Some 3,000 actors and actresses from the United Kingdom — including “Dr. Strange” actress Tilda Swinton and comedian and actor Steve Coogan — have signed on to an open letter condemning Israeli retaliatory strikes and ignoring the brutal attacks committed nearly two weeks ago by Hamas terrorists.

The letter, posted by the organization Artists for Palestine U.K., begins with an outright attack on Israel — with no mention of the terrorist attacks to which Israeli forces have been responding.

We are witnessing a crime and a catastrophe. Israel has reduced much of Gaza to rubble, and cut off the supply of water, power, food and medicine to 2.3 million Palestinians. In the words of the UN’s undersecretary for humanitarian affairs, “the spectre of death” is hanging over the territory.

The letter goes on to lament the plight of civilians who live in Gaza — again making no mention of the widespread support Hamas enjoys from Palestinian civilians living there and blaming Israel alone for enacting “collective punishment” on the population.

“Our governments are not only tolerating war crimes but aiding and abetting them,” they said of nations standing in support of Israel. “There will come a time when they are held to account for their complicity. But for now, while condemning every act of violence against civilians and every infringement of international law whoever perpetrates them, our obligation is to do all we can to bring an end to the unprecedented cruelty being inflicted on Gaza.”

“We support the global movement against the destruction of Gaza and the mass displacement of the Palestinian people. We demand that our governments end their military and political support for Israel’s actions,” the letter concluded. “We call for an immediate ceasefire and the opening of Gaza’s crossings to allow humanitarian aid to enter unhindered.”

In addition to Swinton and Coogan, other signatories included “A Mighty Heart” director Michael Winterbottom, “Harry Potter” actress Miriam Margolyes, and Scottish actor Peter Mullan — along with a host of visual artists, playwrights, poets, and more.

Sunny Hostin weighed in on Thursday on the ongoing battle to replace ousted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), and she attempted to make the case against current nominee Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) by telling a personal story.

Referencing a congressional hearing in which she had been called to testify on the topic of cameras in courtrooms, Hostin claimed that Jordan had “terrorized” her and the other experts who were present. She even said that Jordan had yelled at her to the point that he had been spitting.

“I’ve had my own personal interaction with Jim Jordan where he terrorized me,” she said during Thursday’s broadcast of “The View.”

“I testified in front of Congress. He was, like, spitting — he was yelling at me so much that he started spitting,” Hostin continued. “I think when you have someone who, like Nancy Pelosi said, who supported an insurrection, who voted not to certify the election, who would then be second in command to the presidency, Rachel Maddow said that yesterday, and I think it — we gasped.”

“Well, that’s basic civics,” co-host Joy Behar pointed out.

“I think the thought of a person like that being able to non-certify an election is really problematic,” Hostin said. “I mean, what’s going on in this country?”

But according to video provided by mrcTV, Jordan did not yell at Hostin at all during the hearing — in fact, he did not appear even to question her. Rather, he focused the majority of his attention and a series of questions on Hostin’s fellow witness, former CNN analyst Jeffrey Toobin.

When Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) interrupted Jordan’s line of questioning to complain that he was getting off topic, Jordan protested — but did not, as Hostin asserted — yell “so much that he started spitting” at any point during the proceedings.
