Mia Khalifa Takes A Stand Against Offensive Joke, Calls Out ‘Genocidal Rapists’
Meanwhile, in a shocking development, a pro-Israel Twitter account, named The Mossad: Satirical, Yet Awesome, shared a disturbing image of Mia Khalifa. In the manipulated image, Khalifa is depicted against a backdrop of Israeli Occupation Forces brandishing weapons. The account, usually satirical, temporarily shifted its focus to share what it claimed to be real-time information during a conflict.
Responding to the offensive image, Mia Khalifa, an advocate for the Palestinian cause, strongly condemned the post on Twitter. Quoting the tweet, she expressed her disgust, specifically labeling the perpetrators as “genocidal rapists.” Khalifa did not mince words in her response and also criticized the rhetoric, highlighting her stance against what she perceives as a safe haven for sexual offenders in Israel.
