Another judicious and logically air-tight argument by Ayaan. With her knowledge, training, and personal experience, Ayaan is the best person out there today writing on these matters. No one with any knowledge of the situation (what is genocide and what are genuine examples of it?) can dispute her use of facts on the ground. I would only add that antisemitism is a disease of human nature: many people resent the Jews for their success because they can’t accept their own unsuccess. They look at their place in the world and look at this tiny group of highly industrious and achievement-oriented people and blame the disparity on some tribal cabal reminiscent of the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion” nonsense. Unfortunately, that’s why antisemitism keeps coming back and must be refought by each generation. Human nature, as Kant told us, is made up of crooked timber.
I agree with David Bethea; the logic of Ali’s argument is pervasive and flawless in this presentation; the persistence of Hamas does in fact require the persistence of Israel, not withstanding the suffering that Hamas is allowing Palestinian residents of Gaza to endure.
It seems to me that real academics should be running academia. Stating your assumptions. Developing a hypothesis. Collecting and verifying sources and data. Drawing conclusions based on the analysis of your findings. My grad school mentor was a brilliant woman who would excoriate you if you couldn’t back up your statements with prior studies or evidence (Ask me how I know 😂🤣😂) Now professors are hysterical virtue-signally mostly females who excoriate you for being white supremacists when you cite legit data that contravenes their narrative. As long as our academic institutions are run as indoctrination centers rather than centers that demand intellectual growth, digging for facts/data/evidence, and respectful debate, then the next generations will fall prey to this inverted logic which is nothing short of insanity.
Yes. The trouble is, when you use language clearly you can't make the points you want to persuade people of. Clear language, with words being used as they are defined to be used, won't achieve your purpose.

Clarity…unequivocally. Thank you, Ayaan.
Helps us to understand how moral lines are intentionally blurred, replaced by relativism or worse, to promote a pure evil.
Clarity needed.
Q: How will the indoctrinated deny this inconvenient truth?
A: With many more “convenient lies” spread so effectively, many others adopt them.
