Bassem Youssef might now be known for that viral Piers Morgan interview, but he's been famous for a long, long time. Michelle Elias sat down with him to chat about how he got exiled from Egypt, lying to his mum about performing in a protest, and that viral Piers Morgan interview.

Humanity for one side is not humanity. The same counts for you. You guys didn't even care about this war, you just want to be cool for the most people. If media chew something, you automatically swallow it and buy the idea. Now, let's question people here if They know hezbollah and hamas is looking for Jews in my country to kill. Of course, you won't know, because media didn't chew anything for your low IQ brain. Asking for people like you to think is too hard. To understand that a war is war...Woahhh is almost impossible. Don't forget for these people, who don't convert will be killed in their “apocalypse”. It would never be so easy to manipulate people like I see on internet today.

Many Arabs and other Middle Easters are white also. And they've colonized the world also. The Persians did it, the Phoenicians did it. And so did non-whites, like the Peninsular Arabs. So there is no "you colonized the world." That's a trite, mythic narrative that deserves to be busted.

Bassem Youssef, what a fucken legend. Seriously this dude just exudes charm and charisma for days and he's able to cut through the typical media biasies forced narrative by channeling his fierce intellect into pointed and cutting satirical humor which can completely dismantle his opponents arguments by highlighting how absurd or ridiculous that belief is when taken to its extreme or often just the logical conclusion. He's an absolute f'n G.

But his words "bring your WHITE friends" is a bit weird. Funny how it's sometimes ignored that many "ARABS" are actually white. This includes first and foremost, LEBANESE people (who are Phoenician Canaanites, a Caucasian population). And some Palestinians and Syrians, who hail from the same people. Similarly, it includes the Berbers of North Africa, who are as white as the day is long. And some non-Berber Tunisians and Algerians as well.

He's an amazingly powerful voice and the humour makes all the difference. His two interviews with Piers Morgan alone shifted my thinking on the war, even though I've spent half of the last 6 weeks educating myself on Israel and the Palestinians.

I've known about this man since his appearances on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Jon, a man with good taste, who recognizes brilliance in other comedians. Egypt was ridiculous to censor this man. Anyone who doesn't listen to him is afraid of being told something true in a funny and ingenious manner. I'm not afraid of ugly realities, and he presents them in such a way that you laugh at both the immorality and absurdity of it all. And then seek to change the world for the better.

Mr Basseem is a wonderful human being. I watched both of his interviews glued to the screen and I was amazed at how charismatic and determined he was. He never backed down but he did so with decency, humour and humanity. I think Piers must have understood one thing or two through the process as he changed his approach in Part 2.

What an incredible, under rated art-form comedy is- the most effective way to examine the world, broach difficult, painful subject matter in a way that pierces through our defenses. Seems the very best comedians, comedy are born out of struggle and tragedy. No bitterness or hate- just matter of fact, straightforward, intelligent, consistent, fair- dare I say courageous questioning. He has prompted me to do some self examination- questioning of my own biases and misconceptions. How valuable is that to anyone who yearns to be better?!
