The comic was referring to a wing of the MAGA motion that opposes Trump’s actions in Iran, partially due to the assumption that Israel dragged the United States into the conflict.
Maher additionally referenced the resignation of Joe Kent, the now-former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, who he accused of “listening to too much Tucker Carlson.” Kent stated in his resignation letter this week that he believes the U.S. began the conflict “due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.”
“And now the big answer is ‘Israel made us do it, we’re Israel’s bitch,’” Maher stated. “I don’t think we’re Israel’s bitch, I think we’re Israel’s ally.”
Maher beforehand stated he helps Trump’s resolution to assault Iran so long as there aren’t “boots on the ground.”
“Also, this week, war,” stated Maher throughout his March 7 present, every week after the conflict started. “Did you hear about that thing? We bombed Iran and it’s going on. Now, if you expect me to say I hate it, I don’t. Sorry! When he puts boots on the ground, yeah, then I’ll hate it. Now, I know too many happy Iranian Americans, sorry.”
