The faith in humanity stands shaken once again as innocent lives are lost to twisted faith and political propaganda. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prepared the Jewish State for a “long and difficult war” on Sunday as his government responded to the unexpected assault from Hamas terrorists, which has claimed the lives of 600 Israeli citizens, the largest and the deadliest terrorist attack on the Israeli soil in five decades. 

“We will restore security to the citizens of Israel and we will win,” declared Israel’s cabinet, invoking Article 40 Aleph, marking the nation’s first formally declared war since 1973. Numerous celebrities worldwide have reached out in solidarity, condemning the bloodshed and seeking peace. Retired NFL legend Tom Brady recently took to his Instagram account to share his perspective on the prevalent crisis.

“It commands deep understanding, context, and nuance – what I do know is hateful acts of terrorism like these are never justified,” wrote 51-year-old Hollywood actor, and film producer, Dwayne Johnson. The mass murders and kidnappings in Israel that resulted in the declaration of war have led to the loss of innocent lives which has left Johnson like many other celebrities including Tom Brady, heartbroken. “The growing loss of innocent Israeli and Palestinian lives is heart-wrenching as this war escalates to immense proportions,” said the retired professional wrestler.
