Brad Lander went on a shul mission. How
fun.
We were detained for picking olives.
And he posted some selfie where he
looked like he was on, you know, Beth
Beth Palestine mission from the Upper
West Side.
Did you get the egg salad or the tuna?
On the bus, Brad, painting himself as a
pick-me Jew victim.

>> It's so performative and gross.
You know, I saw an interesting video
um
today
from Darone, I believe it was.
You know, about the
I've been having issues with the whole
settler violence
conversation.
Uh and I've spoken about this. I tried
speaking about it in the debate recently
where it's not that I'm denying that
crime takes place or that Jews are
incapable of committing crime or even
terrorism.
But there's a difference between
isolated acts of violence that should be
condemned, dealt with, prosecuted,
and a narrative of settler violence in
which
the entire the entirety of well, Israel
and specifically the entirety of the
population of the Jews of Judea and
Samaria that live there in thriving
prosperous communities building in area
C where they're permitted to build,
they're painted as this
massive illegal block of settle of
settlers who are all violent and
illegitimate.
And it's interesting what gets lumped
into this category called settler
violence.
And it's not just referring to
I don't know, call it the hilltop youth
or random thugs or criminals who do
criminal activity.
The fact is any incident where there's
violence
without accounting for who started it,
where the acts of aggression are versus
the acts of retaliation or defense, get
lumped into this category of settler
violence.
Jews going to pray on the Temple Mount
can get lumped into settler violence.
So, the numbers are com-
highly
uh manipulated, distorted to paint this
picture of this phenomenon when in fact
I think it's marginal as an issue, not
excusing it. I'm just talking about the
degree to which it's portrayed as this
phenomenon that needs to be addressed.
And that that's the cause of the
conflict. No.
Last year alone there were 5,000 attacks
against Jews by Arabs.
5,000.
And
not taking into account who began an
attack versus who's defending against
it, it gets lumped into incidents of
settler violence.
It's the same thing as when a suicide
bomber blows himself up and he's counted
as one of the dead
by when CNN or BBC reports headline,
"Five killed in suicide attacks."
"Five killed in a terrorist attack."
Well, four were Israelis and the fifth
was the suicide bomber, the terrorist.
But you can see how it can be very
deceptive.
5,000 attacks on Jews by Arabs in Judea
and Samaria. When somebody
There was an anecdote of somebody
driving through an a village, somebody
and an Arab pulls out a gun and starts
shooting at the car, he shoots back.
That's considered an incident an
incident of settler violence.
So, don't be fooled. Sometimes I go into
Douglas Murray randomly. Don't be fooled
by such deception, sophistry in the
headlines.
There's a very big difference between
criminal activity that we can condemn,
terroristic activity that we can
condemn. The question is to what degree
is it really happening. And if you
ignore the thousands upon thousands of
Arab attacks on Jews over decades and
decades and decades that have been
happening where the provocations.
That suddenly you show up fully ready to
film, armored up to provoke Jewish
farmers, and paint it as idyllic farmers
Arab farmers that are being harassed
constantly.
And take every incidents in which Jews
are attacked too as settler violence or
Jews going up to pray in certain areas
or just living or existing in certain
areas as settler violence. Well, you're
the one doing the deceiving, not me. I'm
not ignoring it, you're distorting it.
So, let's have a
let's have an honest conversation about
such things.
And the pick me bad lander kill them not
me. I'm cool.
