Israeli comedy has found humor amid war and tragedy, with comedians using satire to provide relief and commentary on current events. Following the massacre by Hamas and the outbreak of war, many Israelis initially felt that laughter was impossible. However, Israeli comedy gradually returned, focusing on topics such as woke campus protesters and foreign coverage of the war. Comedians made fun of the BBC, Columbia students, and antisemitism in sketches that went viral. The comedy shifted from making fun of themselves to making fun of their enemies or those who collaborated with them. Israeli comedy has provided a way for people to find relief and cope with the grief and tragedy they have experienced.
