Gal Gadot, an Israeli actress known for her role in 'Snow White,' has expressed her unwavering support for Israel during its conflict with Hamas. Shocked by the backlash against her statements following the October 7 massacre, she emphasized the importance of speaking up in light of the horrific events. Despite her usual reluctance to delve into politics, Gadot felt compelled to advocate for the hostages and condemned the injustices faced during the violence. Her Walk of Fame ceremony faced disruption from anti-Israeli protesters, illustrating the divisive atmosphere surrounding her statements.
I was shocked by the amount of hate, by the amount of how much people think they know when they actually have no idea, and also by how the media is not fair many times. So I had to speak up.
After October 7th [2023], I don't talk politics - because who cares about the celebrity talking about politics? I'm an artist. I want to entertain people.
I stand with Israel, you should too. The world cannot sit on the fence when these horrific acts of terror are happening!
But on October 7th, when people were abducted from their homes, from their beds, men, women, children, elderly, Holocaust survivors, were going through the horrors of what happened that day, I could not be silent.
