Bill Maher Rebukes ‘Keffiyeh-Wearing’ Student Protesters Over Silence After Reports of Hamas Killings

The HBO host pointed to reports of Palestinians killed by Hamas in Gaza, drawing on-air agreement from Mark Cuban.

Overview

  • During Friday’s Real Time, Maher asked where campus activists went and said those who once led loud demonstrations are now “very quiet.”
  • Guest Mark Cuban agreed with Maher’s characterization, replying that Hamas is “shooting everybody.”
  • Footage circulating online allegedly shows Hamas fighters executing Palestinians in Gaza City’s main square, and Reuters reported at least 33 people killed after a truce.
  • President Donald Trump condemned the footage on Thursday and warned on Truth Social that if the killings continue, “we will have no choice but to go in and kill them.”
  • The exchange follows months of student-led anti-Israel protests marked by clashes and arrests, as federal probes and calls for revoking visas of foreign students who support Hamas continue.
