Piers Morgan Uncensored invites IDF Colonel Peter Lerner onto the show for a raw debate on the legitimacy of Israel’s war in Gaza. Piers Morgan presses Colonel Lerner on the moral justification for the feared invasion of Rafah, to which he responds that Israel cannot simply roll over for Hamas. However, Colonel Lerner does finally concede that ‘we made mistakes’ and ‘we have to do better’.
Piers then throws it over to Mehdi Hasan who in typical style, does not hold back. Hasan boldly claims that there are fascists and racists in Israel’s government.
