 Look, I'll preface this conversation by saying that I genuinely believe that Andrew Yang is a nice person. He's very personable I brought him on my program in the 2020 election cycle and I asked him really challenging questions And I think that the way he engaged with me Was really commendable. He took the tough questions and he tried to answer them to the best of his ability And he's just overall a really nice guy. He follows me on Twitter Although probably not after this video, but I mean by now we've had enough evidence to deduce That Andrew Yang is a fraud. He might be a nice guy, but this whole shtick that he is an outsider He's anti-establishment It's all a ruse and I say that because it's abundantly clear that he is willing to sacrifice his principles the minute It becomes politically expedient. We know during the presidential race He moved away from Medicare for all and now he even moved away from his own proposal of Universal basic income now it's just basic income. It's not universal. It's means tested And it also is being used as a Trojan horse to gut the social safety net in New York City But that's not the worst aspect of Andrew Yang Andrew Yang decided to expose himself by Penning an op-ed in support of Israeli apartheid now He went on Crystal Collin Friends a podcast where they challenged him and it was just a phenomenal interview from a journalistic standpoint You saw that he was incapable of answering Crystal and Kyle's questions. Take a look Do you see criticism of Israel as fundamentally anti-Semitic? I do not see criticism of Israel as fundamentally anti-Semitic I think BDS is a very different thing than criticism of Let's say the Netanyahu administration or even of some of Israel's policies Well, it's an attempt to push back on the occupation of the the occupied territories that what's seen as an illegal Occupation by international law. It's modeled on the successful movement in South Africa. It's nonviolent What is it about that movement that you single out to say that as anti-Semitic and equivalent? I mean you equate it essentially to fascism The BDS specifically as an organization as a movement has refused to disavow extremist elements that have frankly Declared that Israel does not even have a right to exist. So that's quite extreme It doesn't make the most sense to take the most extremist elements of of a group and define the whole movement that way And you know, we've learned that lesson in the context of other movements and other groups But would you concede that there's a difference between say boycotts divestment and sanctions of all of Israel? Versus boycott divestment and sanctions specifically of the illegally occupied territories because again as crystal pointed out that is the model that Effectively worked in apartheid South Africa No, I'm not sure I understand the distinction you're drawing Kyle genuinely like I'm just not sure I understand it I can explain it further if you want It's the areas that it's all it's it's a matter of historical record in fact that are Being illegally occupied right now that the international community all agrees. There's no dispute over it Some elements of the BDS movement only want to boycott divest and sanction from those particular areas So in other words the other areas of Israel they leave alone But particularly the occupied territories they say let's do boycotts divestment and sanctions in order to try to bring about Palestinian human rights Don't you think there's a difference between boycotting in the areas? Specifically where they're violating international law and boycotting areas where they're not I'm on the record as supporting a two-state solution, which I think is a fairly Mainstream perspective and if I understand your question Kyle, you know people who are advocating for a two-state solution I would agree with that sentiment Yeah, not a good look now By then you know if Andrew Yang was actually a good faith actor and he wanted to educate himself about this issue He would try to learn about the history when it comes to Israel Palestine, but rather than doing that He chose to double down and to me This is it This is like where you draw the line and you have to acknowledge Andrew Yang is not the real deal because what we're seeing currently in East Jerusalem in Sheikh Jarrah Andrew Yang is defending what Israel is doing now for those of you who don't know there are about eight families in the East Jerusalem territory of Sheikh Jarrah and Israel is forcing them out of their homes. They're protesting and as a result Israel is brutalizing those protesters Firing tear gas and rubber bullets into mosques near the protests. They killed three children So to defend this is to quite literally defend in ethnic cleansing But that's what Andrew Yang went out of his way to do on Twitter showing his true colors writing I'm standing with the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks and condemn the Hamas terrorists The people of NYC will always stand with our brothers and sisters in Israel who face down terrorism and persevere so effectively Israel has the right to defend itself and there's no justification for Hamas firing rockets Okay, does Palestine have a right to defend itself? Do the Palestinian people have the right to exist because it's Israel who is trying to expel Palestinians from their homes and when they protest Israel Brutalizes them Hamas then responds after being provoked by Israel and Israel then uses that as justification To kill Palestinians including three children. Is that really what you want to defend Andrew? Is that really what you want your legacy to be on the side of apartheid on a side of a State that's doing ethnic cleansing. Is that really what you want? I mean imagine Having to live with yourself if you supported apartheid in South Africa Is that really? What you want your legacy to be Andrew Yang I guess so because after his appearance on crystal kyle and friends. He had the opportunity to further inform himself on the situation But he's doubling down and To show you who's pleased with Andrew Yang Well, it's actual fascists who love that he is cheering on ethnic cleansing by the apartheid state of Israel Stephen Miller tweeted out Andrew Yang is exactly right Ilhan Omar is outrageously wrong Ted Cruz tweeted out Bravo to Yang for opposing the rapidly pro-hamas and anti-israel attacks from fellow Democrats Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib Megan McCain tweets out Hashtag Yang gang and last but not least Miles Ian Chong says based congratulations Andrew Yang Fascists and white supremacists are applauding you for supporting ethnic cleansing When somebody tells you who they are, I think it is a reasonable To believe them Andrew Yang right now is telling you who he is He is pro-apartheid and he is defending Israel as They commit war crimes against the Palestinian people as Israeli forces target The medical people on the ground trying to heal people That's a war crime. This is indefensible Andrew Yang is a fraud and if you live in NYC He's not the best candidate Diane Morales is and she actually supports Palestinian human rights so if you're offended by what Andrew Yang said here and anyone who actually cares about human beings should be then Send a message to Andrew Yang Donate to Diane Morales because she's the actual progressive in this race not Andrew Yang Who's a tech bro who keeps falling on the sword for the establishment Sacrificing his principles whenever it becomes really convenient for him to do so shame on Andrew Yang honestly like this is genuinely fucking disgusting Absolutely craven gross behavior Shame on you Andrew
