British Pakistani Singer receives death threats for supporting Palestine.

No, it's far older than Hamas. Do your research.

By the way, getting rid of Hamas won't change anything, in fact, it could end up far worse for Israel if Hamas ends up disbanding. There is going to be a power vacuum, and simply put, the only group that is capable of filling that void is not Fatah, but the group "Islamic Jihad" who're the second largest group in Gaza. Right now, Hamas is the only one keeping even more radical groups from coming to power.

That's not to mention that Israel would end up having to occupy Gaza once again in order to keep it stable, on top of the fact that this would pretty much kill a two state solution altogether.

As for condemning Hamas, people are, but the problem is that no one is condemning Israel for using clearly made up, or lame excuses for the death of civilians. Let me remind you, out of the 1200 dead, over 800 are civilians, and if we were to accept Israel's excuse of human shields being used, I highly doubt that over 800 Palestinians were used as human shields. A few incidents seem plausible, but when the bodies start piling up, you have to question the excuses that're being thrown around.

Anyways, I'll reiterate, this has been a diplomatic disaster for Israel, there's even less support for Israel's offensive globally than there ever was before the conflict even began.

1. Islamic Jihad is moderate
2. Israel can't reoccupy Gaza so they make up a story of some 'radicals' seizing power
3. If there was an AQ substitute for Gaza Israel would love that, they would kill Palestinians and give Israel an excuse to attack Gaza

One Direction singer Zayn Malik weighed in on the Israeli-Palestinian crisis by declaring his support for one side over the other with the tweet "#FreePalestine."

The British-Pakistani boy bander, 21, who is also Muslim, received both praise and backlash from fans on opposite sides of the Gaza conflict after posting the tweet Sunday night.

Some angry social media users even went as far as suggesting Malik kill himself, while others have accused him of being anti-Semitic. Many One Direction fans took to Twitter-warring with each other.



Malik's message received over 150,000 retweets, and has been "favorited" just as many times.

While he is the first One Direction member to voice an opinion on the polarizing issue, Malik isn't the first high profile celebrity to comment.

@zaynmalik via Twitter Zayn Malik of One Direction tweeted '#FreePalestine' on Sunday. The message went out to his 13 million followers.
Selena Gomez caused a firestorm after posting an Instagram message July 18 which read, "It's about humanity. Pray for Gaza."

"Please pray for those families and babies today," she captioned the photo. "Please always remember what's important in life. It's not any of this. We are here to help, inspire and love. Be that change. #wearethenextgeneration.”

"And of course to be clear, I am not picking any sides," she added. "I am praying for peace and humanity for all!"

The 22-year old singer refused to take down her neutral post despite backlash — as some fans took her message as pro-Palestine, but Malik appears to be more deliberate about his stance.


Almost 24 hours later, his tweet remains on display for his 13 million followers.

Other celebrities who appeared to choose the same side — like Rihanna and basketball player Dwight Howard — quickly took down their "#FreePalestine" tweets.

Rihanna called her posting a "mistake," taking it down after eight minutes, and later wrote that she hoped for a "peaceful end to the conflict."

Howard also called his tweet a mistake and apologized for having “offended anyone.”

You should admire his courage for it takes a whole lot of it to make mockery of one's own self.

So no arrest in this case. Is this not double standard? Anyone can threaten a Muslim with impunity & no action is taken against them.

I remember Israel spokesperson saying they would never go back to pre 1967 border. And clearly Palestine is the weaker state here so they must accept it and try to live peacefully with Israel.

WTF??? so if you are weaker then me should i be grabbing your land and killing your children??? And you would expect me to absoloutly do nothing?? Is that your logical answer is??? Every dog has its days and trust me Israel's days are counted we have seen more powerfull then israel ever would be so they should fear for the day they are fallen, coz then they will face the same fate as jews faced under Hitler.
