So what you are implying is if someone has any empathy for what the Palestinian people have endured under Israeli occupation--WHICH IS NOT THE SAME AS APPROVING HAMAS' ABHORRENT ACTIONS--then that person is somehow morally bankrupt. Then FU Cappy.
Hey Chris, as a veteran intel analyst from Long Island, I just wanna thank you for the hard work and dedication you do that produce an accurate encapsulation of conflict. War is messy, and it didn't look anything like how they raised us growing up. But we stayed true, and we did our best to fight the good fight and send a textbook of intel downrange. And you're a good man because of it. Climb to Glory, buddy.
It's insane to me that troop movements and battles can be more accurately tracked by a random civilian today than by kings and generals of ages past. Even if you look back to Vietnam or Korea, generals wished they had access to this level of information
So true. Its why this period of time is called the "Information Age" although me, I personally prefer the bronze age. Things were simpler back then. You hear thunder and your village elder interprets that as "the Gods are angry. Start the rain dance " whereas today the weather channel interprets it as "a warm front is combining with a cold front. Prepare for a 50% chance of rain*" *50% because even when it's raining outside, the weather man is wrong half the time 😅
Thats not true....generals hide most of the info. They give vague and very limited info out to the public which this guy got a hold of. This isn't even most of what's going on. Which sucks. But compared to back then...was deferent...scouts would take days to report info. But wars would happen slower.
Unbiased, understandable and informative content about geopolitical war situations is extremely rare. That is a blessing for people wishing to be more informed and who do not want to fall into the extensive media traps, wasting your sanity and time. Thank you!
This channel generally does little real research and reports what people say as fact. Just look at their video on the armata where they report everything Russia says as a fact meanwhile the Armata is using a 70 year old engine, every picture of the inside is completely different indicating it doesnt even exist. But that isnt really mentioned in the video at all. I unsubbed after that obviously low effort video. Ill try this one but I dont have much hope tbh.
Thank you for your effort in doing your part to offer us unbiased footage about this disturbing conflict. It's very important that humanity tries to firstly understand the delicate matters in these types of geo politically heated events that have now taken place, I can only feel sorrow to the many tragic lives lost and deeply saddened by the sufferings of families caught in the wake of these horrific recent events.
@@AntoniaFlores-tm9zswho told you that happened? The Israeli propaganda! I would take that with a punch of salt, Hama's are just striking back at the disgusting attacks they face all of the time. Are you not upset about the 1000s of dead Palestinian people killed by Israeli attacks each year?
your presentation has more knowledge and information than 99% of the so called news agencies on the TV or internet..... and you are a better presenter than most of them ... great job Chris...
Yea because everything in TV is biased, censored and narrative focused by the govt. Nothing that comes out of the govts. "mouth" can be taken at its word.
Yet neither source will state the obvious truth, that Israel is massacring civilians in a brutal campaign of collective retaliation that is evil beyond comprehension. Mutilating babies and grandmas, turning the lucky ones into pink dust and burying alive the ones that briefly survive. What has the world come to that anyone thinks is this is acceptable? 😢
For an "average infantryman" you and your team are really earning some stripes with these quick turn analysis / summary videos *with* terminology explanation and historical context *without* stepping very much into the emotional side of things. Thank you for doing these hard but worthwhile things.
He isnt an "average infantryman". He got a job working on John Stewarts daily show right after basic training in 2008, and he went to a top tier film school. Task and Pupose is nothing more than a propaganda arm of the military industrial complex. Also, Chris cappy has an ethnic tie to Israel.
Great coverage of analysis done, unbiased and down-to-earth information on events that happened to the misfortune of people being in the wrong place and in time. Ample analysis with concise briefings gives us a whole and clear picture. Congratulations are in full order, job well done indeed.
Thanks for your diligent work Chris - this is a much faster turnaround on updates and fact-checks than could be expected from a channel that isn’t… yknow… a full on news broadcaster
I feel fortunate to have found and subscribed to Task & Purpose. Chris has a superior ability to inform his listeners about complex events in easily understandable layman's terms. It is obvious that Chris has researched his topics carefully and that he has done an unbiased job of reporting facts. His discussions go far beyond the contents of the news reports from CBS, ABC. MSNBC, BBC, Etc. Thank you for your detailed reports and for all of the hard work and research that was required to produce such excellent video presentations. Also,I thank you for your service to our country!
Israel Is done for good, people don't get that yet. If Hamas resistance gorillas succeeded to plan this successful attack without any intelligence agency knows , then they can do it again and again and again. If they do it once, they can do it twice !! Therefore, living in Israel under the occupation will never be safe , and people will not feel safe to live there anymore. Basically, the Palestinian resistance won from military, intelligence , and psychological perspective. Also, How can anyone stop a fighter who fight to "die" and not to "survive" . Israel as an Idea has been destroyed. In fact, when China attach Taiwan, there will be no Israel anymore because U.S enemy is China and China only, but who cares, right?
This was well put together. This was long but well worth the watch. It was very informative and brought up a lot of great talking points on different aspects of the situation at hand. Well done! Can’t wait for next update. Also, shout out to all my fellow veterans, and those that are currently serving.
I never have commented on any video for all the 30 plus years of watching TH-cam . Til now. Wow ! Amazing! This is how it's supposed to be done! Great job to you and your team ! Thanks!
Damn, Chris. This is the way ALL discussions should be. Thanks for your support of critical reasoning, and giving folks the opportunity to arrive at their own conclusions. Out-effin'-STANDing! Keep up the excellent work!
This level of independent reporting is so refreshing in a time where journalism is becoming entangled with the partisan biases of our political world. Thank you, you’re doing awesome work!
He literally linked the journalism that everyone thinks is biased as his sourcing for the video. He just did the work of reading it and summarzing it. The social media mouth-breathers think everything is biased because they're too cheap and lazy to spend $2/week on the journalism Chris linked, and read it.
the prefaces in the first 3 minutes of this video go hard. Cappy is one of the few public figures who deserves to be respected for his presentation of the topic. Keep up the good work, Chris.
@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Good and evil? It's not that black and white. Was Isreal the "bad guy" from the start? Weren't Palestinians the little guy getting bullied. Then when the little guy fought back didn't Isreal get Iran, Jordan, Syria and others to come beat them up? How badly can you treat someone and then be shocked at the way they retaliate? This war has gone on so long that none of the people who started it are alive today. Let that sink in.
Brotha. Just came across your channel and I have to say that I love how you convey this information and how clear you make it known that it is best to try and view things from as many different angles as possible. 👍
An amazingly detailed overview of the Israeli/ Hamas situation to date especially when contrasted with regular media outlets. Thanks so much for your efforts!
I served in the Army from 30 years and seldom have heard a clearer brief of a complex conflict. I especially appreciated your analysis of how Hamas defeated the IDF's complex intelligence sensors. Too many eggs in one basket with no HUMIT on the ground. What was not explained was the strategic intelligence but as history teaches us you never fully know or can predict what is in your enemies's mind.
@@rexracer7192zogbots don't have actual courage like the founding fathers. They conform, follow, and do what they're told. Never really being deep thinkers.
Mossad obviously let it slip to justify their war of eradication while still being able to claim the victim card. Not supporting either side just keeping it 1000
If High-Tech missiles aircrafts and satellites are above us, Allah is above everything. The universe complexity can never be predicted , I saw video of Hamas guerrillas wearing flip flops defeating Israeli soldiers equipped with Thousands of Dollars. Hope, faith and the Cause is way more powerful than anything. That's why Russia is struggling in Ukraine, Russian soldiers are obliged for this strategic war against Nato.
Great work, breaking just about everything down, drawing it up for us, and showing so many concepts in such a short amount of time. One of this channel's best videos yet!
While it does a better job than the mainstream media who portray israel as the 'good guy' it still only lightly touches a lot of the bad actions by israel over the last decade or two. Picking a side is still just a case of what flavour of civilian killers you prefer, the muslim variety or the jewish. Atleast he isnt completely glossing over it like so many others. There is no good side in this, just 2 nations of civilians suffering for what their leadership and armed forces/factions have done for many decades.
@@coolyman13you realize who can not legally get married as a gay person in Israel.. you can be gay and married in Israel but you CAN NOT get gay married in Israel.. hmm kinda like Hamas just Jewish flavor of theocracy conservatism hate and violence. 😮
I’m amazed at how thorough this is. I couldn’t craft a complete term paper on water filtration because the info was easy to find but no one was actively trying to hide it modify it. You’re doing amazing research!
I recently left the region, and I’d like to congratulate you for this podcast, it is by far your best work to date. It was really comprehensive, particularly detailing the merits (and shortcomings of the “roof knock” technique. BZ
I'm glad your channel has been getting the recognition it deserves, especially since your videos are longer than average which tend to struggle. Thanks for all the hardwork you and the team put in.
Regarding the map at 24:33: An important point to note is that the less dense parts of Gaza are still INCREDIBLY densly populated. According to the map the lowest densly populated parts of Gaza have a population density of 3.500-4.999 per km2. To give you something to compare this to, the population density of Washington city (just the real proper city without the urban or metro area) is 4.355 per km2, that of Berlin in Germany is 4.126 per km2.
Thank you replying. Pre-Statement to my reply: I don't support Hamas and terror. I do support human rights for Israelis and Palestinians and basic dignity and respect for all humans regardless of race, religion, nationality, disabilities, age, education level, intellectual ability, income, etc. Fact is, violence breeds violence and we know (US and Allied citizens where country was involved in Iraq and Afghanistan occupations and mistakes) KNOW THAT ISRAEL'S TREATMENT OF PALESTINE AND OCCUPATION IS GOING TO CAUSE A HUGE RISE IN ANGER, USE OF VIOLENCE AND TERROR, INCRESED SUPPORT/PARTICIPATION/COLLUSION, ADING IN TERROR ORGANIZARIONS & THEIR ACTIVITIES POINT BLANK. I don't believe it is OK for Israel to disregard Dayton accord boundaries and terms signed on White House lawn. I do not feel INNOCENT Palestinians get enough help. US gave 700k of aid to West Bank (not Gaza) and 3-4B to Israel in past few years, and I DEFINITELY DO NOT SUPPORT MY COUNTRIES LONG HELD VIEW OF YAY ISRAEL, SCREW/MISTREAT/FORGET PALESTINIANS ISRAEL IS ALWAYS 100% RIGHT IN THEIR VIEWS AND ACTIONS (embarrassing bc logic tells us this is never right - no one or thing or doctrine/approach on any minor or major life topic or global relations topic is 100% right all the time). My post: I also posted in comment telling Cappy of my support of the many non-hamas regular Gazans about the fact that their parliament is largely inactive and they can't engage requesting or making their rump "government" reform any policies. I also added the fact that 40-50% of Gazans are children under 15 with no control over where they live and clarified for Cappy that Palestine is not Hamas and they ARE (instead of "so and so Palestine/Hamas leader said they are") living under "an open air prision". I added facts on 1 water treatment plant and how frequently electricity is available for normal Palstinians to hear "Israel has told Palestinians in Gaza to leave Gaza" (how helpful as they have no mass communication to receive said info and also have no transportation to move anywhere and 45% unemployment so they cannot just buy gas and hop in a car (fuel also cut off by 100% blockade). This is a human rights disaster because safety is a human right. So, yep. I don't agree that Israel's ORIGINAL occupation is OK and I don't agree that they should have acted without regard for innocent human life just because their self-listed "rocket focused terrorist militant army" used disregard for human life on them. I ALSO NEVER WOULD SUPPORT HAMAS. I feel sadness and frustration for both sides of innocent civilians just trying to life, Israelis and Palestinians. Cappy, it's never too late to change and do better. And why would you even suggest we are just subject to the past, past generational decisions, etc? That is false. Change can occur at anytime - good or bad - and you know this. It is common sense. Israel has chosen to take this stance and I understand why. However, they should do more for innocent Palestinians and the International Policy and Government groups (of upstanding countries except the USA and excluding Israel) have already stated this occupation. THIS ISNT NEW. The way Israel has handled ALL areas of Palestine is a pressure-cooker and militant creating environment for Palestinians who want human rights and not to be checked and detained without cause/trial/evidence for really as long as Israel authroities want. AS YOU SHOULD KNOW CAPPY, AS AN VET OF THE US' WAR ON TERROR, EXTENDED LIMITS ON HUMAN RIGHTS AND UNWANTED/UNREQUESTED FORCED OCCUPATION WITH VERY HEAVY (heaviest in world perhaps due to density except maybe china) AI (Israel's technologies allow them to use facial recognition to pull up identification cards, past records of every stop and hold/detain at checkpoint, other IDF infractions, etc. Details on human surveillance and Intel gathering for said person) WILL BREED TERROR ATTACKS. LOOK AT WHY WE LEFT!!!! HELLO!
@Amped4Life a refreshing take, I can agree with. What frustrates me is that people are so quick to say Hamas bad let's kill everyone in Gaza while not recognizing what the Isreali have been doing for years.
When was the last time you even watched tv bro. There is still lots of genuine journalism being done on TV, you just don’t hear about it because it doesn’t generate clicks like fox or cnn does
Brilliant recap, easy to listen to, filled all intel boxes, cohesive and very well done! Thank you. I served Marine Corps, my brother and Grandfather as well served Marine Corps. Appreciate your service brother.
Absolute BS that it was age-restricted. You're a better journalist than anyone currently reporting among the "MSM," FANTASTIC REPORTING! Please keep up the great work, Cappy!

This is the most informative information that I have seen in relations and tensions. The visuals and explaining many different definitions was great. Not only did I learn about the current events, but learned a lot in the different terms in war. 💯
Unbiased? I don't remember him using the words 'collective punishment', 'concentration camp' or 'war crimes' when he's talking about the Israeli army go full Nazi style final solution....
Not gonna lie. I usually don't get my news from any TH-camr but the channel is different. Sources are cited and it seems largly unbiased. I like this guy.
Thank you for your hard work covering challenging topics with deftness and nuance. I've been watching for a while, and it's been awesome watching your videos improve more and more! !
Damn dude. This is an absolutely amazing video you have done. Don’t get me wrong you’ve had many great videos but this one is the next level. Thank you so much for your time and energy. Love what you do!
thank you for giving fair and balanced coverage of this. too many places like to only pick and choose the pieces that paint the picture they want to rather than give us information and let us decide
This is more and better information than anything on the tv. You clearly know you're stuff. This is the most comprehensive and unbiased video I've seen thanks!
Really enjoying these thorough updates, Chris. So much great information. I feel so much more knowledgeable about this insanely complicated and nuanced topic. Thank you.
What’s complicated and nuanced? Terrorist killed innocent people and it’s that simple. No one owns land, land is controlled an occupied. Tired of hearing about it’s complicated and it’s not lol
check out i24 news for some israeli perspective. al jazeera is spreading a lot of propaganda: you can literally see their overacting in gaza videos. al jazeera is qatari media. Hamas heads live in qatar.
Great video. Long term fan and love your usual light hearted commentary, but this is a really impressive change of pace and tone. This is a video everyone should see.
Love this Chris. I have been glued to your channel ever since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. You are a true expert in the art of war, shall I say a "Jack Keane Junior"?
Thank you so much for all you do. I've been watching literally all your videos for the last year. Always top notch, and this video in particular is by far the best journalism on the conflict available anywhere.
I am an average guy, but admire your ability to explain complex and difficult concepts simply. Thank you for your hard work. You help to heal in a difficult time
So, WHO created HAMAS and WHY? According to Zeev Sternell, acknowledged authority on modern Jewish history and columnist for Haaretz, HAMAS was created by Israel to counter the growing popularity of Arafat's PLO. Other sources provide this information. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin forms Hamas as the military arm of his Islamic Association, which had been licensed by Israel ten years earlier (see 1973-1978). According to Charles Freeman, a former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia, “Israel started Hamas. It was a project of Shin Bet, which had a feeling that they could use it to hem in the PLO.” [COUNTERPUNCH, 1/18/2003; DREYFUSS, 2005, PP. 191, 208] Anthony Cordesman, a Middle East analyst for the Center for Strategic Studies, states that Israel “aided Hamas directly-the Israelis wanted to use it as a counterbalance to the PLO.” A former senior CIA official speaking to UPI describes Israel’s support for Hamas as “a direct attempt to divide and dilute support for a strong, secular PLO by using a competing religious alternative.” David Shipler, a former New York Times reporter, later recounts that he was told by the military governor of the Gaza Strip, Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev, that the Israeli government had financed the Islamic movement to counteract the PLO and the communists. According to Martha Kessler, a senior analyst for the CIA, “we saw Israel cultivate Islam as a counterweight to Palestinian nationalism.” Further, according to an unnamed US government official, “the thinking on the part of some of the right-wing Israeli establishment was that Hamas and the other groups, if they gained control, would refuse to have anything to do with the peace process and would torpedo any agreements put in place.” And to quote from the link below, ...."The Hamas had built its strength through its various acts of sabotage of the peace process, in a way which was compatible with the interests of the Israeli government. In turn, the latter sought in a number of ways, to prevent the application of the Oslo accords. In other words, Hamas was fulfilling the functions for which it was originally created:... to prevent the creation of a Palestinian State. If Israel's creation of HAMAS was for strategic purposes, that of disrupting the peace talks and preventing peace in Palestine, in accordance with Oded Yinon's "A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties" which details the plans for the greater Israel (including all of Palestine), it should be of NO surprise to anyone that the ISRAEL'S "HAMAS Charter" is full of aggressive threats and calls for Jihad. It could be said that HAMAS is the MOSSAD's greatest ever creation, as effective today as the day it was created.
Mr Cappy, thank you for your content and especially this video. Clear and informative for a civilian like me. Keep up what you do, and, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !!
I was browsing the internet ten days ago and came across your Task and Purpose podcast on TH-cam. I was drawn to listen for a moment and instantly became addicted. I wish I knew more about you and how and when you started this project, Maybe your many subscribers will be kind enough to give some background information. Your program is well structured, your command of the language is remarkable and your voice is distinctive. You have no equal in my opinion.
This guy is just damn good! He had the knowledge but had the ability to use daily terms for people to understand it all as some terms can be confusing to many. Great job
Love the visuals and explanations. As a frm Army Officer myself. You are really the only source that breaks the military side movements of it down. Great job
The one thing I see most places miss bringing light to is who's homeland it was originally. Jerusalem had kings and history before Muhammad was even born. The Roman's displaced the jew and "Palestinians" colonized in their absence. Also from the first skirmishes between the two Palestine first attacked civilians instead of strongholds. Their go to move has always been to cause as much fear, destruction and loss. Yet they parade and chant about being victimized.
That was perhaps the best comprehensive and unbiased analysis I've seen anywhere.❗ Great work, mate❗👏🏾👏🏾 Saving this video for reference.💯 Two big thumbs up. 👍🏽👍🏽
Great video, and glad you're getting more recognition. A couple of points: 1) I can't believe someone from Long Island can't pronounce "Kibbutz". Keh-BOOTS. 2) The IDF also already has E2 Hawkeyes.
Thank you for compiling all this information and presenting it in an accessible way. There's a lot of fake news flying around and a video like this helps a lot!
Chris, just subscribed to the channel. Quality presentation. Retired Army. Worked with John Spencer in the Pentagon in 2013. Stand up guy. Glad to see him in the video. Thank you for your service and keep up the good work.
I appreciate the absolute professionalism and calling it down the middle you are an example of honesty and real journalism and unbiased analysis. You have done your homework and I appreciate you taking this stance as both side claim many things to take either side as more believable than the other lends itself to becoming a propaganda outlet for either side you would believe absolutely
Cappy you are one of the best sources I have seen in regards to the Gaza War. I mean this in the best way possible, when you cut out the sarcasm and jokes you are hands down one of the best you tubers out there. From one 11b to another, thanks bud.
hi Chris, i have seen many many many videos trying to explain the situation, i must admit i have seen none as neutral,respectful and informative as yours, thank you.
A real first class presentation very educational one is getting a perspective from all sides of argument and the complexities of the conflict with the right analysis of the position well done one of the best interviews I watched since the start of conflict once again well done
Great video... It helps provide a lot of intel of what's going on without heavily leaning towards one side... This is what all reporting should be like. Thank you Cappy
Your videos are great and the way you approach everything is something i wish was more contagious. Thanks for all the info and hard work you do, and last but not least thank you for your service … you’re a good man!
I have posted this on my timeline with this introductory statement: I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ANALYSIS Excellent fact-based analysis of the Israeli mess without political or religious bias. I recommend this video as an excellent insight in the situation with a breadth of geopolitical, military and economic data. Exceptionally well done. He objectively raises important questions and distinctions rather than bloviating about conflicting righteous justifications of any of the participants.
Great video! I haven't seen any comments about this so I just wanted to mention there seem to be skips in the playback around 28:21 and 44:54. Not sure if you can still fix them now but they left me a little confused. Keep up the excellent reporting!
Thank you for sharing with the footage "toned down". You are a skilled communicator and we can talk about these topics without getting into the really nasty stuff to please the censors. Sometimes that's for the best anyways... For our collective sanity.
It’s really not. Censorship is never good. Look at the % of people that live completely unaware of reality. Never known war, and rarely struggle. To the point that struggle is forgot, therefore never taught to the next generation. Completely blind to the world around them, dealing with subjective struggles because they’ve never known true struggle. By definition, the only people that benefit from censorship, is those that wish to hide something. Ask yourself who really benefiting from hiding human nature?
outstanding job, thorough, complete, consistent. possibly the best one I've ever seen on the subject. I've been following you for years from Europe, fun and comprehensive video on weapons, tactics etc. so when I saw a "serious" video from you I was biased at the beginning. but you nailed it. really good piece of information here. go on with this, please.
Doing gods work, you’re one of the only channels I get legitimate news from, everything else has a notable bias or not enough coverage. Always delving into key details without missing much if anything, we appreciate you!
"Gods" work. 😊...can't you see that everyone involved believes that their God is on their side. Maybe is time to rethink the sky gods concept and who has the more powerful one...How many people must die with their superior god guiding them to victory?
@@arlen1630Yet only one side finds joy in the killing. Only one side rapes during the killing. And only one side is refusing to ever coexist. Look up the Hamas Covenant and tell me if Israël has other options? Hamas has received funds for decades and have never used it on making their country better. Never invested in education or the people. The always spent that money on tunnels and weaponry. Look up the facts then come back with a level headed opinion. If you are too lazy to read just read the parts in the Qur'an and see what they have to say about Jews. And if you are too lazy for even that just look up the Hamas Covenant. It doesn't even matter which source you choose. All of them say the same thing. I came here with facts and by reading and doing research. There is photo evidence, newspapers, written covenants etc etc. I didn't come here after watching CNN for an hour. I came here after looking for information to educate me about the situation. And I have been looking into it for weeks. I know what I'm talking about. And my source is not trust me bro. Look it up yourself and try to think of you would have a choice when it comes to co-existing with people who refuse to coexist.
@@arlen1630 Triggered? I love even more my religion when I read a comment like this.

So true. Its why this period of time is called the "Information Age" although me, I personally prefer the bronze age. Things were simpler back then. You hear thunder and your village elder interprets that as "the Gods are angry. Start the rain dance " whereas today the weather channel interprets it as "a warm front is combining with a cold front. Prepare for a 50% chance of rain*"
*50% because even when it's raining outside, the weather man is wrong half the time 😅

But compared to back then...was deferent...scouts would take days to report info. But wars would happen slower.
THIS is the most concise, informative briefing I have seen since I was in the military! Outstanding report soldier, outstanding!

Israel: "Do as I Say; Not as I Do.... "
This channel generally does little real research and reports what people say as fact. Just look at their video on the armata where they report everything Russia says as a fact meanwhile the Armata is using a 70 year old engine, every picture of the inside is completely different indicating it doesnt even exist. But that isnt really mentioned in the video at all.
I unsubbed after that obviously low effort video. Ill try this one but I dont have much hope tbh.
Thank you for your effort in doing your part to offer us unbiased footage about this disturbing conflict. It's very important that humanity tries to firstly understand the delicate matters in these types of geo politically heated events that have now taken place, I can only feel sorrow to the many tragic lives lost and deeply saddened by the sufferings of families caught in the wake of these horrific recent events.

@@AntoniaFlores-tm9zswho told you that happened? The Israeli propaganda! I would take that with a punch of salt, Hama's are just striking back at the disgusting attacks they face all of the time. Are you not upset about the 1000s of dead Palestinian people killed by Israeli attacks each year?
Very rarely do I sit through a 50+ minute TH-cam video without skipping through it. So much information is this, very well done.
Twice
Same here, is already 01:30 am.
your presentation has more knowledge and information than 99% of the so called news agencies on the TV or internet..... and you are a better presenter than most of them ... great job Chris...
What TV you talking about? I just watched the TV and he is basically saying the same thing 😂😅 he's even reading from mainstream news articles 😂😂😂
Yea because everything in TV is biased, censored and narrative focused by the govt.
Nothing that comes out of the govts. "mouth" can be taken at its word.
Yet neither source will state the obvious truth, that Israel is massacring civilians in a brutal campaign of collective retaliation that is evil beyond comprehension. Mutilating babies and grandmas, turning the lucky ones into pink dust and burying alive the ones that briefly survive. What has the world come to that anyone thinks is this is acceptable? 😢
For an "average infantryman" you and your team are really earning some stripes with these quick turn analysis / summary videos *with* terminology explanation and historical context *without* stepping very much into the emotional side of things. Thank you for doing these hard but worthwhile things.
Kinda strikes as a bit fishy don't you think?
He isnt an "average infantryman". He got a job working on John Stewarts daily show right after basic training in 2008, and he went to a top tier film school. Task and Pupose is nothing more than a propaganda arm of the military industrial complex. Also, Chris cappy has an ethnic tie to Israel.
Glowing in here 😂
@@sanders194539Oh yeah?
Nice job man I'm pretty sure I commented on the first video, but I'll comment on this one as well in order to appise the TH-cam gods
Great coverage of analysis done, unbiased and down-to-earth information on events that happened to the misfortune of people being in the wrong place and in time. Ample analysis with concise briefings gives us a whole and clear picture. Congratulations are in full order, job well done indeed.
Thanks for your diligent work Chris - this is a much faster turnaround on updates and fact-checks than could be expected from a channel that isn’t… yknow… a full on news broadcaster
People like Chris, Suchomimus, Perun, Ryan Mcbeth, and the guys responsible for military lab are above and beyond news channels on this.
I feel fortunate to have found and subscribed to Task & Purpose. Chris has a superior ability to inform his listeners about complex events in easily understandable layman's terms. It is obvious that Chris has researched his topics carefully and that he has done an unbiased job of reporting facts. His discussions go far beyond the contents of the news reports from CBS, ABC. MSNBC, BBC, Etc. Thank you for your detailed reports and for all of the hard work and research that was required to produce such excellent video presentations. Also,I thank you for your service to our country!
Chatgpt comment lol
Well said. The presentation here rivals and maybe even exceeds what large media companies can produce.
Israel Is done for good, people don't get that yet. If Hamas resistance gorillas succeeded to plan this successful attack without any intelligence agency knows , then they can do it again and again and again. If they do it once, they can do it twice !! Therefore, living in Israel under the occupation will never be safe , and people will not feel safe to live there anymore. Basically, the Palestinian resistance won from military, intelligence , and psychological perspective. Also, How can anyone stop a fighter who fight to "die" and not to "survive" . Israel as an Idea has been destroyed. In fact, when China attach Taiwan, there will be no Israel anymore because U.S enemy is China and China only, but who cares, right?
@tobyfahre lol, yep. This is getting out of hand. The bitcoin invest scammers were annoying enough, but these are a new level.
Unbiased job of reporting facts? He clearly edited out Yoav Gallants comments calling Palestinians animals.
This was well put together. This was long but well worth the watch. It was very informative and brought up a lot of great talking points on different aspects of the situation at hand. Well done! Can’t wait for next update. Also, shout out to all my fellow veterans, and those that are currently serving.
McDonald's has served billions. US military has served millions.
Hamas attacked out of desperation, the Israeli government through systematic genocide and apartheid are starving the Palestinians to death
Yes the different aspects of the situation ❤

Damn, Chris. This is the way ALL discussions should be. Thanks for your support of critical reasoning, and giving folks the opportunity to arrive at their own conclusions. Out-effin'-STANDing! Keep up the excellent work!
This level of independent reporting is so refreshing in a time where journalism is becoming entangled with the partisan biases of our political world. Thank you, you’re doing awesome work!
He literally linked the journalism that everyone thinks is biased as his sourcing for the video. He just did the work of reading it and summarzing it. The social media mouth-breathers think everything is biased because they're too cheap and lazy to spend $2/week on the journalism Chris linked, and read it.
@@reedadamp Fr. Everyone is just eating up all the propaganda thats being fed to them right now

Except that this is not anything close to independent or proper journalism.
...you mean partisan, right? Bipartisan means both or more sides, which is good...
Dude, this is insanely good... I love how you don't try away from the internal struggles within his real leading up to the attack
full respect for your objectivity, and goal of describing the conflict from both sides. very rare - excellent!
Clearheaded, reasoned analysis is rare these days. Thanks for providing solid info and context.
the prefaces in the first 3 minutes of this video go hard. Cappy is one of the few public figures who deserves to be respected for his presentation of the topic. Keep up the good work, Chris.
Mind Begs the Question:
If in a World when Children killed

Y retaliate - Justifiable
World Governed by - Righteous or Evil?
Seriously. It made me respect him more. He encouraged the audience to do their own research, to fact-check his information, and that goes a long way.
@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Good and evil? It's not that black and white. Was Isreal the "bad guy" from the start? Weren't Palestinians the little guy getting bullied. Then when the little guy fought back didn't Isreal get Iran, Jordan, Syria and others to come beat them up? How badly can you treat someone and then be shocked at the way they retaliate? This war has gone on so long that none of the people who started it are alive today. Let that sink in.
I can not explain enough how much I appreciate your journalism. It has been a eye opener. Keep it up Chris!
Brotha. Just came across your channel and I have to say that I love how you convey this information and how clear you make it known that it is best to try and view things from as many different angles as possible. 👍
An amazingly detailed overview of the Israeli/ Hamas situation to date especially when contrasted with regular media outlets. Thanks so much for your efforts!
I served in the Army from 30 years and seldom have heard a clearer brief of a complex conflict. I especially appreciated your analysis of how Hamas defeated the IDF's complex intelligence sensors. Too many eggs in one basket with no HUMIT on the ground. What was not explained was the strategic intelligence but as history teaches us you never fully know or can predict what is in your enemies's mind.
So you took an oath. What would need to happen for you to uphold the domestic enemies part of your oath???
@@rexracer7192zogbots don't have actual courage like the founding fathers. They conform, follow, and do what they're told. Never really being deep thinkers.
Mossad obviously let it slip to justify their war of eradication while still being able to claim the victim card.
Not supporting either side just keeping it 1000
If High-Tech missiles aircrafts and satellites are above us, Allah is above everything. The universe complexity can never be predicted , I saw video of Hamas guerrillas wearing flip flops defeating Israeli soldiers equipped with Thousands of Dollars. Hope, faith and the Cause is way more powerful than anything. That's why Russia is struggling in Ukraine, Russian soldiers are obliged for this strategic war against Nato.
I wish I could join the IDF!
Great work, breaking just about everything down, drawing it up for us, and showing so many concepts in such a short amount of time. One of this channel's best videos yet!
While it does a better job than the mainstream media who portray israel as the 'good guy' it still only lightly touches a lot of the bad actions by israel over the last decade or two. Picking a side is still just a case of what flavour of civilian killers you prefer, the muslim variety or the jewish.
Atleast he isnt completely glossing over it like so many others.
There is no good side in this, just 2 nations of civilians suffering for what their leadership and armed forces/factions have done for many decades.
This video was not to talk about the crimes committed over 20 years. He literally says it multiple times@@paraphiliac

Regarding the map at 24:33: An important point to note is that the less dense parts of Gaza are still INCREDIBLY densly populated. According to the map the lowest densly populated parts of Gaza have a population density of 3.500-4.999 per km2. To give you something to compare this to, the population density of Washington city (just the real proper city without the urban or metro area) is 4.355 per km2, that of Berlin in Germany is 4.126 per km2.

Thank you replying.
Pre-Statement to my reply: I don't support Hamas and terror. I do support human rights for Israelis and Palestinians and basic dignity and respect for all humans regardless of race, religion, nationality, disabilities, age, education level, intellectual ability, income, etc. Fact is, violence breeds violence and we know (US and Allied citizens where country was involved in Iraq and Afghanistan occupations and mistakes) KNOW THAT ISRAEL'S TREATMENT OF PALESTINE AND OCCUPATION IS GOING TO CAUSE A HUGE RISE IN ANGER, USE OF VIOLENCE AND TERROR, INCRESED SUPPORT/PARTICIPATION/COLLUSION, ADING IN TERROR ORGANIZARIONS & THEIR ACTIVITIES POINT BLANK. I don't believe it is OK for Israel to disregard Dayton accord boundaries and terms signed on White House lawn. I do not feel INNOCENT Palestinians get enough help. US gave 700k of aid to West Bank (not Gaza) and 3-4B to Israel in past few years, and I DEFINITELY DO NOT SUPPORT MY COUNTRIES LONG HELD VIEW OF YAY ISRAEL, SCREW/MISTREAT/FORGET PALESTINIANS ISRAEL IS ALWAYS 100% RIGHT IN THEIR VIEWS AND ACTIONS (embarrassing bc logic tells us this is never right - no one or thing or doctrine/approach on any minor or major life topic or global relations topic is 100% right all the time).
My post: I also posted in comment telling Cappy of my support of the many non-hamas regular Gazans about the fact that their parliament is largely inactive and they can't engage requesting or making their rump "government" reform any policies. I also added the fact that 40-50% of Gazans are children under 15 with no control over where they live and clarified for Cappy that Palestine is not Hamas and they ARE (instead of "so and so Palestine/Hamas leader said they are") living under "an open air prision". I added facts on 1 water treatment plant and how frequently electricity is available for normal Palstinians to hear "Israel has told Palestinians in Gaza to leave Gaza" (how helpful as they have no mass communication to receive said info and also have no transportation to move anywhere and 45% unemployment so they cannot just buy gas and hop in a car (fuel also cut off by 100% blockade). This is a human rights disaster because safety is a human right. So, yep. I don't agree that Israel's ORIGINAL occupation is OK and I don't agree that they should have acted without regard for innocent human life just because their self-listed "rocket focused terrorist militant army" used disregard for human life on them. I ALSO NEVER WOULD SUPPORT HAMAS. I feel sadness and frustration for both sides of innocent civilians just trying to life, Israelis and Palestinians.
Cappy, it's never too late to change and do better. And why would you even suggest we are just subject to the past, past generational decisions, etc? That is false. Change can occur at anytime - good or bad - and you know this. It is common sense. Israel has chosen to take this stance and I understand why. However, they should do more for innocent Palestinians and the International Policy and Government groups (of upstanding countries except the USA and excluding Israel) have already stated this occupation. THIS ISNT NEW. The way Israel has handled ALL areas of Palestine is a pressure-cooker and militant creating environment for Palestinians who want human rights and not to be checked and detained without cause/trial/evidence for really as long as Israel authroities want. AS YOU SHOULD KNOW CAPPY, AS AN VET OF THE US' WAR ON TERROR, EXTENDED LIMITS ON HUMAN RIGHTS AND UNWANTED/UNREQUESTED FORCED OCCUPATION WITH VERY HEAVY (heaviest in world perhaps due to density except maybe china) AI (Israel's technologies allow them to use facial recognition to pull up identification cards, past records of every stop and hold/detain at checkpoint, other IDF infractions, etc. Details on human surveillance and Intel gathering for said person) WILL BREED TERROR ATTACKS. LOOK AT WHY WE LEFT!!!! HELLO!

@@dirkaminimo4836 That's a credit to the accuracy of the video. If this is the first fact check/clarification you've seen so far.

So, WHO created HAMAS and WHY? According to Zeev Sternell, acknowledged authority on modern Jewish history and columnist for Haaretz, HAMAS was created by Israel to counter the growing popularity of Arafat's PLO. Other sources provide this information. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin forms Hamas as the military arm of his Islamic Association, which had been licensed by Israel ten years earlier (see 1973-1978).
According to Charles Freeman, a former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia, “Israel started Hamas. It was a project of Shin Bet, which had a feeling that they could use it to hem in the PLO.” [COUNTERPUNCH, 1/18/2003; DREYFUSS, 2005, PP. 191, 208] Anthony Cordesman, a Middle East analyst for the Center for Strategic Studies, states that Israel “aided Hamas directly-the Israelis wanted to use it as a counterbalance to the PLO.” A former senior CIA official speaking to UPI describes Israel’s support for Hamas as “a direct attempt to divide and dilute support for a strong, secular PLO by using a competing religious alternative.”
David Shipler, a former New York Times reporter, later recounts that he was told by the military governor of the Gaza Strip, Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev, that the Israeli government had financed the Islamic movement to counteract the PLO and the communists. According to Martha Kessler, a senior analyst for the CIA, “we saw Israel cultivate Islam as a counterweight to Palestinian nationalism.” Further, according to an unnamed US government official, “the thinking on the part of some of the right-wing Israeli establishment was that Hamas and the other groups, if they gained control, would refuse to have anything to do with the peace process and would torpedo any agreements put in place.” And to quote from the link below, ...."The Hamas had built its strength through its various acts of sabotage of the peace process, in a way which was compatible with the interests of the Israeli government. In turn, the latter sought in a number of ways, to prevent the application of the Oslo accords. In other words, Hamas was fulfilling the functions for which it was originally created:... to prevent the creation of a Palestinian State.
If Israel's creation of HAMAS was for strategic purposes, that of disrupting the peace talks and preventing peace in Palestine, in accordance with Oded Yinon's "A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties" which details the plans for the greater Israel (including all of Palestine), it should be of NO surprise to anyone that the ISRAEL'S "HAMAS Charter" is full of aggressive threats and calls for Jihad. It could be said that HAMAS is the MOSSAD's greatest ever creation, as effective today as the day it was created.
Mr Cappy, thank you for your content and especially this video. Clear and informative for a civilian like me. Keep up what you do, and, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !!
You did a tremendous job communicating all this. Thank you
I was browsing the internet ten days ago and came across your Task and Purpose podcast on TH-cam. I was drawn to listen for a moment and instantly became addicted. I wish I knew more about you and how and when you started this project, Maybe your many subscribers will be kind enough to give some background information. Your program is well structured, your command of the language is remarkable and your voice is distinctive. You have no equal in my opinion.

Thanks Chris, your show is a great source of information. Keep it up brother!
Love the visuals and explanations. As a frm Army Officer myself. You are really the only source that breaks the military side movements of it down. Great job
The one thing I see most places miss bringing light to is who's homeland it was originally. Jerusalem had kings and history before Muhammad was even born. The Roman's displaced the jew and "Palestinians" colonized in their absence. Also from the first skirmishes between the two Palestine first attacked civilians instead of strongholds. Their go to move has always been to cause as much fear, destruction and loss. Yet they parade and chant about being victimized.
That was perhaps the best comprehensive and unbiased analysis I've seen anywhere.❗ Great work, mate❗👏🏾👏🏾 Saving this video for reference.💯 Two big thumbs up. 👍🏽👍🏽
I appreciate you reporting this whole situation with a serious tone with how touchy it is
Great video, and glad you're getting more recognition.
A couple of points:
1) I can't believe someone from Long Island can't pronounce "Kibbutz". Keh-BOOTS.
2) The IDF also already has E2 Hawkeyes.
He probably had to look up what a kibbutz is, that's ok. At least he managed to pronounce nuclear correctly this time!
And the way he pronounced beezrat hashem😂

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ANALYSIS
Excellent fact-based analysis of the Israeli mess without political or religious bias. I recommend this video as an excellent insight in the situation with a breadth of geopolitical, military and economic data. Exceptionally well done.
He objectively raises important questions and distinctions rather than bloviating about conflicting righteous justifications of any of the participants.

Thank you for this incredibly detailed and well researched content!
OUTSTANDING information. Most unbiased information I've seen. Thank you for your analysis.
Great video! I haven't seen any comments about this so I just wanted to mention there seem to be skips in the playback around 28:21 and 44:54. Not sure if you can still fix them now but they left me a little confused. Keep up the excellent reporting!
Thank you for sharing with the footage "toned down". You are a skilled communicator and we can talk about these topics without getting into the really nasty stuff to please the censors. Sometimes that's for the best anyways... For our collective sanity.
It’s really not.
Censorship is never good.
Look at the % of people that live completely unaware of reality.
Never known war, and rarely struggle.
To the point that struggle is forgot, therefore never taught to the next generation.
Completely blind to the world around them, dealing with subjective struggles because they’ve never known true struggle.
By definition, the only people that benefit from censorship, is those that wish to hide something.
Ask yourself who really benefiting from hiding human nature?
outstanding job, thorough, complete, consistent. possibly the best one I've ever seen on the subject. I've been following you for years from Europe, fun and comprehensive video on weapons, tactics etc. so when I saw a "serious" video from you I was biased at the beginning. but you nailed it. really good piece of information here. go on with this, please.

@@arlen1630Yet only one side finds joy in the killing. Only one side rapes during the killing. And only one side is refusing to ever coexist. Look up the Hamas Covenant and tell me if Israël has other options? Hamas has received funds for decades and have never used it on making their country better. Never invested in education or the people. The always spent that money on tunnels and weaponry. Look up the facts then come back with a level headed opinion. If you are too lazy to read just read the parts in the Qur'an and see what they have to say about Jews. And if you are too lazy for even that just look up the Hamas Covenant. It doesn't even matter which source you choose. All of them say the same thing. I came here with facts and by reading and doing research. There is photo evidence, newspapers, written covenants etc etc. I didn't come here after watching CNN for an hour. I came here after looking for information to educate me about the situation. And I have been looking into it for weeks. I know what I'm talking about. And my source is not trust me bro. Look it up yourself and try to think of you would have a choice when it comes to co-existing with people who refuse to coexist.
@@arlen1630 Triggered? I love even more my religion when I read a comment like this.
Everyone here can see that you are obviously very ig/no/ rant and just want to spew hate toward religious people just because you stumbled upon someone mentioning a very typical phrase commonly used in day-to-day basis.
Not very effective to say the least.
@@arlen1630 You really thought you said something profound huh? its a term of phrase. Try educating yourself on a subject other than internet squabbles.
@@arlen1630it’s playing out as the Bible said. It may be a few years who knows. Would it be better to have Faith instead of none???????? Your outlook sounds unplanned an ill advised. Just saying. Not judging. I love you either way you go. God Bless
Thanks, Cappy. I trust your content more than most regarding both the situation in Ukraine and Israel.
Cappy, HLC and warographics are the only ones I trust.
I'm sometimes critical of your content but overall I love your content. This intro and how you are covering information was very good, very professional and I respect how you inform people. Thank you for your content.

Refuted so many times 🤦♂️
Great work, outstanding objective analysis
Informative and timely! Thank you for for putting so much work into this excellent, knowledgeable analysis. Men like you make TH-cam a valuable resource.
I watched the first video and now I want to comment for the algorithm. This is a great breakdown and people need to see this.
This has been by far the best unbiased reporting done in TH-cam. You provided context for both sides in a very well informed manner. The other channels have only focused on israel.
Cappy, thanks once again for a very balanced presentation. Your concise yet thorough information helps a lot a layperson to understand what's going on in the Middle East.
Not in the military, but I always find your view points and videos fascinating. This was a great video and you did an awesome job at broaching such a sensitive subject.

I edited it, but you were totally right. I was typing quick and my fingers got ahead of my brain. @@morehn
@@everrest8830 the e is far from the o, so I figured it might be a mistake.
This correction may save your life one day.
It also may not, but better safe than sorry.
Chris, I love what you are doing, it’s very valuable and I hope your success continues to be exponential. Keep up the great work, you have a lot of loyal support.
