And it's amazing how similar the controversies were in the two countries.
You know, Jefferson wanted an agrarian country.
Ben-Gurion wanted an agrarian Israel country.
Hamilton wanted a commercial country.
Netanyahu wanted a commercial Israel.
And so we're very similar, very similar conflicts.
And I think people will enjoy the book.
Thanks for asking.
Well, let me give you an example.
10 minutes before you went on, the predecessor on your show described Jeffrey Epstein as a convicted pedophile.
He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year and 10-month-old person.
Well, I think it's a both. Obviously, it's anti-Western, anti-Christian, but it's primarily anti-Semitic in terms of the demonstrations that have occurred. To give an example, a bunch of thugs, one from the law school, one from
The Divinity School and a few other people surrounded an Israeli student, put an Arab garb on his head, wouldn't allow him to move, wouldn't allow him to say or do anything. And the school said they would punish these students for their harassing behavior. Instead, the Divinity School made one of them the class marshal, which is the highest honor of graduation.
And the other one was given a $65,000 scholarship from the Harvard Law School in order to continue his anti-Israel work at an anti-Israel organization. So in one respect, it understates the problem of anti-Semitism. Harvard not only tolerates it, It teaches it in the Divinity School, which is a cesspool in the name of Christianity, in the false name of Christianity.
The Divinity School, this is according to the Harvard report, not me, according to the Harvard report, is a centerpiece of anti-Semitism at Harvard. The public health school, similarly. The Carr Center for Human Rights has become a sewer for anti-Semitism. So there is a lot of anti-Semitism. A lot of it is a manifestation of anti-Western, anti-Christian values.
But the core group that is being attacked because they are a distinct minority are Jews, Israelis, Zionists. Christian Zionists. You know, in my book, The Preventive State, I predicted what happened tragically last week in Washington, D.C. I predicted that there'd be shootings. How did I know there'd be shootings?
Because you'll recall this, Megan, I defended many protesters in the 60s and 70s, anti-war protesters. I saw some of my own clients become murderers. Kathy Boudin became a murderer. The line between violent protests, making bombs, shooting somebody is a very thin line.
And so I think we have to take preventive action, including, for example, one of the most important preventive actions you can ever take. is denying people the right to come into the country and deporting them if they engage in illegal conduct. That goes back to the Bible. It's called exile. We call it deportation. They called it exile.
People were exiled when they threatened the legitimacy of the country. So we can take a lot of... preventive measures to assure that these shootings like last week didn't occur. You know, I got an honorary degree the day after the shootings. The school that gave me the degree had to redouble their security.
They had to give me a security plan telling me how to escape to make sure that there were policemen there with shields to protect my life. because I'm an outspoken prominent Jew who supports Israel. And everybody has a target on their back. You know, they come for the Jews first, but it's not long before they come for other perceived enemies of the radical correct approach to life.
