The video, which appears to be a casual, selfie-style rant set against a casual backdrop, has been widely interpreted by critics as a call for Israel's destruction or dismantlement, especially given her family's history of pro-Palestinian advocacy.
Her father, real estate developer Mohamed Hadid, has faced accusations of antisemitism for past statements, and Alana herself has been outspoken on Palestinian issues, including leading rallies for Gaza ceasefires and serving as creative director for Watermelon Pictures, a production company behind films like The Voice of Hind Rajab (executive produced by figures such as Brad Pitt and Joaquin Phoenix).
Interestingly, Hadid visited Israel in 2018 to celebrate New Year's with her then-Israeli boyfriend, Elad Idan, which some commentators highlight as ironic given her current stance.
The post quickly drew backlash from pro-Israel voices and Jewish advocacy groups, who labeled it as promoting "genocidal fantasies" and questioned her ties to Hollywood.
Sites like Israellycool shared the video, sparking debates on social media about free speech, antisemitism, and the Israel-Palestine conflict.
