The guy opposing her in the debate is certifiable, doubling down on the 'there is no such thing as Palestine' trope ("well there was no such thing as Israel until 1948 either, gobshite" - another missed open goal), and she handles Morgan's 'it all began with Oct 7th' and 'Israel's just responding to an act of war' BS pretty well. I hadn't heard of the Mosab Hasan Yousef guy, apparently a turncoat Palestinian who went and worked for Israeli intelligence, but I think he thoroughly discredited himself in this interview. At one point he mystifyingly says that Martin isn't 'qualified to be a mother' - wtf?? Otherwise just ranting hateful bile.
I don't know if Piers Morgan deserves credit for providing a mainstream-ish platform for leftist dissidents like this, or if the continuous attempts to sabotage, ad hom smear, or provide psychotic sparring partners for the clickbait, is on the whole counterproductive.
cheers/jeers,
