shields will end if we stop idolizing a genocidal organization who only want the total destruction of others just because they pray to a different God. WHO RISK THE LIFES OF SO MANY PEOPLE BY GOING INTO A RAMPAGE OF BLO0D AND RAPE IN THE FIRST PLACE? BEING CHRISTIAN MEAN DIES NOT SUPPPRT TERRORIST (I HOPE UA-cam DONT DELETE MY RESPONSE)
@@elizabethleslie9694 And as a Christian I can.... agree
Israel today, is living all our tomorrows.
I've not heard that saying. It is very nice.
Extremely well said.
True. That religion cant help itself. It cant help but impose itself on other peoples and demand submission.
Unfortunately I agree with you 100
How can people be so blind, I should say govts ,it's obvious it's more about money and not fighting terrorism.
I'm so ashamed of Australia govt they do not speak for me!
God bless Irael and all Israelis 🇮🇱 🇮🇱 🇮🇱 💔❤️❤️
I fear you may be right, and sincerely hope you're wrong.
Dear Sir
Jewish People are grateful for ever. Thank you for defending the truth
We thank the Jewish people for introducing us to God , if it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have the Bible . Without the bible we would be savages.
I’m not jewish and I appreciate Charles Murray’s moving tribute to the Israeli people. 🇨🇦 i declare it to anyone who might ask where I stand.
I wish I could listen to Douglas Murray speak everyday, he's simply brilliant.
I do, or at least it seems that way. I cannot get enough of this man.
He sure is. As he says basically the same things, he is the posh, cultured version of Tommy Robinson.
@@dorsetbigcats6292
You're right there.
Me too. He articulatesand defends the principles of the West far better than I can at the moment.
Well said Douglas , Keep up the good work, we really do need you in this messed up world …Proud of you ..Best wishes and love is sent to you from Cheshire.England . Proud to say you are ENGLISH….xxxxx
Douglas, I applaud you for your speech. It will annoy the hell out of all those so-called activists on university campuses throughout the US and UK 😂. God will judge them. Bravo 👏
The new world Oder having a bad bad day Shalom
Are there enough diapers for all those students?
They would be avoiding videos like this - too much truth
@@rmurphy1424 they also know they are no match for this man in knowledge and wit.
Douglas has no equal these days in exposing our complacency and entitlement and ignorance of the threat of Islam to a free liberal democratic way of life.
If Douglas is not prepared to debate with Norman Finkelstein, he should debate with other academics such as Avi Shlaim or Ilan Pappé.
@@shaunmulligan8717poor auld clown.
ISLAMIC PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME RIGHT TO LIVE UNPREJUDICED BY COLLECTIVE RACIST NAME CALLED TERMS OR PERSECUTION : THEY HAVE AS MUCH RIGHT TO BE UNDERSTOOD, AS A JEW IN THE HOLOCAUST OR THE POGROM, SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN COLLECTIVELY SLANDERED AS BEING ALL BAD, BY HITLER'S NAZI'S. TO REPEAT THE SAME MISTAKE OF PARANOIA AND HATRED UPON ANOTHER RACE OF PEOPLE, IS A HORRENDOUS WRONG. AND IT WILL NOT BE QUICKLY FORGOTTEN ABOUT. THIS HISTORY WILL REVERBERATE TO A CLEAR CONSEQUENCE.
@@shaunmulligan8717 No idea who these two people are - but Christopher Hitchens would have made mince meat out of them if they promoted Militant Islamic ideas - what a mastery of History that man had
He is amazing.
I reccomened you hear Sam Harris as well.
Thank You Douglas Murray 🙏
May G-d Bless you & protect you 🙏
🇮🇱🙏🇮🇱
It's spelt God - you are ok to spell His name properly as it has not yet been made illegal.
@@marciamcgrail5889 Murrays only God is Israel.
He' an atheist.
@marciamcgrail5889.
it is a Jewish way of expression to show the utmost respect for our Lord.
@@marciamcgrail5889 The idea that some people are afraid to spell GOD fully is quite upsetting, yet so eye opening!
Douglas, you are a beacon in a dimming western civilization, an extraordinary example for integrity, truethfulness, and professinal journalism. Thank you for being a true friend to Israel and the jewish people at this unbelievably chalenging time.
You deserve all the praise for your unrelentless efforts to combat spreaded false narratives, and voice out facts based on profound education and first hand knowladge.
Long may he champion truth and freedom.❤
Thankyou Douglas
I love listening to you here from South Africa. I adore you
Watching this from Ireland.
Douglas Murray is one of the best and truthfull journalists of our time. His book "The Strange Death of Europe" which is an absolutely correct in every way I can see it happening all around us in Universities, etc.
A great man I am so glad he went to see what happened in Israel the devestation by Hamas. So few journalists from western countries did that. And yes he's right about the denials.
Godbless you Douglas Murray
I'm Irish myself. I find the slanderous stream of lies being propogated by our media and political classes to be sickening. When this Jew hating fad passes at least we can say to ourselves "I did not comply".
I dont think he will be coming to ireland on his world tour thank god.
@tomgallagher7870 why not? Hea been here. We conservatives in Ireland far outnumber the virtue signalling lunatic left. Ireland is indeed lost but a leader may emerge and stop the identity politics
@@tomgallagher7870 I would thank God too - the truth is very hurtful.
@@tomgallagher7870unfortunately like many of your countrymen you are blinkered in your vision and seemingly incapable of critical thought. Look at the FACTS , emotions hinder critical thought, don't let your hatred of everything English define you. Also on a more light hearted note, learn to spell, people might take your aberrant thoughts more seriously.
Mr. Douglas Murray, your words mean so much to me, as an Israeli. I can't wait for the world to wake up and realize they've made a mistake, and that now is the time to correct it before it's too late. You are magnificent! Thank you!
It's not the people but the govt ,I along with so many Australians stand by israel 🇮🇱 and pray for your strength and courage to keep going. We are so ashamed of our prime minister and foreign minister,,
God be with you brave souls 🎉
I'm an Australian too and I stand with Israel 100%
shalom to you
Great that ireland recognises a palestinian state in the future👍
Israel has many, many ordinary supporters in the West. You just don't get to hear of them in the MSM. Meanwhile, social media is swamped with pro-Palestine propaganda and dissenting voices are in a minority (as I know all too well.)
Doug is a real mensch. Honest, truthful and uncompromising. We should all listen to what he has to say and heed his warnings. Upward and onward Douglas! We love you!
‘Doug’? Hahahaha
Douglas does take exception to his name being shortened to a nickname which he never uses. I would refer you to the Munk Debates of Nov. 2022 or 2023 - another magnificent performance.
Douglas Murray is such an amazing truth speaker.
If politicians had an ounce of this man’s courage to speak the truth the world would be a much better place.
He is a propagandist for Israel's occupation and crimes against humanity, not a truth-teller.
Those are my thoughts also
Outstanding Douglas. Thank you so much.
Very Dear Douglas Murry as an Israeli I thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting us so strongly.
You are rather rare these days sadly and unfortunately.
But we Israelis shall overcome as we always have. I am very impressed with you and deeply appreciate you.
May G-D bless you Very Dear Douglas.
Wishing you a beautiful life !
Thank you for your obvious love for us Israelis and for comming to Israel to stand with us.
You are so very welcome in Israel Dear Douglas !
We cherish you !🙏❤️🇮🇱
Beautiful words ❤️ God bless you all
What about Dr Mike Evans and his Jerusalem Prayer Team, Dr John Hagee, Billy Graham's son and son of Mike Evans. Multiple thousands of Christians help, donate love not only Israeli Jews but those in Ukraine from beginning of war.
There's plenty of us who support Israel - these misguided indoctrinated 'students' may get all the MSM coverage but they are a minority.
You have a lot of support, don't loose hope!
@@anneashley5110 Douglas has a particular gift for communicating the realities and the evolutionary effects, or logical consequences...
Near death life thrives strongest. Greetings from Israel to the world. Douglas is a shining light.
God bless Israel 🇮🇱 🙏 ❤

World is blessed to have a person like this . Happy and healthy life to you sir.
Very true
When Douglas spoke so movingly of the actions of the people of Israel, it made me cry.
Wonderful speech from a wonderful man
Me too. God bless this great man of truth.
Me too.
Me too... very touching
It’s been decades since the world has had a Winston Churchill.
Brilliant Douglas.Powerful and so passionate.Keep on talking and writing the truth.God bless you.🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was on alert in Oct 1973 with the 82nd Airborne for Israel!
I had volunteered for the Army. I was messed up. My high school counselor Mr. Olson suggested I join the Army and grow up.
I even volunteered for Viet Nam.
I grew up. Quit drugs. I Learned good work ethic.
I suggest the same for the disrespectful youth today.
I chose a life in the right direction.
I chose life. Not death. God is Good.
My 1st weekend at Ft Bragg going to DC and standing on the streets during the VN Protests!
Wow. Wake up call for me.
I am voting Trump.
I love my country still.
Country yes men who want only control are not telling the truth for the last thirty years of New World Oder all enemies of country and people
Awesome
Love from Israel ❤
An honour to listen to you Douglas
I love you Douglas!! All the blessings to you and thank you for your strength in these trying times ...
With courage and with humanity
Douglas Murray is the speaker who represents truth , freedom and justice . He has endangered his own life seeking and exposing the truth concerning important issues that affect all of our lives .
Douglas Murray is making history. Great journalist and Man.
Thank you for coming to America and standing with Israel and the Jewish people
Thank you for bringing awareness that this is the world’s problem.
We have to believe what Islam says… want to eradicate all of us …, no more slumbering…,we are awake !!!
❤️🇺🇸🇮🇱🇸🇪🇷🇴🇮🇹🇨🇦🇬🇧
I have warned people about this aspect of Islam for close to 20 years only to be called a racist. One always wonders what one and everyone else would have done in 1930’s Germany. Murray’s analogy of the flare identifying everyone where they stand is so on the mark. I stand against the neo-Hitlers, but I am shocked by how many self-righteous people who declare Hitler the worst man in history actually chose to stand with his ideals.
❤️🏴🇬🇧
What a statesman, and a true friend of Israel. 💙
Excellent speech Douglas! Thank you for your honest reporting!❤
wonderful speech; touching near the end where he dedicated his award to the people of Israel ❤. Bravo Douglas.
Live long Israel!❤❤❤
I’ve been following Douglas Murray for a decade, and it’s been so magnificent to see his evolution. A decade ago I had already thought he was a virtuoso. He seems to defy his own limits and it’s so gratifying to witness.
Evolution? Blind, random mutational chance over eons? How demeaning. Surely the word you mean to use for this great man's intellectual and journalistic maturity is 'development'?
@@marciamcgrail5889 You are a very condescending individual.
@@marciamcgrail5889 I think he said the words 'Intellectual evolution'? himself
Douglas makes me proud to be a Brit ! 🇬🇧 Long live Isreal and her people ! 🙏🇳🇮
He makes me proud to be gay too. He speaks for me.
@@northernsoul4477pretty sure he identifies as himself rather then gay. But the gays amongst us are waking up to the fact that we are their real allies. The allies who bleed and die for freedom for all rather then the pathetic, cowardly People who support the most radicalised islamists on planet earth
🙏❤️
The brilliant erudite compassionate Douglas Murray is a hero to the civilised world. Your speech of truth to political barbarism and ideological insanity offers hope to the persecuted and the people horrified by the terrorism of Hamas and the return of anti-Semitism to the western world.
Yes ideological indoctrinated insanity going on unnoticed by too many ignorant sleepwalking people , Douglas offers hope to the persecuted and the people horrified by the terrorism of Hamas and the return of anti-Semitism to the western world and not realising the meaning of 'Anti-Semitism ' without saying it the Glaring Other honest way that would wake them up .
I love Douglas so much. He's the most intelligent person on this planet. I love the way he speaks so eloquently, and with truth and passion. I'm Christian and English. I'm proud that Douglas is British. I stand alongside all Jewish people and Israel, and pray that you will all be safe in these very strange times we live in - particularly the last 4 years. God bless Israel, and I wish everyone around the world, love and peace. You are my hero Douglas. Take and stay safe xx❤❤
Thank you for speaking the truth
If we continue to exist, or perish, it will be written that we had no better friend than Douglas Murray.

Brilliant journalist, writer, with high integrity , and inspiring spirit.
What a man Douglas is. His courage, wit and intelligence never disappoints. He is a shining light in a dark time.
Powerful mind this man has ..such bravery
Definitely brave!
I am crushed watching antisemitism crawl out from the under the rocks and given voice by the world. The only thing that lift my spirits and restores hope is Douglas Murray and his making sense of all this horror. Maimonides, in his Laws of Teshuvah (Repentance), urges us not to doubt that we human beings have the capacity to choose good over evil.
Oi vey
Isaiah said that the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. People who don’t admit this, believe that peace with terrorists is possible. They can’t fathom that there are very evil people with a completely different set of values, to whom violence is desirable and peace is anathema.
It is only when humans acknowledge God, and His standards, on some level, that man will choose life and blessing. Some do this while claiming to be atheists, so they have no foundational basis for doing good, but by doing good, they are living in a way that acknowledges a standard of right and wrong, good and evil, outside themselves.
Interestingly, even by using a 7-day week, people are acknowledging God’s order, established at creation.
@@deannesanv8931@deannesanv8931 Good and evil are subjective terms wielded by subjective personalities.
To call Palestinian children buried alive in the ruble caused by indiscriminate 💣 mere collateral damage IS EVIL to some, and justified to others...
Be honest, Muslims pray to the same God of Adam and Eve being of sects of Jews who spoke Arabic and took Arabic names, and Muslim simply means 'one who submits to God.' Islam simply means 'to surrender to God'
It's the Muslim who pray 5 times a day to the God of Adam and Eve and they too, will not be abandoned
@@virtuosa69 Or religion is a pile of manure, which perverts belief for political ends.
Thank God for Douglas Murray.
Amen!
At a time when Western leaders, media and educators demonstrate only weakness and moral corruption, Douglas Murray has emerged as the voice of clarity, humanity and strength.
He tells the truth. May God bless and protect him.
Amen.
Amen!
Douglas, as a South African who loves Israel, I want to thank you for your heartfelt speech. I have watched your reporting of 7 October 2023 and thank you for sharing the atrocities meted out against our beloved Israel. Our God in heaven will repay all of those who did these extremely cruel acts against His beloved. Congratulations on your Award. Ina Smith Shalom

It's sad that young Israelis who love life so much must sacrifice their lives for peace !
And that their lives are sacrificed for the whole world, for us, as the darkness of evil encroaches.
@@C.E.Thomas1952they are fighting the battle that we all should be fighting as the West is falling under the evil cult! And they are so tiny, standing up to the evil alone!
I never really knew about or had heard Douglas Murray speak. I was riveted; and moved by what he said. When he spoke about Israel it was as though a freshening light came shining through, finally revealing the truth. I am so grateful to you,Mr.Murray; for speaking the truth about Israel.
Now is the time to enrich yourself with his books. You will never regret it.👍
Heard about him only after October 7th I think.
Douglas Murray has a brilliant mind. He is well-read, travelled and he is a kind, moral man. A beacon to me.
What world are we living in that there are so few Douglas Murrays?? He’s literally fighting for the truth that will be written in the history books. He is brilliant, eloquent and brave. May there be more who’ll follow
Douglas Murray you are a one off. Brilliant.
Thank you Mr. Murray for all your efforts since October 7th.
Every person that binds himself to the Jewish nation is a holy soul. We can see it again and again through history.
Douglas is blessed
Such clarity in a time of confusion. He is such a welcome voice!
Absolutely magnificent speech. Finally, a level headed and forthright man speaking his mind without dissembling about anything he addresses.
Douglas Murray is a fantastic human being
From afar, I felt the deep NEEDof Israeli's to contribute the immense DESIRE to their well-being.
Well said Douglas…Proud to say you are English …..We stand beside you and admire you for speaking up and telling the truth…Best wishes and love is sent to you …….xxxxx
Douglas Murray yor support is highly appreciated. Thank you 🙏
BIG RESPECT for this man. He gets it and he is not afraid to speak of it.
This man presents a speech with so much passion you cant help but be drawn in.
Douglas, not many can deliver such a speech with the absolute truth you do.
👏👏
As always, just brilliant. Thank you Douglas Murray for all you do. You're a true light in the darkness. This is so well deserved.
Why aren't the University and colleges educators turning out students as smart and analytical and as thoughtful and as eloquent using vocabularies that you would expect from such institutions. You meet all of the above requirements of a refined gentlemen who seems like you got a good education and made good use of your education. You have gone the extra mile to find out things first hand as a journalist. Thank you I love you! I like your individualism and how you can put down the lgbt "community" and still maintain who you are. You are so gifted sensitive and kind! I am a writer. You should only see what I've written.
thank you, Mr Murray /from Sweden
Has the voice with the force of 10,000 megaphones scattered about the Earth eliciting laughter, deep thought and change.

Beautiful speech. ❤ Douglas Murray is a true friend of Israel.
As a human and as a Jew I thank you from the bottom of my heart for you being there as an eyewitness to tell the truth, to tell the reality of Israel which the world chooses to ignore and belittle, if not deny. You are a true beacon of light, wisdom and sanity in this crazy, violent and terrorizing world.
Thanks
I’m in total awe of Douglas Murray, not afraid to speak the truth or show the world the horrors of what was done in Israel - more brave and outspoken people like him are needed in this world, you people out there are blind if you cannot see the truth he speaks, Israel has always been told to hold off, but not this time, it’s time to show the world they cannot be pushed around anymore. I wish everyone in Israel well and those fighting the strength to keep going. God bless them all.
Riveting throughout. In the face of death choose life. Douglas Murray, a full human being who lives life so intensely.
Love you Douglas!!!
