Netanyahu’s son claims Joe Rogan refused to have father on his show: ‘Years of antisemitic propaganda’
Benjamin Netanyahu’s eldest son on Friday claimed Joe Rogan refused to host the Israeli prime minister on his show and has promoted “years of antisemitic propaganda.”
Yair Netanyahu, 33, took aim at the popular podcaster after Rogan gushed over scandal-ridden Hunter Biden, arguing he could be president.
“Great wake up call for conservatives to remember Joe Rogan is not a conservative,” Netanyahu’s son wrote in a post on X.
“He gave platform to every single neo Nazi antisemite on this plant (sic), but he refuse to have my father on his show, because he knows that he doesn’t stand a chance against him, and all those years of antisemitic propaganda will go to waste.”
Representatives for Rogan did not immediately respond to The Post’s requests for comment.
On Wednesday’s episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, Rogan had played a clip from Biden’s bizarre interview with “Channel 5” host Andrew Callaghan, when the former president’s son discussed his illegal drug use.
“He’s smarter than his dad when his dad was young,” Rogan said of Hunter.
“And he could be president. How about that?”
Yair Netanyahu, a onetime podcaster himself, was quick to call out Rogan’s comments as proof that he isn’t a true conservative and accused the host of platforming antisemitism.
Rogan has found himself in hot water on the subject several times over the years.
Most recently, Rogan faced backlash after he hosted Darryl Cooper on his podcast earlier this year.
The self-styled historian has been accused of Holocaust revisionism and downplaying Nazi crimes.
Rogan brushed off his critics as “paranoid” Jews.
In 2023, Rogan made a jab on his podcast about Jews being “into money.”
“The idea that Jewish people are not into money, that’s ridiculous. That’s like saying Italians aren’t into pizza. It’s f—ing stupid,” he said.
Yair Netanyahu, who is known for coming to his father’s defense online, has his own fair share of controversies.
His Facebook account was slapped with a 24-hour ban in 2018 following a series of anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian posts.
“Do you know where there are no attacks, in Iceland and Japan. That’s because there are no Muslims,” he wrote in one post.
In another, he wrote: “There will never be peace with the monsters in human form known since 1964 as ‘Palestinians.’”
Earlier that same year, the prime minster’s son, then 26, was caught on video outside a Tel Aviv strip club drunkenly boasting about his father and making risqué comments about women.
