ONE Direction star Zayn Malik has received death threats after sending out a pro-Palestine tweet.
Malik, who was raised Muslim, was bombarded with death threats and complaints after he tweeted the hashtag "#Free Palestine" to his 13 million followers.
Malik, whose message was retweeted 140,000 times and favourited 150,000 times, was not so popular with a large number of his fans.
"U have fans in #Israel. It broke me that one of my idols wand me to die @benwinstone @harry_styles @onedirection [sic]," one of the lighter tweets at him read.

Others from pro-Israel fans included calls for him to "kill himself" or to let them kill him instead.
Of course, Malik isn't the first star to tweet about the conflict. Rihanna also made the same mistake when she posted the same message via her official account, only to delete it minutes later after she copped a hammering from fans online.
She quickly replaced the tweet with, "Let's pray for peace and a swift end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict! Is there any hope?"

Meanwhile British talk show host Piers Morgan was branded "Zionist scum" for his stream of tweets on the Israel-Gaza situation, in which he stated, "I like Jews. I like Arabs" and "Same nonsense made Northern Ireland a murderous tinderbox for 30 years."
