Pete Davidson on Israel-Hamas war

Davidson started his monologue by recognizing the "horrible images and stories from Israel and Gaza" that have been widespread in the media.

He then unveiled his own experience with tragedy, disclosing that his father, who served as a firefighter in New York City, lost his life in the 9/11 attacks.

"This week we saw the horrible images and images first. And I know what you're thinking, Who better to comment on it than Pete Davidson?" the actor and comedian began.

"In a lot of ways, I am a good person to talk about it because when I was 7 years old, my dad was killed in a terrorist attack. So I know something about what that's like," Davidson added.

He explained, "I saw so many terrible pictures this week of children's suffering — Israeli children and Palestinian children. And it took me back to a really horrible, horrible place."

"No one in this world deserves to suffer, especially not kids," the comic said, expressing his sympathy for the youngsters who are suffering as a result of the conflict.

Reflecting on a personal memory, Davidson shared, "After my dad died, my mom tried pretty much everything she could do to cheer me up."

"I remember one day when I was eight, she got me what she thought was a Disney movie. But it was actually the Eddie Murphy stand-up special Delirious."

He went on, "And we played it in the car on the way home and when she heard the things Eddie Murphy was saying, she tried to take it away, But then she noticed something for the first time in a long time, I was laughing again."

"I don't understand that. I really don't and I never will. But sometimes comedy is really the only way forward through tragedy," Davidson insisted.

Davidson concluded by saying, "My heart is with everyone whose lives have been destroyed this week. But tonight, I'm gonna do what I've always done in the face of tragedy, and that's try to be funny. Remember, I said try."
