I find it concerning that I’ve been saying all this about Afghanistan, Iraq, and Israel/Palestine since 2001 when I was 17, and yet some ‘adults’ from then still haven’t figured it out 22 years later. If you are claiming to be the ‘righteous’ party in a conflict, you have to do the right thing even if it puts you at a disadvantage.
people say that until it come back to affect them. Sometimes that disadvantage can have serious consequences for the nation (btw I think Hamas are a terrible organisation, but Israel overreacted)
@@MsJubjubbird Israel didn't overreact. They used the Hamas attacks as a pretext for the attack on the civilian population of Gaza that Likud has been wanting to carry out, which is in lock step with the program of the Herut party (that's Likud's daddy) since the day it was founded one month after the state of Israel was declared. Many Likudniks consider Sharon a traitor for his unilateral pullout from Gaza because he "gave away" part of Greater Israel (even though he did it as a tactical move to strengthen the program to absorb parts he considered more important), and they saw this as a golden opportunity to get back in while having a leg up in the PR war.
And in this case it wouldn't even put US at a disadvantage to use their weapon support as leverage to strong-arm Netanyahu to a cease-fire, open negotiations and transfer of hostages. It would show that they don't bend on their foreign policy just because of active partnerships. Although the EU hasn't done much better in promoting their two state approach either and some European states send weapons there as well. Either US or EU needs to step up at some point and show some spine or their foreign policy principles will never be respected again.

Agreed. Just to say tho: double standards only arent on the US side. Anyone who supports Russian mass campaigns vs civilians in Ukraine and Syria but condemns the IDF in Gaza is just as hypocritical. All need to be condemned.
So glad Jon is back when he's needed most, speaking honestly and piercingly (and yes satirically, sardonically and comedically): I've been waiting for this kind of clear-sighted and holistic candour (i.e. two things can be true at the same time...) since the beginning of this all-around atrocity in Israel and Gaza. To quote the greats, 'Two wrongs do not make a right'.
"Holistic"? At no point does he even bother to mention Hamas. Funny how you talk about two wrongs but refuse to even acknowledge one of them. Why is it that people always refuse to blame the victim rather then the perpetrator? If you want this to stop why don't you ask Hamas to surrender?
@mariposa9506 I would say Israel is holding them to account. Palestinians voted for them, and STILL support them. It's hard for me to muster up sympathy.
He's absolutely right...that level of hypocrisy within our foreign policy, especially in the case of Israel, with whom we have SIGNIFICANT leverage absolutely is unconscionable. We need to do better, and if we are going to insist on cosplaying Team America: World Police, we should at least be holding everyone accountable to the same standards, ourselves included.

Former French Prime Minister Dominic de Villepin made a similar speech in 2001 against the US's war. He was made fun of and France was treated like a traitor. I'm glad to hear you (and other US citizens I am sure) finally came around.
Perhaps in that instance the Frenchman was made fun of for the blatant but somehow hidden colonialism in Africa. France doesn’t really have the moral high ground on these issues, though so few people know the extent of it.
The US patriots declared war on French wine and did what any red-blooded 'concerned' freedom fighter would do, stopped referring to them as French fries- hence-forth they would be "Freedom Fries" for as long as Old Glory flies over our HOMELAND or until people got tired of it.

I love that Jon is back at The Daily Show. I loved this skit and reporting. I hate that the moral compass of an entire nation is coming from and being exposed by comedians.
Mind Begs the Question: - If policies of Starvation,Death Camps,Pogroms,Gas Chambers/White Phosphorus,Ethnic Cleansing,etc are repeated - Does not amount to Holocaust?
It isn't the entire nation. The civilian majority oppose what's happening right now. It's the policy makers that lack a moral compass. Policy makers who seize and maintain power in a system that's so warped that it would take drastic action to change it into anything better; drastic action that few are prepared to take.
If your friends blatantly and repeatedly disregard all of your guidance and espouse all the things you oppose while simultaneously gleefully accepting and expecting benefits from you, then they're not your friends by any stretch...
Unless you're just making a play and in reality you're an accomplice who agrees and supports them since you've been doing similar things for years. This is the truth
Co-conspirators like ISRAEL, USA, UK, GERMANY, FRANCE, CANADA are all interconnected by their Economic superpower Donor, Corporate, Fossil Fuel, Colonial, Monopoly, Stock Interest that are being up-ended by the economic shift in BRICS MULTIPOLAR DE-DOLARIZATION. The world 🌎 will all eventually shift to this blockchain, CBDC Tokenization of everything of value which always gets abused by ELITES to control the masses.🌎 This is the underlying motivations for the continuation of ANY WAR.
Jon Stewart is way ahead of the intelligence curve. He can be funny, he can cutting, but he’s always brilliant. Even when he’s doing the comedy there is still an “edge” to his persona. I missed him when he was gone.
Also Stephen Colbert; that man absolutely killed it at the 2016 election results and later on when January 6th happened, as no other comedian or news host or politician could ever even emulate. I'm only saying this because of one simple reason: I don't understand why Stewart is being put on this untouchable hill like he is Christ himself when he is just another cool great commentator as Colbert, Oliver and Noah. Honestly the attitude towards Stewart feels a little cultish.
@@IsuiGtz Pretty sure Jon gets his rockstar status because of his history and willingness to speak in front of Congress on issues about which we shouldn't be silent.
Reading it from right to left. Brilliant! And the stinger about Hot Yoga! Perfect! And "friends don't let friends ..." Classic!.Thanks for every bit of this episode, Jon Stewart. Once again America has it's truth-teller back and we are grateful for everything you are doing to make those responsible BE responsible. .
Thank you Jon for being so just in your coverage of Gaza, if all the jounalists in the world were like you we would have been living in a better world😊
Well, some of those journalists would get fired from their network for telling the truth. Their editors ensure that if they ever did, they wouldn't have any job in journalism.
Oh cry me a river. You lot never even mention Hamas. Why? Because you know there is no point talking to those maniacs. Yet you expect Israel to do exactly that when they are the ones actually in danger
@@GlobRes I’m guessing you are some sort of AIPAC bot. Nevertheless, Hamas was created as a consequence of ISRAEL’s eradication of the Palestinian people from their lands, like they have before, and like they are doing now as we speak, both in Gaza and West Bank!

@@michalnanny1098 I mean no offense but you have clearly done no fact checking on any talking points you've heard or any actual research into the facts of the situation given you can't even spell Hamas and are just parroting hasbara talking points that have been debunked for months. What Bibi and his war cabinet are doing has NOTHING to do with the hostages - Haaretz has published countless stories directly quoting Bibi and cabinet ministers saying the hostages and freeing them "isn't their priority", they just published a story that Bibi has said he's "scared of the political repercussions of the hostages being released" and has intentionally scuttled any and all deals that would release them, the hostage families have been loudly protesting Bibi, the war, and their policies which have directly killed and continually endangers them and instead of doing anything, he sent to police to violently beat, hose and arrest the families. They've published countless more stories chronicling how Bibi in his own words personally supported Hamas, curated their rise to power, and funded them to the tune of $30m a MONTH to better divide the Palestinians and so he could use them to undermine any pressure for a 2 state solution or a Palestinian state. By their OWN WORDS, this war is NOT about Oct 7 - they have repeatedly said publicly in Hebrew that their goal is ethnically cleansing Gaza of Palestinians Aka "thin out the population" "mow the lawn" etc. to claim their "rightful lands".
@@michalnanny1098 Are there only so many neurons firing inside what, in your body, would be designated as a "brain" that you can only comprehend history starting on october 7?
Jon actually was so upset that he wasn't trying for big laughs. He was more reserved and hammered the points of the US double standards. I love it when he gets like that.
It's not a double standard. Only Putin is pushing that line, and this show swallowed it. ruzzia trying to conquer Ukraine with no provocation is not the same as Israel trying to eliminate a terrorist group constantly attacking it and sheltered by it's neighbours. Phillip.

If only people in the middle east could call out the complicity of Iran. If only there were journalists over the past 18 years who could call out Hamas.
The civilian death toll in Gaza and how these numbers are completely manipulated by Hamas and are not questioned by the mass media and Jon just falls for it. 1. About 12k of the 33k who died are Hamas fighters. 2. Another 5k are natural deaths that would have happened anyway (in a population of 2.2 mil). 3. According to Hamas figures, 70% of the deaths are women and children, thus 10k are men. If Israel killed 12k out of the 33k, almost all of whom are men - that makes all men that died in Gaza Hamas fighters, as well as 2k of the women and children. Hamas lies. 4. The actual rate of civilian to combatant in Gaza is less than 1:1, better than most modern wars between ANY western armies. 5. Another very significant number of deaths was caused by 25% of Hamas' rockets (about 3000 rockets landed in Gaza shot from Gaza) that landed in Gaza on its population that has no shelters and is not allowed in the tunnels. 6. An additional number of deaths was caused by a dysfunctioning healthcare system, abused by Hamas in contrast with international law, causing these places to become military targets rather than places of healing and serve as safe havens. 7. Hamas uses child soldiers. That's why there are 33% more 14-17-year-old boys that died in the fighting, whereas no such gap is found in the 0-9-year-old casualties. The death toll is high and real, but Hamas needs to lie and inflate the civilian casualty figures to survive by getting the international press to pressure Israel to stop. The truth matters and so do the facts. Spread the truth.
like that Netanyahu paid Hamas? That Israel has been caught in multiple lies about Hamas? Or that Israel has been breaking intl laws and accords since they agreed to them? Like continuing to butcher Palestinians and stealing their land and houses?

It's unacceptable when it suits our government and it's concerning when our best buddy is doing the same thing. Double standard galore. Thank you Jon for calling it out and saying like it is!
Jon is a great voice to have around and brings some humour, too. There are others, not quite as widely known but worth checking out like Cornel West, Lee Camp, Peter Joseph and JT with Second Thought.
Jon Stewart is the greatest treasure this country currently possesses. Even if it's only one day a week now. Still the greatest. Every video clip used should always have a date on it.
No doubt the west has double standards but what country doesn't have double standards. Russia is criticising Israel even though it's doing the same thing in Ukraine and Syria for years.

Marxist Jon Stewart does not realize that jihadist death cult that do not care about life and use their children to shield themselves have teamed up with his kind (marxists) and fascists and Hizbojesus Maga christians to eliminate all Jews. As an atheist ex muslim zionist, it shows so much when a Jew is blind to this. Shame on you Jon. Come talk to us on Atheist Republic if you disagree.
Thank you Jon, the utter bulldozering over international humanitarian law, and this clearly backed by the USA (and my country UK) will also have repercussions for the long term. Please keep calling it out

To be fair Seth had brought it up multiple times, which is admirable because both he & Jon are Jewish. I can’t speak for Kimmel as I don’t watch his show, but Colbert’s silence has been notable to me for sure.
The money is in Trump bashing. If Biden does Trump policies it seems ok 🤷♂️ John Stewart is probably the only comedian that gets this. Trying to imitate him has been one of the most dangerous things, as it just massively increased division. John seems to know how to dial it back and point out issues in his own camp, which every other news based political comedian fails at.
Jon Stewart and/or his media handlers, I have never liked talk shows, even satirical ones. But I've come to know Jon Stewart almost exclusively by coming across his political pieces and I now have so much respect for the guy.

@@Kalabanano I think you should have done that before saying that mate. Section 1091 of Title 18, United States Code, prohibits genocide whether committed in time of peace or time of war. Genocide is defined in § 1091 and includes violent attacks with the specific intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. That is how the US defines it. In whole or in part. Please google things before telling other's to look it up.
@@Mckadow and that has what to do with this exactly? The population of Gaza grows by 2% annually. 1 million armenians died in their genocide. 800000 tutsi died in the Rwanda genocide. 6 million jews died in their genocide. 25% of cambodia died in Pol Pots genocide. These were actual deliberate attempts at extermination. Gaza is NOTHING like it. It is very shameful to throw this word around if you know about real genocide. Stop butchering words please.

Jon, this is precisely why we needed you back. Speaking truth about US Govt’s double standards where most others are too afraid or timid.
...or too unheard, because their videos get 0.1% as many views.
Agreed. Just to say tho: double standards only arent on the US side. Anyone who supports Russian mass campaigns vs civilians in Ukraine and Syria but condemns the IDF in Gaza is just as hypocritical.
All need to be condemned.
I’d bet you have double standards too
Yeah US’s stand on Israel has been pathetic, if it was anyone other than 5 year old orange against Biden, they would have gotten my vote.

So glad Jon is back when he's needed most, speaking honestly and piercingly (and yes satirically, sardonically and comedically): I've been waiting for this kind of clear-sighted and holistic candour (i.e. two things can be true at the same time...) since the beginning of this all-around atrocity in Israel and Gaza.

@@FD-mg5eo The two John's that tell it like it is.
Yes indeed. Agreed absolutely.
And let's just conveniently simplify the whole issue to the point where being brain dead is considered intelligent.
"Holistic"? At no point does he even bother to mention Hamas. Funny how you talk about two wrongs but refuse to even acknowledge one of them. Why is it that people always refuse to blame the victim rather then the perpetrator? If you want this to stop why don't you ask Hamas to surrender?

Perhaps in that instance the Frenchman was made fun of for the blatant but somehow hidden colonialism in Africa. France doesn’t really have the moral high ground on these issues, though so few people know the extent of it.
The US patriots declared war on French wine and did what any red-blooded 'concerned' freedom fighter would do, stopped referring to them as French fries- hence-forth they would be "Freedom Fries" for as long as Old Glory flies over our HOMELAND or until people got tired of it.

Hate it too, but at least *someone* is doing it!
It isn't the entire nation. The civilian majority oppose what's happening right now. It's the policy makers that lack a moral compass. Policy makers who seize and maintain power in a system that's so warped that it would take drastic action to change it into anything better; drastic action that few are prepared to take.

Jon Stewart is way ahead of the intelligence curve. He can be funny, he can cutting, but he’s always brilliant. Even when he’s doing the comedy there is still an “edge” to his persona. I missed him when he was gone.
“I got sh*tty things to tell you, but we’re going to have some fun first!” (Mary Poppins had this down decades ago)
i feel like trevor noah had that exact same quality. not a sheep on either side of the politcal spectrum, but an intelligent individual
Also Stephen Colbert; that man absolutely killed it at the 2016 election results and later on when January 6th happened, as no other comedian or news host or politician could ever even emulate.
I'm only saying this because of one simple reason: I don't understand why Stewart is being put on this untouchable hill like he is Christ himself when he is just another cool great commentator as Colbert, Oliver and Noah. Honestly the attitude towards Stewart feels a little cultish.
This is pretty much the standard in Europe though. It's interesting to see Americans craving for unbiased opinions and comedy.

What Bibi and his war cabinet are doing has NOTHING to do with the hostages - Haaretz has published countless stories directly quoting Bibi and cabinet ministers saying the hostages and freeing them "isn't their priority", they just published a story that Bibi has said he's "scared of the political repercussions of the hostages being released" and has intentionally scuttled any and all deals that would release them, the hostage families have been loudly protesting Bibi, the war, and their policies which have directly killed and continually endangers them and instead of doing anything, he sent to police to violently beat, hose and arrest the families. They've published countless more stories chronicling how Bibi in his own words personally supported Hamas, curated their rise to power, and funded them to the tune of $30m a MONTH to better divide the Palestinians and so he could use them to undermine any pressure for a 2 state solution or a Palestinian state.

If only people in the middle east could call out the complicity of Iran. If only there were journalists over the past 18 years who could call out Hamas.
Duplicity of the US. So shamefully arrogant too, thinking we all won't notice the double standards in play.
The civilian death toll in Gaza and how these numbers are completely manipulated by Hamas and are not questioned by the mass media and Jon just falls for it.
1. About 12k of the 33k who died are Hamas fighters.
2. Another 5k are natural deaths that would have happened anyway (in a population of 2.2 mil).
3. According to Hamas figures, 70% of the deaths are women and children, thus 10k are men. If Israel killed 12k out of the 33k, almost all of whom are men - that makes all men that died in Gaza Hamas fighters, as well as 2k of the women and children. Hamas lies.
4. The actual rate of civilian to combatant in Gaza is less than 1:1, better than most modern wars between ANY western armies.
5. Another very significant number of deaths was caused by 25% of Hamas' rockets (about 3000 rockets landed in Gaza shot from Gaza) that landed in Gaza on its population that has no shelters and is not allowed in the tunnels.
6. An additional number of deaths was caused by a dysfunctioning healthcare system, abused by Hamas in contrast with international law, causing these places to become military targets rather than places of healing and serve as safe havens.
7. Hamas uses child soldiers. That's why there are 33% more 14-17-year-old boys that died in the fighting, whereas no such gap is found in the 0-9-year-old casualties.
The death toll is high and real, but Hamas needs to lie and inflate the civilian casualty figures to survive by getting the international press to pressure Israel to stop. The truth matters and so do the facts. Spread the truth.
like that Netanyahu paid Hamas?
That Israel has been caught in multiple lies about Hamas?
Or that Israel has been breaking intl laws and accords since they agreed to them? Like continuing to butcher Palestinians and stealing their land and houses?

Jon Stewart and/or his media handlers, I have never liked talk shows, even satirical ones. But I've come to know Jon Stewart almost exclusively by coming across his political pieces and I now have so much respect for the guy.
Trevor Noah did a great job thank you, dont you think

He was as terrible on the daily show as he is inhis stand up sets.
Lol.
In World War 2, many battles inflicted hundreds of thousands if not millions of losses. How quickly humanity's perspective has been lost.
Thank you, Jon Stewart. Our hearts are broken over the genocide and our country's complacency. You are the only one who gives me hope anymore. At least you are saying what needs to be said. I am so grateful to you. You are a hero. ❤ If only our government would listen.
Yeah but you can't throw the word genocide around like that. Words are important.
@@Kalabananoit is a genocide that’s a fact.
@@aysinduarte A fact? Haha okay. Look up the word genocide. You are diminishing the real meaning of the word and the actual close-to extermination of ethnic groups in history by saying this is a genocide. You must be joking.
@@Kalabanano I think you should have done that before saying that mate.
Section 1091 of Title 18, United States Code, prohibits genocide whether committed in time of peace or time of war. Genocide is defined in § 1091 and includes violent attacks with the specific intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
That is how the US defines it. In whole or in part.
Please google things before telling other's to look it up.
@@Mckadow and that has what to do with this exactly? The population of Gaza grows by 2% annually. 1 million armenians died in their genocide. 800000 tutsi died in the Rwanda genocide. 6 million jews died in their genocide. 25% of cambodia died in Pol Pots genocide. These were actual deliberate attempts at extermination. Gaza is NOTHING like it. It is very shameful to throw this word around if you know about real genocide. Stop butchering words please.
I am so glad to see Jon again I get to watch him more now than before because of the RUclips easy access. As someone else said he still got it❤
It takes true courage, compassion and wit to produce this type of material. Connect central, John Stewart and his team should be proud that they were the few who spoke truth to power in hisar will be some of the darkest days of the century.
Celebs get cancelled over this. Genocide apologists speak freely but college students get their groups banned and doxxed.
We are so happy John is back.
End the war on children!!
