‘There Are No Innocent Palestinians’: Mark Levin Pushes Right Wing Oped Raging There’s No Difference Between Civilians and Terrorists in Gaza
Conservative radio personality Mark Levin shared an op-ed claiming “there are no innocent Palestinians” as the death toll continues to rise in the conflict.
Earlier this week, Townhall columnist D.W. Wilber claimed that no Palestinian is an innocent bystanders in the Israel-Hamas conflict because the terrorist group was “duly elected by the Palestinian people to serve as their government representatives.”
Recent claims from the Gaza Ministry of Health, which is controlled by Hamas, claimed more than 17,700 have died in the region with over 48,000 people injured.
The Townhall writer went on in the editorial to claim Palestinians have “forfeited” their claims of innocence because they raise their children “to hate and murder Jews.”
“First of all there are no ‘innocent Palestinians.’ When a population raises their children from the time those toddlers are wearing diapers, to hate and murder Jews they have forfeited any claim of innocence and not being responsible for the brutal acts committed on October 7th,” Wilber wrote.
Levin shared the headline bluntly on a post on X.

In the article, Wilber points out that “civilian casualties are a fact of war,” which the White House has also made a point of noting.
“Palestinians should have thought about that before they elected terrorists to govern them, who potentially could then set them up for any past Israeli military responses, and for the current Israeli response to the October 7th Palestinian terrorist attacks,” the article says.
Moreover, Wilber claimed “innocent Palestinians” know where the Israeli hostages are located, so “they can either help with their release” or “forfeit any claim of being innocent victims of Israel” — essentially arguing that there should be no exceptions to military reprisal should the hostages not be released.
Levin shared the article to his 3.8 million followers on X receiving over 1,700 likes on the post and nearly 400 reposts at the time of this article.
