Political commentator Ben Shapiro has analysed and reflected on the brutal and unfolding War in Israel in a wide-ranging interview with Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan.

Mr Shapiro – who is Jewish –spoke of where he was when Palestinian militant group Hamas recently launched its largest attack on Israel in years.

He also spoke of the future of the region and whether the possibility for a peace deal could be achieved.

Mr Morgan said he has been “shocked and sickened” by the stories that have emerged from the brutal attack on Israel.

“I’ve also been stunned by the moral cowardice of those who celebrated terror as resistance and brutality as politics,” Mr Morgan said.
