“Are You F**king Kidding Me?” [WATCH]

Comedian and commentator Bill Maher criticized American liberals for supporting the terror group Hamas during the latest episode of his “Club Random” podcast, where he was joined by podcast host Tim Pool, as reported by Fox News.

Maher questioned how progressives who advocate for liberal values in the United States could align themselves with a group that upholds extremist Islamic ideology.

“Most Muslim societies live under some form of sharia law, which no westerner who thinks that Hamas is so great could ever live under,” Maher said during the podcast.

He expressed disbelief that liberals on college campuses and in activist circles could overlook the radical and oppressive nature of Hamas while continuing to push anti-Israel narratives.

Maher pointed out the irony in Western progressives supporting a group known for brutal treatment of women and intolerance of dissent.

“That’s what’s so ironic about liberals being so supportive of Hamas, is because you’re liberals and these are the people — I’m sorry, but this ideology, Islam, even in its more benign forms — yes, I agree, the vast majority of Muslims — not terrorists, of course. But Islamists, which is the word we use to describe people who are not terrorists, but kind of agree with the things terrorists are doing, that’s a much higher number. That’s many millions of people.”

The comments come shortly after a violent incident in Washington, D.C., where two staffers from the Israeli Embassy were murdered outside the Capital Jewish Museum.

The suspect, identified as 31-year-old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, reportedly shouted, “Free, free Palestine” as he was arrested.

Maher emphasized the disconnect between liberal ideals and Hamas’ ideology, especially when it comes to the treatment of women and free speech.

“You know, I mean all the protesters who are protesting in Gaza against Hamas? They’ve all been killed. They killed protesters, women — I mean, do I have to say anything more than just — if it was just that issue, how women are treated? Are you f**king kidding me?”

He acknowledged that his outspoken criticism of Islamic extremism has caused friction between him and the progressive left. “One of the main reasons why the far left started to really hate me is because I call out Islam as what it is, extremely illiberal,” Maher told Pool.

Earlier this month, Maher also took aim at the Democratic Party, accusing its leaders of failing to condemn the anti-Israel rhetoric within their own ranks. “If the thought leaders in the Democratic Party keep encouraging and not rebuking that America is cringe and the people who run Gaza are great, the Democrats are doomed,” he said.
