    • Israel-Hezbollah TensionsThe conflict between Israel and Hezbollah highlights severe tensions, with both sides blaming each other for aggression. Civilians are suffering amidst increasing violence, and efforts for a diplomatic resolution are critical to avert further escalation and address underlying issues in the region.

      Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah have escalated significantly, resembling previous conflicts like the Gaza war. Both sides accuse each other of aggression, with Israel responding to attacks by Hezbollah, while Lebanon condemns Israel's actions as excessive and harmful to civilians. Efforts for diplomatic solutions exist, with hopes to calm the situation. However, both sides remain locked in a cycle of violence, complicating peace negotiations. Civilians on both sides suffer immensely as casualties rise, and entire communities are displaced. The ongoing military actions highlight underlying issues, including historical grievances and the challenges of achieving lasting peace amid regional instability. International responses, particularly from the US and UN, seek to mediate, but the path to resolution is fraught with difficulty due to differing perspectives on legitimacy and the nature of warfare. A diplomatic approach is essential to address concerns on both ends and to prevent further escalation.

    • Civilian ProtectionConflicts need to prioritize civilian protection and diplomatic resolutions over military actions, addressing root causes of violence to achieve lasting peace.

      Civilians should be protected during conflicts, and any attack resulting in civilian casualties raises serious legal and ethical concerns. Both Israel and groups like Hezbollah must be held accountable for their actions, and it’s essential to address the root causes of violence, including occupation and denial of statehood for Palestinians. A cycle of violence will only lead to further tragedy, affecting not just the immediate regions but the world at large. Seeking diplomatic solutions and upholding international law are crucial steps in breaking this cycle and achieving lasting peace. Dialogue is needed to resolve tensions rather than exacerbating them through military actions.

    • Cycle of ConflictThe conflict between Israel and Hezbollah escalates as both sides engage in violence. Critics call for accountability and peace over military actions, stressing the need to protect civilian lives.

      Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah remain high, especially after the recent attacks on October 7th, leading to many casualties on both sides. While Israel believes it must defend itself against threats, critics argue that its actions are escalating violence and harming civilians. There's a cycle of retaliation where both parties commit acts seen as war crimes. The current conflict reflects a long history of aggression and responses that could lead to further instability in the region. Observers urge for accountability and a reconsideration of military strategies instead of continuing warfare, emphasizing the need for peace through resolution rather than escalation.

    • Conflict DynamicsThe conflict highlights complex blame dynamics, with Israel's military responses debated for proportionality against ongoing threats from groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, raising questions about accountability and the need for resolution.

      The ongoing conflict involves complicated dynamics where blame is often placed on Hamas for civilian casualties. Some argue that Israel's defenses and military actions are necessary responses to continued attacks, particularly from groups like Hezbollah. Amidst the violence, questions about the proportionality of Israel's measures to protect its citizens remain unanswered, as evidence and claims about the actions taken by both sides are contentious. Each group involved has been accused of wrongdoing, complicating the narrative of who bears responsibility for the mounting deaths. The need for accountability and a clear understanding of the motivations behind these aggressive actions is crucial to addressing the violence effectively and ensuring innocent lives are safeguarded.

    • Conflict ViewsThe Israeli-Palestinian conflict involves complex issues of occupation, violence, and calls for peace, with both sides holding differing views on legitimacy, security, and the humanitarian toll of military actions.

      The debate centers on the complex Israeli-Palestinian conflict, where one side argues that Israel, as an occupying power, violates the rights of Palestinians and continues to commit violence without addressing their grievances. In contrast, the other side defends Israel's actions as necessary for national security, pointing out that Hamas's leadership opposes the existence of Israel. The discussion highlights the tragedy of civilian casualties in Gaza caused by Israel's military responses while criticizing Hamas for using civilians as shields. Calls for a peaceful two-state solution are undermined by ongoing violence and deep-rooted historical conflicts, leaving both sides trapped in a cycle of aggression instead of seeking lasting peace and coexistence.

    • Cycle of ViolenceThe conflict illustrates a cycle of violence and failed military solutions, indicating a need for dialogue and addressing the root issues of occupation and self-determination.

      The complexities of the conflict between Israel and groups like Hamas and Hezbollah are deeply rooted in history and violence on both sides. While Israel seeks to defend itself and dismantle threats, past military actions have often led to the rise of more extremist groups. Critics argue that a different approach, focused on ending occupation and allowing self-determination for Palestinians, has never been fully attempted. Instead, military solutions have failed repeatedly, leading to a cycle of aggression and civilian suffering. The cycle perpetuates as attacks escalate, and dialogue remains elusive, highlighting the need for a lasting peace based on mutual understanding and respect for all parties involved.

    • Israel-Palestine ConflictThe ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict stems from historical territorial injustices and a lack of willingness for compromise from Israeli leadership, particularly with expanded settlements and occupation policies, creating a cycle of violence that prevents peace.

      The conflict between Israel and Palestine is deeply rooted in historical grievances, territorial disputes, and the failure of both sides to reach a compromise. Radical groups, like the PLO and Hamas, have grown in response to Israel's actions and insistence on maintaining control over Palestinian lands. Attempts at peace, including the Arab Peace Initiative, have often been rejected by Israel, which continues to expand settlements and ignore Palestinian rights. Leaders like Netanyahu have further complicated peace efforts by adopting aggressive policies that neglect the need for genuine dialogue. Without addressing the root issues of occupation and equality, violence and resistance will persist, hindering any hope for long-lasting peace in the region.

    • Occupation and RightsEnding the Israeli occupation may provide hope for peace, but ongoing violence from groups like Hamas and Hezbollah poses significant challenges. Achieving equal human rights for Palestinians is essential for lasting resolution amid deeply rooted historical conflicts and current tensions.

      The current conflict involving Israel and the Palestinian territories highlights deep-rooted issues such as the ongoing Israeli occupation and the related struggles for human rights. Both sides face challenges and show a complex interplay of violence and terrorism. Many believe that ending the occupation could change the narrative and lead to a peaceful resolution, but there are also concerns about groups like Hamas and Hezbollah continuing their opposition regardless of territorial changes. Ultimately, the focus must be on achieving human rights and freedom for Palestinians while acknowledging Israeli security concerns, which have been significantly affected by historical conflicts and ongoing tensions. Finding common ground is critical for any hope of lasting peace in the region, and requires understanding the grievances and aspirations of both peoples and their respective claims to land and autonomy.

    • Conflict DynamicsThe debate reveals the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, emphasizing issues of leadership corruption, mutual distrust, and the quest for peace, revealing challenges in achieving self-determination for Palestinians while addressing Israel's security concerns.

      The debate highlights the deep-rooted conflict between Israel and Palestine, focusing on issues like corruption among Palestinian leaders and the ongoing violence in the region. Participants express a desire for peace and self-determination for Palestinians, yet struggle with the historical context of terrorism and the refusal of some Palestinian factions to accept Israel's existence. There is a clear call for genuine leadership, akin to figures like Mandela, but frustration remains over missed opportunities for negotiation. While some argue that Palestinians have not been given a fair chance, others believe Israel's security concerns justify its actions. This complex interplay of ideology, leadership failures, and external pressures complicates any path forward toward a peaceful resolution that honors both sides' rights.

    Palestinian Ambassador Husam Zomlot & Ex Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak

    Palestinian Ambassador Husam Zomlot & Ex Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak

    Piers Morgan has made a point of amplifying both Palestinian and Israeli voices, on a devastating conflict that many believe is entirely black and white. Today’s discussion is no different. Firstly, Piers talks to Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian Ambassador to the UK, who recounts his heartbreaking upbringing in a refugee camp, and the horrors visited upon his family. According to Zomlot, the Palestinian people have been made to feel like “children of a lesser god” at the hands of the state of Israel.


    Piers then turns to Israeli Former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, a man who personally strove to protect his nation when it was surrounded and attacked in their 1948 war. For him, the moral responsibility for Palestinian suffering lies squarely on the shoulders of the nations that wanted to destroy Israel. He reminds Piers of the multiple missed opportunities for peace, the ‘causal chain’ of violence and that the Jewish people of Israel cannot be held responsible.

    Dan Crenshaw vs Tim Miller On Kamala Harris and Donald Trump

    Dan Crenshaw vs Tim Miller On Kamala Harris and Donald Trump

    The race for the White House remains incredibly close, and the scrutiny the candidates are under continues to intensify. Donald Trump’s detractors continue to call him an existential threat to American democracy, while critics of Kamala Harris call her a flip-flopper devoid of policies.


    In this debate, Piers Morgan brings together two firebrands; congressman Dan Crenshaw and podcaster Tim Miller.


    As expected, neither one of these men minces their words. Crenshaw has no respect for Harris’ tour of talk shows and podcasts spreading joy, but Miller responds that Trump offers nothing better. Both claim they're arguing with facts while taking metaphorical shots at each other.

    New Diddy Revelations With Lawyer Tony Buzbee And More

    New Diddy Revelations With Lawyer Tony Buzbee And More

    The more information that comes to light regarding the arrest of Sean Combs AKA Diddy, the more the people of Hollywood are disgusted and enraged. Some are racing to reveal what they know, while others are conspicuously keeping schtum. One man who will soon be making a lot of noise is Tony Buzbee, a Houston attorney who is representing 120 of Diddy’s alleged victims. In his own words, his team has “a long list of names” to make public, and some of the names 'will raise eyebrows'.


    To further discuss this developing story, and decode whatever they can from Buzbee, Piers Morgan has invited commentator and YouTuber Choke No Joke, broadcaster and columnist Esther Krakue and former federal prosecutor Andrew Cherkasky.

    Mohammed Hijab vs Alan Dershowitz

    With its attack on Lebanon, Israel’s war on its enemies is spilling out into other countries; drawing even further condemnation from around the world. Piers Morgan wants to understand the conflict just like everyone else, but without any pretence or restrictions. To this end, Piers brings Muslim philosopher, scholar and YouTuber Mohammed Hijab and US lawyer and author Alan Dershowitz together on Uncensored.


    Suffice it to say, the trio struggle to stay on topic. Hijab quickly goes off topic, even insulting Dershowitz to the point that he threatens legal action. The debate rages on but is eventually brought to an end by an exhausted Piers

    October 7, One Year On - With Norman Finkelstein & Naftali Bennett

    One year ago today, Hamas terrorists burst through the barriers walling off Israel from Gaza and massacred more than 1,100 innocent people, taking 250 more as hostages. The sheer scale of the atrocity, and the animalistic barbarism of the killers, shocked the world.


    It was just the latest in a conflict spanning decades - and still, Israelis and Palestinians continue to live side-by-side no nearer to peace. What will happen next?


    Piers Morgan is joined by former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett before hosting a debate between political scientist and activist, Norman Finkelstein, Egyptian journalist Rahma Zein, Israeli-American commentator Emily Shrader and former British Army Officer and board member of Friends of Israel Initiative, Colonel Richard Kemp.

    Francis Ngannou On Fury, Joshua, Ronaldo And Those MMA Rumours

    Francis Ngannou On Fury, Joshua, Ronaldo And Those MMA Rumours

    Francis Ngannou is not just a study in how one man can rise to the top of MMA in the space of a few years, but also in how to maintain an endearing humility while doing it. The Cameroonian-French fighter was born into abject poverty, but decided to follow his boxing dream to Europe as a migrant. After months of rough sleeping and prison stays, Ngannou found a home in a French boxing gym where he trained and slept. The rest, as they say, is history.


    While he happily recounts his past to Piers Morgan, the Ngannou of today is looking toward to the future more and more. He says he still has challenges and constantly asks himself 'what's next?' In particular, he wants to start a business in his beloved Africa and has some advice for young men who look up to him.

    At the time of this podcast’s publication, Sean Combs AKA Diddy sits in a New York jail cell awaiting trial for federal indictments including sex trafficking and racketeering. While the world at large has been shocked by these allegations, seemingly everyone that Piers Morgan has spoken to about it had prior knowledge of this frightening 'open secret'.

    Piers invites singer and songwriter Jaguar Wright, Host of 'VladTV' DJ Vlad, and lawyer for one of Diddy’s accusers Ariel Mitchell-Kidd. They don't exactly agree on what exactly went down - but all are sure that household names will soon be cast to the fore.

    Rapper Lowkey Debates Israel, Hezbollah and Palestine With Piers Morgan

    Rapper Lowkey Debates Israel, Hezbollah and Palestine With Piers Morgan

    British rapper Lowkey’s music has been entwined with activism since he first picked up a mic, and true to form, he joins Piers Morgan Uncensored with political fire in his belly. Openly anti-Zionist and pro-Palestine, Lowkey lays the blame for the ongoing conflict in the Middle East squarely at the feet of Israel.


    Piers Morgan counters, saying that both Hamas and Hezbollah are fully committed to the destruction of the Jewish state, and their attacks would inevitably draw an IDF response.


    Piers then brings in Lebanese-American terror commentator Brigitte Gabriel, who claims that Israel had always wanted peace, and withdrew from Gaza in 2005. Lowkey is shocked by her statement that "Palestinians have brought this on themselves", and directly accuses her organisation ACT for America of accepting funding from organisations that invest in illegal settlements in the West Bank.

    Kamala Chameleon? With Clay Travis, Claudia Conway, Dinesh D’Souza & Cenk Uygur

    Vice President Kamala Harris visited the US/Mexico border over the weekend, arguably to blunt her opponent's criticisms that she's weak on illegal immigration. The visit however is being called performative considering her tenure as the 'Border Tzar' under Joe Biden's administration, and many are pointing out that this could be yet another example of inconsistency in her policies. Donald Trump responded to her visit with an expected personal attack; calling her 'mentally impaired'.


    For a review of the Republican and Democrat campaigns under the looming shadow of the upcoming Vance/Walz debate, Piers Morgan turns to Outkick founder Clay Travis, influencer and daughter of Kellyanne Conway, Claudia Conway, host of the 'Dinesh D’Souza Podcast' Dinesh D’Souza and founder and CEO of 'The Young Turks' Cenk Uygur.

    Israel Invades Lebanon After Nesrallah Killed - With Mosab Hasan Yousef, Omar Baddar & Mohammad Marandi

    Israel Invades Lebanon After Nesrallah Killed - With Mosab Hasan Yousef, Omar Baddar & Mohammad Marandi

    Israel’s retaliation to the ongoing attacks from Hezbollah were obviously expected, but the scale of the destruction of their rocket-firing foe has fuelled the ongoing debate on proportional response. Israel’s pager attack took everyone by surprise, and over the last 48 hours, almost the entire command structure of Hezbollah have been killed; including Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah. Now, Israel is apparently planning a ‘limited incursion’ into southern Lebanon, and the collateral suffering of the civilian population doesn’t seem likely to dissuade them.


    To analyse this expanding conflict, Piers Morgan talks to the ex–Palestinian militant who defected to Israel, Mosab Hasan Yousef, Palestinian-American Middle East analyst Omar Baddar and professor at the University of Tehran, Mohammad Marandi.
