Piers Morgan<\/span> has sparked outrage after he claimed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu \u201cshouldn\u2019t be in charge of Gaza” if Hamas<\/span> is defeated.<\/p>\n The TalkTV host was sharing his views on the show Piers Morgan Uncensored when he questioned the Israeli PM’s plans to occupy Gaza after the bombing is done.<\/p>\n The comment came after Mr Netanyahu said that Israel will likely maintain \u201csecurity responsibility\u201d over the Gaza Strip for some time after its war against Hamas<\/span> ends.<\/p>\n Mr Morgan said: \u201cThis means that Netanyahu plans to occupy Gaza completely for an indefinite period. Long after bombing bloodshed is done. That to me is a massive error of judgement. Our math says more than 10,000 Palestinians are already dead since October 7.<\/p>\n \u201cA 10,000 grieving families will blame Israel and Netanyahu for destroying their lives. And as the bombing intensifies, their furious malice will surely spread, and there will be no safe or fairway for the Palestinian people to live under Israeli heel. Netanyahu must surely know this.<\/p>\n READ MORE <\/strong> Fears football hooligans to unleash chaos if Remembrance Day march is not banned<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIsrael is focused on wiping out Hamas after what they did to their people. But what happens next will change the course of history. Palestinians need new leaders who accept a Jewish state.<\/p>\n \u201cIsrael is a new leader who recognises that Palestinians too deserve a state and the same human rights as Israelis. Netanyahu has divided to rule.<\/p>\n \u201cHe propped up Hamas to split the Palestinains<\/span> with now catastrophic consequences. I don\u2019t know, frankly, who should control Gaza when or if Hamas is wiped out. But I do know it can’t be Benjamin Netanyahu.”<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> Social media users did not agree with Mr Morgan\u2019s comments and quickly questioned his views.<\/p>\n One user said: \u201cSomeone needs to educate himself @piersmorgan #PiersMorgan and by the way do you condemn Israel? Or you a dual citizen and an agent of the Zionists!\u201d<\/p>\n Another said: \u201cThe motive for defending the Jews during WW2 was humanism, just as the motive for defending the Palestinians today is humanism. People who are generally are humanists, i.e. people who also speak out against antisemitism, racism etc, are the very same people who speaks out against this genocide in Gaza.<\/p>\n \u201cUnfortunately, I see that many of those who defend Israel are people who often do not treat people equally, and are only driven by self-interest. The fact is that they are simply fighting for the supremacy of the West. These are people who do not look at the situation from a humanist perspective, but only “us against them”, and who will benefit us in an alliance.<\/p>\n
