The Israel-Hamas war is not seeing any progress toward a ceasefire, as the war affects Gaza civilians every day. While Israel is dragged into a court of law for committing genocide, the supporters of the Zionism cause, like the ‘Stranger Things’ star Noah Schnapp, are getting heavy vitriol online.
Since the war broke out between Hamas and Israel in October 2023, Noah Schnapp has released a statement to stand in solidarity with the affected Israel and Gaza citizens. However, the actor has also liked posts that make a mockery of the Palestinian struggle. Recently, he released a video to explain his statement, but he is still under fire as the former Fifth Harmony singer, Lauren Jauregui, has condemned Noah’s half-baked apology video.
