‘Forgive Me For My Silence’: Bella Hadid Speaks Out About Israel-Hamas War

Oct 27, 2023 ·

Bella Hadid, the internationally renowned fashion model and social media star, has become a vocal advocate for peace in the Middle East amid the recent war between Israel and Hamas.

Over the past week, Hadid has used her platform to call for an end to the violence and to express her solidarity with Palestinians and her opposition to Israeli military action. She has also emphasized the need for Palestinian rights and for an end to occupation and oppression of Palestinians.

Hadid has shared several posts on Instagram calling for peace and expressing her empathy for Palestinians during this time of conflict. She also spoke out against the airstrikes that had killed more than 200 civilians. As Hadid wrote in one post, “I stand with Palastinians [sic] and against this unacceptable brutality and injustice.”

In addition to her social media activism, Hadid took part in a protest outside of the Israeli consulate in Los Angeles last Thursday. She joined a small group of demonstrators to show her support for the Palestinian people. During the protest, Hadid said, “My heart is broken for Palestine. No amount of words can express the pain I feel for the innocent lives being taken every day. I stand in solidarity and pray for justice and peace to prevail.”

Hadid’s activism has been praised by many as she continues to use her celebrity status to raise awareness about the conflict. Her strong stance on the issue has inspired others to speak up and take action.

Although the current ceasefire agreement has brought some respite to the region, the underlying issues have not been addressed. The ongoing tensions between Israel and Palestine remain, and it will take considerable effort from all sides to bring about lasting peace. By continuing to speak out, Bella Hadid is showing the world that change is possible and demonstrating how powerful a single voice can be.
