Oscar-winning actor Javier Bardem was practically played off of The View while speaking out in support of Gaza.

When Ana Navarro inquired about his activism, the actor emphasized the necessity for individuals to “draw a line in the sand” to ensure that elected representatives recognize that “we are the voice and they have to hear us.” He linked this to the conflict in Gaza, criticizing the United States and Europe for allowing Israel to have “impunity” in its sustained attacks on Gaza.

However, The View interrupted the actor with its commercial break music, cutting to commercial abruptly just as he was making his concluding remarks.

While he was discussing “the situation in Gaza,” Bardem noted the yellow pins worn by Alyssa Farah Griffin and Sara Haines each day on the show as a gesture of support for the hostages held in Gaza.

“I see your [pins] and, of course, they have to return those hostages obviously,” he said. “But the situation in Gaza has come to a term now where I cannot express the pain that I, along with many millions of people there, suffer on a daily basis watching those horrible images of children being murdered and starving to death.”

Bardem later claimed that holocaust survivors, as well as several experts in international law and human rights, are calling the campaign a “genocide.”

“And if you ask me, I believe it’s a genocide, why is that?” he stated. “First of all, because the impunity that is taking Israel in doing these actions, and the lack of action on any government of course the back up of the United States with all those weapons and the economics, and also the silence of Europe, is creating a scenario where there is such impunity that if we really don’t do something about that we are going towards, well, what is happening now.”

The View hosts did not have a chance to respond to Bardem’s statements, but they were seen nodding along as Bardem continued.

Whoopi Goldberg then cut in to throw it to the commercial break, as she typically does. But Bardem took another moment to finish his final point.

“And also, with this I will finish, the most important thing is to not lose the humanity and really denounce when we have to denounce and who we have to denounce,” he said.

Goldberg seemingly invited Bardem back onto the show as she said, “Javier, come back.” But her statement was interrupted as the broadcast cut straight to commercial.

The actor received a smattering of applause before the commercial break, but that marked the end of his interview as the show later returned with a shopping segment.

The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
