Singer Billie Eilish is under attack for sending a cordial message to Israel and Israeli viewers.

Eilish, who recently released her newest album, "Happier Than Ever," invited her Israeli Instagram followers to listen in, saying, "Hi, Israel."

Anti-Israel activists from the US and around the world were quick to respond.

Some of the commenters called her "racist" and an "Israel supporter," while another called her an "occupier of Palestine."

One person wrote, "Good morning, I just want to remind you that Billie Eilish is a racist and an Israel supporter.Anti-Israel activists from the US and around the world were quick to respond.

Marxists thrive on social media weaklings.

I’m sure. She sang a song at the virtual Democrat convention of 2020. She told us to vote like our life depends on it, because it does. The implication being, we better vote Democrat if we value our lives.

And no such country as Palestine - just an area where trans-Jordanians hung out.

No fan of Eilish but this is ridiculous. But just wait. Soon, if you say, “Hello, America” at some places, you will be treated like this.

She got called out by the Pink Mafia for a video she did where they accused her of acting lesbo.

It is fun to see them eat their own.

She is, but she has an amazing voice. Really extraordinary talent.

I like some of her music.

Just shut up and sing, Billie.

I didn't have much of an opinion of Ms. Eilish other than I saw her on Austin City Limits and wasn't enthralled with her songs or performance. After this and depending if she folds or holds on to what she says I may have a differing attitude toward her. My bets is that she will fold like a bunch of stacked cards.

From last part of Wikipedia bio....

Eilish was raised as a vegetarian, and is a regular advocate on social media for animal rights and veganism, and among others has criticized the dairy, wool and mink fur industries. In 2019, she won a PETA "Best Voice for Animals" award for her online activism.

In March 2020, Eilish encouraged fans online to register to vote for the 2020 US presidential election. In August 2020, she performed at the 2020 Democratic National Convention and announced her endorsement of Joe Biden's presidential campaign.

I love it when the left east their own. Not a big fan of Eilish — her music is pretty bland (she’s sort of being marketed as a femail Marylin Manson.)

She has angered the hive mind.

She’s the singer of the theme song for the latest James Bond movie ‘No Time To Die’ which it’s release was delayed because of Covid.

Hitler was a big lefty. BLM is national socialism with a different supposed “master race”. If Hitler were born black, he’d be a BLM activist.

Y-you mean, they’re not just against the “occupation” and for a two-state final solution?
