Voice actress says she was fired from YouTube show ‘for being Jewish’

On Friday, Strong posted on X, "Just found out on Twitter!" regarding her termination. "This is what happens when you help fans get shows made I guess. Fired for being Jewish. Glad I helped you get your kickstarter money. Please lose my email address & pray for my family in Israel and in Gaza. & #prayforpeace."

Strong, who has voiced iconic characters such as Batgirl and Harley Quinn as well as characters on the Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon, including "The PowerPuff Girls," "Rugrats," and "Teen Titans" wrote the post in response to an announcement that the role would be recast.

Strong had previously written multiple posts slamming the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists in Israel against civilians on Oct 7. She wrote in one of the posts, "For those who support the actions of #Hamas; when they infiltrate your hometown, on your soil, break into Jewish homes, raping, beheading innocent babies, will you applaud them? Will you wave their flag while they slaughter Christians & Muslims who don’t believe their ideologies?”

In another, she wrote, "World’s gone crazy. People ARGUING online about whether or not the mass raping, shooting & kidnapping of innocent young women from around the world at a music festival is justified! Could happen at ANY music festival! Supporting terrorists empowers them & that’s globally terrifying."

In response to news of the veteran actor’s termination, fans bashed Boxtown in comments on the company’s post.

On Monday, Boxtown's account confirmed on X that the decision was due to the Jewish star’s social media posts surrounding the Israel-Hamas war. "This decision was due to a trend among Tara's recent online activity, including posts that promote controversial messages regarding the peoples of Palestine currently being affected by the ongoing Israel-Palestine crisis.”
