Amazing

He got it wrong about BLM.

Nahda's failure in tunisia is a the final blow to Democracy in the Arab World IMO. Since it basically became a secular party and give up all its islamic values yet a coup happened against them which proves the Arab Expectionalism theory which states that Democracy wont work their due to these countries rich resources so the armies their have no interest in Democracy. So Arabs have no other choice to get rid of these secular dictators than following the Iranian Model instead of the Turkish Model.

Great introduction.

Enlightening me about what I wasn’t thinking of

Thank you for inligting us with the knowledge to comprehend what we creaved

Thankyou for the amazing interview

I really want to hear Chomsky’s opinion on 15 minute cities, compulsory vaccination, WHO, WEF, the farmers protests. No one seems to ask this, Ilan Pappe got close but I’m not satisfied😂

Thanks a lot dear professor Olga Davidson for such an interesting conversation 👏👏👏👌

Very insightful conversation. Thank you Gabor and Ilan and organizers!! I like so many aspects of this conversation. I love the beginning exchange (at minutes 8:00 to 20:00) where Ilan and Gabor mention their interests in speaking with each other to connect “Addiction to Ideologies”. Can we relate racism and dehumanization of others with the analysis of collectives or collective activities that hurt others? Can we relate history with psychology? Hence, can we feel compassion for those who are addicted to ideologies? Is there psychological comfort in believing in an ideology? Hypocrisy in conflict comes from ideologies. Addiction is about not dealing with our vulnerability. An ideology does that, and for this reason, ideologies are very seductive. Ideologies are an antidote to our own pain. Therefore to remove an ideology, we must soothe the pain, not caused more pain through violence to others (or harm to ourselves). If we can believe that there is Redemption, a Response and Revenge to the pain of what happened in the past to our families, an ideology makes it less painful to think about what happened in the past. Addiction has common features with belief in ideologies : they are both rigid in our incapacity to look at the truth, and to block our compassion, to serve as an antidote to the pain caused to us, our families in the past, and the pain caused now to others. There is still Barbarism in this world. What kind of selective mindset do we have to think that ONLY other people do it? As Gabor asks, would you rather be illusioned or disillusioned? Would you like to believe in fairytale ideas or see the truth as it really is? For me as a person interested in personality psychology and rigid mindsets and the force of addiction on us for many years, this exchange explains my own fascination with my more recent interest in conflict mediation and resolution, by integrating psychology in the peace building process. I hope you read my sincere interest in this. And if you are interested in this too, please join us in a group called Israelis and Palestinians for Peace (IP4P) in Facebook. We try to work on this as we can within the loud noise of conflict.

Gabor Mate MD PhD ❤

Thank you all; and special thanks to Prof.Chomsky & Prof.Ilan Pappé and whom organized this event ..

Can't get enough Ilan Pappé + Gabor Maté in these unconscionably horrific times 🥺 Thanks for this discussion 👏 Even tho this apparently was recorded a year prior to the War on Gaza, it feels as relevant as it ever could've ✊ #CeasefireNOW!!

❤Thank you

Thank you so much for all you do to make a 🌍 a better place

Zionism is xenophobia, racism, supremacism, and apartheid all rolled into one.

I continue to hear several commenters, including Alan Dershowitz, citing Hiroshima and Nagasaki as justified self defense. Is this really the bottom line? Is this really what we are talking about? In reality, any nuclear response will end this world. There are no "limited nuclear conflicts." So what is it? Where does this end? Do you think that the world is going to "understand" Israel's Right to self defense" when they pull out nukes? We are all going to be finished. This situation started with the occupation and repression by Israel. However, the real cause of this situation is the holocaust - the unbelievable unspeakable savagery of the Europeans. I understand that that can not be ignored or forgotten. I agree completely. I don't know the answer. I don't know how to respond to what happened to all the millions of innocent people. It makes me ashamed to be a human being. There is no way out of this current situation without some level headed honesty, patience and compassion. Are we up to? Or is this our destiny, self annihilation? What's it going to be, people? In this current Zionist mentality, there is a profound and ultimate, "us versus them" equation fueled by a justifiable existential terror perpetuated by millenia of persecution. The repercussions of generations of massacres, genocide continue to reverberate into the present and future. We are witnessing a sequela in proportion to the magnitude of unimaginable horror they have experienced. The result is represented by a traumatized group resolved to never allow this again - and who have access to power capable of destroying the planet. The survivor, and ganged upon, in a mad suicidal rage, have decided to challenge the world and run into a crowd of thugs, insulting, prodding and provoking. (Not unlike a disturbed, alienated, radicalized youth who cannot endure humiliation, once more, and who take revenge by shooting up a public place and then turning the gun on himself. Its insanity driven by desperation and injustice.) The attack by Hamas was suicidal act of desperation and was unforgiveable. Israel's response of killing thousands of innocent children is reckless insanity. They haven't helped their profile in the world. This behavior only shows the world that they simply don't care what the world thinks. They are that blind with revenge for all the horrors visited upon them. Their policies and behavior are irrational and reactive. It cannot be ignored that they possess the world's most destructive weapons. The justification of killing children only results in more disapproval by the world, alienating them further, and making them a target - as well as anyone supporting their policies. Israel is saying fuck all of you in the world, “Fuck you, we are here to stay. We will never be the victim of genocide, again. We will do what we think we need to survive and ‘defend’ ourselves and we have the ultimate means to ensure our survival.” They are bringing the wrath of the world upon them - and anyone who supports their policies. So is this really what we are talking about, nuclear annihilation - a retribution for past victimization?

🙄the world is over

Thank you

Good start to bring the world together for peace Free 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Imence traumatic childhood of ghaza is going to be last lobg

Brilliant men but sad they are falling for the covid/MRN vaccine narrative. It's a good thing that poorer countries didn't get it. Their populations will live longer.

Fascinating

After seeing what Palestinians experience i refuse to complain about my circumstances...their courage strength and indominable spirit gave me a new lease on life. Am 54years old South African and giving myself over to the service of the "FREE PALESTINE" global movement.

Dr. Chomsky, hooray for your strength and dedication! Did you hear Dr. Jeffrey Sach's address to the UN Security Council on November 22, and if so cold you comment?

finally! thank you Dr. Mate. I wrote a post on Dr. Alice Miller's blog about 15 years ago, I don't know if it is still there, about how traumatic the medical education system is. It is a "small-t" trauma, and yet I felt it so strongly that I took 2 years off between medical school and residency and considered leaving the field, not wanting to practice medicine if this field treats its next generation as I was treated.

Only Norman Finkelstein is missing from this pre eminent trinity of scholars on this subject.

The biggest enemy of the Palestinian Cause is ignorance and lack of ethics. Anyone who takes a position against the Palestinian cause is either radical enough to prioritise geopolitics over ethics despite realising the just cause of the Palestinian people or he/she is simply a simple-minded individual with a good heart but has been manipulated by propaganda and media.

Ha, business has been devoid of moral responsibility from the beginning. 😅

The truth will out. It may take many agonizing years, but the light will shine on the truth.

Zionism = opium for immigrant Israelis to avoid their anti-semitism/holocaustal pains!? I guess so. Why did the Rothschild -Zionists, David Ben Gurion & friends not accomodate the native Palestinians? Which could have been easy: a cheap workforce. Because the Rothschild funded Jewish Agency 1920 's, had the Haganah, Irgun and Lehi people in charge, who had a murderous terrorist minset and a record of assassinaitons of political figures. Their stated objective was: a Jewish homeland WITHOUT Palestinians (Ilan Pappé, 2006).

As Ex-Muslim born in Middle East in 1957, I am wondered why Communists and Mullah, Sheikh, Imams and Ayatollahs live much more than regular people??? Probably they really don't give damn about anything except repeating same BS all their life!!!! If you don't let these people to use 20 words like (imperialism, Socialism, Fascism, Capitalism, colonialism, Democratic, ) they really can't make any sentences.

Every mom on earth agrees with me NO ONE ON EARTH HAS A RIGHT TO terrorize a family AND TAKE LIVING CHILDREN KEEP THe MOM AND HER CHILDREN WITH EACH

Even in his advanced years, still as sharp as ever! Mr. Chomsky, one of my favorite speakers...even though I disagree with much of his entrenched left wing talking points. Great discussion.

What if... Palestine and Israel were located on opposite ends of the globe? NOTHING!!! Because the demon is Zionism and Zionism has contaminated both Christians and Jews alike. And they, are everywhere. So, you cannot 'bomb, shoot, knife or poison an ideology. But what I can say is, if you remove Zionism from the geopolitical equation, peace will break out everywhere on this planet as Zionism is neither a religion nor a state. It's just an idea. An ideology. Take these words to the bank and sleep well tonight.

My Dear Gabor, thankyou for your truth, you and Howard Zinn, who is now gone, but left a treasure for us, meaning generations of us in the U.S. are FINALLY hearing and reading the truth. Your books are priceless and Zinn's book 'A People's History if the United States'. Thankyou for your scholarship and hard work to willing look at truth even when it is painful AND your courage to tell the truth to the powers that be. Thank you!

I wish such discussions happened in India discussing Indian trauma faced by Dalits, adivasis(indigenous), kashmiris and present day muslims and many more

I m addicted to Ilan Pappé ... Listening to him release the pain... temporaryly

This was such a great conversation. So good. I just keep going back to through the timeline of Israel and Palestinian history and the story really hasn’t changed. The complaints and struggles have always been the same. I love listening and learning about it through the healing and trauma lens.

As a puertorican woman, I became acutely aware of the trauma that colonialism paved to my view of the world. It's very traumatic that my family and friends can't see how our people ,language ,culture, and history decimated . First came by Spain and their thirst of conquering my island, and then the USA completed the mission to oppress and denied my ability to live free and celebrate my taino heritage and the audacity to claimed that we owe trillions to the USA while not allowing me to have a voice by way of denying my right of voting and representation. Denial is a tool used by the survivors to deal with assimilation. Thanks to you, gentlemen, for validating my feelings ❤🇵🇷

Chomsky getting his ass handed to him ... ukposts.info/have/v-deo/kmSTgXqvb397tmg.html

Thank you so much all for this wonderful presentation

Prof Pappé and Dr Maté and the organizers, thank you so much. I have learnt so much from those 2 amazing people over the years through their books and activism. God bless them. Very eye opening to how seemingly separate problems are interlinked. How at the end of the day politics and social dynamics boil down to a set of beliefs. Also, the analogy between rigid ideologies like Zionism and addiction was powerful in many ways.

Kalau islam memprioritaskan kehalalan kebenaran keadilan dll walau dimusui. Allahswt pasti esa, kalau dua pasti bebenturan kekuasaan. Kita ikut anis menyita koruptor koruptor yang diloloskan hakim hakim titipan dll. Sebenarnya kekayaan alam emas dll itu cukup untuk memuliakan segenap rakyat dll mati syahid langsung merasa disurga
