Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has attacked the makers of the documentary NAZA, accusing the award-winning film of contributing to “global antisemitic incitement”.
“It’s shocking. We are fighting global antisemitic incitement and when it comes from within us it is intolerable,” Netanyahu said in a video posted on Telegram. “And now two Israeli directors portraying the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) as war criminals receive applause at the Venice festival.”
