Bill Maher: When Hamas Fires on Israel It’s a War, When Israel Fires Back It’s a War Crime

‘There’s a big difference between collateral damage and what Hamas did’
By Grabien Staff

TRANSCRIPT:

MAHER: "I must say, I am struggling with people's moral equivalency still. I mean, Barack Obama, who has rarely disappointed me, did so this week. I mean, 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 to give you 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.  Secondly, okay, the Israelis are now on a 4-hour pause for people to get out, and I'm sure people say, 'Oh, how big of them.' Okay, but it is a war that the other side started. It's so interesting, when they fire at Israel, it's a war. When Israel fires back, it's a war crime. A little crazy."
