‘Are You Kidding Me?’ RFK Jr Throws Down With Krystal Ball After Calling Palestinians ‘Pampered’ While Defending Israel

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had a major throwdown with Breaking Points commentator Krystal Ball over who is responsible for the plight of Palestinians in Gaza while the war continues between Israel and Hamas.

Kennedy returned to Breaking Points for a broad-range conversation that wound up primarily gravitating around the Israel-Hamas war. He and Ball had an extended confrontation where they challenged each other over the suffering the Palestinians have endured between Hamas’ control over Gaza, the collateral damage from Israel’s counteroffensive, the civilian casualties, the blockade of vital resources, and other humanitarian complications from the conflict.

Things especially heated up as Kennedy and Ball went back and forth over the political logistics behind the war and how it’s been handled by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This led to Kennedy saying, “The Palestinian people are arguably the most pampered people by international aid organizations.”

“Are you kidding me!?” Ball exclaimed. “Even before this war, 78 percent of people in Gaza had not enough food to eat.”

“Why are you blaming Israel?” Kennedy asked, which Ball responded to by referring to the blockade on food. This led to Kennedy making the point that Hamas’ leadership got rich by stealing international aid, and he accused Ball of blaming Israel for Gaza’s state of poverty.

“They have no control over their own territory!” Ball objected. “Israel controls everything that comes in and goes out.”

“Why do you insist on blaming Israel?” Kennedy retorted. “Why not Hamas?”

“I do blame Hamas,” Ball said. “But, you know what else? Our tax dollars do not go to Hamas. They go to the Netanyahu government. It’s our bombs being dropped on the civilian population right now.”

It all kept going from there.
