Actress Patricia Heaton recently ridiculed a video from a pro-Palestinian activist, declaring herself as the “enemy number one” for supporting Israel. Heaton shared a video of Taher Herzallah, a member of American Muslims for Palestine, in which he stated that anyone who supports Israel or identifies as a Jewish person or Christian Zionist is considered an enemy. In response, Heaton posted, “I guess I’m ‘enemy number one.’ Anyone care to join me?”

Heaton has been vocal about her support for Israel since the terrorist group Hamas attacked the country. She has displayed banners expressing her solidarity with Israel and shared updates about the hostages held by Hamas. Over 34,000 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict in Gaza, with many women and children among the casualties. Israeli missile raids have caused extensive damage to universities and housing in Gaza.
Hamas still holds over 130 Israeli hostages, including five Americans. Despite Congress passing a bipartisan bill condemning antisemitic threats, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has not scheduled the bill for a vote in the Senate.
