Veteran actor Jon Voight on Friday publicly voiced his disappointment in his daughter, actress Angelina Jolie, and others like her who are demanding an immediate ceasefire in the Israel–Hamas war.
“I’m very disappointed that my daughter, like so many, has no understanding of God’s honor, God’s truths. This is about destroying the history of God’s land, the Holy land, the land of the Jews,” said Mr. Voight in a post on the social media platform X. He titled the post “Truth and Lies.”

Not ‘What the Left Thinks’

“This is justice for God’s children of the Holy Land—Israel, the Israeli Amy must protect thy soil, thy people, this is war,” he continued. “It’s not gonna be what the Left thinks. It can’t be civil now. Israel was attacked by inhuman terror on innocent babies, mothers, fathers, grandparents. And you fools calling Israel the problem. You should look at yourselves and ask, ‘Who am I? What am I?’ and ask God, ‘Am I learning the truths, or am I being lied to and following everyone else? ... These animals want to wipe out Jews, Christians.”
