Wow, this video is really popular 🤩 Our biggest one yet. It has definitely struck a chord with people. Dan is chuffed as well 😃 If Pamela were to interview Dan again, what would you like to ask him?
I enjoyed listening to Ben-Dror Yemini's "Palestinian Lies"...I do recomnend it. Douglas Murrays talk with "Son of Hamas" is quite spot on. Mosab is about as blunt as it gets.
I totally agree with you, I'm in the thinking category.... I am not Jewish, but I am a Zionist, I do not wish to see Israel become another failed Islamic state like, Sudan Yemen Syria Iran Iraq Somalia Lebanon Sudan Afghanistan Pakistan. ...etc, I think in total there are 51 failed Islamic states...I see the beautiful place those Jews have built out of the desert, and i see what Hamas has built , they built tunnels and bought bombs to kill the Jews . Google the top Countries in science and technology, Israel is 4th in the world...
This man is erudite, brilliant, and truthful. What is incredible is that he’s also communicating in his third or fourth language. It is a pity that the world doesn’t have the intelligence and humility to listen and understand him.
Had no idea who this man was but within a minute I was trapped into listening. What a fascinating interview with an extremely smart and extremely pragmatic individual. Straight to the point. Absolutely zero BS.
I haven't a Jewish bone in my body, but I admire Israel a lot - it's a nation of survivors, builders, stoics, scholars and soldiers. They're what the west used to be before we went bad.
Well, you're thinking about the Israel of yesterday. Today, it no longer is in the entrepreneurial stage, led by intellgent people with a public purpose. It has now become like the U.S., led by low-intellect ego addicts, looking to get their fix.
So, you don't mind that they attacked and sunk our ship, the USS Liberty, to facilitate their ability to launch a first strike, which started the war of 1967?
the danger to liberalism is too much liberalism- and in current western liberal society to even entertain the idea that there are cultures with incompatible values, or god forbid, detrimental values auto-designates you as the worst evil. I've said similarly: I've met Afghanis whom I quite like, but as a generality, I don't want Afghanis living near me or even in the USA or Europe since a big part of their culture seems to result in things like the Taliban, subjugation of women, and life like some kind of Barbary States fever dream. The US can spend decades and untold fortunes and effort trying to "westernize" only to find out that "no, we quite like our tribes and Jezails"
He’s full of BS! It’s easy to say that they should have accepted a partition plan that gave to new comers (a minority of the population) who landed from the boat within the past 15-20 years, majority of the land. Imagine if the migrants landing on Italian shores in the last 10 years demanded a partition to establish their own state in Italy? Will Italians reject it? Of course! …… Utter rubbish spout by this man! Palestinians live under martial laws and that drives them nuts, as you would . Israel made itself clear that it doesn’t intended to cease control because it wants to confiscate their land.
Pissing your time away on TH-cam is like digging for gold. Most of the time you come away with nothing to show for it but holy moly what a chunk of pure gold I have stumbled upon with this interview!
Did you mean the part where he rants on about how much he'd like to genocide the Palestinians, ya know, just after the part where he accepts Israel is Palestinian land. Thats where I found gold. All this from someone who is supposed to be an academic!
@@vanessaouyang1220 if I left my house for 3,000 years I wouldn't expect my ancestors to "reclaim" it whenever feel like it. They put them in a prison camps, one of the most densely populated places on earth, when they get Humanitarian aid they get shot at! Open your eyes!
I admire his ability to accept this very difficult situation for Israel as a matter of fact and be positive, confident and constructive about the future. The best interview on the topic I’ve seen!
This is how we have lived in Israel for decades.. and also nowadays.. prospering between the wars. Israel are one of the top countries on the positivity scale.. and Dan knows how to express it perfectly in words Another thing is that we say we want peace because we are educated for peace, but after October 7th people realized that there is a big gap between their desire and the reality
It's important to understand mindsets within Israel and this narrator is an excellent communicator of Israel's modus operandi past present and future. That knowledge is very valuable, and the fact that the interview lasted for over an hour was also laudable because it gave the speaker more scope to explain his perspective. All in all, extremely enlightening.
the right of return only given to the jew and not to any displaced palestinian. apartheid road only for israelis jew and not even palestinian jew. when your country face existential threat every day of the year. its not possible to build anything. ben gavir dance in a wedding celebrating the death of a baby and whole family when they burn them alive in their apartment. and release the cirminal by say "he is a nobel man" such is the jew legal system, that the jew are rule by jewish law and palestinian are rule under marshal law, so no need for any evidence or charge to put them in prison. all these while settler expand their israelis land everyday with death of palestinian.
if Russia didn't give out passport in Crimea and then build a blockade to stop ppl from going out and collapse the economy and call any one dare to resist a terrorist. it would have the same outcome
He just means that you can't have a spirit and culture that wants to help and include..Include people who don't want to be helped or included, because they are brought up by snakes who are just viscous, resentful and full of hate ,not unlike the ignorant mobs that form out of angry individuals looking to blast out their hate and cowardly direct it to what ever successful minority may be crossing their way
Absolutely fantastic interview! I have learnt so much about the the Middle East and the current situation there in such a short time. We need more people with such a great mind as his.
What specific qualities or attributes do you believe make individuals like Dan Schueftan valuable contributors to discussions about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, even in light of remarks that some might find inflammatory or racist? How do you perceive his expertise as contributing to your understanding of the conflict?
@@Firguy Any conflict requires clarity especially moral clarity. Why one is fighting? What one is fighting for? So one should have a clear purpose for a war/battle/conflict. Look at the US/British/Western interventions in the last 25 years. Afghanistan, Serbia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Ukraine, Libya. There is no clarity in western countries as to what they are fighting for? Are they trying to change the culture, politics of the enemy nation, like they did in WW 2 with Japan and Germany? No they didn’t do this. They had no such plans? There is no ideological or moral clarity. All these wars were moral quagmires and ended up as quagmires on the battlefield as well. From defeating the enemy to becoming champions of girls education and building sewerage systems. All these wars were mired in confusion. What this gentleman-if he has any any say on the Israel side- is this clarity- Don’t take any pressure from any side- UN (where murderous dictators and democracies sit side by side as equals) don’t listen to UN. Nothing matters more than the safety and security of Israel citizens. He is open to dialogue and gives plenty of reaching out to the Palestrina side over the past decades, all to no avail. One has to believe in the side he is fighting for. That matters as much as the arms and ammunitions. Look at the Islamic Jihadis. This rag tag army of religious zealots who don’t have any major ammunition to fight with and yet have brought the whole world to its knees. They believe in their project. They can hijack your aeroplanes and knock your skyscrapers with the same. That’s the clearest example of belief in action. If there is any doubt you will give ground to the enemy. Also do have a look at the western intellectuals in press, on TV , in acedemia- the liberals are eager to shed tears for the Palestinian side- which in itself is not wrong - but few care to note that it is always the Palestinian side that initiates violence, who start the killings. When Israel responds, the Palestinians show their wounds wanting aid, food and sympathy. This is depravity. The gentleman sees through this.
@@avineishghai Do you think there might be differing perspectives on the sequence of events and responsibility for violence within the conflict? How does one's background or beliefs influence their interpretation of these actions?
@@Firguy 30000 people buried under the rubble on Gaza side don’t have a perspective, they are experiencing reality first hand. Similarly thousands of rockets fired on the Israeli civilians defines their reality - it is immaterial what perspective rest of the world including UN, you and I have sitting far away. Violence has to be dealt with first hand by hiding, attacking , running away and occasionally by wanting to have a dialogue and negotiation. BBC gave their perspective when a rocket fell on the Al Shifa hospital- without any means of knowing. Newspaper editors write about their perspective depending upon on whether they are from left or right of the political spectrum. Similarly with the hundreds of TV war reporters and in the digital media. If you and I have a fight we would both know who initiated violence and we can end it if we choose to or take it to the conclusion where one of us is not able to fight anymore. Situation with nations warring is not much different. Rest of the world has no business meddling here. Lot of people have sympathy for the weaker side but that doesn’t mean weaker side is the right side. The warring sides will stop when they have had enough. If we can’t persuade them to end it, let them see the consequences of their actions.
I am an Iranian dissident now living in the west and I could not agree more. I would say this is a regional malady. Why don’t Islamic countries prosper? There are 57 Muslim majority countries in the world.
As long as one is a human being he/she has the brains to do constructive things...... irrespective of the "religion" he belongs to. If however one follows his religion without asking pointed questions and just expects his "god" to help him.....then there is no hope.
Seems making treaties or cease fire would be impossible with these Oct 7 folks. They will only negotiate when on the verge of defeat... never if they are winning.

He sounds like a true racist. Israel displaced 700k Palestinians they need a state it’s not so much more complicated. Jon Stewart covered this on his show and he had a great idea: create a Palestinian state and give Israel a security pact.
@@alexsheppard153they did have their chance with the original deal and several other times but they blew it. After 7 wars and many provocations to Israel throughout the years, do u think Israel will give them the upper hand now? 🤷🏽
What specific aspects of Dan Schueftan's background or expertise do you think have shaped his understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Are there particular experiences or areas of study that you believe have been most influential in his analysis?
Sounds like experience in rhetorics and if he knows something about human nature he uses it to manipulate. One thing out of two he says is questionable, and I'm being generous, but it just makes sense if you have aleready accepted his point if view and don't question a thing.
I've heard people talk like a hood rat and articulate insightful and complex things. I've also heard people with a slow and thoughtful delivery speak pure nonsense. The ideas are the important part anyways. The style of delivery, is just a learned aesthetic. But I also agree that usually, we can tell when a person sounds thoughtful. I wouldn't rely on it as a rule, or even a useful generalization. Brilliant people can and are very often, misled. There wouldn't be so many brilliant people in different religions if intelligence always led to the same conclusions.
He’s obviously brilliant, brutally honest, & a beautiful beast. The only explanations for why he isn’t much more famous is his desire for anonymity or he has more important things to do. Regardless I’m in love
You don't want to let the Palestinians turn you into them meaning you don't want to let the Palestinians turn you to become Muslim. Islam is the problem that is preventing peace coming to Palestine.

I admire the Jewish people for their industry, fortitude, and sense of humour. Israel is a light in the darkness of the Middle East. May God protect them from their enemies.
To be able to commit atrocities against a group of other people you have to first convince everyone involved, even the bystanders, that these people are inferior, evil, …. And that your people are superior. Well done explaining this ongoing massacre that everybody can see now with their own eyes.
They are just trying to justify mental disorder, arrogance, and excessive self-love, to the point that you allow yourself to live your life normally on the ruins and blood of other people. By the way, whoever is doing this to us in the Middle East today will not hesitate for a moment to do it in the West. The whole point is that there is a convergence of interests currently, and this alliance will dissolve as soon as a balance appears in the Middle East @@boilingpasta879
I've been wondering for a long time who the Thomas Sowell of Israel might be and now I know: Dan Schueftan! My god, what clarity of thought, what grasp of history and what timeless wisdom flows from that man's mind. The latest addition to my bucket list is to shake that remarkable man's hand.
Why do you feel Schueftan's insight into the situation is accurate, despite the controversial nature of it? What specific qualities or aspects of his analysis do you find particularly compelling or convincing?
Massive thanks to Quillette for introducing me and so many other foreigners to all these wonderful and strikingly bright Israeli intellectuals! What a gift you are! ❤
The victim is the people who were expelled from their homes and then confined into ghettos and tormented over the last several decades. This guy is unbelievably racist
Except that there was no such thing, no behead babies, no babies burnt in ovens, no tortured children, no children strung up on washing lines, as has been admitted now by Israeli authorities. Also the allegations of mass rape is completely unfounded, there may have been one or two but there is no corroborating evidence, only a small number of witnesses alleged that from hundreds of witnesses, e.g. one witness who said he saw a rape was hiding in bushes with a group of people and none of the others who were with him confirmed that. This is also available from Israeli media. One glaring omission from the first responders and whoever dealt with the bodies was the complete lack of collection of forensic evidence for any of the re sexual violence, which is a dereliction of duty for any potential victims, DNA evidence is of course vital for genuine victims to have justice!
@@paulnejtek6588 "Protesters" because what we heard thw majority of them scream at anyone wanting to discuss the situation with them rationally was not worth their protestations as it just revealed their ignorance and brainwashing.

The reason for this is not Israel. The weakness of the countries of the region is the reason. How can you allow yourself to widen this scientific and military gap between you and the West to this point over the past 150 years? We know the West well, and our history with them is as long as , Russia , East Asia and the rest When you become weak, they will annihilate you en masse, exploit you in the worst way, and plant Israel and its brothers among you. The so-called Israel is not to blame for anything. They are just a tool that carries out what is dictated to them. The question is where are we? A country like Egypt can completely change the region in all aspects (culturally - scientifically - strategically). When Egypt falls ill, the entire Middle East becomes worthless We are the ones who blame ourselves for our weakness. The enemy, in any case, has a well-known history and has neither humanity nor mercy. Islamic extremists also have a major role, and are well used by the West, Israel, and even Russian intelligence services and others to implement their agenda in the region @@hus390

@@hus390 The Jews actually didn't get a majority of the land and a largeportion of what they did get was the Negev Desert which, at that time, was virtually non-arable, a hostile environment, and largely unoccupied. What a deal! But they made it work.
The small Latin inscription by Horace behind this remarkable man is illuminating. Kant proposed it as the motto of the Enlightenment. Sapere Aude (dare to know), indeed.
You have every right to be “arrogant”. Israel and the Jewish people across the world are brilliant, successful, good values, education, family etc. I’m not Jewish but I grew up in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood and feel blessed for having done so. All of my closest friends are Jewish and my first 3 boyfriends were Jewish (one was the son of a cantor and his parents were not thrilled) this was years ago, I’m 51 now, and we are still friends. “The Genius of Israel” by Dan Senor is next up on my reading list. I grew up wishing I was Jewish. I was one of few kids in school on Jewish holidays. But, I had a lovely Italian family that was pretty great. GO ISRAEL!!!!!
Something I always noticed was that Jewish Americans & Italian Americans were quite similar. I haven’t lived in America for 30 yrs but I hope it still applies
The greatest geopolitical interview I have ever watched and really listened to. I could not disagree with one word he said. I also found it strangely enjoyable - considering that he was talking about such a sad period of our history.
Only an uninformed weak minded person would say that a genocide is occurring in gaza . And it can be proven to be false with evidence . But everything about the so called" Palestinians" is based on lies and a false premise. But lies and propaganda will never change the facts or the history of this region. The irony is that the "Palestinians " are just pawns to be sacrificed by the radical religious islamic regime in iran. The arab world doesn't care about these Gazans or the fanatics in judea and sumaria . They hate Israel more than love their own people.
@@GassingsNeverAppened Genocide requires an intent to eradicate a people partly or totally which seems kinda absurd to put that on Israel, when they have allowed 2 million arabs most of them from Palestine to live in their country and the number has grown for several decades and they announce were they are gonna attack. I´m not supporting Netanyahu or his government, but throwing that term around isn´t gonna help anyone.
Mr Schueftan is absolutely right. unfortunately I had to study latin in school, but my snswer to the terror of Hamas is that I started to learn hebrew. I will stand with Israel. And I admire your courage, your humanity and your bravery.
This man is so smart and funny and humane as far as his common sense allows. Though he’d forever be calling me his idiot nephew I wish he was my Jewish uncle.
Constantly dehumanizes, unapologetically justifies killing civilians, doesn't seem to recognise that people are individuals at all and sees everything through their racist, group-think lens... "humane as far as his common sense allows". Agreed. He has nothing close to common sense, and a similarly negligible amount of humanity.
@@billyaxon The propaganda purposefully misleads because it misrepresents many of the people killed in Gaza as innocent. This is done by presenting groups of people killed by their characteristics instead of by their actions. For instance, it's easy to make people seem more sympathetic by presenting them as women and children first because most civilized people living in the west see women and children as primarily innocent, not perpetrators of violence. However, many of the women killed is Gaza are not like western women but are actively aiding their Hamas husbands/boyfriends/fathers/sons in waging war against jews. If a 17 year old 'child' firing a machine gun is killed by Isreal, should we we count them first as a child or first as a soldier that was killed? Did you learn much about the history of war in school? War involves the killing of both soldiers and civilians. If you were to making up a ranking to list every war/battle from the most focused on soldiers (ideal as far as war goes) to the highest ratio of civilians killed (worst type of war), where do you think the Palestinians involved in Oct 7 attacks would be on that ranking? Clearly, of the two groups Israel more more ethic in their war tactics than the Palestinians. You should relisten to this video from 9:21 to 14:00.
@@billyaxonHe’s a realist. Where are the gay pride parades in Palestine, where are the equal women’s and religious rights? He is speaking truth. They don’t value the same things we value.
@@raina4732 We value? I dont think you know what I value. I don't value regressive homophobic and patriarchal views.

Well done, so well done. A complex conflicting and common sense attitude to the conundrum that is Israel and its neighbors. (and life itself) I'll have to watch it again, so much to "unpack" Thank you very much for this.
Fantastic interview on so many levels. I especially love his emphasis on the fact that you cannot judge them with our value system because theirs really is different. I’ve been saying this for years. You have to look at the *actual* culture and history of a people and learn to understand their point of view, why that exists in their culture. In most cases I can think of offhand, this learning about the other culture will contribute to getting along better - but this assumes a shared fundamental type of value system. You also have to believe what people themselves say. When people tell you who they are, believe them. When they tell you what they plan to do, believe that, too.
Brilliant man, everyone please listen to this video, he should be in power but is smart enough to stay out of politics and help to change the Middle East for the better through his lectures and his life towards people who actually hear him out.
@@colincolincolinsheaYou mis-named that area. It was called West Bank when Jordan occupied it. Its true name is Judea and Samaria. The homelands of the Jews and Samaritans.

He’s full of BS! It’s easy to say that they should have accepted a partition plan that gave to new comers (a minority of the population) who landed from the boat within the past 15-20 years, majority of the land. Imagine if the migrants landing on Italian shores in the last 10 years demanded a partition to establish their own state in Italy? Will Italians reject it? Of course! …… Utter rubbish spout by this man! Palestinians live under martial laws and that drives them nuts, as you would . Israel made itself clear that it doesn’t intended to cease control because it wants to confiscate their land.
So what is your point?

I thought Douglas Murray was good on Human behaviour but Dan Schueftan is Douglas with old age experience. Brilliant interview.

Pissing your time away on TH-cam is like digging for gold. Most of the time you come away with nothing to show for it but holy moly what a chunk of pure gold I have stumbled upon with this interview!
Did you mean the part where he rants on about how much he'd like to genocide the Palestinians, ya know, just after the part where he accepts Israel is Palestinian land. Thats where I found gold. All this from someone who is supposed to be an academic!

“I don’t want to be contaminated by controlling them.” That is a perfect statement.
Indeed
One of many he made.
The world needs more people like this guy and they need to be in leadership positions or advisors to leader/ representatives
I admire his ability to accept this very difficult situation for Israel as a matter of fact and be positive, confident and constructive about the future.
The best interview on the topic I’ve seen!
A bomb on a floating condom is a firework. What are the zionists using?
This is how we have lived in Israel for decades.. and also nowadays.. prospering between the wars. Israel are one of the top countries on the positivity scale.. and Dan knows how to express it perfectly in words
Another thing is that we say we want peace because we are educated for peace, but after October 7th people realized that there is a big gap between their desire and the reality
It's important to understand mindsets within Israel and this narrator is an excellent communicator of Israel's modus operandi past present and future. That knowledge is very valuable, and the fact that the interview lasted for over an hour was also laudable because it gave the speaker more scope to explain his perspective. All in all, extremely enlightening.
I've never heard anyone in my lifetime speak so direct and honest on such controversial topics! This is so unique!
Honest? From the biggest liars the world has known?
Now THAT is funny.
@@bobmahnamahknobWhat part of his interview do you take issue with? I would say he gave his honest opinion, even if you or I may disagree with it.
Miles of tunnels but no sewers.
the right of return only given to the jew and not to any displaced palestinian. apartheid road only for israelis jew and not even palestinian jew. when your country face existential threat every day of the year. its not possible to build anything. ben gavir dance in a wedding celebrating the death of a baby and whole family when they burn them alive in their apartment. and release the cirminal by say "he is a nobel man" such is the jew legal system, that the jew are rule by jewish law and palestinian are rule under marshal law, so no need for any evidence or charge to put them in prison. all these while settler expand their israelis land everyday with death of palestinian.
Tunnels that were full of sewage. Sanitised by the children of Israel (IDF).
😂 ikr
they live in sewage, they don't need sewers
if Russia didn't give out passport in Crimea and then build a blockade to stop ppl from going out and collapse the economy and call any one dare to resist a terrorist. it would have the same outcome
A civilized and learned man. What a pleasure. Thanks, Quillette!
He is basically sayin, with much wit and chutzpah, that you can't be Mother Theresa living amongst Al Capone(s).
DING DING DING! PERFECT!
Mother Teresa was awful
Yeah, nah. I understand your sentiment, but Mother Teresa's a poor example for the purpose of contrast.
Yeah, but they're not Al Capone(ing) against other Al Capone(s) they are Columbus(ing) amongst Moctezuma(s)
He just means that you can't have a spirit and culture that wants to help and include..Include people who don't want to be helped or included, because they are brought up by snakes who are just viscous, resentful and full of hate ,not unlike the ignorant mobs that form out of angry individuals looking to blast out their hate and cowardly direct it to what ever successful minority may be crossing their way
“It is not their leaders it is their culture.Their people are worse than their leaders.” True
No wonder the rest of the Arab world will have nothing to do with the Palestinians .
They are trouble makers.!
Very true, and also being spread all over the world with predictable consequences
This sounds strikingly similar to the propaganda that was spread about Jews…
Absolutely fantastic interview! I have learnt so much about the the Middle East and the current situation there in such a short time. We need more people with such a great mind as his.
This guy is the best thing I've seen for a long time.
What a remarkable level of clarity! A true professional intellectual. People like him are more valuable than missiles.
What specific qualities or attributes do you believe make individuals like Dan Schueftan valuable contributors to discussions about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, even in light of remarks that some might find inflammatory or racist? How do you perceive his expertise as contributing to your understanding of the conflict?
I would say - as dangerous as missiles.
@@Firguy Any conflict requires clarity especially moral clarity. Why one is fighting? What one is fighting for? So one should have a clear purpose for a war/battle/conflict. Look at the US/British/Western interventions in the last 25 years. Afghanistan, Serbia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Ukraine, Libya. There is no clarity in western countries as to what they are fighting for? Are they trying to change the culture, politics of the enemy nation, like they did in WW 2 with Japan and Germany? No they didn’t do this. They had no such plans? There is no ideological or moral clarity. All these wars were moral quagmires and ended up as quagmires on the battlefield as well. From defeating the enemy to becoming champions of girls education and building sewerage systems. All these wars were mired in confusion. What this gentleman-if he has any any say on the Israel side- is this clarity- Don’t take any pressure from any side- UN (where murderous dictators and democracies sit side by side as equals) don’t listen to UN. Nothing matters more than the safety and security of Israel citizens. He is open to dialogue and gives plenty of reaching out to the Palestrina side over the past decades, all to no avail. One has to believe in the side he is fighting for. That matters as much as the arms and ammunitions. Look at the Islamic Jihadis. This rag tag army of religious zealots who don’t have any major ammunition to fight with and yet have brought the whole world to its knees. They believe in their project. They can hijack your aeroplanes and knock your skyscrapers with the same. That’s the clearest example of belief in action. If there is any doubt you will give ground to the enemy. Also do have a look at the western intellectuals in press, on TV , in acedemia- the liberals are eager to shed tears for the Palestinian side- which in itself is not wrong - but few care to note that it is always the Palestinian side that initiates violence, who start the killings. When Israel responds, the Palestinians show their wounds wanting aid, food and sympathy. This is depravity. The gentleman sees through this.
@@avineishghai Do you think there might be differing perspectives on the sequence of events and responsibility for violence within the conflict? How does one's background or beliefs influence their interpretation of these actions?
@@Firguy 30000 people buried under the rubble on Gaza side don’t have a perspective, they are experiencing reality first hand. Similarly thousands of rockets fired on the Israeli civilians defines their reality - it is immaterial what perspective rest of the world including UN, you and I have sitting far away. Violence has to be dealt with first hand by hiding, attacking , running away and occasionally by wanting to have a dialogue and negotiation. BBC gave their perspective when a rocket fell on the Al Shifa hospital- without any means of knowing. Newspaper editors write about their perspective depending upon on whether they are from left or right of the political spectrum. Similarly with the hundreds of TV war reporters and in the digital media. If you and I have a fight we would both know who initiated violence and we can end it if we choose to or take it to the conclusion where one of us is not able to fight anymore. Situation with nations warring is not much different. Rest of the world has no business meddling here. Lot of people have sympathy for the weaker side but that doesn’t mean weaker side is the right side. The warring sides will stop when they have had enough. If we can’t persuade them to end it, let them see the consequences of their actions.
I am an Iranian dissident now living in the west and I could not agree more. I would say this is a regional malady. Why don’t Islamic countries prosper? There are 57 Muslim majority countries in the world.
....and only one is(NOT)real, and it can't survive without suckling on America's teat.
As long as one is a human being he/she has the brains to do constructive things...... irrespective of the "religion" he belongs to.
If however one follows his religion without asking pointed questions and just expects his "god" to help him.....then there is no hope.
Seems making treaties or cease fire would be impossible with these Oct 7 folks. They will only negotiate when on the verge of defeat... never if they are winning.

When a person speaks from experience, and a deep understanding of human nature, he sounds like this man.
What specific aspects of Dan Schueftan's background or expertise do you think have shaped his understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Are there particular experiences or areas of study that you believe have been most influential in his analysis?
Sounds like experience in rhetorics and if he knows something about human nature he uses it to manipulate. One thing out of two he says is questionable, and I'm being generous, but it just makes sense if you have aleready accepted his point if view and don't question a thing.
I've heard people talk like a hood rat and articulate insightful and complex things. I've also heard people with a slow and thoughtful delivery speak pure nonsense.
The ideas are the important part anyways. The style of delivery, is just a learned aesthetic.
But I also agree that usually, we can tell when a person sounds thoughtful. I wouldn't rely on it as a rule, or even a useful generalization. Brilliant people can and are very often, misled.

They are just trying to justify mental disorder, arrogance, and excessive self-love, to the point that you allow yourself to live your life normally on the ruins and blood of other people.
By the way, whoever is doing this to us in the Middle East today will not hesitate for a moment to do it in the West.

His sentence:” if you consider victim the person who behead people, then you should study at Harvard”, should be remembered, and quoted all the time!
The victim is the people who were expelled from their homes and then confined into ghettos and tormented over the last several decades. This guy is unbelievably racist
Yes. Should be obvious but…
Except that there was no such thing, no behead babies, no babies burnt in ovens, no tortured children, no children strung up on washing lines, as has been admitted now by Israeli authorities. Also the allegations of mass rape is completely unfounded, there may have been one or two but there is no corroborating evidence, only a small number of witnesses alleged that from hundreds of witnesses, e.g. one witness who said he saw a rape was hiding in bushes with a group of people and none of the others who were with him confirmed that. This is also available from Israeli media. One glaring omission from the first responders and whoever dealt with the bodies was the complete lack of collection of forensic evidence for any of the re sexual violence, which is a dereliction of duty for any potential victims, DNA evidence is of course vital for genuine victims to have justice!

The reason for this is not Israel. The weakness of the countries of the region is the reason. How can you allow yourself to widen this scientific and military gap between you and the West to this point over the past 150 years?
We know the West well, and our history with them is as long as , Russia , East Asia and the rest
When you become weak, they will annihilate you en masse, exploit you in the worst way, and plant Israel and its brothers among you.
The so-called Israel is not to blame for anything. They are just a tool that carries out what is dictated to them.
The question is where are we?
A country like Egypt can completely change the region in all aspects (culturally - scientifically - strategically).
When Egypt falls ill, the entire Middle East becomes worthless
We are the ones who blame ourselves for our weakness.
The enemy, in any case, has a well-known history and has neither humanity nor mercy.

"humane as far as his common sense allows". Agreed. He has nothing close to common sense, and a similarly negligible amount of humanity.
@@billyaxon The propaganda purposefully misleads because it misrepresents many of the people killed in Gaza as innocent. This is done by presenting groups of people killed by their characteristics instead of by their actions. For instance, it's easy to make people seem more sympathetic by presenting them as women and children first because most civilized people living in the west see women and children as primarily innocent, not perpetrators of violence. However, many of the women killed is Gaza are not like western women but are actively aiding their Hamas husbands/boyfriends/fathers/sons in waging war against jews. If a 17 year old 'child' firing a machine gun is killed by Isreal, should we we count them first as a child or first as a soldier that was killed?
Did you learn much about the history of war in school? War involves the killing of both soldiers and civilians. If you were to making up a ranking to list every war/battle from the most focused on soldiers (ideal as far as war goes) to the highest ratio of civilians killed (worst type of war), where do you think the Palestinians involved in Oct 7 attacks would be on that ranking? Clearly, of the two groups Israel more more ethic in their war tactics than the Palestinians.
You should relisten to this video from 9:21 to 14:00.
@@billyaxonHe’s a realist. Where are the gay pride parades in Palestine, where are the equal women’s and religious rights? He is speaking truth. They don’t value the same things we value.
@@raina4732 We value? I dont think you know what I value. I don't value regressive homophobic and patriarchal views. But I also don't value countries based on ethno-religious identities, created through ongoing settler colonial tactics, forced removals, apartheid policies, civilian slaughter and genocide. Can you really claim queer people aren't worse off in a Palestine where they are bombed into oblivion vs one that just has regressive values about sexuality?
I believe you Dan. Do not stop trying to make people understand what is good and what is real. God bless you.
He’s full of BS! It’s easy to say that they should have accepted a partition plan that gave to new comers (a minority of the population) who landed from the boat within the past 15-20 years, majority of the land. Imagine if the migrants landing on Italian shores in the last 10 years demanded a partition to establish their own state in Italy? Will Italians reject it? Of course! …… Utter rubbish spout by this man! Palestinians live under martial laws and that drives them nuts, as you would . Israel made itself clear that it doesn’t intended to cease control because it wants to confiscate their land.
Don’t drag God with this liar. God will punish you and him.
@keksi6844 how can one drag God with anything?
"I want to live in a country where the people want children." Fantastic! Never thought of this before, but he's absolutely right.

I want to live in a country where my children are war crime influencers! 🙂
I want to live in a world where people value life and live in likenesses of Christ
@@accesstotheredcarpet You're definitely not going to find that in the current Israel! 😉

@@accesstotheredcarpetwho would want to be like a guy who said he came to to bring a sword.
Hearing this truth is like a breath of fresh air.
Yes, THIS truth from one person must be the REAL truth, right?
@@gwarlow Shut up Ivan. Nobody’s talking tonyou.
Dan Schueftan , is wisdom in its most purest form . Awesome brilliance .
What a great guy! Every sentence a slam dunk and what a sense of humor! I wish more of our politicians and elites here in Europe would live in the real world like he does.
Pim Fortuyn was practical, and right on the money regarding Europe bringing in all the immigrants from Islamic cultures.
I thought he was right on, and Europe should have listened to him.
Unfortunately, he paid the price for speaking out.
@@serpentines6356The thing is if the West stopped interfering in the politics of other countries, toppling governments and destabilising regions, then Europe wouldn't have an immigration problem. You reap what you sow.
@@marissakeynes2532 You are quite naive.
@@serpentines6356our nations are suffering from an invasion of military age males from Africa and the middle east. They want to take advantage of our advanced lifestyle so even when these countries aren't at war, they still want to be here to exploit that. When they are here en masse They congregate & turn the vicinity into ghettos and hovels unsafe for Caucasian legitimate citizens to frequent.
@marissakeynes2532 have you ever heard of Palestinians refugees that left their own country "Arab".
So excited I found this. Could listen to him for hours. So thought provoking.
You dont think much, do you?
@@bidhrohi12 Obviously, they think more than you do.
@@bidhrohi12 I sense some arrogance in your words my friend. Are you yourself an expert in what you believe to be thinking?
Well done, so well done.
A complex conflicting and common sense attitude to the conundrum that is Israel and its neighbors. (and life itself)
I'll have to watch it again, so much to "unpack"
Thank you very much for this.
"If I were to write a book about what not to do in the middle east, Obama would sue me for plagiarism."
Damn, savage. But so true, lol.😂
Awesome. Just awesome. Telling it like it is.
Amazing how clear his reasoning is. An interview to be viewed and shared.
I am amazed at this wisdom and commonsense....
Fantastic interview on so many levels.
I especially love his emphasis on the fact that you cannot judge them with our value system because theirs really is different.
I’ve been saying this for years. You have to look at the *actual* culture and history of a people and learn to understand their point of view, why that exists in their culture.
In most cases I can think of offhand, this learning about the other culture will contribute to getting along better - but this assumes a shared fundamental type of value system.
You also have to believe what people themselves say. When people tell you who they are, believe them. When they tell you what they plan to do, believe that, too.
They are not like western politicians, if they say it, they actually mean it and will indoctrinate their children to follow through with genocide.
A powerful, insightful, stimulating, amusing, wise talk. I’m glad I “discovered” Dr Dan. Thank you Quillette!
Brilliant man, everyone please listen to this video, he should be in power but is smart enough to stay out of politics and help to change the Middle East for the better through his lectures and his life towards people who actually hear him out.
LEAVE THE WEST BANK
@@colincolincolinsheaYou mis-named that area. It was called West Bank when Jordan occupied it. Its true name is Judea and Samaria. The homelands of the Jews and Samaritans. They were there before the Arabs who are from Arabia. They preceded the aggressive conquering religion of the Arabs by centuries. Islam is all about taking over the whole world by any means ie conquest, lies, and demographic change and political intrigue.
Incredibly intelligent man and his words should be listened to. I'm happy I stumbled upon this video.....
