celeb news Madonna makes IG post demanding peace for all children in war, including Israelis

[Saint James]

context is key here. 'all children' as a statement for Palestine VS Israel is not good, but that's not what her post is. Her post is about the Global Peace Summit and displaced children from Ukraine.

Honestly if she only did not sign the letter. 

And yes I am disappointed with Lana too.

To THINK that people will fume at the fact that she has included Israeli children as if they are guilty of the atrocities commited by wars show y'all aren't any better than the people commiting the atrocities in the first place. The difference being they have weapons and y'all takatakaktaka your lives away on a forum pretending to have some moral superiority on others for e-clout kii

 

Alongoria13 ALWAYS rising at the right moments to tell these cigarettes what's up! The postulating over supposed moral values on this site is absolutely insufferable and PHONEY. Rather transparent wouldn't you say?

[DorothyVallens]

Why draw the line and differentiate between innocent people? Desiring for only children to be saved and talking about "war around the world" without contextualizing political, economical, racial and religious conflicts is like singing "We are the world" all over again or wishing "world peace" at Miss Universe. It's just misleading, useless, romantic (in a bad way) and moralist all at once. I know we shouldn't put the pressure against artists to talk about these complex issues, but this is just pointless and, in Madonna's case, a disappointment. She's been so political and daring all along her career, this just isn't it.

Some of you need to take off your stan goggles and bffr. Yes, all children deserve safety, but her post is giving All Lives Matter. If she was able to make an entire post dedicated to the kidnapped victims of Oct 7th, why can't she do the same for the thousands of Palestinian children who were killed since? Why does she need to lump them with everyone else to make her statement as general as possible? She should've sat there and ate her food.

Your look isn't any better dear, let's exclude the inncoent children from a certain community from someone's prayers because their leaders are war mongerers, as if they are aware of what's happening

 

Social media has FRIED your brains I swear, some of the comments in here aren't any better from what we've seen decades ago

I pray that ALL children NEVER go HUNGRY, both POOR and RICH kids, no one should go hungry, not even those with lots of food! #EndHungerNow!

No one hates kids, stop with the homophobic adhonemin attacks. Of course no one is against any kid suffering, but her post is tone deaf. Its the equivalent of an all lives matter take. 
 

She might as well have made a post saying "No innocent human should suffer!!! The world deserves peace!!!". Like what's so profound about her stance? Yes all children deserve to live, but right now there is a group of children that are in more danger than the rest and are being targeted and killed at a much higher rate. They deserve our immediate attention and help. Her juvenile post is a failed attempt at virtue signaling.

children are our future, we must protect them.

[ebaby]

my thing is I don't care if she wants to make a super general pray for the children post — my issue is that she's been silent on instagram for months while Israel has been genociding tens of thousands of Palestinians and this is where we see Palestine mentioned for the first time since October...

 

...a Ukraine post of all things.

 

Like come on.

 

It's lowkey insulting and totally makes me lose respect for her as a long time fan.

 

She mentioned Palestinian children a couple times on her tour during the speaking segment and talking about how we need to protect the world's children blah blah blah — none of this really means anything if we can't call a spade a spade and make clear who is the perpetrator of this violence (Israel).

 

But she won't ever do that because of the people she's surrounded with, especially her manager.

 

Disappointing

Palestinian children deserve more than merely being sprinkled in to a generalized "think of the children" statement when we are witnessing them being killed at insane rates 

 

We can and should expect better from her 

 

Especially when she's been such an activist for other issues.

Because her ******* post is about the Global Peace Summit? Like she explains?

In fact, her main focus is about Ukraine...AS SHE SAYS (and i'll post it here for you)  "On June 15th world leaders will gather in Switzerland for the Global Peace Summit focused on an End to the war in Ukraine and the return of more than 19.000 Ukrainian Children who were torn from their families and deported to Russia.". The main focus is not Palestine. 

 

Are y'all for ******* real? Like...how can y'all reading skills be so ******* bad? lmao...it's right there! But yall have to break your nails to post something and try to get a "gotcha" moment on ATRL.

You're wasting your time. The same people in here melting down are the same ones that would have had temper tantrums if she didn't mention Palestine at all, and focused solely on Ukraine/Ukrainian children.

Thats even worse. She can dedicate a post for Israelis and Ukrainians, but not Palestinians. Her selective activism is dis genuine and annoying.

The problem with people nowadays is they focus on what they feel others should talk about online instead of reading what they actually ARE talking about. It's clearly a you problem boo. Thats not on Madonna.

I agree, so you should read my posts a couple more times until you finally get it.
