Israel’s Minister of Culture Miki Zohar threatened to revoke the Israeli citizenships of “NAZA” co-directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor. He called the documentary “shocking” and accused the filmmakers of “betraying the state.”

“The self-loathing that burns in the creators, who are willing to harm their homeland just to get applause from antisemites around the world, is inconceivable and constitutes a betrayal of the state,” Zohar wrote. “As Minister of Culture, I will act immediately to revoke the Israeli citizenship of these despicable creators for betraying the state.”
