OMG!! -One of Israel's most popular podcasts

[womanofthehills]

Krystal Ball of “Breaking Points”

"People enjoy knowing that they are suffering"
This should put to bed the idea Israelis just don't know about Palestinian suffering. They know and many celebrate it. The dehumanization of Palestinians is so deep.

1. Also, many Israelis know and are speaking out against their government. I mean you can't

say just because you live in the USA you support trump and republicans can you? You also can't say maga doesn't exist.

Jews are human the same as the people who live in the USA. We aren't all the same. Some get off on the suffering of others and some fight against injustice.

[Traildogbob]

4. MAGA

Enjoy the suffering of immigrants the same way ICE Barbie and the circumcised dick head Mumbles do.
Are ALL of us masterbating to the shit in Florida, or “term one” baby theft of caged brown people like our most famous Jew, Stephen Miller. Does he represent all American Jewish people?
Not gonna get in the middle of the Gaza hell here, but we got no place condemning any brutality right now. Our whole history is packed with brutality of non whites, even though many of us are distrusted with it., the stench is on us all. And it all seems kind of hopeless under our own evil Natty Yahoo DICKtator.🍆🥔.
We and Israel are under sick evil control that love seeing suffering of people different.
And Hamas stands tall with their hate and murder too. We, MAGA and Trump, are now in bed with Saudi Arabia, where 9/11 terrorist were bred and raised. This world is packed with sick mother fuckers, and baby fuckers, many of them in full control with no ending them in sight. GQP.
Ant body hear of Putin. And the love fest with him and GQP? Is that all of us?

[MorbidButterflyTat]

57. Agree!

Completely.

[womanofthehills]

40. About 0.58 % of US population watch Fox

According to Grok. Average Fox viewer age is 60.

Young getting their info from their phones and “Breaking Points” with Krystal Ball & Saagar keeps getting more and more viewers.

[iemanja]

39. Yes, two leading Israeli human rights organizations have denounced genocide.

But unfortunately, too many dehumanize Palestinians, claim there are no civilians, and claim that Palestine is "Israel."

[yardwork]

2. Who has said that Israelis don't know?

Some support their government's actions and others do not. Like in the U.S.

And in my opinion the U.S. government's actions at our southern border and throughout the nation, combined with ripping away USAID, which has caused the death of millions in Africa, is a larger scale atrocity than Israel's.

I'm disgusted by the way some people ignore what the U.S. is doing and do nothing but complain about Israel.

We are worse.

[Traildogbob]

5. 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Preach, see my post here as well.
And speaking of Jewish people, if you want an hour plus of some needed laughter, you have to watch Mark Maron’s new HBO standup. First aired Friday. It was a great escape from all the world hell we are in that seems hopeless
The most I laughed “this term” of hell.

[David__77]

9. The US is responsible for Gaza. It is done with US weapons and logistical support.

Fighting to stop that flow of weapons and logistical support is targeted at US policie and not ignoring what the US is doing.

[stopdiggin]

24. might 'share' - or bear some measure of 'complicity'

But, "is responsible" stretches the case beyond any reasonable recognition or definition. The U.S. is not the architect of Gaza. That is simply false, and does not bear the weight of even cursory examination. And the hoary myth that the U.S. pulls all the strings for everything that happens in Israel - needs to be put to bed. Wasn't true then - definitely isn't true now. And "weapons" - and yada, yada - still doesn't begin to carry the argument across the finish line.

[David__77]

27. Complicity isn't about 'pulling strings' - it's about enabling atrocities.

If the U.S. provides 70% of Israel’s arms, funds its military, and vetoes ceasefires, how is it not responsible? Complicity isn’t about ‘pulling strings’ - it’s about enabling atrocities.

[stopdiggin]

31. and again with the "weapons"

and the very plain implication that, "It would all stop tomorrow, if .. "

No true. The Israeli government (with the support of majorities in public) - has told the U.S. to "pound sand" - on numerous occasions, and on numerous issues, down through the years.

[NH Ethylene]

3. That is a sweeping generalization.

I'm sure some Israelis feel that way. But I still believe that people are basically good and kind and caring, and would work to resist propaganda meant to build support for violence.

[Traildogbob]

6. Right!!!

Has anybody seen Fox smirking at our evil and cheering it on. Charlie Kirk and seems like thousands of hate riddled podcasters cheering our torture camps? And many of them are now Trump cabinet heads. Or even elected “leaders”. Until we clean up our own shit, we need to shut the hell up about others.
They may be, no are, as helpless to stop it as we are.

[womanofthehills]

45. Interesting- Charlie Kirk had some pro Palestine speakers at his Turning Points

Independent, podcaster and comic Dave Smith, a Jew, gave a very pro Palestine talk and he had most of the young conservative audience with him. Kids in both parties more pro Palestine because they are watching a genocide on their phone daily.

[Traildogbob]

50. My reference to Kirk

Was how he loves how WE are torturing Latinos,
And Fox smirks daily at the abuse cheering it on.
And his audience is all about killing Americans. “When does the shooting start”?
The original post seemed to applaud the popular podcaster stating the Jewish people were enjoying the killing of Palestine people. Well we have plenty of popular podcasters cheering on our own torture and de humanization of innocent different people.
I am sickened by the Natty Yahoo slaughtering, but blaming all of Israel with his sick shit is as off base as blaming all Americans for ICE Barbie and Miller glee for killing none whites, and even whites that do not bow to them.
And our own Natty Yahoo and his cult have no interest in Putin wiping out every man, women
And child in his way.
The whole world is full of sick murdering assholes, and they control all media, economies and enough of their people to keep em in power to keep killing “those others” but equating them to animals.
We have a full closet of wiping out populations, and not for our Freedoms.
I was not fighting for Red White and Blue when I joined, and never for Nixon and his agenda. I fought to stay alive and have the back of those with me.
Hamas sucks, Palestinians are being slaughtered, and Natty and his cult that support him need to meet justice.
So does Trump et al.
When did Kirk serve and the young Kirk Fans, to stop mass murderers?
And the head mass murderer when I served was my commander in Chief, sending us to do his and his greedy profiteers work, whether we agreed to it or not. Mostly, NOT.
And Kirk is all in on Trump so he has no credit with his concern for Palestinian's.

[SickOfTheOnePct]

51. I would bet...

…that a number even lower than .58% of young people are watching a “genocide” on their phones every day.

[hedda_foil]

7. So this American podcaster is supposedly one of the most popular in Hebrew speaking Israel?

Not.

[Celerity]

35. They are in Israel, not the US. Naor Meningher grew up in Israel and Eytan Weinstein moved there 18 years ago.

Two Nice Jewish Boys

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Nice_Jewish_Boys

Two Nice Jewish Boys is a weekly Israeli English-language podcast. It is hosted by Naor Meningher and Eytan Weinstein. The podcast is about Israeli life, society, and politics, and has hosted a number of prominent guests. The podcast claims to be Israel's longest-running English-language podcast.

History

Two Nice Jewish Boys was established in 2016 by Naor Meningher and Eytan Weinstein. Meningher, an independent film maker who grew up in Israel, and Weinstein, who moved to Israel from Birmingham, Alabama around 2007, met at Tel Aviv University's Steve Tisch School of Film and Television. Speaking to The Jerusalem Post in 2017, Meningher stated that his motivation to start the podcast were "Zionism and his love for Israel"; Weinstein felt that an English-language podcast would benefit people who had recently moved to Israel. Both said that Two Nice Jewish Boys was also aimed at the Jewish community outside Israel. Since 2017, the podcast has been hosted on The Jewish Journal.

The success of Two Nice Jewish Boys, which is self-funded, led to the creation of The Melting Podcast, which is hosted by Meningher and published by the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation, in 2017. The Melting Podcast is likewise aimed at English-speaking immigrants to Israel.

The podcast has hosted a number of high-profile guests, including Michael Oren, Dan Shechtman, Chaim Topol, Ania Bukstein, Tamar Zandberg, Robert Aumann, Deborah Lipstadt, Uri Geller, and Moshe Koppel.

2024 comments on the Gaza war

In September 2024, Two Nice Jewish Boys drew criticism for an episode about the Gaza war. In the episode Weinstein stated that if he was given "a button to just erase Gaza", he "would press it in a second", and claimed that this reflected the feelings of Israelis in general. The clip was later set to private. In an online argument, Weinstein denied that this was a call for genocide, and called his statement a "hypothetical". Around the same time, X removed a tweet from the podcast's account calling for the destruction of Gaza.

8. MAGA Israelis.

[cadoman]

10. tbh it doesn't look all _that_ popular

https://2njb.com/

https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoNiceJewishBoys

Still, I will condemn this podcast and ask other pro-Israel and non-racists to join me in condemning it. This rhetoric has no place in our world and does not represent Israel as a whole.

Our true enemy is Hamas, who committed acts of sexual terrorism on October 7th, and whom Israel is justified in pursuing in her defense of her right to exist.

[David__77]

11. I understand that some people think killing tens of thousands of children helps out Israelis.

It seems to me that there’s a problem with that.

[Richard58]

13. This goes well beyond "defending itself."

Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and plans to ethnically cleanse the survivors. That is the reality. Nothing Hamas has done justifies this. It is brutality in the extreme. Anyone who supports what Israel is doing now is a monster. Case closed!

[Richard58]

12. I hate to burst your bubble

But according to a recent poll by Haaretz 80% of Israelis approved of what their government is doing in Gaza while 18% think they are not being harsh enough and only 2% think that the Israeli government has gone too far. That says a lot about Israeli society. They overwhelmingly loved the idea of genociding the Palestinians. That's the reality. Don't try to pretend this is just the fault of Netanyahu. The Israeli public overwhelmingly supports him.

[hay rick]

30. Link?

[EdmondDantes_]

56. Here's an article discussing the poll

https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/majority-israelis-support-expulsion-palestinians-gaza-poll

The 82% is for the expulsion of all Palestinians from Gaza. 47% favored killing all Palestinians in Gaza. 56% favored expelling Israeli Palestinians as well. It's not good news.

[Susan Calvin]

14. I'm not going to listen to that.

I don't think I could stand it.

[debsy]

15. One of my coworkers is a Russian Jew

Her daughter lives in Israel. In my last conversation, shortly after the October attack by Hamas, she stated that Palestinians were ALL animals and did not deserve to live. That was and will always be the last time I ever spoke to her. It is so ironic how people can’t see when they become those of whom they were most afraid.

[debsy]

16. She also watches Fox

[womanofthehills]

43. Not even one percent of Americans watch Fox

This is 2025!

[David__77]

17. The Israeli president also called Palestinians "human animals" in justifying cutting off food and water to Gaza.

Terrible stuff: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinians_as_animals_in_Israeli_discourse

[Mossfern]

18. That's one person

I'm not defending her at all - but you say it was shortly after the October 7th atrocities. Not many Jewish people were thinking rationally about Palestinians back then considering the anguish they were feeling. Hate begets hate. Think honestly, how would you feel if your child was in the middle of the horrendous attack on innocents that day.

Palestinians have a deep hatred for Jews. My grandfather who traveled to the US through Palestine at the turn of the century (the last one) warned me about Palestinians when I was a child... "They have curved swords and will cut your head off." This is NOT an new conflict. Israel was not a nation back then - it didn't exist. So what was the excuse?

Funny how American Jews are being attacked over Israel's actions in Gaza

[David__77]

19. Thankfully, not everyone listens to their grandfather's racial views.

[Mossfern]

21. It was his experience

Palestinians have always hated Jews.
Mind you, I didn't say "all".
Look at the original Hamas charter.

[David__77]

23. I hope you will reconsider making racialized generalizations.

Adding, after the fact, “I didn’t say ‘all’” doesn’t change a thing. Please consider that throughout history “the Jews” were unjustly accused of many things, and it would hardly have mattered if the accusers added “I didn’t say ‘all’”.

[Mossfern]

26. First of all

"Palestinian" is not a race. There are plenty of Arab Jews.

Second, my comment was not a generalization about Palestinians, it was to show that even before the establishment of the Nation of Israel there was conflict between Palestinians and Jewish people. As a matter of fact, there were no people called Palestinians back then.

I would appreciate it if you paid attention to the context of my post instead of trying to score points by accusing my grandfather ( and by proxy, me) of being racist.

[debsy]

20. I'm not saying every Israeli thinks like her.

I am saying I know someone who fits the description. As mentioned, she is only one person. I guess my point would be that they appear to be divided as well. Netanyahu is their Trump and he has his followers, no matter what.

[Dave Bowman]

34. Wouldn't be surprised if she was a MAGGAt.

She's obviously a horrible person.

[multigraincracker]

22. No mention about Palestinian Christians.

I now have two friends that are that. I wish everyone could hear the stories they have told me.

[gfarber]

25. Palestinian Woe

A podcaster named Krystal Ball,
Said, "Suffering's enjoyed by one and all."
She claimed Israelis know,
Of Palestinian woe,
And for many, that's not a tough call.

[womanofthehills]

44. Dem podcaster Krystal Ball interviewing American woman Dr who just came back from Gaza

Everyone is emancipated - even hospital staff. NY Dr was able to bring in her own food but it was checked to make sure she didn’t sneak in baby formula????

The hospital the doctor worked & lived at at was near food distribution center and whenever food was distributed- they got over a hundred men and boys injured at her hospital. Mostly men and boys as distribution centers were far from tents and women & children would have a hard time walking so many miles carrying a load.

Interview Starts at 40 minutes:

[The Blue Flower]

28. Dehumanization is on both sides

Palestinian kids are taught in their schools that murdering Jews is a glorious thing.

[Ursus Rex]

32. Yeah, it's a messed-up place.

Back in college, I had Palestinians (with PFLP and PLO posters) and Israelis (with IDF recruiting posters) tell me almost exactly the same story with names switched to show how deprived the other side is.

[Dan]

33. Well, well, I would like to say that I don't have a dog in that fight, but

We all do.

I do believe that there will come a day that Israel is going to regret what has been going on in their name.
For that matter, I do believe that America is going to regret what has been done in our name under Trump/GOP/MAGA.

There is a reckoning coming and there will be hell to pay, a bill that the good and bad will have to pay.

[Dave Bowman]

36. Some people who condone this genocide will have a rude awakening.

[Srkdqltr]

38. It was all fine for Isreal as long as Palestine didn't do much, once Palestine found a partner to help and fought back

Palestinians became terrorists. Seems Isreal then used it as a way, excuse, reason to take over the land which is the point all along. After all, settlers from Isreal have encroched on Palestine land for a long time.
Who knows where this will go.
I find it interesting that the Jews portray the Palestinian as animals when people back when, and some even now think of Jews as animals.
It's this calling others of another religion, color, tribe, country names that causes all this problem.
If you think someone is less, than you can kill them .
Is that what the world needs?
But than im an old woman Polak and Dago. And to me any name calling putdowns etc are unacceptable .

[Mossfern]

46. Who said that Jews see Palestinians as animals?

Have you read the Koran passages regarding Jews?
It was once part of the Hamas charter, changed only recently.
Was the change because of new found ethics or was it for PR?

Yes, there are the West Bank settlers and their supporters - but that is an extremist minority.

[Srkdqltr]

47. Of course. I have no clue. I just see what i see on the news, probably slanted, most likely slanted, but after all,

killing people trying to get food is against the Koran and the Bible. Killing animals is not. They are being killed, right? Trying to kill or move out people from where they live is against Koran and Bible but it has been done before and will probably be done again.
Not right or fair.

[Mossfern]

52. Killing Jews

is not against the Koran - or at least some Hadiths.

Can you cite where stuff like that is against the Koran and Torah?
Your logic makes no sense to me, so can you explain?

Islamic anti-Semitism begins, as do all things in Islam, with the Koran—the immutable, infallible, timeless words of Allah dictated to the Prophet—in which Jews are cursed with “abasement and humiliation” and are “deserving of Allah’s wrath” because they rejected Mohammed. Jews are further characterized as corrupt, treacherous rebels and infidels whose destiny is to be the enemy of the true believers. The debased status of Jews is communicated most starkly in the Koranic verse (5:60) referring to their transformation into “apes” or “apes and swine,” a motif repeated in the early Muslim biographies of Mohammed: just before he executed the adult males of the Banu Qurayza, a Medinan Jewish tribe, Mohammed called them “brothers of apes” or, in another version, “brothers of monkeys and pigs.” This odious phrase recurs repeatedly in Muslim writings right up to the present: in a 2002 radio broadcast, Sudanese dictator Omar al-Bashir called for jihad against the Jews, “those apes, pigs, and worshipers of calves.” And Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi, grand imam of Al-Azhar University, the most prestigious center of Muslim learning and theology, likewise has called Jews the “descendants of apes and pigs.” As the Tantawi example shows, such characterizations of Jews are not limited to fringe writers or marginalized extremists, as they are with present-day Christian anti-Semitism.

https://www.city-journal.org/article/islam-without-apologetics

This,of course, does not refer to all those of the Muslim faith, but I believe Hamas follows it. Just as Netanyahu supports the extremist West Bank settlers in the belief that God gave them the land and Ultra Orthodox right wing in Israel.

There are those of bad faith on both sides - that's why there's a war. But please don't believe that it is only some Jews who compare Muslims as animals - it goes both ways.

[Srkdqltr]

53. There is no way in the world i am going to debate holy books with you or anyone. That said killing people is wrong.

Killing people at a concert is wrong a nd killing people getting food is wrong. If you think it's right that's ok I don't care. Moving people off their land is wrong. If you think all this is good than im very sorry for us all.

[Mossfern]

54. Of course it's wrong

but don't bring religion into the equation.
Torah and Koran are filled with violence.

[haele]

58. In the Koran, Jews and Christians are "People of the Book" along with Muslims.

And there is about as much inerrancy in the Koran as there is in the Bible.
Opinions and Laws in the Koran are not consistent about how Jews and Christians (and other Muslims) are to be welcomed as co-religionists or as Heretics; it all depends on the version/translation the local Imam has (and is preaching from), and what the local attitudes are about constitutes tribal members, co-residence, and strangers.
Muslims, like Jews and Christians, living in more diverse cities like Cairo, Beruit, Jerusalem, Marrikesh, Jakarta, New York - see religious situations and requirements far differently than isolated rural or tribal Muslims who are only exposed to "outsiders are going to take your traditions away from you when they outstay their guest status" way of thinking.

[sarisataka]

42. Does this make the antisemitism "understandable"

Or will some now call it justified?

[Srkdqltr]

48. Antisemitism and bigotry is never ever acceptable or justified.

[sarisataka]

49. Sadly, I have seen it openly called the former

And alluded to the latter, dismissed as simply an “inconvenience”

[Bread and Circuses]

55. Republican voters share a lot with Israeli voters,
