What Rogan Said
During the episode with comedian Mark Normand, Rogan reacted to suspicious videos circulating online amid heightened Israel-Iran tensions. His response: claiming Netanyahu and his brother are dead.
As JFeed reports, Rogan appeared to buy into wild online conspiracy theories claiming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is dead, even suggesting his brother was killed in a recent missile strike.
His comments quickly gained traction across social media, where pro-Israel users accused him of echoing Iranian disinformation and veering into conspiracy theories.
The Context
The conspiracy has been building for weeks:
- March 13, 2026: Netanyahu’s “six finger” video goes viral; AI conspiracy explodes
- March 17, 2026: Netanyahu posts a new video amid rumors; Yair Netanyahu (usually posting 30-35 times/day) goes silent
- March 20-21, 2026: Rogan episode drops; clip goes viral
The context: AI-generated “proof of life” videos, the infamous “six finger” incident, and Elon Musk’s AI Grok fueling the fire by falsely labeling footage as AI-generated.
Why This Matters
Rogan is mainstream:
- 60+ million YouTube subscribers
- His show has been credited with shifting opinions on everything from COVID to politics
