    Have no intention of watching this video, but Murray is a nasty piece of work who conceals his hate behind a flurry of pseudo intellectual waffle. He was wrong on Iraq, and lost all credibility a long time ago

    0:00 well I’m joined Now by Douglas Murray who’s on the Gaza border Douglas let me ask you first of all why have you felt the need to go there

    0:11 well I’ve covered every Israeli conflict since the 2006 Lebanon war uh I’ve covered lots of other conflicts as well and this one is obviously an incredibly important conflict it’s one that is going to be crucial not just for Israel but for the region and I like to see these things first hand as you know appears

    0:30 I do and I’ve I’ve read your stuff for many years about these uh kind of uh conflicts let me ask you what is your what’s your feeling on the ground there I know you’ve been with some of the IDF what is your feeling about the motivation for this uh war from the Israeli side is it revenge is it something different what what are you picking up

    well it’s not Revenge I mean I think…

    Then goes on to mention as many atrocities that Hamas did. I stopped watching…

        Its the transcript from the video. It was just a stream of Hamas bashing while not blaming Israel for any of it. The guilt is on both sides.
