TV talk show host Bill Maher addressed the recent silence of campus protesters over Gaza during Friday night’s episode of HBO’s *Real Time with Bill Maher*. Pressing the issue, he asked, “Where are the protesters? Suddenly, the keffiyeh-wearing college kids are very quiet.”
Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, appearing on the panel, responded, “Can’t be found. Yeah, can’t be found anywhere.”
Maher went on to highlight the violence perpetrated by Hamas, stating that the group is “shooting everybody,” and calling out what he described as “the asymmetry of what goes on.”
He criticized pro-Palestinian activists who, in his view, ignore Hamas’s atrocities. Maher has repeatedly condemned American activists whom he sees as excusing or overlooking Hamas abuses while focusing their criticism primarily on Israel.
In May, he similarly challenged US liberals who expressed support for Hamas despite the group’s extremist ideology. Friday’s remarks extended that critique to student protest movements that were highly visible during the previous academic year.
