A STRING of top Hollywood A-listers have signed a petition backing Israel and condemning Hamas.
Actors Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kelsey Grammer, Seth Rogen, Sylvester Stallone and Minnie Driver were among nearly 200 famous signatories urging the terror organisation to stop firing rockets into Israel and work towards peace.
Director Ivan Reitman, writer Aaron Sorkin and Roseanne Barr also signed the petition, which was published in the magazines Billboard, Variety and Hollywood Reporter.
It comes after other celebrities, including Penelope Cruz, Rihanna and Selena Gomez criticised Israel's response to the rocket attacks.
The petition - which asks Hamas to remember that 'Children are our hope, not our human shields' - was organised by Creative Community for Peace, a group opposed to economic and artistic boycotts of Israel.'

Good for them.
By the way, this thread needs some Minnie Driver pics.

I appreciate this. When are they going to come out and trash this president for the open traitor he is?
How many of these folks voted for the idiot? How many realize how anti Israel and the West he is? Do they realize he is ending their way of life as fast as he can? Do they address it?
It is nice what these folks are doing. There’s a whole lot more to take a stand on these days, and there simply aren’t folks who are standing up to it.
Kudos for this, and damnation for what goes unsaid.

Hollywood. One long chain of Beavis and Buttheads nudging each other. So busy being part of the ‘in crowd’ that they don’t pay attention to what they were for or against 15 minutes ago.

Good for them. I wouldn’t call any of those listed “top” stars today. Maybe 10-20 years ago for a few.
To: the scotsman
Top actors? Where have I been? Not at the movies.

LOL! That’s a good one. I’d like to know what goes on inside the mind that came up with this.
