Hands down one of the very best journalist-interviewers around, and has been for a long time. I love his work.
Any excuse to post this.

Agreed, if this was a brown Muslim, it would be on every front page.BBC News - Crossbow attack suspect put 'massacre' plans online

Otley run crossbow attack suspect dies, police confirm
The 38-year-old posted online before the planned violence and listed his targets.www.bbc.com
This is domestic terrorism. Just imagine this was a Muslim brown dude with a manifesto riddled with craziness. And it's hardly news right now. It should be everywhere
And this guy was clearly influenced by red pill incel stuff. Again men.

Watched this last night.
You can see why it's an unfathomable and unfixable problem.
Of course it's easily fixable if you delete everyone's memory.
Humans main problem is forgetting, that in the first instance, thats what we ALL are.
Louis is so good, and brave tbh.
Its irrational worry IMO.
Spent majority of life in East London and Essex where its massively multicultural and had zero issues, in actual fact alot of live and let live attitudes in the area. People putting videos of isolated incidents on social media of people being approached in Whitechapel in the middle of the night. I can tell you now its not indicative of the majority of Muslim and Bangla community in the area, they could not care one jot about what or who people are and in fairness neither do the gentrified white population of Mile End, Wapping or Victoria park.
Its always those in the costal towns way from the impact that seemingly have these issues IMO
They aren't very thinky.Even if I am still left questioning why everyone else hasn’t grown up
Indeed sadly it is unfixable
To be honest I think if anyone is to blame it is us British people and our imperialist thinking. We always tried to play GHod. Some of the time with decent intentions. Sometimes out of sheer convenience.
Creating the Israeli nation and assigning them land precisely where we did was well motivated but completely crazy.
We placed millions of Jewish people who had witnessed or been subjected to the worst humanity has to offer then dropped them in a region they were unfamiliar with. I cannot imagine the things they had witnessed on a day to day basis. Really an entire nation experiencing PTSD
At same time we had forcefully moved all the Arabs to make room for this new group. Shifted them out their homes and expected them to accept 50% of their territory. Just cos Britain says so
What on earth were we thinking
In spite of how everything panned out I don’t think it was in the original Jewish settlers hearts to displace anyone. I think they had gone through so much trauma they quite naturally had a low tolerance for any kind of resistance
I genuinely think in the minds of a lot of Israelis any Arab who throw a rock probably triggered memories of their oppression by Nazis.
But after our colonial rooster up we’d forced millions of Muslims out the way
Two people - two religions with their own unique ties to the region. Now super packed with their own legitimate grievances . Both supercharged by their own displacements and subjugations.
Both groups of human beings that both have narratives which make complete sense to anyone who hears either side
And to top it off we Brits made sure it was a holy religious site for both Muslims and Jews to add maxum potency
How was it ever going to work?
We roostered up the same with India.
I hope that as humanity advances and empires are now dead that someday I m a few hundred years the situation somehow repairs itself and it just never happens again
Forced mass movements to create countries are not normal and not anything we should be involved in
It’s not Jews or Muslims to blame. It’s us. And we are the privileged few that don’t have to live with it all day to day
Are these people members of a religious community?
They might be priests.Are these people members of a religious community?
Point me to flashpoint that wasn’t already a tribal or religious conflict well before Britain handed the reins on to another party?
Our role in Palestine was to get killed by both sides before the US led on the creation of Israel.
Britain’s role historically was to secure a peace where possible so that trade could be generated and then protecting these against the French/Dutch/Americans/Spanish or whoever.
Are these people members of a religious community?
I think that is the point
But only religions and the BBC protect them.Yeh a tongue in cheek quip
These people exist everywhere
For me it's the key.But only religions and the BBC protect them.
And the royalsBut only religions and the BBC protect them.
