00:00:05.480 --> 00:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>This is the seventy seven WABC Mini.

2
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:14.359
<v Speaker 2>Cast Alex Tremanne, CEO of JNS dot org. So I

3
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:16.320
<v Speaker 2>know the answer to this, but the audience may not.

4
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 2>How many children, Alex, do you have.

5
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:21.160
<v Speaker 3>Children five?

6
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 2>And all five of your children went to school in Israel?

7
00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 3>Yes? Correct?

8
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:26.760
<v Speaker 2>Correct?

9
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:27.039
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

10
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:30.640
<v Speaker 2>So when we talk about why there is so much

11
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:36.840
<v Speaker 2>disdain for Israel around the world, the lies that Israel's genocidal. No,

12
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:43.280
<v Speaker 2>they're not stupid. Genocide was the Holocaust. Israel is defending themselves, okay,

13
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.960
<v Speaker 2>And they use the numbers from the Palestinian Health Ministry,

14
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.280
<v Speaker 2>which is amass to determine that Israel is killing babies.

15
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:54.840
<v Speaker 2>And it's all lies, all lies. Okay, we know that already.

16
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:58.320
<v Speaker 2>And there's a certain group of people that have this

17
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:02.520
<v Speaker 2>cult like following. That's all it is, cult like. They're

18
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:04.920
<v Speaker 2>not real. Okay, who cares about? How many people watch

19
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:09.519
<v Speaker 2>that dumb podcast? And it's Megan Kelly and it's Candice Owens,

20
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:12.640
<v Speaker 2>and it's led by the worst of the worst talker Carlson,

21
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:17.000
<v Speaker 2>who manages to lie about Israel almost every day. Last

22
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:19.280
<v Speaker 2>week I played a clip of him and Hunter Biden.

23
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:21.040
<v Speaker 2>Want to talk about two guys you can really trust.

24
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>And in that clip, Hunter Carlson mentioned Israel four times

25
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:32.120
<v Speaker 2>in forty six seconds, blamed Israel for everything from pedophilia

26
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 2>to the laptop that Hunter Biden you got into trouble for.

27
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 2>So this is what talker Carlson had to say yesterday

28
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:45.480
<v Speaker 2>about mathematics classes in Israel. Please tell me you're not

29
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 2>sitting because you'll pull off your chair. Cut number four.

30
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 1>How could this happen? Well, because for some Israelis, a

31
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.400
<v Speaker 1>significant number of Israelis, Christian icenography is considered deeply offensive,

32
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.640
<v Speaker 1>in fact, the most offensive, so offensive that in some

33
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>Israeli religious schools the plus sign is not used in math.

34
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 1>The plus sign you know that connotes addition. Why because

35
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>it looks like a cross, and that's considered too offensive

36
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>for the eyes of school children, and so an inverted

37
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:18.840
<v Speaker 1>tea is used. That's a fact. You can look it up.

38
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>That's a fact.

39
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.000
<v Speaker 1>There's only one other instance we've seen of this in

40
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:26.240
<v Speaker 1>the world, and that's in Isis Run Madrasis where the

41
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>cross was also considered offensive. This is not true. In

42
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 1>any normal Muslim country they use plus signs, but not

43
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>in Israeli religious schools. So everybody is allowed to have

44
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>their own religious views and to find other people's symbols repugnant.

45
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>But it might be useful for Christians in the United

46
00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 1>States to know what they are funding and making excuses

47
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.560
<v Speaker 1>for funding. But of course they don't know this because

48
00:02:56.120 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 1>this information somehow hasn't reached them. Like they're watching CBN,

49
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>they're told, don't pay attention. You must be liberal if

50
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.159
<v Speaker 1>you're drawing conclusions.

51
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.439
<v Speaker 2>All right, So again you about five children go to

52
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.039
<v Speaker 2>school in Israel. I've seen, because I've been to issue

53
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 2>many times more than Talker, the beautiful relationship between Jews

54
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:23.560
<v Speaker 2>and Christians all over Israel, alex living in perfect harmony,

55
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 2>perfect unity. Jews have no issue zero with Christians. So

56
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:33.520
<v Speaker 2>when Tucker Crossing says, it's a fact, not his opinion,

57
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.960
<v Speaker 2>not he's heard, not maybe, and they do this all

58
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.039
<v Speaker 2>the time, that side, everything's a fact. It's a fact

59
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:44.280
<v Speaker 2>that they don't use plus signs in Jewish schools in

60
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Israel because it looks like a cross. Did your five

61
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:50.360
<v Speaker 2>kids learn math? Did they see plus signs?

62
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 3>Well, my kids learn math and their calculators have plus

63
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:57.879
<v Speaker 3>signs on them. But if you open up the textbooks

64
00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:01.560
<v Speaker 3>of Jewish kids and logious schools and other schools for

65
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:03.840
<v Speaker 3>that matter, you will see that the plus sign is

66
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:05.919
<v Speaker 3>actually an upside down te and you don't have the

67
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:09.199
<v Speaker 3>bottom of the plush, and that it is like that.

68
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 3>And there is a tradition that dates all the way

69
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.879
<v Speaker 3>back to Europe where they were teaching math like that,

70
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:17.480
<v Speaker 3>and it just became something kind of canonized. I don't

71
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.079
<v Speaker 3>think most Israelis even know why the t is like

72
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:21.560
<v Speaker 3>that or.

73
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:22.959
<v Speaker 2>Not like that?

74
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:23.759
<v Speaker 3>So what is so?

75
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:26.040
<v Speaker 2>See the way Tucker makes it sound, he makes it

76
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:29.199
<v Speaker 2>sound like the majority of the schools you know Israel,

77
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Israel does this. What would you say is a percentage

78
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 2>of schools that Tucko is talking about.

79
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:39.720
<v Speaker 3>I think most of the textbooks, many if not most

80
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 3>of the textbooks in Israel have plus the math books

81
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:49.639
<v Speaker 3>as an inverted capital T and not a traditional plus sign.

82
00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:53.439
<v Speaker 3>That actually does happen, but it's not like being taught

83
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:56.560
<v Speaker 3>in math that The reason why we have a plus

84
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:58.879
<v Speaker 3>ligne like this is because we don't want it to

85
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 3>look like a cross, which, by the way, if you

86
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.360
<v Speaker 3>just look at the way Palestinians learn math for many years,

87
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.120
<v Speaker 3>you know they have math problems, which is if you

88
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.560
<v Speaker 3>have ten Jews and you kill seven, how many Jews

89
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:11.360
<v Speaker 3>are left? And that's called math. So we don't have

90
00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:16.199
<v Speaker 3>like ideological math. But it is correct that the plus

91
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 3>sign in Israeli schools is an inverted By the way,

92
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:24.920
<v Speaker 3>the division sign is not aligned with the dot on

93
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:26.480
<v Speaker 3>the top of the dot on the bottom. You just

94
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 3>have a colon and that's a division sign. So what

95
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:29.720
<v Speaker 3>is that exactly?

96
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 2>Are they slamming Christianity in that case.

97
00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:38.079
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's not being taught. It's not being taught

98
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:41.560
<v Speaker 3>to slam Christianity. But there are Jews that say, you know,

99
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:46.120
<v Speaker 3>don't don't utilized symbols of other religions, and and you know,

100
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:48.759
<v Speaker 3>Christians and Jews can get along great in Israel, and

101
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:53.399
<v Speaker 3>Israel prides itself on freedom of consciousness, freedom of worship.

102
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:55.959
<v Speaker 3>You know, the churches are beautiful and jersally they have

103
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.279
<v Speaker 3>the most beautiful and the largest properties over the city.

104
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.639
<v Speaker 3>If I took you on a helicopter tour of this

105
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:03.720
<v Speaker 3>city and I didn't tell you what city it was,

106
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:07.000
<v Speaker 3>and I asked you to define which is the dominant

107
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.839
<v Speaker 3>religion in the city. From the helicopter tour, you'd say

108
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:13.319
<v Speaker 3>that Jerusalem is a Christian city. Because Israel protects all

109
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 3>these places. But that doesn't mean that Jews like to

110
00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:20.639
<v Speaker 3>show Christian symbols and their homes or in their school

111
00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 3>books or so. But that's that's okay. Yeah, Christians can

112
00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:28.399
<v Speaker 3>can worship Christian symbols and however they want, and Jews

113
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:31.720
<v Speaker 3>can worship however they want and can put whatever symbols

114
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:33.240
<v Speaker 3>they want. Fair enough.

115
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:36.160
<v Speaker 2>Great job, Alex. That's why you're here because you can

116
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:38.120
<v Speaker 2>tell us exactly what's going on, and nobody does it

117
00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:41.160
<v Speaker 2>better than you. Alex train an amazing job. This morning

118
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:43.560
<v Speaker 2>is always. I look forward to talking to you again

119
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 2>very soon and seeing you in a couple of months. Buddy,

<v Speaker 3>Well said. I'm gonna see you in ten days in

122
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:50.399
<v Speaker 3>Las Vegas.

123
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's right, you're gonna be there for that too. Yeah,

124
