  Speaker 1: There's some inspiring here in a bunch of horrifying. It's
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: one more thing I'm strong.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Thing inspiring horrifying.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: The fabulous Barry Weiss of the Free Press. I did
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: at an interview recently with Leland Viddert, who is a
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: longtime Middle East correspondent for Fox News, and I believe
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: he is with the News Nation now.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Is that right?
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: He's recently come out publicly that he is on the
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: autism spectrum or is autistic, or has autism, whatever you're
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: supposed to say these days, I don't know, and has
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: described how he has dealt with it and gotten beyond it.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Really interesting and inspiring stuff. I can't wait to read it,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: as there's autism in my family more than a little.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Really an amazing guy and really cool. But he was
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: talking to Barry Weiss about the Middle East and God
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: in Israel. And here's a little snippet of her excellent
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: conversation with.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Him twenty twelve. I'm a foreign correspondent for Fox and
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: you know, normally you're when you're based in Jerusalem, you're
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: covering suicide bombings, you're covering protests in the West Bank
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: of riots in the West Bank on and on and
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: on because of the Arab Spring, I really hadn't spent
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: that much time in Israel, and the Palestine Israeli conflict
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: was not a thing those years. There's been a couple
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: of Gaza skirmishes, but there was the Glad Shalite deal
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: where there was an Israeli soldier who had been held
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: hostage and traded from Gaza to Israel for a thousand
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: guys and prisoners an including Sinowar and including a woman
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: named Waffa. And Wafa had been a woman in the
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: West Bank or woman in Gaza. She had pulled a
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: pot of boiling water over herself when she was like
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: five or six years old. The Israelis treat most of
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: the people out of Gaz who have really horrific burns
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: catastrophic medical injuries. She goes back to Gaza after being
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: treated for four or five in Israel, but has a
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: pass to get in and out of Israel, which very
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: few people in Gaza did at the time, So she
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: gets recruited to be a suicide bomber. This is in
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: the second into Fada, so mid two thousands.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: And.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: There's the video of her coming to the checkpoint to
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: get into Israel, wearing her suicide vest, and she'd been
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: given three target options by the Alaskar Martyrs brigade, a bus,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: a cafe, or the hospital that had treated her and
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: saved her life. She chose the hospital that had treated
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: her and saved her life. She gets to the checkpoint,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: they discover that she has a bomb, or they think
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: she does. She tries to detonate it, it doesn't go off.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: She gets thrown in jail again. The Israeli's treat her,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: they help her with her birds, they educate her, they
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: give her a college degree, and now in the Gladually deal,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: she goes back to Gaza. So I go to Gaza
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: to interview her, thinking this is going to be a
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: redemption story. It was before Christmas, right that she is
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: going to say, perfect Christmas, I am going to be
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: the one to try and forge peace, and I believe
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: in peace, and I've seen that the Israelis are not
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: evil that I don't want to kill them anymore. Fine,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: So I get into Gaza and I bring with me
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: an iPad that has the video of her trying to
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: blow herself up. So we're sitting across from each other
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: like this. She's wearing a hejab in a very junkie
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: gozzen apartment. It is an awful place in every sense
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: of the word. And I show her the video and
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: I said, what are you thinking watching this?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: She goes, oh, oh.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Has all this reaction and she goes, oh, she goes,
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: I'm thinking, I almost tasted paradise. Okay, would you do
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: it again? Absolutely in a minute. This is my calling
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: in life. I said, wait a second. These people treated
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: you in all of your burns, they saved your life.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: You tried to blow them up, they still treated you,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: they educated you, and now you have a chance at
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: life back here in Gaza, and you'd want to blow
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: them up. And she goes, absolutely, they are the infidels,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: they are evil, They're the enemy. I can't remember where
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: the jack translation was. And that's when my mind was
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: made up about sort of the moral clarity of the
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Israeli Palestinian debate. Are the Israeli's perfect No, But that's
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: what they're up against.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And that is the key point that so many people ignore.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: That's what they're up against. And it's funny when people
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: see deliberate attempts to indoctrinate the young. They have Americans.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: They have this inability to absorb it or accept it
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: or believe it because I think a lot of us
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: have seen those TV the kids shows from you know,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: those that part of the world where they teach the
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: little kids that the Jews drink the blood of babies
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and the.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Rest of that. Yeah, it's like they're Susame Street, right.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: And then when people like me are trying to lecture
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: you that the government schools aren't accidentally indoctrinating your kids
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: to hate America and Western civilization and not know their
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: own history, that that's just these silly, woke people who
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: don't really know it. No, it's an absolutely deliberate attempt
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to capture the minds of young people. Every evil regime
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: in the history of the world has known this, They've
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: practiced it. I could bore you to death with examples
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of it. They do it because it works, but people
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: can't accept that it's happening in their own country.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I guess. Yeah, that was quite a story. And you know,
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: not just the Palestinian Israeli conflict. That's what we're all
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: up against in terms of the whole radical Islam thing
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: all around the world. Yes, the people that actually believe no, no, no,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I want the bomb to go off, because then I'm
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: in paradise immediately.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Right. Well, And one of the most interesting things you've
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: ever brought to the show was that psychological study where
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: they pointed out that human beings cling to the first
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: thing they learn about something.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's troubling. I'm after what. I feel like I'm
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: up against that in my life sometimes myself will you
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: will stick with the first thing you heard, even when
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: it's been proven that you were wrong about the first
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: thing you heard.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: But the first thing even if the people who told
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you the first thing you heard come back and say
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: is they did in the study, Hey, what we told
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: you is wrong. It's not X. It's why just we
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: apologize it's not X. It's why you go back in
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a couple of months and ask those people if it's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: X or why they'll say, oh, it's X, definitely X.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: And so that's one of the insidious parts of indoctrinating
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: a young girl like this or the American example I
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: was giving. How much opportunity did she get to observe
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: that the reality of the Israeli people is not ex
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's why indeed, but she was indoctrinated to believe it
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: was the horrors of the evil Jew and they must
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: be blotted out, blah blah blah. And she could not.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: With the most amazing, awe inspiring, kind, beautiful examples of
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: the actual truth, she could not be budged from that
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: premise human beings. Man.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Whoof Wow, that was a that was that was a
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: good one. That was interesting and troubling. So that's Barry
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Weiss's outfit that brought us that the free press. Yeah,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: so she she made a decision or not to make
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: take that two hundred million dollar offer from CBS.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: I wish she would.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Because it's quickly become a media empire. They have lots
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: of super talented writers. Yes, they put out more.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Pardon me, it's possible that she, being you know, significantly
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: younger than me, thinks, why would I go to CBS.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: I'm building what is the future of media. I'm not
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: going back through it. It was the big deal fifty
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: years ago.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but they put out more good content that you
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: could take in.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, podcasts too, obviously.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's amazing. She is a go getter and
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: her wife, that's right, Katie two women.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Lesbians.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's what I've been told.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: I was going to ask this question the other day on.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: The air, but anyway, I was going to say, Nelly Bowls,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: her wife is brilliant writer. I love Nelly.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Where was I? I live in a college down so
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: I'm at the bagel shop coffee shop Sunday morning, and
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: I had this thought. Could Doc Martin stay in business
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: if it weren't for lesbians? That's what I thought, Well.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Cubstantially lower profit.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure they could. I'm not sure they could.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Attractive young lesbian couples all wearing Doc Martins big in
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: the punk rock scene, Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, they're I
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: have several paramis Yo Nazis, are you Jack? I wear
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: them regularly. But I think I think what really keeps
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: them going is the lesbian sea. He's a lesbian.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: I've got to believe that in this era of data collection,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Doc Martin knows like the home address of every single
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: punk rock loving, neo Nazi lesbian because that is.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Their bread and butter right there.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, those girls are the next quarter profits right there?
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Can I play a clip for you guys real quick?
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I just need your opinion on it?
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Sure, opinion. All right, here we go.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Went to a friend's wedding, but it was a really
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: long day. The wedding took place at twelve. When it
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: got to eight pm with no food insight, I was
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: absolutely struggling. I was starting to get angry. So me
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: and my friend, who asked we've decided to order a
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: pizza sneakily to the venue. When it arrived, I slipped
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: outside to grab it and I shared it with a
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: couple of other people at the table who were also starving.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: World War round And now the bride is furious with
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: me and said if i 's been patient, food was
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: arriving in the next thirty minutes. She told me that
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: I embarrassed her, but some mothers told me it was
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: tacky and disrespectful.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: M twelve to eight with no food at a wedding,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: is a bull is left?
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Or yeah, unless it's like a close friend. What
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: were they doing for close friend that I'm sticking around? Well,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: I wonder, I wonder. It was like, I don't know
• 10:23

• 10:24
  Speaker 2: where they do the full mask, but of those don't

  Speaker 2: a pizza into the wedding venue.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: But she did it. Well the venue though, I mean,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: what if it's a hotel, They rented a ballroom. She
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: went out to the lobby.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: And you know what, that's commitment to her friend wanting
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: to stick around for this hllaciously long wedding. The bride's furious.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Oh oh yeah, well that bride needs to shove it
