When celebrities publicly support Gaza, even if they mean well and are trying to stand up for innocent people, it often ends up helping the wrong side — especially the terrorists in charge.

Yes, ordinary people and children in Gaza have suffered a lot, especially from Israeli attacks. But here’s the thing: their own rulers, like Hamas, have done even more damage to them. These groups provoke violence, then hide among civilians, so that when retaliation happens, it’s the people — not the militants — who pay the price.

When someone like Pep Guardiola speaks out for Gaza, it sends a signal. And regimes like Iran’s use it for propaganda. They show their people, “Look! Even famous Westerners are against Israel, so our policies must be right!” It strengthens their grip on power and manipulates public opinion.

That’s why I think celebrities should be more careful. If you don’t understand the local power dynamics — who’s actually in control, who’s using civilians as shields — then your support might unintentionally empower the oppressors, not the oppressed.

It’s not about staying silent — it’s about doing your homework before you speak.
