WATCH: Former Israeli Agent THREATENS Cenk!
Ex-Palestinian militant turned Israeli defector Mosab Hassan Yousef attacked TYT's Cenk Uygur during a debate on Piers Morgan's show.
- 15 minutes
And is not limited to Gaza.
Palestinian is a syndrome.
It's a mental illness.
It's a universal phenomenon.
And Genk is the perfect example.
And if he gets hungry eventually
I will not be surprised
that he will eat his own children.
[00:00:15]
You are a parasite, a bottom feeder.
This is what you are.
His basement needs to be investigated
because he's definitely
hiding bodies in there.
I mean, this guy Genk.
Is there ever a conversation
or debate on Piers Morgan's show
[00:00:33]
that doesn't immediately devolve
into a pathetic circus?
Well, look, that guy in particular
is meant to be a circus.
So his backstory is that he became an
Israeli agent, turned on his own family,
turned them all in, etc.
[00:00:49]
Now that's a debatable
and interesting moment.
He says he was preventing
acts of terrorism, and maybe that's true
in that particular case.
And so that's a complicated
moral equation.
Right.
And if you say, hey,
I like that he did that, no problem.
Okay.
But since then, all he has done is say
how great Israel is
[00:01:07]
and how the Palestinians shouldn't exist.
Not only that, he doesn't believe
they do exist as a people, as a people.
He thinks it's a concept
that it's made up.
Not only that, that guy, if you're
wondering what his name is, he's a former
Shin Bet agent, Mosab Hassan Yousef.
His father was the co-founder of Hamas.
[00:01:27]
He himself was a Hamas militant
until he was captured by the Israelis.
And at that point, he agreed
to be an informant for the Israelis.
And so his life literally depends on doing
what he's doing on Piers Morgan's show.
Yeah.
And he, as you heard him say in that clip,
he thinks being a Palestinian
[00:01:46]
is a mental disability.
I mean, he doesn't get
any worse than this guy.
And so and then he says, not only that,
I'm a parasite, dehumanize me
because later he's going to threaten me.
You're going to see that.
And so and he threatens any politician who
disagrees with Israel because remember,
[00:02:03]
he's used to working with agencies
that if you disagree with them,
especially if you're a muslim like me,
they just kill you
and then they're done with it.
So that's what he's used to.
So that's why making threats to.
Doesn't sound crazy to him saying
that you're going to eat your own children
[00:02:19]
because you like Palestinians.
And that's what people who like,
like Palestinians would do.
Or that he called me a Palestinian
and I said, thank you.
And he said, well, if you're
a Palestinian, then you saw the tape.
You're a mental disability.
You eat your own children, etc..
[00:02:35]
So this has provided a safe haven
for Armenians who were forced out of
Armenia during the Armenian Genocide.
I know this because my maternal
ancestors ended up in Haifa.
[00:02:50]
My maternal grandmother was born in Haifa,
and anytime she talked
about what it was like being
a Christian Armenian in Haifa at the time,
she had nothing but positive things
to say about the Palestinian people,
for welcoming the Armenian refugees,
for giving them a home
[00:03:09]
and for protecting them.
So I'm sorry, any time I hear people
dehumanize Palestinians as violent,
dangerous animals, it makes me sick, okay?
It makes me literally like, want to vomit.
And you know, when he turned his
own family in, he was saving his own ass.
[00:03:29]
But you could say, hey, maybe he was doing
it genuinely to save other civilians.
All right, that seems like the type of guy
who would do that, right?
But what has he been doing
for decades since then?
He I this is the third time
I've been forced into debating him.
And he's been saying
that Palestinians shouldn't exist.
[00:03:46]
It's not an ethnicity and they should
be driven into other Arab countries.
And in this, appearance on on Piers
Morgan, he said that the IDF is the one
helping the children of Gaza the most.
- Oh my.
- God.
Oh my God.
- I mean, who would say that?
- Okay, let's let's keep this moving.
[00:04:04]
All right, so he stated that. Look.
Yes, the head of Hamas, Yahya Sinwar,
has been killed by the IDF.
That was big news last week.
But there's still more to be done.
They can't, you know,
wind down with this war.
Lots more to do.
[00:04:20]
In fact, we need to expand this war
to other countries.
Let's take a look.
The most significant assassination
that I'm looking for is the assassination
of Ayatollah, the head of the snake,
the Iranian regime that includes Ayatollah
[00:04:37]
and the Iranian, guard.
They are all targets.
The next level is going to be
massive assassinations in Tehran.
And anyone who gets in the way,
it doesn't matter where they are,
[00:04:54]
even if they are politicians in the West,
they are going to fall.
Politicians in the West.
If they get in the way,
they're going to fall.
Just remember that threat
that he just issued.
Okay.
But I just want to make a comment
about how Piers Morgan never seems
[00:05:10]
to interrupt that side of this argument,
as any public figure who is engaging
in that argument is making the argument
when you start talking junk.
Piers Morgan can't help himself.
Before he could even start answering
the question he just asked you.
He interrupts you
and doesn't let you finish.
[00:05:26]
Why is that?
Because I'm disrupting his framing.
His framing is on domestic issues.
Donald Trump is a wonderful populist
and Kamala Harris is a fake phony.
The worst. But I'm unbiased.
I'm unbiased.
Brother, you were on his show.
[00:05:42]
You're friends with him,
I get it, just own it.
That's okay.
There's a lot of people on Trump's side,
but no, no, he's he's neutral.
Come on. He's not.
- Nobody believes that he can.
- Have whatever opinion he wants.
That's not my issue with him.
Even though I tend to disagree with Piers
Morgan's perspective on these debates.
[00:05:58]
My issue with him is that he'll
have someone like you on the show.
And you're supposed to be there
to share your perspective.
But he interrupts you
before you could even answer his question,
whereas the other guy is literally
calling you a parasite, predicting
that you would eat your own children.
[00:06:15]
But oh, there's no there's
no interruptions
when those points are being made.
So and to that point, whenever we debate
Israel on his show, the person making
the outrageous points from Israel
never gets interrupted there, etc.
But when I start talking,
it's not just piers.
Every pro-Israel person will interrupt
me every time, because in their mind,
[00:06:36]
they're entitled to all the airspace
and they're used to doing
exclusively Israeli propaganda.
Who's this annoying Muslim they
let on the air to give the other side
and to talk about saving lives.
You know, shut him up.
Otherwise, I'll just talk over him
or piers, you talk over him.
[00:06:54]
But no matter what happens,
don't let him say.
Just keep talking over him.
And so when I shout back, then they go,
oh, you're so uncivil
because every time their strategy is,
make sure you interrupt them so that he
can't get his points out, I would just.
Speak over him.
Honestly, if Piers Morgan
wants you on the show,
[00:07:10]
that he should let you make your point.
Anyway, that's a bit of a tangent though.
I want to go back to what Yusef just did
in that last video that we watched,
because he issued a threat
against any Western leader who stands
in the way of what Israel wants to do.
[00:07:26]
Okay.
So Jake actually, like pressed Yusef
on that threat, wanted some clarity
on what he meant by that threat.
- So let's take a look at that portion.
- What do you mean?
The politicians in the West will fall
if they don't agree that
[00:07:41]
to back Israel's war against Iran.
Yeah. We will not vote for them anymore.
Oh, well, you don't vote for them now.
You're not in our country.
What do you mean?
The politicians will fall?
[00:07:58]
We live in a Democracy,
and we have the right to bring them up
and to bring them down.
Those who agree with Ayatollah
are we don't want them in office
and all the sympathizers with.
And how are you bringing them down?
- We don't want them.
- And how are you bringing them down?
[00:08:15]
Who is we, and how are you bringing down
politicians in the West
if they dare to defy Israel?
- Tell me how you're bringing them down.
- I already answered you that.
Check his basement.
[00:08:30]
Okay, so Israel doesn't have
any voters in America.
They're Israelis. They're not U.S.
Citizens. That guy.
I don't know what his citizenship is.
I know where his loyalties lie,
but it ain't for America.
So if you check the polling,
as I explained later in the interview,
you'll see that Kamala Harris would pick
up 4 to 5 points if she said that she
[00:08:50]
was going to do a weapons embargo.
So where is the popular momentum
on Israel's side
that would bring that politician?
It doesn't exist.
There's only two real interpretations.
One is we'll just have AIPAC
by your politicians.
[00:09:05]
And if we can't buy them
like Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman,
we'll spend 14,000,008 million,
and your politicians will fall
under the weight of our financial strength
and the fact that we could just
in America, bribery has been legalized.
So that's the generous interpretation.
Yeah.
[00:09:22]
But when the ungenerous interpretation
is if politicians disagree with Israel
today in the Middle East, they kill them.
And so now he's saying,
politicians in the West you will fall
if you dare to disagree with Israel.
You tell me what he means by it,
because it's not the votes.
[00:09:39]
They don't live in America.
It ain't the votes.
Yeah.
I mean, look, the there have been a lot
of different elements of this ongoing war
that have shocked me, especially
in regard to how little the U.S.
[00:09:54]
Government seems to care about Americans
because we have now seen
many Americans get killed as a result
of how Israel is prosecuting this war,
whether it be, you know, a young,
Turkish American who was
in the West Bank, she got killed,
[00:10:11]
whether it be American journalists
who have gotten killed as a result
of how Israel is prosecuting this war
and the American government doesn't care.
They barely even want
to release a statement about it.
The only time they will say anything about
it is if a journalist does his or her job
[00:10:27]
and presses a State Department official
about it during a press conference.
That should be concerning
to the American people.
Not only are we funding the atrocities
that are currently being carried out
in the Middle East by Israel and the IDF,
we're also risking the lives of the men
[00:10:44]
and women in our armed forces,
as they're being sent there
to defend Israel, as it's behaving
belligerently and, you know,
committing all these war crimes.
But Americans who are in the region
have already been killed by the IDF,
and our government doesn't care at all.
[00:10:59]
First of all, they're Muslim Americans,
so America, Joe Biden couldn't care less.
He has almost no Muslim donors,
so he doesn't care at all about Muslims.
And second of all,
they're American citizens.
But they're not donors.
So they never care about any
American citizen that isn't a donor.
[00:11:17]
So of course Joe Biden doesn't care.
Of course Donald Trump doesn't care.
Kamala Harris doesn't care.
So this is the world we live in.
Final moment that I wanted to highlight
is, well, just take a look for yourselves.
If after nine over 11,
America had discovered that bin laden was
[00:11:38]
hiding in a particular place,
as they did many, many years later,
but had they discovered it within a year,
and they had attacked that place
and taken him out, then most people would
have said that was reasonable,
responsive military action, wouldn't they?
[00:11:53]
What's the difference morally
between between.
Well, I mean, just just to be clear,
Nobody disputes that Shinhwa orchestrated
and ordered October the 7th.
So if he is the mastermind
behind this heinous terror attack,
[00:12:10]
then using the parallel of nine over 11,
is that not just justification?
If that had been bin laden, would
anyone be having too many moral qualms
about going after him and killing him?
No. Piers is a great example, but I
reject your framing, so let me explain.
[00:12:26]
So bin laden we didn't get, we did get.
And where did we?
How did we get him?
We got him through Special Forces.
And if you remember a year ago
when I was on this program,
you said, what should Israel do?
And I said, Special forces.
In fact, something that most Americans
are probably unaware of.
[00:12:43]
Back in 2007, the Bush administration had
Intel on the location of Osama bin laden,
and they had planned a raid.
And it was going to be this intense raid,
according to the New York Times at the
time, the military set into motion one of
the largest strike missions of its kind,
[00:13:02]
with long range bombers, attack
helicopters, artillery and commandos all
ready to pummel the rugged mountain valley
along Afghanistan's border with Pakistan.
But ultimately, the Bush administration
called off that raid.
You want to know why they weren't 100%
sure of Osama bin Laden's location?
[00:13:22]
They were concerned this Intel
might not be 100% correct.
But more importantly,
the civilian death toll would be too high
and they didn't want to risk that.
So America chose, even in the midst of two
horrible wars that we launched, the.
[00:13:38]
Bush administration, like literal war
criminals, apparently had more morality in
this case than what we're seeing currently
in the way Israel is prosecuting this.
War, no question about it.
So but even those guys decided
that a couple of dozen civilians was too
[00:13:54]
high a price to pay to kill the world's
worst terrorists who had hit us personally
and killed about 3000 Americans.
Israel thought 42,000.
Palestinians is not too high a price
as long as they get the leaders of Hamas.
[00:14:12]
Not only Netanyahu, but unfortunately,
the Israeli public saying, yeah, who cares
about those Palestinian lives? 42,000.
Imagine if 42,000
Israelis had been killed.
What wouldn't we do?
[00:14:29]
Who wouldn't we bomb?
Who wouldn't we kill?
Who wouldn't we invade?
But 42,000 Palestinians died. They got.
So what?
We got one of their leaders. Good enough?
No, not good enough.
There is no terrorist in the world that I
[00:14:44]
would kill if it meant killing 15,000
children. 15,000 children?
What kind of a monster says. Yeah, sure.
Go ahead. It's their kids.
[00:14:59]
What do I care? Kill them.
It's a disgusting place
that we're in right now.
And almost all of American media
is on the side of that lunatic.
Yeah, instead of the guy who says
those outrageous things, they view as.
[00:15:17]
Oh, yeah, that makes sense.
Israel has a right to defend itself.
So they should have slaughtered
tens of thousands of women and children.
That is insane.
No, it would be terrible
if it was done to Israel.
It's terrible if it's done by Israel.
You can't ask for a fairer
standard than that.
