On Thursday, Hannah Einbinder, the Emmy-winning actress, broke her silence following her arrest during a protest against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the United Nations in New York City. Released from jail after being arrested alongside other celebrities, including Susan Sarandon and Caleb Hearon, Einbinder condemned the Israeli leader as the "butcher of Gaza" and criticized the U.S. for allowing him to "freely enter our cities" amid ongoing bloodshed in Gaza.
In an Instagram story, she emphasized the importance of not confusing the spectacle with the reality, stating that genocide is the headline and it's time for it to end. She further elaborated on the daily atrocities committed by Israeli forces, such as settler attacks, home demolitions, and bombing of civilians, which often go unnoticed by the international press.
Einbinder also highlighted the U.S. government's responsibility in halting the violence, as they choose to welcome Netanyahu with open arms instead. "The fact that the orchestrator of all this bloodshed is roaming freely in our cities is an indictment of BOTH REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS who enable and protect architects of genocide like Netanyahu," she wrote.
She urged her followers to donate to Pal Humanity, a nonprofit organization supporting the people of North Gaza.
