American television host Bill Maher speaks out in favor of Israel’s right to declare its own capital and condemns Palestinian hostility as the real barrier to peace.
Bill Maher praised U.S. President Donald Trump’s December 2017 decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital on a recent episode of his TV show “Real Time with Bill Maher.”
Maher discussed Jerusalem, saying, “I hate to agree with Donald Trump, but it doesn’t happen often, but I do. I don’t know why Israel – it has been their capital since 1949, it is where their government is. They’ve won all the wars thrown against them. I don’t understand why they don’t get to have their capital where they want.”
Maher then also continued to blast the Palestinians for being “perpetually hostile, a coiled snake,” thereby preventing peace in the region.
