Not only has Jay Leno changed made the world a better place and transformed many bad or sad days for someone coming home to a family drama or losing one's job or all of the things that plague people in our societies and turning on the TV to forget a dismal existence, not only did he get someone to break off being blue to a quiet laugh or even a hearty one, but he's saved a part of our culture that would be rusting in the fields and locked up garages across his country and others. Cars are what defined America and the world and Leno made laughing a part of everybody's day. Piers Morgan, on the other hand, has graduated from being a superior television journalist to someone bringing a humble presence to the screens we have all been weaned on. Piers has shown us that it is possible to interview someone and tolerate extremist views and volatile exchange with sincere appreciation of the other person's inner world and stark demeanor.

If this is not Piers Morgan's best interview, I do not know what could top it. Jannicke's, David's and Michael's thoughts and words and expertise and Michael's near-death experience in a submersible amplifies the dangers of exploration. It show us, the viewing public, that like in the iconic movie Gladiator when the Commander of the -Roman army says that death hangs over every man, it really is true and when you dare to go where no man has gone before, one's fate is even more at risk. But what is not pleasant to see is that the submersible was being guided by a controlling device of questionable efficiency. These people paid a quarter of a million dollars for a dive in a submersible that should have had a backup submersible on the mother ship with a backup crew trained and ready to go down to get the first submersible if trouble came its way. It should have had a backup communications system. It should have had a way to bring the ship to the surface that was automatic should something go wrong with the steering, etc.

Piers Morgan has once again show himself to take on even the most difficult social issues and try to make sense out of a phenomenon that frankly has many people not knowing what in the world to sayabout it let alone understand it.

Thank you, Piers and Gad, not for this videocast, because infants killed atrociously have no words to describe it, but for commenting on something that both of you like all of us wish never had occurred. Many people around the globe who are tuning in to Piers Morgan and they will suddenly be aware that the world has changed once again to be a bit more dangerous place than it was just a while ago. I am going to say something as a lay person with a lay perspective, this is from someone who has never been in the military or in government and, Piers, it would be very much appreciated if you thought there was something to what I am about to say and hear your thoughts on the matter. Here is how I see the whole Israeli/Palestinian/Hamas picture. Could the Israeli-Hamas-Palestinian conflict be at least partially resolved by having the 2 million or more Palestinians relocated i.e., moved to the other part of Palestine? Yes; they would have to be given and/or get more territory to make up for the loss of Gaza. This for me is the only way to say goodbye to Palestinians living in an open prison with 2.6 million of them on a piece of land the size of the Isle of Wight. This sounds outrageously impossible to pull off and would cause a lot of pain as well as be a logistics nightmare, but Gaza is a festering wound from all accounts. Former American President Jimmy Carter called it the world's biggest concentration camp, something to that order. There will never be peace in Israel as long as Gaza is part of Palestine and everybody knows it. It could be transformed into a nature reserve. Palestinians could live as one on their own land and become a sovereign nation.

Piers Morgan shows the world by his interviews about the Titanic submersible's tragic encouter with death in this videocast the humaine and very compassionate and very caring human being that he really is. This shows the true soul of a man driven to get the truth out to the masses.

Hearing President Isaac Herzog for just about 7 minutes has my mind spinning out of control in what he personally witnessed about what happened to his country and to the unfortunate victims on 7 October. No one can imagine seeing what President Herzog has seen and experienced. You try to find the words to say something and your mind comes up a blank, because there are no words in the human community to explain what happened to those poor people. The people who committed those atrocious crimes are not a part of the human family.

Here is a peace plan that will make both sides be able to go back home to their families. Gaza must become the symbol for life and and this can be done by transforming it into a wildlife sanctuary for endangered species. About the Palestinians, this is where we need to ask the Arab Community to come together and find a suitable sized territory from the surrounding countries for the Palestinians to be able to have their own homeland. Everyone knows that what I am asking for is an arm and a leg from Arab countries, but the land is there and the Palestinians have been on the wrong side of every dispute in their history; this would give them a country that they could live and prosper in and Gaza would become a Galapagos of the middle east and one could even say it would be appropriate for The Holy Land to have a place where nature could be rescued in these troubled times.

Coming in at 10:48, this is where Piers Morgan shines as a talk show host, because he is truly concerned about AI and his experience in asking the right sort of questions gives extraordinary guests like Yuval Noah a platform that showcases their expertise to perfection, in easy-to-understand---albeit somewhat frightening---soundbites. Yuval sees the big picture whereas what most of us feel is that things are going fine because we are only experiencing the takeover of modern society by AI in digital biscuits. We are all androids now with the portable phone in everybody's mitt the minute there is a moment where nothing else is going on. We are hooked on the emerging future world like fish in a bathtub; we can only swim so far without having to come back and do it all again. The digital revolution is showing us that the virtual world is where we are headed. What we have to understand is that society as we know it and as we love it is coming down like a melted candle, the light is still there, but it is flickering and will soon go out. Darkness will fill our hearts, but when the light comes back on our world will be governed by machines that will think the path ahead for us. Like people who sign up for a religion and give away their sixth sense to a licensed spokesperson for God, we will all be obliged and most likely required to leave our fates to the whims of superior intelligence forms made from silicon brains who have learned to think for themselves and therefore whom will be lightyears ahead of the power of the human mind. Yes; all we know or thought we know will go into the meatgrinder that AI is preparing at this writing on transforming our way of life. Ironically, young people sense this and accept it because they have found their niche in social media and this is enough for them. Each new generation feels they have found their mark and they see their vision as justified when they see older people look at them with scorn; this is the sign they are waiting for to tell them they are on the right road. You see Piers; young people are not afraid to have the world run by machines aka AI synthetic beings that will look like humans but be able to chart a path to the stars. And: even as AI will be the new sheep herders, the generation of young people currently coming of age will gladly accept to be the sheep, because all of us already are…

In all due respect to everyone concerned, we know that Police sometimes get spooked and fire before they ask questions and when there are people shooting at you in a war zone, it is not always easy to be clear in your mind or have the time to analyze and look at oncoming people who have been the enemy up to that time and we know that there are traps that the enemy sets up. Put a green soldier into that list of possibilities and there is surely a chance that people will fire at what they perceive as a threat simply because it is behind enemy lines. Look at how my Russians have been killed by Russians firing at what they thought were Ukrainians and vice versa. War makes everyone jumpy and when your life is in danger, you think differently and reflexes take over. War is nothing but a tragedy that gets played every day until it's over.

Both of you guys have made it to cheese cake heaven!

There are not two people in the world I admire more than Piers Morgan and Sam Harris, and you will be surprised---it is not because of their incredible intellectual prowess and vast knowledge, but for the color of their eyes. Jokes aside---Hey, I was trying to put some humor into a discussion that has all of us crying for an end to the bloodshed and scratching our heads trying to find the way forward in seemingly endless and intractable and painful Israeli/Hamas/Palestinian conflict. What Sam has described as how the Muslim culture exists shows us that their way of doing things is not going away any time soon and it is not or never going to line up with the way a lot of other nations live or think and especially the people in Israel. This is why we have to use this philosophy: water down the mountain. This means to take the path of least resistance. Boys and girls, the solution is staring us right in the face over the Gaza horror story we are all absorbed in; we must put space between these two great peoples and others who clash with Israel's right to exist and let time do what it does best: find a way for misery to end----that was from a quote William Burroughs who said Time was invented so that misery could find an end. Israel needs time to heal and find its soul again; Palestinians need even more time to come together as a whole country that is theirs, nothing but theirs and only theirs so that their children can grow up with a Palestinian dream. This is doable and it isn’t going to happen in the Gaza strip for these wonderful people. The middle east has boundaries that have ben arbitrarily drawn up ages ago and it needs an upgrade with a patch of land designated to a people who have been shoved around and kicked about and fallen on their hopes and dreams for far too long.

@JOHNTIM212 GGGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. We all hear what we want to hear and see what we want to see in this life.

@Sophie-go3ql GGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. You have got a real point there. What I know is that in certain people, the only time they feel alive is when they are laughing at death in the face. A friend of mine had a cigarette boat and he was only 'alive', the only time he felt alive was when he was at full throttle into the waves. There is something about life to some people that means you must dare to win over all the odds at coming back alive that makes sense of life. It's bonkers to most people, but we can see that going to war is in our genetic makeup. Everyone who is on the front line knows the dagger of their demise is pointed at their heart and could pierce it at any moment. Still; man goes to war.

It is refreshing to hear Jordan Peterson's excellent appraisal of the inner-workings of the middle east and to pin the blame squarely on the Mullahs of Iran. What I didn't realize is how the lost planet fools, sometimes called our leaders, blew getting the Abraham accords signed, sealed and delivered. So strange to hear that former President Trump was behind it, but everything is strange these days. What I as a lay person see as the way to clean the slate and resolve two conflicts with a wink and fist full of dollars is to realize that the Gaza fishbowl living situation for the Palestinian people must be forever removed from the negotiation table and that these poor people get a ticket to ride out of that hell hole and get joined up with their West Bank counterparts. Yes; Gaza must be transformed into something else than an open prison and I am sure there are few people whom I know and many I don't know who will disagree with me on this, but I believe the road to achieving peace in Gaza and in other hot-spots around the world is to create wildlife refuges as a way to stop everybody's clock and do something that we can hand down to future generations as at least something positive from our time. Instead of endless wars to show our children’s children how not to build a society, why not turn Gaza into a sort of Galapagos of the middle east for endangered species? Okay; that's part one, and it is important in that without the Palestinians Hamas would not have a place to hang its hat and it would wither and die and blow away like tumbleweed. Next: the Palestinians must be given a corridor to The West Bank where temporary quarters can be set up and yes; it will be a logistics nightmare, and if the King and Queen of Jordan could help us out and cut a chunk of Jordan's land to join up with the West Bank and therefore have all the Palestinians living under one roof, so-to-speak, I sincerely believe that terrorism would fizzle and die in the region once the Palestinians have a sovereign chunk of property that is theirs forever. Why aren’t we pitching this to the Arab nations who could surely come in and help their brothers and sisters in Gaza? This is doable; this is a peace plan.

There was a doctor who told me that the worst fears doctors have about a patient having cancer is that once it gets out of the organ where its found, its like a train that has left the station and all you can do is chase it. I hope King Charles III does not have cancer on the run in him.

As someone tuning in from where we live which is 2,000 kilometers from Kiev and Ukraine where we have been following atrocities for 607 odd days, the 7 October invasion of Israel by Hamas militia fighters has finally shone a light on a situation that former American President called an open prison in describing Gaza. In all due respect I have to say that Piers Morgan has shown himself to be an exceptional listener, never taking sides, an excellent referee and a top-notch interviewer by allowing people from both sides of the political aisle speak out about the Israeli-Hamas-Palestinian problem. He has recieved insults and reflects them back as if he were made of teflon. I have tuned into Cenk's show and he and his team are always on the side of the oppressed in society. I am an artist with no credentials in geopolitics or government, but I would like to ask Cenk one question that baffles me. Cenk, as a Muslim, there are---correct me if I am wrong---26 Arab countries. Why on Earth has not one of the Arab nations come forward to offer the Palestinians the land they need to house all of their people in one place and give them what they need to rebuild their lives and make a sovereign country for themselves. Why is no one seeing that the only solution for Hamas to wither and die is for the Palestinians to leave for good the inhospitable and inhumane living conditions that they have been forced to accept in Gaza for 56 years? Hamas survives because they need a host people who are living in such miserable conditions that of course they accept their 'help'; they would accept the devil himself if he offered to help them fight for a homeland.

Let's be real: a nuclear threat is like a joker in the blackjack card game. It is never used. President Putin is the Wizard of Oz for his people, but we see behind the curtain. What we have to realize is that somehow, some way, pathological narcissists rise to power like mushrooms in damp forests in the dead of autumn. We are a human community of altruists led by pathological psychopaths whom have no qualms at all about lives being lost for whatever the cause they are touting. We have also got to realize that finance capitalism is an economic model that foments divisions in our human family. Scores of people who would be struggling to make a living are living lush lives because an ancestor invented the gasket, for example. We have to ditch an economic system we have all been weaned on to come up with another model that has everyone on the same page.

Piers Morgan knows how to stage a debate that everyone not only enjoys but learns something valuable in these troubled times we all live in. Moreover; emotions should be left at the studio door before commencing. At 7:26 President Lula of Brazil has been thrown into the fires of illegitimacy by Rabbi Shmuley, must we go on with voices raised and snarling, scathing attacks on everyone and anyone who has their own opinion of what is going on in The Holy Land?

@cehaem2 GGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. I am an artist and not at all into geopolitics or goverment, but when a former American president calls the Gaza strip a concentration camp and open prison, you know something is not right. The people there are living in less-than-acceptable conditions. I say relocate the 2.6 million Palestinians, turn Gaza, the 145 square kilometers, into a nature reserve for animals on the verge of extinction and get the Palestinians all living in the same place. I realize that this is something off-the-charts, totally unnaceptable, but sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind to get things done right. To recap: Gaza is not sustainable to be a country and the Palestinians cannot prosper there. They must have their own country and all live in the same place.

@openmind8919 GGGGGGGGGreat to hear form you. You are right and I am an artist looking out there to try to find a solution and the big brick in the road that no one seems to want to accept is that in spite of all you have said which is spot on, Israel is not going away any time soon. It is really the 51st state of the world's greatest superpower. This means one thing: The Palestinians deserve a piece of land that is dignified to be called a country and the Arab Community has to step in a re-draw some borders to give the Palestinians a country that can become a sovereign state. Gaza could become a nature reserve cum Galapagos that could bring these warring nations together to save the endangered plant, animal and aquatic species disappearing at an alarming rate. It would also draw in more tourists than the pyramids. There is no gain without pain in the Israeli/Palestinian conundrum.

What Piers Morgan and Dr Abdul Wahid show us is a clash of cultures where both sides will go home tonight believing in their cause. This is human nature. What no one seems to understand is that Gaza has become a no-man's-land for a very tired and dejected and abandoned people who do not deserve to be punished any more than Israeli citizens do. The answer to all the hard questions lies in the Greater Arab Community. Dr Wahid could do the Palestinians a great service by asking his Muslim brothers and sisters to end the madness of the Palestinian plight by carving out a patch of land where Palestinians can till the ground and build a country where their kids can grow up with a Palestinian dream. This is doable. The hard nut to crack of course is that Israel is not going away any time soon; the Palestinians and all those who oppose the Israelis having a sovereign country must be made to see and understand that a new philosophy is needed and here it is: Water down the mountain." What do I mean by that? Water flowing down a mountain always takes the path of least resistance. Let us solve the Palestinian dilemma with no resistance and it can be over like a morning rain shower.

What the world needs now is to realize that we have to get these two great peoples, the Palestinians and the Israelis safe havens for their countries and peace forever more. How can we do this? I am an artist and I have no experience in geopolitics so please understand I am only one person with only one point of view that surely shows my lack of experience in international affairs. Here is what I believe is a peace plan for the middle east that is a win/win situation for all parties and for the entire human family. We must make Gaza a sort of Galapagos of the middle east and relocate the 2.6 million Palestinians who have not the sort of life any of us would ever want to experience for a day let alone live there indefinitely. Gaza should be plowed under, bulldozed and the rubble taken away to make an oasis for endangered species from across the world. The Isle of Wight is roughly the same size as Gaza, 145 square miles; it is absurd to have it overpopulated to such a degree that a normal life is impossible to be had. This peace plan would be the solution that would see Palestinians and Israelis working side by side at a future date and saving the many, many species of plants, animals, fish and bird and the like that are disappearing from the world at an astounding rate. Gaza should be a World Heritage Site that the entire human community can appreciate and be proud of. Palestinians should live under one flag as a sovereign nation in one patch of land and be allowed to prosper and enjoy a normal life. This is doable. It means being cruel to be kind, but Israel can only move on if Gaza becomes a paradise for precious endangered species and the Palestinians are given enough land for them to live on. This is doable. To help out with the enormous task of relocating more than two million people we could ask countries around the world to help out. China has entire cities already built with millions of apartments waiting for occupants and millions of jobs that need laborers. Why not ask if they could help out? Let this roll around in your mind: a Galapagos of the middle east in Gaza. What you will find is a smile coming to your face and we all know that there is no turning back this time. If Gaza stays like it is, the next war will likely be nuclear and I think everyone knows it.

Neil deGrasse oozes respectability and takes science out the textbooks for all of us to marvel at. Piers, Neil; you & I are probably the last generation that will not live forever. What it looks like---and I am referring to the testimony of scientists like Neil----who say that by 2045 we will be able to achieve immortality. One's life will be able to be extended---indefinitely. This means that history will be putting us in sarcophagus of sorts and we will be like the ancients i.e., classed as a former species of modern humans. It is what is called progress and my boat is moving down river...

In top form, both Morgan and Mearsheimer navigated the heated waters of the current world hot-spots and each brought clever, rational arguments defending each one's person views in a discussion that was a pleasure to listen to.

@davereynolds3403 Great to hear from you. I am an inventor and my philosophy is the path of least resistance. The neighboring countries must come to the Palestinian peoples’ aid. First, get the women and children out of there—like Poland taking a million Ukainians in their homes. King Abdulla if Jordan could be the power-broker!

@Sophia-bq2sp Great to hear from you. I am not optomistic about the future; I am optomistic about young people because they are the architects of what this way comes…

Piers, it must be the most frustrating thing in the world when some of your guests will not give a yes or no answer to a plain simple question. They should understand that they lose all credibility.

First, it is a relief to see such respect and decency in the debate this evening. No one butting in makes it so much easier to stay in tune with the flow of the discussion. Second, as regards to Israel accepting a 2-state solution for Israel and Palestine, what I have gleaned from my research is that the reason why Israel will never agree to the Palestinians having a 2-state solution in the present state of things is because if they become a sovereign nation and Hamas is running the government, then it will be next to impossible to intervene if Hamas continues to be a terrorist organization---which it has recently sworn itself to be in wishing for the complete destruction of Israel. It would be mass suicide for Israel to accept Palestinians having a country run by a Hamas government sworn to destroy it and also be a sovereign state. Thirdly, both Professor Dershowitz and Dr Finkelstein point out things that people like myself with no geopolitical qualifications in international disputes can respond to with other than the sad realization that if this isn't the Catch-22 situation of the world, I don't know what is. (Isn't the proverbial expression "Damned if we do, damned if we don't?") There are no angels running militaries on either side of a conflict is all I know. Lastly, let us solve the problem in Israel and the Palestinians with this philosophy: water down the mountain. What does this mean? Water takes the path of least resistance to descend a mountain. We must end this war between Hamas and Israel with the path of least resistance. The way to do this is to call upon The Greater Arab community to step in and I mean to redraw boundaries in the region, and find it in their hearts to give a portion of their lands for a proper Palestinian country where all Palestinians can live and prosper. And: when this happens; Hamas will be nowhere to be found because it only exists because of Palestinians suffering from the inhumane living conditions they have been obliged to accept for decades.

In all due respect to the distinguished Palestinian Ambassador Husam Zomlot, the small crater in the hospital parking lot does appear to be nothing like the sort of missile that could blow up a building. But, why rush to judgement until a proper international investigation and thorough analyses has been made? It is also time to realize that finger pointing is getting us nowhere in getting to the real heart of the problem and that is that the Palestinian people need one country to live in for all of their people, so that children can grow up dreaming of having wonderful futures and abundance in their life and achieving it. The plain simple truth of the matter is that is not now or ever going to happen with 2.6 million Palestinians living in a postage stamp-sized piece of land that is unfit for human beings and the proof is in the pudding: 5 wars in 15 years and the hate between two great peoples is amping up by the day. What is the solution? We all know that the Palestinians deserve a homeland and that must be the priority. Gaza should be the prize of peace between Israelis and Palestinians and be made into a sort of Galapagos of the middle east for all endangered plant, animal, bird and fish species. A Gaza nature sanctuary would be a legacy for our children's children and something positive to end the war between two nations which desire to live in peace and prosperity. This is doable; this makes sense; and it's the perfect legacy for the Holy Land.

PIers and Yuval, I am only one voice and probably have a naïve point of view on AI, but here goes. I think we have to realize that the train has left the station and all we can do is chase it from now on as far as AI development is concerned. In the human body of a man, if cancer cells get away from a cancerous prostate, the end is more or less guaranteed for the poor guy, because they never can catch it once it is on the loose. But in the world today----let's take art for example---I am an artist and I see that AI has found a comfortable niche already in coming up with amazing pseudo-photographic work---incredibly---an AI simulated photo fetched 400,000 USD at auction. So; it's here and I say bring it on. It will separate the artists who are technically excellent in their work but could change jobs in a heartbeat from the artists who have art in them and will continue their careers by having a permanent side-job if need be. The information we all look at must now be viewed with scrutiny and double-checked and reviewed constantly. It is simply too hard to detect fakes and our technological advances in weeding out BS is in its infancy. Ditto with robots and the silicon minds they will possess which are going to generate renegades and much to our regret we are going to get blowback until we conquer the problem by altering and tweaking the silicon genes we put in them by making them foolproof and ensuring all AI assisted silicon robots and machines will be no more and no less than our family dog in their relationship with humans. Yes; we must realize that even when singularity is reached and it has blossomed into sentient silicon beings far superior to us, they must always be our companions i.e., equal to a family pet. This is doable; it may seem insurmountable, but this is how our democratic world in the west may be wired by machines, but will always be shaped by humans…

@user-pq7wx4kr3y GGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. We must remember that we are shooting for the stars here and if we end up on the moon, that is not so bad at all! What is important is to remember that before someone can use a finger for instance, that has been infected from a cut and needs antibiotics, they have to wait until the bacteria has been eliminated and the wound is healed. There are infections in nature from elements put their for life to evolve. In the middle east, nothing will change until there is a decent and humane life for the Palestinian people. This is doable and we have to keep moving the pieces on the chessboard until checkmate. The only mindset that is needed is that nothing will stop us from achieving a proper homeland for the Palestinians and to find a solution that avoids armed conflict. To my mind, the solution has been in plain sight for decades.

There has never been such a painful subject that I can recall than what has been happening in the middle east between Israel and the Palestinian people. I am not a qualified person from a government agency, so please bear with me on my solution to this very unpleasant situation between two great peoples, the Israelis and the Palestinians. What I want to use as a philosophy is this: water down a mountain. Water seeks the path of least resistance and I believe we need to do the same to end the conflict that has Israelis and Palestinians and other groups at each other’s throats. In all due respect to the Palestinian National Initiative Leader, Mustafa Barghouti, what I believe needs to be created is not only a two-state solution for Israel and the Palestinian people, but a parcel of land decided upon and offered by neighboring Arab nations that would become a sovereign state for the Palestinian people. This is the way that could find everyone enjoying life in their own land and sharing peaceful borders. This needs the King of Jordan and Queen Raenia to boldly help design a designated territory that will be home for all the Palestinians. Here is cherry on the cake or cream pie in the face of this peace plan. Gaza, this blood-soaked strip of land of 145 square kilometers could be transformed into a wildlife refuge cum Galapagos of the middle east for endangered species of plant, animal and aquatic life. The Indonesian tiger is down to 150 in the wild; it could be saved and creating nature reserves can be the solution for conflicts between warring factions of neighboring countries. Yes; it means a lot of pain, but the gain is that the Palestinian people would have their own land that would become in time Palestinian sovereign territory. Nature reserves can end these horrible conflicts by creating buffer zones where nature is rescued and neighboring peoples can work together as peaceful neighbors. It means re-drawing existing borders and generosity from neighboring Arab nations, and like water down a mountain it only requires dividing up land so that the Palestinian people has a fair amount of living space for their children's children.

Why are people answering questions with questions? What is so hard about Piers asking "Do you think women are oppressed in Afghanistan under sharia law?" Why can't that simple question have a yes or no response?

@kb7202 GGGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. That's like someone asking "What do you think of President Biden?" and the person answers "What do you mean by president? What's is a president to you?"

Here is a peace plan. I am an artist and so please excuse my ignorance in understanding what is going on in the Israeli/Hamas/Palestinian conflict. What must be realized is that children have a right to grow up in a country that is their own land and with a dream to live a wonderful life. Gaza cannot, has not and will not provide this and even former American President Jimmy Carter called Gaza an open prison. Hamas is an entity because the Palestinian people willingly accept anyone offering help to safeguard their way of life; the devil himself would have no trouble getting approved for helping out in Gaza, because the level of suffering has driven a people over the abyss. What is the solution? Gaza has had 5 wars in 15 years and it is time to transform this patch of land into a wildlife sanctuary cum Galapagos of the middle east for endangered species of plant, animal and aquatic life. This is how to end the conflict and all conflicts between warring factions of neighboring states: build nature reserves. However; 2.3 million people from Gaza need to be repatriated to their Palestinian brothers and sisters where all Palestinians can live in peace. This is the conundrum that can be solved by The Greater Arab Community. This is not my domain as you can see, but I would ask the Arab community to reconsider borders and carve out a piece of land fit for the Palestinians and free from settlers and the like. This is doable. Gaza as a nature reserve would draw in more tourists than the pyramids and offer a place of employment for Israelis and their neighbors and it would be something----like the pyramids----that we could send to generations to come to show we found the way to end these interminable and intractable wars that only ruin the lives of decent people.

It is so sad to hear that, Megan, Prince Harry's wife, could not understand the historic family she was introduced and welcomed into, and to realize what an absolute piece of luck she was handed in being able to be accepted into Britain's Royal Family. Of course, there would be all kinds of things said and done that should have been left as private conversation as in any family. So; for Megan and Harry to go planetary with their incendiary put downs and insinuations and even saying racist things were said are simply stupid and it has poisoned relations with her father-in-law and everyone in the circle of the Royal Family. It hurts the ears to hear things that should never have been said by an outsider to the Royal Family and seemingly willing to throw the British monarchy and her inlaws under the bus to satisfy some sort of desire to be heard above the din. It is embarrassing and worse, it's on international TV for everyone to hear about and the absolute worst thing about it is that it's all hearsay. Nothing Megan or Harry say can be taken seriously, because we know they are getting paid a fortune for their fairy-tale books and vindictive interviews. It is unfair to the Royal Family because someone was welcomed into their homes and been a party to their private occasions pretending to be loyal and truthful and kind and behind everyone's back, cherry-picked conversations to make the Royals seem crude and cruel and the like.

Piers, isn't it obvious that former President Trump is using the LBJ playbook? Johnson would have certainly been convicted and may even have been sent to prison if he had not become America's president when JFK was gunned down and then he had Bobby Baker's and another Johnson henchman's charges dropped and freed from jail. Trump has 91 indictments around his neck that are like shark's teeth waiting to take a bite if he does not become president in 2024! Trump's ticket to freedom is winning against Uncle Joe; let's guess how this is going to turn out.

I mean come on now; the moment you hear 'squeaky-clean' Alan Dershowitz saying publicly that the only person he has had sex with---in his connection with Jeffrey Epstein---is his wife---is a joke. Boys and girls, common sense and knowing people will steamroller over the truth the moment they can try to justify being in the presence of people who are on the cloudy side of the law is a part of the human condition. Dershowitz needs to 'fess up' and give us the goods, because now we know he was getting more than massages at Epsteins' 'pleasure palaces'!

Piers, in all due respect to a television journalist that is fast becoming the sharpest tool in the shed and yes that means you, hear me out , will you? That no one understands what is standing in the way of the Palestinians having a two-state solution with Israel is, well, understandable. Nonetheless; here are the goods that have been delivered via Youtube to my brain factory: as long as Hamas has the possibility of taking control---democratically---of a future Palestinian state, Israel knows full well in advance that this would spell disaster for them because an international terrorist organization like Hamas would then be under the cover of being the dully elected leaders of a sovereign state and thereby seize the day every time there was conflict in the air and guns blazing at the frontier.

Piers Morgan is the gold standard of interviewers and he shows it with former Governor Chris Christie who sounds more presidential with every interview he makes. I am an artist and armchair observer of a world gone mad and our ecosystems in peril. Here we are in 2023 and we actually have to have Chris Christie chime in on the fact that the Jewish community is under attack in America and across the world and it is appalling that whoever these people are that think they have the right to criticize people because of their religious beliefs, they are not welcome in the human family. This is simply not like us in the human community; we are not people who condemn others because of their race, color or creed. Who on earth do they think they are to be cruel, impolite, and harmful to another human being? The Hamas problem would go away without one bullet being fired if we would all stand up for the human community and realize that the only reason Hamas exists is because the Palestinian people in Gaza live in conditions that attract extremists who they embrace because no one else is fighting for their cause. But the real thing the Arab nations and the UN and the world community writ large is not doing is realizing that the Gaza strip with its 5th war in 15 years has to be re-imagined as a home for Palestinians lock, stock and barrel. We must change this intractable powder keg into a wildlife sanctuary and relocate the trapped and humiliated Palestinian people living there at any cost. Lastly, criticism of Netanyahu is raining down, but no one seems to understand that what the Israelis and Prime Minister Netanyahu needs more than at any time in Israel's history is for us to back him in his struggle to reign in the situation and get the job done and wish him well. To recap: Hamas will wither and die if Gaza is re-purposed and 2.6 Palestinians join their brothers and sisters in the West Bank. The West Bank needs more land and this is a walk in the park next to war against an invisible army of militants fighting in cramped quarters for a people on the verge of moral collapse because of inhuman living conditions. We can and must step in and put a stop to this madness...

In all respect to the legendary Piers Morgan and elegant Kari Lake, former President Trump made some good political moves according to the renown and respected CEO of one of the world's most successful banks, Jamie Dimon. Recently, in an interveiw at Davos when asked about Bitcoin, Jamie Dimon said his advice was to avoid it: this has caused a firestorm; but he went on to say that Trump made some good calls as President. But let's be real: Kari, in your region and in your country, if someone was running for Drain Commisioner and I am not making this up. People spend millions trying be the Drain Commisioner in their district, but if someone was running for Drain Commisioner and he had allegations of rape haunting him publicly and he or she had 91 Federal Indictments pending, do you really believe voters would brush away all the potential legal woes and vote for that person?

The best thing said was what Mr Hagen said about the skipper's mission to democratize the depths of the ocean.

Forgive me for not being able to understand one thing about former President Donald J. Trump winning the Republican nomination in Iowa. How can this be when someone has 91 Federal indictments against him? How can anyone seriously believe in someone who has a wagon train of criminal charges behind him? It does not compute in my head. We are talking about someone who has most likely committed a crime or several crimes.

Sam Smith has found the new way for sheep herders to dress. Piers just think of how much more wool the sheep will try to grow! Wolves will run when they see a bloke come out with lovely legs; Sam just might have saved little lambs from being coming wolf saliva!!!!

It is a cop out to say because of another person---in this case former Prime Minister Boris Johnson---that one is quitting politics or a job or a sports club etc. What Rory Stewart most likely means is that he used Johnson as his excuse to call it a day in government because he was looking for a clever way to retire in grace from the pollical environment he was in. 5 will get you 10 he had already decided in his mind long beforehand that he wanted out. But how to leave gracefully? Being in the public eye 24/7 must be exhausting, so he had to find a watertight reason to leave which wouldn't raise too many eyebrows. He searched for and found the key to his freedom in the form of a universally scorned Prime Minister. He knew everyone would understand and not even question why he left his government post. Boris Johnson’s heavily criticized and numbing antics offered Stewart his ticket to ride. It gave Rory the excuse he needed to be fed up and disgusted with a political opponent whose time in office he believed was one faux pas too many. To his credit, Johnson will probably go down in British and world history as the leader of a major global player who gave the Ukrainian government the will to win against the world’s second superpower. Johnson has been criticized for the way he did it, but by risking his life in visiting Kiev in the early days of the war and pledging unlimited UK support to President Zelensky, the fate of a sovereign nation was decided on the spot. Zelensky's Churchillian charm and charisma has enflamed the Ukrainian people who have shown nothing but heroic bravery on and off the battlefield. Visualized in everyone's mind, the baton of freedom is firmly in the Ukrainian spirit, and the Ukrainians have been marching en masse to the goal post, sure of victory over the oppressor, ever since Johnson's surprise visit to Kiev in early 2022.
