Dwayne Johnson And Justin Bieber Speak Out Against Israel-Hamas Conflict

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza, which erupted when the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, has resulted in over 1,600 casualties and numerous injuries on both sides. Amid this escalating tension, several celebrities are using their voices to express their concerns. Hollywood luminaries, notably Dwayne Johnson and Justin Bieber, have now expressed their support for Israel.

Dwayne Johnson took to his Instagram account and wrote, "I’m heartbroken, angry, and sickened by the brutal murders and kidnapping of Jewish people through the horrific acts of the Hamas terrorist group. The growing loss of innocent Israeli and Palestinian lives is heart wrenching as this war escalates to immense proportions. I don’t pretend to know everything about the complex conflict in the Middle East. It commands deep understanding, context, and nuance – what I do know is hateful acts of terrorism like these are never justified. I condemn and denounce terrorism, and in this devastating moment, my heart goes out to all the innocent victims and families grieving for their lost loved ones. I pray for compassion and resolve. I pray for all innocent lives (sic)."

Justin Bieber took to his Instagram stories and wrote, "Truly hurting for both my Israeli and Palestinian friends. I’m pretty sure we all instinctively know evil when we see it. To villainise all Palestinians or all Israeli people to me seems wrong. I’m not interested in choosing sides, but I am interested in standing with the families, who have been brutally taken from us (sic).”
