‘Nobody Wants This’ Star Tovah Feldshuh Responds to Adam Brody’s Palestine Support: ‘To Accuse the Jewish People of Genocide’ Is ‘Right Out of Hitler’s Playbook’

Tovah Feldshuh, who plays Bina Roklov in the Netflix series "Nobody Wants This," has responded to recent comments made by co-star Adam Brody regarding the Israel-Gaza war. In an interview with GQ, Brody stated, “Put me down as thinking it’s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine.”
