'Friends' star David Schwimmer blasts those who deny Hamas raped Jews amid Oct. 7 surprise attack: 'Where is their outrage?'

"Friends" star David Schwimmer blasted those who deny Hamas raped Jews during the terror group's Oct. 7 surprise attack against Israel.

What are the details?

Schwimmer, who is Jewish, detailed his point of view in a Friday post on Instagram, noting that he served on the board of directors for the Rape Foundation for almost 20 years and has been an advocate for child and adult survivors of sexual violence for almost 30 years.

"One crucial aspect I learned early on about the healing process, and for justice to be served by the criminal offenders, is that the survivor be BELIEVED," Schwimmer added.

More from his post:

Why do so many REFUSE TO BELIEVE — despite all the evidence on camera and in testimony — the women, children and men brutally assaulted by terrorists on Oct. 7th?

Where is their outrage?

In the weeks and months that followed, it became clear that their activism, their advocacy, is conditional.

They’ll fight like hell for ALL victims of sexual violence — unless they’re Jews.

Schwimmer added that for many of the deniers, it's a "convenient way of avoiding compassion and personal responsibility."

The "Friends" alum also linked to last week's investigative story from the New York Times — "'Screams Without Words': How Hamas Weaponized Sexual Violence on Oct. 7" — as part of his Instagram post.

"Perhaps this article will finally make them realize they got it wrong and come to terms with their unconscious bias," Schwimmer added.

In November, tech icon Sheryl Sandberg wrote a CNN op-ed that took the same route as Schwimmer's Instagram post, saying the "silence on these war crimes is deafening." In the wake of Sandberg's piece, co-host of "The View" Whoopi Goldberg suggested that condemning Hamas' rape and sexual assault of Israeli women could "exacerbate" the terror group's fury amid the Israel-Hamas war.

Last month, NewsNation's Chris Cuomo said he watched raw Oct. 7 video that showed Hamas "enjoyed mutilating" Jews and held their "heads and bloody corpses" as "trophies."

Schwimmer also called the presidents of Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology "morally bankrupt" in early December amid their highly criticized congressional testimonies about anti-Semitism on their college campuses.

"Incapable of answering even the most direct 'yes' or 'no' questions, watch them duck and smirk at the unbridled anti-Semitism and calls for genocide on their campuses. Where is the outrage among students, faculty, and alumni demanding their resignations, an official apology, and enforcement of the codes of conduct?" he asked. "Silence is complicity."

Harvard's President Claudine Gay resigned Tuesday, although her exit came amid mounting plagiarism accusations. Penn's President Elizabeth Magill resigned in early December, just days after her congressional testimony.
