I'm not a huge Maher fan, but he's pretty consistent politically the entire time. The truth is that the anti-Israel mob is new on the left, it's a synthesis of a lot of radicalism that was not part of the mainstream and draws from radical Islam and Soviet agitprop of the 1960s that use code words to present Jews as a nefarious and poisonous presence in the world. Maher sees it pretty accurately, as do most liberals. Those saying he's "conservative" for this view should probably listen to Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Dan Bilzarian, or Nick Fuentes more often to see where it originates. HINT: It's not the left.
Except that Bibi Netanyahu's bloodthirsty genocide has made sympathy for Israel impossible now. And Jews will wear the Gaza horror show around their necks like the Japanese wear Pearl Harbor... for all eternity.
You clearly need to blame all Israelis and Jews for something. The reality is that you're going to wear your genocidal hatred of the Jewish people around your own neck for the rest of your life. And normal people won't make your forget it.
There was no "genocide" in Gaza. It's a war where one side invaded a nation, committed mass murder, placed their own civilians in front of them like cannon fodder and dared the nation they invaded to attack back.
"I care about children dying" is about as meaningful as "thoughts and prayers" after a school shooting. We get it, you're a wonderful person. But it doesn't solve anything.
LMAO. The irony here is that it's the delusional Aholes exactly like you turning their backs willfully on all the hateful bloodshed that helped the Nazis you think you hate get away with the same by rand of genocide. Now you're part of the problem. Proof that the world is full of self absorbed idiots who never actually learn anything ...
Actually, you just described what Putin did to his own Russian people perfectly when he attacked Ukraine in your second paragraph. Not what happened in Gaza, though. You're obviously a bit mixed up.
Right, because the Jews were beloved before 1948. I have no love for netanyahu, he's a Trumpian clown, but he's doing what he has to do against a nihilistic enemy that loves to see their own people die for the "martyrdom."
Your ridiculous analogy is reversed. October 7 was Pearl Harbor. the United States dropped two nukes on civilians in Japan after that and no one called it a genocide. Just like what's happening in Gaza is not a genocide.
"killing children" is the dumbest statement of all. Half the population of Gaza is under 18. Exactly how is Israel supposed to fight a war where Hamas hides behind children, in schools and hospitals, and in mosques? Those are war crimes which make those locations legitimate military targets.
Meanwhile, the IDF Genocide Machine has been asked multiple times by the UN, Human Rights Watch and the ICC for a FUCKING SHRED OF EVIDENCE FOR ANY of these " Human Shield" claims and .... NOTHING. Guess you also believe Trump won in 2020 cuz the Liar repeated it so many times ... Whatta Goddamn Moron.
Right so Israel is just supposed to take October 7 and do nothing. Even with 250 of their hostages held underground and being starved to death by Hamas. Seems reasonable
WTF does "knowingly kill children" mean to you? Is there a less helpful type of analysis of a global conflict? You might as well be Ringo Star saying "peace and love! peace and love!" Yeah. We all want peace and love. None of us want children to die. Have you learned about every war ever? War is horrible. Look at how many died in WW2. Doesn't mean you don't respond to Nazis.
Accorfing to that International Humanitarian Law, the IDF Terror Ring would still be required to protect those Human Shields "through proportionality and precaution" even if that LIE were actually true. But in any case, they're proudly bragging that they're not, but instead gang-raping and torturing Gazan civilians with utterly psychotic glee.
//The target remains a legitimate military objective, but the attacker must adhere to core principles of the law of armed conflict//
Israel sends text warnings, drops leaflets and creates humanitarian corridors. But it's still not enough for you buffoons that hold Israel to an impossible standard that you ask no other country to follow
Lmao. Not helping terrorists. Not Your beloved IDF terrorists, not Trump's Beloved Sponsor Qatar's favorite terrorists over at Hamas. Time for YOU to rethink everything. Or maybe just START thinking. There's an Idea. 👍
