You asked if he was trying to defend Netanyahu.
I literally quoted him calling Netanyahu a war criminal. At the beginning of the interview you apparently didn't read.
And now you're doubling down on it? Really?
To get pedantic, which seems fair considering the context of the exchange, he never said "Netanyahu is a war criminal" he simply said "I think he is" which doesn't seem all too different from her saying "Yes ... by implication." The interviewer didn't seem to think her answer was satisfactory, but his response was pretty much equivalent to her own.
Yes, but he was not being interviewed. The thing everyone is hung up about is that Stein's answer about Putin did not match her answer on Netanyahu or Biden.
Sure, but add the other things he said.
There was also this exchange:
The real difference here is that Mehdi Hassan was saying "yes" and Jill Stein was saying "yes, but..."
Why keep raising this question? Why not focus on Putin alone? Why does Hasan need to inject Biden into this conversation?
I'm asking questions. You don't seem comfortable thinking about the answers?
Irrelevant. You asked if he was trying to defend Netanyahu and he literally called him a war criminal at the top.
If you had read the interview, you would have known that. So either you didn't read it or you were being dishonest.
That's what Mehdi Hasan is asserting, which is weird when you consider how Netanyahu and Putin are allies.
Why keep putting up this defense of Netanyahu if you're so focused on getting Jill to denounce Putin? Why does Israel become this backdoor by which you can tacitly trade weapons and fossil fuels internationally?
Have you read the interview? You don't seem to want to acknowledge anything Hasan has actually said.
its not weird at all? he's saying their both war criminals because they are. youre whose saying he's defending netenyahu when theres nothing here to support that, which is what everyone else is saying
You:
Hasan:
This can't be clearer. Just stop.
