• Miriam Margolyes delivers a frank address to the Council of Jews in Australia concerning the ongoing genocide taking place in Gaza.
• She explains why she is ashamed of Israel.
Hollywood actress Miriam Margolyes is widely known for her role as Professor Pomona Sprout in the renowned Harry Potter film series. The 83-year-old Jewish British actress, who later migrated to Australia, has also appeared in other children’s films such as ‘James and the Giant Peach’.
Known for her candid discourse off the silver screen, Margolyes commenced her recent online address on the situation in Palestine with:
”I have never been so ashamed of Israel, to me it seems Hitler has won”
“He’s changed us Jews from being compassionate and caring and do unto others as you would have them do unto you into this vicious, genocidal, nationalist nation perusing and killing women and children”
”I call upon all Jews to shout, beg and scream for a ceasefire!”
She concluded her online video by addressing the issue of Zionists who frivolously label pro-Palestinians as antisemitic:
“it is not ANTISEMITIC to have a different opinion on the wartime actions now”
