Bill Maher just delivered the most clear-eyed, no-bullshit monologue on Israel & antisemitism you’ll hear from any mainstream voice in 2026.
“Israel was founded on the idea that antisemitism made a Jewish state necessary ... Can you honestly listen to this rhetoric and not see why that turned out to be true?”
One of many brutal examples: he called out Columbia professor Hamid Dabashi, who wrote that Jews have “a vulgarity of character that is bone-deep and structural to the skeletal vertebrae of its culture.”
Maher’s reply: “These are the kinds of statements Goebbels would have read and said, ‘No notes.’”
Then he turned to his own party and delivered the kill shot:
“Democrats, where are you? … Until you fix this issue, stop asking me why I’m harder on you.”
Bill Maher is perhaps the one person left in late-night television who still chooses truth over applause.
The rest are just cowards with good lighting.
Thank you Bill🙏
