Madonna speaks about Gaza, asks Pope Leo to visit 'before it's too late'

Not to be that person, but genuinely inquiring, what happens if a Pope is murdered due to political conflicts? 

I mean it'd force the western community to move to end the conflict because it'd be an assasination of a major international politicial figure and would draw global condemnation. 
And more concerningly, no matter which side got blamed (Hamas or IDF) there would be massive sectarian/ethnic conflict in civil society as a result.

Madonna spoke up about the situation in Gaza the moment it happened in October 2023. She got some things wrong as lets face it, the propaganda went into overdrive and was very successful in October 2023, but she opposed this conflict since day 1. She's spoken out against the killing of Wadea Al-Fayoume in Chicago as well. All while on tour, all made the news.
 
She turned up to Eurovision in Tel Aviv and deliberately had part of her performance highlight the need for peace and a 2 state solution. And this was in 2019, when the public conversation in the west around Israel & Palestine was significantly different.
She did similar performances throughout her entire 2006 Confessions tour. 
The Palestinian flag is featured in the MDNA tour Nobody Knows Me Interlude. 
She's criticised all religious conflict and persecution on every tour since 9/11. 

She's never been quiet. 

Very well summarized. I also want to add the Holiday performance of Reinvention Tour where she displays both flags next to each other at the end when she says “come together in every nation” + whole section in her documentary “ I’m going to tell you a secret”. These were 21 years ago. But people will make ageist jokes here and say she’s this and that while acting like they are a better person behind their keyboards.

Well done, ma'am. I applaud you.

Isn't the new Pope a family relative of her father?

I'd never ever usually like that comment and agree but shoot Considering a member on madges team is hitlers cousin and yet she spoke out. Yeah wow… she has guts. Thank you madonna 

 I'm too upset to fully comprehend on how our MM is silent on this urgent matter (& how she shall be remembered in history for being silent) & other pressing matters rn in the world, her being silent but still singing BTW (supreme court and gay marriage)
I'll just continue dissociating in the corner for now

Implying that Israel wouldn't straight up put one between Leo's eyes while calling him an antisemite for saying "hey, maybe don't kill kids"  

not advocating for this but I think this may need to happen for the rest of the world to wake up

Bold of you to assume Israel could do anything bad enough for the world to "wake up"  

If slaughtering thousands of innocents doesn't wake people up, I fear nothing will

Yea, I still can’t understand how much she’s changed. She doesn’t “have” to speak up but it really hurts that she chooses not to do it now. Her being outspoken on many things was one of the reasons why I became a LM.

But I didn’t see that sash as it being related to Israel? I thought it was a dodgers thing or just random colors like she’s done in other dates  I hope I’m right

As much of a qvnt she can be at times, she’s always been a champion for human rights.  She is the original mother.

It was for the Dodgers as a nod to the city, she did purple and gold for the Lakers and blue and green for the Seahawks in Seattle. Idk why that person is spreading the rumor that it was representing Israel.

Lets be honest with ourselves here.

That rumour is only spreading because she's silent.

I understand that, but that’s a crazy assumption to make imo.
