WHEN WE ORIGINALLY DID THE
AHMED MOHAMED STORY HERE ON THE
YOUNG TURKS, ANA MENTIONED THAT
SOME OF THE FEAR MONGERING
AGAINST MUSLIMS IN AMERICA ALSO
WAS DONE BY ATHEISTS.
NOT
PREDOMINATELY, NOT BY A
LONGSHOT.
WE ARE ATHEISTS, WE
DON'T DO THAT.
MOST ATHEISTS
DON'T. BUT DO SOME ATHEISTS
FEAR MONGER AGAINST MUSLIMS?
IN
OUR EXPERIENCE YES, WE HAVE
SHOWN YOU SPECIFIC INSTANCES.
HOLY HELL RAINED DOWN FROM THESE
GROUPS SAYING OH MY GOD, YOU GUYS
ARE SO BIASED AGAINST ATHEISTS,
THEY WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING
LIKE THAT, WE STAND WITH
MOHAMED.
NOW IN AN IRONIC
TWIST, THOSE SAME ATHEISTS,
AGAIN, NOT A MAJORITY, BUT A
SMALL GROUP THAT ARE BASICALLY
THE ANTI-MUSLIM ATHEISTS, HAVE
COME OUT AND SAID, WE KNEW IT.
THE KID WAS GUILTY.
WAIT A
MINUTE, I THOUGHT YOU SAID
ATHEISTS WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
IT
TURNS OUT THEY WOULD, AND THEY
DID.
ONE OF THE RINGLEADERS IS
RICHARD DAWKINS, A GUY I USED TO
PREVIOUSLY RESPECT.
HE CAME OUT
AND SAID ABOUT THE 14-YEAR-OLD
STUDENT IN TEXAS WHO MADE A
CLOCK THAT AUTHORITIES THOUGHT
WAS A BOMB, WE WERE ALL FOOLED.
WERE WE, RICHARD?
WHAT DID IT
TURN OUT TO BE?
DO YOU AGREE
WITH SARAH PALIN, WHO STILL
THINKS IT WAS A BOMB EVEN THOUGH
THE AUTHORITIES AND EVERYONE
ELSE SAID IT WAS A CLOCK?
WE
WERE FOOLED, TAKEN IN BY THIS
14-YEAR-OLD DANGEROUS, DANGEROUS
MUSLIM.
TELL ME MORE, RICHARD.
IF THIS IS TRUE, REFERRING TO A
VIDEO ON YOUTUBE, WHAT WAS HIS
MOTIVE?
WHETHER OR NOT HE WANTED
THE POLICE TO ARREST HIM, THEY
SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE SO.
THEY
SHOULDN'T HAVE PLAYED ALONG WITH
HIS DEVIOUS MUSLIM TRICK?
AT THE
AGE OF 14 HE THOUGHT, I WILL
BRING IN A THING THAT I THINK
LOOKS LIKE A CLOCK THAT I WOULD
NEVER THINK OTHERWISE, THAT
EVERYBODY ELSE WOULD THINK WOULD
LOOK LIKE A BOMB, BUT NO, NO,
NO, SINCE I AM A DEVIOUS MUSLIM
I WILL MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A BOMB.
THEN I WILL HAVE PEOPLE ARREST
ME AT THE AGE OF 14.
THEN ASSUME
THAT THE NATIONAL MEDIA PICKS IT
UP, THEN ASSUME I WILL BECOME A
NEWS CELEBRITY, THEN I ASSUME I
WILL BE INVITED TO THE WHITE
HOUSE AND SCHOLARSHIPS TO M.I.T.
WAS THAT PART OF HIS ELABORATE
HOAX?
BY THE WAY, IF IT WAS,
THAT IS THE SMARTEST 14-YEAR-OLD
IN THE COUNTRY AND HE SHOULD GET
INTO M.I.T.
WE ARE NOT DONE YET.
DAWKINS SAYS, HE DIDN'T ONLY
CLAIM TO HAVE BUILT IT, HE
CLAIMED ON YOUTUBE THAT IT WAS
HIS INVENTION.
NOW WE ARE
NITPICKING THE KID'S
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT.
HE IS 14.
I
DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS A GOOD
ASSIGNMENT OR NOT.
DAILY BEAST
HAS ANOTHER STORY OF ALL THESE
OTHER CRITICS, ATHEISTS AND
OTHERWISE, SAYING -- AND YES,
SOME OF THEM ARE SPECIFICALLY
ATHEISTS BECAUSE THEY ARE IN THE
CONTEXT OF THIS RICHARD DAWKINS
CONVERSATION -- SOME OF THOSE
PARTS WERE MANUFACTURED, HE
DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT ON HIS OWN.
WHAT WAS HE SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT
FROM, LEAVES AND FIGS AND NUTS
THAT HE FOUND IN THE YARD?
YES,
SOME PARTS WERE MANUFACTURED.
I
DON'T KNOW HOW YOU MAKE A CLOCK,
BUT IT WAS A CLOCK.
DAWKINS, NOT
QUITE SURE ABOUT THIS YOUNG
MUSLIM KID.
HE SAYS I DON'T
KNOW.
POSSIBLY WANTED TO BE
ARRESTED?
POLICE PLAYED INTO HIS
HANDS?
ANYWAY, NOW INVITED TO
THE WHITE HOUSE, CROWD FUNDED, ETC.
RICHARD, MAYBE YOU SHOULD GIVE
UP YOUR SEAT IN WHATEVER SCHOOL
YOU ARE TEACHING AT TO THIS KID
IF HE IS THAT BRILLIANT.
HOW CAN
I GET THE TEXAS POLICE TO PLAY
ALONG WITH MY DEVIOUS GAME?
HOW
CAN YOU BE A 74-YEAR-OLD
RESPECTED OR FORMERLY RESPECTED
EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGIST AND GO
AFTER THIS 14-YEAR-OLD KID AND
HIS HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT AND
THINK THAT HE CAME UP WITH THIS
GIANT PLOT TO DECEIVE US ALL?
WE
PLAYED RIGHT INTO HIS HANDS.
GENIUS, KID.
HE CONTINUES, IF
THE REASSEMBLED COMPONENTS DID
SOMETHING MORE THAN THE ORIGINAL
CLOCK, THAT'S CREATIVE.
IF NOT,
IT LOOKS LIKE A HOAX.
THANK YOU,
RICHARD ALEX JONES DAWKINS.
I
WILL GET TO HIM IN A SECOND.
OKAY, FRAUDULENT CLAIMING OF
INVENTION IS NOT HEINOUS.
AND HE
CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN
ARRESTED BY THE POLICE.
SOME
BACKPEDALING.
AFTER HE VENTED
AND VENTED AND PEOPLE ARE LIKE
COOL IT, IT IS A KID, WHAT ARE
YOU DOING?
THAT SOUNDS CRAZY.
HE'S LIKE, OKAY, FINE.
HE SHOULD
NOT HAVE BEEN ARRESTED.
BUT IT
WAS NOT A CLOCK.
OKAY, YOU GOT
HIM.
GIVE HIM A B+ ON THAT
ASSIGNMENT.
SORRY IF I GOT A BIT
OVER-THE-TOP IN MY PASSION FOR
TRUTH.
NOT JUST OVER A BOY'S
ALLEGED INVENTION BUT ALSO MEDIA
LIES ABOUT J CORBYN.
THIS HAS
NOTHING TO DO WITH CORBYN, AND
THAT IS NOT AN APOLOGY.
YOU ARE
SAYING YOU WENT AFTER THIS KID
BECAUSE OF YOUR PASSION FOR
TRUTH.
IN OTHER WORDS, YOU ARE
RIGHT, HE IS WRONG, HE IS LYING
AND IT IS A HOAX, IT WAS ALL IN
AN EFFORT TO TRICK ALL OF US
INTO HAVING SOME SYMPATHY FOR A
MUSLIM.
WE KNEW IT.
BREITBART IS
OUT THERE, NOW THEY ARE
INVESTIGATING HIS DAD.
IT TURNS
OUT HIS DAD DIDN'T LIKE PEOPLE
WHO ATTACKED MUSLIMS.
YEAH, IF
YOU ARE A MUSLIM YOU PROBABLY
WOULD NOT LIKE THAT.
IF YOU ARE
JEWISH YOU DON'T LIKE PEOPLE WHO
ATTACKED JEWS.
WE GOT HIM, HIS
DAD.
HE SHOULD'VE BOWED HIS HEAD
AND KISSED HER FEET FOR ATTACKING
MUSLIMS, BUT HE DIDN'T. AGAIN
THE DAILY BEAST ARTICLE HAS A
REFERENCE TO, AND THEN HE WENT
AND TALKED TO HIS LAWYER.
WHY
DID HE HAVE A LAWYER?
MAYBE
BECAUSE HE WAS ARRESTED?
MAYBE
THAT IS WHY HE HAD A LAWYER?
THESE PEOPLE ARE UNBELIEVABLE.
ALEX JONES INFO WARS HAS THIS
HEADLINE.
FAKE HATE?
IS CLOCK
KID FUROR ALL A BIG SETUP?
WHAT
IS THIS, FALSE CLOCK OPERATION?
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS LAST GUY
GOT IN ON IT NEXT.
WATCH.
YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT.
ET TU, OBAMA?
PERHAPS NOT.
NOW
WE'RE GOING TO BILL MAHER.
HE HAS
HIS SHOW ON HBO, REAL-TIME WITH
BILL MAHER, AND HE HAS ALL THESE
GUESTS ON.
HE WILL GO AFTER THE
KID.
VERY BRAVE.
ALL THESE GUYS
WHO GO AFTER MUSLIM AMERICANS,
THEY ALWAYS THINK THEY ARE SO
BOLD TO PICK ON THE MOST
PERSECUTED MINORITY AMERICA,
MAYBE EVEN MORE THAN MEXICANS.
I
WILL PILE ON.
I AM SO BOLD, SO
COURAGEOUS.
WHERE IS THAT
14-YEAR-OLD, I WILL PUNCH HIM IN
THE FACE.
I AM SO BOLD, I GO AFTER
THE POWERFUL.
WE DID THE BEST WE
CAN IN EDITING TO GIVE YOU FULL
CONTEXT FOR BILL MAHER, WE TOOK
OUT THE EXTRANEOUS STUFF WITH
MARK CUBAN, ETC.
HERE IS BILL
MAHER, ALL OF HIS POINTS, GOOD
BAD OR OTHERWISE, ABOUT
AHMED MOHAMED FROM HIS PROGRAM.
HE IS A SCIENCE KID AND THAT'S
GREAT.
CAN WE SHOW THE CLOCK?
THE PEOPLE AT THE SCHOOL THOUGHT
IT MIGHT BE A BOMB, PERHAPS
BECAUSE IT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE A
FUCKING BOMB.
LOOK, THIS KID
DESERVES AN APOLOGY, NO DOUBT
ABOUT IT.
THEY WERE WRONG.
BUT
COULD WE HAVE A LITTLE
PERSPECTIVE ABOUT THIS?
DID THE
TEACHER REALLY DO THE WRONG
THING?
WOULD THAT HAVE HAPPENED
IF HE --
THE CONTROVERSY IS BECAUSE OF
THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN.
IT'S NOT THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN.
IT'S NOT THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN.
AND HIS RELIGION.
SOMEBODY LOOK ME IN TH EYE HERE
AND TELL ME OVER THE LAST 30
YEARS, IF SO MANY MUSLIM -- YOUNG
MUSLIM MEN, AND HE IS YOUNG, 14,
BUT THAT IS NOT -- NOT NEVER
HAPPENED BEFORE, HASN'T BLOWN A
LOT OF SHIT UP AROUND THE WORLD?
AND THIS KID DESERVES AN APOLOGY
BECAUSE HE WASN'T ONE OF THEM.
BUT LET ME READ WHAT SOMEBODY
SAID ON THE DAILY BEAST.
DEAN
OBADIAH SAID, WHY WOULD A
HOMEMADE CLOCK GET HIM ARRESTED,
YOU MAY ASK?
EXACTLY.
I JUST ANSWERED THAT QUESTION.
BECAUSE FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS IT
HAS BEEN ONE CULTURE THAT HAS
BEEN BLOWING SHIT UP OVER AND
OVER AGAIN.
HE WAS FROM IRVING,
TEXAS.
HE SAID, IRVING IS ONLY 25
MINUTES FROM GARLAND, WHERE THE
DRAW THE PROPHET MOHAMED
CONTEST, REMEMBER THAT A FEW
MONTHS AGO, WAS ATTACKED, AS IT
WAS, BY ISIS SYMPATHIZING GUNMEN
IN MAY.
THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR.
IF
YOU ARE A MUSLIM, ANYTHING YOU
MIGHT DO -- ANYTHING YOU DO
MIGHT BE A PLOT TO DESTROY
AMERICA.
NO, THE MESSAGE IS, YOU
CAN SEE WHY THEY WOULD ERR ON
THE SIDE OF CAUTION, BECAUSE
ONLY 25 MILES AWAY SOMEBODY DID
TRY TO KILL PEOPLE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I AGREE WITH
YOU.
THE TEACHER'S SUPPOSED TO SEE
SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE A BOMB
AND GO, WAIT, THIS JUST MIGHT
BE MY WHITE PRIVILEGE TALKING?
HE WAS ARRESTED AND THEY TOOK
HIM IN CUFFS AND THEY PUT HIM IN
A CAGE AND BURNED HIM.
OH NO, THAT
IS ISIS WHO DOES THAT.
WE PUT A
KID AFTER SCHOOL FOR A COUPLE OF
HOURS.
THIS IS NOT THE END OF
THE WORLD.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
THE
END OF THE WORLD DOES HAPPEN ALL
OVER THE WORLD, FOR MILLIONS OF
MUSLIMS.
WHO ARE THE VICTIMS OF
OTHER MUSLIMS, OF THEIR
RELIGION.
WHERE ARE THE LIBERALS ON THIS?
RIGHT HERE.
WE ADDRESS THOSE
THINGS.
I WILL TAKE THAT LAST
ONE FIRST.
ANYTIME RADICAL
MUSLIMS DO THOSE THINGS, WE
POINT IT OUT, WE ATTACK THEM
100%.
THIS SHOW WAS POINTING OUT
WHAT ISIS WAS DOING WELL BEFORE
THE REST OF THE MEDIA.
SAME
THING WITH BOKO HARAM.
BOKO
HARAM WHEN TRANSLATED MEANS
AGAINST EDUCATION.
EDUCATION IS
THE ANSWER, AND THESE GROUPS ARE
TRYING TO GET KIDS TO NOT GET
EDUCATED, INSTEAD TO BELIEVE IN
THEIR FUNDAMENTALIST RADICAL
ISLAM.
WE ARE ALL AGAINST THAT,
THAT IS A NO-BRAINER.
IN THE
ATHEIST COMMUNITY WE ALL AGREE
THAT ISLAM IS WRONG, AS
CHRISTIANITY AND JUDAISM ARE
WRONG.
ALL THINGS WE EASILY
AGREE UPON.
THE QUESTION IS, DO
YOU THEN CLASSIFY MUSLIMS IN A
DIFFERENT CATEGORY?
TO GIVE BILL
MAHER CREDIT HERE, FIRST HE SAYS
THIS KID SHOULD GET AN APOLOGY
AND SEEMED ALMOST
SURPRISED.
LIKE, HE WAS ONE OF
THE YOUNG MUSLIMS WHO WEREN'T
GUILTY.
LIKE, THERE ARE SOME
GOOD ONES.
SOUNDS A LITTLE LIKE
DONALD TRUMP THERE.
I GUESS
THERE ARE SOME GOOD ONES.
BUT
THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN BLOWING
SHIT UP FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS,
WHO ARE THEY?
THAT IS A FUNNY
QUESTION BILL, EXCEPT THAT YOU
DID NOT REALLY ANSWER IT, DID
YOU?
BECAUSE WHAT YOU DO IS YOU
NEVER COUNT STATE VIOLENCE.
SO
WHEN WE GO INVADE IRAQ AND
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF
CIVILIANS DIE, THAT DOESN'T
COUNT.
WE ARE NOT VIOLENT,
BECAUSE WE HAVE JETS AND THEY
DROP BOMBS ON PEOPLE.
AND WHEN
CIVILIANS DIE, GRANDMOTHERS OR
KIDS, SOMETIMES ADULT MALES OR
FEMALES, WHEN THEY DIE AND GET
INCINERATED BY OUR BOMBS, THAT
DOES NOT COUNT.
STATE VIOLENCE
NEVER COUNTS.
IT DOES NOT COUNT
WHEN THE U.S. DOES IT, NOT WHEN
ISRAEL DOES IT.
NOW THE SAUDI
ARABIANS ARE OUR ALLY, IT
DOESN'T EVEN COUNT WHEN THEY DO
IT IN YEMEN.
IN THAT CASE I AM
POSITIVE BILL MAHER AND THE
OTHERS WOULD BE ON OUR SIDE
BECAUSE THE SAUDIS ARE ALSO
MUSLIMS, THE BAD GUYS.
WE
DISCOUNT STATE VIOLENCE.
WHAT
REMAINS IS GUERRILLA VIOLENCE OF
THE POWERLESS.
IT DOES NOT
EXCUSE THAT, IT ALSO DOES NOT
DIFFUSE OUR ACTIONS.
FOR HIM TO
SAY THAT THE ONLY PEOPLE DOING
VIOLENCE IN THE LAST 30 YEARS
ARE YOUNG MUSLIMS, YEAH, IF YOU
DISCOUNT ALL THE OTHER VIOLENCE
IN THE WORLD, THAT WOULD BE
CORRECT.
BUT THAT IS THE WHOLE
PROBLEM WITH YOUR PREMISE.
AS
LOVELY PEOPLE IN A STUDIO IN THE
WEST HERE, AS WE DROP BOMBS ON
YOUR HEAD COMFORTABLY, WE JUDGE
YOUR MORALS.
YOU FILTHY MUSLIMS,
LOOK AT ALL THE VIOLENCE YOU DO.
LOOK AT ALL THE TROUBLE YOU
CAUSE THE WORLD.
OF COURSE WE
WOULD SUSPECT A 14-YEAR-OLD
MUSLIM AMERICAN KID IN THE
MIDDLE OF TEXAS, OF COURSE WE
WOULD SUSPECT HIM.
HE IS MUSLIM.
WHAT?
HOW COULD YOU SAY IT IS
BECAUSE OF HIS RELIGION?
NOT
JORGE RAMOS, THE ONLY GUY WHO IS
DECENT ON THAT PANEL, THE OTHER
FOUR LAUGHING ABOUT WHITE
PRIVILEGE.
YOU ARE ALL LIVING,
BATHING IN WHITE PRIVILEGE, AND
IT IS OKAY.
BILL MAHER IS LIBERAL
IN OTHER RESPECTS, I UNDERSTAND
THAT.
AND UNDERSTAND HE
UNDERSTANDS THAT CONCEPT, BUT
THEY ALL LAUGH AT THE KID LIKE
WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO?
ENDANGER OURSELVES WITH A
DANGEROUS MUSLIM KID?
THEN THEY
WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT WHITE
PRIVILEGE.
YOU WERE NOT SUPPOSED
TO ARREST THE KID, NOT SUPPOSED
TO HANDCUFF HIM.
LIKE I SAID 100
TIMES, IN THE BEGINNING IF YOU
THINK IT LOOKS LIKE A BOMB, THAT
IS NOT CRAZY.
I SAID THAT ON DAY
ONE.
PUT IT ASIDE, MAYBE YOU
EVACUATE THE SCHOOL, WHICH THEY
DIDN'T DO, SO THEY MUST NOT
HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS A BOMB.
BUT
MAYBE THAT IS WHAT YOU DO TO BE
SAFE, TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF
CAUTION, AND YOU PULL THE KID IN
THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE TO SORT IT
OUT.
I HAVE BEEN PULLED IN THE
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE A MILLION
TIMES, MOSTLY BECAUSE I HAVE A
LOUD MOUTH, YOU CAN TELL, BUT
THEY DID NOT ARREST ME OR
HANDCUFF ME.
THIS IS BILL MAHER'S
LONG WAY OF SAYING, HE HAD IT
COMING.
OF COURSE WE SUSPECTED
HIM.
REALLY, BILL?
WHY DID WE
SUSPECT HIM?
BECAUSE YOUNG
MUSLIMS HAVE BEEN BLOWING SHIT
UP ALL ACROSS THE WORLD FOR THE
LAST 30 YEARS.
THAT IS HIS
WORDS.
YOU SAW IT FOR YOURSELF,
GO BACK AND QUOTE HIM EXACTLY
IF YOU LIKE.
STEW IN IT IF YOU
LIKE.
BUT HERE ARE SOME
PROMINENT ATHEISTS WHO ARE
DEFINITELY NOT STANDING WITH
AHMED MOHAMED, AND WHO ARE NOW
RUSHING TO GET ON WHETHER IT WAS
A CLOCK, WHETHER HE DID A GOOD
ENOUGH HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT, OR
WHETHER IT WAS PART OF A DEVIOUS
PLOT, ALL CONCOCTED TO GET
SYMPATHY FOR THE MUSLIMS, WHO WE
ALL KNOW SHOULD NEVER HAVE ANY
SYMPATHY.
AND THEN THEY TURN
AROUND AND HAVE THE AUDACITY TO
SAY, ME?
I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING
ABOUT MUSLIMS.
I JUST DISAGREE
WITH THE IDEOLOGY OF ISLAM.
NO,
YOU SCHMUCK, WE ALL DISAGREE
WITH THE IDEOLOGY OF ISLAM.
THE
QUESTION IS, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
MUSLIMS AS HUMAN BEINGS?
IN THE
PAST WHEN A SINGLE RELIGION WAS
PICKED ON AND DEMONIZED, THAT DID
NOT WORK OUT THAT WELL.
DO YOU
REMEMBER THAT?
WHEN THEY SAID,
ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT GERMANY
DOES NOT HAVE A BANKING PROBLEM?
ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT A
SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF
BANKERS ARE NOT JEWISH?
IT IS
THE JEWS, STUPID.
HOW DID THAT
TURN OUT?
IT WAS VICIOUSLY UGLY,
WASN'T IT?
BUT WHEN NOW YOU SAY
LOOK, IT IS THE VIOLENCE, AND
WHO DOES THE VIOLENCE?
THE
MUSLIMS DO THE VIOLENCE.
IT IS
THE MUSLIMS, STUPID.
YOU ARE
DOING THE SAME EXACT THING.
AND
THE FACT YOU CAN'T SEE THAT, OR
DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT, DOES NOT
EXCUSE ANY OF YOUR ACTIONS.
YES,
BILL.
IT IS BIGOTED.
THAT IS
EXACTLY WHAT IT IS.
YOU WANT TO
ATTACK ISLAM?
I AM RIGHT THERE
WITH YOU.
IT IS WRONG, IT IS NOT
CORRECT, IT IS NOT THE TRUTH.
YOU WANT TO ATTACK YOUNG MUSLIM
KIDS BECAUSE YOU ASSUME THEY ARE
GUILTY BY THE VERY FACT OF THE
RELIGION?
THEN I AM NOT WITH
YOU, I WILL FIGHT YOU, AND YOU
ARE GOD DAMNED WRONG.
YOUNG
TURKS.
