Brett Gelman doesn’t see anything in Netflix costar Noah Schnapp‘s views on Israel that warrants an apology … and he’s not afraid to speak his mind about what’s going on in Gaza.
We got the “Stranger Things” star at LAX and our photog asked him about Noah sharing a video restating his position on the Israel-Hamas War.
Brett says he actually liked the viral photos of Noah with stickers reading “Zionism is sexy” and agreed with Noah calling out Hamas as a terrorist organization.
BG goes even further … telling us anyone who is not pro-Israel is consciously or subconsciously being antisemitic.
To be clear, Brett says he’s not blindly for everything that’s going on in Israel, acknowledging there are some issues just as there are in every country and telling us he’s not a fan of Benjamin Netanyahu … but Brett says he supports Israel and the Israeli people.
Brett says Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas attacks … he says he’s been over to Israel recently and there are still being rockets launched by Hamas, who he also accuses of using civilians as human shields.
Noah’s message was about unity, hope and peace … and Brett says he’s staunchly against the death of innocent Palestinians, but wonders why those deaths are being blamed on Israel and not Hamas.
It’s rare to see a celebrity being so open about the Middle East these days … but Brett’s not shying away.
Bottom line for Brett … everyone in Israel wants peace, and they aren’t the ones who started this war.
