Story summary

On October 7, 2023, Hamas-led militants attacked communities in southern Israel, killing approximately 1,200 civilians and taking around 250 hostages. Since then, celebrities like John Cusack and Roger Waters have publicly criticized Israel or supported the Palestinian cause, using their fame to amplify political views but lacking expertise on the conflict's complexities. Meanwhile, Israel has faced significant criticism for its retaliatory actions in Gaza, which led to widespread destruction; estimates suggest over 70,000 people were killed in Gaza during the Israeli campaign. The attack not only reshaped domestic politics in Israel, leading to the resignation of key military officials but also intensified tensions between Israelis and Palestinians, with ongoing repercussions felt three years later.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
