he acknowledged that the Zionists expelled the Palestinians to create Israel. He said he has no problem with that. The rest of that paragraph is my obvious conclusion from these and other extreme racist comments Bill Maher consistently makes about Arabs.

He read excerpts from Benny Morris' book, which he fully endorsed.

I've also heard him say that Arabs only know violence and the only way to deal with Arabs is with violence (or something similar, I can't find it anywhere posted)

Very little of what goes on in his shows is searchable. Hardly any is on YouTube and there are no transcripts anywhere that I can find.
