Debbie Schlussel: More Than Skin-Deep: Jon Voight Shows Up His Skank Daughter Yet Again
Unlike his estranged daughter who openly cheered cries for Palestinian terrorism, Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight truly gets it.
Last year, I wrote about Voight's on-target interview with Radar Magazine about Iraq, the War on Terror, and jihad. Voight gets it.
And he's demonstrating that again, by visiting the poor, working-class residents of Sderot, Israel, who've repeatedly been hit with deadly rockets from Islamic terrorists in Gaza.
Most of these people from Sderot or their parents or grandparents are from Arab countries, from which they fled after much persecution. They are poor people who cannot afford to move from harm's way:
Oscar winner Jon Voight is coming to Israel next week for his first solidarity visit to salute the Jewish state in honor of its 60th birthday. . . .Voight will welcome Chabad's Children of Chernobyl's (CCOC) 80th rescue mission airlifting children from irradiated regions in Ukraine, Belarus and Western Russia to Israel; visit Sderot, which has endured 7,000 Hamas missiles and numerous casualties; comfort terror victims; and, go to Yad Vashem [DS: The Holocaust Museum].
"I'm coming to salute, encourage and strengthen the people of Israel on this joyous 60th birthday," said Voight. "This week is about highlighting Israel as a moral beacon. At a time when its enemies threaten nuclear destruction, Israel heals.
"Israel is a haven from nuclear horrors for thousands of Chernobyl survivors who suffer the consequences of the worst environmental disaster in history. I personally want to welcome the youngsters aboard Chabad's Children of Chernobyl's 80th Rescue Mission--it is a great honor to help save a child's life."
Giving back to society has long been a priority for Voight, having volunteered with and contributed to numerous charities and causes at home and abroad. His deep humanitarian values direct him to Sderot and to Chabad's Terror Victims Project (CTVP).
"I want to meet the people of Sderot," said Voight. "I want to tell them: 'Every day you have rockets falling on your city. We care about you. We have not forgotten you!' And I want to underscore Israel's magnificent contributions to mankind."
Unlike Skankelina Jolie Voight, father knows best yet again. Attention, Muslim, anti-Israel boycotters: Add him to your list. He's on my list of people to support.
Thanks to reader, "There is No Santa Claus," for the tip.
