Actress Debra Messing said anti-Israel activists’ silence on Iran<\/a> is “the boldest example of hypocrisy.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The fact that the pro-Palestinian people are silent about that is the boldest example of hypocrisy,” Messing said<\/a> on the “Being Jewish with Jonah Platt” podcast Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Messing made the remarks as she discussed her advocacy following the Oct. 7<\/a> Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel and her decision to speak out publicly on Israel and broader Middle East issues.<\/p>\n

She framed her comments around what she sees as a lack of consistency from anti-Israel activists that have been specifically vocal against the country.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

“I have to speak out,” Messing said, explaining her decision to weigh in publicly on geopolitical issues.<\/p>\n

She pointed specifically to Iran<\/a>, raising concerns about what she described as a lack of attention from activists.<\/p>\n

“What\u2019s happening in Iran?” Messing asked. “It\u2019s actually thrilling to see, because we\u2019ve all known that it was a fraud.”<\/p>\n

“And now they have proved it with their silence,” she said.<\/p>\n

Her remarks came as part of a broader reflection on how her advocacy has shifted since Oct. 7, which she described as a turning point.<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s absolutely no option. We have to get out there and defend Israel, defend the Israeli people,” Messing said.<\/p>\n

She said she initially approached social media as a space to educate and reform.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to put out information about Israel, about our history\u2026 about Hamas, about the IRGC,” she said. “It became very clear very quickly that that was impossible.”<\/p>\n

Messing also described the personal toll of the backlash she had received online.<\/p>\n

“As soon as I started defending Israel and being a proud Jew\u2026 the kind of comments that I get, they are so deranged and hurtful and painful,” Messing said.<\/p>\n

“My first instinct is always to defend myself and to clarify my position,” she said.<\/p>\n

The actress also reflected on her upbringing, recalling that she often felt unsafe expressing her Jewish identity as a child and concealed it in school.<\/p>\n

“I learned to not talk about being Jewish,” she said.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve never felt safe in my entire life until now.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
