Leftist American lecturer gives INSANE excuse for Hamas terrorism

Anti-Israel protests continued around the world over the weekend. A massive pro-Palestinian protest took over streets in London, a UMass lecturer was filmed refusing to condemn Hamas' terrorism, and a mob of Muslims in the Russian region of Dagestan stormed an airport to hunt down Jews as a flight from Tel Aviv was scheduled to land. What is going on, Glenn asks, when even Hillary Clinton equates calls for a ceasefire to support for Hamas, while many on the Left have continued to condemn Israel? And where do we go from here? But there is a silver lining, Glenn says: At least Kamala Harris has a super stern message for Iran!

GLENN: So let me just show you some things that happened overt weekend. You'll roll the drone shot here, over London.

There was a massive, massive pro-Palestinian London.

Rally in London.

And it was -- I mean, London is lost. London is lost.

I was just there. And there were parts of London, you just didn't go to. It's no-go zones. It's like Paris. Just no-go zones.

Look at how many supporters of the Palestinians there are. You cannot have a nation that is divided between life and death.

You can't. And I'm sorry, but if you're choosing Hamas, you are choosing death.

There is no ifs, ands, or buts.

It is so very. Even, I don't know if you heard this, Hillary Clinton came out and said, anybody who is asking for a cease-fire for Hamas, doesn't understand Hamas. I mean, Hillary Clinton came out and said that.

And it's right. Meanwhile, here in America, here's a -- a UMass teacher, that will not condemn Hamas.

Listen.

VOICE: As I tried to explain.

VOICE: There is no explaining, to terrorists. You're a professor, and you won't do it.

VOICE: Okay. But I'm also --

VOICE: (inaudible)

VOICE: What is that?

VOICE: -- at night was terrorism to begin with.

VOICE: Like, I think that there's --

VOICE: How do you define --

VOICE: As something that is -- something that is in the Jewish Corps peace statement, that resonated with me. Is that reality all begins on the Eastern clock. right? And so if you start the clock on Saturday, reality is one way. If you start the clock, you know, in like weeks prior, it's going to sound different. No. If you start the clock, you know, in 1938, it looks a different way.

VOICE: You're a professor. Will you conduct terrorism?

VOICE: I'm not --

VOICE: It's a yes or no question.

VOICE: It's not a yes or no question.

VOICE: You think terrorism is justified if it's an excuse? Is that what you're saying?

VOICE: So that's putting words in my mouth, as you know.

VOICE: I'm asking you say yes or no. You can't do it. You're a professor. You're smart enough to know this.

GLENN: Okay. Stop. This is amazing. This is amazing.

It doesn't matter where you start the clock.

Somebody that walks into an innocent family's house and guns them down, rapes the children, kidnaps people, I don't care when you start the clock. That's terrorism, period. That's all it is.

It's mass murder.

It's psychotic behavior. It's the embracing of death and everything that is evil.

Just like you can start the clock on -- on, you know, September 10th, 2001.

You can start the clock on September 11th, 1972. And it still is mass murder. Still mass murder.

We have to be very clear.

And these people who have been playing the word games with us, are very dangerous at this point.

Your soul, truly, so you shouldn't be is in jeopardy now.

On this very issue.

You can want peace, you can worry about the Palestinians.

I prayed last night. My family got down. We prayed last night. For the Palestinian people. I don't want any of them hurt.

But I do want the psychopaths, that just revel in blood, to be dead.

I do.

So now you have this huge rally in London. Let me tell you what happened in Germany.

Here cut eight. German protesters, chanting. In Hungary. Look at this.

Allahu Akbar. How do you think this is going to end?

This is what happens, when you just let anyone in that doesn't share your culture.

How do you think that is going to end?

In the most disturbing. I've got a few cuts of this. This is the most disturbing.

Cut five. This is from Russia.

A Muslim mob goes into the airport, in Russia, seeking to hunt down passengers, from Tel Aviv.

They storm the airport.

They're looking for any Jews.

Here is -- look at this.

Here is cut six.

The Russian mob surrounding and questioning a suspected Jew.

"Uzbekistan. I'm a Uzbek."

"Hey, make sure no one walks past us. You are trying to mess with us?"

"Calm down. I've got his passport."

So this guy is -- this guy is surrounded by -- what would you say, 50 people, Stu?

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Surrounded on all sides.

They've taken his passport. They've taken his phone. Get his phone. Get his phone.

And they're accusing him of being a Jew.

STU: Jeez.

GLENN: I don't know. I don't know, gang. How far are we, from World War II?

Final one, here's the Russian mob, firing warning shots, at the police. Not the other way around.
(firing)
GLENN: That's the mob shooting at police. Trying to get them to abandon their post at the gate at the airport.

This is Russia.

Now, what do you think has empowered this?

This is empowered because Vladimir Putin met with the leaders of Hamas.

I think it was Friday.

Hamas released the Russian kidnapped individuals. So they're back at home in mother Russia. Do you think that maybe Russia is on the wrong side?

Do you think you're far from another program in Russia?

This is why Israel exists. And it must.

Meanwhile, Kamala Harris was on 60 Minutes. And here's her message to Iran.

VOICE: What was the message to Iran?

VOICE: Don't.

VOICE: As President Biden said, just don't.

VOICE: Exactly. One word. Pretty straightforward.

GLENN: I bet that chills them to the bone.

So where do we go from here?

Really, it's really, it's simple. It's really, really simple.

For those of us who haven't closed their hearts to the Palestinians or to the Israelis, we haven't closed our hearts because we're angry at everything that is going on.

Look at what -- how you're being pushed. How is it in 2009, I was warning about anti-Semitism. That we would see -- this is a quote.

We would see the hatreds of old.

Rise again. Remember how they used to make fun of me. Having Nazi symbols and things, on my chalkboard.

Maybe now, they're beginning to understand why.

I wasn't comparing people to Nazis. I was saying, at the time, this kind of philosophy comes from Marxism. It comes from collectivism.

It comes from do the duty of the society. In societies that are collective like this, mobs are allowed to form like this.

Because it's what's good for the majority. And sometimes the majority goes insane. That's why we are the nation of the individual. Not the majority.

Not mob rule. But look at how the mobs have gathered around the left.

It's all mob behavior.

And like I just said, what do you think -- how did that happen in Russia? Where they'll just throw you off of a roof, or just shoot you someplace. And nobody will ask you any questions.

How do you think you will get away with that. With all the airport security, and your face on it.

You were fine. The state is not going to do anything about it. Because the state most likely agrees with you.

The state can use you as a useful idiot.

What has our government done?

Every time there's a mob on the street. What happens?

They dismiss it.

There's no police. There's no FBI, informants, among the -- you have ever heard of an FBI. Well, we've had several FBI informants on the street.

I haven't heard that ever.

The only time I hear that, is when things look a little suspicious for January 6th.

If that was a legitimate mob, they all deserve to go to jail.

Those who were doing, you know, damage to the building. And breaking the law. Hurting policemen.

Which didn't happen.

We now know.

Thank you, Blaze.

So what are we creating here?

I contend we are creating the same exact scenario. Let me give you something that maybe -- maybe we should pay attention to. I don't know.

Illegal border crossers have just surpassed ten million people, since Biden took office.

That's our guess. We don't know. 10 million people now have been reported to illegally entering the United States. Since January 2021.

This is the largest number in American history.

10 million people. So you know, that is 3 million more than New York City?

10 million, you're starting to enter Los Angeles territory.

You're in one of the top ten cities in -- top five cities for sure, in America.

And we don't have any idea who they are.

Well, we kind of do. We kind of do.

Remember, they're all good, hard-working families.

According to a source inside the Border Patrol, the influx of special interest migrants. I'll give you the definition of that here in a second.

Continues.

In fact, 100 Syrian and 50 Iranian nationals have been apprehended by the Border Patrol, since the beginning of this month.

150 Syrian and Iranian nationals, had been apprehended, had been caught on our border, in the last -- what is it? The 29?

The last 29 days. Now, how many have crossed?

Oh, by the way, these are not families.
These are individuals coming in by themselves.

The Biden administration would say, well, this is because, you know, there's -- there's war in that area. Then why aren't you coming with your family. Why are you coming just by yourself?

All of you. All of you.

THE GLENN BECK PODCAST

Why Your Actions Matter More Than Words in the Eyes of God

Glenn Beck and Eric Metaxas expose the spiritual crisis gripping America’s churches — a moment they compare to Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s warning before World War II. As the culture descends into moral confusion, too many Christians retreat into silence, claiming faith while refusing to act. Together, they argue that true belief demands courage — that “faith without works is dead” — and warn that neutrality in the face of evil is itself a form of complicity.

Watch the FULL Interview HERE

Is Socialism replacing the American dream?

The American Dream used to mean freedom and the chance to build your own life through hard work, faith, and independence. But today, it’s been replaced by comfort, consumption, and debt. Glenn Beck breaks down how America traded liberty for lifestyle, why socialism is gaining ground, and what it will take to reclaim the real American Dream before it disappears for good.

GLENN: I don't know if you saw the visualizing the American dream, Stu.

You know, what the American dream actually is, is that you can forge your own way.

You can -- you know, you can have a scrap of land, and grow your own food if up.

You can, you know, go to school. Not go to school.

You can find a job. If you're qualified for it, you have an equal chance of getting it, you know, based on merit.

But the percentage of Americans who say the American dream is retirement is 86 percent. Health care, 86 percent. Owning a home, 85. Raising two kids, 78. Owning a car, 72. Vacations, 71. Pets, 66. A wedding, 55 percent. That's the American dream, I can get married.

The American dream, if that's what you think, they've now estimated, the cost per household over the cost -- over the lifetime, retirement is $1.6 million. Owning a home now, 30-year mortgage, 20 percent you want to, is $957,594. Owning a car, buying and finance to begin with new cars every ten years is now $900,000 over your lifetime. Raising two kids to 18, plus four years of public college, $876,092. Two kids. Health care, over your lifetime, spending from ages 22 to 85, $414,000. Vacations, annual vacation from '22 to '85, $180,000. One dog and one cat for 11 to 13 years is $40,000!

That's more expensive than a wedding. The engagement ring, the ceremony, and the reception is now estimated to be $38,200.

There's a reason socialism is doing well. You look at that, and you're like, wow. I mean, if that's the American dream. And for a lot of people, that is the American dream!

That's not what the American dream is supposed to be, but, you know, once -- you know, once Woodrow Wilson and FDR got a hold of us and they started advertising, it became stuff instead of freedom. It became stuff. And, you know, when there's a new report out. Let me see if I have that.

There's a new report out now that shows, first time home buyers made up just 21 percent of the home purchases. That's the lowest on record.

The typical age of repeat buyers hit an all-time high of '62. The median downtowns, reaching 23 percent.

The highest since 2023.

And also, where is it?

The last one is -- the median age for first time home buyers, in 1981, it was 29 years old.

I'm sorry. Yeah. Twenty-nine years old. In 2021, it was 33 years old.

What is it this year?

Median age, first time homeowner, forty.

You're 40 before you can buy any kind of home. That puts these things that people want, dream about, out of reach, until you're 40?

You know, 29 is one thing. But if you're not seeing -- you're not seeing your life really kind of settling down until you're 40, I -- I can understand why you're like, you know what, this system doesn't work.

Because you've never seen it work. It's betrayed you.

Or so you've been sold. It's betrayed you.

And everything is being pushed out of your reach. And when you're young, the one thing you're not is patient.

And at 40, I can see why people are not, you know, yeah. Well, socialism is neat because capitalism isn't working. How would you respond to that?

STU: I mean, it's more lengthy than we have time for. But I would say that the response to, you know, you thinking that you want a home is not to embrace an ideology that murders 100 million people.

That's not -- that's not a good answer to the problem that you think you have.

GLENN: But they're not learning that anywhere.

They're not -- that is our responsibility! To teach those things. Because they're not learning it anywhere.

Glenn Beck Warns of 3 Economic Outcomes That Could Change EVERYTHING | Ep 467

Socialism is spreading fast among America’s youth, and the shocking election of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani for mayor in New York City marks a major cultural and economic shift. Glenn exposes how runaway debt, record home prices, AI job disruption, and the collapsing stake in capitalism have led many Millennials and members of Gen Z to embrace socialism and communism. He reveals the three possible economic futures for 2026: two that are disastrous and one that could change everything if the Trump administration’s global financial overhaul succeeds. Plus, Justin Haskins, president of the Heartland Institute, joins to reveal some terrifying truths about why young Americans are embracing socialism from a poll he conducted with Rasmussen Reports.

The world is about to realize the DEADLY enemy we face

"The world doesn't understand yet. We're already in World War III," Glenn Beck warns. "That foe is not China. That foe is militant Islam." Glenn explains the battle we're currently facing and what's to come if we don't wake up soon...

GLENN: From New Jersey, it's Brian. Hello, Brian.

CALLER: Hello!

GLENN: Hey.

CALLER: Yeah. Thanks for taking the calls today.

GLENN: Sure.

CALLER: Yeah. I'm worried that we are headed towards another French Revolution-style because we have entire generations. Or actually people just not being heard by their representatives.

GLENN: Hmm.

CALLER: And it's not just here. It's around the world.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

I -- actually, I had scheduled for this time, I'll just do it some other time. Talking about what's happening in -- in England.

I think England is headed for a Civil War. And -- and it's very close.

I mean, you can't put 4,000 people. 4,000 people, in jail, or try them for hate crimes. And speech crimes.

You can't -- you can't do it. In England!

You can't do that in one year. And expect people to just put up with it!

You can't -- you know, we're -- we're -- America doesn't understand yet.

The world doesn't understand.

We're in World War III. We're already in World War III.

I don't know when it becomes a hot war. Or even a war that we on our side recognize. But we are in World War III. And that -- that foe is not China.

That foe is militant Islam, period. And, you know, when we have a situation to where people are -- when the government is just like, no. It's not a problem.

It's not a problem. You know. You've got illegals all over.

It's not a problem.

It's not a problem.

It is a problem. Don't tell me what -- what the problems are not!

Because we're the ones living it!

You're the experts, who keep telling us, no. It's going to work out fine.

And it doesn't work out fine. And it just gets worse and worse.

Oh. We can spend this money. No. It looks like we can't spend this money. Oh, we can afford this. No. It looks like we can't afford this.

You know, if we do this with Ukraine, it will work out fine. No, it didn't, did it? These endless wars, all of this stuff, don't tell me what the problem is. Listen to the people and start talking to the people. Honestly, this is the reason why I'm doing this today. I -- I need to hear from you.

I need to know what's on your mind, so I stay focused and -- and clear on what America is saying.

Because I don't think -- look, you know, me taking phone calls is -- is not a true representation of anything, but it does give me a sense of -- of where you are, as an audience. Maybe not as America, but as an audience. And there are lots of things that concern me. But I want to hear it from you.
But I think you're right! We're headed for real, real trouble. All you need is real economic trouble.

You start getting real, true economic trouble. 1930s kind of depression stuff. And we're in Civil War.

Dan, Oregon. Welcome!

CALLER: Hello, Glenn. How are you?

GLENN: I'm great!

CALLER: Yeah. Good. It's been a long time.

I guess it's been over ten years, since I've had a chance to talk with you. I was one of your first insiders. I was listening to you, since you were in Florida.

GLENN: Wow. Wow.

CALLER: So it's been a long -- yeah. It has been. And I can't say I've enjoyed all of it.
(laughter)

GLENN: Neither have I!

STU: I can't say that either, I'll be honest with you.

CALLER: You know, you were talking on yesterday's show, reminiscing with Stu about how you guys started. And I remember those old shows. And, you know, at the end of the -- the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: Right.

CALLER: And there was a lot more entertainment. I remember I laughed a lot.

GLENN: Oh, yeah. I know. I know. Those days are long dead.
(laughter)

STU: There's nothing to laugh about now.

CALLER: Yeah. I -- I'm 78. I still work 40 hours a week. I love my job.

GLENN: Good for you.

CALLER: Been married for 55 years. I have seven kids.

GLENN: Good for you.

CALLER: I've got a daughter -- I've got a daughter who is in her 40s. And she has severe TDS. She -- we don't -- I mean, we're not cutting each other off. She hasn't done that at all. We're still very close as a family. But she was down visiting the other day, and got into a conversation with my wife. And I wasn't in the room. But Kathy said it was just like listening to one of those young people out on the street that was being interviewed by the news media. And she was -- and she was in tears about it. My wife and my daughter both.

And, I mean, I love her, and I continue to support her. She's a single woman, not by choice. She just never found the right guy.

GLENN: Yeah.

CALLER: And I really think that's part of the problem. Because she started reading -- back when Trump was first running, she started reading all of this stuff about him being misogynistic and all of this stuff.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

CALLER: And it's just gotten worse. I -- I'm at a loss. I really am. Because I -- like, I see the country doing better. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. But I still feel like that at least right now, we're doing better as a whole. But what do we do about -- what do we do about our kids about -- she went to Portland State University for the last two --

GLENN: Oh, jeez, for the love of --

CALLER: Well, yeah. For the last two years, she went to -- she went to a little college in Idaho called Ricks for the first two years, and Utah State.

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

CALLER: And then she served a mission for our church in Brazil and came home, but then she went to Portland State University. And it just seems to have gone downhill from there.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. So, Dan, I think you are suffering from the same thing that almost all parents are suffering from. If you're not suffering from this, then, I mean, God bless you. You know, get on your knees and thank God. Because you are a lucky, lucky family. Everybody has in their family. I have it in my family.

And you have to ask yourself, what is your goal?

My -- what is your goal with your daughter? Your real goal?

CALLER: My real goal is for us to be united eternally. That's my goal. That's my goal as a father and has been to teach her --

GLENN: And how -- and how is that going to happen with politics?

CALLER: We just stay together as a family regardless of what politics does.

GLENN: That's exactly right. Exactly right.

I think we're in a place now where as parents, you can ask your kids, but it has to be honest. It cannot be trying to win. It has to be honest. How did you get there?

I mean, I remember. You know, we've talked about this before. And you didn't believe that before. What has changed?

Can you help me with that?

I would like to see what you're reading, or what that was.

And just ask questions. But they have to be honest. They can't be, you know, because I'm setting you up. Because I want to change your mind.

But keep a dialogue open with them. And just love them!

Just love them!

Because if you do anything else, you're going to drive them away. And then they're really lost. So just love them.

CALLER: Oh, I know that. Glenn, when she was young -- when she was young, I considered her one of the elect. And the Scripture says, that in the last days, even the elect are going to be deceived. And that's what I'm seeing. But everything you've said, I -- I am doing. I'm doing it that way. Because I know --

GLENN: Okay. Good. Then you didn't need to -- I appreciate it. I'm so glad you called me. But you didn't need to -- my advice, you already have it down. You're a very wise man.
