Last night Israel time – almost three days after the barbaric Hamas massacre, abduction, and rape of innocent civilians from Israel – I called out Hollywood actor and self-professed “humanitarian” Mark Ruffalo for not commenting at all on the situation. In doing so, I referenced his 2014 tweets in which he refused to believe Hamas was capable of using human shields:
Another morally depraved virtue signaler completely silent about Hamas massacring civilians = @MarkRuffalo.

He probably still insists Hamas cannot possibly be this evil https://t.co/dowEEuOWrx
Hey @MarkRuffalo, was wondering if you still feel this way in the wake of the Hamas massacre, rape, and abduction of innocent Israelis? Asking for 900+ friends… https://t.co/2I8otNBqb2

Less than two hours after my tweets, the Incredible Dolt did comment.
Missing was any condemnation of Hamas. Instead, he served up a steaming hot plate of bullshit with a side of both-siding:
Yeah, he is the one grief-stricken. No, Mark, you are not grief stricken. You are virtue signaling. Those who are truly grief stricken are Israelis, Jews, and everyone else who lost loved ones in the Hamas massacre.
But don’t think Mark stopped there. After both-siding us, he allowed his true colors to shine through, essentially blaming Israel for the massacre and siding with Hamas since their actions were only the necessary consequence of Israel’s very existence:
If that wasn’t bad enough, he retweeted an interview with a “Palestinian-American”, giving her perspective which was basically “Israel, bad”:
"Humanity seems to be lost and folks are digging in their heels on all side[s], and the fact of the matter is, it's the people who are suffering."@RaniaBatrice gives Palestinian-American perspective on the attack on Israel by Hamas. pic.twitter.com/d8ilF2kFCO

Mark Ruffalo has tens of millions of followers on social media to which he has long been spreading anti-Israel and frankly antisemitic talking points. He is complicit in adding to the level of hatred against the Jewish state that created the conditions to embolden Hamas to go ahead with their unspeakably evil atrocities.
He has blood on his hands.
