Morning Joe Lets El-Sayed Slide on Medicare for All, 'Apartheid State' Israel
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Wednesday's Morning Joe gave Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed a friendly platform, and failed to press him on the radical implications of two of his signature positions: Medicare for All, and his condemnation of Israel as an "illegal apartheid state" that is "bloodthirsty" and commits "genocide."

[snip]

El-Sayed also accused Israel of "genocide” and described its conduct under Netanyahu as “bloodthirsty,” the latter accusation having ugly echoes of antisemitic blood libels.

Politicians who oppose support for Israel often claim they’re not anti-Israel—just anti-Netanyahu. Not El-Sayed. By branding Israel an “illegal apartheid regime” that predates and outlasts Netanyahu, he made explicitly clear that he opposes the essence of Israel itself. And by declaring a two-state solution impossible, El-Sayed is rejecting the very existence of Israel as a Jewish state. His unstated goal: One state, "from the river to the sea," under Palestinian rule—an outcome that would destroy Israel as a Jewish homeland.

Joe had the day off, but the panel treated Sayed with kid gloves. Zero pushback.

Abdul El-Sayed—muslim, “Noo” Socialist, radically anti-Israel. And he looks and sounds deceptively sane! He uses his academic background (Rhodes Scholar, etc.) as a disguise.

Michiganders must vote Republican this November!

“he looks and sounds deceptively sane!”

Agreed. In purely political terms, he was a MUCH better candidate than Stevens, and yet she came within 1%.

Medicare For All is a Euphemism for "I WILL CONTROL WHAT MEDICAL CARE YOU GET"!!!

If you are a REPUBLUCAN you will get NO MEDICAL CARE.....if you are Older you will GET NO MEDICAL CARE! IF YOU ARE NOT A MUSLIM, YOU will get NO MEDICAL CARE!!!

The Demonization of Israel Ignores the Success of Israeli Arabs.
I recently visited the Jewish state and found everyday life to be more complicated than the pro-Palestinian lobby would have us believe.
Fiyaz Mughal. Aug 3, 2026.
Whatever the extremists of Hamas intended to achieve through their attack on Israel, their actions appear to have strengthened the country’s core and brought out a collective national spirit that was tangible to me as I traveled through the country.

After attending a conference in Haifa, I was struck by the changing nature of Israeli Arab employment and the growing involvement of Arab citizens in key sectors of the Israeli economy. At the University of Haifa, I was particularly struck by the number of young Israeli Arab women studying on campus. I could hear Arabic being spoken all around me.

Consider Israel’s healthcare system. One in four doctors in Israel is Arab. Just over one in four dentists is Arab, as is just over one in four nurses. Almost one in every two pharmacists in Israel is Arab. These are highly specialized professions requiring years of education, training and accreditation. Moreover, Israel has suffered thousands of casualties since the Oct. 7 attack and many of those injured were treated by Arab doctors and nurses.

The blanket term of “apartheid” in Israel against its Arab population simply does not stack up when compared to what happened in South Africa. There are social disparities - but Israeli Arabs are part and parcel of Israel’s future. That is patently obvious to any social observer.

Israel’s critics overlook the countless interactions that take place between Arab and Jewish citizens every day. They remind us that reality is far more complicated than the slogans through which Israel is so often discussed in Britain.
