Zeteo founder and former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan erupted at former Israeli Defense Forces spokesman Jonathan Conricus on Thursday, calling him a “war criminal” after Conricus told Hasan to work for Hamas.
After Hasan called the IDF “the most immoral military right now in the world that is bombing hospitals in front of our eyes,” during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Conricus responded, “Listen, Mehdi, there’s been a job opening. Israel finally got rid of Abu Obaida, a very prolific and well-to-do Hamas spokesperson.”
“Oh f*** off!” snapped Hasan, as Conricus replied, “Mind your language, small man.”
“You’re a racist, genocidal war criminal. You support war criminals. You’re trying to put a target on me?” questioned Hasan. “You keep saying I’m Hamas and you support killing Hamas, so do you want to kill me?”
Conricus said, “Little Mehdi, you’ve done that schtick with Eylon [Levy], it doesn’t impress me. If you improve your Arabic just a bit, I think you are well on track to become a very prolific spokesperson for Hamas after the demise of Abu Obaida.”
“If your argument is that any brown Muslim is Hamas, are you trying to put a target on me?” asked Hasan as the two men began to shout over each other. “You’re a war criminal, Jonathan.
He concluded, “I can condemn Hamas. You can’t condemn the genocidal Israeli military.”
