John Oliver opened his latest episode of Last Week Tonight with a look at the dire famine in Gaza, which Israeli leaders and American supporters continue to deny. Oliver honed in on former Fox News host Megyn Kelly, who denied the credibility of images from Gaza of emaciated children.
“I kind of hoped we were done with Megyn Kelly as a society,” said Oliver to cheers, “and collectively, you actually don’t have to litigate this case one photo at a time. He cited reports from the United Nations, aid organizations and Israeli human rights groups all confirming the same thing: “What’s happening in Gaza right now is a famine,” he said. “All the information we have points to that, except for this fucking guy [Netanyahu] and a few adult junior detectives squinting at each photo of a skeletal child to figure out if they’re the right kind of dying.”
