Hamas and Jewish Extremism: A Debate Over Accountability

A Gazan activist just called for the end of Hamas, and the backlash from the Western Left reveals a much bigger problem. In this episode of "The Quad", Emily Schrader and the panel unpack the firestorm surrounding Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib’s New York Times op-ed, asking why some Western activists refuse to listen when Palestinians themselves condemn Hamas. Then the debate turns inward as U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee labels violent Israeli extremists “terrorists”: Is he right, is the comparison with Palestinian terrorism dangerously misleading and does Israel need to confront its own extremists more aggressively? Plus, the panel takes aim at Macklemore, Ed Miliband and more in this week’s Scumbags and Heroes!
