Stranger Things star Noah Schnapp sparks outrage over offensive stickers about Israel-Hamas war

Noah Schnapp has sparked further backlash from fans after laughing over offensive stickers amid the ongoing Israel – Hamas war.

The actor, who plays Will Byers in Stranger Things, was previously slammed after sharing a statement on Instagram over the conflict, explaining that he was ‘scared’ by the unrest.

Earlier this month, the 19-year-old was met with a wave of fury when he liked a vile video that mocked Muslim people, while also offending the queer community.

In a new video, he could be seen smiling while filming a group of friends, as they showed off labels which read, ‘Zionism is sexy’ and ‘Hamas is ISIS’.

The footage has since gone viral with the teenager currently trending on Twitter – leaving many alarmed and calling him out publicly.

‘Noah Schnapp is foul…. hes literally a disgrace. a “zionism is sexy” sticker?,’ a follower fumed.

’Well get out of your cushy LA pad, give up your career and go live in Israel then if you love Palestinian genocide sooo badly [sic].’

‘Zionism is sexy F**K YOU fuck you Noah Schnapp F**K YOU,’ an unimpressed fan posted.

‘Noah Schnapp might be top 10 most disgusting people in the world right now,’ one wrote.

Another agreed: ‘F**k Noah Schnapp what an disgusting human being.’

‘Noah Schnapp having stickers saying “Zionism is Sexy” and “Hamas is ISIS”. This man is a white American who has never been affected by oppression,’ a commenter penned.

‘“Zionism is sexy” so the oppression and murder of Palestinians satisfies you? Alright.’

‘What upsets me about that Noah Schnapp video is that these are the same people crying and throwing up saying they were fearing for their lives because “the world hates them”.. there are people rn losing their lives while they’re making fun of them on sm [sic],’ a Twitter user replied.

One called out the difference in treatment between those who had publicly supported Palestine, stating: ‘People losing their career over saying free Palestine but Noah Schnapp will be able to return to stranger things and live the rest of his life off the money from it. What the f**k.’

As a social media fan added: ‘Idgi i thought Noah Schnapp was scared how is he publicly flaunting “zionism is sexy” stickers.’

Schnapp has yet to address the outrage publicly.

Unrest has continued to grow in the region over the last few weeks, after Hamas launched an attack on Israel on October 7, leaving at least 1,200 people dead.

The tensions have escalated amid retaliatory attacks, with Gazan health officials reporting that more than 10,000 Palestinians have lost their lives since then.

Many have called for a ceasefire, with stars making their voices heard amid the brutal fighting.

Gal Gadot and Amy Schumer have spoken out on social media, while Schnapp was slated for his response last month.

‘As a Jewish American, I am afraid,’ he began a lengthy statement – which is still visible on his Instagram page. ‘Afraid for my brothers and sisters in Israel, who have been senselessly attacked by Hamas. I am truly heartbroken to see the brutal murders of innocent children, women and soldiers fighting to defend themselves.

‘I, like others, want peace for both Palestinians and Israelis. Let’s stop the rhetoric and choosing sides. Instead we must recognize that we are all on the side of the fight against terrorism. Choose humanity over violence.

‘You don’t have to be Jewish, you don’t have to be Israeli, you just have to have empathy and common sense to know that THIS is wrong.

‘I have also noticed a silence in social media like never seen before. The same people who love to jump on fashionable causes like supporting Ukraine and combating climate change have been chillingly quiet. The Jewish people are seeing your silence and won’t forget it.

‘I hope we can agree that Hamas are a recognised terrorist organisation; they don’t represent the Palestinian people when they value murdering Israelis more than protecting their own. You either stand with Israel or you stand with terrorism. It shouldn’t be a difficult choice. Shame on you.’
