A clandestine undertaking on behalf of Israel, the Jets and the Jews.

 
Pro-Israel Hollywood Jew. Really.

Natalie Portman is a very rare creature, a Jewish star who actually expresses support for Israel. She even says that Israel's current situation is "an issue of survival." Hasn't she heard from her co-stars, directors and producers that Israel is an illegitimate, colonialist occupier whose counterterrorism activities are actually war crimes?

Apparently not. As Ynet reports:

Portman said in a recent interview that she has become more pro-active in defense of Israel, which she considers home.

"I'm currently exploring ways to help because I love my country," said Portman. Speaking about how she has to defend Israel when someone attacks it, Portman has increasingly become more involved.

"These issues come up at parties and dinners with people who don't know a lot, and as someone who was born in Israel, you're put in a position of defending Israel because you know how much is at stake. It's become a much bigger part of my identity in recent years because it's become an issue of survival," Portman related.
