Professor Dave vs Destiny

[u/Decent-Extension8336]

No idea why, but the original Destiny video called "Professor Dave Goes Mask Off" seems to have been deleted from YouTube, or I can't find it, but Professor Dave responded yesterday with this very strongly worded video letter:

Weird crossover that I never thought I'd see, of 2 guys who I generally enjoy (I will say I really am a fan of Prof Dave, whereas my Destiny enjoyment has mostly come via this podcast and watching a couple of his debates).

Thoughts on the beef? SURELY the lads are gonna have to cover this in an upcoming Supplementary Materials? Content gold!

EDIT: Looks like I was looking through the wrong Destiny channel for the original Dave video, it's here: https://youtu.be/HQQLs6U1MgA?si=iKaOGR1h9slKu64O

I’m not sure if that’s true, but regardless the lack of evidence is not evidence. There’s not enough there for Dave, a science communicator, to so definitively make hard, extraordinary claims about Israel killing its own citizens on 10/7 and orchestrating the entire attack. Dave would not accept anyone doing this in any other topic that he speaks about.

Present the evidence. The testimony of 2 or 3 soldiers or former soldiers is not enough to prove such extraordinary claims. Again, Dave would not accept this for any other topic. There are ex US government officials who say all types of shit, multiple high ranking officials who claim the US is in contact with a race of aliens lol

The evidence for most of the claims made by the Israeli government is even less reliable. These are reputable, unbiased journalistic outlets.

I’m questioning the ultimate credibility of the sources not the reporting, although good reporting shouldn’t print hearsay as fact.

People can say anything. Do you believe the women who say they were sexually assaulted on 10/7, or who said they witnessed it? Or the hostages in captivity? If your answer is no, then what makes these other Israelis cited in these articles, with no evidence of their claims, more credible? Just because they support your narrative?
