NBA Star Kyle Kuzma Calls for Palestinian Freedom From Hamas and Iran
NBA player Kyle Kuzma, formerly a teammate of Deni Avdija on the Washington Wizards, has publicly called for the "liberation of Palestine" to include freedom from Hamas and Iranian-backed terrorism. Kuzma shared a video from a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Mexico City on social media platform X, adding his own message to the discourse.
"If you believe Palestinians deserve freedom, say it clearly. freedom from Hamas too. Freedom from Iranian-backed terror. Freedom from leaders who use civilians as shields," Kuzma wrote, emphasizing that "compassion cannot be selective." His remarks appear to criticize a pro-Palestinian narrative that focuses solely on Israel while allegedly ignoring the role of Hamas and other regional actors in the Palestinians' situation.
Kuzma played alongside Avdija for three seasons with the Wizards. His statement highlights a perspective that Palestinian freedom must encompass liberation from Hamas rule and the influence of Iranian terror, diverging from some common pro-Palestinian talking points.
