Bill Maher Calls Out Obama's 'Moral Equivalency' On Israel And Hamas, Says He's 'Disappointed'

We've covered Bill Maher in the past, because he's one of the very few on the Left who is honest and consistent in his stances. No, we don't agree with him on everything (and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who agrees with anyone on everything). But when he's right, he's right. And it's glorious to behold. Bill Maher slams Obama’s ‘moral equivalency’ on Israel-Hamas. The New York Post writes: ““Real Time” host Bill Maher on Friday took a moment to knock former President Obama for comments he made this week about the Israel-Hamas war, saying he was “disappointed” at the prominent Democrat. During a discussion with Pod Save America, the 44th president insisted “all of us are complicit” for the escalated violence that has erupted in the Middle East following the Oct. 7 attack against Israel.

“What Hamas did was horrific, and there is no justification for it. And what is also true is that the occupation, and what’s happening to Palestinians, is unbearable,” Obama said. “If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth. And then you have to admit nobody’s hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree.” On Friday, Maher accused Obama of pushing “moral equivalency” between the Jewish State and the Palestinian terrorist group.

“I must say I am struggling with people’s moral equivalency still,” Maher said during a panel discussion. “I mean, Barack Obama, who has rarely disappointed me, did so this week… His statement, I mean, it’s not a horrible statement, but he said, ‘If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth and then you have to admit nobody’s hands are clean.’ Literally, that’s true, of course. But just giving two examples where this is I don’t think a helpful statement at this moment. First of all, the attack was only a month ago. A more savage attack than we’ve ever seen in reverse. There’s a big difference between collateral damage and what Hamas did.””
