Asalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, how are you guys

00:00:08 --> 00:00:08

doing?

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

Before we begin the video, make sure you

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

click the link below for the people in

00:00:13 --> 00:00:13

Lebanon.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

It's one thing raising awareness, it's another thing

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

giving charity.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

We've got people on the ground for one

00:00:19 --> 00:00:20

ummah, they're doing a fantastic job.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

A hundred pound will feed an entire family

00:00:22 --> 00:00:23

for a month.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

Asalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

Let's talk about Iran.

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

Let's talk about Iran.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:28

Fantastic, okay.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:28

Do you support Iran?

00:00:29 --> 00:00:30

Okay, well let me answer your question.

00:00:32 --> 00:00:35

Iran was attacked on April the 1st, right?

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

It was attacked, the embassy of Iran was

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

attacked in Syria by Israel.

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

After that, on the first occasion, they then

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

sent missiles and drones, correct?

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

Now my question to you is, does Iran

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

have a right to defend itself?

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

And if so, what is a proportionate response?

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

Because you see, I've been getting, I've been

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

having a moral quandary about the issue.

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

Er, Piers Morgan, what's a proportionate response for

00:00:58 --> 00:00:59

Iran?

00:00:59 --> 00:01:00

I'll tell you what I think about Iran.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:03

I think Iran is an unbelievably nefarious place,

00:01:03 --> 00:01:07

which has been fuelling Hamas, the Houthis, Hezbollah,

00:01:08 --> 00:01:13

for many years, with a joint ideology that

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

they want to eradicate Israel in any way

00:01:16 --> 00:01:16

they can.

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

So I think Iran is one of the

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

most despicable regimes in the world.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

I also think that right now, the Iranian

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

regime is in serious danger of- You

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

look completely discombobulated.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

What do you mean?

00:01:28 --> 00:01:29

You look dishevelled.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

I'm telling you what I think of Iran.

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

I'm asking you, do they have a right

00:01:32 --> 00:01:32

to defend themselves?

00:01:33 --> 00:01:34

Do you think they have a right to

00:01:34 --> 00:01:34

defend themselves?

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

Both of you can answer the question.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:36

Do they have a right to defend?

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

They were attacked.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

The sovereign nation was attacked.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

My question is, does it have a right

00:01:39 --> 00:01:39

to defend itself?

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

Iran has been fuelling attacks on Israel now

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

for, what, 40 years?

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

I've been having a moral quandary about this.

00:01:44 --> 00:01:44

What?

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

I've been having a moral quandary about Iran.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:47

Have you?

00:01:47 --> 00:01:47

Yeah, moral quandary.

00:01:47 --> 00:01:47

Yes.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:48

Moral quandary.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:49

I don't know.

00:01:49 --> 00:01:50

Do they have a right to defend themselves?

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

And if so, what is a proportionate response?

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

You're supporting Iran, to be clear.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

I'm asking you- No, I'm not supporting.

00:01:55 --> 00:01:55

I'm not supporting.

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

I'm antithetical to many of these organisations for

00:01:58 --> 00:01:58

my own purposes.

00:01:59 --> 00:02:00

But my question is- Do you support

00:02:00 --> 00:02:01

the Iranian regime?

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

Not unconditionally, but I support their right-

00:02:03 --> 00:02:04

What conditions do you agree with them about?

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

Their right to defend themselves.

00:02:06 --> 00:02:07

Do you believe they have a right to

00:02:07 --> 00:02:07

defend themselves?

00:02:07 --> 00:02:09

No, because they're a terrorist.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

Oh, so they don't have a right to

00:02:10 --> 00:02:10

defend themselves?

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

Iran does not have a right to defend

00:02:12 --> 00:02:12

itself.

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

They do, but they're not the ones-

00:02:14 --> 00:02:15

So what is a proportionate response?

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

They're not the ones- What's a proportionate

00:02:17 --> 00:02:17

response?

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

OK.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

No, I asked- Can I answer you?

00:02:19 --> 00:02:20

You asked this question to the people.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

You're just going to keep talking.

00:02:21 --> 00:02:22

Can I answer you?

00:02:22 --> 00:02:23

What's a proportionate response?

00:02:23 --> 00:02:25

A proportionate response to Iran is to stop

00:02:25 --> 00:02:29

them trying to destroy Israel through their proxies.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:30

Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Hamas.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

It's what they've been trying to do for

00:02:32 --> 00:02:32

many years.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

What is a proportionate response of Iran after

00:02:34 --> 00:02:38

the embassy was smashed and destroyed in Syria

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

and 16 people were killed?

00:02:39 --> 00:02:39

What's a proportionate response?

00:02:40 --> 00:02:41

Well, what about the proportionate response to everything

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

Iran's done?

00:02:42 --> 00:02:43

Which is against the Vienna Conventions.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

What about the response to everything Iran has

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

been doing?

00:02:46 --> 00:02:46

What did Iran do to Israel?

00:02:47 --> 00:02:47

Who did they kill?

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

Who did they- Because they never killed

00:02:48 --> 00:02:49

anybody in Iran.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

Who did they- How deluded are you

00:02:50 --> 00:02:50

about it?

00:02:50 --> 00:02:50

No, no.

00:02:50 --> 00:02:51

Excuse me.

00:02:51 --> 00:02:51

Hold on.

00:02:53 --> 00:02:56

Which Israeli civilian have Iran successfully targeted?

00:02:56 --> 00:02:56

Give me one name, please.

00:02:56 --> 00:02:58

You don't think Iran's doing a response of

00:02:58 --> 00:02:58

any Israeli civilian dying?

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

I'm not.

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

I'm asking you to edify me.

00:03:00 --> 00:03:02

What about the way they funded Hamas?

00:03:02 --> 00:03:02

I can't give you- You can both

00:03:02 --> 00:03:03

edify me.

00:03:03 --> 00:03:04

I can't give you some names in Israel.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:05

Iran in particular.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:06

I'm not talking about Hamas.

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

We've spoken about Hamas at length.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:08

We're talking about Iran.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:09

I can't give you some specific names.

00:03:09 --> 00:03:10

We're talking about Iran's old news.

00:03:10 --> 00:03:11

You're talking about Hamas.

00:03:11 --> 00:03:12

Let's let Alan respond.
