Kanye West‘s Hebrew greeting he used to announce his return to Twitter has gotten a response from the country of Israel.
Ye tweeted out “Shalom” when Elon Musk restored his Twitter account on Sunday (November 20) following his suspension from numerous social media sites in October related to anti-Semitic hate speech.
Israel responded to Ye’s tweet, writing that as a country it “would very much like to be excluded from this narrative.”
Check out the tweet below:
After a contentious few weeks for the Yeezy mogul following a series of disparaging comments made about Jewish people, George Floyd and white supremacy on Fox News, Drink Champs and other outlets, Ye apologized for his “hurtful” comments in an October sit-down with Piers Morgan.
“I will say I’m sorry for the people that I hurt with the Death Con,” he said. “I feel like I caused hurt and confusion and I’m sorry for the families of the people that had nothing to do with the trauma that I’d been through. And I used my platform where you say, ‘Hurt people, hurt people.’ And I was hurt.
“I wanna say that it’s wrong to hold an apology hostage and I gotta let go of that and free myself of the trauma and say, ‘Look, I’m just gonna give it all up to God right now. And say to those families that are hurt I really wanna give you guys a big hug and I say I’m sorry for hurting you with my comments.”
Ye continued: “And I want to word it not in a political way, but a presidential way, which means what I knew to be a president when I was growing up.”
The apology seemed to have come too late, as adidas, Balenciaga, Chase Bank and even Def Jam have all since cut ties with the Chicago star. Most recently, the company behind the Stem Player used to release Donda 2 has also terminated its relationship with Ye, telling the Los Angeles Times it’s already released new “Ye-free” devices.
However, these setbacks don’t seem to have stopped Ye from pursuing his presidential aspirations, as he announced on Monday (November 21) that he is once again running for president, and that his forthcoming “Ye 24” campaign merch would only cost $20.
“This is the update. We are the update,” he told celebrity gossip site X17. “That’s all we need to do. As a species, we need to update together. Everything’s been so divisive. Think about when they say ‘diversity’ — people look at that like it’s a good thing, but we’re the United States of America. We’re a universe. We’re a university. We’re a republic.”
Injecting themselves into something to ask to be excluded. Mmmkay.
if thats what you believe believe it. Macklemore would think shit like 911 conspiracy anti semitism this was all publicised but somehow no one gave two fucks and so people still bought and streamed his music. In kanyes case the exposure by the media worked against him.
They did not. His pos existence has gone to the abyss. LMAO.
Bless Israel and the free world.
Go suck a dick till u get cum drunk faggot
Well. Look what escaped from the trailer park! What’s your obsession with homosexuals?
sorry kanye doesnt like the people who have stolen money from him for 20 years. total shocker.
What you think every Jewish person is getting a share of his money? Lol You sound dumb
Not every Jewish person stole from him, however I’m pretty sure everyone who did steal from him was Jewish. In his mind.
Free Palestine, they’re terroristic, genocidal, apartheidists.
Come free it then
West should be placed on permanent ignore. He’s mentally I’ll let him implode. As for Musk – the consummate bully / whore – anything for a dime. He has no soul. He is the Mango Mussolini’s Himmler. Anyone that drives a Tesla is anything but cool – you are a pathetic wannabe and we are all laughing at your needy Heiny!
