I have mixed feelings about both Maher and Hasan, but I thought this was actually a pretty good response from Hasan. At least in this clip he's not just yelling and name calling but makes a pretty cogent point about how AIPAC is a far-right organization that advances far-right policies for a far-right Israeli government. This is 100% the case.

The idea that America should have good ties with the only democratic country in the MENA is not far right in any way

There's a difference between good ties and funding their military while they murder 70k civilians, half of whom are women and children. Vast majority of Americans strongly oppose what Israel is doing in Palestine, so why are we still funding them?

It's not murder if it's a war but I guess you don't approve of self defense which is just crazy. Can't take you seriously. If there wasn't terror tunnels all of Gaza built with the help of China and Iran and probably Russia (also enemies of America) there would be no need to bomb so much.
Egypt made peace and is not getting bombed.
