Angelina Jolie's Dad Is Still a Warmongering Lunatic

There's a reason she doesn't use her last name.

Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight took to YouTube yesterday to voice his support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his disdain for President Barack Obama.

Voight began bluntly, declaring that “I love Israel, and I want to see Israel survive. I don’t want to see it overtaken by the mad men of this world. President Obama does not love Israel.”

The president’s “whole agenda is to control Israel,” Voight said. “In this way, he can be friends with all of Israel’s enemies.”...

Addressing the president’s decision to engage in nuclear talks with Iran, Voight said that “everyone who believes that deal-making is the solution to what Israel faces are as wrong as Neville Chamberlain believing he made a peace deal with Hitler.”

He cheered for the Vietnam and Iraq wars, but the wimpy chickenhawk never found time to put some skin in the game of war that he loves.

I like Showtimes's Ray Donovan series, and keep hoping he will get shot dead during each episode.

Why don't we ever hear about that from these guys. It is also possible that Chamberlain thought there would be a war and he needed to buy time for England to be ready to fight it. All decisions a head of state make are more complex than these idiots make out.

Another point: guess which party illegal sold arms to Iran. That's right Republicans under Ronald Reagan. Republicans also sold chemical weapons to Iraq. Hey and on top of that. So pretty much fuck you all around simple minded fool Jon Voight.
