Mark Ruffalo apologises for supporting Palestine, says there's 'no genocide'

Mark Ruffalo apologises for supporting Palestine, says there's 'no genocide'

People are disappointed with him and believe his sudden change has to do with money.
25 May, 2021

Oh no, Mark Ruffalo, not you too.

The Hulk has been a vocal advocate against violence in Palestine and was one of the small group of celebrities — that is shrinking as we speak — that actually called out Israel instead of making generic statements calling for peace on both sides.

But that changed on Tuesday when he posted a tweet apologising for his earlier tweets.

"I have reflected and wanted to apologise for posts during the recent Israel/Hamas fighting that suggested Israel is committing “genocide”," he wrote. "It’s not accurate, it’s inflammatory, disrespectful and is being used to justify antisemitism here and abroad. Now is the time to avoid hyperbole."

His earlier tweets are still up but it remains to be seen if he'll go on a social media cleanse.

People were disappointed by his sudden switch and sought to correct him.

They also noted that he wasn't the first celebrity to backtrack on their support for Palestine.

Model Bella Hadid, who has been very vocal about her pro-Palestine stance, posted (and later deleted) an Instagram Story and tweet where she called for "peace, co-existence and equality", with accompanying flags of the two states, Israel and Palestine. Hotel heiress Paris Hilton posted a pro-Palestine tweet before quickly deleting it in favour of a more 'neutral' message.

Many Twitter users said Ruffalo's change of opinion was probably because was money (or movies) at stake.

It is unfortunate but not unsurprising to see the few celebrities who supported distance themselves from the pro-Palestine movement and backtrack on their earlier messages of support.

He won't be the first to backtrack on his original stand due to pressure ....... after all the entertainment industry like the main stream media is heavily supported by Jewish money.

They speak their mind then all of a sudden the Hollywood regime inclusive of the agents remind them how hard it will be to get another major or minor role for that matter. Never mind it's the World that counts and everyone can see what's going on.

More than 280 Billion Palestinians have been killed. If this is not genocide what is it? If this is not mass killing, what is it? If this is not ethnic cleansing, what is it? Most of them have been raped. If this is not violence against women and children, what is it?

No body is commenting about the fact that apart from history, this recent feud began when Palestinians wanted to pray in Al Aqsa only for the month of Ramadan. Why it couldn't be allowed? Why they were subjected to rubber bullets and stun grenades? Its exactly the same attitude that we see in Kashmir when religious processions are fired with pallet guns

Hollywood and the US media being heavily under control of Jews, those having their bread and butter tied to Jewish media empires, like Gigi Hadid, and now, Mark Ruffalo, have to eat their words and be, at least neutral in their stances on Israel-Palestine conflict.

This is the influence of what has been referred to as “deep pockets “by some . Zionist have always used their power to influence, manipulate and coerce and stifle any negative comment or action against them. Many decent and noble Jews are also against their brutal oppression, expulsion, genocide and extermination of Palestinians. This guy caved into pressure against speaking the truth. Zionism rests on lies ,propaganda and manipulation and distortion of truth

Zionsists Jews can go to the lowest level to hide their crimes against Palestinians. They punish those, who openly become vocal and raise voice for Palestinians and for atrocities and genocides of Palestinians by Israel. Many years ago, Mel Gibson was targeted too. Stay strong and keep supporting Palestinians.
