Where are the celebrities posting for Israel?

The stories of kidnapped Israelis are at least as appalling as the Boko Haram case in 2014

One of the older hostages is Yaffa Adar, an eighty-five-year-old grandmother who cannot make it to the bathroom on her own. She was stolen from her bed by Hamas and driven on a golf cart by a group of Hamas terrorists. Footage of the abduction shows the sheer elation of these young men in their great military success at abducting a sickly, elderly grandmother. Her granddaughter spoke to me this week about the horror of thinking about her grandmother under Gaza without the basic medicines she needs to survive.

The families of the hostages of Israel have come together around a building in Tel Aviv which has been donated to them so that they have a place to meet and cry and wait. In Israel, the “Bring Them Home Now” movement is everywhere. The photos of the kidnap victims even loom over the deliberations of Israel’s Knesset.

Here is my question. Where is the international campaign? Where are the actresses? Where are the prominent influencers who aren’t Jewish? There have been posters put up outside Israel, but from London to New York these are more famous for being ripped down than for being displayed. So I repeat, where is the campaign? And why has it not caught on?

Well... one at least...

An article said celebrities are buying their diamonds from other places as they joined a boycott of an Israeli.

“The actresses include Salma Hayek, Sharon Stone, Whitney Houston, Halle Berry, Drew Barrymore, Brooke Shields, Andie Macdowell, and Lucy Liu.

The celebrities were contacted by the rights group Adalah and the New York based ‘Jews Against the Occupation’ and asked them to distance themselves from a corporation that supports the Zionist project.”

By the way, Salma Hayek is half Lebanese and half Spanish and is from Mexico. She was active in trying to get African kidnapped hostage girls released (separate story from Israeli one).

After that someone threatened to have Hayek’s own 7 year old daughter kidnapped in retaliation in 2015.

Another is Debra Messing who spoke at the DC rally supporting Israel on November 14th.

All her friends are probably leftists and that’s why they’re not speaking out. But she seems oblivious to that fact.

I presume that Meathead Reiner is too busy with his TDS to post any support for Israel?

Hollywood stars shun pro-Israeli diamond store
Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, Sharon Stone and Drew
Barrymore rejected use of their images on Leviev’s website.
Actresses refuse to be linked to ‘unethical’ business

Hollywood stars have called for their pictures to be removed from the website of a diamond company that is associated with settlement expansion in Israel and human rights violations in Africa.

The diamond stores owned by Jewish-American billionaire Lev Leviev had to remove pictures of several actresses after they complained of being linked to a company that funds settlements in the Palestinian occupied territories, a statement issued by the pro-Palestinian human rights group Adalah- New York said.

The actresses include Salma Hayek, Sharon Stone, Whitney Houston, Halle Berry, Drew Barrymore, Brooke Shields, Andie Macdowell, and Lucy Liu.

The celebrities were contacted by the rights group Adalah and the New York based ‘Jews Against the Occupation’ and asked them to distance themselves from a corporation that supports the Zionist project.

The organizations sent letters to the actresses and held negotiations with their representatives to inform them of the human rights violations Leviev is involved in in Palestine and South Africa. As a result the actresses demanded that pictures of them wearing his diamonds were removed from the company’s website.

“Unethical business”
In October, the ambassador of Oxfam International aid agency Kristin Davis demanded that the Leviev’s company remove her pictures from its website.

In June, UNICEF announced its refusal to receive any future donations from Leviev for his involvement in building settlements in the West Bank.

UNICEF justified its decision by stating that it does not receive donations from any parties in conflicts.

Has Mel Gibson said anything?

[subterfuge]

How about celebrities calling out ACTUAL Jewish people for supporting the Jew haters, otherwise known as DEMOCRATS? The CIA and DOJ, now controlled by DEMOCRATS, should have been aware of the October 7 attack but are too busy stomping on the rights of Americans.

[SMARTY]

‘Celebs’ are all unprincipled, spineless creeps who want to keep their jobs, and who have the intellectual horse power of your average tree slug.

[Sertorius]

Time to buy some diamonds, I guess.

[wildbill]

Yeah, everybody knows that Jews control the news media and especially Hollywood {snark} It is curious that the celebs seems to be holding to their far left positions and keeping quiet about the Hamas problem. Hypocrites.

“Earlier this week, Marlon Brando met with Jewish leaders to apologize for comments he made on Larry King Live, among them that “Hollywood is run by Jews.” The Jewish leaders accepted the actor’s apology and announced that Brando is now free to work again.” - Norm MacDonald.
