Several Hollywood stars, including Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Ruffalo, Ian McKellen, Cate Blanchett, and Tilda Swinton, have joined a campaign calling for the release of Marwan Barghouti, a convicted Palestinian terrorist serving multiple life sentences in Israel.

Barghouti was a senior Fatah leader linked to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, the terrorist organization responsible for numerous suicide bombings and shooting attacks during the Second Intifada.

Hollywood is being irresponsible and are turning a convicted terrorist into a human rights icon while erasing the victims of the attacks that led to his imprisonment.

In 1947, Iraq crowned its first-ever beauty queen.

Her name was Renée Dangoor and she came from Baghdad’s ancient Jewish community, which had called Iraq home for more than 2,000 years. She was crowned Miss Baghdad and later Miss Iraq at just 21 years old.

But within years, the world Renée knew began to disappear. As persecution of Iraqi Jews intensified, her family eventually left Iraq and rebuilt their lives in Britain.

Her story is a reminder of a part of Middle Eastern history too often forgotten: Jewish communities were once deeply woven into the societies of the region.

Another powerful moment from Rob Schneider on the Heretics Podcast, where he addresses the alarming rise in antisemitism, and says it is worse than anything he has witnessed in his lifetime.

Rob makes a critical point: when Jew-hatred becomes acceptable and a society begins scapegoating Jews, it is a warning sign of something much larger. Thank you, Rob, for speaking out and refusing to normalize it.

The 2025 FBI Hate Crimes report confirms it once again: Jews remain the most targeted group in America. Per capita, Jews were targeted at roughly twice the rate of LGBTQ+ Americans, more than three times the rate of Black Americans, and more than four times the rate of Muslims.

Antisemitism is surging, and Hollywood has helped normalize it. These numbers area a warning that Jew-hatred is real and that those who are silent enables hate. 

Hollywood has a responsibility to stand against antisemitism.
