Israeli minister threatens to strip Israeli film-makers of citizenship over Gaza documentary NAZA

Statelessness is the ultimate danger to human rights. In Canada the government will not allow you to relinquish your citizenship unless you have secured another. The primary reason is that having state insures that someone will ensure your human rights. To threaten human rights is very apish. Almost inhuman. The irony is uncomfortable.

Is that supposed to be a threat? Better to be stateless than Israeli.

Well, I wouldn’t want my taxes go the IDF.

That’s how you know a movie is good!

Word. Streisand Effect, Miki Zohar!

I haven’t watched it yet.

Considering it had its world premiere just 4 days ago on an exclusive film festival, that is not surprising.

I just hope I'll remember when it becomes widely available.

Here's an early excerpt

I was curious as to how the legal ability to revoke a Jewish Israeli’s Israeli citizenship squares with Aliyah. It does not apply to people who:

engage in activity directed against the Jewish people;

may endanger public health or the security of the state;

have a criminal past, likely to endanger public welfare.

Which sounds reasonable, but people definitely acquire Israeli citizenship to avoid criminal prosecution in other countries.

So very nazi of them! I'd say I'm surprised but... nazis being nazis nowadays is... not that surprising.

o7 The world needs more human beings who are this brave. I'm adding this movie to my list of things to watch.

Great job helping advertise the film!
