Angelina Jolie has been influenced by anti-Semitic people: Jon Voight

Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has been vocal about her support for Palestine. She recently condemned attacks by the Israeli armed forces in Gaza on her Instagram story. 

Her father Jon Voight is however displeased with Angelina over her stance. He stated that her association with the United Nations (UN) bodies over the last 2 decades has resulted in the opinions she has formed. “I love my daughter. I don’t want to fight with my daughter. But the fact is, I think she has been influenced by the U.N. From the beginning, it’s been awful with human rights. They call it human rights, but it’s just anti-Israel bashing. She’s ignorant of what the real stakes are and what the real story is because she’s in the loop of the United Nations. Maybe we shouldn’t talk about all this politics stuff,” Jon said in an interaction with Variety.

Jon alleged that Angelina has been susceptible to the influence of the opinions held by anti semitic people. It is noteworthy that both Jon and Angelina were raised as per catholic tradition. “She has been exposed to propaganda. She’s been influenced by antisemitic people. Angie has a connection to the U.N., and she’s enjoyed speaking out for refugees. But these people are not refugees… Angie, I think she hasn’t been available to this information because in Hollywood people don’t share this kind of stuff. They’re way off. They have no idea what’s going on. It’s a bubble,” Jon added.
