I know the past few days of my show have been really difficult to watch and listen to. I want to take a moment to explain why I'm showing you all these videos and playing all the audios and showing you all the pictures of the atrocities that the terrorist group Hamas has taken and released. I'm showing you the abduction of raped women and the kidnapping of families and the murder and burning of children. There's a reason I'm doing this. There’s an intellectual self-centeredness that predominates among a lot of people in the West. They think everybody thinks like them. They see people do something truly evil and think to themselves, “Well, that is terrible — but the only reason I would do something like that is if something truly awful happened to me. After all, people are generally reasonable, generally peaceable, generally decent, aren’t they? What awful circumstance could force someone into such terrible, evil behavior?” “If only someone had just made a few concessions, dismantled a few settlements, offered a little more land. After all, we all want the same thing, right?” No, we don't. You can all tell yourself these comforting little lies before you see the pictures of what true evil does. But you can't tell those lies to yourself after you see the pictures, after you see the videos, after you listen to the audio. Here’s the point. Nothing anyone has ever done to you or could ever do to you would cause you to do these things. No territorial dispute would cause you to butcher babies. No squabble over territory would cause you to rape and abduct women. No so-called “occupation” would cause you to kidnap entire families or burn them alive in their homes. The only type of person who would do something like that is a person who isn't like you. A person who thinks differently than you do. A person who does not value life or children or decency the same way that you do. A person who might proclaim they love death like you love life. Latest Releases: |

Hamas leader Mohammed Deif said, “Today you Israelis are fighting divine soldiers who love death for Allah the way you love life and who compete among themselves for martyrdom like you flee from death.” Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh screamed, “We love death like our enemies love life.” These kinds of people would call for killing their own children to wipe out the Jews. A Hamas spokesperson: “The Palestinian people shall liberate its land with blood, with martyrs, with women, and with children.” Contrary to the peculiar narcissism of many Westerners, there are lots of people around the world who don't think like we do, who don't actually care about their children the way we do, which is why they hide rocket launchers behind their own kids and willingly murder Jewish babies just because they are Jewish babies. They’ve been indoctrinated — cult-like since youth — in a system of cancerous hatred so strong they're willing to commit the worst atrocities since the Nazis and then post them online and celebrate them. Hamas is not like you. Those people who celebrate Hamas are not like you. And — Hamas exploits the fact that you are not like them. They murder your children and they hide behind their own. They rely on your cultural narcissism to make you believe the death of the kids they are hiding behind is somehow your fault. You see, if they cared about their kids the way you do it must be your fault when their children die in airstrikes they provoke — while they hide behind their own children. They expect you to care more about their kids than they do themselves. But what's more important, they expect you to believe that they care about their own children when they manifestly care more about other things. About destroying the state of Israel. About murdering every Jew in their bed. Latest Episode: |

They cannot be reasoned with and they cannot be negotiated with. All of this is awkward for those who believe in a supposed universal human liberalism in which we all seek the same thing. We all seek freedom. We all seek a decent way of life. Not all human beings think the same way. We don't. I know this is hard to believe about any human beings, but it happens to be true even if it is a seriously hideous truth, perhaps the most hideous truth. Hamas does not think like you. We do not all seek the same thing. We do not share the same values. You know how I know we don't? Not just because Hamas says it and proclaims it. But also because of what they do and then what they broadcast and celebrate. The Nazis at least tried to hide their genocide. Hamas cheers it. They hand out candies to children to celebrate the murder of babies and the rape of women. I've seen the pictures; I've seen the videos; I've watched the tapes. They release the tapes. They celebrate. You've seen them on my show. The myth that everyone is a Westerner underneath has to end — or the West itself is going to end, because narcissism is the preserve of the safe and the fat and the happy. Unless — we wake up and look the ugly reality of evil directly in its evil face. That's why I'm showing you this ugly reality, that hideous reality. I don't want to do it, but we have to do it because we must wake up. If we don't, the West will sleepwalk our way right into our own extermination. Ben Shapiro Top five headlines: |
