Hollywood actor puts up pro-Pakistan video

Hollywood actor Jacob Berger, known for his critically acclaimed films That Day and A Jew Must Die, is in the spotlight for his pro-Palestine stance. 

The star has put up a politically charged video on Instagram, which has ignited global debate.

The video, shared through his backup account @loljacobbergerbackup, which is linked to his main account @jacobbergeractor, features Berger expressing strong support for both Palestine and Pakistan. In the video, he also criticizes Israeli policy and Indian users who, according to him, target Muslims online.

Berger says, “This is why you see, India always standing with Israel, because they actually don’t like Israel. It’s because they hate Muslims and they hate Pakistan, and that’s what it’s really about. 

And obviously India is using the same October 7th playbook to try and garner support. That’s why you see all the Zionists supporting India, not Pakistan. So stay woke, y’all.”

The video and its caption triggered strong reactions online. Supporters from different parts of the world praised Berger for voicing solidarity with Muslim communities and for calling out what they see as selective global outrage.

One user from Thailand commented, “We in Thailand and Canada stand with Pakistan as well.” Another said, “Thank you, Jacob, for raising your voice for Pakistan.” A third wrote, “Palestine and Pakistan are one.”
