Hollywood Unites in Condemnation of Oscar Winner's Controversial Speech

Over 1,000 industry insiders sign letter denouncing Jonathan Glazer's comments equating the Holocaust with Israel-Gaza conflict.

Over 1,000 Hollywood creatives have signed an open letter denouncing Jonathan Glazer's Oscar speech for equating the Holocaust with the Israel-Gaza conflict, fueling anti-Jewish sentiments.
The controversy began when Glazer, after winning an Oscar for 'The Zone of Interest,' criticized the use of the Holocaust to justify the Israel-Hamas war, sparking widespread outrage.
Hollywood's response includes a letter refuting Glazer's comparison and defending Israel's actions as self-defense against Hamas, emphasizing the need for the Jewish State of Israel.
The open letter's signatories have doubled overnight, including high-profile names like Debra Messing and Michael Rapaport, as the issue continues to gain attention.
Critics of Glazer's speech, including Holocaust survivors and Jewish organizations, argue that it is factually incorrect and morally indefensible, emphasizing the historical right of Jewish people to the land of Israel.
