meryl-streep

I don’t know if Meryl Streep really understood that severing Jerusalem from Israel is a tactic of anti-Zionists when she stated Portman’s place of birth as Jerusalem, not Israel.

Maybe she’s just another moonbat Hollywood ignorant celeb.

But her comments were not appreciated.

Via Algemeiner.

Mega movie star Meryl Streep was attacked as an “anti-Zionist” on social media this week for referring to fellow actress Natalie Portman’s birthplace as “Jerusalem,” without mentioning Israel.

At the 2017 Golden Globes on Sunday evening, Streep…made this distinction while delivering her acceptance speech, a major portion of which was aimed at criticizing President-elect Donald Trump. One way she did this was to say, “Hollywood is crawling with outsiders and foreigners,” referring to the view of key players in the industry that the soon-to-be US leader is anti-immigration.

To illustrate her claim, Streep named a number of her peers present, who hailed from other countries. She pointed to Amy Adams, who was born in Venice, Italy; she mentioned Ruth Negga, from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; she noted Dev Patel, from Kenya; and Ryan Gosling who, “like all the nicest people,” was born in Canada. When she brought up Portman, however, she only stated that the “Jackie” star was born in Jerusalem….

    I hope and pray that the Trump Administration moves the U.S.Embassy to Jerusalem asap.

    Streep’s statement of just Jerusalem, knowingly or not, is the official U.S. government position (Shifra link). Trump can change that on day 1, saying that Israel can be listed on passports of U.S. citizens born in Jerusalem.

    Anybody remember the grand old SCTV comedy show? Here’s a YouTube clip from 1981, a Farm Film Report in which Meryl Streep blows up real good.
