Why Comedian Ami Kozak Thinks the Debate Over Israel Is BROKEN

from The Chris Cuomo Project · host Chris Cuomo

Ami Kozak (comedian and musician) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss rising anti-Zionism, the backlash against Israel since October 7th, and how he uses satire to respond to hate. Kozak explains how his Jewish identity shapes his worldview, why the far left and far right both weaponize antisemitic tropes, and how performative politics is blurring the lines between legitimate critique and bigotry. He also shares impressions and critiques of public figures like Bernie Sanders, Dave Smith, and Joe Rogan, takes on Tucker Carlson, and explains why impressions can reach people in ways arguments can’t.
