Israeli satire show ridicules LGBT individuals backing Hamas in popular skit
A Hilarious Skit Mocks College Students and LGBT Supporters of Hamas
A viral skit on social media is taking a hilarious jab at college students and members of the LGBT community who have shown support for the terrorist group Hamas. Released by the Israeli political satire program Eretz Nehederet, the skit is set on a campus called Columbia Untisemity and features two students.
One of the students proudly waves a flag that combines the pride flag with the Palestinian flag, declaring that everyone in the “LGBTQH” community (with the H representing Hamas) is welcome on campus because supporting Hamas is “so trending right now.”
College Students Take a Dig at Missing Israeli Residents
In a clever twist, the skit shows the two students removing posters of missing children in Gaza, mocking real-life college students who have taken down photos of missing Israeli residents during the Hamas terrorist attack. One of the students dismisses the posters as “toxic Zionist propaganda.”
Virtual Interview with a Hamas Member
The skit also includes a virtual interview with a Hamas member in Gaza, who claims to be hiding in a hospital and protected by Allah and 2 million civilians. When one of the students expresses a desire to be with the terrorist, the Hamas member jokingly suggests they can visit anytime and that Hamas would “throw them off the roof.” The student mistakenly interprets this as an invitation to a rooftop party.
A Chilling Warning from Hamas
The college students even extend an invitation for the Hamas member to come to the United States, to which the member responds that they will come once they “finish with Israel.” The member ominously warns that “America is next” and that it will be a “blast.”
Pro-Palestinian Rallies and Controversy
Following the Hamas attack on Israel, numerous pro-Palestinian rallies have taken place across the U.S. and on college campuses. A pro-Palestinian student group at Columbia University released a statement justifying the attacks as a “counter-offensive against their settler-colonial oppressor.”
Conservative commentator Dennis Prager, who is Jewish, has strongly condemned the anti-Semitism displayed during these rallies, stating that the footage exposes the “rot” that has infiltrated universities in recent years.

How can someone advocate for a terrorist group like Hamas while also being a part of a marginalized community?
Nity should support Hamas. The other student, played by a comedic actor, is shocked by this statement and tries to reason with his peer. The skit uses humor and satire to highlight the absurdity of advocating for a terrorist group while also being a part of a marginalized community.
The skit begins with a scene in which the first student, portrayed as an overly enthusiastic and naive individual, excitedly shares his new flag design with his friend. The flag combines the iconic six-color pride flag with the Palestinian flag, symbolizing solidarity between the LGBTQ+ community and the Palestinian people.
However, instead of receiving praise for his design, the second student, played by a renowned comedian, reacts with disbelief. He questions the rationale behind supporting Hamas, a group known for its human rights abuses and acts of violence. The second student, though also a member of the LGBTQ+ community, cannot fathom how the first student can advocate for a cause that goes against core values of equality and freedom.
What follows is a series of comedic dialogues and exchanges filled with wordplay, irony, and sarcasm. The skit focuses on the contradictions and incongruences within the first student’s perspective. The humor lies in pointing out the absurdity of blindly supporting a terrorist group, while being a part of a movement that fights for acceptance and equal rights.
Throughout the skit, the second student tries to reason with his friend, emphasizing the importance of critical thinking and not conflating political issues with personal identity. However, the first student remains stubborn, defending his stance with misguided arguments and misconceptions.
By mocking the misguided beliefs of the first student, the skit sheds light on a broader issue prevalent within some segments of society – a lack of informed understanding and the dangers of blindly following political ideologies. The skit gently nudges viewers to question their own beliefs and think critically before lending support to any cause or group.
Moreover, the skit also highlights the significance of intersectionality within activism. It demonstrates that being a part of one marginalized community does not justify support for organizations or ideologies that perpetuate harm against other marginalized communities.
The Eretz Nehederet skit successfully uses humor to deliver a thought-provoking message. It effectively ridicules the questionable logic of advocating for a terrorist group such as Hamas while championing for equality and acceptance. By doing so, it encourages viewers to reflect on their own beliefs and the importance of informed activism. Ultimately, this humorous take on a serious issue serves as a reminder of the power of satire in fostering dialogue and promoting critical thinking in society.
