Liars and hypocrites
"No declared nuclear powers" is not the answer Piers Morgan is looking for. In the excerpt shared by Hawk's Podcasts / mdg650hawk, Morgan asks whether Israel is the Middle East's only nuclear power. Panelist Blaise Misztal answers with that narrower distinction, and Morgan keeps pressing.
Hawk's reaction Short, titled "Liars and hypocrites", reached about 600,000 views in its first day, compared with roughly 35,000 for a usual Short on the channel. It presents an excerpt from Piers Morgan Uncensored, with Hawk standing in front of the footage and pointing toward the exchange.
Misztal, identified as policy vice president at the Jewish Institute for National Security of America, says he does not know whether Israel possesses nuclear weapons. Morgan rejects that answer, asserting that Israel has dozens and challenging Misztal directly: "Why do none of you admit it?"
Misztal also pushes back against being characterized as an uncritical supporter of Israel's government. He says he supports American interests and believes a close relationship with Israel serves them.
The excerpt reaches its central comparison near the end: Morgan argues that demanding transparency about Iran's nuclear capabilities while remaining silent about Israel's amounts to a double standard.
