What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Leeor Dahan’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Let's start. Okay. The paras begins starts off the par essentially with a choice. And the Torah tells us says that has an internal debate so to speak. What should I do with this nation speak. What should I do with this nation that I just finished taking them out of Egypt? Should I send them in the most simple obvious if you put it plugged it into ways, right? You say, "Okay, I'm in Egypt. I need to go to it's going to say okay travel by the Mediterranean and you'll arrive there in 3 days. Okay, that would have been the simplest approach. Now, it happens to be that uh there's a nation called that lives on that Mediterranean area till this very day, right? We say they're not this very day, right? We say they're not mamm they're not but they're called Palestinians and they live exactly in that same aa territory is exactly the same territory that the former lived uh 2,000 years ago. Now the pishim were actually not an Arab people. So, you know, sometimes they try to confuse and they say, "Oh, the Palestinians have been here for 2,000 years." No, no, no, no. The Palestinians are Arabs and the Arabs came from Saudi Arabia. This is a very different nation. The Pishim were very different nation. The Pishim were peshit. They were actually uh not they were actually white people. Basically, there were white people that uh came and settled that area and inhabited it and believed in a lot of pagan ideas and had these funny that are mentioned all over the in the times of in the times of but that was a nation of and the Jewish people could have crossed there really could have wiped out the team just like they did 40 years later when they essentially wiped out powerful powerful
