7. They don't object to the film itself
From the ADL statement:

"Our objections are to the venue and sponsorship of this film."

From the AJC statement:

"No one is challenging the right of viewers to see 'Miral' in theaters or anywhere else they like. The only question here is whether the UN General Assembly Hall is an appropriate place to premiere this particular film and no other, and whether the President of the General Assembly should be sponsoring the showing."
