Speaker Piers Morgan
Okay, but you wouldn't disagree presumably that Iran has been the main sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East through the Houthis, through Hezbollah, through Hamas. I mean, that's widely accepted and recognized.
Speaker Candace Owens
I don't think it's widely accepted. Now, that's just kind of a...
Speaker Piers Morgan
Really? You don't think they have?
Speaker Candace Owens
Israel has been a terrorist state, okay? Israel right now is imparting a genocide and a Holocaust on the Gazan people.
Speaker Candace Owens
Uh, so I'm I'm really over this idea like somehow Israel has the moral high ground and we have to get behind them.
Speaker Piers Morgan
I didn't say that.
Speaker Candace Owens
We've got to go after the bad guys. We have...
Speaker Piers Morgan
I wasn't saying that. Oh, hang on, hang on, hang on. Look, we can come to Gaza where I think we'll reach agreement about what Israel's government's been doing there in the last few months.
Speaker Candace Owens
But it's relevant. If you're going to call Iranians terrorists, if they right now had an open concentration camp where they were mass killing their own people, we would all be saying this is ridiculous. So it's it's rich to me that people are concerned about Iran having nukes.
Speaker Piers Morgan
Okay, but that's two different things.
Speaker Candace Owens
But I'm concerned about Israel who won't even admit that they have nukes, having nukes. But at the same time, they are executing a genocide and a Holocaust in Gaza that the world is watching. So, who's the bigger terrorist is the question today.
