"I had to say something. It's not fair," @JohnLegend tells @MehdiRHasan why he spoke out in support of the Palestinian people. "They're clearly not being able to experience full rights that they deserve … We should hold [Israel] to a higher standard.”

The onus is on these Israel critics to propose a just & workable alternative. And in doing so they must also honestly take into account Israel's withdrawals from both S. Lebanon and Gaza.

I would be interested in the source of your knowledge about the very complex relationship between the Israelis and Palestinians. It dates back to the 1920’s, before there was “occupation” or even Israel. Do you think a free Palestine would not quickly become another Gaza?

I will vote for him every day.
How about the Arab world be held to any standards? Terrorism, gay rights, women's rights? This is laughable. Leftist idiots
He and his disgusting wife should be held to a higher standard
What an ignoramus . MLK spoke in support of Israel. John needs to go learn the Truth. Hamas is abusing the people in Gaza. Israel treats all people with dignity and respect.
Watches it all....great interview. Very impressed with @johnlegend

John Legend, blame the British for giving the Arabs any part of the Jewish homeland of Judea & Samaria. This created a plectocrthe PLO which has maltreatment its subjects. If Israel had this territory the Arabs would have had a much better life as all Arab do in Israel.
Living up to your name, thank you for your Humanity @johnlegend 🙏
