Legendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld and American entrepreneur Scooter Braun arrived in Israel on the same flight Monday in a show of support for Israel as it wages a war against Hamas and as worldwide Jewry faces an unprecedented level of antisemitism.

Braun, who has worked with such famous singers as Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato and Ariana Grande, toured Kibbutz Kfar Aza that bore the brunt of the Hamas attack on Oct. 7, posting about his visit on Instagram, where he has 3.8 million followers.
"There are no words for today's experience and the pain of this region," Braun wrote. "The scenes of this kibbutz and the massacre that took place here are hard to comprehend. I will never forget what I saw and experienced today."
Seinfeld too has addressed the war. A few days after the Hamas invasion, he wrote on Instagram, where he has 1.3 followers, about his trip to Israel as a young boy, which he said made him fall in love with "our Jewish homeland."
"My heart is breaking from these attacks and atrocities. But we are also a very strong people in our hearts and minds. We believe in justice, freedom and equality. We survive and flourish no matter what. I will always stand with Israel and the Jewish people," he wrote.
