Bill Maher, a noted Democratic donor and high priest of the Church of Anti-Theists, drew the ire of Twitter users Thursday evening after he compared the Islamic terrorist group Hamas to a “crazy woman.”

“Dealing [with] Hamas is like dealing [with] a crazy woman who’s trying to kill [you] – [you] can only hold her wrists so long before you have to slap her,” the host of HBO’s “Real Time” said in the offending tweet.
