Actress Angelina Jolie on Wednesday night added more sorrow, rage and pain to many Israelis who have been living in an unimaginable reality for almost an entire month. After publishing a post in which she defined the atrocities of October 7 as terrorism and prayed for the hostages, Jolie changed her position yesterday and harshly attacked Israel, accusing it of deliberately bombing civilians, describing the suffering of Palestinians alone, and attacking world leaders who do not seek a ceasefire. Her comments drew backlash from netizens and Instagram influencers who called on their followers one after another to tell her our side.
"Angelina Jolie, she was very confused. Shocking post. Full of pre-Palestinian responses, urgently respond to her there," Corinne Gideon asked her many followers. "Alaq 'deliberate bombing of civilians! Gaza is becoming a mass grave!'" the actress was quoted as saying. "Ya live in the movie, they did a Holocaust for us here. Vomit on their hypocrisy." Gideon was not satisfied with this, and responded herself to Julie in her post in question: "Imagine waking up one morning and terrorists come into your house, kidnapping your children, raping them, abusing them, murdering them. This is our reality in Israel. More than 1,400 civilians were slaughtered, 40 babies were brutally murdered. So please stop being a hypocrite. Israel has the right to defend its people!"
The person who still sent the surfers to fight Julie was Einav Bublil. "Go to Ms. Angelina Jolie's post and respond nicely, without cursing, and explain to her what happened here on October 7th. You can also send her photos and videos privately. And, of course, report the post. Reason for reporting: False information. Please report en masse, all of them!"
"Angelina is cheeky and detached. You are privately invited to send her harsh pictures from Israel and explain what we went through. Let you understand what murdered innocents really are and also report this sketchy post," pastry chef Or Spitz joined the effort.
"Suddenly you're so ugly to me. Bye-bye, ugly. It's not just Brad who threw you out," Adele struggled to hide her anger at Spalov. "The videos must be distributed. This is a huge damage to hasbara. We can do hard and massive work, but then a story like this comes from a girl with millions of followers and it takes us back. We must release the videos to the world!" urged Maya Buskila to work on Israeli public diplomacy.
"Master Chef" judge and businesswoman Michal Ansky also activated the surfers. "Calling for help from my followers. Angelina Jolie, the influential one, published a post in support of Gaza. It is precisely in such an arena that our criticism is important. She must have been confused. Let's get her to fact-check."

"I used to love her. We parted like that. And for someone to send her our videos and horrors. Maybe Gal (Gadot) or Noa (Tishbi)?" suggested Yael Bar Zohar.
Rich Nicole Reidman was furious: "Go to Gaza. I thought you were smarter. Tired of everyone's hypocrisy!" TV presenter Yarden Harel also addressed Jolie's biased post. "It's so disappointing that Angelina Jolie, who in my life I've kept a smart woman who uses her power to help the world, is unilaterally and outrageously covering what's happening here. No word about the massacre we went through?! 'The conflict that has existed since 1948' – can't you even write that there is the State of Israel?! Rejects me at the hardest levels."
