Glitz, glamor, red carpets… and Palestine.
At last night’s @TheEmmys, some celebs couldn’t resist hijacking the spotlight with anti-Israel stunts.
From Javier Bardem’s keffiyeh show to “Free Palestine” shout-outs, here’s a roundup of the worst. 🧵

The “biggest attention seeker” award? Javier Bardem. He wore a keffiyeh, accused Israel of “genocide,” and cited that dodgy “genocide scholars” group where anyone can join for $30. Real scholarly, Javier. 🙄

Bardem also told @Variety he “cannot work with anyone who justifies or supports the genocide.” Translation: no Israelis. No Jews who support Israel. That’s not activism—it’s straight-up cultural boycott & discrimination.

Actress Hannah Einbinder won Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy. A Jewish actress herself, she used her Emmy stage to curse U.S. immigration officials and shout “Free Palestine!” Determined to cover every trendy cause in one go.
5/
Einbinder and others wore the red-hand pin. Media outlets like the @nytimes spin it as a “ceasefire” symbol. Israelis know better: it’s a not-so-subtle nod to the lynching of IDF soldiers in Ramallah 25 years ago, where murderers posed with bloodied hands.
6/
Bottom line: Last night’s Emmys weren’t just about TV. They became another platform for celebrities to virtue-signal with anti-Israel rhetoric – cheap applause lines that come at the expense of truth & Jewish lives.
