But it turns out this, like pretty much everything else they share, is a lie.
This video is from when she received the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award at The Hollywood Reporter’s 2017 Women in Entertainment. Her words were actually a quote from Elie Wiesel (hat tip: Jewlicious).
When some pointed this out in the comments to some of the above TikTok videos, other commenters claimed Lawrence did sign a ceasefire petition:
This is also a lie, and in fact, other Israel-haters have criticized her for being silent.
It is quite remarkable how the haters will lie about pretty much anything in order to advance their agenda.
