Dave Chappelle calls out DJ Khaled for being ‘awfully quiet’ on Gaza
American comedian Dave Chappelle criticized Palestinian-American musician DJ Khaled during a Friday show in Abu Dhabi, calling out his silence on Gaza, according to The National.
While joking about U.S. President Donald Trump’s handling of the 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, an audience member shouted DJ Khaled’s name, prompting Chappelle to respond.
Four arrested in Istanbul over cartoons depicting prophets
Turkish authorities apprehended four individuals in Istanbul on Tuesday who allegedly drew a cartoon for satirical magazine LeMan last week, depicting the Prophet Muhammad and Prophet Moses shaking hands as missiles fly in the sky above them.
Protests in Istanbul ensued, and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called the cartoon, “a clear provocation disguised as humour, a vile provocation.”
