Bill Maher, a prominent comedian and political commentator, has publicly defended the actions of Israel during the ongoing Gaza conflict while on the popular daytime talk show 'The View.' His comments sparked a heated debate with the show's co-hosts, who voiced strong criticisms of Israel's military response.
Bill Maher, host of the long-running political talk show 'Real Time,' ignited a fierce debate on 'The View' when he voiced his support for Israel's actions in the conflict with Gaza. Maher argued that Israel had the right to defend itself against Hamas rocket attacks, while the show's co-hosts, including liberal firebrand Joy Behar, vehemently condemned Israel's military response.

Behar accused Israel of engaging in "war crimes" and targeting civilians, while Maher countered that Hamas, the militant group controlling Gaza, was intentionally using civilians as human shields. The exchange grew increasingly heated, with Maher claiming that Behar was "ignorant" and "repeating talking points" that were hostile to Israel.
Maher's support for Israel is a departure from the views of many liberals in the United States, including Behar. He has previously expressed support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, which aims to pressure the Israeli government to change its policies towards the Palestinians. However, he has also been critical of Hamas, which he has described as a "terrorist organization."

The debate on 'The View' highlights the deep divisions within the American public regarding the conflict between Israel and Palestine. While Maher's comments may resonate with some viewers who support Israel's right to defend itself, they are likely to be met with strong opposition from those who condemn Israel's use of force and its treatment of Palestinians.
The conflict in Gaza has sparked widespread protests and international condemnation, with many calling for a ceasefire and a diplomatic solution. The United Nations has warned of a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where over 200 people have been killed, including dozens of children.

As the debate continues, both sides will likely continue to voice their opposing views, with no easy resolution in sight. The conflict between Israel and Palestine remains a complex and divisive issue that has yet to find a lasting solution.
