Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro and British author and political commentator Douglas Murray dissected the rise of the radical Left in the U.S., especially within the Democratic Party on the latest episode of “The Ben Shapiro Show Sunday Special.”

Shapiro and Murray first talked about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas and the anti-Israel bias spewed by much of the legacy media, a bias that has been multiplied on college campuses, in the highest echelons of American universities, and even in Congress.

“The idea that you have hundreds of thousands of Westerners marching in solidarity with the murderers, that was on some level more disturbing to me than the actual massacre itself — certainly not in terms of the actual amount of human suffering and the horrifying evil and barbarity of it, but in terms of the threat to the civilization as a whole,” Shapiro said of anti-Israel demonstrations that broke out following Hamas’ attack on Israel where terrorists murdered over 1,000 people.

Murray agreed, adding that the anti-Israel demonstrations on streets across the world were at their core “anti-American” and “anti-Western.”

“Why can you predict with 100% accuracy that the proud Palestinian, not to mention pro-Hamas demonstrators, will never in America carry an American flag? Why do we know with 100% accuracy that when 100,000 mainly Muslim demonstrators go through the streets of London on a Saturday, they will not finish the demonstration by singing God Save the King?” Murray asked. “Why do I know that with 100% accuracy? Because it’s not about Israel, it’s about America. It’s about Britain, it’s about France.”

“This is a revolutionary movement and it finds its first and most fevered and most flattered version in its attack on Israel,” he added. “But of course, it’s anti-American; of course, it’s anti-Western; of course, it’s anti-British.”

Later in the interview, Shapiro and Murray talked about revolutionaries’ craving for violence throughout history, a craving that Murray warned is evident in today’s radical leftists. Shapiro also noted that radical demonstrators and political leaders have been largely supported by the Democratic Party establishment.

“What’s more interesting to me is the collapse of the liberal world order in the face of this. The so-called moderates who seem to be willing to traffic along these lines,” Shapiro said. “In the United States, the Democratic Party [is] continuing to massage the shoulders of the members of the Congress who are members of Hamas, or if not members, then at least fellow travelers of terrorists.”

The willingness to pat on the head, the protesters on college campuses by saying, ‘Well, you know, we don’t want them being bad and, you know, spray painting buildings. But there’s just so much passion, and we hear what they’re saying.’ This attempt to sort of massage them into jet fuel for what they believe is more moderate movement. And that’s the part that that I find particularly disturbing,” he added.

“There seems to be almost a lack of an immune system on the sort of center-Left for this sort of stuff to the point where it’s pretty obvious, I think, to anybody who’s observing politics, whether you’re doing so in Europe or in the United States … the revolutionaries are going to be in control of the movement. I would be shocked if they’re not,” Shapiro continued.

Murray chimed in, saying the coddling of radical leftists by the Democratic Party is similar to bad parenting.

“I would use an analogy that a lot of people will know from family life. You’re a parent. You observe, as I do, patterns and what good parenting looks like, what bad parenting looks like,” Murray said. “And I’m sure you’ve observed, as most people have, a parent who is terrified of their child.”

“People who want to be friends with their children, that’s a ghastly place to start. But … the parent who’s scared of the child and therefore creates the world around the child so the child will not be upset. It’s a surefire way to create an absolute brand of a human being who will probably never grow up,” Murray said. “But I think something like that is happening with the politicians and the generation coming up.”

Two radio stations confirmed on Saturday that they were given questions by Biden officials ahead of their interviews with President Joe Biden this week as the administration fights for its survival following Biden’s disastrous debate performance last week against former President Donald Trump.

The questions reportedly were drafted by officials at the White House and were then sent to the radio stations by Biden’s presidential campaign.

Andrea Lawful-Sanders, host of “The Source” on WURD in Philadelphia, told CNN that “the questions were sent to me for approval. I approved them.”

“I got several questions, eight of them, and the four that were chosen were the ones that I approved,” she added.

Biden was asked similar questions during an interview with Earl Ingram, host of “The Earl Ingram Show” in Milwaukee, who also interviewed the president this week.

“Yes, I was given some questions for Biden,” Ingram told ABC News. “I didn’t get a chance to ask him all the things I wanted to ask.”

He said that he was given five questions from Biden officials and ended up asking four of them.

Biden campaign spokesperson Lauren Hitt, who used to work for far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), claimed: “It’s not at all an uncommon practice for interviewees to share topics they would prefer. These questions were relevant to the news of the day – the president was asked about this debate performance as well as what he’d delivered for black Americans.”

“We do not condition interviews on acceptance of these questions, and hosts are always free to ask the questions they think will best inform their listeners,” she claimed.

Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt responded to the news by noting that the efforts by Biden officials to control the questions that were asked is definitely not normal.

“I’ve hosted on radio since 1990, conducted tens of thousands of interviews over the decades,” Hewitt posted on X. “Very common to get a request for topics that I’ll be raising. Not common but not unheard of to get a nudge from staff that the guest would like to discuss X, Y, or Z. I’ve never received a list of questions to ask. Never.”
