Soboroff Gushes Over Nobel Peace Prize Winner Who Defended Anti-Semitism, China

October 10th, 2026 12:02 PM

According to MS NOW Connect host Jacob Soboroff and his Saturday guests, the big takeaway three years after October 7 is that Israel and the United States are morally reprehensible countries. Such a conclusion led him to gush over Navi Pillay, who won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday. Naturally, Soboroff omitted her running interference for anti-Semitism and the Chinese Communist Party.

After analyst Ayman Mohyeldin condemned the U.S. for sanctioning the International Criminal Court on the day Pillay won the Nobel, Soboroff parroted the idea, “But he [President Trump] also talked about exactly what Ayman’s talking about right now, that the Nobel Peace Prize—of course, he was bitter that he didn't get it. The most preposterous thing, I think, that any of us could think about. But he talked about that, that the former ICC judge who led the U.N. inquiry that concluded by the way, that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, he was just railing against it. And the fact that he didn't get that Nobel Peace Prize, he called it ‘an indelible stain on Norway.’”

 

 

Putting Trump’s campaign to win the prize for himself aside, According to a whistleblower, when Pillay was the U.N. human rights chief, her agency handed over names of Uyghur dissidents to the Chinese government. While investigating Israel before October 7, one of her subordinates declared, “We are very disheartened by the social media that is controlled largely by the Jewish lobby or specific NGOs.” Pillay defended him.

However, the point of Soboroff’s segment was to blast the United States with a specific emphasis on Trump. Addressing founder of the Edward Said Library in Gaza, Mosab Abu Toha, Soboroff wondered, “What was it like to be in town with the president of the United States, has been such a supporter of this, of this conflict and Israel's role in it last night for you.”

Toha clarified he was not actually in Syracuse at the moment, but was more than willing to get in on the America bashing, “I mean, I think what is shameful and—is the role that the United States has played in massacring over 100 relatives of mine and my wife. The erasure of an entire city, of the refugee camp where I grew up in Gaza City, that's something that the entire world will never forget or forgive, and that the students here and everyone in the United States was appalled, are not appalled by the atrocities that Israel has been committing, not since October 7th, but since my grandparents and my great grandparents were expelled from their homes in Jaffa in 1948, because that's what we should talk about.”

He also insisted that “We should talk about our ancestors who were expelled from their homes and who were massacred even before Israel was created. So, it is very shameful that this is happening, and the students and everyone in America should be appalled not only by Israel's actions, but also by the United States unconditional support.”

Wars are ugly things, which is why it would have been better if Hamas not started one. The genocide allegation against Israel is slanderous, but it is factual when directed at the CCP. Pillay’s sense of “human rights” is completely backwards and MS NOW loves her for it.

JACOB SOBOROFF: But he also talked about exactly what Ayman’s talking about right now, that the Nobel Peace Prize—of course, he was bitter that he didn't get it. The most preposterous thing, I think, that any of us could think about. But he talked about that, that the former ICC judge who led the U.N. inquiry that concluded by the way, that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, he was just railing against it. And the fact that he didn't get that Nobel Peace Prize, he called it “an indelible stain on Norway.”

What was it like to be in town with the president of the United States, has been such a supporter of this, of this conflict, and Israel's role in it last night for you?

MOSAB ABU TOHA: I mean, I'm in DC right now, so I'm lucky because I'm not in Syracuse at the time he is there. I mean, I think what is shameful and—is the role that the United States has played in massacring over 100 relatives of mine and my wife. The erasure of an entire city, of the refugee camp where I grew up in Gaza City, that's something that the entire world will never forget or forgive, and that the students here and everyone in the United States was appalled, are not appalled by the atrocities that Israel has been committing, not since October 7th, but since my grandparents and my great-grandparents were expelled from their homes in Jaffa in 1948, because that's what we should talk about. 

We should talk about our ancestors who were expelled from their homes and who were massacred even before Israel was created. So, it is very shameful that this is happening, and the students and everyone in America should be appalled not only by Israel's actions, but also by the United States unconditional support.
