Posted an Instagram video captioned w/ support of Israeli forces, calling Palestinians “aggressive” and “disruptive”. Generally spreading to the predominantly white and appropriating “wellness yoga community” that people supporting Palestine are narcissistic.

Here is a direct quote from their Instagram caption: “We are experiencing very polarizing beliefs & opinions since the barbaric Oct 7 terror in Israel. I feel that the divide comes down to those who can see with their own eyes & those who are influenced to believe something. I only base my beliefs on first hand personal experiences. I do not believe impersonal gossip, & I do not judge until I educate myself. When I was 24 yo, being raised Catholic, I went on a solo pilgrimage to Israel, to walk in the exact footsteps of Jesus. I walked from Jerusalem to Bethlehem, to Bethesda, etc. I stayed in an ancient convent in Jerusalem. I wanted my experience to be real. I knew ZIP about world affairs or politics at that time - I was traveling with a calling card, cell phones weren't a common day experience as is now, where information AND misinformation is at our fingertips. My experience was unadulterated & real. in every city I found Palestinians aggressive & antagonistic. They created loud distractions specifically at Jewish times of prayer. I was equally shocked by Israeli military presence everywhere. I felt strong defensive, hyper-vigilant energy from them. Again, I knew little of history & nothing of politics. That was my experience.”
