The American Jewish Committee has also defended the mom-of-two, who they said should be \u201capplauded\u201d for using her platform to speak out on the subject.<\/p>\n
AJC spokesman Richard Hirschhaut told the outlet that the reality TV star “did the right thing and acted with her heart with her initial post” and she “should be applauded for speaking up and speaking out.”<\/p>\n
He said the Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum instead became “a subject of vicious and ugly scorn\u201d.<\/p>\n
The spokesman then highlighted \u201cthe power of social media and the power of celebrity is desperately needed at this moment when Israel is at war and under attack by a terrorist organization that is barbaric, inhumane and immoral.\u201d<\/p>\n
The AJC is urging “influencers across the spectrum to demonstrate moral courage and amplify moral clarity by supporting Israel’s high moral ground.”<\/p>\n
