Noah Schnapp has come under attack for the most recent Instagram post concerning the Israel-Hamas conflict, which he posted on October 11, 2023. “As a Jewish American, I am scared,” Noah stated in an excerpt from his long speech condemning the Hamas attack. I’m worried about my Israeli brothers and sisters, who have been brutally targeted by Hamas.”According to Ethnic Celebs, Schnapp is Jewish with Russian Jewish lineage on his father’s side and Moroccan Jewish descent on his mother’s side. As reported by CBS, on October 7, 2023, Hamas militants invaded Israel with thousands of rockets as well as troops, abducting and murdering over 1,000 people.

“I hope we can agree that Hamas are a recognized terrorist organization: they don't represent the Palestinian people when they value murdering Israelis more than protecting their own. You either stand with Israel or you stand with terrorism. It… pic.twitter.com/wK2195nbL4
In response, the Israeli government imposed a “complete siege” on the Gaza Strip, a coastal enclave existing under a 16-year blockade, and murdered nearly 1,000 civilians in retaliation. People are furious that Noah just chose Israel’s side without learning about Palestine’s history, according to Variety. While his initial remarks and thoughts were neutral, Noah Schnapp also remarked on the hatred he encountered from Palestinian backers for sharing a photo of an innocent girl who died as a result of the Hamas attack. People were angered by Noah’s terrorism remarks, saying he failed to acknowledge the years of captivity and lives sacrificed in Palestine, according to The New York Post.
Noah Schnapp Comments On The Israel-Palestine Conflict Have Sparked Online Debate
Noah Schnapp was born on October 3, 2004, in New York, according to People. His mom and dad, Karine and Mitchell Schnapp raised him in Reform Judaism his entire life. ” Schnapp has Russian Jewish descent on his father’s side and Moroccan Jewish descent on his mother’s side, according to Ethnic Celebs. Noah celebrated his Bar Mitzvah in Israel, and both of them are from Montréal, Québec. On October 11, 2023, Noah Schnapp posted on the internet to voice his solidarity for Israel while discussing his ethnic background and the Hamas attack. “As a Jewish American, I’m anxious,” remarked Noah Schnapp on Instagram. “I’m afraid for my Israeli brothers and sisters who were viciously irrationally attacked by Hamas.” I am saddened to witness the horrible slaughter of innocent children, women, as well as soldiers defending themselves. Like many others, I want peace among the Palestinians and the Israelis. Let us call a finish to the hyperbole and side-splitting. Instead, we must recognise that we are all fighting terrorism toget her. “Select humanity over violence.” From Natalie Portman to Dwayne Johnson, Schanpp followed a number of prominent individuals who have spoken out against the acts of violence against Israel, but he took a step further, explicitly calling out supporters for their pro-violence views.

“I just shared a remarkable photograph of a young girl whose life was unlawfully snapped by Hamas at a music festival,” Schanpp stated in a follow-up email. “I was met with remarks like ” nobody cares, free Palestine’ and ‘She deserved that, as well as every Israeli terrorist deserved that – Free Palestine.'” I am appalled by the excuse and enjoyment of a young girl’s death. Have people gone insane??? STOP!” This is just one instance of many posts, gatherings, and petitions that have been signed intending to rationalise the atrocities committed against these innocent Israeli individuals,” he went on to say. You need not happen to be Jewish or Israeli to recognise that THIS is terrible. You only have to have empathy as well as decent sense. Schnapp also criticised “the silence on the internet,” adding that a lot of individuals who have utilised their social media accounts to support Ukraine or climate change are yet to tweet about Hamas’ attack on Israel. People were angered by Noah’s terrorism comment, saying he failed to recognise the many years of blockade and lives shed in Palestine, according to The New York Post.

Noah Schnapp is fearing for his life in his Beverly Hills mansion in America, but he interestingly enough did not fear for his life when he was throwing party’s and going out every night only mere months ago in Israel.
