Kim Kardashian Tweets About Israel & Palestine, Apologizes

This is why some celebs shouldn't speak on world issues

Speaking on the escalating war between Israel and the Gaza Strip, Kim Kardashian tweeted to her fans on Friday: "Praying for everyone in Israel" and "Praying for everyone in Palestine and across the world!" After receiving enough objection from her followers, however, she deleted the messages and took to her blog to give an explanation: "I want to own up to and explain that earlier today I sent out two tweets about saying prayers for the people in Palestine and Israel and after hearing from my followers, I decided to take down the tweets because I realized that some people were offended and hurt by what I said, and for that I apologize. I should have pointed out my intentions behind these tweets when I posted them. The fact is that regardless of religion and political beliefs, there are countless innocent people involved who didn't choose this, and I pray for all of them and also for a resolution. I also pray for all the other people around the world who are caught in similar crossfires." (Kim Kardashian)
