In an rare interview, posted on YouTube, Academy Award winner - actor Jon Voight, father of actress Angelina Jolie, speaks out on behalf of Israel, the issues related to Sderot and the conflict in the Middle East.
Jon Voight is passionate about supporting Israel for “many reasons”. While not disclosing these reasons in specific terms, Mr. Voight gives us enough material to come to the conclusion that he is indeed for real when it comes to supporting Israel.
When asked by the interviewing journalist what is the reason he switched from being a “lefty to righty”, Voight explains that already after the Vietnam war, he realized the roots of the so called “anti-war” movement are Communist. The actor reiterates that Communists are good at propaganda and “that’s the real danger even today”. Again, Voight emphasizes his firml support for the success of the US-led military operation in Iraq and shares his concern that a premature pull out of the troops may lead to a civil war and a massacre of unheard proportions.
