She used her platform to express empathy for the innocents on both sides. Saying she "both sides" the issue is just as vague bro.
I don't entirely agree with her statement either but it's not something to get ouraged about in my opinion.
If you think different do you.

bro its fre palestine stop the genocide till its backwards but that is a fact

you can support palestine and want to end the occupation without excusing hamas actions

and before you say its a retaliation for what israel did, the thruth is that its convenient for both of the LEADERS (not genpop) of these sides to cause a more inflammatory situation

not to excuse the response from israel, considering the disporopotionate power levels of the 2 sides there were more ethical ways to handle the situation

The internet is one thing but you seriously can't believe there's more people that pretend to be outraged just for the sake of it than there are actual people in the world that care. The outrage is proportional to the crime which in this case is genocide. Some people get frustrated because it should be an easy concept to grasp but it's a complicated subject to explain so that doesn't make things easy.

Imagine if someone came out and expressed empathy for the family of a cop who has to spend 20 years in prison for killing an unarmed black man.

F*** the empathy. And f*** feeling empathy for soldiers in the US military who willingly signed up for non-economic reasons while we're at it.

you know the difference is pretty huge there, right? nazism was a political party/ideology, not a nationality. not every German citizen supported it. you're saying every single one of Israel's nine million people are guilty genociders? do they all deserve life in prison, or death?

look, I don't "support" Israel here. I'm not even trying to "both sides" it. I just don't understand why this issue makes people take these insane extremist stances. I'm just saying there's a difference between supporting Palestine and saying nine million people of all ages are guilty of genocide because of where they were born.

Well I also think there’s a bit of signal boosting going on but back on topic,

I think representing issues as one-sided is a fast way to push people into thier extremist corners and at that point you’ll never make any progress no matter how morally right you believe yourself/platform to be.

Of course, if it was easy it would’ve been resolved ~70 years ago

Yeah I mean disappointment tends to occur if you rely on any celebrity to be some type of pure and perfect activist

Like people are so pressed for their favorite celebs to speak on issues so stuff like this is bound to happen

Don’t think this was the worst of it tho but yeah kinda a misstep

It's not really a religious war, this is about territory and the government of Israel not getting along with the nation of Palestine (people with multiple different backgrounds
and religions). Israel recently attacked a mosque so I guess you could say religion is involved but it's a very small part and not the issue. Please read about the issue before making a final opinion. Israel wants control of all Palestine land and to get rid of the people there now so they could put there own people there, Israel is funded by the US and backed by tons of other countries while Palestine is a small nation with very little resources. We witnessing genocide to the Palestinians and they're fighting for their lives.

Any support is needed and Rihanna dropped the ball. This is worse than a hot take, it doesn't even acknowledge the real issue. Kids dying is bad, we already know. Israel needs to stop invade Palestine and killing innocent people. A lot of Palestine is illegally occupied by Israel and they just want to become separate so they could have freedom but Israel is unwilling to accept peace, they could return to 1967 borders they originally agreed to but Israel is being unreasonable greedy and blinded by hate.

Israelis: “we will not stop killing Palestinians until Israel occupies every acre of land in Palestine”

Palestinians: “we just want to live”

dumbasses in this thread: “maybe there’s a peaceful solution where they both get a little bit of what they want”
