Susan Sarandon slammed again for ‘anti-Semitic’ post

Hollywood actress and activist Susan Sarandon has been criticised for her new post about the Israel-Hamas war. Ms Sarandon posted a message on ‘X’ which read, “Don’t let anyone tell you it started on October 7th 2023”. It was posted one day after the 100-day anniversary of the attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists. Some people responded to the post describing it as “anti-Semitic”. “Imagine the good you could do if you just exhibited empathy for both sides of this conflict, and called out Hamas for its uniquely horrific actions, and its responsibility for setting off what ensued,” one user wrote. Ms Sarandon apologised last year for comments she made at pro-Palestine rally, where she declared American Jews “are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim" amid a rise in anti-Semitism.
