Two members of an activist group funded by Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation have been accused of posting anti-Israel rhetoric online – with one slamming the US for ‘being silent as Palestinians are murdered’.
Executive director of Gen Z for Change, Elise Joshi, has been posting footage of ‘Free Palestine’ rallies outside the White House and top US universities on social media.
The 21-year-old also published a statement on behalf of the non-profit, which takes aim at Israel following the horrific terror attacks that have seen more than 1,000 killed and 10,000 injured.
She has also been circulating statements by former Labour leader in the UK, Jeremy Corbyn, who was suspended after a damning anti-Semitism report.
On October 13, she reposted a comment by Corbyn that said: ‘We may be witnessing the total obliteration of Gaza. Political leaders refusing to speak out should feel eternal shame over the horror they are allowing to unfold.

‘We are supporting our partners and organizations on the frontlines in Israel to provide the urgent aid needed and to help all innocent victims of this unconscionable level of human suffering.’

‘To start and end with condemning Hamas only fuels the widely recognized apartheid state. My family was jailed for fighting against the British in India. I stand with Palestine and all anti-colonial movements.’
In a video posted to her TikTok she also accused the US of being ‘silent as Palestinians are murdered, forcibly removed from their homes and denied basic human rights.’
Founder of Gen Z for Change, Aidan Kohn-Murphy, 19, also took aim at Congressman Jared Moskowitz, for ‘calling for murder of innocent people’.
Kohn-Murphy, who is Jewish, was asked why he had ‘nothing to stay’ on the Hamas attack. Responding on X, formerly known as Twitter, he said: ‘I’m Jewish and have been targeted in anti-Semitic hate for years.
‘I started my platform talking about antisemitism!! I made a vid on TikTok talking about Hamas recently.’
The video, posted on October 14, takes aim at Israel’s response to the surprise attack by Hamas, and attacked members of congress for their statements on the Middle Eastern war.

He said: ‘In America you have democratic leaders calling for the killing of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians as a response to Hamas violence.’
Kohn-Murphy also referred to a letter signed by 34 student groups at Harvard that blamed Israel for Hamas’ massacre of Jewish people as a ‘pro-Palestinian letter’ – saying the response has been ‘unacceptable and terrifying.’
‘If this is terrifying for me I can only imagine how terrifying this must be for people in Gaza,’ he added. ‘And for Palestinian advocates and activists across the world.’
‘I am Jewish and I have been incredibly troubled by video and pictures that we’ve seen form certain allies where extremists are advocating for the mass murder of Jews and that is not acceptable.
He went on: ‘We are seeing before our eyes war crimes that Israel is committing against Palestine and that must be addressed and called out.’
The letter referred to by Kohn-Murphy sparked international outrage, and caused tensions to rise at the Ivy League college.
Many groups have since retracted their support for the statement, which said: ‘We, the undersigned student organizations, hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.’
