Shadowing Practice: The Israeli Flight Hijacking Doesn't Make Sense - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creating lesson...
1
okay we're gonna get to uh the the israeli 9 -11 in a second
2
a little more than two hours into the journey from dubai
3
to tel aviv screams after the co -pilot allegedly attacked the
4
captain in the cockpit then a sudden steep dive the plane
5
plunging 14 000 feet in less than 30 seconds okay this part i'm sorry red flag on the play.
6
I'm sorry.
7
I've talked to plenty of plane autists.
8
The, the idea that this plane was dropping 14 ,000 feet in altitude in a matter of like 30 seconds.
9
And then the dude just grabbed the yoke and cranked it and,
10
and was able to successfully bring the plane back up sorry
11
there's a lot of red flags in the story there's a lot of suspicious things in this story
12
okay but that part seems impossible it's it doesn't just seem far -fetched it seems impossible
13
so what i will say is this perhaps it's a misunderstanding
14
perhaps in the heat of the moment they thought the plane had actually dropped
15
that much or i don't know because there are certain elements of this story that are not implausible.
16
Definitely.
17
Uh, there's two pilots.
18
Uh, one pilot decides, you know, this, uh, I'm going to do a nine 11 on Israel.
19
He, he stabs the other pilot, but the other pilot in a panic still hits the emergency squawk button
20
and is able to like open the door and call for help.
21
Then some of the, uh, people, some of the passengers rush in,
22
uh in the commotion and and successfully apprehend the pilot right that's taken the plane hostage
23
and then they crank the yoke back and make sure
24
that the plane stops dropping in altitude like stops nose diving right
25
and there's also apparently another team uh another air crew that's in transit on the plane.
26
So they're able to land the plane.
27
Ali Abunima also doesn't think that this story is fake, by the way.
28
So there are certain elements of the story that do make sense.
29
I'm going to cover both sides of this.
30
I'm going to cover both sides of the story.
31
I'm going to talk about what the red flags are and why this reeks of conspiracy.
32
But then I'm also going to tell you why it could have possibly happened.
33
Let's talk about why this could have possibly happened.
34
Then we'll talk about the red flags around the story.
35
Ali Abunima says, according to an eyewitness account given the new york times the fly dubai cockpit door was partly open unclear
36
if the injured pilot had managed to open it from the inside
37
but that's entirely plausible so that's
38
that is uh what you know people have said uh took
39
place the point is according to this account the door was not broken into which
40
if this is accurate was also a big question people have been wildly speculating about this is also from yesterday
41
so there was already like a lot of suspicion on the timeline given
42
that it's a story that is related to israel given the fact
43
that Benjamin Netanyahu had visited Dubai or Abu Dhabi a couple days prior,
44
given the fact that Benjamin Netanyahu had also one day prior to this event, fear mongered about a potential terror attack against Israel being imminent.
45
And then Shin Bet and the Israeli intelligence community actually came out and contradicted this reporting.
46
So this has been quite the controversy in Israeli politics.
47
Remember, the Israeli elections are happening on October 27th, I believe, if I'm not getting the date wrong.
48
October 27th is when the Israeli elections are happening.
49
Now, Benjamin Netanyahu, post -October 7, has not had to receive legal scrutiny.
50
There's an active court case, and he's not been measured by the public in a normal election up until this very moment.
51
So the timing of this is awfully convenient for Benjamin Netanyahu's purposes.
52
Let's just make that very clear.
53
So Ali Abunima continues, but all this is plausible.
54
And I mentioned it to say there is no point in people spinning definitive stories with little knowledge based on huge assumptions.
55
Remember, Ali is obviously an anti -Zionist and also he's the founder, the director of the Electronic Intifada.
56
It's not like he's a fan of Israel, but he's a good reporter.
57
He's a diligent reporter.
58
Um, and I mentioned it to say, there's no point in people spinning definitive stories with little knowledge based on huge assumptions.
59
Of course, Israel will spin the story to its best advantage, which they are doing right.
60
And Benjamin and Yahoo is doing it as well.
61
Um, he's, he has been exploiting this, uh, story as aggressively as one could, but that does not mean Israel created the incident.
62
As I said earlier, this incident does not help Israel because it's diplomatic aviation, tourist, and military relations with the UAE are one of its greatest assets in the world.
63
in a world that is increasingly despising israel it's bad for israel and if israel wanted to create
64
an incident aboard an airliner in order to create a pretext for something this is not the obvious route
65
or target they would choose it's entirely plausible one pilot attacked
66
the other in order to take control over the plane it's
67
plausible it was politically motivated a person reacting to genocide
68
or other israeli crimes is plausible it was not politically motivated think of the 2015 german wings yeah
69
that one is eliminated from the possibilities by the way given
70
where the plane started taking a dive you know suicides sometimes happen they're awfully tragic
71
but usually when there is some kind of like suicidal ideation amongst one of the pilots
72
that you know passed the the screening process for some reason
73
they don't try to do it by striking a target uh
74
they don't try to do it uh they do it away
75
in more circumstances they do it you know they try to crash it into the ocean
76
or they try to crash it into a mountain, something like that.
77
So that part I think is, I don't think that's a, that's an alternative theory here at this point.
78
Also note that the New York times account says the passengers landed the plane, which on its face sounds totally implausible.
79
However, qualified pilots also travel as passengers.
80
And this could have well been the case.
81
And yes, that apparently was the case.
82
There was another air crew on board the flight.
83
The aircraft was successfully secured by on -duty fly Dubai crew traveling on the flight.
84
All I'm saying is that it is just a bit wearying that people profess complete certainty, sometimes just for engagement based on extrapolations,
85
assumptions, incomplete information, and total fantasy.
86
That element does make sense, right?
87
So there are certain things that could have happened.
88
They did say the plumber that landed it.
89
No, the plumber did not land the plane.
90
No, they said the plumber rested control over the yoke
91
and pulled it back after the pilot that was holding the plane hostage was apprehended.
92
However, my assessment is not dissimilar to many professionals.
93
I've talked to people with knowledge over this
94
and their assessment is the same as mine it is virtually
95
impossible for a plane not to receive tremendous structural damage mechanical failure
96
and basically disintegrate for it to nosedive 14 000 feet in altitude
97
and then to recover it's just not happening these planes are
98
not capable no it's not austin guys austin's not the only
99
person i i know yes there was some structural damage of
100
photos showing damage to the tail of fly dubai incurred during its rapid descent
101
but this is not the level of structural damage
102
that you would get with the numbers that they're suggesting
103
so something doesn't add up i know the drop comes from
104
uh the tracked flight data i know the problem is the black box would basically reveal all of this
105
but the issue is can you trust it,
106
especially when, you know, this is still advantageous for the current Israeli government that is deeply unpopular,
107
that is trying to make a story out of this, a much larger story out of this that is politically advantageous for themselves.
108
Let's watch what these pilots had to say.
109
Now, Aaron Murphy, he's a commercial pilot and a flight instructor in Canada.
110
He's in a flight simulator right now with us, along with his colleague, Angelo Patterson.
111
Peterson, I'm sorry, who's flying the simulator so thanks
112
so much to both of you
113
so as angela's gonna fly they're trying to be austin show
114
so bad by the way like this is this is actually
115
phony this is phony of aaron burnett to do i'm sorry you saw austin show
116
and you were like can we make that happen
117
aaron the plane is flying normally for two hours right
118
and you know that's a route i think there's at least 10 of these flights a day right back
119
and forth and back and forth and most people on
120
that plane had probably been on that route many times
121
and you look down and it's desert pretty much the whole way
122
so you're just kind of lulled there staring into space
123
and then it drops more than 20 ,000 feet in 35
124
seconds finally topping out at a speed we understand of 700 miles an hour plus
125
uh so so can you just show us what
126
that looks like we certainly can
127
and uh Aaron hello thanks for inviting us onto the show tonight
128
and all your viewers of course uh Angelo is going to take us through exactly
129
that procedure that happened to the flight and by flight
130
and we're going to start that right now let me just change the view
131
and we can take a closer look at things on the outside of the aircraft
132
and the instrumentation i will be trying to give everyone a
133
bit of a little bit of information on what's happening on the primary flight display as we go along
134
which is the image you're seeing in the lower left corner Angelo,
135
when you're ready, if you'd like to take us through a really nasty descent in the MAX 8, and of course this is a 737 -800,
136
but let's pretend it's a MAX 8.
137
When you're ready, sir.
138
Autopilot disconnect. And down we go.
139
And if you can give us the external view of the aircraft when you're ready, Angelo.
140
Thank you.
141
there we are with the flight of i that's the 800 model right there
142
and right there is the overspeed warning
143
and i'm gonna just get my hand in here if i can
144
and start pointing a little bit on the screen
145
if you can see my hand on the left side of
146
that screen right there there's the barber pole indicating the overspeed we're looking at nothing
147
but ground on the prime reflect display on the attitude here
148
by the way i've literally done this like what they're doing i've literally done with austin
149
if you remember in england in the exact same simulator
150
and the jet if you could take a look in the center of your screen
151
that is approximately what we would have seen we are now
152
recovering at about 18 17 16 000 feet perhaps a little more of a dive than the aircraft did today
153
i mean back to you yeah
154
so okay just to even imagine what that's like i know
155
there were some people they said they were sort of standing
156
by the bathroom right they would have fallen immediately i mean it frankly it's miraculous put it back up
157
It's the overspeed warning that's clicking away in the background, not the stick shaker.
158
Stick shaker's at the other end of the spectrum where you're stalling the aircraft.
159
So that is still going.
160
We are just coming into about 500 knots.
161
So some of the numbers that we're seeing from the reporting initially are, they don't make sense to me because if you're descending that rapidly,
162
the aircraft would have disintegrated completely.
163
So the numbers will change when we get the preliminary report.
164
Oh, that's interesting because that, those, I mean, as you point out, those are only the numbers that we have right now.
165
But interesting that you said that that could have caused it to break apart
166
and that maybe some of those are a little higher than actually happened.
167
We do know there was damage on the rudder, right, from whatever the speeds actually will turn out to be.
168
And portions of it apparently tore away during flight.
169
Now, obviously, with serious damage to the rudder, a plane's going to crash so
170
when you just look at what we know here like this is not the type of damage
171
that we're talking about with the numbers that they're claiming
172
and not only that but also there's a 100
173
or 170 passengers on this flight right many of them have cell phones
174
so some of them actually filmed the process when they saw the commotion taking place and when they were filming uh Uh,
175
the, the interior was not consistent with, uh, you know, receiving a G force by,
176
by diving, uh, uh, 15 ,000 feet or 14 ,000 feet in altitude.
177
Think about the experience that you have.
178
If you've ever flown, think about the experience you have within, uh, you know, when you're, when you're flying through turbulence, this would be far worse than that.
179
I've been in a plane.
180
I've been in a stunt plane.
181
I've flown a stunt plane myself.
182
I've nosedived in a stunt plane.
183
The experience obviously is a much smaller plane, but the experience is very particular.
184
It's virtually impossible for you to stand up and walk around without being connected to something if you are diving,
185
nosediving, 14 ,000 feet in altitude.
186
Falling is not positive Gs yes
187
but it's it's still it's like the uh the stomach effect
188
that you feel it's like zero gravity
189
and then cranking the yoke back up would then actually uh
190
force you to experience uh g -force like this recording this
191
recording is not consistent with the plane descending 14 000 feet
192
in altitude in a matter of 30 seconds it's not that's not real
193
now this could potentially be after right when the
194
when the plane is recovered but there's no casually walking like that doesn't exist
195
no oxygen mass deployed no that's normal that that happens in in uh cabin depressurization right
196
It would take a loss in cabin pressure.
197
Yeah.
198
There has to be like air breach or something uh, for the oxygen mass to, uh, to, to drop.
199
Otherwise you would have to flick it.
200
yourself there was a video i saw earlier
201
that says these types of planes have a system in place not to allow a plane to nosedive like
202
that yes it's the autopilot
203
but they he could have flicked it off how fortunate do you think it is
204
that this plane was actually even able to safely land
205
well
206
when i saw the images of the aircraft on the ground
207
with the rudder section torn out uh i immediately had a cold chill
208
because the amount of damage that
209
that would cause hydraulic systems electrical systems especially hydraulics once you start ripping apart electronic
210
or sorry hydraulics you start to bleed electronic fuel
211
or hydraulic fuel excuse me I'll get my words right here and
212
that would have affected other systems in the airplane the saving grace on this one is at the vertical fin
213
so you'll see the vertical fin of the aircraft
214
and then the rudder is at the rear portion the rear portion of
215
that that rudder was torn away the vertical fin was what saved the day because that gave the aircraft directional stability.
216
And I do not know how much longer they could have flown it after they landed
217
because of the loss of hydraulic fluid due to the rudder being removed from the aircraft.
218
So this is a very incredible story about the MAX 8.
219
We've seen the MAX 8 in the news before.
220
I've been certainly involved with that.
221
And to see this aircraft land safely after going, I think it went supersonic momentarily.
222
I think that MAX 8 is uh fully redeemed it's an excellent aircraft
223
that old airframe everyone's questioning how safe
224
that was i think we just got our answer the other problems were something else entirely
225
i grabbed the attacker this part was also insane
226
so i already told you i already told you it was wild
227
that you know benjamin netanyahu timing of this could not be
228
crazier the timing of this is is unbelievably beneficial unbelievably fortuitous for benjamin netanyahu
229
and not only that
230
but then also this guy who is the guy who uh pulled the yoke back
231
and and was part of the people
232
that like apprehended the other pilot he also still is like wearing the bloody shirt
233
and everything which i don't really understand
234
because the plane actually landed in saudi arabia
235
and this is like 10 hours after the fact
236
and also benjamin benjamin i was obviously giving interviews exclusives to american media
237
while still avoiding israeli media by the way put him in a chokehold
238
and dragged him out first passenger yaniv hayoon told israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu his shirt still stained with blood.
239
Two other guys came over, he said.
240
I jumped back, grabbed the controls and started pulling back the handles.
241
The plane started to level out a bit and then the pilot told me he was taking over the controls from there.
242
Hayoun told Netanyahu he knew what to do because he watched documentaries about plane crashes.
243
Mr. Prime Minister, thanks so much for joining us today.
244
Thank you.
245
Pleasure to be with you.
246
Well, Prime Minister, first off, the thing comes to mind as you've had a chance to
247
bro i don't understand why is this doing victory laps like
248
he was the one who saved the plane he went on cbs he went on fox news he's like going
249
he's doing wall -to -wall american news coverage by the way
250
running for government in running for prime minister in israel
251
but for some strange reason only doing american media
252
and also why is he acting like he was the one who saved the plane hear the first -hand accounts
253
and read the REPORTS THAT WE PROBABLY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO.
254
WHAT DO YOU THINK PROMPTED THIS ATTACK?
255
WELL, THIS IS BEING INVESTIGATED NOW.
256
AND AS YOU KNOW, THE ATTACKER, THE CO -PILOT WHO ATTACKED THE CAPTAIN IS NOW BEING INTERROGATED.
257
BUT HERE'S WHAT WE DO KNOW.
258
FIRST, WE KNOW THAT HE UNDERWENT ISLAMIST RADICAL INDOCTRINATION.
259
THAT APPEARS TO BE SOMETHING WE'RE GATHERING.
260
okay dude yeah israeli interrogation for those of you don't know
261
famously israel doesn't interrogate suspects they torture them to get a
262
confession out of them a tortured confession that's not usable in
263
a court of law they do it just for propaganda purposes
264
from the information his personal information uh we also know that after he was subdued you know that this guy was
265
HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
266
HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
267
HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
268
JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
269
HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
270
HE WAS IN THE CENTER TRYING TO JAM THE INSTRUMENTS.
271
Thank you.
272
OF THE EARPHONES IN THE COCKPIT.
273
I MEAN, TALK ABOUT IMPROVISATION.
274
THEN THEY FINALLY GOT THESE PLASTIC, WHATEVER YOU CALL, YOU KNOW, CUFS THAT THEY HAVE.
275
TIES.
276
BUT, AND THEN HE'S LYING THERE NOW.
277
HE'S THIS ATTACKER.
278
AND HE CALLS OUT TO THE AIR CREW, KILL ME.
279
KILL ME, ALL RIGHT?
280
SO IT'S CLEAR HE WAS SUICIDAL.
281
THAT'S NOT A QUESTION.
282
IT WAS CLEAR HE WAS GOING TO DOWN that plane.
283
Oh, it's not clear, but it looks very likely
284
that he was going to down the plane and with all the passengers in there.
285
And if you couple that with the, what I just told you about the Islamist, uh, um, tendencies that, uh,
286
radicalization that, uh, are found in his background.
287
I think that's a pretty good clue.
288
But again, I don't, uh, make final, uh, conclusions yet but that's the indication what you just did
289
but this entire thing was you making a final conclusion you literally started with your conclusion
290
that he's an islamist radicalized by the irgc we have now it looks like he was head bent on bringing
291
that plane down with i just want to slow you down
292
a little bit uh on on what he was saying once he got captured can you take us before he got captured,
293
though, what did he say as he's trying to take over the plane?
294
Did he say anything to the pastor?
295
Does he say anything about his radical ties, a la anything?
296
No, no, none of that, because what the passenger, the hero,
297
Yaniv, who broke in, he heard that passengers next to the cockpit were saying that there's screaming going on,
298
this there's a stabbing going on uh obviously there was god america's is
299
so afraid well did he say ala akbar did he say
300
i am hamas ala akbar like we see in the television movies
301
the indian pilot who was stabbed the captain was screaming his head off probably
302
so they heard
303
that this uh this hero rushed over wanted to get into the cockpit the plane was taking a dive
304
so he was knocked down.
305
He finally got his bearing, broke into the cockpit, yanked the attacker from the instrument panel, overcame him, took over the stick,
306
the pilot stick, and pushed back.
307
He said to—I asked him, how did you know how to do that?
308
And he said, well, I watched these air disaster films.
309
I told that to President Trump yesterday.
310
He was amazed, you know, because we all see these films
311
so to actually be in this thing this is this is
312
hollywood on steroids you can't make this up you can't believe
313
that it actually happens in real life but it did
314
and then what transpired and forgive me just for telling you
315
that this is
316
so important this is these are ordinary civilians you know israeli
317
citizens who became heroes superheroes i mean one guy over overcame the attacker.
318
The other helped tie him up.
319
The guy, a doctor came in.
320
He's a dentist, by the way, to take care of the Indian pilot.
321
But then he told his wife, go back and calm the passengers.
322
So she herself just overcame her fear she was going to die and calmed the passengers.
323
It's so weird.
324
He keeps saying Indian pilot.
325
And another one guarded the cockpit so no one comes in.
326
I mean, they acted, you know, I served I SERVED IN A SPECIAL FORCES UNIT, SO I KNOW THAT SOMETIMES WE'RE CALLED TO ACT UNDER STRESS,
327
BUT THESE ARE SPECIAL FORCES OFFICERS.
328
THESE GUYS ARE REGULAR CIVILIANS, AND THEY DID A JOB.
329
I'M NOT SURE THAT MY TEAM COULD HAVE DONE ANY BETTER.
330
I'M NOT SURE THEY COULD HAVE DONE WHAT THEY DID.
331
THEY'RE SUPERHEROES, AND THEY SAVED THE DAY.
332
WELL, BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS TO SERVE IN THE MILITARY IN ISRAEL.
333
THERE WERE A LOT OF AMAZING INDIVIDUALS ON THAT PLANE.
334
THEY WERE NOT GOING TO LET IT GO DOWN, AND IT IS INCREDIBLE.
335
IT'S A LOT OF PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY AFTER WE JUST REMEMBERED 9 -11 AFTER 25 YEARS.
336
THIS COULD HAVE GONE SO TERRIBLY WRONG.
337
BUT THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT STEPPED IN.
338
AND IT'S AMAZING AND INCREDIBLE THAT THERE WERE TWO PILOTS SITTING IN THE BACK.
339
THEY WERE DEADHEADING AND THEY WERE IN THE BACK OF THE PLANE AND WENT TO LAND THE PLANE.
340
BECAUSE YOU COULD PUT IT ON AUTOPILOT BUT LANDING IT IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT THING.
341
BUT LET ME ASK YOU, IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW THERE'S A PILOT AND YOU'RE HEADING TO ISRAEL
342
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS WATCHING THERE'S CERTAIN PLANES THAT CANNOT LAND IN ISRAEL, CERTAIN COUNTRIES YOU DON'T ALLOW TO LAND IN ISRAEL.
343
HOW COULD THIS PILOT GET ON BOARD A PLANE IF THEY KNEW HE WAS RADICALIZED?
344
DID THEY KNOW THAT?
345
DID HE JUST GET RADICALIZED AND NOBODY KNEW?
346
DO YOU DO INVESTIGATIONS TO MAKE SURE PILOTS, BECAUSE AFTER 9 -11 WE LEARNED A LOT.
347
DO YOU MAKE SURE THAT THERE ARE NO RADICALIZED OR GOING FORWARD PILOTS THAT ARE FLYING INTO ISRAEL?
348
Well, he was an Omani national,
349
and we have constraints that say you can't have pilots who don't have—from countries that don't have diplomatic relations with Israel.
350
So, obviously, he was able to go through that.
351
So, there's a loophole there, how to make sure that we screen pilots in advance.
352
And that's what we did, by the way, with the pilots that came to take our passengers from Saudi Arabia to Israel.
353
We checked their background.
354
But obviously there was there was a loophole here and we're taking care of that, among other things, by the way.
355
But and with the full cooperation, I have to say, of the Emirati government.
356
So we're both interested in making sure this doesn't happen again.
357
And it might be attempted again because we have indications that
358
that the Iran and its proxies are trying to conduct attacks against Israel and Israelis right now in this election season.
359
Why would Iran do this instead of just lobbing ballistic missiles in Israel's direction?
360
They literally have shown their capabilities.
361
Like, I mean, I'm seriously, I'm asking seriously, what is the argument here?
362
And therefore, I asked Israelis to be on special alert.
363
But we're going to probably draw a lot of conclusions from this investigation and tighten up the security.
364
We always try to do that.
365
We do a pretty good job of it.
366
You do a great job.
367
MR. PRIME MINISTER, WE JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE WEAPONS.
368
WE THOUGHT, HOW DID HE GET A KNIFE ON BOARD?
369
BUT YOU TOLD SEAN HANNITY LAST NIGHT, IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE ACTS THAT'S STANDARD IN CERTAIN AIRLINES IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.
370
WE DON'T KNOW.
371
I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT.
372
YOU DON'T KNOW YET?
373
THERE ARE TWO POSSIBILITIES.
374
ONE, THAT HE DIDN'T GO THROUGH A METAL DETECTOR BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, PASSENGERS GO THROUGH A METAL DETECTOR, BUT I'M NOT SURE THEIR PILOTS ALWAYS.
375
YES, THEY DO.
376
WHAT THE F* ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? brother have you not
377
been at an airport what are you talking about of course pilots go through the metal detector i guess
378
when you're prime minister you just don't go through any metal detectors
379
so you don't know but let's do it
380
because you know you say okay he's part of the air crew let him go
381
number one and then he could have carried a knife
382
or an axe or he might have gotten an axe from the equipment in the uh you know
383
that might be standard on this he's like we haven't we haven't invented the narrative for
384
that part yet okay why are you on television then
385
if you don't know the answered to these questions maybe you
386
should have waited until the investigation was concluded it's not like you are the one who saved the plane he's
387
so horny to farm this dude yeah he's coming across like
388
he's a b testing the answers he's like you know what
389
what would you like to hear yeah maybe it was an
390
axe maybe it was a knife you asked me how we could get the knife through we haven't thought about
391
that yet airplane we're looking into that so i can't draw conclusions yet
392
but it looks like i mean it's really it looks like
393
he had been radicalized uh i think it's too early to
394
say yeah uh new reporting came out he said i hate
395
the likud party that's why i'm doing this the only way
396
that you can stop people like me is
397
if you vote for benjamin netanyahu it's crazy i couldn't believe it either
398
but that's what the that's what the radicalized omani pilot was saying Can you believe it?
399
Whether he had any connections with Iran or with anyone else, it's too early to say that.
400
But we'll be able to say that very definitely, I think, fairly definitively.
401
Not fairly.
402
I think we'll be able to say it definitively within a matter of days.
403
So, Mr. Prime Minister, I guess it's a two -part question.
404
Who do you think helped radicalize this guy?
405
What are your suspicions?
406
I know you can't say conclusively right now.
407
Hassan Piger.
408
AND THE INVESTIGATION.
409
THE INVESTIGATION.
410
ALSO, OMAN, ARE THEY COOPERATING WITH THE INVESTIGATION RIGHT NOW?
411
I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE WE'RE NOT CONDUCTING THE INVESTIGATION.
412
THE INVESTIGATION RIGHT NOW, THE ACTUAL, WELL, WE ARE CONDUCTING OBVIOUSLY AN INVESTIGATION ON HIS BACKGROUND AND SO ON.
413
BUT I THINK IT'S TOO EARLY TO SAY.
414
BUT WE ARE COOPERATING CLEARLY WITH THE UNITED ARAB WE 'LL CONDUCT A VERY THOROUGH INVESTIGATION.
415
WE 'LL CONDUCT A VERY THOROUGH INVESTIGATION.
416
WE 'LL GET DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THINGS VERY SOON.
417
WHAT ABOUT OMAN?
418
LOOK, OMAN, I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING DIRECTLY ABOUT THEM.
419
YOU KNOW, THE LATE SULTAN KABOOZ,
420
THE LEADER OF IRAN, INVITED ME A FEW YEARS AGO TO JOIN HIM.
421
THIS WAS AN EXTENSION, I THINK, THE BEGINNING OF THE EXTENSION OF THE ABRAHAM ACCORD WHICH ISRAELIS, A MILLION ISRAELIS GOING TO,
422
A MILLION ISRAELIS GOING TO THE EMIRATES, TO DUBAI.
423
AND THIS FLIGHT WAS PART OF THAT GREAT EXCHANGE OF TOURISM AND A WARM PIECE THAT WE HAVE.
424
SO OMAN ACTUALLY, THE LATE SULTAN KABOOS INVITED ME.
425
HE WAS QUITE ILL AT THE TIME.
426
AND HE ASKED ME TO COME FOR AN OFFICIAL AND ACTUALLY PUBLIC VISIT TO.
427
to oman to muscat and we did i did i went there with my wife uh
428
but shortly after he died and i'm sure
429
that he lived what bro bro oh come on man yeah
430
his dying wish was um we would like to sign the
431
abraham accord he whispered in my ear he said em israel
432
hi bro look at him look at the way he's like sneaking that line in there.
433
Like, look at his face while he's saying like, oh yeah, he died shortly after, but he told me.
434
We would have had another partner in the Abraham Accords.
435
The new regime is a standoffer, so I can't say anything about them as yet.
436
As far as the pilot who was stabbed, how is he doing now?
437
And where were the stab wounds?
438
How critical is he?
439
He was stabbed in the head uh
440
and his arm was basically split in two
441
and there was a lot of blood uh the yaniv the
442
plumber as you call him uh was covered in his blood uh i told his wife yesterday
443
when i met them at the airport you do not please
444
do not launder this this is uh this stands as a
445
uh as a testimony to the heroism of oh my god
446
dude what is going on bro please do not launder this that's we yo he is a weird guy even
447
if you said that why are you publicly revealing that you said
448
that you just come across as strange
449
because you are strange you're weirdo they got control over the situation
450
and we could be sitting today in a in a 9
451
-11 tragedy you know with bodies scattered in the in the desert
452
and they didn't
453
because of the courage of these people I think they're I think they're uh they tell the world
454
that you can't fight these terrorism this violence this madness this fanaticism they gotta take everything bro hummus falafel now 9 11.
455
like that's crazy oh you don't understand it's actually organic it's
456
uh this is israeli uh this is israel grown 9 11
457
then with ordinary people pitching in mr prime minister this is not new to you
458
because you were on the raid in entebbe you were just
459
your dad excuse me your brother was no he wasn't at
460
the raid in entebbe his brother was his brother died at the raid of entebbe was killed
461
and you were shot 50 years ago did this give no
462
he wasn't wait am i crazy no he was not he was not do you brian kill me just made
463
that up no yoni his brother was killed during the raid in entebbe benjamin enya was not on
464
that mission because israel has a policy of not allowing two siblings to operate on the same mission
465
because they don't want like the bloodline to go away they
466
don't want the bloodline to perish i don't even know
467
if he was special forces at that point no i don't think benjamin
468
and i was going to correct him
469
because he loves this kind of shit he loves stolen valor view flashbacks yeah my actually i wasn't underrated
470
and tabby i was already a civilian
471
but my brother who headed uh he did correct it never special forces team
472
that i served in uh led the rescue party
473
that rescued 103 israeli hostages from a palestinian
474
and german terrorists in the heart of africa and uganda uh
475
and he was the sole military casualty he died
476
while leading these men right at the terrace have you spoken
477
to prime minister netanyahu yet about the incident on the flight
478
dubai yes what do you think the pilot was trying to
479
do i think it's an incredible story it seems i mean i can relate the story
480
but you're better off getting it from him
481
but by this time i guess they have a lot of fake stories out there
482
and you know you never know what's happening
483
but i did speak to bb netanyahu at length about this event
484
and it seems as though the co -pilot was perhaps a terrorist
485
or perhaps a wet job
486
and he stabbed the pilot the pilot was in very bad shape
487
and i guess he still is in very bad shape he was able to fall back
488
and get the door open and scream
489
and a plumber an israeli plumber never flew a plane was rarely in planes very rarely flew
490
and israel very rarely in planes you know very rarely in planes
491
actually doesn't know first time he's seen the miracle of flight
492
thought it was an affront to god believe it they sedated him his family his family sedated him
493
he thought he was inside of a tin can he thought
494
he was in just a regular car never been in a plane before thought it was a vehicle and
495
when he woke up they said we're on the sea we're
496
on the ocean he looked at the clouds he thought it
497
was the ocean from the standpoint of planes he'd never seen one plumber saw what was happening
498
and strong you know when you lift pipe all day you're strong
499
and he saw what was going on and he heard the screaming
500
and he ripped with the g -forces as they were he
501
ripped this guy out of the seat threw him back the crowd got him the passengers got him
502
grabbed him and having never flown apart a plane he took the stick lifted it up
503
and leveled out the plane before it crashed now this is the story
504
that i heard i don't know if it's true
505
but that's the story that i got from bb and
506
when i asked why he did that he said he watches
507
that show air disasters you know the show it's
508
that craziest show i never want to watch it
509
but he said he watches it a lot
510

511

Why Practice Speaking with This Video?
This video’s conversational tone and mix of casual and analytical language make it ideal for practicing real-world English. The speaker uses natural pauses, rhetorical questions, and opinion-based statements—common in daily discussions. Practicing with it helps you learn to express doubt ("this part seems impossible"), present conflicting ideas ("I’m going to cover both sides"), and connect events logically ("given the fact that"). Use a shadowing app to mimic the rhythm and emphasis, which builds confidence in spontaneous speaking.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
- "the idea that this plane was dropping...": The "that-clause" after "idea" is key for explaining thoughts. Practice: "The thought that she might be late worried me."
- "there are certain elements of this story that are not implausible": Double negatives like "not implausible" soften statements. Use this to avoid absolute claims: "The plan is not impractical."
- "given the fact that Benjamin Netanyahu had visited...": "Given the fact that" introduces context. Replace with "since" for formality, but keep the phrase for fluency: "Given the fact that it’s raining, we’ll stay in."
Common Pronunciation Traps
Watch for tricky words like "allegedly" (uh-LEJ-uhd-lee) and "apprehend" (ap-ri-HEND)—stress the second syllable. The speaker’s casual pace may blur "gonna" (going to) and "wanna" (want to); use a shadowing site to slow down and mimic these contractions. Also, note the rising intonation in questions like "sorry, red flag on the play?" to sound natural. Improve English pronunciation by repeating these phrases until they flow smoothly.
Learning English with videos like this bridges classroom skills and real communication. Use shadowspeaks techniques—repeat lines immediately after the speaker—to master timing and tone. With consistent practice, you’ll handle complex conversations with ease.
Grammar in this video
The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:
| Structure | In the video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — a past action that still matters now | I've talked · have said · have been |
| Passive voice be + past participle — the focus is on what happens, not who does it | was not broken · is related · been measured |
| Relative clauses who / which + clause — extra information about a person or thing | guy who is · one who saved |
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
