BLM Called Out By Black Miss Israel Amid Israel-Hamas Conflict

A former Israeli beauty queen slammed Black Lives Matter for not supporting black people in Israel due to their silence on Hamas terrorists killing Israeli civilians.

Yityish “Titi” Aynaw, the first black woman to be crowned Miss Israel, said she was horrified by an alleged BLM-affiliated poster that featured the slogan “I stand with Palestine.”

The poster features an image of a hang-gliding humanoid and a Palestinian flag. Hamas deployed armed terrorists via hang-gliders to murder attendees of an Israeli music festival on October 7.

From Fox News:

“I just saw their post… for them supporting Palestinians. Let’s say it’s OK, but for them not saying anything about 1,400 civilians who were murdered by Hamas, and for them not saying anything about women who was raped by the terrorists, for them not saying anything when they heard that they’re slaughtering babies in Israel, and they say they care about Black people, they say they care about human rights — what about my rights as a Black woman in Israel?” she asked on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”

Aynaw said Israel is home to a large Black-Jewish community and that it was shocking to see the group fail to speak out against the dangers facing Black-Israeli lives.

When asked if BLM is a “fraud,” Aynaw replied they are at least “hypocrites.”

“If you support human rights, you’re supposed to stand with Israel,” she said.

“So for me, they don’t represent ‘Black Lives Matter.’ They don’t care.”

Per the New York Post:

“I am so shocked by the response of Black Lives Matter regarding the terror attacks here in Israel,” the 32-year-old said in a post on Instagram.

“I remember you screaming in the streets, ‘I can’t breathe.’ I want to inform you right now … [it’s Israelis] who cannot breathe.”

She invoked some 200 Israeli hostages held in Gaza — including babies, children, women, entire families and the elderly.

“They were kidnapped, raped by the terror organization Hamas … slaughtering their souls. Hamas is ISIS. Pray for us. Pray for Israel because we can’t breathe,” she added.

“These groups — BLM — need to learn their facts,” Aynaw told The Post from her home in Ramat HaSharon near Tel Aviv.

According to the NY Post, Even though BLM Chicago admitted “we aren’t proud of” the image after the fact, they added that they “stand with Palestine & the people who will do what they must to live free.”
