@steiner554one of the Arab leaders openly admitted their ambition was not to get a Palestinian state, that the idea of " Palestinians" was made up and what they were really aiming for was to abolish the state of Israel and get rid of the Jews. ie, its not about the Land so much as about hating the Jews.
Douglas Murray is incredibly eloquent, well-spoken, and thought-provoking that he can dismantle you so completely all while doing it politely yet viciously.
She never mentions that the climate change is caused by overpopulation and much too highly developed industrializion. Only the effects - never the causes.
If you're a warrior in medieval Japan and if your leader dies, you would wander around the land looking for another person to affix your loyalty to. That's what these people are doing. Well stated Douglas.
These young people lack the honor. He's Referring to Ronin. Masterless Samurai who still abided by the code of Bushido with honor and integrity as individuals in between doing odd jobs as swords for hire and searching for a Daimiyo.

Thank God, I’ve found someone else who knows what’s going on. I was beginning to lose hope,reading through the comments and everyone saying yeah they’re all stupid. I’m like no,they’re not,hey know exactly what they’re doing.
Lesbians for free Palestine ( in the background) is also an oxymoron.How many lesbians or gay married couples might there be in Gaza? Can anyone give me even one that is still alive?
Its not the matter of how many gays and lesbians are there in Gaza, what matters is to distinguish between right and wrong. Whole world is watching how Isreal is doing genocide there. All the people who have humanity and compassion for others are supporting the Palestinian cause as they are not blind. People like the ones in video are just nothing, spewing out venom.
@@mistyrose3042not a genocide. If you really care for palestine you should protest against hamas and ask for the release of hostages and surrender of them (they are terrorist btw in case you forgot) they also steal the aid of the civilian. Where is your empathy and "humanity" for the people of israel and the civilian of gaza being oppressed by hamas ? Why do you support terror ?! Need to think more

Greta has Aspergergers which on lies on mild end of the Autism Spectrum Disorder. It’s a very interesting condition and one of its features that people with the disorder often have a passion on something that almost obsesses them . If this happens early on life then parents often think have a super intelligent or gifted child .They are often very high functioning. It could said however , that putting a child on path such as this is a kind of child abuse. After watching the very first clip of Greta , this is exactly what I thought and was not in least bit surprised to learn that she had the condition. People with the condition, like others with disabilities are vulnerable and risk exploitation.
I work in the field of Autism Spectrum Disorder and other than the fact we no longer use the term Asperger’s, you are bang on correct. The intense obsessions are just part of their profile and are often mistaken for being cognitively advanced.

I would say Israel and its Zionists are like kids with limited historic and reality comprehension. See how you can say that about her and it’s ok. I say the same about Israel and can hear antisemite coming out of someone’s mouth.
When an autistic child gets an idea in their head or put into their head it becomes an obsession, and I understand that probably more than most having raised an autistic son. Even giving him the basics of right and wrong made him obsess about making every one in school treat him how he was treated at home, he became the moral police. And this is what I see happening here.
As someone who is on the milder end of the spectrum, I definitely agree with you. While I have obsessive interests, I’ve always been one to look at everything from all angles. I have never gotten attached to or obsessed with ideologies, identities, etc. What I see with a lot of people on the spectrum is that they get extremely attached to identities and ideologies and very rigid ways of thinking, which the far left exploits. To use one example, should they buy into the leftist notion that everything is a battle between oppressor and oppressed, someone on the spectrum would be so rigid in its application there tends to be no room for nuance. This is also why so many young adults on the spectrum are now convinced they are trans; if they can’t fit themselves neatly into an “identity” they will ruminate about it relentlessly rather than accepting that your biological sex does not have to match your preferred activities, dress style, etc.
I doubt she is, speaking as an uncle to an autistic kid All I can conclude is she has developed an ego that is as proportional to her head, as her head is to the rest of her body. All the while having a brain filled with the Holy Scripture of West Hatred
When I was a kid, Fads were frisbees, the Bay City Rollers and 10 speed bikes. Now it's anger, nihilism and self loathing all in the name of..... equality? or whadevas. A feeble bunch of adult toddlers.
People with her form of autism tend to be laser-focussed to the point of obsession on a small number of topics that interest them. That much makes sense. What doesn't make sense is that she knows almost nothing about the topics she's interested in.
The United Nations CC invention Darling “Greta” wakes up to a perfect world, "Save the Planet, ban all petroleum products"
Poor Greta. Life without petroleum and petroleum based products. One crisp winter morning in Sweden, a cute little girl named Greta woke up to a perfect world, one where there were no petroleum products ruining the earth. She tossed aside her cotton sheet and wool blanket and stepped out onto a dirt floor covered with willow bark that had been pulverized with rocks. “What’s this?” she asked. “Pulverized willow bark,” replied her fairy godmother. “What happened to the carpet?” she asked. “The carpet was nylon, which is made from butadiene and hydrogen cyanide, both made from petroleum,” came the response. Greta smiled, acknowledging that adjustments are necessary to save the planet, and moved to the sink to brush her teeth where instead of a toothbrush, she found a willow, mangled on one end to expose wood fibre bristles. “Your old toothbrush?” noted her godmother, “Also nylon.” “Where’s the water?” asked Greta. “Down the road in the canal,” replied her godmother, Just make sure you avoid water with cholera in it.” “Why’s there no running water?” Greta asked, becoming a little peevish. “Well,” said her godmother, who happened to teach engineering at MIT, “Where do we begin?” There followed a long monologue about how sink valves need elastomer seats and how copper pipes contain copper, which has to be mined and how it’s impossible to make all-electric earth-moving equipment with no gear lubrication or tires and how ore has to be smelted to a make metal, and that’s tough to do with only electricity as a source of heat, and even if you use only electricity, the wires need insulation, which is petroleum-based, and though most of Sweden’s energy is produced in an environmentally friendly way because of hydro and nuclear, if you do a mass and energy balance around the whole system, you still need lots of petroleum products like lubricants and nylon and rubber for tires and asphalt for filling potholes and wax and iPhone plastic and elastic to hold your underwear up while operating a copper smelting furnace and . . . “What’s for breakfast?” interjected Greta, whose head was hurting. "Fresh, range-fed chicken eggs,” replied her godmother. “Raw.” “How so, raw?” inquired Greta. “Well, . . .” And once again, Greta was told about the need for petroleum products like transformer oil and scores of petroleum products essential for producing metals for frying pans and in the end was educated about how you can’t have a petroleum-free world and then cook eggs. Unless you rip your front fence up and start a fire and carefully cook your egg in an orange peel like you do in Boy Scouts. Not that you can find oranges in Sweden anymore. “But I want poached eggs like my Aunt Tilda makes,” lamented Greta. “Tilda died this morning,” the godmother explained. “Bacterial pneumonia.” “What?!” interjected Greta. “No one dies of bacterial pneumonia! We have penicillin.” “Not anymore,” explained godmother “The production of penicillin requires chemical extraction using isobutyl acetate, which, if you know your organic chemistry, is petroleum-based. Lots of people are dying, which is problematic because there’s not any easy way of disposing of the bodies since backhoes need hydraulic oil and crematoriums can’t really burn many bodies using as fuel Swedish fences and furniture, which are rapidly disappearing - being used on the black market for roasting eggs and staying warm.” This represents only a fraction of Greta’s day, a day without microphones to exclaim into and a day without much food, and a day without carbon-fibre boats to sail in, but a day that will save the planet. Tune in tomorrow when Greta needs a root canal and learns how Novocain is synthesized.
This demonstrates one point very well: these activists don't care about a cause, they just enjoy spending their time protesting. Sad, really, they would be better off spending their time at school learning things.
That should be nice.. tho its never about jews, its about democracy and the values we have in europe (from Christianity!) and Islam. We have our great lands in Europe b/c we live by those rules, and we evolved.. Islam has never, its all about this.
@@KattLa-gz1cs Islam is the most evil and destructive ideology to ever be created, and is the most “retrograde force” that was ever created, as Churchill said, so it was made to never evolve or allow any growth. I am an ex-Muslim, so I know what I’m talking about.

Let's imagine she was campaigning for polio vaccines. Would she then be chanting "no polio vaccines on occupied land"? It's just an absurd mash-up of slogans, and I say that as someone who thinks global warming is a real problem.
Maybe Greta should go talk to hamas and protest see how long she is dressed and unharmed before being taking hostage & abused like the people hamas have hostage now.
I love the activists who still wear the “masks” to cover their identities. Respect to the ones who have the balls to show their faces, no matter what cause they’re for ✊
It is amazing how through history people have used young girls to push agendas, seeing Madonnas and creating shrines to Joan of Arc. There is something about the intensity of a young girl who projects the sincerity of whatever ideology they are pushing in a way that an adult cannot
Exactly. 350 years ago women were burnt as witches, often accused by a young girl who could not be questioned. History is full of this, as you points out. But histories lessons-learned has a tendency to be forgotten.
Her parents manufactured her fame. Why did a film crew follow a 15year old girl who was skipping school to sit and protest from day one on the off chance it eventuates into something. Because she’s the daughter of a celebrity & an investor in renewables with political ties and they funded it all.
I don’t think a lot people know what they’re protesting for.

When there is no reason the only substitute is power
When an autistic child gets an idea in their head or put into their head it becomes an obsession, and I understand that probably more than most having raised an autistic son. Even giving him the basics of right and wrong made him obsess about making every one in school treat him how he was treated at home, he became the moral police. And this is what I see happening here.
Totally agree. And I have professional experience.
Totally agree, I work with autistic young people.
As someone who is on the milder end of the spectrum, I definitely agree with you.
While I have obsessive interests, I’ve always been one to look at everything from all angles. I have never gotten attached to or obsessed with ideologies, identities, etc.
What I see with a lot of people on the spectrum is that they get extremely attached to identities and ideologies and very rigid ways of thinking, which the far left exploits.
To use one example, should they buy into the leftist notion that everything is a battle between oppressor and oppressed, someone on the spectrum would be so rigid in its application there tends to be no room for nuance. This is also why so many young adults on the spectrum are now convinced they are trans; if they can’t fit themselves neatly into an “identity” they will ruminate about it relentlessly rather than accepting that your biological sex does not have to match your preferred activities, dress style, etc.
She's not at all autistic.
I doubt she is, speaking as an uncle to an autistic kid
All I can conclude is she has developed an ego that is as proportional to her head, as her head is to the rest of her body. All the while having a brain filled with the Holy Scripture of West Hatred
When I was a kid, Fads were frisbees, the Bay City Rollers and 10 speed bikes.
Now it's anger, nihilism and self loathing all in the name of..... equality? or whadevas.
A feeble bunch of adult toddlers.
Maybe this is what happened in Germany prior WW2, ie, the youth had little in personal things and were easy to recuit into nazism.
As a Scot I wish to apologise deeply for the Bay City Rollers.
Stunted toddllers because an ipad or phone was put in their hands from the start.
Wasn't Sean Penn in The Bay City Rollers? Do you care?

In Sweden she’s viewed as a nutcase!
Absolutely she has not got a single clue what's going on. Shame really. Not a clue.
She knows exactly what she's doing.
People with her form of autism tend to be laser-focussed to the point of obsession on a small number of topics that interest them. That much makes sense. What doesn't make sense is that she knows almost nothing about the topics she's interested in.
The United Nations CC invention Darling “Greta” wakes up to a perfect world,
"Save the Planet, ban all petroleum products"
Poor Greta. Life without petroleum and petroleum based products.
One crisp winter morning in Sweden, a cute little girl named Greta woke up to a perfect world, one where there were no petroleum products ruining the earth. She tossed aside her cotton sheet and wool blanket and stepped out onto a dirt floor covered with willow bark that had been pulverized with rocks.
“What’s this?” she asked.
“Pulverized willow bark,” replied her fairy godmother.
“What happened to the carpet?” she asked.
“The carpet was nylon, which is made from butadiene and hydrogen cyanide, both made from petroleum,” came the response.
Greta smiled, acknowledging that adjustments are necessary to save the planet, and moved to the sink to brush her teeth where instead of a toothbrush, she found a willow, mangled on one end to expose wood fibre bristles.
“Your old toothbrush?” noted her godmother, “Also nylon.”
“Where’s the water?” asked Greta.
“Down the road in the canal,” replied her godmother, Just make sure you avoid water with cholera in it.”
“Why’s there no running water?” Greta asked, becoming a little peevish.
“Well,” said her godmother, who happened to teach engineering at MIT, “Where do we begin?”
There followed a long monologue about how sink valves need elastomer seats and how copper pipes contain copper, which has to be mined and how it’s impossible to make all-electric earth-moving equipment with no gear lubrication or tires and how ore has to be smelted to a make metal, and that’s tough to do with only electricity as a source of heat, and even if you use only electricity, the wires need insulation, which is petroleum-based, and though most of Sweden’s energy is produced in an environmentally friendly way because of hydro and nuclear, if you do a mass and energy balance around the whole system, you still need lots of petroleum products like lubricants and nylon and rubber for tires and asphalt for filling potholes and wax and iPhone plastic and elastic to hold your underwear up while operating a copper smelting furnace and . . .
“What’s for breakfast?” interjected Greta, whose head was hurting.
"Fresh, range-fed chicken eggs,” replied her godmother. “Raw.”
“How so, raw?” inquired Greta.
“Well, . . .” And once again, Greta was told about the need for petroleum products like transformer oil and scores of petroleum products essential for producing metals for frying pans and in the end was educated about how you can’t have a petroleum-free world and then cook eggs. Unless you rip your front fence up and start a fire and carefully cook your egg in an orange peel like you do in Boy Scouts. Not that you can find oranges in Sweden anymore.
“But I want poached eggs like my Aunt Tilda makes,” lamented Greta.
“Tilda died this morning,” the godmother explained. “Bacterial pneumonia.”
“What?!” interjected Greta. “No one dies of bacterial pneumonia! We have penicillin.”
“Not anymore,” explained godmother “The production of penicillin requires chemical extraction using isobutyl acetate, which, if you know your organic chemistry, is petroleum-based. Lots of people are dying, which is problematic because there’s not any easy way of disposing of the bodies since backhoes need hydraulic oil and crematoriums can’t really burn many bodies using as fuel Swedish fences and furniture, which are rapidly disappearing - being used on the black market for roasting eggs and staying warm.”
This represents only a fraction of Greta’s day, a day without microphones to exclaim into and a day without much food, and a day without carbon-fibre boats to sail in, but a day that will save the planet.
Tune in tomorrow when Greta needs a root canal and learns how Novocain is synthesized.
@@Avocado740 Yes she wants to rule the world and abolish democracy.
@@Avocado740 Yes she is earning a lot from China to sabotage our free world.
The age of stupidity is certainly upon us. Douglas Murray is always worth listening to. Thank you.
This demonstrates one point very well: these activists don't care about a cause, they just enjoy spending their time protesting. Sad, really, they would be better off spending their time at school learning things.
I agree - go get a real job vs. lecturing others. She's beyond annoying,
Thank you Douglas.
International Women's' Day: not a word about the young woman given 75 lashes in a Tehran courtroom for not wearing a head scarf...WTF ???
Damn I was hoping it would be a 100.
Yes, it's funny how women who are actually being oppressed don't seem to matter to the left.
Or the 12 yo being raped in Vienna raped by 14 refugees for half a year.
They're funded by them so they won't say anything
It doesn’t suit their agenda to talk about the ”misshaps” in the middle east and north/east africa…
You should talk to Mahyar Tousi..he's a great supporter of Israel and Jewish people
That should be nice.. tho its never about jews, its about democracy and the values we have in europe (from Christianity!) and Islam. We have our great lands in Europe b/c we live by those rules, and we evolved.. Islam has never, its all about this.
@@KattLa-gz1cs So this channel isn't about Jews? Errr ok
@@KattLa-gz1cs Islam is the most evil and destructive ideology to ever be created, and is the most “retrograde force” that was ever created, as Churchill said, so it was made to never evolve or allow any growth. I am an ex-Muslim, so I know what I’m talking about.

@@thetopcat8946 it’s about a number of issues, not just “the Jews”! It’s very weird that you would say it like that to begin with.
Politics a la carte ... Brilliant Douglas Murray
Let Geta live for a year or so in either Palestine, Syria or Iran so she'll have a point of comparisson.
Let's imagine she was campaigning for polio vaccines.
Would she then be chanting "no polio vaccines on occupied land"?
It's just an absurd mash-up of slogans, and I say that as someone who thinks global warming is a real problem.
😂😂Land rights for gay whales 😂
Climate change is a real problem
Just saying even though off topic
That she says it is bad. That the rest of the kiddos in the crowd repeat after her us problematic.
EXCELLENT ANALOGY BY DOUGLAS MURRY ❤
Your absolutely right, they operate on emotion instead of using their brains
"Ignorance is strength"
George Orwell's writings seem more and more like predictions!
A guide book for the elite. Just 40 years to late.
They were predictions,if you read George Orwell it's obvious.
All logic turned on its head, especially the last 4 years .
Fallout is manna
" Profound stupidity . " Exactly .
Please stop gifting this child any air time!!!! Thankyou xxxx
Douglas Murray is correct. Thank you Douglas.
He was bullied in school which is why he picks on little girls
Maybe Greta should go talk to hamas and protest see how long she is dressed and unharmed before being taking hostage & abused like the people hamas have hostage now.
Come on, even Hamas thugs have beauty standards.
Maybe these people should take a guided tour of the tunnels?
I love the activists who still wear the “masks” to cover their identities. Respect to the ones who have the balls to show their faces, no matter what cause they’re for ✊
It is amazing how through history people have used young girls to push agendas, seeing Madonnas and creating shrines to Joan of Arc. There is something about the intensity of a young girl who projects the sincerity of whatever ideology they are pushing in a way that an adult cannot
Exactly. 350 years ago women were burnt as witches, often accused by a young girl who could not be questioned. History is full of this, as you points out. But histories lessons-learned has a tendency to be forgotten.
How embarrassing for her father
Sadly her parents support her
Patents 90% of the problem
Her shenanigans have garnered her a million pounds. Her parents must be proud. You have to wrestle a mic from her once she has it.
Her parents manufactured her fame. Why did a film crew follow a 15year old girl who was skipping school to sit and protest from day one on the off chance it eventuates into something. Because she’s the daughter of a celebrity & an investor in renewables with political ties and they funded it all.
You're kidding aren't you? Her mother and father engendered all this!
We hereby declare the end of the war against stupidity. We were defeated....
What is the microphone she is using made from?
