Mia Khalifa Viral Video: Mia Khalifa sparks outrage with comments on US veterans | World News – Times of India

Mia Khalifa in a video gone viral, former adult film star turned social media personality, offered harsh criticism of US military veterans, sparking fresh controversy. “Good morning to everybody who is not in the US military,” she opened, with the message swiftly turning scathing as she expressed disdain for veterans and the country’s treatment of them.
Addressing American soldiers directly, Khalifa attacked the country’s foreign wars, saying, “Good morning to everybody who is sitting at home and not on soil that doesn’t belong to them, fighting a war for a country that doesn’t care about them.” She suggested that US veterans return home mentally scarred, only to receive inadequate support from the government. “I hope you go over there and get your little brain all scrambled up with PTSD,” she said, “and then come back here and see how much the United States cares about you, Pookie.”

This latest outburst adds to a series of contentious statements Khalifa has made. The former adult actress, who first garnered infamy over a hijab scene in her films, left the industry after facing significant backlash and death threats. Her online presence now focuses on political and social commentary, often with polarising opinions. She has openly criticised the US for its international policies and remains vocal about Middle Eastern affairs, having condemned Israel in recent posts that described the situation in Palestine as an apartheid.
In the video, Khalifa implied that veterans suffering from trauma would not find the government support they might expect. “Let’s see how much the VA cares about you when you come back… They’re going to tell you to try breathing exercises because the US Government does not give a [expletive] about you once. You cannot die for them once you’re done. Once you’re a shell, they don’t care about you,” she declared.
This rhetoric comes in line with Khalifa’s broader critique of American foreign policy and her vocal opposition to the Israeli government. Khalifa recently faced backlash for remarks perceived as supportive of Hamas during their assault on Israel, including suggesting their actions resembled “a Renaissance painting” and criticising celebrities who voiced support for Israel.
While Khalifa has built a massive following on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok, her comments are often met with mixed reactions.
Social media reacts
Social media users reacted strongly to Khalifa’s comments. One user questioned her claim about war, while another called her “garbage.” Others suggested revoking her citizenship and pointed out that her freedom to speak comes from those she mocks. One commentator noted that the government’s treatment of service members during Covid reflects a broader indifference, questioning what exactly the government is doing.
