Actor Michael Douglas visited an Israeli kibbutz that was hit hard in the Oct. 7 Hamas attack that sparked the current Israel-Hamas war, and met with Israeli president Isaac Herzog.
Actor Michael Douglas on Sunday paid a solidarity visit to an Israeli kibbutz that was hit hard in the Oct. 7 Hamas attack that sparked Israel’s war against the Islamic militant group. Douglas met with members of Kibbutz Be’eri and visited burnt-out homes destroyed in the Oct. 7 attack. Be’eri was among the hardest hit communities, with roughly 100 people killed and 30 others taken hostage.
He also met with Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, who presented the actor with an Israeli dog tag necklace and small pin of a yellow ribbon — symbols of solidarity with the dozens of hostages who remain in Hamas captivity. 'It’s a very difficult time. You sense the deep shock of this whole experience,' Douglas said, expressing hope that the hostages would be released soon.
Douglas also lashed out at anti-Israel protesters on American campuses — claiming that many have been subject to 'brainwashing.' 'When you try to talk to many of them, there is no education. There’s no knowledge,' he said. Douglas is the latest in a line of American celebrities and politicians who have visited Israel and toured the southern area near the Gaza border since Oct. 7.
