Stand by Kashmir, speak for them, reads the TV actor’s latest Facebook post after lifting of three-day ban.

Three days after putting up with Facebook ban, Hamza Ali Abbasi returned to the popular social media on Tuesday with shattering criticism against the Israeli and Indian governments, calling them both Zionist.

“We can standby the truth and tell them that Bush is a terrorist, Blair is a terrorist, Israel and Modi Govt are both Zionist terrorists,” Hamza wrote in his latest post.

The social media giant had banned the actor’s personal account for three days for praising Kashmiri rebel leader Burhan Wani.

“My FB account deactivated for talking about Kashmir,” Hamza had claimed in a Tweet.

The actor, whose social media posts have made him 'controversial', asked his fans and followers to either become slaves of “Mark Zuckerberg and the likes” or “stand by the truth".

"Stand by Kashmir, speak for them, that's the least we can do."

Hamza Ali Abbasi's Facebook account suspended for three days

The 22-year-old commander of the region’s largest rebel group, Hizbul Mujahideen was killed in a brief gunfight with Indian forces on July 8.

His death sparked clashes in which over 50 people have so far been killed, and more than 3,000 people, including about 200 police officers, injured.

Rajesh | 7 years ago | Reply Arre bhai Hamza do not expect anything from India in return why you people expect cricketing ties; why you expect visa from us; why you expect treatment in India; why your people are making a beeline in India for acting in films to commentating in cricket to judging the shows. Double standards.

SKS | 7 years ago | Reply Dear Hamza, by your logic the perpetrators of APS should also be 'warriors', when will Pakistan learn not to support VIOLENCE in whatever cause. I feel Hamza is an classic example of seeing everything as black & white and irony is that so many people appreciate his naive & hateful comments. I have lost hope on PK to be sane & humane like normal people.

Rajesh | 7 years ago | Reply Man you have no future in bollywood

Haramullah Fattuddin | 7 years ago | Reply @Ajeet: No Sir, Whatever Pakistanis do, let them do it. You can not expect anything constructive. We should follow the rule of law all over India including Kashmir.

AM | 7 years ago | Reply HUH? how can Hindu be Zionist? does he even know what zionist stand for? kuch bhi

Meer | 7 years ago | Reply Poor frustrated hamza. What else can he do?

AD | 7 years ago | Reply He is just trying to cover up lost ground due to his Ahmadiya mess up. Proven formula to be in good books of establishment and public.

Plal | 7 years ago | Reply Question to be asked..How Hamza has categorized Pakistani Civilian and Military leaders for what they have been doing to Baluchistan since 1947-,Military operations and Air strikes ,killing prominent Baluch leaders

SarahdPaar | 7 years ago | Reply The very fact that he is using Facebook an invention of the west to express his views and vent his anger against the creator of Facebook zuckerberg and all other people shows his double standards, which speaks volumes of the double games Pakistan has mastered ..beg for loans from the west and keep conspiring against them. But now not for long as now your game is over. By the way salute to the freedom fighters who killed two army personell in Karachi yesterday. If Buran wali is a freedom fighter they are too.

Ajeet | 7 years ago | Reply The more the Pakistanis do idiotic stuffs, the more we will pinch the kashmiris as it makes Pakistan cry.

Mustafa Kashmiri | 7 years ago | Reply I can bet my life savings...He would have not even read the UN resolution once like majority of Pakistan and just is disillusioned due to his indoctrinated religious bias which has blocking his objective thoughts...Unfortunate for Pakistan to have people like him who have to be looked upon for inspiration. @ malik saab...your comment nailed it..Unfortunately Pakistan doesn't have too many of your logical and objective thinking people...everone thinks from every where except using common sense and brain.

Agate | 7 years ago | Reply I am a Pakistani and I believe that Hamza Ali Abbasi should not pass same kind of comments against India again and again,since Indian actors don't pass such comments about Pakistan.

Amin Daha | 7 years ago | Reply Well done Hamza Abbasi.

Waqas Ahmed | 7 years ago | Reply Hamza is a brave man unlike most of those selfish, materialists self obsessive actors that sell themselves to get a movie in Bollywood. The guy has actually put his career on the line to speak up the truth. More power to Hamza!!

HBK | 7 years ago | Reply If u guys have so much problem with India, then don't ask India for Cricket series, don't ask for indian visa for work or treatment

Shameless | 7 years ago | Reply @Anon: Working on it bro. We have our own baygherats. Dr. Subramanian Swami of BJP, a year ago, said in a television interview that the only solution to the Kashmir problem is a decisive war against Pakistan and latter must be nuked if India is interested in a peaceful Subcontinent. It reflects the mindset of Indian leadership and their interest for the peace but still if someone is interested in presenting the other cheek to the Indian hardliners then he is certainly living in a fools’ paradise.

Anon | 7 years ago | Reply @shameless......if you are so concerned, then tell pak artists, actors not to run after India

pk | 7 years ago | Reply As M.J. Akbar aptly said, the real issue is not Kashmir but the state of mind between two nations. One believes in universal brotherhood & another believes in divisions. His facebook post shows his religious indoctrination which doesn't condemn enemies action but his faith. What we are seeing in world today is just larger manifestation of his view.

Pakistani | 7 years ago | Reply way to go Hamza Bhai!!

Malik Saab | 7 years ago | Reply With these tweets we will isolate ourself more on the world stage. You will not see an Indian celebrity calling the whole elected Government of Pakistan as a terrorist even when Christian colonies were destroyed and many minority members were killed during this tenure. We should respect the mandate of Indian people. We cannot generalize the democratically elected government of one country. Also Isreal is a whole country where millions of children and innocent people live as people. So according to Hamza they are all terrorists as well?. Also Israel has a 18 percent Muslim population. So these 18 percent Muslim residents of Israel are now deemed as terrorists according to Hamza.? As Hamza called the whole country Israel with millions of residents as Terrorists. This include Muslim residents of Israel as well?. We are fighting on a world stage that kindly do not generalize us at all. But in reality we are the king of generalizations. The world should not generalize Muslims according to our view, but we have the right to generalize all countries and communities according to our will?. No one should call the whole Pakistan as terrorist due to some terror act of Taliban, but Israel should be called as a terrorist country as a whole because of Minority Zionist members???

Shameless | 7 years ago | Reply So true.! finally someone said it. Hamza for PM. Lets see how many more years these so called Muslim actors in bollywood keep quiet for atrocities in Kashmir. They can make movies against Pakistan but not against Indian terrorism.
