Controversial British broadcaster Piers Morgan is facing global outrage after he crossed all limits and committed Islamophobia during an interview with a Muslim guest on his show. Angry netizens are calling him a ‘White supremacist’ and urging London’s Metropolitan Police to take action against Morgan under hate crime.
Morgan, who has been routinely facing allegations of brazen biases in favour of Israel, had invited a Muslim guest on his show to discuss the conflict in the Middle East. His guest Abdul Wahid asked Morgan why so many women were embracing Islam. To which, the pro-Israel TV presenter revealed his Islamophobia by saying, “Becase they would want to be oppressed.”
Morgan declaring Muslim women oppressed and implying that Islam was a regressive religion conclusively proved that the TV presenter had been a closet Islamophobe all along. As expected, netizens took to social media to register their outrage asking how a TV presenter would be allowed to commit a hate crime in the United Kingdom with impunity.
Here’s how they reacted;
Thank you so much, @piersmorgan. I just watched your interview with @AbdulWahidHT and I’m extremely appreciative that you finally exposed your true-self. You’re nothing but a hypocrite who doesn’t allow his pro-Palestinian interlocutors to finish their response; meanwhile you sit…

– Muslim women *want to be* oppressed.
– Has an issue with Muslim state armies intervening in Gaza because it’s “jihad”.

@piersmorgan if you said this about Jewish women what would you think would happen to you? That being said, Jewish Halakha law considers homosexuality to be a sin. Do you condemn it ? A woman cannot get a divorce without a Gett from a man, do you condemn it ? pic.twitter.com/srfREF9QDJ

Many are asking the Metropolitan Police to act against Morgan by immediately arresting the TV presenter, who has built his career by using his media platform to vilify individuals and the religion (Islam in particular).
