UCLA hosts screening of Jewish transsexual director's anti-Israel documentary

In an example of how many LGBT activists are very anti-Semitic - and self-hating Jews to boot - one of them made an anti-Israeli documentary, and the UCLA was only too eager to screen it:
A University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) professor hosted a screening Wednesday of a film, which many activists believe is anti-Israel, created by a Jewish transgender director.

The film “Israelism” follows the story of two American Jews who go from staunch supporters of Israel to “battling the old guard to fight for Palestinian equality,” according to the event page’s description. Jewish professor Dov Waxman, the chair for the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation in Israel Studies, hosted a screening of the movie and a question and answer session with director Eric Axelman, who is Jewish and transgender.

“Israelism explores the past, present and future of the relationship between American Jews and Israel,” the event page reads. “Dozens of American Jewish thinkers, community leaders and activists share stories of falling in and out of love with Israel, and competing visions for a Jewish future, while Israelis and Palestinians describe how their lives are affected by the decisions of a community half a world away.”

In the film, Simone Zimmerman goes to college in America and Eitan joins the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Both witness “Israel’s mistreatment of the Palestinian people” and eventually conclude that the “Jewish institutions” that raised them “built their Jewish identity around a lie,” according to IMDB.

[...] The film has been criticized for its “anti-Israel” views by some in the Jewish community. David Suissa, the editor-in-chief of the Jewish Journal, wrote that the film portrays an intentionally biased portrait of Israel.

“I felt bad for the filmmakers because I could feel the exertion they must have gone through to stick to only one side of the story,” Suissa wrote. “There is no mention, for instance, of the UN role in the creation of Israel, Arab aggression at the birth of the state, chronic Palestinian terror and rejection of peace offers, the denial of any Jewish connection to Jerusalem, and on and on. These facts are so well known, I could almost feel the filmmakers asking themselves: ‘Should we include some of this stuff just to appear more balanced and credible?'”
What's additionally head-shaking is that Abraham Foxman, the former ADL chief, actually agreed to an interview here, and claims he did so "innocently" despite supposedly being dismayed at the end result. But he was so pretentious in his time, it's hard to believe he didn't realize what was going on. He's probably just trying to do "damage control" after all the trouble he caused.

This is another sample of how, not only are many LGBT advocates anti-Israel, but there's also self-hating Jews among them who take up their lifestyle practices for the sake of destroying the country. And universities like the UCLA are only too willing to uphold their loathsome propaganda products.
