INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE SAM HARRIS
FRONT, HE DID A PODCAST WITH DOUGLAS MURRAY, PLEASE GO CHECK
OUT THE WHOLE THING, I WOULDN'T WANT TO TAKE HIM OUT OF CONTEXT.
WE'RE GOING TO GIVE YOU FULL QUOTE HERE.
HE TALKED ABOUT HOW PRESIDENT OBAMA IS BEING POLITICALLY
STUPID FOR HOW IS DEALING WITH RADICAL ISLAM.
I'VE GOT MY OWN CRITICISM OF PRESIDENT OBAMA'S FOREIGN
POLICY.
LESLIE THAT ALONE, WATCH THE PODCAST OR LISTEN TO IT,
AND MAKE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT CALLS.
I'M GOING TO QUOTE HIM AT
LENGTH, SO YOU CAN GET THE FULL CONTEXT.
HE TALKED ABOUT TED CRUZ AND BEN CARSON.
PS DOCUMENT TED CRUZ'S POINT ABOUT THE SYRIAN REFUGEES, AND
HOW HE WOULD ONLY LIKE TO TAKE THE CHRISTIAN ONES AND NOT THE
MUSLIM ONE SOMETHING THAT IS A RELIGIOUS TEST, THAT IS NORMALLY
WHAT PEOPLE WOULD CALL
UN-AMERICAN, AND RELIGIOUS TESTS HAVE NOT WORKED OUT WELL IN
THE PAST.
BUT I KNOW YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT THE PAST, YOU
ARE JUST ALLOWED TO BLAME MUSLIMS.
WEST GIVE YOU THE SAM HARRIS QUOTES, YOU MAKE UP YOUR
OWN MIND.
THE SAYS, "TAKE THE PERSONALITIES OF THE PEOPLE
ON THE RIGHT OUT OF THE EQUATION.
IS IT CRAZY TO EXPRESS, AS TED CRUZ DID, A PREFERENCE FOR
CHRISTIANS OVER MUSLIMS IN THIS PROCESS?
OF COURSE NOT." OF COURSE NOT, OKAY? NOW, WHY?
LETS YOU GOING.
"WHAT PERCENTAGE OF CHRISTIANS WILL BE JIHADISTS OR WANT
TO LIVE UNDER SHARIA LAW?
ZERO.
AND THIS IS A MASSIVE, IN FACT THE ONLY, CONCERN WHEN
TALKING ABOUT SECURITY.
WE KNOW THAT SOME PERCENTAGE OF MUSLIMS WILL BE JIHADISTS
INEVITABLY, SO IT IS NOT A BIGOTRY OR MERELY THE
PHOBIA TO EXPRESS THAT PREFERENCE.
I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I AM UNDERSTANDING NO SYMPATHY
AT ALL THE TED CRUZ'S POLITICS, OR WITH TED CRUZ.
" THAT IS A FUNNY WAY OF SHOWING NO SYMPATHY.
"BUT IT IS TOTALLY UNHELPFUL TO TREAT HIM ñ THOUGH HE IS
ACTUALLY A RELIGIOUS MANIAC ñ LIKE A BIGOT ON THIS POINT.
THIS IS A QUITE REASONABLE
CONCERN TO VOICE." LET'S BREAK THIS DOWN.
HE SAYS THINGS ON THE SURFACE, THAT IF YOU ARE ONLY
LOOKING AT THE SURFACE, SEEM REASONABLE.
QUESTIONS ARE GOING TO FOLLOW SHARIA LAW, POINT WELL MADE.
WHEREAS, SOME MUSLIMS MIGHT.
LET'S DO A TEST, AND DECIDE WHICH RELIGIONS THAT ARE
GOING TO LET IN THE COUNTRY.
WAIT, THERE WAS A BIG JUMP THEIR.
FOR EXAMPLE, IN INTERNMENT CAMPS, YOU COULD HAVE SAID,
IS THERE ANY CHANCE THAT NON-JAPANESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO
DO KAMIKAZE MISSIONS INSIDE THE UNITED STATES TO SUPPORT JAPAN?
WE ARE AT WAR WITH JAPAN, THEY JUST DID PEARL HARBOR, THEY
KILLED US, YOU CAN'T TRUST THEM.
NOT ALL OF THEM, BUT SOME OF THEM.
THE FRENCH DIDN'T DO IT, THE NORWEGIANS DIDN'T DO IT,
THE CHINESE DIDN'T DO IT, IT WAS THE JAPANESE.
WE ARE AT WAR WITH THEM, YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT WERE.
WILL THE CHINESE OR THE FRENCH ATTACK US?
NO, THAT'S OBVIOUS, I STATED A FACT.
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT SOME JAPANESE MIGHT ATTACK US?
SAM MAYTE INEVITABLE, BUT IT IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE.
I HAVE STATED TO FAX, WHAT, WHAT'S?
WE NOW TAKE THE JAPANESE AND PUT THEM IN INTERMITTENT CAPS.
NOW, IT IS CALLED AN ANALOGY, FOR THE SAM BOYS.
IT IS AN ANALOGY. IN THIS CASE IT WAS CLEAR, HE SAID IT DON'T
LET THE MUSLIMS THEN.
NOW, YOU MIGHT SAY THAT I AM AN ATHEIST AND THE SAM HARRIS IS AN
ATHEIST, I DON'T LIKE ISLAM, HE DOESN'T, WHERE'S THE DIFFERENCE?
IT IS IN THE POLICY POSITION.
HE IS SAYING THAT TED CRUZ IS RIGHT ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
GO BACK AND READ IT AGAIN.
LISTEN TO THE PODCAST IN ITS WONDERFUL CONTEXT,
OVERFLOWING CONTEXT.
HE IS SAYING, THE POLICY IS, DON'T LET THE MUSLIMS INTO
THE COUNTRY.
YOU CAN LET THE QUESTIONS THEN, DON'T LET THE MUSLIMS AND.
THAT IS A POLICY THAT I DO NOT AGREE WITH, BECAUSE THOSE
POLICIES LEAD TO VERY BAD RESULTS.
IS THAT THE KIND OF COUNTRY I WANT TO BE IN?
WE CAN KEEP DOING THIS ALL NIGHT LONG.
I THINK WHAT IS EVEN MORE INTERESTING IS THE WAY HE
PHRASES THINGS.
SO, HE SAYS, I AGREE WITH TED CRUZ.
THEN HE TURNS AROUND AND CALLED HIM A RELIGIOUS MANIAC.
SO THAN IF YOU SAY, HEY WAIT A MINUTE, YOU AGREE WITH TED CRUZ,
YOU AGREE WITH THIS POLICY POSITION, YOU GO, YOU'RE
MISREPRESENTING ME!
AND THEN ALL OF HIS FANS WILL COME OUT AND SAY YOU ARE
MISSED REPRESENTING HIM.
IT IS A CHECK, HE TALKED ON BOTH SIDES OF HIS MOUTH.
EGOMANIAC, BUT I LOVE HIM.
I LOVE AND IS NOT THERE, I AM SURE THAT SAM DISAGREES WITH HIS
OPINIONS ON DOMESTIC POLICIES.
SAM SAYS, EVEN MANIAC BUT I AGREE WITH HIM ON THIS POLICY.
SO WHEN YOU COME BACK AND YOU GO, WHY DID YOU AGREE WITH
TED CRUZ?
I CALLED HIM A MANIAC!
ON TOP OF THAT, YOU HAVE TO ADD, YOU ARE MISUNDERSTANDING.
IF YOU WERE ONLY SOPHISTICATED ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND WHY
THE MUSLIMS ARE INEVITABLY DANGEROUS, AND MUST BE KEPT
OUT OF THE COUNTRY, THEN YOU UNDERSTAND HOW
SOPHISTICATED I AM.
LET'S GO TO BEN CARSON.
HE SAYS, "GIVEN A CHOICE BETWEEN GNOME CHOMSKY AND BEN CARSON,
IN TERMS OF THEIR TOTALITY OF THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S
HAPPENING NOW IN THE WORLD, I'D VOTE FOR BEN CARSON EVERY TIME."
I DID NOT MISREPRESENT HIM, THOSE ARE HIS WORDS.
DID HE MISREPRESENT HIMSELF?
IF YOU LIKE TO ROLLINS, WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT BEING
MISQUOTED IN HIS OWN AUTOBIOGRAPHY?
WAS GIVEN CONTEXT.
"BEN CARSON IS A DANGEROUSLY DELUDED RELIGIOUS IMBECILE,
BEN CARSON DOES NOT ñ THE FACT THAT HE IS A CANDIDATE ñ
BUT BEN CARSON IS THE SWORD TO GET THIS ONE RIGHT.
HE UNDERSTANDS THAT JIHADISTS ARE THE ENEMY."
OKAY, SO, WHEN YOU SAY YOU WOULD VOTE FOR BEN CARSON OVER
GNOME CHOMSKY, I CALLED HIM IMBECILE.
OH, I SEE.
THIS IS A TRICK HE DOES THROW ALL OF HIS BOOKS, OVER AND
OVER AGAIN.
NUCLEAR FIRST STRIKE WOULD BE SO DEVASTATING, IT WOULD BE A
WAR CRIME, YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T DO IT, BUT YOU MIGHT HAVE TO.
I DID NOT SAY WE SHOULD, BUT EXCEPT YOU DID.
IT IS A TRICK THAT TRUMP PLACE.
I'M NOT SAYING WE SHOULD, BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD.
HE JUST DOES IT WITH MORE FLOWERY WORDS.
HE JUST DID IT WITH BEN CARSON.
I'D VOTE FOR BEN CARSON, HE'S A MANIAC AND HE IS CRAZY.
THE FINAL PART OF THIS TRICK GOES LIKE THIS, HE SHOUTS FROM
THE ROOFTOPS, HE CRIES AND CRIES, AND THEN HE IMPLIES THAT
YOU DID IT ON PURPOSE, BECAUSE YOU ARE A BAD ACTOR.
YOU ARE A BAD PERSON, TRYING TO MISREPRESENT HIM ON
PURPOSE, AND YOU CANNOT BE TRUSTED ON ANYTHING.
WHY DID YOU NOT SAY THAT I SAID THAT BEN CARSON IS A MANIAC?
JULLIARD, WE ARE SAYING IT.
BUT WE ARE ALSO POINTING OUT THE GAMES THAT YOU PLAY.
IF YOU WANT TO GO TO THE POLICY, REZA ASLAN, HE IS A GUY WHO
SAYS HE IS MUSLIM, I HAVE CHALLENGED HIM WITH IT.
I THINK HIS EXPLANATION ON WHY HE IS A MUSLIM, I DON'T
AGREE WITH IT.
WHO AM I TO CHALLENGE HIS BELIEFS INSIDE HIS HEAD?
BUT WHEN HE SAYS HE WHY HE IS A MUSLIM, IT SOUNDS WEIRD TO ME.
OKAY, I TAKE HIM AT FACE VALUE, HE IS WHAT HE SAYS HE IS, I
DISAGREE WITH HIM.
I THINK ISLAM IS COMPLETELY WRONG.
I THINK CHRISTIANITY IS COMPLETELY WRONG.
I THINK ALL THE RELIGIONS ARE COMPLETELY WRONG.
BY THE WAY, THEY ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH RELATIVITY THEORY.
DO YOU THINK THERE IS ACTUALLY A PERCENTAGE CHANCE THAT
JESUS IS GOING TO RETURN?
AN ATHEIST, I BELIEVE THERE IS 80 PERCENT CHANCE.
SO AS HE GOES THROUGH ALL OF THIS, THEN HE SAYS, I'M SO
SOPHISTICATED.
IT IS HARD FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND ME, AND IF YOU ARE EITHER
NOT UNDERSTANDING ME, OR PURPOSEFULLY LYING ABOUT
ME, THEN YOU MUST BE A BAD PERSON.
THESE ARE THE GAMES THAT ARE PLAYED, SO HE CAN COME BACK
AND GO, ON THE POLICY, YOU SHOULD KEEP THE MUSLIMS
OUT, AND VOTE FOR BEN CARSON, WHO KNOWS NOTHING
WHATSOEVER, AND SUPPORTS HIS FOREIGN-POLICY.
BEN CARSON.
WHEN ASKED, WHO IS OUR TOP ALLY IN THE MIDDLE EAST?
HE WAS ASKED ON FOX NEWS, HE COULD NOT NAME ONE ALLY.
AND THIS GUY THINKS THAT HE UNDERSTANDS ñ THAT BEN CARSON
UNDERSTANDS THE FOREIGN-POLICY BETTER THAN GNOME CHOMSKY.
THERE AREN'T ENOUGH PALMS FOR THAT FACE PALM.
TO COME BACK TO REZA ASLAN, EVEN KNOW I DISAGREE WITH HIM ON
RELIGION, WE AGREE ON POLICY.
THE RESULTS OF THE ACTIONS THAT WE TAKE EVERY COUNTRY ARE
MONUMENTALLY IMPORTANT.
SO EVEN THOUGH I THINK ISLAM IS 100
PERCENT WRONG, I'M NOT GOING TO GO INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE
MIDDLE EAST AND SAY, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!
BECAUSE IT ISN'T GOING TO WORK AND IT IS GOING TO BE
COUNTERPRODUCTIVE.
IF YOU WANT PEOPLE THAT ARE MUSLIM TO BECOME MORE
SECULAR, YOU DON'T GO SPIT IN THEIR FACE.
EVEN IF YOU THOUGHT, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT, I JUST
WANT THE TRUTH AND I AM GOING TO GO SPIT IN THEIR FACE, OKAY,
BUT WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE COUNTRY?
DO WE ACTUALLY SUPPORT BEN CARSON?
BECAUSE WE THINK HE ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS THE REAL
PROBLEM OF JIHADISTS IN THE WORLD?
DO WE VOTE FOR THAT MONSTER?
DO WE SUPPORT TED CRUZ'S POLICIES, THAT ARE OPENLY
BIGOTED?
KEEP OUT THE MUSLIMS, BRING IN THE QUESTIONS, WHAT DO YOU
CALL THAT?
I KNOW SOME OF YOU CALL IT, THAT'S WONDERFUL, THEY HAVE
THE COURAGE TO BE BIGOTED ñ
I MEAN, THE COURAGE TO CALL IT LIKE IT IS.
TRUMP SUPPORTERS SAY THE SAME THING.
PAY THE MEXICANS, NOT ALL OF THEM, BUT SOME OF THEM,
CRIMINALS AND RAPISTS.
NOT ALL OF THEM, BUT A LOT OF THEM, GOTTA KEEP THEM OUT.
SO, YES, I AGREE WITH SAM ON IDEOLOGY, IN TERMS OF RELIGION,
ALTHOUGH HE'S APPARENTLY NOT AS GOOD AN ATHEIST AS I AM, HE
THINKS THERE IS SOME CHANCE THAT JESUS WILL RETURN.
BUT NO, I THINK HIS POLICIES ARE DANGEROUS.
I THINK THEY LEAD DOWN A DARK ROAD, AND I HONESTLY THINK
THAT IF HE IS SUPPORTING THIS, THEN THEY ARE UN-AMERICAN.
THAT IS FOR YOU TO DECIDE.
LISTEN TO THE FULL PODCAST, BUT PLEASE STOP CRYING ABOUT
THE MISREPRESENTATION, BECAUSE IT IS A TRICK, AND HE DOES
IT ON PURPOSE SO THAT HE CAN COME OUT AS THE VICTIM.
HE HAS DONE IT DOZENS OF TIMES.
WAKE UP TO WHAT IS HAPPENING.
