Ice Cube has hit back at Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, accusing the NBA star of being a Judas after he criticized the rapper and several other black celebrities for their anti-Semitic tweets which he called a 'troubling omen' for the Black Lives Matter movement.
In a scathing column published in The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday, Jabbar called out Ice Cube, NFL star DeSean Jackson and fellow NBA player Stephen Jackson for recent social media posts containing anti-Semitic messages, some of which promoted the controversial views of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
Jabbar referred to a series of tweets by Ice Cube last month that contained 'creepy symbols and images' implying Jews were responsible for the oppression of blacks.
He also criticized Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson who drew backlash earlier this month for sharing quotes attributed to Adolf Hitler and voicing support for Farrakhan.
Jabbar slammed the 'lack of massive indignation' over the posts, saying he was shocked to see little public outrage over displays of anti-Semitism amid the 'new Woke-fulness in Hollywood.'
'It's so disheartening to see people from groups that have been violently marginalized do the same thing to others without realizing that perpetuating this kind of bad logic is what perpetuates racism,' Jabbar wrote.
Ice Cube later fired back at Jabbar accusing him of selling out to write the take-down piece.
'Shame on the Hollywood Reporter who obviously gave my brother Kareem 30 pieces of silver to cut us down without even a phone call,' he tweeted on Wednesday.

“Super irony”!
It’s a “thing”...
Imagina a celebrity, a white one, calling all the white people his brothers. He’d be burned to the ground.
And ice cube’s best days are far behind him. He’s so old the first thing he bought with his riches was his freedom.
Yeah, can't be having a differing opinion from the prog party line, you are officially Mr. Judas Hitler of Islamophob, Hell, 66606.

He went to my alma mater 🤗👩🏻🎓 UCLA!

Finally! I've been waiting for over 40 years for this. Can't wait for what Iced Cube has to say next!
This racist clown needs to be melted.
The violence and misogyny of Ice Cube’s rap music has caused tremendous damage to the black community.
:)
The roasts are not nearly the same without him. He and Jeffrey Ross were the only reasons to watch them. Stupid jerk overdoses because he didn’t become famous enough.
And with kids.
boy was he funny though :-)
His roast of Larry the Cable Guy had suicide watch written all over it.
IceCube is a long time filthy- Farrakhan fan.
I’m with Kareem on this one.
Kareem to Ice Cube -
“hey frozen block of water head - come on by and we’ll spar over this. OK?? Yeah??”
Somehow I don't believe it's worth the time trying to understand what's going on.
Thanks in advance.
You mean in the way he couldn’t except now he was so famous? I agree.
but it still was a really funny roast. Larry the high school diploma. Larry the dentist. :)
A thug in support of a bigot.
