thoughts on minute 8:42, "you have to be delivering what there's a market for" reminds me of how the Apostle Paul pointed out that doing this, i.e. catering to the audience, results in a watering down of Truth- "3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths." 2 Timothy 4: 3.4 (NASB)

If the truth makes you uncomfortable don't blame the truth ,blame the lie that made you comfortable The conflict did not start on Oct 7th historical fact on May 14th 1948, over 700,000 Palestinians were driven from their homes, or fled, under threats of violence.HAMAS did not exist then The Director of the Jewish National Land Fund Joseph Weitz wrote " It must be clear that there is no room for both peoples in this country" On April 9th 1948 Israeli soldiers from Irgun and LEHI exterminated Palestinian villagers in Der Yassin ,they lined men women and children up against a walls and shot them all. Acccording to the former director of the Israeli army archives," in alomost every village occupied by Israeli during the war of independence ,acts were comitted toward Palestinian civilian population which are defined as war crimes,such as murders, massacres and rapes,the Israeli military historian Uni Milstein confirmed that every skirmish ended in a massacre of Arabs So the creation of the State was based on expulsion and ethnic cleansing and you still wonder why Palestinian resistance group attacked Israel ?

Are they as much an existential threat to civilsed order as "holocaust deniers, the Jew haters, the Muslim fanatics"? And don't their ranks include many Jew haters?

When Chris asked him how his health was during that interview he shared that he was still in a good deal of pain, similar to having a bad flu all the time, but that his pain levels were much more tolerable than they had been.

Not timidity mate just lack of eloquence. Let's face it if the person you are debating is able to shut you down and you don't know how to counter then that kind of stops you from speaking out. You have to have the gift of the gab as well as the data.

I totally agree. Many people believe what Douglas says but few have the courage combined with being extremely articulate that he has to express these things so clearly. Both Dauglas and Jordan are champions of the silent majority who can't articulate what we quietly know is the TRUTH.

I've been following Douglas for now two decades, from his outstanding work on Northern Ireland, to the dark heart of the Islamist death cult that runs Gaza. For me he combines the intellectual vigour of Roger Scruton with the polemical skills of Christopher Hitchens. He is the great champion of holding truth unto power, and I am certain is on the cusp of becoming the 21st George Orwell. Douglas is our standard bearer, our intellectual minesweeper, that allows all our other hero's, to thrive. I am just glad he is on our side.

You mean the “Islamic Death Cult” called Hamas that US-Israel funded as a foil to PLO headed by Nobel Prize Winner Yasser Arafat? HAMAS offshoot of Moslem Brotherhood-created & funded in Egypt to regime change their elected President by Brits ? The same ones, Brits, Yanks who created & supplied Mujahideen in Afghanistan against the Soviets who’d been invited to support by elected President? The Mujahideen that was then radicalised by US orchestrating Osama bin Laden coming to teach radical Islam-Saudi Wahhabism in the refugee camps of Peshawar Pakistan where the Afghan refugees-Mujahideen were located. The same Mujahideen that turned into Al Qaeda & ISIS? Both of whom they continue to fund & arm. Radicalised, or as they called it “bonded in brotherhood by Wahhabism”. You means those extremist groups that normal Moslems-the vast majority, abhor? Might not be a bad idea for the Douglases & Christophers & Petersens (the latter tweeted “give them hell” to Israel at the outset to encourage their genocide of the most highly educated refugees on the planet-look that up. 5,000 children in 4 & half weeks) to actually look into who funds & creates what & what their motives are in doing so rather than sitting on their sorry Anglo butts & pontificating life.

When I watch Jordan Peterson, I am often left marvelling at his exquisite use of language and his ability to articulate his thinking with such accuracy. I often wonder if this comes from the extensive writing down of ideas, embedding them into your subconscience - along with vast domain experience and a real desire to grapple with the meat and bones of it all. May be time to sharpen up the pencil!

Other than his prosody and diction, nothing Douglas Murray says sticks in my mind quite the same way.

Children are the innocent people who we should at all costs give an environment within which we only protect them from harm, physical, because to do otherwise pushes our biases, prejudices, and fear into them. At ARC Peterson openly discusses psychologically conditioning his children into performing tasks to mould them to a societal purpose he deems correct. That’s rather ominous if he thinks, as is possible, he should apply that to society, through behavioural modification, emotional narratives forming that directive on others. Authoritarianism by submissive obedience meets totalitarianism by government agency.
