I had all this information. I wanted to see it. And I think my biggest takeaway is— as simple as this sounds, is that these people fucking hate each other. I mean, hate each other. I've never seen that kind of hatred. I remember when I was in Iraq with Team 5 and we were driving through towns, people would look at us. We'd be in those RG trucks. I can't remember what they were called. Like,

and those trucks, you know, looking out, and they'd be looking in with this look that felt, I hadn't seen that look a lot. You know what I'm talking about, like die. But when I was in Israel, the anger and fear was so palpable. And I know it's on the other side. And I don't know, man, like, I just think like, where my mind starts going is, okay, Israel did this shit. Palestinians did this shit.

It's been going back and forth since 1941 or whatever the, you know, 1907, depending on how far, whatever, however far back you want to go. Because I've tried to go back and, well, okay, it was their fault and it was their fault. And the English gave it to the Israelis and that fucked everything up. And then World War, and it's this Rubik's Cube that you never solve.

Bottom line is, like, they fucking hate each other. They cannot work it out. Like, it's like, you know, two kids that are fighting, they just can't stop. They're never gonna stop. And I came out of there with the sense of, and looking at so many Israelis I met, The energy you get is, please, we need help, right? And yes, they're horrific what's happening over there, right?

These kids dying in Gaza and these innocent people dying and horrific what happened. It's horrific. And I'm not like, at this point, I don't know what to justify and who's right and who's wrong at this point. It's just, if it's going to stop, they need help. That was my take. They need someone to come in and say, you go over the fuck here, you go over the fuck here, stop. Yeah.

And I hope that can happen.

And I hope that can happen.
Yeah, it's super complicated, but at the end of the day, if you just look at it, just practically, they can't fix it without other people, in my opinion, getting involved. It's like there has to be help from us. There has to be help from Saudi Arabia, from UAE, from Qatar, from Egypt, from Jordan. They got to help. Europe's got to help. because they can't fucking figure it out.
