Woke Formula One Driver Visits, Condemns Wall Imprisoning Palestinians - Clearly Has No Idea Egypt Actually Built It
The Western Journal ^ | 11/14/2026 | V. Saxena

British Formula One racecar driver Lewis Hamilton proudly displayed his appalling ignorance to the world earlier this week while visiting the Rafah Border Crossing that separates the Gaza Strip from Egypt.

While there, Hamilton snapped a photo of himself standing in front of the border crossing and then shared it to Instagram alongside a screed about Israel’s alleged genocide in Gaza.

“It’s an injustice for people to being denied their freedom, their safety and their dignity,” Hamilton wrote in his now-viral Instagram post. “No human being should be treated as though their life matters less.”

“I saw walls stretching for miles, built to keep them in,” the stunningly misinformed Hamilton continued. “Standing there, outside what felt like an open-air prison, all I could think about was getting in to help.

As dumb as Hamilton’s social media post was — we’ll explain why in a second — it managed to get even dumber as it continued.

“At Rafah border, I saw food trucks lined up ready to go, but they’re regularly not allowed in or face major delays,” the racecar driver complained. “The first driver in line that I spoke to had already been waiting over 12 hours.”

“At the nearby logistics centre, I saw the hard work of the aid workers, but I also saw what gets rejected for crazy reasons. Sleeping bags, first aid kits, medical equipment, wheelchairs, even footballs for kids,” he added.

Hamilton concluded his diatribe by condemning… Israel.

“Israel needs to fulfil its obligations under the ceasefire and let the aid trucks in,” he complained. “No excuse.”

Amazing! It’s supposedly Israel’s fault that the Gazans can’t get into Egypt?

Lewis Hamilton is just another Dollar Store Obama. I quit watching F-1 as I can’t stand the sight of him.

So, In this case, instead of “Shut up and sing.” He needs to “Shut up and drive.”

LOL.

Exactly.

Nobody wants these people.

Not the Egyptians. Not the Jordanians. Not the Saudi’s.

No one!!!

No one is keeping tabs on this. It’s not a big issue in our MSM:

(2012) https://www.timesofisrael.com/egyptian-army-bus-ambushed-in-sinai/
(2013) https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/20/egyptian-troops-killed-car-bomb-attack
(2014) https://www.timesofisrael.com/egyptian-army-bus-ambushed-in-sinai/
(2015) https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jan/29/egypt-army-police-sinai-el-arish-sheikh-zuwayed-rafah
(2016) https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/3/19/egyptian-troops-killed-in-sinai-attack

And this list goes on and on.

Gaza is a stinking shit hole that has been used by shit heads to launch attacks for YEARS.

Do I blame the Israeli’s for wanting to give that place an enema? No.

But that said, the Israeli’s committed a PR disaster when they went into that place the way they did.

My dad is very accomplished and wise, and he once gave me some words of wisdom which apply to this situation. He said, in some situations “you can be right, and you can also be dead right.”

The Israeli’s are justified, what they are doing makes sense, BUT acting without giving full consideration to the consequences in Europe and North America, how this will impact their image, (((the political landscape))), etc. made them “dead right.”

You have weasels like this that will exploit this Gaza situation for their own benefit: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjr3zd4d8y5o

Israel is not an independent nation nor will they ever be since they lack the size in every aspect. They live by the good graces of Europe and North America, who sell them arms, conduct trade under extremely beneficial terms to them, allow for the free movement of their people, etc. When Israel does damage like this, the worms go to work to start damaging the framework of policies which allow Israel to prosper or even survive!

The damage done will last decades...

As to this gay Formula One driver. Just another ass clown (I don’t even know if that’s a pun?) using some cause to get his name in the papers. I guess beating the gay drum isn’t enough anymore?

Not only am I sick of Lewis Hamilton, but also the entire F1 scene. If you’re a fan of open wheel racing, you should be watching IndyCar instead. It’s great racing with much less of the elitist attitude, overly scripted races, and insane money.

If you’re a limousine liberal, results aren’t what matter, only intentions.

Hambone also is a world-renown climate authority and a disciple of the New Green Religion, but he clearly forsook his aversion to fossil fuels and CO2 for this trip because you can’t jump around from region to region like he has in Israel without private conveyance, which means he’s either leased a jet (he sold his in a fit of virtue signaling ecstasy) or he borrowed Kim Whoredashian’s G650.

So obviously he hates the Jews more than he hates CO2 ... at least this week.

Whenever I get the urge to spend three hours watching cars drive in left-hand circles, I go mow my lawn until I come back to my senses.

Yea, he’s a mixed-race guy who got *every* possible leg up in everyone’s haste to elevate a non-white Brit. It helped of course that he really IS as good as his record shows, but in F1 you not only have to have the right time with the right talent but get put into the best car of the era.

Then he decided that he was representative of the victim class and DEIed to the hilt, championing and bullying people into BLM demonstrations etc. Now he’s continued on to be a Meathead or Ruffalo of his field, always going far beyond the pale of idiocy to show his virtue signaling chops.

Lewis, we did not vote for a new president in this election. Looking good, Lewis.
