The Lie:
- Ms. Rachel loves all children – she can’t be Antisemitic!
The Truth
- Ms. Rachel may have a beloved children’s TV show, but that does not make her immune from scrutiny when she spreads misinformation, aligns with Hamas-linked networks, or amplifies rhetoric rooted in modern blood libel.
Background
- In December 2025, Ms. Rachel was named as a finalist for Antisemite of the Year by watchdog group, Stop Antisemitism, after over two years of spreading anti-Israel misinformation, elevating Hamas-aligned voices, and dismissing Jewish concerns.
- Her public persona as a gentle children’s educator has shielded her from scrutiny — even as her rhetoric has reached millions and helped mainstream antisemitic narratives.
Truth Explained
- Ms. Rachel has built a long-term record of spreading Hamas-aligned misinformation while erasing Israeli child victims. For years, she has amplified debunked atrocity images, adopted Hamas casualty narratives, and dismissed concerns from Jewish parents — rhetoric that mirrors the mechanics of modern blood libel. https://aish.com/ms-rachel-and-the-mainstreaming-of-antisemitism/ https://honestreporting.com/the-dangerous-direction-of-ms-rachels-pro-palestinian-misinformation/
- She became a spokesperson for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), a U.S. nonprofit with extensive Hamas-linked partnerships. PCRF operates inside Al-Rantisi Children’s Hospital in Gaza City, where the IDF uncovered a Hamas military compound beneath the pediatric ward — including explosives, suicide vests, operational materials, and one of the motorcycles used to carry out the attacks on October 7. PCRF collaborates with Hamas-run ministries and extremist Zakat committees — “charitable” bodies repeatedly identified by Western authorities as financial pipelines for Hamas. Senior PCRF staff have openly praised “resistance” and accused Israel of “genocide.” https://ngo-monitor.org/ngos/palestine_children_s_relief_fund_ohio_/
- Ms. Rachel repeated the false UN claim that “14,000 babies will die in 48 hours,” despite corrections. The real UN projection estimated 14,100 severe malnutrition cases over 11 months, not 48 hours. BBC and PBS corrected the error. Ms. Rachel never did, allowing the false claim to spread as proof of deliberate Israeli cruelty. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/how-one-un-leaders-mistaken-timeline-caused-confusion-about-gaza-childrens-starvation-risk
- She amplified a staged “starving baby” photo and blamed Israel for intentional child starvation. The child suffered from a congenital disorder and the photo was staged. The narrative — that Jews purposely starve babies — invokes one of the oldest antisemitic blood libels. https://aish.com/ms-rachel-and-the-mainstreaming-of-antisemitism/
- She collaborated with Motaz Azaiza, a Hamas propagandist who celebrated October 7 and praised Yahya Sinwar. Inviting him onto her platform normalized a figure who refuses to condemn the murder, torture, and kidnapping of Israeli children. https://honestreporting.com/the-dangerous-direction-of-ms-rachels-pro-palestinian-misinformation/
- Her advocacy excludes Israeli children unless publicly pressured. On October 7 — while Israeli children were being murdered, burned alive, and dragged into tunnels — she posted a hair tutorial. Only after backlash did she briefly acknowledge Israeli victims, then returned to exclusively Gaza-centred content. https://www.timesofisrael.com/social-media-star-educator-ms-rachel-draws-ire-over-appeals-for-gazan-children/
- Her Social Media Posts routinely generate replies filled with antisemitic rhetoric, creating an online ecosystem where hostility toward Jews thrives unchecked. She has allowed this environment to flourish, even as Jewish parents raise concerns about the hatred appearing under her content.https://www.rootsmetals.com/blogs/news/gaslighting-and-a-dash-of-blood-libel-ft-ms-rachel https://x.com/StopAntisemites
- A true child advocate would speak about what harms Palestinian children most: UNRWA indoctrination. She never does. A 2023 UN Watch / IMPACT-se review documented 300+ pages of UNRWA-produced lessons glorifying terrorists, urging jihad, denying Israel’s existence, and spreading violent antisemitism. 47 UNRWA teachers were caught calling for the murder of Jews; 133 more praised terrorist attacks on social media. If Ms. Rachel genuinely cared about children’s education and safety, she would confront the radicalization shaping their future. She chooses silence. https://unwatch.org/un-teachers-call-to-murder-jews-reveals-new-report/
Quotes:
- “Since 10/7, Ms. Rachel has pushed Hamas propaganda to millions – sharing debunked images, inflated casualty claims, and almost entirely ignoring Israeli child victims.” – StopAntisemitism
- “Ms. Rachel has repeatedly spread falsehoods about Israel, amplified debunked images, and platformed a Hamas defender to millions of followers.” – HonestReporting

Takeaway:
Loving children does not excuse spreading lies — and Ms. Rachel’s misinformation has fueled antisemitism, empowered Hamas narratives, and erased Israeli victims.
