Jewish American actor Brett Gelman, who has overwhelmingly supported Israel since the beginning of the fighting, came to Israel. Gelman, 47, best known from "Stranger Things" and "Fleabag," shared his video with his 942,<> Instagram followers on Monday after landing in Israel.
"We came to Israel and as always it's an honor to be here," Gelman, who arrived with his fiancée, singer Ari Dayan, told the camera. "We will make sure to keep you updated on our trip, everyone we talk to and let's all learn together." Hello Israel. The people of Israel are alive," he wrote in the short text accompanying the video.

As mentioned, Gelman is a prominent voice in pro-Israel advocacy and often shares content online. He took part in the huge pro-Israel rally held on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., watched the horror film at a screening organized by Gal Gadot, and signed a celeb letter to TikTok in which they objected to the fact that the platform is not doing enough to combat rising anti-Semitism.

In addition, he is also behind the powerful post that went viral and was shared by Julianna Margolyes and Amy Schumer, in which he wrote, among other things: "If you shout 'genocide' but kept silent about the October 7 massacre - you may hate Jews. If you call for a ceasefire but not for the release of hostages, you may be hating Jews. If you oppose Israel's right to defend itself but say nothing about Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah and the ongoing rocket launches from Syria at the civilian population of Israel, you may be hating Jews."

"I feel betrayed in a way I never thought would ever be possible," he said on stage at a rally two weeks ago, speaking of the backing of "friends" when expressing support for Israel. "For most of the day, loneliness is unbearable. We see that these fake friends are nothing more than cowards."
