Egyptian YouTuber Youssef Hussein, a.k.a. Joe Show: I can’t blame Hezbollah for its collapse and failure to do enough for Gaza and Palestine – Because Egypt has effectively joined the ranks of the enemy.

Egyptian comedian and YouTuber Youssef Hussein, a.k.a. Joe Show, said in a March 9, 2025, interview with Al-Rabiaa TV (Iraq) that the entire idea of Hezbollah collapsed because it did not intervene sufficiently to help the people of Gaza and Palestine. 

However, he stated that he does not blame Hezbollah, because, as an Egyptian, his country has done nothing to support the Palestinians and is, in fact, part of the enemy’s ranks. He added that the reason it is “liberation movements” such as Hezbollah and Hamas fighting Israel, rather than the armies of Arab countries as in 1948, the 1960s, and the 1970s, is because the modern Arab states are post-colonial entities, whose armies were given a “functional role,” and not full-fledged sovereign states.
