Amar’e Stoudemire went off on a furious rant at those who have remained silent on the Hamas attack on Israel, including supporters of “Black Lives Matter.” The attack took place on Saturday, and Stoudemire took to Instagram to share his dismay.
“I woke up this morning with some disturbing news out of Israel that Hamas (is) kidnapping children, putting them in cages, killing women, killing the elderly,” Stoudemire said. “That’s some coward s***. That’s cowardly.”
Stoudemire then called out those who chose to stay silent on the matter.
“And for all y’all ‘Black Lives Matter’ (supporters) who ain’t saying nothing, (like) ‘Well, let me figure out exactly what happened before saying anything,’ f*** you,” Stoudemire continued. “Figure out what? It ain’t never been cool to kidnap kids and put them in cages, ain’t never been cool to kill women and (the) elderly. Never been, no matter where you’re from, what you represent, or trying to be. Don’t matter.”
The 40-year-old wasn’t done calling out the ones who haven’t condemned the attack just yet.
“And then you go on high and put the kids in front of you as a barricade,” Stoudemire added. “That’s some coward s***. All you politicians who always have to say something on the contrary, I see you, f*** you. All you ‘Black Lives Matter’ people who always have something to say and always support everything else and are quiet now, f*** you too.”
Stoudemire then spoke glowingly of Israel and slammed those who have supported the attack from Hamas.
“Only place in the world where I can go on study tour and eat cultured food. Only place in the world,” he said about Israel. “Some coward s*** dawg and all y’all support it, f*** you. Me and my momma, we don’t respect none of y’all for that. Peace.”

Stoudemire was clearly quite emotional there, and he might have realized he went somewhat overboard, as he deleted the post on Instagram. It’s going to be on the internet for posterity, though.
For those wondering why the six-time All-Star reacted like this, he is an American-Israeli. Through his mother, he associated with the Black Hebrew Israelites and in March 2019, he received Israeli citizenship. Stoudemire finished his professional basketball career in Israel too, with Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2020.
As for the attacks, they commenced on Saturday as I mentioned earlier. Muhammad Deif, the leader of the military wing of Hamas stated in a recorded message that, “the enemy will understand that the time of their rampaging without accountability has ended.”
Israel has responded in kind with brutal attacks of their own, with President Benjamin Netanyahu stating they are at war. Over 1,000 people have now died in this conflict, and the situation seems to be getting uglier by the hour.
