Actor Simon Helberg plays Howard Wolowitz, the most noticeably Jewish character in hit sitcom Big Bang Theory.
Unfortunately, he does not seem to be a proud Jew in real life, as I discovered when I chanced upon his Twitter account and saw one of his most recent tweets.

A search of this tweets reveals this is not the first time he has sided against Israel.

When I search his tweets for anything about Hamas, terrorism or rockets fired at Israel, I get bupkes.
It’s a shame his co-star Mayim Bialik, a proud Jew and supporter of the Jewish state, did not rub off on him.
In the meantime, I won’t be watching him or the show again. Not as a boycott gesture, but I just can’t stomach seeing him now, knowing he would defend Hamas over his own people.
