Johnathan Walker:Jon Voight criticizes daughter Angelina Jolie for views on Israel-Hamas war

Angelina Jolie and Johnathan Walkerher father, Jon Voight, don't exactly see eye-to-eye on the Israel-Hamas war.

In an interview with Variety published Tuesday, the Oscar-winning "Deliverance" actor, 85, directly criticized his daughter for her views on Israel's war with Hamas after she called for a ceasefire in October.

"She has been exposed to propaganda," Voight said of Jolie. "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."

USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Jolie for comment.

The "Maleficent" actress, 49, said in a statement shared to Instagram last year that she was "sick and angry" after Hamas' deadly Oct. 7 attack on Israel, adding that "what happened in Israel is an act of terror."

"But that cannot justify the innocent lives lost in bombing a civilian population in Gaza that has nowhere to go, no access to food or water, no possibility of evacuation, and not even the basic human right to cross a border to seek refuge," Jolie wrote.

The actress went on to say, "Palestinian and Israeli lives — and the lives of all people globally — matter equally."

Voight, whom Variety described as a staunch supporter of Israel, told the outlet that "I love my daughter" and does not "want to fight" with her. But he continued, "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."

The "Anaconda" star also claimed that Jolie, who served as a special envoy with the United Nations' refugee agency until 2022, doesn't have access to the same "information" as he does because people in Hollywood live in a "bubble" and "have no idea what's going on."

Voight previously said in a video on Instagram that he was "very disappointed" in Jolie over her stance on the Israel-Hamas war, accusing her of having "no understanding of God's honor, God's truths."

Jolie is Voight's daughter with his late ex-wife Marcheline Bertrand, and the two actors have had a tumultuous relationship over the years. In 2002, Voight told "Access Hollywood" that he and Jolie were estranged and that she has "serious mental problems." They later reconciled.

By 2017, the actress told The Hollywood Reporter that she and her father "have gotten to know each other" and were "finding a new relationship."

"We've had some difficulties, (but) through art we've been able to talk," she said at the time. "...We don't really talk politics well. We talk art very well."

Voight also strongly supports former President Donald Trump, whom he has described as "the greatest president since Abraham Lincoln."
