Just heard that on MSNBC.
DR. FUCKING PHIL?????!!!!!
umm.....
Forget EVERYTHING I have ever said. If this is where we are, America is not worth saving. Maybe it can come back as something better, but in the immortal words of Dr. McCoy; "damn it Jim, I'm a doctor, not a political scientist! It's dead Jim...Jim, it's dead!"

book of Revelations is just a fable.
I think Bibi knows which side of the bread is buttered.

(228 posts)He's as likely as Trump to spend the rest of his life in court rooms, so he's reaching for every thread he can hold onto. He's got all the speech that AIPAC's right-wing oligarch money can buy here in the USA, and that's the best he can do?

(6,517 posts)Much as I don't like him I can't see him approving of anything going on over there. What did they say?

(26,142 posts)He's had Son of Hamas (Mosab Hassan Yousef) on his show numerous times and pitted them against Student Justice For Palestine on. He's been out to the UCLA camp. I think he's looking it as how youth process information. (Youth issue)

(10,330 posts)Pro Palestine to say the least.
I could only make it thru the first few minutes of his idiocy.
I've never liked the man and felt he used the emotionally unbalanced for profit. And now, safely behind his wall of wealth, he's using a deadly war to gain relevance.
Haggard Celine
(16,894 posts)He's an entertainer, not a serious psychologist, psychiatrist, or whatever. He was looking for a place to cut in and give his opinion. He isn't about helping people, not like most psychologists.
PatSeg
(48,182 posts)He uses vulnerable people and gets them to expose their emotional and psychological problems on camera. He has no scruples whatsoever. It is all for fame and money.
He is the last person we need negotiating peace in the Middle East.

(16,857 posts)That show was canceled in January 2023, with the final episode airing on May 25, 2023.
I'm wondering if you might have possibly misheard. I have a hard time imagining why Dr. Phil would have ever had Bibi on. That was not a political commentary or news show.
EDIT: Evidently Dr. Phil did interview him recently, but it wasn't part of his now defunct TV show.

Dr Phil has been wading into the protest stuff etc. He's been hosting Son of Hamas. I think that's how he got interested in interviewing Netanyahu.

I wonder how he would feel if his precious Robin were one of the "acceptable" losses?

(14,632 posts)everyone of the planet will suffer prodigiously except a few worthless billionaires.
Then when it becomes apparent to them that they have fucked the world beyond recovery, they will move into their well stocked bunkers and let the rest of us suffer the long term consequences of their greed.

(183,413 posts)Oprah had a segment about beef. It showed the ugly process of processing a cow. She said, I dont think Ill ever have another hamburger. In swept Big Beef with a 3-5 Million Dollar defamation lawsuit. One comment.
Oprah hired the top flight defamation law team including jury consultants. Shes Oprah. F you Phil was one of the most sought after jury consultants at the time. She got to know him. Liked his folksy speech and started having on her show. She owned a huge part of his syndicated show.
She won the case. Probably cost her near a million bucks but F you Im Oprah 👍
