@@puffthemagiclepton7534 Saying he “supports Israel” when what he is actually doing is defending a literal genocide is pretty revealing about your morals
Bill is literally forgetting that we revised the Geneva Conventions BECAUSE of the mass killings in ww2! The entire world looked around and said “yeah we probably shouldn’t try to solve our problems that way” . That mass killings of civilians in the past is not something to be held up as a fucking example of how to act now
And his argument is wrong, we did not kill any idea in Japan. There are still far right nationalists in Japan. Most of those who committed war crimes got off Scot free. The Prime Minister who was killed a couple of years ago pushed to to re build their military. The ideas of that got them into the war in the first place are still around.
Henry Winkler is living proof that being nice doesn't mean you're dumb. Bill Maher is living proof that being mean doesn't mean you're smart. The man doesn't know the meaning of the word indiscriminate.
You mean "acting" nice. Using your celebrity to support a murderous gangster regime such as Netanyahu's... ? That precludes you from the designation of "being" nice. Also, Henry Winkler a stupid asshole... as proved by his ignorance of what he is saying in the face of what is going on in Palestine. He is just another shallow power-worshipper who believes that you can have peace while slow genocide is being perpetrated... made much worse in the face of this most recent ramping up of that policy.
Very reminiscent of 9/11... I remember almost getting my ass seriously kicked by adults for asking questions about our presence in Iraq after that when I was a literal child.. I learned a lot from that day.
I don't understand why we can't condemn both Israel and Hamas? Like are we seriously pretending like both of these ethnic groups don't despise each other? The ignorance one would need to possess to think that Israel isn't gleefully stacking up Palestinian bodies is truly insane.
@@notaspeck6104I’m perfectly capable of condemning *everyone* committing atrocities. Have been for decades. Everyone loses! Israel isn’t all innocent victims, or all villains. Neither is Palestine. The way forward is to agree that all atrocities are unacceptable, and it is *not* acceptable to respond to an atrocity with an atrocity. (But this is always the way of war; atrocities on both sides until one side incurs too great losses to continue…)
@@greasygranpapy7529 I faced some backlash, mostly from my peers, while adults just acted like I didn't understand anything and that this was "too complicated" to explain. Oh and Joseph C. Wilson was a "useful idiot" for Saddam. When it came out that Wilson was right, that the Bush administration knew it from the start and lied to the American people, those same peers and adults acted like they were against the war from the start and believed Wilson all along. Same crap happened after Nixon left office. America went from being split on him being a criminal and needed to be impeached and removed from office to miraculously unanimous agreement that he was a criminal and should've been impeached and removed. And in 10+ years after Trump passes and the right falls apart, a lot of hardcore MAGA people will pretend like they never supported him and was completely against him. While an entire decades worth of pictures and social media posts mysteriously disappears.
I had a Palestinian roommate in college who was super nice. This was back in 2011. My Jewish step grandma refused to acknowledge that I had a roommate from Palestine. She acted like she didn't exist. Bill Maher knows nothing.

Condemning Hamas would be the same as condemning the warsaw ghetto uprising, i find it hilarious that people try and distance themselves from Hamas when history will view them the same as the vietnamese liberation forces.
It would be a wild (and horrific) alternate history if Germany stopped after annexing Austria and just performed the holocaust in their own country. I doubt the world as it existed in 1939 does anything about it.

"Naziism" being dead as an idea is a wild take; we talk about it practically every day. Even if actual self professed nazis weren't marching in the streets all over the world, it's invaded our pop culture in the form of constant WWII media, we still read and write essays about it, people constantly accuse their political opponents of being similar to them
@@andbandlast even then tho there are strong fascist tendencies everywhere you look, a pres. candidate spewing lies derived from a literal neo-nazi group at a debate on national TV is just the tip of the iceberg.
Shout out to all the German Nazis that lost the war and their power but remained ideologically- committed Nazis until they died of old age. You know, huge numbers of them.
I will say it's a little unfair to argue with a man who's blood alcohol content is constantly around .1, but Winkler licked him. And that stuff about Japan as well... WTF, hes aware that many of those 'lunatics' had amnesty and went on to live free lives after the war, including the leader of Unit 731 Shirō Ishii. Unit 731, among other horrific things, tested germ warfare on civilian populations! Nobusuke Kishi, the economic manager of the slave state of Manchukuo became PM in the 50s. "We killed all the lunatics in Japan..." what a load of crap.
Not only that, Japan is certainly NOT a friend of the US, in fact when I was in Japan most admitted that they barely tolerate yanks and most hate them. Only be having US bases dotted all over Japan is the reason Japan says nothing. Not respect!
"You're like that guy who has a fantasy football team and thinks he's a GM. Why am I listening to you like you've done something?" - Bill Burr to Bill Maher
Talking about Israel's right to defend itself is like saying 'Jeffrey Epstein has a right to defend himself from 14 year old girls.' Thie statement is true, but it's a disgusting deplorable misframing of the situation to ask if the victimizer has a right to defend themselves against the people they're relentlessly victimizing.
What always suprises me is when they say but hamas are embedded in the population.well yeah of course they are...its literally 25k long..its onevof the most densely populated places on earth.
That little “Hoo!” from Winkler is solid gold. Bill Maher is so goddamn disconnected from reality, can’t even remotely discuss that literal Nazis are back, because we “have to think in long terms”. Give ‘em Hell, Henry!
Well the point that Bill leaning towards is that its ok for the IDF to kill the hostages because in the long run it will save the lives of potentially thousands more Israelis. So one minute he is criticising other people for suicide bombers and martyrdom, and then goes straight into making the case that the IDF should martyr Israeli hostages for the cause. He really is gross.
Remember when the IDF gunned down three of their own hostages, who'd escaped, and were waving a white flag? They can't even stop themselves from murdering their own, but we're supposed to believe they're "showing great restraint".
They don't target civilans ~ Bill Maher Goes on to slaughter 3 escaped Israeli hostages semi naked while holding a white flag and screaming in Hebrew. Maher is f*cking tosspot who doesn't live in reality, he looks and sounds like a drunk.
They don’t really care about the hostages. It’s never been a priority. In a recent article in Haaretz, (Israeli Newspaper) they said Netanyahu would rather they come home in body bags. Essentially, the Hannibal directive is still in place.
"Any other country" wouldn't have been criticized, Bill? So, if North Korea had attacked South Korea years ago after South Korean agents bumbingly attempted to assassinate Kim Jong Il, the international community would have been totally supportive of the North? How about Cuba had ever reliated against the US for the latter's involvement in any of 638 assassination plots against Fidel Castro between 1960 and 2000? Maybe try reading up on this stuff, Bill.
It's great seeing The Wink step up like this but it is SO hard to listen to Bill Maher talk he's so insufferable; how can someone be so wrong and yet so egotistical about it?
"In WW2, we did not kill nazism" Bill: Yeah we did 🤪 We literally did not. Fascism is still alive and well today in some cases. You're just too smooth-brained to get that, Bill. You and Sam Harris.
Out of all the dumb s**t maher said here, that's prolly the dumbe$t... Butit shows just how delusionally clueless, outta touch w reality he is. Sane ppl like the Fonz should AVOID his show like a plague.
"It's back in nearly every country" "Just, but just small groups" Yeah... that's still it being alive, Bill. If it was dead, there wouldn't even be small groups. Don't move the fucking goal posts, man.
Right "oh its on the fringes" No Bill its winning elections and forcing unnatural coalitions to keep fascists out of power in major nations. And then "Project 2025" is a straight up fascist agenda that has a real shot at forming government in the US at the next election.
Bill Maher thinks he understands and is projecting the thinking of a leader? His logic is asinine! So is he. Henry Winkler is so great as he listens to the claptrap of Maher: ahhhh...uh-huh....o-kayyyy. I like how he responds to Maher's assertion that "Well, that would be a silly argument." Winkler: "No, it wouldn't!" Maher said that anti-semitism is "just a teeny sliver" in one breath and then in the next says that it is rampant. Why do we give these turtlebrains like him a platform????
Harris’s ideas seem to be very similar to Maher’s, so of course Bill feels validated. As far as Maher goes, I can blame his being constantly high for his intellectual laziness.
I have met Mr Winkler in person and that man is so incredibly kind, generous, and smart. Bill is clearly just a massive [redacted] who deserves only [redacted] and [redacted].
I wish he would have made his voice louder when Maher said "we might have 10s of thousands of more unalived" and he said "...oh of Israelis", as if to say it's okay to unalive thousands of Palestinians if it means saving more Israelis. Like how could you use that argument arguing based on a count of lives lost and ignored the decades of loss of life on the Palestinians side
In a historical sense, antisemitism probably has its origin in the Jewish revolts against the Roman empire, which infuriated the Romans and gave the Jews a bad reputation everywhere the Romans ruled.
Bill Maher should not have his show. I don’t mean like it should be illegal. I mean he consistently says terribly disgusting harmful things, and his show should not exist in peace.
Every time I hear Henry Winkler I can't help but think that he's a lovely guy. Hearing him go tow to toe with Bill on this just underlines that for me.
In one moment, Maher says that the IDF tries not to hit civilians with bombs. The next moment, he says the bombing is indiscriminate. Which is it Bill? You can't have it both ways, as hard as you may try.
OH, I'll take a few lessons on de-escalation from the Fonz! Notice how many times he affirms his opponent with the simple word "right" as he waits for the hate to take a breath, then pounce. lol Master class. "Oh, I love Sam ..." lol
Bill has really gone downhill the last 20 years, and in the last 10, he's just lost a lot of his compass. For him to justify the continued slaughter, saying "any country would do this" is beyond disgusting.
There is also the whole “Israel commits terrorist act in two countries murdering twelve military officials and injuring thousands” issue that happened today.
Yeah they claim to be fighting terrorism while being the biggest terrorist on earth. Typical hypocrisy from people who delusionally think they are supreme
@@JudiDench-fxfx true same applies for indiginous Americans I guess. Their territory did not qualify to be a country according to European standards so they were fair game. Same for Africa I guess, their borders were only drawn thanks to European colonizers and settlers so evidence of indigeneity must be provided by European peer reviewed publications. Heck why travel to 3000 or 4000y ago when you can do much more, all life came from Africa so European had every rights to take over the land, they came from there after all, according to peer reviewed studies. King Leopold the 2nd did nothing wrong... Honestly you know you're a baffoon when you throw the word "peer reviewed" in any sentence whenever you can to sound smart but you possibly never went through peer reviewing process and never witnessed the farce that is academic peer reviewing
It’s just crazy how ahistorical Maher is about Japan. Setting aside the various strains of fascism that survived the end of the war, Japan was built back to what it is now because the US poured tons of resources into rebuilding the country and restricted its occupation mostly to Okinawa (Okinawans think very differently of the US than mainland Japan. Funny how that works out). So the actual execution of what Maher is saying is not bombing every square inch of a place they already control. It would have been pouring resources into the West Bank and Gaza after securing territory in 1967. Granting democratic rights to all the Palestinians living in their expanded borders and limiting the occupation to one or two strategic positions like the Sinai and Golan Heights. But they didn’t do that, because Bill’s comparison is ASININE.
@MarkF2962 The British gave them that land. Their god explicitly told them to stay out of it until the true Messiah (not Jesus) came to set things right. Can't have it both ways.
japan did so well because it ate the rich (took the resources of the oligarchs and re-distributed to the rest of the country). It was the reason they had such an amazing run... until the oligarchs got it all again, and now they are stuck in low growth until they do it again.
Henry Winkler might actually be cooler than the Fonz. Maher is the guy who's job is being a talking head about politics for DECADES yet Winkler has shown more critical thinking skills and actual sophistication than Maher.

@@mikeb5664Bill Maher has a callous disregard for Palestinians and an intense hatred for the American working class so…yeah, “monster” is as good a word as any.

Henry Winkler is a legit mensch. I got to meet him at a screening event several years ago, and he seemed like a kind, gentle soul. To even get him *this* riled (while still being a complete gentleman) only proves Maher's egotistical toxicity.
Henry Winkler is a humble genius

Bill Maher has lost all credibility.
"Naziism" being dead as an idea is a wild take; we talk about it practically every day. Even if actual self professed nazis weren't marching in the streets all over the world, it's invaded our pop culture in the form of constant WWII media, we still read and write essays about it, people constantly accuse their political opponents of being similar to them
Nationalism is an ideology older than its nomenclature. To claim it’s dead is ignorance or downright dishonest.
He is obviously talking about it in the sense that it is dead in the form of political power.
@@andbandlast even then tho
there are strong fascist tendencies everywhere you look, a pres. candidate spewing lies derived from a literal neo-nazi group at a debate on national TV is just the tip of the iceberg.
Also, if the nazis were so dead after ww2 where did the cia, nasa, you name it get all their employees from?
Shout out to all the German Nazis that lost the war and their power but remained ideologically- committed Nazis until they died of old age. You know, huge numbers of them.
I will say it's a little unfair to argue with a man who's blood alcohol content is constantly around .1, but Winkler licked him. And that stuff about Japan as well... WTF, hes aware that many of those 'lunatics' had amnesty and went on to live free lives after the war, including the leader of Unit 731 Shirō Ishii. Unit 731, among other horrific things, tested germ warfare on civilian populations! Nobusuke Kishi, the economic manager of the slave state of Manchukuo became PM in the 50s. "We killed all the lunatics in Japan..." what a load of crap.
Not only that, Japan is certainly NOT a friend of the US, in fact when I was in Japan most admitted that they barely tolerate yanks and most hate them. Only be having US bases dotted all over Japan is the reason Japan says nothing. Not respect!
"You're like that guy who has a fantasy football team and thinks he's a GM. Why am I listening to you like you've done something?"
- Bill Burr to Bill Maher
Talking about Israel's right to defend itself is like saying 'Jeffrey Epstein has a right to defend himself from 14 year old girls.'
Thie statement is true, but it's a disgusting deplorable misframing of the situation to ask if the victimizer has a right to defend themselves against the people they're relentlessly victimizing.
The number of people that have allowed Maher to get away with this nonsense is startling.
In the very long list of creatures Americans allowed to get away with things, this bozo ranks very low (for now)
What always suprises me is when they say but hamas are embedded in the population.well yeah of course they are...its literally 25k long..its onevof the most densely populated places on earth.
I’m so sick of one rule for Israel and the US; and another for everyone else.
💯% I've always called the country "Israeli occupied Palestine" because that is what it is. Since 1948...
That little “Hoo!” from Winkler is solid gold. Bill Maher is so goddamn disconnected from reality, can’t even remotely discuss that literal Nazis are back, because we “have to think in long terms”. Give ‘em Hell, Henry!
I can't listen to Bill Maher. I can only stomach so much stupidity
Henry Winkler is one of the nicest people you can ever met. He is a kind soul.
Maher: the IDF knows what's going on in all those tunnels.
Right, that's why they killed their own hostages under there. That wasn't a mistake? 🙎♂️
Well the point that Bill leaning towards is that its ok for the IDF to kill the hostages because in the long run it will save the lives of potentially thousands more Israelis.
So one minute he is criticising other people for suicide bombers and martyrdom, and then goes straight into making the case that the IDF should martyr Israeli hostages for the cause.
He really is gross.
Remember when the IDF gunned down three of their own hostages, who'd escaped, and were waving a white flag?
They can't even stop themselves from murdering their own, but we're supposed to believe they're "showing great restraint".
They don't target civilans ~ Bill Maher
Goes on to slaughter 3 escaped Israeli hostages semi naked while holding a white flag and screaming in Hebrew. Maher is f*cking tosspot who doesn't live in reality, he looks and sounds like a drunk.
They don’t really care about the hostages. It’s never been a priority. In a recent article in Haaretz, (Israeli Newspaper) they said Netanyahu would rather they come home in body bags. Essentially, the Hannibal directive is still in place.
@@alee3079 They are happy to martyr the hostages for the cause.
Henry Winkler, hats off to this great American.
Henry Winkler is a class act, and a national treasure. I would have been far less 'polite' when confronting Maher over his bullshit.
Henry Winkler is a humble genius 😍
"Any other country" wouldn't have been criticized, Bill? So, if North Korea had attacked South Korea years ago after South Korean agents bumbingly attempted to assassinate Kim Jong Il, the international community would have been totally supportive of the North? How about Cuba had ever reliated against the US for the latter's involvement in any of 638 assassination plots against Fidel Castro between 1960 and 2000? Maybe try reading up on this stuff, Bill.
It's great seeing The Wink step up like this but it is SO hard to listen to Bill Maher talk he's so insufferable; how can someone be so wrong and yet so egotistical about it?
Ah yes Bill, the Magical Army That Doesn't Kill Civilians but also Sherman Burned Down Atlanta This Is War.
Dunning-Krueger affect
Answer: He’s American.
@@spockmandiaexactly he's just very tetchy and sensitive to disagreement but it doesn't add up.
Ever talked to a flat earther? Getting mocked by some smug idiot calling me a "globe head" did psychic damage.
Did Bill Maher just outline the final solution? Better take care of them all now so they don't come back to get us.
Good too see Henry winkler is still such a national treasure ❤
"In WW2, we did not kill nazism"
Bill: Yeah we did 🤪
We literally did not. Fascism is still alive and well today in some cases. You're just too smooth-brained to get that, Bill. You and Sam Harris.
Bill is really just anti-arab. He hates anti-semetism from arabs, but not from white people
Out of all the dumb s**t maher said here, that's prolly the dumbe$t... Butit shows just how delusionally clueless, outta touch w reality he is.
Sane ppl like the Fonz should AVOID his show like a plague.
44% of this country is going to vote for a facist.
"It's back in nearly every country"
"Just, but just small groups"
Yeah... that's still it being alive, Bill. If it was dead, there wouldn't even be small groups. Don't move the fucking goal posts, man.
Right "oh its on the fringes" No Bill its winning elections and forcing unnatural coalitions to keep fascists out of power in major nations. And then "Project 2025" is a straight up fascist agenda that has a real shot at forming government in the US at the next election.
Bill Maher thinks he understands and is projecting the thinking of a leader? His logic is asinine! So is he.
Henry Winkler is so great as he listens to the claptrap of Maher: ahhhh...uh-huh....o-kayyyy. I like how he responds to Maher's assertion that "Well, that would be a silly argument." Winkler: "No, it wouldn't!"
Maher said that anti-semitism is "just a teeny sliver" in one breath and then in the next says that it is rampant. Why do we give these turtlebrains like him a platform????
Countering with "Well I just read Sam Harris..." has to be one of the most eye-roll inducing statements in the english language.
Eye rolls to anyone who backs Harris , Douglas Murray, Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinson. Sell outs
Harris’s ideas seem to be very similar to Maher’s, so of course Bill feels validated. As far as Maher goes, I can blame his being constantly high for his intellectual laziness.
Even the Fonz himself could not have handled Bill Maher any better than Henry did. What patience he has for dealing with Bill.
I have met Mr Winkler in person and that man is so incredibly kind, generous, and smart.
Bill is clearly just a massive [redacted] who deserves only [redacted] and [redacted].
Mad respect for Henry
More and more hatred for Bill
I’ve loved Winkler since I was a kid but he’s really cemented his legacy for me here
It’s great when childhood heroes come through
Bill Maher! Taking smugness to new levels every day!
Have you seen his interview with young teens while drinking & talkin' sexual stuff?
@@Angela-bk7yp Yeah, the guy is a creep. Same with the hawk tuah girl.
@@NamqulaI was half expecting Chris Hansen to come out and ask Bill some questions in that video.
🤣🤣🤣🤣..u,sir, are on point!!!!!.....
Milosevic acted like that and he ended up in jail and charged for genocide
I am so glad that Henry Winkler is a great human being in real life.
Henry Winkler is a god damned wonderful human.
,with god damned wonderful socks.
I wish he would have made his voice louder when Maher said "we might have 10s of thousands of more unalived" and he said "...oh of Israelis", as if to say it's okay to unalive thousands of Palestinians if it means saving more Israelis. Like how could you use that argument arguing based on a count of lives lost and ignored the decades of loss of life on the Palestinians side
Yeah that comment really deserved some more attention
Side note: he was so great in Barry.
Henry Winkler is a humble genius
The antisemitism comes from Hamas? But Hamas is a creation of the Netanyahu regime. So... where does the antisemitism come from?
Wow... these guys are really jerkin eachother off here... @13:17 I feel all dirty just watching it.
In a historical sense, antisemitism probably has its origin in the Jewish revolts against the Roman empire, which infuriated the Romans and gave the Jews a bad reputation everywhere the Romans ruled.
from the jews being disgusting and normal people not being able to help themselves, that's where it comes from.
Exactly when and how Netanyahu regime created Hamas? Dates and sources, please
Im white, from america. Totally anti jew. Hamas has never even sent me a brochure
Maher has turned into just an old crank. He's hardly even funny any more. Winkler destroys.him
the only time he's been funny is when you can point at him and laugh.
Maher’s raging alcoholism has made him more worse than ever…
So thanks to Bill Meyer I now believe two wrongs DO make a right!
Bill Maher should not have his show. I don’t mean like it should be illegal. I mean he consistently says terribly disgusting harmful things, and his show should not exist in peace.
same should be said for america at large.
@@Seigensi agreed. I would argue that bill maher exists in a much more peaceful bubble than the US
"jews used to know this". Did he try to tell Henry Winkler hes not jewish enough? Dafuq is wrong this man?
Love and respect for Mr. Henry Winkler.
Every time I hear Henry Winkler I can't help but think that he's a lovely guy. Hearing him go tow to toe with Bill on this just underlines that for me.
One successful way to destroy an Idea is to have Bill Maher opine about it.
Riffing on Nietzsche, lol
Maher hasn’t let Winkler finish a single sentence. Is he turning into Piers Morgan?
You are Insulting Morgan.
@@seanfagan8490 good, he is a twat.
@@seanfagan8490 The British refer to Mr Morgan as "That tosser". I assume he got famous by making pancakes.
I hate piers but Maher is far worse.
his masters don't appreciate such ideas being spoken uninterrupted. Even Israelis don't suck up to Natenyahu this hard
In one moment, Maher says that the IDF tries not to hit civilians with bombs. The next moment, he says the bombing is indiscriminate. Which is it Bill? You can't have it both ways, as hard as you may try.
They've been getting it both ways for as long as i exist.
The very definition of irony-a nazi claiming we eradicated Nazism in WW2
OH, I'll take a few lessons on de-escalation from the Fonz! Notice how many times he affirms his opponent with the simple word "right" as he waits for the hate to take a breath, then pounce. lol Master class. "Oh, I love Sam ..." lol
Henry Winkler was awesome on Barry and he was awesome here. Nothing but respect for my GOAT
Bill has really gone downhill the last 20 years, and in the last 10, he's just lost a lot of his compass. For him to justify the continued slaughter, saying "any country would do this" is beyond disgusting.
There is also the whole “Israel commits terrorist act in two countries murdering twelve military officials and injuring thousands” issue that happened today.
Yeah they claim to be fighting terrorism while being the biggest terrorist on earth. Typical hypocrisy from people who delusionally think they are supreme
God I hate Bill Mayer
He's smart .. for a pig.😅
I never realized Maher could be this obtuse.
We did not kill the Nazis. Hilariously ahistorical.
why is it not the other way around which is stop occupying Palestine because this has been going since 1948 over and over and never ended
Palestinians need their country back!!!!
Or at least to be treated equally under a secular constitution.
🧐 When was their Philistinian country established? 4,300 years ago? 5,700? 6,200? I can’t find evidence from any peer-reviewed academic study.
@@JudiDench-fxfx true same applies for indiginous Americans I guess. Their territory did not qualify to be a country according to European standards so they were fair game. Same for Africa I guess, their borders were only drawn thanks to European colonizers and settlers so evidence of indigeneity must be provided by European peer reviewed publications. Heck why travel to 3000 or 4000y ago when you can do much more, all life came from Africa so European had every rights to take over the land, they came from there after all, according to peer reviewed studies. King Leopold the 2nd did nothing wrong... Honestly you know you're a baffoon when you throw the word "peer reviewed" in any sentence whenever you can to sound smart but you possibly never went through peer reviewing process and never witnessed the farce that is academic peer reviewing
It’s just crazy how ahistorical Maher is about Japan. Setting aside the various strains of fascism that survived the end of the war, Japan was built back to what it is now because the US poured tons of resources into rebuilding the country and restricted its occupation mostly to Okinawa (Okinawans think very differently of the US than mainland Japan. Funny how that works out).
So the actual execution of what Maher is saying is not bombing every square inch of a place they already control. It would have been pouring resources into the West Bank and Gaza after securing territory in 1967. Granting democratic rights to all the Palestinians living in their expanded borders and limiting the occupation to one or two strategic positions like the Sinai and Golan Heights.
But they didn’t do that, because Bill’s comparison is ASININE.
Why would Israel give up their God given land?
@@MarkF2962Why would any woman on earth ever acknowledge your existence?
@MarkF2962
The British gave them that land. Their god explicitly told them to stay out of it until the true Messiah (not Jesus) came to set things right.
Can't have it both ways.
japan did so well because it ate the rich (took the resources of the oligarchs and re-distributed to the rest of the country). It was the reason they had such an amazing run... until the oligarchs got it all again, and now they are stuck in low growth until they do it again.
@@MarkF2962😂
Bill is so full of his own _____ he can’t think.
Sam, you’re the Man! Thank you for calling out the BS.
Love Henry Winkler. Glad to see he’s still in good health and sharp as a tac. One of the good guys.
Netanyahu doesn’t care about anti semitism. If he did his son wouldn’t be an anti semite.
Henry Winkler might actually be cooler than the Fonz. Maher is the guy who's job is being a talking head about politics for DECADES yet Winkler has shown more critical thinking skills and actual sophistication than Maher.
Thank you Henry Winkler, and thanks to The Majority Report.😮
Remember when Bill Burr asked Bill Maher, 'What the hell have YOU ever done in Washington'? And yet, here's Bill Maher again acting like he's been a general in a war zone.

I think he gave the buffoon the time and space to speak his mind, to spill out all his bile, so that his ignorant rant could be affirmed to the world for posterity. Sort of like Kamala staying quiet during Trump's most insane ranting spells. You let the fool, even encourage him, to bury himself.

Its the lip smacking I can't get past.
I don't think the smugness has gotten worse, he's just wrong on more issues than before, when he made good points in the past the smugness was kind of enjoyable.
