Israel,Gaza

Political satirist Bassem Youssef spoke to ITV News about the situation in Gaza while taking his show on a European tour.

A comedian who rose to prominence after a heated interview with Piers Morgan on the Israeli-Gaza conflict, has told ITV News the West has lost its courage when it comes to dealing with the conflict.

Asked if there's anything the West can do to stop suffering in Gaza, he said: "The West has lost its balls, the West has no balls." "After six months, 30,000 people killed, 80% of the place destroyed, 100% of the people displaced, 50% of the victims are children. But it is starting to get a little bit uncomfortable. Wow."Despite pleas from Western leaders to avoid a deadly ground invasion of Rafah, Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted the attack "will happen" and a date has been set.

Both candidates in this year's presidential election - Mr Biden and Donald Trump - have shown strong support for Israel and Bassem. "I tried to take people away from what's happening in the current events because I can't deal with it, honestly. I get too flustered, too much, too involved. It's just too much,” he said.
