Simon Cowell is used to heaping abuse on strangers, not taking it from them.
The former American Idol judge made a fortune by mocking the singing abilities of the Fox show's contestants. Now, Cowell is getting nasty messages from strangers, but the stakes are far higher.
Cowell gave $150,000 to the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces last year, but the donation is only now hitting the news cycle, according to YNET News.
As a result, Cowell began receiving images of dead Palestinian children on Twitter and has been accused of helping Israel invade Gaza.
One of the tweets said Cowell has "blood on your hands," while another comment included a picture of a father holding his dead baby and read: "You donated money to Israel to do this. Now imagine this was your child.
A spokesman for Cowell, who is Christian, declined to comment on the matter to YNET News.

Good for Simon. My donation was a fraction of a fraction compared to his. Next payday, I see about another.

The Islamofascist-loving, Nazi Jew Haters are on a roll. I can’t believe Adolf Hitler still has a fan club all these years after WWII.

It’s so yesterday to help Israel; these days all the glitterati are bashing the Jews and cheering for, and funding, Middle Eastern terrorism.
It’s called The Obama Effect.

Always liked Simon. He was the only one who told the contestants the truth on American Idol. Very funny guy. Go Simon!

When he was on that show with Paula Abdul, he was the honest one. And in reel/real life, one is going to get criticism even nastier than Cowell’s if one is auditioning. In real/reel life they can be cruel; however, I loved Paula Abdul for not commenting on lousy performers. She had a good heart.
