“Elon Musk Gets Asked “Are You Anti-Muslim?” His Answer Sparks a Heated Debate”
Mehdi Hasan Slams Elon Musk After He’s Asked: “Are You Anti-Muslim?”
Piers Morgan: Let’s talk about Elon Musk’s interview with The Economist. A lot of headlines came from it, but there was a clip about Muslims that I want to play, given that you're Muslim.
Zanny Minton Beddoes: Are you anti-Muslim?
Elon Musk: I'm against people coming to a country with antithetical views.
I'm against rape and murder, and I'm against the imposition of rules and laws that are contrary to what we've come to accept in the West.
Piers Morgan: There was a lot of fallout from that. New numbers showed that the murder rate in England had dropped to its lowest in 50 years.
So this idea that Britain is being overrun, particularly by Muslims who are raping, pillaging and murdering everyone, isn't supported by the statistics.
Zanny then said it was irresponsible for someone with 240 million followers to spread things that aren't true.
Musk responded by calling her “a traitor to the West, plain and simple.”
What did you make of all this?
Mehdi Hasan: That's an understatement, Piers. It's outrageous, ridiculous and dangerous.
He knows perfectly well that when Elon Musk attacks someone, his followers can pile on. I've experienced it myself.
What's more interesting to me is the aftermath. This is the world's richest man who claims to support free speech and debate, yet whenever he gets even mildly tough questions, he melts down.
He rarely does tough interviews. Remember Don Lemon in 2024? Musk became furious over questions about his drug use and then canceled Lemon's show.
Now he's attacking The Economist, a mainstream publication, and calling its editor a traitor simply because she challenged his claims about British crime.
And on the Muslim question, Zanny deserves credit for asking it.
When someone asks Elon Musk, “Are you anti-Muslim?”, all he had to say was, “No.”
He could have said, “I'm against criminals and extremists.”
Instead, he says he's against people with “antithetical views” coming into the country, followed by, “I'm against rape and murder.”
That's an outrageously bigoted thing to say by the richest man in the world.
I'm glad she asked the question.
Yesterday we reported on jewish terrorists in the west bank laying siege to a Palestinian home starving the family inside.
Today they set the house on fire, burning the residents to death, and throwing stones on the road to prevent their rescue.

One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked.
The moment the tents of displaced people were bombed in the southern Gaza Strip, in the Mawasi area of Khan Yunis, killing more than 500 civilians.
A video that the world must never forget.

Syed Saddiq reveals how MPs and Ministers receive multiple “stacked pensions”.
Many people don’t realize what a “Stacked Pension” actually means.
When a regular civil servant like a nurse or teacher retires after 30 years, they receive only one consolidated pension.
But for politicians, the laws allow them to stack multiple pensions simultaneously for the different roles throughout their careers, despite serving just one term
For example:
• Lim Guan Eng: Eligible for 4 pensions (MP + Cabinet Minister + ADUN + Chief Minister)
• Hannah Yeoh: Eligible for 4 pensions (MP + Cabinet Minister + ADUN + State Speaker)
We shall abolish stacked pension scheme for politicians.
