Christiane Amanpour - “The Amanpour Hour” and Covering War in Gaza | The Daily Show
“History is not always a great teacher. Leadership matters, and we are in a crisis of leadership in the world.” CNN Chief International Anchor Christiane Amanpour sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss the unprecedented difficulty in covering the war in Gaza, the squashed Middle East peace process of the 1990s, and Muslim countries abandoning Palestinians. Christiane also discusses showcasing diverse viewpoints and opinions on her show, “The Amanpour Hour,” including one Israeli woman who told her, “We must make friends with our enemies, otherwise we will keep dying.” #DailyShow #JonStewart #ChristianeAmanpour

Jon please invite bassem youssef on your show and interview him about gaza. We would love to see that.
Yes!!
He’s on tour. Right now he’s in Europe but he probably will do this and JRE when his tour comes to America
Agree
Hear, hear!
Yes with Gad Saad
I actually really love when we can skip past all the small talk and the jokes, and dive straight into a really important discussion of the critical issues. Thank you Christiane and Jon.
On the daily show? On comedy central?? Yeah! Let's get past all the jokes already...?
There's not much that needs discussing at this point. Just say Biden is abetting genocide in Gaza. Neither of them could utter that simple sentence for all the hot air that's been expelled over 15 minutes. What has Amanpour said in this 15 minutes that we don't already know? Stop sugar coating this please.
@@crackills1 there are more jokes on all the other news channels than on TDS with Jon Stewart...
@@crackills1. Comedians have the most compelling commentary on serious issues.
👏👏👏💯 Great discussion, Christiane has some of the best insights into these complicated issues imo, her show and KZhead channel are great imo. Thank you for having her on Jon and for your insights as well! Spot on man 🙏
Jon Stewart pushing the boundaries. Bravo for always trying.
Just barely
You can say he always tries, but here he does much more than most on TV. Notice he doesn't address the six hours between when the IDF allowed Hamas to break through the most heavily guarded 23 mile wall in the world and when the IDF got in one of the 27 Apache helicopters and engaged Hamas (takes 10 minutes). Until Israel explains the standdown (they haven't) we must see 10/7 as an inside job to level Gaza and give the rebuilt real estate (on US taxpayer's dime) to Israelis. Notice Jon Stewart says NOTHING of this obvious agenda.
Thank you for telling the truth about the atrocities happening in Gaza 😮😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
There are no atrocities in Gaza. There is a war israel was forced into.

Israel is NOT a religion. Criticism is NOT antisemitism. Tikkun olam.🕊️🕊️🕊️
Exactly! And criticism of Palestinians and their disregard for their own civilian lives is not talked about enough.

@@Erik-tu3rw wait, didn’t we ALL collectively argue about civilians disregarding their own lives like four years ago for some reason?
@@Erik-tu3rwWhat about Israeli disregard for civilian life? 2023 was the deadliest year ever for Palestinian civilians in the West Bank before Oct 7th.
Why does everyone think this all started Oct.7? How many times have Palestinians lived terrorism against them
They keep ignoring this since 1940s
You mean: how many times has Israel responded to aggression and terrorism by Palestinian Arabs
Then why discuss this issue now if it is happening since 2000 years. Let's talk about it after 2000 years.
That's the true and tried strategy of repeating lies relentlessly so the public eventually believes it!
Plus, Israel specifically does NOT have the right to defend itself under international law as an occupying force.
Thank you Jon for your integrity ❤
The voting rules of the Security Council needs to be changed by a vote of the General Assembly. No country should have a unilateral ability to veto a resolution in the Security Council. Not the US. Not Russia, Not China. No one.
A UN vote changes absolutely nothing. So the rules to get a vote are irrelevant.
That would be the beginning of the end. Start of ww3. Russia would veto veto veto as well as China and then they change the rules without them and then it's war
They don't care about your opinion...they control what you think...that is the job of he National Seciruty Council. They are the group that TELLS the few families in control of the media what to show you on the media.
We've made it clear that we don't deserve veto power
The original reason that power was given was so that the superpowers had a reason to come to the table. But times have changed, and so should the rules.

Why do we need to go a COMEDY SATIRE SHOW. To get fifteen minutes of sane, rational discussion on important issues? Thanks for coming back Jon, we really need you.
Agreed
Because we live in clown world lol
Because Comedians and satirists are much better at observation of the daily world and its facts and absurdities. Since birth. They can state the obvious, which is something our traditional media and propaganda machines will never do . Think about Walter Cronkite, he stated the news, with zero opinion or voice inflection to convey judgement. The only day he stepped off course for one moment and actually removed his eye glasses, was the moment he had to announce that JFK was dead . And later on, Vietnam was the first war to air on TV.
Probably for the same reason Christiane Amanpour had to come to satire show to finally start making sense. Maybe Stewart produces some kind of pheromones that temporarily bring some sense into people in close proximity, cause I'm pretty sure she will turn back into her non-sensical self whenever we see her next time on CNN
Maybe because you're ignorant about many fine journalists who do this kind of thing everyday? You won't find them on cable TV.
As an avid observer, and regular watcher of Both Amanpour, and Stewart, I have never seen Amanpour more animated, and Stewart, more observant.....
Indeed. They were well matched and congruent on this "twitchy" topic.
Ole' switcheroo..!
agreed. but, I would still like to see him not interrupt as frequently..
@@lintelle2382 ditto.
Please stop calling him Stewart, he is NOT of Anglo descent. His name is Leibowitz and he comes from a banking family. His job is to butter you up so it's easier for his brother to con you into some usery scam.
Why is there no mention of the ongoing seizing of Palestinian land forcing an uprising…
And the massacres and GENOCIDE of Palestinians..The war crimes of IDF & Netanyahu and the gangster. Seems all the atrocities were kinda sanitized so as not to not anger the Zionists..Need to state the truth of the sufferings of Palestinians and let those duped Americans be 'unblinded' from now on..🇵🇸🇵🇸🕊️🕊️
There never is. The world started October 7.
Jordan has given the majority of Palestinians in Jordan citizenship. Im surprised Christaine denied that. Almost half of the Jordanian population is of Palestinian decent. The rest of the refugees have to continue to be so, so that their right in their country is not forgotten.
The public needs this information. More of this please.
Humanity has already failed us 6 months on, well and truly failed. 40,000 murders in such a short space of time is just beyond tragic and unacceptable.
I would not be surprised if the real number was significantly higher than 40,000. The 33,000 number is over a month old, and I don't think that included people still missing under rubble, all this on top of the famine. I think the final death toll is going to be shocking to the world, and I try to avoid thinking about it for my own sanity.

@@valerierodger are you serious?
@jazmin1939 De acuerdo
Thank you John and Christian
There needs to be a longer format of these conversations! He has such insightful conversations with the most knowledgeable guests!!
yeah, at least 20 minutes
Just watch some real news, Al-Jazeera sends 24/7 and almost exclusively about Gaza
There was. He did "the problem with jon stewart. But not many people watched, it seems...
... It's called a podcast?? Stewart and TDS have literally several....
Depends on the guests too. There have been 20-30 minute interviews/conversations with guests on the Daily Show that get uploaded online.
I'm not gunna lie, I really wish this had been at least a 2hr discussion. These two would have such amazing conversation about these issues given more time. I would have watched that too.
Respect to both of you
On the journalists or lack thereof in Gaza, "It's an Israeli problem, they won't let us in." -Amanpour. And she's absolutely correct. Smh.
I have been under the impression for years that this conversation is not allowed on American television. Both Jon's opening and this interview .. Something ground breaking is happening. The Netanyahu legacy.
After @pple put the screws to him, Jon realized that he needed complete editorial control. Comedy Central was desperate to get Jon back and he leveraged that to get the control he needed. That's my guess anyway.
Even just ten years ago, Americans couldn't say that Israel was anything but splendid. Two words: Helen Thomas. Remember her?
yes! thanks to the young people in the streets and the voters
@anthonytwohill9726 many people say the reason Jon left so abruptly last time was exactly because of his criticism of Israel. When he was coming back I honestly thought he'd be more reserved but I'm so glad he's stuck to his convictions.
The criticism should be of Netanyahu and his government. Tons of Israelis are protesting this war in the streets. The antisemitism I see here is astounding!
The protests against the Iraq war were HUGE. I saw this here in Europe on CNN Int'l. A friend had just flown into Frankfurt from LAX, both airports carrying CNN. He was surprised at how much the protests were downplayed in the US. He told me "we don't get this information in the States".
Same thing here CNN Arabic on KZhead exposing IDF cri*mes but when you watch CNN international channel, nothing is the same
The protests in the US were huge. I lived in Seattle at the time. Which had a much smaller population then than it does now. 50,000 people marched on I-5 and blocked traffic for hours. LA, NYC and DC were even bigger.
@@missngfrombrooklynand nothing changed. Real democracy, the US.
NYC had 1million people protesting in the streets. It barely made the news.
Saw the same thing in North America. None of the news channels showed the first day of the ICJ trial where South Africa laid out a very convincing argument showing genocidal intent together with picture, statements, bodies and other evidence. The next day, they broadcast Israelis reply. Which did not refute a single accusation but went on a atrocity complaint and mentioned Hamas 66 times. Clearly hard to defend the indefensible
I can’t even believe they are saying Isreal had moral high ground. What moral high ground?? To take someone else country??? The level of gaslighting is ridiculous
Did you know Palestine was never a country? Did you know Jews were always there but most of them were ethnically cleansed? You're being brainwashed on social media
As a muslim arab living in the middle east I thank Jon Stewart for returning on air. The whole world needed to hear the voice of reason echo within the madness.
Hearing the nuance of this discussion it hartens me that it is possible to actually talk about the underlying issues🎉 Jon Stewart we are constantly astounded at your ability to bring the whole issue to the people
Not really, because the underlying issues were not significantly touched on at all, and that's not a criticism in and of itself, but this kind of segment is not suited to a proper discussion. The reality is that there's a lot of context that's extremely important, for instance in talking about Palestinian refugees you really do need to know the history and how that history is conceptualised by different groups. I'm not going to say "oh it's all so complex" because in many ways it's intensely simple, but without context people are not likely to recognise the nature of the situation. If you listened to this segment without being acquainted with the actual detail you would be reasonably likely to come away with a rather skewed perception. And of course, that's one reason why for so long US media has succeeded in sustaining a particular narrative, because its media has been consistent in recapitulating their internalised concept, without reference to the facts and because their audience, having not ever been educated on the facts are not able to discern how the issue is being framed and decontextualised. The issue is that you can't have these discussions at all without real clarity about what you're talking about. I applaud Jon for speaking his mind on a topic where very few are doing so, but he does have a rather reductive perspective all-in-all.
@@simonkapadia7582 I can not agree with you at all you used a lot of words to say nothing. First off John brought into crisp focus the fact that the Arab states around Israel have no interest in policing the Arab extremists that they've created. Many places like a run have totally changed in the last 40 years from an inclusive multicultural diverse system to a theocratic despotism. Looking not just at Israel but at all the neighbors there too is important. Secondly looking truly deeply at BB netanyahu and his horrifically bad track record it is clear that nothing is going to be done in Israel until the people of Israel are liberated from him. 3rd and finally this is not going to be resolved unless the war crimes on both sides are addressed and prosecuted Yes Hamas needs to face justice but so do the Zionist movement inside of Israel and all of their crimes. Hunger used as a weapon, forced relocation, the genocide of a people... unacceptable
*heartens *issues. *Stewart, we *people.
@@alvallac2171 solid criticism/editorializing what have you 👍

@@IDFpartyboi972 And my bad. I should say have been denying basic humanity for decades but I have to type fast to get out there faster than the Israel bots
@@WhataMensch Hey its hard work being an Israel bot
Plenty of western press outlets have been saying this for months, and every other time this has happened. The problem is the west in general is dealing with an increasingly deranged far right movement that will defend Israel no matter what it does.
They showed, what kind of people they are, and not only on October 7. Hey, Mensch, Germans were people too - all way from 1933 to 1945. Something about “liberating” was written on Auschwitz gates too
I can't tell you how glad I am to see you back doing the Daily Show. Strange how when the world gets lost and bit crazy how your show, over the years, has brought me comfort. Thank You!
It’s frustrating-‘of course Israel has the right to defend itself’ rhetoric is the same as saying ‘Israel has the right to defend its occupation’ and the Palestinians have NO right to resist the barbaric occupation’

4:58 the worst "single day" massacre in israel's history...- _the irony is that israeli expansionist forces have been carrying out such massacres of palestinians ad nauseum, thereby not allowing palestinians an opportunity to pinpoint one certain massacre "as the worst in a single-day"!_
It's refreshing to watch a show that not only allows for important conversations to take place but also shed light on the truth.
“Truth”
Thank you both Jon and Christiane for cutting through the noise (in the media and online) and talking about the real issues. Nothing can be resolved until the real facts, motivations, come out openly and without judgement.
Agree with those who said this should have been two hours long. So well done.
We find ourselves in an era where journalism faces unprecedented challenges. Your dedication to reporting on these issues is deeply appreciated. Your courage in shedding light on important matters is truly admirable. I offer my sincere gratitude for your kindness and insight. In a world too often troubled, it's individuals like you both who serve as guiding lights, leading us toward the restoration of our collective humanity.

You are the best Jon!thanks for standing for the truth
Peace will happen when Peace becomes profitable.
basically never then, cuz the whole land is rather small
"At the security council, there's a lot of people with vetoes." Um yeah, are you afraid to name them??? It isn't a very long list.
I find it fascinating that this clip is getting so much praise when it still stops short of the key issue. All this talk about 'someone somehow some leaders somewhere somehow magically coming together' is kind of..... ridiculous? There is one single person who could stop this with one phone call and that person has signed three bills in the last 6 months approving the sending of 14 billion, 18 billion, and most recently an additional 10 billion dollars to Israel. With zero strings attached. To not bring this up but waffle about 'the brave individuals speaking out for peace' feels honestly insulting. Like yes I appreciate them tackling it at least a little when compared to other media. But come on.
Also astonishing that Amanpour would criticize Arab countries for not offering citizenship to Palestinan refugees. This is what Netanyahu would love. This would give even more of a green light to Israel to ethnically cleanse Gaza and the West Bank and refuse Palestinians the right of return.
Amazing people with so many words of wisdom. I appreciate both of you for standing up with Humanity
We love intellectually honest journalists ! :)
Jon Stewart is a gift to this world...and OH MY, do I adore Christine Amanpour? I've been watching her for years.

The peace process was not a “failure” for Israeli settlements. These quadrupled during the piece process. “Piece of this, piece of that…”
What a great time for John to be back! Nobody could do it better. Such a pivotal moment in history and who better to talk about it on his platform.
one of my favourite things about jon stewart returning to the daily show (tbf, there are many) is seeing him rightfully criticize media organizations (in this case, cnn) for the lousy job that they do in front of one of their journalists!
Thank you Jon for your steadfast stance that towards atrocities the world cannot be neutral ... "The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything"―Albert Einstein
I am also appalled how the world watches innocent women and children get bombed, or starved to death, and they can go on about their daily business. Humanity perished many years ago, and we are the worst animal on the Earth as it is obvious.
Excellent interview. Thank you.

Amanpour lied and said that Israelis changing their prime minister is enough. That's a lie and she knows it. Israelis overall celebrate the genocide and their soldiers many crimes in Gaza. In fact since October 7th Israelis have killed hundreds of people in the West Bank and just agreed to annex even more land from Palestine. They have no intention of allowing Palestinian sovereignty and no plan on giving back the lands they've stolen. Stop believing her. She lied. People died. Jon Stewart should of called her out at that moment.
Amanpour and Stewart are both highly intelligent and savvy humans. Worth listening to and considering.
Dude... no. John is holding back, absolutely. He is on a leash. CNN head understands her job... she's not paid to think. She just spits the script. If you think any of this is ANY different, you're mentally stuck at this point.
@@shithoagieWhat are you talking about? This was a great honest and factual discussion. Was it not full of hateful emotion enough for you something? If so...

2:50 "No, it's an Israeli problem, they won't let us in!"
Really surprised that she had the guts to say it
But it's not an Israeli problem. The Israeli public is split on the atrocities and Netanyahu is taking advantage of that so as to avoid holding an election and ultimately ending up in prison for his many crimes. It's an AMERICAN problem! Because Biden could stop the genocide with a ten minute phone call if he wanted to.

I enjoyed being in the audience for this important discussion. Traveling back from New York the day after. I loved the way Jon answered questions from the audience. Very brilliant🎉
What were the kinds of questions thrown at Jon? 🤔
@MostafaMahdyy Oh, very detailed questions. I don't know it they make that segment public?
I’m sure this has been said, thousands of times before, and definitely more eloquently, but why is it that our most insightful comedians and satirists always get to the heart of issues so easily? From Mark Twain to Mort Sahl to George Carlin to Robin Williams to Jon Stewart - brilliance.
Never, ever forget George Carlin. He still is one of the best to get to the heart of the issues.
It is the role of comedy from the jester in a kings court to now. The role of comedian is to call truth to power.
One of my favorite Jon Stewart interviews ever, which is really saying something!
Nice to hear a fair discussion of facts for a change.

Agreed! Love Christianne Amanpour!
Whenever I travel around the world, I ask the local people to explain what is going on in their countries because our media only spoon-feeds us what they want us to know. I met an Israeli Gentleman a few years ago & when I asked him what was going on, he told me that every morning he wakes up, pours himself a cup of coffee, looks out his front window, & prays that his Son will come home alive from school that day. When he is done praying, he looks across his courtyard into his Palestinian neighbor's front window only to see him, doing the same thing. The leaders of our world's countries need to stop going after their self-interests & start actually looking out for their people. I will generalize here, "No person on Earth, wants to live if it is at the cost of their Brothers' & Sisters' lives. No person."
One of the best comments, brilliant.
Would watch Christiane Amanpour on basically anything.
Thank you Jon..we feel your frustration...❤️🙏
Such a fantastic honest and open conversation about the difficult stuff. Two intelligent,articulate and passionate journalists. Thank you

Amazing show! Glad someone is saying these things.
Ms. Amanpour is a well rounded, well traveled, wise woman. Who always has my ear. We learn by listening often, I am listening.
She is a bit off at 10:37, when she implies that there has not been votes for a cease fire in the UN.
So....why did she sell her soul to CNN? $$? ANYTHING but CNN. Well, almost anything; phox snooze is certainly not a candidate.
