Progressive actor Josh Gad rips fellow liberals for pushing anti-Semitism amid Israel-Hamas war

"Frozen" actor Josh Gad ripped fellow liberals for actions and rhetoric he deemed to be anti-Semitic following the Hamas invasion of Israel.

"I have always called myself a progressive," Gad wrote on the Threads social media platform. "The past 2 weeks have made me feel so desperately alienated & disheartened by what that seems to encompass."

"I’ll always stand for what’s right but to see people I’ve always identified with ripping down posters of hostages & say such horrific & uninformed things that truly resemble antisemitic tropes is very troubling to me & so many," Gad continued. "I stand with all those who want to protect innocent Palestinians. Why can’t that same attitude be expressed for Jews?"

Gad — who played the Olaf character in Disney's "Frozen" franchise — was responding to a post by progressive transgender activist Charlotte Clymer.

"It's been rather astonishing to watch just how badly much of the far-left is miscalculating this moment," Clymer said. "It has never been more clear how many of them are firmly ensconced in echo chambers, and it is doing them no favors. Quite the opposite."

Numerous liberals have been caught ripping down posters for Israelis who were missing or kidnapped by Hamas.

Over 300 celebrities signed an open letter to President Joe Biden thanking him for his leadership during the Israel-Hamas war and calling for the remaining hostages to be freed.

"Thank you for your unshakable moral conviction, leadership, and support for the Jewish people, who have been terrorized by Hamas since the group’s founding over 35 years ago, and for the Palestinians, who have also been terrorized, oppressed, and victimized by Hamas for the last 17 years that the group has been governing Gaza," the Hollywood elites said in the open letter to Biden.

"We urge everyone to not rest until all hostages are released," the letter reads. "No hostage can be left behind."

Earlier this month, "Stranger Things" actor Noah Schnapp slammed his followers on social media for siding with Hamas killing innocent Israelis, and he hammered progressives for being silent on atrocities committed by terrorists.

"I have also noticed a silence in social media like [I’ve] never seen before. The same people who love to jump on fashionable causes like supporting Ukraine and combatting climate change have been chillingly quiet," Schnapp declared. "The Jewish people are seeing your silence and we won’t forget it."

Kylie Jenner shared a now-deleted post from a pro-Israel account alongside the caption: "Now and always, we stand with the people of Israel!" The influencer lost approximately 800,000 Instagram followers in the two weeks after posting and deleting the pro-Israel message.

On Thursday, model Bella Hadid shared Instagram posts addressing the Israel-Hamas war.

"Forgive me for my silence," Hadid's post begins. "I have yet to find the ideal words for this deeply intricate and horrific past 2 weeks, weeks that have turned the world's attention back towards a situation that has been taking innocent lives and affecting families for decades."

"My heart is bleeding with pain from the trauma I am seeing unfold, as well as generational trauma of my Palestinian blood," said the daughter of Palestinian-American real estate mogul Mohamed Hadid. "Seeing the aftermath from the airstrikes in Gaza, I mourn with all the mothers who have lost children and the children who cry alone, all the lost fathers, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunties, friends that will never again walk this earth."

Hadid added, "I mourn for the Israeli families that have been dealing with the pain and aftermath of October 7."

"Regardless of the history of the land, I condemn the terrorist attacks on any civilians, anywhere. Harming women and children and inflicting terror does not and should not do any good for the Free Palestine movement," she continued. "I believe deep in my heart, that no child, no people anywhere, should be taken away from their family either temporarily or indefinitely."
