Lina Makhoul, the winner of the Israeli version of 'The Voice,' made a special guest appearance at a concert by rapper Macklemore in Dublin on Monday. The concert, part of Macklemore's 'Free Palestine' tour, aims to raise funds for organizations that have expressed support for the Palestinian cause. One such organization's spokesperson previously justified the Hamas hostage-taking during the October 7th massacre.

Makhoul's participation comes amid criticism in Israel for her past pro-Palestinian statements. In October 2025, she posted on Instagram questioning the ongoing events and suggesting collective punishment, and has previously called for aid to Gaza. Following the killing of Hassan Nasrallah, she posted "May God protect him," and after the death of an Al Jazeera journalist involved in terror activities against Israel, she wrote about journalists posing the greatest threat to military invasion.

Macklemore's tour has drawn controversy, including his removal from Ed Sheeran's tour for using stage time to call for the liberation of Palestine and accuse Israel of genocide and apartheid. The 'Free Palestine' tour is intended to fund organizations like UNRWA USA, Jewish Voice for Peace, and the Palestinian Youth Movement. Videos from the Dublin concert showed the audience wearing keffiyehs and waving Palestinian flags, with images of destruction in Gaza displayed on screens.
