The actor John Cusack again caused a stir with extreme anti-Semitic and anti-Israel statements.
Since the October 7 massacre, he has been sharing posts calling for the destruction of Israel and containing anti-Semitic gore to an X following of 1.8 million.
In his feed, Cusack actively covers what is happening in regards to Israel's war on Hamas, and does so in a one-sided manner.
He celebrated the submission of the lawsuit against Israel to the International Court of Justice in The Hague, and at the same time criticized the Western countries for suspending funding to UNRA due to its involvement in the October 7 incident, and called the suspension of funding a "collective crime". In various posts he called Israel a "state of murder" " and insulted "Fuck Israel".
But these are not just opinions about today's events, but real blood plots and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. These range from comparing the Jewish people to white supremacy to denying the actions of Hamas. In addition, Cusack shares posts from other anti-Semitic users, such as those who call Netanyahu "Zionist pig" even mocks obituary notices of "Zions" - although he claims that retweeting is not agreement with the content.

Cusack even responds with bluntness and curses to those who argue against him both on the feed itself and in private messages.
"I'm not moving to the East because I want to send you pictures of children choking on blood," he wrote to one who suggested he give up his Western privileges, and "justice for all - or none," he wrote to another in a private message that she later shared.
Cusack has also demonstrated his anti-Semitism in the past.
Beyond the constant criticism of Israel in its military operations over the years, in 2019 he re-shared a post with a poster of a giant hand with a Star of David crushing people, and the caption "To understand who controls you, just find out who you are not allowed to visit."
After receiving a lot of criticism, he removed the post and claimed that a bot had taken over his account.

In response to Cusack's content, the Jewish organization Stop Antisemitism named him "anti-Semite of the week" because he "denied the rape cases of October 7, called Hamas a 'charity organization' and madly claimed that 'Hamas was funded by the Israeli government'."
In the link attached to the post his exploits are detailed and finally there is a link to his agent's email and a call to the public to demand that he stop representing him.
