Gigi Hadid recently took to Instagram to express her displeasure with the labelling of Palestinians as terrorists as well as the banning of alternative voices in Israel. Many celebrities have expressed their support and solidarity for Israel or Palestine. In the same way as her younger sister, model Bella Hadid, Gigi has consistently supported Palestine. A shocking post from the supermodel appeared on her Instagram account on November 25. “Israel silences dissent by branding Palestinians, allies as terrorists” – Hadid was quoted as saying. The 28-year-old stated on her social media article, “Israel perceives any Palestinian as a “terrorist.” Anyone who supports Palestinian rights is labelled a “antisemite,” and any Jew who opposes the government’s conduct is labelled “self-hating.” In order to emphasise the war’s one-sided story, the celebrity went on to say, “even urging them to denounce their Judaism.”

“Israel sees any Palestinian as a "terrorist," Any person supporting Palestinian rights as an "antisemite," and any Jew that is opposed to the government's actions as "self-hating," — even telling them to denounce their Judaism. So…… pic.twitter.com/B3VDPMWZLL
So… except for Israel, everyone is lying and wrong?!! It would be funny if it wasn’t so nasty and terrible.” For those who are unaware, Bella and Gigi Hadid are linked to Palestine. Gigi’s father Mohamed Anwar Hadid was born into a Muslim Palestinian family in 1948. Yolanda Foster, Gigi’s mother, is a former supermodel as well as a reality TV personality. Many Hollywood celebrities have spoken out on the topic in recent months. Furthermore, there are rumors circulating on the internet that Gigi Hadid wrecked Leonardo DiCaprio and Bradley Cooper’s bromance, resulting in a feud between the actors. According to rumors, Leonardo DiCaprio & Bradley Cooper’s friendly paradise is having some difficulties with Gigi Hadid. According to speculations, Gigi can be spotted with Bradley Cooper following the supermodel & Leonardo split up after the media went crazy about their romantic relationship. However, a recent source has disputed those rumors and stated that everything is fine between the brothers.

For people who are unaware, Bella & Gigi Hadid are linked to Palestine. In 1948, her father, Mohamed Anwar Hadid, was born into a Palestinian Muslim family. Yolanda Foster, Gigi’s mother, is a former supermodel as well as a reality TV personality. Many Hollywood celebrities, notably Reese Witherspoon, Madonna, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Barbara Streisand, Jerry Seinfeld, Selma Blair, Natalie Portman, Justin Bieber, Gal Gadot, as well as Josh Gad, have gone on to speak out on the topic in recent months. Many of them were even cancelled because they made disparaging statements about neighbouring groups. Gigi and Bella have ancestors who are half-Palestinian and half-Dutch. The given names of Bella and Gigi are Isabella Khairiah Hadid and Jelena Noura Hadid, respectively. Gigi’s father and mother were reportedly forced to flee Palestine during the conflict in 1947 and 1949. Gigi’s father, Anwar Hadid, had expressed concern about the family living “under Israeli occupation.” The statement was written in 2015 when he spoke out about the incident and wrote an emotional note.
Gigi hadid calling an attempted murderer a “prisoner of war” while claiming Israel is “the only country that keeps children as POWs” while dozens of Israeli children are held captive in Gaza is certainly a choice pic.twitter.com/lRw3IyMYFz

1) Gigi Hadid is Palestinian, her father and his family were kicked out of their own home (right around his birthday I might add) by Israel during the Nakba and were later forced to migrate to the US. She knows about her country’s history more than anyone and she knows what… https://t.co/PO6k8nSIIl pic.twitter.com/4ec3yDTyfJ
