Shadowing Practice: Extended interview: Benjamin Netanyahu discusses alleged pilot stabbing on flight to Israel - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
Mr. Prime Minister, thank you very much for joining us tonight.
2
Thank you.
3
Good to be with you.
4
This is a day that could have ended very differently.
5
What do you know at this hour about exactly what happened?
6
I think what happened is a tremendous act of heroism that prevented another 9 -11 style crash of an entire airplane.
7
What we know is that this plane that was heading from Dubai to Israel,
8
as they approached Israel, One of the co -pilots stabbed or hit with an axe the other pilot, an Indian pilot.
9
And the pilot that was hit, bleeding profusely, fighting for his life, managed to unlock the pilot's door.
10
But the plane was going into a nosedive.
11
When they heard the screaming, a passenger, an Israeli passenger,
12
sitting in row 18, rushed to the cockpit, trying to open it.
13
When the plane started to nosedive, he was thrown aside in that area where the stewards are, the flight attendants are.
14
And somehow he managed, there was a moment where I think they hit an air bump or something.
15
Anyway, he had the opportunity.
16
He went through the door, bus through.
17
He saw the pilot that attacked the other co -pilot between the two seats, trying to jam the equipment, the flight equipment.
18
Obviously, it looks like he wanted to obviously bring the whole plane down.
19
Grabbed him from behind, pulled him back, then unbelievably took the stick, pulled it back.
20
This is not a pilot.
21
This is a plumber.
22
This is what he does.
23
I asked him, what do you do for a living?
24
Because I met him at the airport when they all came back to Israel.
25
And I said, what do you do for a living?
26
And he said, well, I'm, you know, I unclog sewage clogs.
27
And I said, well, he certainly unclogged a big one this time.
28
He was joined by another Israeli and one of the aircrew.
29
They overcame the attacker.
30
And then the reserve flight crew that were sitting with the passengers came in, stabilized the airplane.
31
It was difficult to do because the rudder and the tail had been damaged, but they managed to stabilize the plane,
32
bring it down in Saudi Arabia and save the day.
33
It's incredible heroism.
34
I don't know how he did it.
35
I have to tell you, I'm a veteran of a special unit.
36
I've been in tough places, but never like this.
37
It's incredible.
38
Mr. Prime Minister, it is an incredible story.
39
I've seen the pictures of that plane.
40
I'm curious at this hour what evidence you have
41
that this was an attempted hijacking and 9 -11 style attack and not something else.
42
I don't think it was a hijacking.
43
I think it looks like a suicide attempt simply because of what this hero Yaniv has described.
44
When he went in, this guy was trying to jam the equipment between the two flight seats, the pilot seats.
45
He wasn't sitting in the pilot seat trying to stabilize the plane.
46
He was trying to jam the equipment.
47
So that's pretty good evidence, I'd say.
48
But this is being, this pilot, the attacking pilot is now being interrogated in Saudi Arabia.
49
He'll be, I assume, moved very quickly to Dubai.
50
He's an Omani national.
51
He'll be investigated, interrogated, and we'll join the interrogation and find out what happened there exactly.
52
Mr. Prime Minister, the reason I ask is
53
because what makes you sure this is attempted terror and not a mental health issue of some description?
54
Well, it could be.
55
I don't know.
56
We'll find out soon.
57
We've had signs that Iran, and particularly through its proxies,
58
was intending to heighten terrorist attacks against Israel and Israeli nationals abroad.
59
BUT I THINK IT'S TOO EARLY TO SAY WHETHER THERE WAS, YOU KNOW, WHETHER THERE WAS THIS IRANIAN COLLUSION HERE.
60
I THINK WE 'LL FIND OUT.
61
WON'T TAKE A LONG TIME.
62
ARE YOU CONCERNED RIGHT NOW ABOUT OTHER FLIGHTS BOUND FOR ISRAEL?
63
YES, WE ARE, TONY.
64
WE AGREED WITH THE EMIRATIS.
65
I SPOKE TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATIS, SHEIKH MOHAMMAD BIN ZAYED, THAT WILL,
66
YOU KNOW, WILL SUSPEND NOW FLIGHTS FOR A FEW DAYS FOR A FLY DUBAI.
67
PLANES, TAKE A LOOK AT ALL THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, MAKE SOME SECURITY ADJUSTMENTS, BUT, YES, WE ARE CONCERNED WITH THAT AND WE'RE TAKING THE NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS.
68
WHO IS LEADING, WELL, WHAT PRECAUTIONS ARE THOSE, MR. PRIME MINISTER?
69
WELL, THE FIRST THING IS YOU WANT A BACKGROUND CHECK ON PILOTS.
70
I MEAN, ONE THING, AS YOU SEE, THERE'S PROBABLY A LOOPHOLE HERE, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE EVEN IF YOU HAVE METAL DETECTORS, THEY'RE USUALLY FOR THE PASSENGERS,
71
AND IT'S QUITE POSSIBLE THAT PILOTS Just don't go through that.
72
So, obviously, that's a loophole that has to be corrected, probably also bolster the actual checking of planes and so on.
73
So, in the meantime, we're going to have Israeli planes go fly to Dubai
74
and take the thousands and thousands of Israelis who are there.
75
You know, that's one of the great fruits of the Abraham Accords, this peace that we have with the United Emirates, Morocco and others.
76
Just a million Israelis have visited the United Arab Emirates.
77
I don't think people know that.
78
And that's been the case throughout the war.
79
The war didn't stop it.
80
This alliance or this relationship withstood the Iran war.
81
And so we have to now clear out some Israelis who are there, adjust, tighten the security arrangements.
82
And I'm very happy with the fact that the Emirates are cooperating with us.
83
We're working together to make sure this doesn't happen again.
84
It's been reported that the Israeli Air Force was scrambled after this APPARENT HIJACKING, IS THAT TRUE, AND WHAT IS THE POSTURE TONIGHT OF THE ISRAELI AIR FORCE?
85
ARE THEY ON ALERT FOR SOMETHING SIMILAR STILL TO COME?
86
YEAH, YES, WE ARE, BUT I THINK WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT CIVILIAN AIRCRAFT, IT'S NOT A QUESTION OF SCRAMBLING AIRCRAFT, IT'S MORE A QUESTION OF,
87
WHICH IS ALWAYS THE CASE WHEN YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, A STRANGE OR A SUSPECT, A PLANE APPROACHING OUR COUNTRY,
88
But in this case, the most important thing is to tighten the security arrangements, which we're doing.
89
Is there a specific fear?
90
Do you have intelligence about a planned 9 -11 style attack on Israel?
91
Not a specific 9 -11 attack.
92
That is not the issue.
93
The issue is terrorist attacks against Israelis abroad and Israel and inside Israel itself.
94
That's what we have.
95
We do have indications that the Iranian proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah in particular,
96
are planning attacks on us before the election, but I can't say specifically about airline hijacking.
97
Obviously, that's now coming to the roster, and we're going to look very carefully at that.
98
What do you think this day's event say about the broader security situation in the world for Israel right now?
99
Well, I think that we are aware of the fact that there is a very strong sense of
100
ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL
101
ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS
102
AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS
103
AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS
104
AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS
105
AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS
106
AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAEL AND ISRAELIS AND ISRAELIS AND AND THE MEANS TO DELIVER THEM TO EVERY CITY IN THE UNITED STATES.
107
IT WILL TAKE THEM SOME TIME, BUT THEY'RE WORKING ON THIS.
108
SO I THINK THAT THE FACT THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TIGHTENING THE ECONOMIC BLOCKADE ON IRAN IS VERY EFFECTIVE.
109
I THINK THAT'S, IT'S REALLY BEARING FRUIT.
110
MR. PRIME MINISTER, WHILE WE'RE TALKING AT THE MOMENT ABOUT THIS APPARENT TERROR ATTEMPT, THE MEMORY OF ANOTHER TERROR ATTACK IS STILL ON PEOPLE'S MINDS.
111
WE'RE COMING UP ON THE THREE - YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE OCTOBER FOR THE NUMBER SEVENTH ATTACKS
112
AND THERE ARE RECENT REPORTS THAT MULTIPLE FOREIGN COUNTRIES,
113
THE QATARIS, THE UAE, THE EGYPTIANS WITH A PERSONAL TRIP WARNED YOU ABOUT HAMAS'S WILLINGNESS AND DESIRE TO ATTACK ISRAEL.
114
DID YOU IGNORE THE WARNING, SIR?
115
I DIDN'T IGNORE ANY WARNINGS BECAUSE I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY WARNINGS.
116
I MEAN, THAT'S A COMPLETE HOAX.
117
But it's politically propagated by certain countries or by certain elements abroad, and they're simply false.
118
We are also coming up on about the one -year anniversary of the ceasefire in Gaza.
119
On October 6th, there was no Israeli presence within Gaza.
120
Now you control by the latest estimate, I saw 60 % of Gaza.
121
Is the intention tonight still to give all of that back?
122
NO, THE INTENTION RIGHT NOW IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT HORRIFIC ATTACK, WHICH OCCURRED ON OCTOBER 7TH, WHICH IS TANDEMONT TO THE MURDER OF,
123
PROPORTIONALLY, OF 40 ,000 AMERICANS IN ONE DAY, LESS THAN 24 HOURS, THAT IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN.
124
AND HAMAS, OF COURSE, IS COMMITTED TO DESTROYING ISRAEL.
125
IT DOESN'T HIDE IT.
126
IT SAYS SO OPENLY.
127
SO WE'RE MAKING SURE THAT THEY CAN'T WE HAVE A SECURITY COORDINATE AROUND IT, BUT I THINK THAT PEOPLE ARE GIVING HAMAS A PASS.
128
I MEAN, THESE ARE MURDERERS, MURDEROUS MONSTERS WHO, YOU KNOW, WHO RAPED OUR WOMEN AND THEN MURDERED THEM, BEHEADED MEN, BURNT BABIES ALIVE IN FRONT OF THEIR PARENTS.
129
MR. PRIME MINISTER.
130
AND I CHALLENGE YOU, TONY, AND EVERYONE ELSE LISTEN TO ME.
131
WHAT WOULD AMERICA DO IF I'M A NEIGHBORING TERRITORY?
132
you had that kind of attack on Americans.
133
You'd make sure that never happens again.
134
And that's what we're doing in Gaza right now.
135
But, Mr. Prime Minister, that's not the question.
136
The question is this 60 % hold that the Israeli military has inside Gaza.
137
Is your intention today still to reach a point where all of that is given back to the Palestinians?
138
No, my goal right now is to make sure that the Hamas terrorists who are still in Gaza, still planning to murder us every day,
139
to kidnap our soldiers, to fire rockets into our cities, that they don't have the capacity to do so.
140
And they, indeed, we reduce that capacity greatly.
141
But obviously, as long as Hamas is there, as long as we haven't dismantled their military capability, their terror capability, and their governance there,
142
that's going to be continue to be an Islamist stronghold, spitting distance from Tel Aviv, that is out to destroy us.
143
So when we're there, we're not there because we have great colonialist impulses.
144
It's ridiculous.
145
I mean, Israel is one -third of one -tenth, one -third of one percent of the entire landmass of the Arab world.
146
We're in Gaza, which is a tiny area, to make sure that they don't launch from this terrorist bastion more attacks on us.
147
And that's why we're there.
148
I think once Hamas is removed, once Hamas is neutralized, once we disarm Hamas, other possibilities come into mind.
149
But until that happens, yes, we're going to protect our people.
150
You're damn right we're going to do it.
151
But these goals are not incompatible.
152
You can pursue the terror threat, which you talk about often, while also speak to the future when that land is back in Palestinian control and there is some vision for the future.
153
Could you say a few words tonight about the latter?
154
Yes, I can.
155
I think what we can see is that once we eliminate Hamas, or for that matter, Hezbollah and Lebanon, Lebanon would make peace with us in two seconds IF HEZBALLA WASN'T THERE.
156
SO IF WE ELIMINATE THOSE TWO MALIGN FORCES, YES, WE CAN HAVE A FUTURE OF PEACE BOTH WITH GAZA AND THE FUTURE OF PEACE WITH LEBANON,
157
BUT I THINK FIRST WE HAVE TO GET RID OF THESE TERRORIST BASTIANS THAT ARE AS CRUEL AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, AS MONSTROUS AS YOU CAN IMAGINE.
158
I MEAN, IT'S JUST AMAZING TO ME THAT PEOPLE IN THE WEST SAY, WELL, OKAY, THEY MURDERED 40 ,000, THE EQUIVALENT OF 40 ,000 AMERICANS AND ONE DAY,
159
AND WHY ARE YOU STILL IN GAZA? because they're still in Gaza.
160
That's why we're there.
161
And we should be there.
162
And you would be there, too, if you have faced similar circumstances.
163
In fact, you sent, and rightly so, you sent your forces against al -Qaeda, and you went into Fallujah,
164
you went into Mosul, and so on.
165
And of course, I'm not sure
166
that America took more security precautions than we did to make sure that civilians are out of harm's way,
167
sending millions of text messages to the ENEMIES POPULATION TO THE PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS, GET OUT OF HARM'S WAY BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO GO AFTER HAMAS,
168
AND HAMAS AT GUNPOINT KEPT THEM IN HARM'S WAY.
169
SO ISRAEL DID UNBELIEVABLE THINGS, TEXT MESSAGES, PHONE CALLS, MILLIONS OF LEAFLETS, AND HAMAS TRIED TO KEEP THEM THERE.
170
THAT'S WHY YOU HAD THE CASUALTIES.
171
THAT'S NOT THE QUESTION.
172
THE QUESTION THAT I'M TRYING TO POINT YOUR MIND.
173
IT'S NOT THAT YOU DON'T HAVE THE QUESTION, you don't like my answer.
174
It is the question and that is the answer.
175
The future.
176
When you think about the future there, you mentioned a future in which peace is a possibility.
177
If and when there is peace, what is the status of Gaza?
178
I think whatever the status of Gaza is, it's not going to have Hamas there.
179
And I'll tell you one other thing.
180
Because the distances are so tiny,
181
from Gaza to Tel Aviv to Jerusalem to the Kibbutzim and the Israeli communities that are literally meters away,
182
I cannot see a future in which Israel does not have the overriding security responsibility over this territory.
183
And I think rightly so.
184
Otherwise, you know, it's just a question of time that Hamas will reestablish itself.
185
I DON'T KNOW IF IRAN WILL POUR IN THE MONEY AND THE WEAPONS TO RE -ESTABLISH THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE FANATICS.
186
THEY ARE COMMITTED TO OUR DESTRUCTION.
187
THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR PEOPLE.
188
THEY BUILT THESE UNDERGROUND TUNNELS, HUNDREDS OF KILOMETERS FOR THEMSELVES.
189
THEY DIDN'T LET ANY CIVILIANS GO IN THERE.
190
SO THEY DON'T CARE ONE HOOT AND ONE BIT ABOUT THEIR CIVILIANS.
191
THEY ARE WILLING TO KILL AND KILL AND KILL.
192
SO THE ONLY WAY YOU ARE GOING TO STOP THIS IS BY DESTROYING THEM.
193
And it's like the only way you got peace in Germany is by destroying the SS.
194
You didn't say, oh, well, we'll leave an enclave of the SS and then we'll have peace.
195
No, you destroyed this murderous regime and then you got peace.
196
We have to destroy this murderous regime of Hamas and then we'll get peace.
197
Hamas is being glorified on American networks and especially in social media.
198
You know, I have, I hear gays for Gaza.
199
That's, I liken it to, you know, chickens for KFC.
200
These people shoot gays.
201
They're the worst offenders of human rights on the planet.
202
And people have, you know, just been taken in by this vast campaign of propaganda against Israel.
203
Israel is fighting for civilization.
204
Israel is fighting these barbarians.
205
We fought shoulder to shoulder with the Americans against their patron, Iran, the head of the octopus, if you will.
206
But we are committed to cutting off these tentacles that can threaten us and can kill a lot of Americans.
207
And by the way, on that day of October 7th, they killed dozens and dozens of Americans.
208
Mr. Prime Minister, I'm aware of the Israeli security situation, and I've heard you say those things before.
209
My goal with these final questions was just trying to turn your mind to some future state of conditions, of status.
210
I've heard your answer on that as well.
211
And I I'M GLAD TODAY, TOTALLY, HERE IT IS, I THINK IT'S THREE THINGS.
212
ONE, YOU HAVE TO DEMILITARIZE GAZA,
213
AND THIRD, YOU HAVE TO DERADICALIZE THE SITUATION IN GAZA BECAUSE THEY IMBIBE WITH THEIR MOTHER'S MILK THIS HATRED,
214
THIS INSANE HATRED FOR JEWS AND FOR ISRAEL, AND BY THE WAY, FOR AMERICANS, TOO, AND THEY HAVE SUICIDE KINDERGARTEN CAMPS.
215
You got to understand this.
216
I do.
217
I've been there multiple times and covered it, Mr. Prime Minister.
218
I am aware.
219
I was just creating some space to say something new tonight.
220
If you were ready in the context of today's events and the campaign there in Israel, I understand you don't see this as the time for this conversation,
221
but I wanted to ask the question anyway.
222
No, I do see it as the time.
223
My view hasn't changed.
224
I think we need to disarm, DEMILITARIZE AND DERADICALIZE GAZA.
225
THAT WAY IT WILL GIVE GAZANS A FUTURE AND GIVE US A FUTURE OF PEACE.
226
THAT'S A SENSIBLE AND REALISTIC PLAN.
227
THE PLAN THAT SAYS, NO, ISRAEL, JUST WITHDRAW, SHUT YOUR EYES AND HOPE FOR THE BEST.
228
NO, THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT WAY TO DO IT.
229
WE HAVE TO BE REALIST.
230
WE HAVE TO HAVE A HOPE FOR THE FUTURE, BUT WE HAVE TO CREATE THAT FUTURE.
231
AND THE WAY YOU CREATE IT
232
WHEN YOU'RE SURROUNDED RIGHT NEXT DOOR WITH THE WORST TERRORISTS ON EARTH IS TO GET RID OF THE TERRORISTS.
233
Mr. Prime Minister, I'm glad today it turned out differently than it could have.
234
It could have been a much worse day, and I thank you for your time tonight.
235
Thank you, Tony.
236
I appreciate it.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
