Harvard professor suggested Hamas attack was attempt to hide Netanyahu corruption: gets outed and apologizes

Larry Tribe: professor at Saudi-funded Harvard University

Harvard professor Larry Tribe tweeted/deleted his conspiracy theory that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pursuing a war with Hamas to distract from his own government corruption. But he's now saying he's sorry for the "ill-informed" statement. X users had blasted his bull crap which is probably why he apologized.

Netanyahu responded to the Sabbath attack which initially killed about 100 Israelis by declaring that Israel is "at war" with Hamas. They have also taken military and civilian hostages, the latter being a war crime.

Tribe posted that the prime minister was "wagging the dog of war" in order to keep the focus off his own authoritarian power.

So the alternative for Netanyahu would have been to keep his mouth shut and just take it on the chin, like a good Jew and stop trying to fool the world that Israel needs to strike back. That didn't work out so well for them back in the day.

A large number of X users, even including Keith Olbermann, refused to buy the crap that Tribe was trying to sell and called the moron an "idiot" who needs to "go commit" himself somewhere. And when Olbermann attacks one of his own idiots, you know that person is an flaming idiot. He said of Tribe that his take on Netanyahu was "moronic and indefensible." 

Kudos to Olbermann.

Local Israeli media reported Sunday that at least 600 Israelis have been killed and 1,800 wounded since the Hamasshole sneak attack from Gaza on Saturday morning.

Tribe's post linked to Washington Post’s coverage of the Saturday attack in Israel after Hamas launched several thousand rockets into civilian areas of Israel, killing Israelis as they slept or on their own streets.

Tribe, who evidently thinks he's a mindreader, said that Netanyahu's motivation for war weren't simply about defending Israelis, but an attempt to keep the focus off of himself.

Dave Rubin, a conservative political commentator tweeted to Tribe: "You are a f------ idiot."

Author Ian Bremmer asked Tribe, "Are you kidding me? have you seen what’s happening on the ground? worst take I've seen this morning. and the bar is high."

Defense attorney and conservative commentator Marina Medvin wrote, "You’re a disgusting terrorist a--kisser."

Fox News reporter Julie Kelly posted: "You need to go commit yourself somewhere."

Seattle radio host Jason Rantz blasted the legal scholar, stating, "Thanks for reminding people that you’re the absolute worst person."

Israel needs to go beyond with how they have historically responded to Islamic terrorist attacks. They need to turn a deaf ear to the anti-Semitic criticism they get for responding with greater force than their enemies have meted out to them. And idiots like Tribe need to constantly be called out like this when making such ridiculous claims.

Israel needs to destroy Hamas completely and mean it when they say "Never Again."
