‘They can’t defend October 7’: Alex Stein visits pro-Palestinian protesters

Comedian Alex Stein speaks about his latest visit to a pro-Palestinian rally where he was ignored by protesters until he brought up October 7.

“Nobody spoke with me and then you brought up October 7, that’s when people started pouring water on me, going crazy, because they can’t defend what happened on October 7," Mr Stein told Sky News host Rita Panahi.

“So it’s just a sad, sad scene.

“A lot of the college protests, since it’s May and the universities are about to let out for summer – I think the college protests will die down.

“It’s not going to stop but I think it will be limited, very shortly, from the colleges, in my opinion,”

It's very unkind to ask Palestinian supporters questions. They are not very smart

[elmalo]

It's disgusting how low people are willing to cheapen their morals.

It often happens that when you don't know why you are doing something you can't explain it.

Ah the left-wing silent treatment, I've had that. Don't these people know that silence is violence?

Casting my mind back, 40 to 50 years, I recall that hating Israel and supporting the PLO was a right of passage for poor little rich kids, desperately wanting to give their pathetic lives some meaning. Looks like things haven't changed.

They can't defend it and yet they do.

Ignorance knows no borders. Where will all these unemployble go to find work, who would take them on to cause dissent and destruction in the work place?

[timandjacquinicklin]

They don't know why they are protesting

Questions to students - When were hostages taken by Hamas? Answer, October 7th 2023. If hostages are not released, why would you expect Israel to satisfy your "demands"? Answer, you shouldn't. 🙂

[johnmancini]

Says it all. Nothing to say because they are clueless individuals who just want attention.

[badukalyptus]

Aren't the keffiyehs cultural appropriation?

Happy seventh! Celebrating with bacon cheesburger pizza today

[marcoli]

How about try to wait for an answer and record it instead of cutting them to create a fake story?

How about try journalism?

[JsckSzx]

Its as if sky works directly for israel lobby

[kah]

Ask them if their flag would make a good bath mat! 🩴🇵🇸🩴

[jacquesdurand]

The problem is: in the eyes of the whole world, regardless of what happened on Oct 7th (on which I heard rather troubling reports), NOTHING can justify the ongoing massacre of civilians in Gaza.

Yet the dews have defended, the murder, of Christ. By simply blaming others.

3x human rights observer in WBank 02, 03 & 05.... BEFORE Hamas.... whats ur excuse for church of Nativity's bellringer being unalived in 2002 ... as IDF started the altar on fire. Claiming Terrorists inside yet that was lies (my training partner #LatryHales & others snick in with food) so I KNOW firsthand.
