Mia Khalifa 'questions Israel's right to exist', recalls Balfour Declaration

Mia Khalifa appeared to question Israel's 'right to exist' in a new post on X (formerly Twitter), suggesting anyone raising that typical pro-Israel talking point should instead ask about Israel's large number of dual citizens and Israel's history of being created in Palestine under British colonialism.

"I was asked in an interview the other day whether or not I think Isr*el has a right to exist and I looked him dead in the eyes and asked what percentage of the “Isr*eli” population holds dual citizenships. The silence was deafening," Khalifa wrote in her post.

Up to 100,000 Israelis are dual German citizens, and half a million are U.S. citizens. There are about 7.2 million Israeli Jews.

"Being asked that by a BRITISH person when it was their country that sold Palestine away at the recommendation of Arthur Balfour and Walter Rothschild, when it wasn’t theirs to sell, was the icing on the colonialism cake," she added in a follow-up post in reference to the infamous Balfour Declaration.

Khalifa did not say who the interview was with but it is yet to be published.

Mia Khalifa is a Lebanese-American former adult film actress turned activist and social media influencer.

Khalifa, who garners millions of followers on her social media platforms, has gained attention in recent years after she waded into politics and social issues. 

She has also been expressing strong views in support of the Palestinian people during Israel's war on Gaza, earning her the ire of supporters of the Jewish state and its genocidal actions in the occupied Palestinian territories.

In October, US adult entertainment enterprise Playboy announced it had cut ties with Mia Khalifa for statements she made after Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel.
