A staunch Zionist, the former 'Jeopardy!' host slams the stars attending the recent Academy Awards for not wearing yellow ribbons to show support for Israel.

AceShowbiz - Mayim Bialik has expressed her disappointment on social media over the lack of support for the Israeli hostages taken during the October 7 raid, as evidenced by the absence of yellow ribbons at the Oscars.
"I wish every human being at the Oscars had worn a yellow ribbon to show support for Hamas immediately returning the hostages," Bialik wrote. "The cease-fire offer demands the return of captive women, elderly, and the injured, but it has been rejected by Hamas."
Despite the presence of ceasefire pins among Oscar guests and nominees, Bialik believes they did not adequately represent the plight of the hostages. Actors Ramy Youssef and Mark Ruffalo wore the pins, stating that they supported a permanent ceasefire in Gaza to "stop killing kids."
Bialik's comments come amid an ongoing debate over the conflict between Israel and Palestine. Earlier this year, she faced protests during an author chat due to her political views.
