Thats actually the best way to serve this! A man with nothing but curiosity asks another credible man. There is a lot of debates that gave nothing but emotion. Theo just a simple man that need to know!
He plays the fool so that you can't get mad at him for asking contentious questions. If he's an "idiot" he can't know better. Its like a small child asking someone why they're missing a leg. It would be "rude" if an adult asked but children and fools are allowed to be curious about sensitive topics.
Theo u r not getting cancelled my friend, u r getting new fans, huge respect for giving this man a platform to speak out what many college students are fighting for
But alot of students have no idea they just flying one flag to the next to the next. Indoctrinated into having pride for any flag but the American flag. Watching from New Zealand. Peace

This guy is on point. I'm a jew and it's tragic to see our religion and culture used to justify an illegal genocidal occupation. It's also sad that most of my Jewish family will not talk to me if I say anything against the state of Israel. But obviously this is nothing compared to what Palestinians are going through

@@autumnsantomauroganggang I live in Scotland, which is part of the UK (sadly). I would say that while the UK has a general political divide that is growing increasingly emulative of that in the US (Labour vs Conservative mirroring Democrat vs Republican) Scotland specifically is rather politically homogenous. Goes without saying it is a generally left-wing country, but as you will likely know the favourite pasttime of us on the left is arguing with each other! I suppose I was just curious to know what OP had to say about navigating something like that within the family unit.
@TomCL-vb6xc I am american. I just try not to lie, and also try to appreciate their viewpoints. I understand why soviet jews like my family feel strongly about Israel, because they were able to escape soviet persecution of jews. But it's hard, I don't have a great answer sadly
This is why we love Theo. Sad that he was clearly scared to share an opinion because of the possibility of being canceled. It actually proves bassems point about how we’ve been conditioned to never speak against Israel
The problem is, he is factually wrong. If you really have any interest in those topics, you can just read about them. It’s honestly not that hard but most people are not interested, but just want to see their favorite pundit talk about breaking news and hot topics. It’s OK if you view it as entertainment, but don’t go out and think that you know anything about the issue if you haven’t read in-depth about it.
@Alwaystrytoberight literally everyone in the 90s and early 2000’s…so you never heard people do it openly in the media despite numerous human rights organizations speaking out against the Israeli’s governments actions for decades. It’s slowly changing now because more people are seeing what’s happening on the ground.

For whatever reason (propaganda, religion, media, my youth) I believed I was a pro Israel person. I didn’t know what truly was happening. I did change my stance months ago from educating myself, but this video continues to affirm and strengthen my beliefs. Thank you Theo. Long Live Palestine
The fact that Israel has to pay bribes to our politicians, almost all of them from both major parties through AIPAC was enough for me to never trust Israel. I mean should that not be a VERY BIG red flag to see why one side, presumably the righteous and God's chosen people had to pay so much to spread its lies? Many people might be seeing the reality from Oct 7th, but some of us knew Israel's role in King David Hotel bombings, Lavon Affair, USS Liberty, and many hospitals and worship places they have bombed. They always look to start a war by planning attacks and then blaming the other side.
I can’t really say I support Palestine because they’ve never really been able to form a government but I don’t support Israel and the land grabs either
@@dingus6317 they had a government called the PLO. Then Netanyahu was funding Hamas to overthrow the PLO because he did not want to create a two state solution where the Palestinians have their own state. There are videos of him saying that they need to fund and strengthen hamas. Once hands took over the PLO now the two state solution was no longer a problem because Netanyahu said that he cannot negotiate with terroristZ. The plan all along was for Palestine to not be an independent country and for Israel to expand.

Wish that bassem would have pushed the fact that not only are they lobbying but oil and resources are rich in the area and it's a really ideal spot to have a military base in the middle east. Theo kept asking why and kept going back to capitalism and is so close to getting it bit bassem wasnt able to draw those connections for him

I agree. The older I get the more I realize I don’t know anything! My college degree means nothing. All I know is I want people to stop meddling in things that have nothing to do with them, focus on our own country and leave everyone else alone. And over everything else, leave the children alone! No innocent child anywhere should be dying because of greedy or power hungry people
I'm a 22 year old Haitian-American and I'm just a causal of learning about this situation and still trying to rap my head around what's going on. But my empathy and sympathy goes out to the Palestinian people.
I am German and have been kind of influenced by the "jew-question" since I was born. Thanks God at a pretty young age I got also in contact with Islam and thus oriental countries. So I am in an awakening process since I can think. I am really happy people like you all, who where never exposed to the whole topic start understanding what is going on, now. Oh, just to explain, many many Germans without a connection to the orient are completly blindfolded by "our history". Whatever that might have been.

I'm surprised that this topic was news to anyone. Either way you have to remember that you are listening to a biased point of view from Bassem. He leaves out details to further his agenda like anyone else would. And Theo notoriously doesn't ask counter questions to very important statements. He just agrees. Like when Bassem said that most/all of the brutal violence on oct 7th was fabricated fake news. Well there is plenty video of that brutal violence, not decapitated babies, that was the truth. But there is video of the mass slaughter, r*pe, humiliation and parading of naked dead young jewish women for example. Which was not mentioned by Bassem naturally, and Theo didn't question that. It comes across like the whole event was a lie.
Dear Bassem, Thank you so much for humanizing Muslims, Arabs, Middle Easterners for Americans. I, an American, have lived in Morocco for many years and am treated with kindness and warmth. I love Moroccans. Thank you for your humanity, compassion, intelligence, and wonderful sense of humor. You are bridging the gap between Americans and Arabs. TbarakAllah aalik.
Yeah and also Jewish folks. Theo is just a normal good person like 90 percent of us. He has no dog in the fight. Only love. Godbless theo von. And godbless bassem.

"If they're black, it's a gang. If they're Italian it's the mob. But if they're jewish, it's a coincidence and you must never speak of it" - Dave Chappelle
Unfortunately Chappelle comes off as antisemitic because he doesn't effectively address the distinction between Jewish and Zionist. Is he actually an antisemite? Not sure, but it is true that Jews in the US are some of the loudest critics of Israel, while it's wealthiest supporters and benefactors are Christian wingnuts that are hoping to kick off WW3 to usher in the supposed "second coming" of their goofy ass failed prophet Jesus.
I went down the zionism rabbit hole and have changed my mind about many things. The one thing that I have realized is that the US needs to stop funding these wars. Great show
The thing is that not alot like you knows the truth about what's happening. If all of Americans knows the truth i granty u that they won't accept to fund the terrorist state
I watched every minute of the video! This is what I call education. Bassem explained everything, and I’m glad Theo for fact checking, because that left no room for doubt. Thank you Theo for inviting Dr. Bassem. I followed.
As someone from the south of Lebanon (Naqoura) I thank you for bringing our conflict to light, we are called evil, barbarians, anti semetic, terrorist but we are nothing but humans trying to provide a better life for our children like any other parent, and live our lives with love and enjoy this short time we have on this earth like any human.
This is so sad to read. I'm sorry you are persecuted and demonized by those who have the power to manipulate opinions and words to cast this sort of shadow. I've worked with many people from the area, Lebanese and Palestinians in particular, who are some of the most kind people I've met. I love them. I hope the world wakes up to what is really happening. God bless you
Medical surgeon turned comedian and an incredible orator. He is able to break down a topic that the elites are doing their best to downplay. The plight of the Palestinians deserves to be heard. Thank you!
I have a friend who was a born in Syria in 1994 to a Palestinian father and a Syrian mother. He was stateless because you do not get the Syrian citizenship if you have a palestinian refugee status. His father was already born in Syria. His grandfather was forced to leave Palestine and they still have the key to the grandfather's house. It is like a dream to him to go there and find the place. He lives now in Germany and has for the first time in his life a citizenship. It is really sad.

you can support Jews and Palestine at the same time without being contradictory.

great interviewer who actually wants to learn, love the way he asked questions that may seem simple but many ppl who are totally clueless about what’s happening still have them👏
It’s also a great question, to be so blunt and simple about it. Because it’s not a simple answer and it can mean and be interpreted completely differently depending on your political or cultural beliefs.
There is someone who knows his people and what precisely he is talking about as the first-born privileged son. His name is Mosab Hassan Youssef. May I ask, why you have a troll photo, as a 40+ year old man?
Bassam is someone who you need in the world, a comedian who is insanely smart and educated to bring humor to a serious topic. "My wife used my children as human shields, so I couldnt get to her" was brilliant on Piers.
Glad to hear from Bassem on your podcast, Theo. So many are afraid of even speaking about Palestine and we need to hear the voices of people who support Palestinians if anything is going to change for them!
They own America these isrealis .The Americans gotta wake up the Arabs Muslims been on the side of Christianity the whole time think about it why did isreal get created in 1948 and since Hollywood it’s been like what 75 - 100 years ago ? Seems like since the Zionist isreali Hollywood owners of America been pushing this demonizing of Muslims Arabs on all ameircan movies and shows just a push to hate us . Than I go back in 2003 when America went to war in Iraq .. found out it was isreal who pushed America to do it . Holy fuck these guys are untouchable. It’s way to out of hand they openly killing real semtic people in Palestine & trying to use the holocaust card at same time .they doing genocide to Palestinians WOW EVEN A 3 legged dog in India would understand this
To be honest, I’ve always considered myself a nerd and bookworm, but I didn’t know who Blinken was until I began paying more attention to how our government participated in this horror show.
Nothing against Theo, i like him and think he's really funny but Bassem is one of the last people i expected to see on his show. Massive respect. Bassem did an amazing job of explaining the situation to somebody who didn't know much about it.
I seen a Louis Theroux documentary about Israel years ago and it was shocking. It showed an estate agent basically harassing the Palestinians out of their homes. Some were afraid to leave their homes because if they did a Jewish family would move in. This was over 10 years ago in the West bank. It made me do a ton research and reading. Everything Bassem says is true unfortunately.
Huge respect to you and to all jewish people standing up and saying ‘not in our name’ we all stand together against injustice towards all, jews, palestinians, muslims alike , we are stronger together ♥️♥️♥️
Yeah. Some of the biggest anti zionists are jewish people. They want to divide us and make this a racial issue. Its not, we are united against racial hatred and genocide alike.
I appreciate you taking the time to have this conversation Theo. It is so important to have discussions in a democratic republic. If we cannot speak with each other, what then? Thanks you. Much love
Well said Bassem.. Thank you for being so articulate and so vocal about it... The way you put your argument is an eye opener. Theo represents many who knows not much about the history of it all and your approach is elaborative, simple and really educative! Proud of you!!
Thanks for letting him explain and share the story of long term genocide with such an open mind and curiosity. Bassem you are a great story teller, and thanks for sharing this! I am north african and occupation in Palestine is something that they teach you as a kid at home. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 !
do they also teach you that hundred thousands of Arab Jews were expelled from all Muslim countries after 1948? I think you were fed with Jew hatred all your life.
What they teach in Muslim countries about Palestine is a very one-sided and biased story. More often than not it is inciting blind hatred and dehumanizing Israelis. The result we saw last Octobre. In all Muslim countries and communities they celebrated the death of Israeli civilians inclusive children. Even on European streets. The indoctrination is that deep that most of them don't even dare to have a look at the facts from the other side. Someone who would present Israels facts - like Bassem presents Palestines facts in the West - would not survive in any Muslim country.

I am from Tajikistan, its a small country in Central Asia. And there many so called jews who left my country and flew to Israel. Israeli government helped them a lot, taught them language, gave them job etc. I said “so called jews” because some of those people didn’t know that they were ethnical jews. Many generations of them were living in my country. And some of them considered themselves muslims. But when they got opportunity to go for better life they just took it. That happens all over the world. The question is, why a random guy from small country in Central Asia can fly to Israel, take a passport and replace a Palestinian man who lived there just because he has some jewish roots?
@@AJ5 go to their embassy or use google. It shouldn't be very difficult. Around 15 members of my brother's friend suddenly became jews and now they live in Israel.
Any Jewish person around the world can move to Israel and become a citizen. Unfortunately yes, that does mean kicking native Palestinians out of their homes.
I can't tell if Theo is joking or serious with some of these questions wow. But Bassem is amazing and deserves every platform! He is educating with so much lightness, transparency, and compassion! Thank you!
I never thought I could laugh while learning about such a heavy and complex topic like the Gaza conflict, but Bassem Youssef and Theo Von made it possible.

If you don’t mind me asking, how do you go about that? I can’t imagine what it is like to have family that disagree with you so strongly about such an emotionally driven issue?
You are brave and lovely for standing up for HUMAN rights over religious beliefs or indoctrination. ❤

I would say that while the UK has a general political divide that is growing increasingly emulative of that in the US (Labour vs Conservative mirroring Democrat vs Republican) Scotland specifically is rather politically homogenous. Goes without saying it is a generally left-wing country, but as you will likely know the favourite pasttime of us on the left is arguing with each other!

Youd be "canceled" for having either option honestly

The fact that Israel has to pay bribes to our politicians, almost all of them from both major parties through AIPAC was enough for me to never trust Israel. I mean should that not be a VERY BIG red flag to see why one side, presumably the righteous and God's chosen people had to pay so much to spread its lies? Many people might be seeing the reality from Oct 7th, but some of us knew Israel's role in King David Hotel bombings, Lavon Affair, USS Liberty, and many hospitals and worship places they have bombed. They always look to start a war by planning attacks and then blaming the other side.
It takes courage and intelligence to switch one's paradigm. Respect.
I can’t really say I support Palestine because they’ve never really been able to form a government but I don’t support Israel and the land grabs either
@@dingus6317 they had a government called the PLO.

“If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?”

I'm surprised that this topic was news to anyone. Either way you have to remember that you are listening to a biased point of view from Bassem. He leaves out details to further his agenda like anyone else would. And Theo notoriously doesn't ask counter questions to very important statements. He just agrees. Like when Bassem said that most/all of the brutal violence on oct 7th was fabricated fake news. Well there is plenty video of that brutal violence, not decapitated babies, that was the truth. But there is video of the mass slaughter, r*pe, humiliation and parading of naked dead young jewish women for example. Which was not mentioned by Bassem naturally, and Theo didn't question that. It comes across like the whole event was a lie.
LOL delusional
there are a lot
He is right, everything should be able to be talked about without fear of being canceled.
Dear Bassem, Thank you so much for humanizing Muslims, Arabs, Middle Easterners for Americans. I, an American, have lived in Morocco for many years and am treated with kindness and warmth.

As a Christian woman who was raised in the church, I was never aware of what "Christian zionism" was or that I was taught that by pastors growing up. After Candace owens podcast I went down a rabbit hole, now this podcast has blown me away & is something I needed to hear. I support Jews and I also support Palestine. Now knowing what I thought about Israel & this traumatic situation was wrong. Thank you Theo for doing this podcast
I respect your courage to question your beliefs and admit dogma. It's great wisdom and indeed a virtue of Christ-like quality.
Palestine Jewish Colonization association=to colonization Palestine bring all Jews to one place so Palestinian can be kick and become minority
Why would you support Israel??
you can support Jews and Palestine at the same time without being contradictory. Jews have lived in Muslim dominant Palestine mutually peaceful & respectful since the beginning of recorded history, back to Canaanite biblical era. Zionism is where all of the terrorism is rooted. All of it. Zionism is British created occupation. Look up Jews Against Zionism

Thank you so much theo for having Bassem on your show. People really don't understand what is going on in palestine and that it's been under occupation since 1948...
Yeah but Israel has only been occupying it since 67

1.2 million views, thank you for talking about this.
Should be more
Theo, you’ve done something appreciated by millions around the world.
This has made me more hopeful for Palestine than almost anything I've seen in the last 10 months. Thank you Theo, for being a real listener, critical thinker, and even skeptic.
No, the protests are also helping a lot.

Theo, the children of Gaza deserve to not be forgotten
And the children of Israel

I am so grateful to see you speaking to these men lately! This guy knows what he is talking about. I can see how hungry you are to really learn about these things. You have a real gift brother
56:50 Theo mistaking Hezbollah for Hasbulla is low key the funniest part of this podcast 😂
Hahaha
Lmfao
Wait there’s a difference!? I thought they were talking about that little guy this whole time
they sound so similar sometimes i be getting mixed up without context
“That’s where he lives?” Lmao
Bassem Youssef is a decent human and I am thankful that Theo took the time to have this conversation.
Bassem is ok with China taking over killing Tibetans and Uyghur as long as it's not Israel. Talk about double standards.
great interviewer who actually wants to learn, love the way he asked questions that may seem simple but many ppl who are totally clueless about what’s happening still have them👏
My respect for Theo shot up when he was talking with Stavvy and he said “if anyone says ‘Free’ anything, they probably need help”
Exactly, it's a cry for help.
Like.. psychological?
I think it was with Matt Mccusker he said that.
unless they're offering something. I got a free gas stove & oven off the side of the street once
Yeah well being a victim is a profession nowadays, coming with all kinds of benefits. Its not as simple as that
The way Bassem Youssef answers Theo's question about what is Zionism is actually amazing, I'm so glad someone is saying it
It’s also a great question, to be so blunt and simple about it. Because it’s not a simple answer and it can mean and be interpreted completely differently depending on your political or cultural beliefs.
Zionism is a just cause. We should all be Zionists.
It’s not just, it’s just the denial of human nature.
@Kimura117 if racist colonialism is just to you, then maybe you might have to rethink your ideology 🤷♂️

For 40 years I haven't been able to get answers to what went on in Israel. Two hours with Bassem explains more than enough. Free Palestine.
I was already lucky to get answers 14 years ago and thatswhy I don't need to rely on fanatical one-sided liars like Bassem.
There is someone who knows his people and what precisely he is talking about as the first-born privileged son. His name is Mosab Hassan Youssef.
May I ask, why you have a troll photo, as a 40+ year old man?

What did he lie about?

Amazing episode. This was fascinating. The fact that Theo did not know and had to listen and ask basic questions made it even better.
Huge respect for doing this interview! Amazing Bassem!
💔♥️♥️♥️✊ from Siberian (in Armenia from 2022, because of the Ukrainian war)
Bassem Youssef is a real hero, spending his past 10 months of his life repeating the same and educating America
He's a Jew hating maniac.
lying to america -- repeated exposure to lies makes you believe them - get out of your echo chamber - you are being radicalized.
Bassem simply and unequivocally just relays the truth for the whole world. He's is a man with conviction ❤😊
With only 1.3 million views in one month, this video truly deserves triple that amount.

Bassam is someone who you need in the world, a comedian who is insanely smart and educated to bring humor to a serious topic. "My wife used my children as human shields, so I couldnt get to her" was brilliant on Piers.
But he is ok with China taking over killing Tibetans, Uyghurs and Hong Kong as long as it's not Israel. talk about double standard 👎
He sure does know how to use comedy and wit to enable his vile positions to go down easier
Yeah what a great position joking about what Hamas does all the time

Glad to hear from Bassem on your podcast, Theo. So many are afraid of even speaking about Palestine and we need to hear the voices of people who support Palestinians if anything is going to change for them!
Theo not knowing who Anthony Blinken was is a peak ‘Murica moment
😂😂😂😂😂😂
They own America these isrealis .The Americans gotta wake up the Arabs Muslims been on the side of Christianity the whole time think about it why did isreal get created in 1948 and since Hollywood it’s been like what 75 - 100 years ago ? Seems like since the Zionist isreali Hollywood owners of America been pushing this demonizing of Muslims Arabs on all ameircan movies and shows just a push to hate us . Than I go back in 2003 when America went to war in Iraq .. found out it was isreal who pushed America to do it . Holy fuck these guys are untouchable. It’s way to out of hand they openly killing real semtic people in Palestine & trying to use the holocaust card at same time .they doing genocide to Palestinians WOW EVEN A 3 legged dog in India would understand this
To be honest, I’ve always considered myself a nerd and bookworm, but I didn’t know who Blinken was until I began paying more attention to how our government participated in this horror show.
@@zaraloveskoda to me your are just slowly becoming a republican , that’s what happens when you start to care 🥲🤷🏻♂️
But was Theo really wrong that Blinken works for Israel? 🤷🏻♀️
Theo ... Don't be afraid of spreading the truth ... Keep it up ... This video could save generations to come in Palestine
Could save generations around the world you mean
I’m a new Theo Von fan and I have to say, as a Palestinian this conversation healed a very small part of my very broken heart
Nothing against Theo, i like him and think he's really funny but Bassem is one of the last people i expected to see on his show. Massive respect. Bassem did an amazing job of explaining the situation to somebody who didn't know much about it.
He didn't even know who Blinken is 😮
@@humaafandi8894That's crazy! Fair play to Theo for doing this. Considering he didn't know who Blinken is it must have been a lot to take in.
Misleading comment also good 😂
@@muhjar5226Misleading comment? Sorry but youve lost me.
I seen a Louis Theroux documentary about Israel years ago and it was shocking. It showed an estate agent basically harassing the Palestinians out of their homes. Some were afraid to leave their homes because if they did a Jewish family would move in. This was over 10 years ago in the West bank. It made me do a ton research and reading. Everything Bassem says is true unfortunately.
Huge respect to you and to all jewish people standing up and saying ‘not in our name’ we all stand together against injustice towards all, jews, palestinians, muslims alike , we are stronger together ♥️♥️♥️
Yeah. Some of the biggest anti zionists are jewish people. They want to divide us and make this a racial issue. Its not, we are united against racial hatred and genocide alike.
Did you see a documentary about Hamas and Hezballah? It was not shocking?
@@semsemeini7905 boring

Well said Bassem.. Thank you for being so articulate and so vocal about it... The way you put your argument is an eye opener. Theo represents many who knows not much about the history of it all and your approach is elaborative, simple and really educative! Proud of you!!
Thanks for letting him explain and share the story of long term genocide with such an open mind and curiosity. Bassem you are a great story teller, and thanks for sharing this! I am north african and occupation in Palestine is something that they teach you as a kid at home. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 !
do they also teach you that hundred thousands of Arab Jews were expelled from all Muslim countries after 1948?
I think you were fed with Jew hatred all your life.
Why start 1948.... Islam was created 1400 years ago. Judaism has been around for 3500 years. Who's land was it before the 1940's?
Palestinians
What they teach in Muslim countries about Palestine is a very one-sided and biased story.
More often than not it is inciting blind hatred and dehumanizing Israelis. The result we saw last Octobre. In all Muslim countries and communities they celebrated the death of Israeli civilians inclusive children. Even on European streets.
The indoctrination is that deep that most of them don't even dare to have a look at the facts from the other side.
Someone who would present Israels facts - like Bassem presents Palestines facts in the West - would not survive in any Muslim country.

I am from Tajikistan, its a small country in Central Asia. And there many so called jews who left my country and flew to Israel. Israeli government helped them a lot, taught them language, gave them job etc. I said “so called jews” because some of those people didn’t know that they were ethnical jews. Many generations of them were living in my country. And some of them considered themselves muslims. But when they got opportunity to go for better life they just took it. That happens all over the world.
The question is, why a random guy from small country in Central Asia can fly to Israel, take a passport and replace a Palestinian man who lived there just because he has some jewish roots?
Very interesting
Wait a minute, all these benefits if I claim jewish roots??
WHO DO I CALL??
Good question. I love Kyrgyzstan btw hope to visit Tajikistan one day.
@@AJ5 go to their embassy or use google. It shouldn't be very difficult. Around 15 members of my brother's friend suddenly became jews and now they live in Israel.
Any Jewish person around the world can move to Israel and become a citizen. Unfortunately yes, that does mean kicking native Palestinians out of their homes.
This guy is like an unstoppable dark humor specialist. He’s lived the dark and chooses humor.
yeah he blew the socks off of piers w his very dark humor playing him on and on and on. piers couldn't read him at the start. hilarious!

I can't tell if Theo is joking or serious with some of these questions wow. But Bassem is amazing and deserves every platform! He is educating with so much lightness, transparency, and compassion! Thank you!
Much respect for not running any ads during either of these two videos. Would have been really distasteful but not many would have thought about that.
I never thought I could laugh while learning about such a heavy and complex topic like the Gaza conflict, but Bassem Youssef and Theo Von made it possible. Their blend of humor and information made this video both engaging and educational. Thank you for making this difficult subject more understandable and for bringing some much-needed lightness to it.
Fantastic job, both of you! ❤
Theo, you deserve an award for your journalism. This is one of the most important interviews of your life and the world. I say this whole heartedly. Thank you thank you for giving this topic the platform it desperately needs. The people in Gaza are being annihilated and we need people of your stature to help educate the public. Very few people with your level of following are this brave!
Great post.
Theo is doing more than our own government to understand the conflict.
Oh they understand!It’s all about 💰💰💰and power.Psychopaths 😈
understand? You think your government is trying to "understand"? It CREATES and FUNDS the conflict!
I am 1 hour in. This one's is captivating. Cheers Bassem.
