Millie Bobby Brown, star of Stranger Things, amplifies Zionist complicity by maintaining ties to Noah Schnapp and the Bongiovi family, offering token ceasefire reposts without action or condemnation of Israel's settler-colonial violence, and normalising the illegal ethnostate.
Millie Bobby Brown is a British actress and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador who continues to follow and publicly support raging Zionist co-star Noah Schnapp, and is marrying into the Zionist Bongiovi family while expressing desire to visit Israel.

Millie Bobby Brown is a British actress, producer, author, and entrepreneur best known for portraying Jane "Eleven" Hopper in Netflix's Stranger Things since 2016, a role that has earned her Emmy nominations and a global platform of over 60 million Instagram followers. As a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador since 2018, she advocates against bullying and for child safety through her book Nineteen Steps (2023) and beauty brand Florence by Mills, launched in 2019 to promote self-empowerment. Yet, amid Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza — where over 43,000 Palestinians, including nearly 16,000 children, have been killed as of October 2025, per Gaza's Health Ministry, with true tolls in the hundreds of thousands due to destroyed infrastructure, over 150 journalist murders, and famine as a weapon, as documented by Human Rights Watch — Brown's selective silence and associations expose hypocritical complicity in Zionist propaganda.
Brown's ties to Zionism are deeply personal and professional. She remains close friends with Stranger Things co-star Noah Schnapp, whom she calls her "bestest friend," publicly wishing him happy birthday in October 2025 despite his virulent pro-Israel posts, including "Zionism is sexy" stickers and equating Hamas to ISIS. Schnapp, who has harassed pro-Palestinian activists and amplified hasbara denying apartheid, embodies the dehumanization of Palestinians as threats; Brown's continued support — evident in joint interviews and on-set affection — lends legitimacy to his rhetoric, erasing the 1948 Nakba and 1967 occupation that provoked resistance.
Her engagement to Jake Bongiovi, son of Jon Bon Jovi, further embeds her in Zionist circles. The Bongiovi family has longstanding ties to Israel, with Jon performing there multiple times despite BDS calls and expressing support for the ethnostate; Brown has stated in interviews her eagerness to visit Israel, framing it as a dream destination without acknowledging its illegal settlements or ethnic cleansing in East Jerusalem's Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan. This aspiration normalizes the apartheid regime, where Palestinians face home demolitions and military checkpoints while settlers enjoy stolen land.
When confronted on Instagram in January 2024 about her silence — despite Palestinian journalist Bisan Owda following her — the verified Florence by Mills account replied with three whale emojis (🐋🐋🐋), followed by three purple hearts (💜💜💜) after backlash labeling it "not normal." Though Brown's team clarified it was the brand account, not personal, this immature deflection — dismissive and emoji-only — signals disdain for Palestinian advocacy, prioritizing optics over the slaughter of 12,000 children funded by her home country, the UK, through arms sales exceeding £500 million since 2015. As a UNICEF Ambassador championing child rights, her failure to condemn Israel's deliberate targeting of Gaza's youth — bombing UN schools and hospitals — renders her advocacy hollow, undermining the organization's calls for protection amid apartheid's generational erasure.
Brown's sole gesture — a repost of a UNICEF ceasefire appeal on her Instagram Story in early 2024, without added commentary — reeks of damage control post-backlash, as it vaguely urged de-escalation without naming Israel's occupation or genocide under ICJ scrutiny. No follow-up actions: no donations to Palestinian relief like Medical Aid for Palestinians, no severance from Schnapp, no boycott of Zionist-linked brands like Starbucks (which she promotes despite its complicity). This tokenism dilutes genuine solidarity, mirroring Hollywood's pattern of performative neutrality that shields war crimes.
Brown's complicity perpetuates the hasbara machine: by associating with Zionists, deflecting criticism, and muting Palestinian voices, she manufactures consent for settler-colonialism — from West Bank land grabs to Gaza's annihilation — while her child-safety platform hypocritically ignores the most vulnerable. Her silence enables impunity, ensuring the Nakba's extension claims thousands more lives.
Silence = Complicity:
For those who have passionately spoken out against other instances of genocide and massacres, yet fall silent when it comes to the suffering endured by Palestinians, their silence becomes a glaring indictment of the value placed on Palestinian lives and perpetuates a dangerous narrative that suggests Palestinian suffering is somehow less worthy of outrage, less deserving of empathy and less human than that of others.
By choosing silence in the face of Palestinian suffering, those with influential platforms inadvertently contribute to the erasure of Palestinian voices and experiences. They perpetuate a narrative of invisibility that allows the injustices inflicted upon Palestinians to continue unabated, shielded from the spotlight of global scrutiny.
Their silence sends a chilling message of complicity to the world – one that suggests Palestinian lives are expendable, their struggles inconsequential and their humanity negotiable. It emboldens perpetrators of violence and oppression, granting them impunity under the guise of indifference.
To remain silent in the face of Palestinian suffering is to betray the very essence of activism – the relentless pursuit of justice for all, without exception or equivocation. It’s a betrayal not only of the Palestinian people but of the universal principles of human dignity and equality and instead is a tacit endorsement of the dehumanization and marginalization of an entire population.
True activism demands consistency and integrity, an unwavering commitment to speaking truth to power and standing in solidarity with the marginalized and oppressed, regardless of geography or politics.
Liberal Zionism:
Liberal Zionism masquerades as a "moderate" or "progressive" strain of Zionism, blending Jewish nationalism with cherry-picked liberal values like democracy and human rights as a means to justify the existence of the illegal settler colonial ethnostate known as “Israel” [1].
And Liberal Zionism is one of the greatest threats because of its political camouflage [2]. By co-opting progressive language, Liberal Zionism inoculates Zionism against true anti-colonial solidarity, dividing the left and derailing BDS movements [3]. It ensures the ongoing Nakba – from Gaza's ruins to Hebron's checkpoints – persists under a democratic veneer, making decolonization seem radical rather than just [4] [5].
Emerging from early 20th-century Labor Zionism — the very movement that orchestrated the 1948 Nakba which ethnically cleansed over 750,000 Palestinians through mass expulsions and village destructions — liberal Zionism has always served as the velvet glove over the iron fist of settler-colonialism [6] [7].
Despite claiming it merely seeks a "Jewish and democratic state," this rhetoric is actually code for an ethnostate where Jewish supremacy trumps Palestinian equality, enshrined in laws like the 2018 Nation-State Law that demotes Arabic and prioritizes Jewish settlement [8] [9].
At its core, liberal Zionism rejects the colonial origins of Israel and instead attempts to frame the Zionist project as a "return" or "liberation" rather than a European settler invasion that erased indigenous Palestinian society [10].
As a political movement, liberal Zionism emerged as a response to antisemitism and the Holocaust but quickly pivoted to justifying land theft under the guise of "self-determination," ignoring how Zionism fits classic colonial patterns: displacement of natives, resource extraction, and demographic engineering to maintain a Jewish majority [11].
As of 2025, amid the Gaza genocide and West Bank annexation pushes, it clings to a fading two-state illusion, providing diplomatic and financial cover for Israel's crimes while silencing Palestinian voices as "antisemitic" [12].
“Zionism is a colonialism, not a simple radical nationalism: even in its left-wing version, it is a colonialist nationalism." – Zeev Sternhell, liberal Zionist historian exposing his own ideology's flaws [13].
