On Wednesday night, actress Helen Mirren was confronted in the streets of Tower Hill, East London, by a man who verbally attacked her for her support of Israel. The 80-year-old Oscar-winning actress was walking with her husband, director Taylor Hackford, when the man shouted derogatory remarks, calling her an 'evil Zionist b****' and accusing her of being pleased with the destruction of Palestinian homes. Hackford intervened, urging the man to leave them alone. Mirren, who is not Jewish, has been a vocal advocate for Israel, stating in a previous interview that she believes in the existence of Israel and its future, particularly in light of the Holocaust. Her support for Israel has been evident in her career choices, including her recent role as Golda Meir in a biographical film. Additionally, she joined other prominent figures in signing a petition to support Israel's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest, further demonstrating her commitment to the cause.
