John Stewart blows up Israel’s current policy on Gaza on Monday with “The Daily Show,” calling its actions “self-revealed inhumane and horrifying.”
At Peter Beinart, editor of “Jewish Currents,” Stewart reflected on how he was accused of being “bad Jewish” by other Jews. Continuous conflict in Gaza.
Stewart said that Jews often think of themselves as weak, but “What happens when David becomes Goliath?”
He claimed pro-Israel commentators were “deliberate hunger” for denying the conflict was genocide.

“I feel like I’m a crazy person. I feel like I’m looking at something very self-evident, inhuman and terrifying,” he added.
Stewart argued that the ongoing conflict is not only moral hazard, but also dangerous to the existence of Israel itself.
“And will you say I have to shut up because I am calling out and putting the Jewish state at risk? I will say the opposite,” he said. “I think they put the potential of a surviving Jewish nation at greater risk with this type of action.”
“If they want to define anti-Semiticism, then they probably have to bomb themselves if they want to define Netanyahu with that definition of anti-Semiticism,” he added.
Beinart argued on his side that the Palestinians “behaved like Gandhi” by taking part in a “overwhelmingly non-violent” march in Gaza seven years ago, and that the US supports Israel’s closing peaceful protests.
“When they do non-violent boycotts, we criminalize boycotts. When they go to the International Criminal Court, we sanction the International Criminal Court,” he added, referring to the anti-Israel boycotts, sale and sanctions (BDS) movement and President Donald. Trump’s sanctions on the ICC To issue a warrant for Netanyahu.

Beinart appeared to hint at Hamas’ October 7th terrorist attack.
“We essentially send a message to Palestinians that non-violent protest, ethical protest resistance will not work. It’s about facilitating the crime Hamas committed on October 7th,” he said.
