Israeli Activist Slams Jewish Actor Adam Brody for 'Free Palestine' Remarks
Yoseph Haddad, a prominent Israeli activist and the second-highest-ranking official in the 'Am Israel' party, has strongly criticized American-Jewish actor Adam Brody for expressing support for a 'Free Palestine.' Haddad took to social media to condemn Brody's statements, calling him a 'big idiot' and a 'useful idiot.'
Haddad accused Brody of prioritizing applause from his 'submissive Hollywood bubble' over truth and reality, suggesting the actor would 'lick' those who wish him dead to achieve career success. Haddad also equated anti-Zionism with antisemitism in his critique.
Brody, who plays a rabbi in the Netflix hit 'The Chosen,' stated in an interview with GQ magazine that he believes the situation in Gaza constitutes genocide and that he desires a 'Free Palestine.' He expressed hope that a different administration could rectify the policies contributing to the dire circumstances.
Brody's comments follow similar sentiments from other Hollywood figures, including actresses Susan Sarandon and Hannah Einbinder, who were arrested protesting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's appearance at the UN General Assembly in New York. Some social media users criticized Brody, with one suggesting he 'mistakenly received the right to be Jewish,' while others defended the show's creator, who is Jewish and supportive of Israel.
