‘Nothing in the film is true’: MKs, politicians denounce NAZA film creators as 'Israel haters'
Gotliv also slammed the IDF's response, stating its silence "magnifies the horrific damage caused by this false film, which is based on Playmobil soldiers and not IDF soldiers."
Israeli politicians and public figures sharply condemned the creators of the Gaza war documentary NAZA after the film won a Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival. Former Likud MK Tally Gotliv accused the filmmakers, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, of committing an act of treason against the state and called for them to revoke their Israeli citizenship.
She argued that the film was based on fabricated claims and not on soldiers' testimonies. Gotliv also criticized Defense Minister Israel Katz and IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir for their silence on the matter. The IDF, however, rejected the film's central allegations, stating that it relied on anonymous testimonies that could not be independently verified.
Other politicians, including Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman and former IDF chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot, also denounced the filmmakers, accusing them of turning the war into a campaign of defamation against Israel and the IDF.
