Porn producer and performer Michael Lucas has written his name upon an Israel Defense Forces missile to be used in the continued destruction of Gaza by the State of Israel. Written in response to transphobic MMA fighter Jake Shields, after he alleged his name was also being written on missiles (but without his permission), Michael shared the image of a missile on X.com which later was confirmed to have been written by his own hand:
‘Hahaha I actually asked to write my name. Got a pic before and after. Did you get them too? Amazing difference!’
Performers Cut Ties With Lucas
Michael’s tweet has led to many performers and crew within the porn industry distancing themselves from Michael, calling for a boycott of his productions. Some have even removed any content they own featuring Michael Lucas as a performer. Shahrokh Mosavinejad, Sean Xavier, Jafar Azeezi, Kane Fox, Pierre Fitch, Ben Fox and Carnal Media’s Eddie Patrick all have criticized Michael for calls to “incite violence” and for being a “genocide supporter”:
20,000 Palestinians killed in #Gaza @MichaelLucasNYC and anyone who thinks writing notes on missiles is some kind of sick flex is an accessory to murder and genocide of innocent #Palestinian civilians in my book. #boycottmichaellucas #boycottLucasEntertainment https://t.co/6bEFFyYaGD

“You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”
Nothing new from you, seeing as you are widely known in this industry as a deranged and cruel individual who only cares for those he can exploit.
Seeing as the innocents in Gaza are…

Hi everyone – I just want to let you know, I have taken down all content with Michael Lucas.
As a small creator, I am sometimes scared to speak up about what I believe to be right.
But I have realised this isn’t about me. This isn’t even about my beliefs. This is about…

I don’t want to draw more attention to the post; I find it both saddening and reprehensible.
For those that are inquiring, I will no longer be promoting my work with that studio, nor accepting future offers to work with them.
If you’re compelled to action, might I recommend…

Lucas Has A Long History of Controversy…
…and sadly, still has a career.
Michael told the New York Post that the people who are criticizing him are “nothing but vile anti-Semites”:
‘There is no other explanation for such hate for Israelis and such support for people who would murder Jews and gays in the most barbaric ways. I am not intimidated by this and I won’t delete the tweet no matter how many threats I continue to receive.’
Lucas has always been a vocal supporter of the State of Israel, holds Israeli citizenship and has created many films detailing his love for Israel due to its relatively progressive stance on LGBTIQ+ rights in comparison to Israel’s neighbors. He’s made many Islamophobic statements in the past, including that Muslims “vomit on gays.”

Now seems like a good time to recount the litany of other controversies surrounding the controversial producer. Among many allegations he’s faced, one of the most chilling is that he’s been accused of almost killing performer Geordie Jackson after Michael allegedly injected Geordie with a lethal dose of Trimix, something which other performers have claimed has occurred on set in previous Lucas Entertainment productions.
Just a Quick Recap On What Lucas Is Making Jokes About
The War on Gaza is the latest in a long history of aggression from the State of Israel upon the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Since the Arab-Israeli War of 1948, these wars have lead to the mass displacement and dispossession of Palestinians. On October 7 2023, paramilitary wings of Hamas opened fire upon several Israeli civilian communities, military bases and a music festival in Re’im resulting in the death of approximately 1200 people, the deadliest attack in the history of Israel since its foundation. Additionally approximately 250 Israeli civilians and soldiers were taken hostage.

Since then, Israel has bombed Gaza as a form of collective punishment upon the citizens of Gaza. These bombings have killed over 22,141 people at the time of writing, mostly women and children. 1139 Israelis have been killed since October 7th at the time of writing. Additionally, 69 journalists and media professionals, of whom the majority were Palestinian, have been killed. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has labelled this “the deadliest period of journalists since CPJ began gathering data in 1992.”
Michael Lucas made the following comments after images emerged of Palestinian detainees in their underwear. Israel army spokesperson Daniel Hagari stated that they were detained to interrogate potential links to Hamas. This has been disputed by the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor as well as Hamas.
Terrorists are fat! I thought Palestinians are starving.. They got lots of food in those tunnels.
