Dave Rubin just dropped a blunt DM clip that will make any fair-minded American wince at the media’s dishonesty. In the short video he shares, Scott Galloway calmly lays out the hard facts about the October 7 attacks and Israel’s response while “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski visibly lose their cool.
Galloway doesn’t pander to outrage — he points out the historical context and the scale of the Hamas massacre, and compares how democracies have reacted when civilians are slaughtered, arguing there’s a clear difference between righteous self-defense and the caricature the left wants you to believe. His point that the denominator matters and that comparisons to other wars change the moral calculus was delivered with the clarity MSNBC refuses to show.
Instead of grappling with those facts, Scarborough and Brzezinski resorted to theatrics and emotionalism, trying to drown out reason with chest-thumping moral superiority. That’s not journalism — it’s performance art for the perpetually offended, and Rubin’s clip exposes how easily cable anchors pivot from “serious news” to sanctimony when inconvenient truths arrive.
Let’s be plain: October 7, 2023, was a savage, coordinated assault that butchered civilians and dragged hostages into tunnels — a level of barbarity that demands a firm response from any sovereign nation. Americans who remember 9/11 understand the duty of a nation to defend its citizens; the facts of that day are not partisan talking points, they are the brutal reality that set this war in motion.
Yet the same institutions lecturing Israel about “proportionality” were silent or charitable when democracies responded to mass slaughter elsewhere, proving once again that moral outrage from the left is applied with ideological, not ethical, consistency. International bodies and pundits rushed to label Israel’s countermeasures “disproportionate,” but too often they ignore Hamas’s intentional use of civilian areas and terror tactics that make a clean military response almost impossible.
Conservative Americans should not apologize for defending an ally that faces genocidal enemies and for questioning media narratives that collapse into performative pity while excusing terror. We owe Israel our honesty and our support, and we deserve a mainstream press that reports facts rather than manufactures narratives to fit a political agenda.
If nothing else, Rubin’s clip is a reminder that calm, fact-based argument still cuts through the noise — and that when patriots speak plainly about terrorism and self-defense, we should listen. The next time a cable host tries to gaslight the country with sanctimony, let them be met with the kind of steady, unapologetic truth Scott Galloway and Dave Rubin delivered.
