Jon Voight is a true patriot, and he, unlike most of Hollywood, lost many roles away simply for telling the world what he believes. This is not allowed in Democrat controlled Hollywood. In Hollywood, you have to hate freedom, detest the United States, and be disgusted by everything that Israel does. This includes Israel defending themselves. As a result, the Left constantly attack the man…
Angelina Jolie and her father, Jon Voight, recently made headlines due to their contrasting opinions on the Israel-Hamas conflict. In an interview with Variety, Voight, an 85-year-old Oscar-winning actor known for his role in “Deliverance,” expressed disappointment in Jolie’s call for a ceasefire in October. He accused his daughter of being swayed by “propaganda” and influenced by “antisemitic people,” citing her involvement with the United Nations as a factor in her perspective.

Jolie, 49, responded to the October 7 attack by Hamas on Israel through an Instagram post, calling the event an “act of terror.” However, she also voiced concern over the humanitarian situation in Gaza, condemning the loss of innocent lives and the harsh conditions faced by civilians. Jolie highlighted the plight of those in Gaza, noting their lack of access to essential resources and the inability to seek refuge. She emphasized the equal value of Palestinian and Israeli lives, urging for a compassionate response to the crisis.
Voight, a strong supporter of Israel, expressed love for his daughter but criticized her understanding of the conflict. He suggested that Jolie’s Hollywood background and her role in the United Nations have isolated her from the realities on the ground. According to Voight, people in Hollywood live in a “bubble” and are often out of touch with the true nature of such conflicts.

The father-daughter relationship has had its ups and downs. In 2002, Voight spoke publicly about being estranged from Jolie, describing her as having “serious mental problems.” Despite these challenges, they have worked to repair their relationship over the years.

She acknowledged that while they struggle with political discussions, they can communicate well about artistic matters.
