Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza almost 20 years ago. It has been under the rule of Hamas ever since. They've gotten more aid per capita than any other group in the world, but they use much of it to build underground tunnels and for weapons, and to enrich the leaders too, many of whom are now billionaires thanks to Western aid. Their attacks on Israel leads to frequent wars and destruction in Gaza, and to blocking waterways and airways to prevent them from importing heavy weapons. But they also has a border with Egypt, so the "biggest prison" is a lie. All in all Hamas destroyed Gaza and any chance for its development. If life in Gaza is bad it's 100% the fault of Hamas.
Well its been a while since I agreed with anything Sam says but that was eloquent and accurate. I'm 66 year old Christian and cannot get my head around what's happening to the Jews (again)in this age.
Ibrahim's "Sword and Scimitar" is a great read and it shows over and over, in this study of major battles between the Christians and Muslims, that the idea of the rewards of holy war - either material if you survive or heavenly if you die - has always played a major role.
Holy war because each fought for its faith. Christianity had to defend itself from Islam. If Christianity didn't exist other religions would fall to Islam. Islam aimed to turn St. Peter's at the Vatican into a mosque. It failed. They should read the New Testament where Jesus Christ prophesied about the Church.
The so called Holy War between Christianity and Islam was started by Islam. Should we call this war between Israel and Hamas a holy war too? Can you define "Martyr" according to christians?
Maybe, but Qur'an is more like a political tool used to gain power. It preaches against Jews and Christianity. It never mentioned Hinduism even though Muhammad pbuh was a friend of theirs.

Wow. Now this is heavy. Islam is the only religion I've ever heard so many rational voices explaining, calmly without prejudices, how it is not a religion of peace and shouldn't be handled as one.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy) - Sahih al-Bukhari 2977
It's very easy to explain. The Muslims have been taught that rationalism itself is an evil concept, concocted by infidels in league with the Shaitan (Satan).

I would really like to see the cloning of an Egyptian Mummy to see what they would say; would they have memories, would they be terrified…. Would they have a soul?

Harris understands; he's a smart individual who studied the matter in-depth and has a good grasp on how the real world operates - in particular that not everybody thinks the same way or values the same things. If only more people were as intelligent or well educated as he is, the world would be a better place, but alas...
From ChatGPT : This hadith discusses a future event in eschatology (Islamic teachings about the end times), where it is said that stones and trees will aid Muslims by informing them about the presence of Jews hiding behind them during a climactic battle. The wording of the hadith in Sahih Muslim 2922 is: “The Last Hour would not come until the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the Gharqad tree would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.” This hadith is classified as Sahih (authentic) by Muslim scholars, but it should be noted that it is not found in the Quran, which does not mention such specific events. Instead, this hadith is part of Islamic eschatological traditions and appears in collections of hadith like those of Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bukhari.
This is what the Islamic genocidal hadith says: "The Day of Judgement will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees. The rocks and trees will say, 'O Muslim, O servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him,' except for the Gharqad tree, for it is one of the trees of the Jews."
Apart from refusing to allow the demonization of anyone who criticizes the religion and aggressively prosecuting h@te speech in their religious schools/institutions, there isn't much we can do to fix it. Religious reform generally has to come from the inside. Unfortunately, nothing will change until large numbers of believers can admit that reform is needed. And that will probably take a very, very long time.
@@ponygirl6258 What does it mean practically? Are you hinting Buddha, Virgin Mary or Santa Claus as the new god? The root cause of radical Islam, as you know, is Islam
On the one hand, yes, it’s great to hear a voice like Mr Harris (who’s no Hitch but nonetheless…) speak calmly and rationally and convincingly on the topic in a way that perhaps more Westerners can attune to. What’s _infuriating_ , however, is that he says exactly _nothing_ that has not been known and established for eighty years now! That said, I do very much appreciate his separating “terrorism as a tactic” from jihad/jihadism. President Bush did not improve matters with his “War on Terror”; perhaps this clarification will find more resonance in current administrations.
Some Christian sects interpret Jeremiah 16:16 as referring to the Jewish people. The verse, which speaks of God sending "fishermen" and "hunters" to catch or hunt people, is seen by some as a prophecy about the judgment and dispersion of the Jews, particularly related to their rejection of God. This interpretation connects the verse to the Babylonian exile or other periods of suffering. These "fishermen" and "hunters" are understood as symbols of God's instruments of punishment, though views vary on whether the prophecy is historical or eschatological.
One thing's for sure - strategic planning is most definitely not Sam Harris's fortē. Some tongues are made purely for assisting the mouth in swallowing food without choking, and that's ok. Sam's wasting his spewing incoherent thoughts. He should try becoming a chef if he thinks his tongue is destined to making him famous.

Firstly, Israeli has not engaged in any kind of genocidal activity in any way. Proof? The population of the “Palestinians” in the West Bank and those in Gaza have significantly increased from around 1 million or so in the 50s to around 5 million now. If there had been any hint of ethnic cleansing, genocide or population control,then there would far less than a million Palestinians left 9n these regions (ignoring for the moment that around 2 million Arab “Palestinians” live free, democratic lives in Israel as Israeli citizens. It beggars belief that anyone can gleefully continue to shout about “genocide” when criticising (and hating) the Israelis (which must mean the Jews in Israel, not the Arabs, Christians or Druze, or atheists?). Secondly, any organization that wages a war using civilians as shields is committing a war crime, and any laws or conventions that protect these civilians no longer applies. Neither do any of the laws that limits what the attacker can or can’t do. Israel has conducted this war according to its own set of moral principles, but legally they were not in any way obliged to do so. (Ironic that the “collateral damage” has been the lowest in the history of urban warfare - and yet the very nations who criticise Israel have far more innocent blood on their hands than those they are pointing fingers at!)
Sam is so late to the obvious it’s nearly impossible to give him any credit. Yeah, he’s right on this. Just like a broken clock is twice a day. He and Eric both have a massive dearth of common sense. They are both ample proof that scientists should never be given political power.
I used to like Harris, and he's very good on religion. But how he reconciles his clearly logical and lucid views on the situation in Israel with his political views I will never understand. He must have a split personality. He can be rational and logical and spot on on one issue and completely deranged and deluded on others.

Where did you hear that? I do wonder how people could have missed all those videos that hamas themselves posted off that day...the cheering and gleeful joy as rlthey butchered people..For me it's enough having see picture sof blood in a baby's crib. I don't need to see an actual baby.Theu shoot and killed people and at worse just left a baby there covered in its own parents blood.As that better then or? For me thats still evil. There are several websites where you can see these self posted videos from hamas.Why havent you tried googleing them? It's like its more comfortable for people to hide from the truth than that ther egna actually be people who are truly evil on this earth.
My reply is being blocked.There are several videos out there and websites wher eyou can see hamas own videos of the event.Notice all the peaceful people cheering and notice the bloodspatter around a b**s bed. I don't need to see an actual dead body..to know that this is wrong..so at worst they were covered by the blo**d of their parents and weren't killed soo yeah palestine!? Or what?
Why are youtube allowing you to say your bit but when I jus point out that the proof is out there.Just google it. How do I say this ina different way...red coloured stains in a crib is like..so you wanna say the baby wasn't murdered but wer left alive just covered with the red colour of their parents and therefore..yay palestien? Or what?
No, it is true. There are photos of this. What was false was the "forty babies beheaded" story that made its way around the internet. But I've seen the photos of bloody cribs myself.
Israel is doing what they’re doing specifically because Muslims WILL do what Sam Harris is talking about. It’s been proven time, and time, and time again. As has been said multiple times, if Hamas/hezbollah/et al. laid down their weapons and surrendered tomorrow, there would be peace. If the Israelis laid down theirs and surrendered, there would be only the death of the Israelis. Make it make sense.

No sorry, what sam blankface/stareface said is far from the truth.
Fake gurus all the way down
Sam Harris is STILL a moron. But even a broken clock is correct twice a day.
5:05 Wasn't the babies being murdered in their cribs found to be false?
Not picking sides by the way just asking for my knowledge.
I mean I know I don't like Sam Harris because of his yt supremist views but I find Jihadist violence just as repugnant as the next fellow.
Where did you hear that? I do wonder how people could have missed all those videos that hamas themselves posted off that day...the cheering and gleeful joy as rlthey butchered people..For me it's enough having see picture sof blood in a baby's crib. I don't need to see an actual baby.Theu shoot and killed people and at worse just left a baby there covered in its own parents blood.As that better then or? For me thats still evil. There are several websites where you can see these self posted videos from hamas.Why havent you tried googleing them? It's like its more comfortable for people to hide from the truth than that ther egna actually be people who are truly evil on this earth.
My reply is being blocked.There are several videos out there and websites wher eyou can see hamas own videos of the event.Notice all the peaceful people cheering and notice the bloodspatter around a b**s bed. I don't need to see an actual dead body..to know that this is wrong..so at worst they were covered by the blo**d of their parents and weren't killed soo yeah palestine!? Or what?
Why are youtube allowing you to say your bit but when I jus point out that the proof is out there.Just google it. How do I say this ina different way...red coloured stains in a crib is like..so you wanna say the baby wasn't murdered but wer left alive just covered with the red colour of their parents and therefore..yay palestien? Or what?
No, it is true. There are photos of this. What was false was the "forty babies beheaded" story that made its way around the internet. But I've seen the photos of bloody cribs myself.
It didn’t just make its way around the internet, government officials in Israel the US and UK were stating it as fact.
Sam loses me when his TDS starts coming out.
Sam Harris should confine himself to narrating nature documentaries on PBS and allow the grown-ups wax intellectually.
yeah like he is gonna ask losers like you what to do
Do we think Sam tells the truth... No I do not.
He is learning.... he's not really an atheist..... he wants to be....
Read the muslim sources for yourself.
Sam Harris is your source of TRUTH? Bahahahahahahahahahaha
So Sam is saying if only Muslins "could" they would do what Israel "is" doing. Is that supposed to be a serious argument?
I think you’ve missed Sam’s point.
You miss the point because maybe you tried to take sides. You can take side and I decided not to. But I will defend Christianity sometimes.
Israel is doing what they’re doing specifically because Muslims WILL do what Sam Harris is talking about. It’s been proven time, and time, and time again.
As has been said multiple times, if Hamas/hezbollah/et al. laid down their weapons and surrendered tomorrow, there would be peace. If the Israelis laid down theirs and surrendered, there would be only the death of the Israelis.
Make it make sense.
