A dangerous petition is circulating in Hollywood under the banner of “Film Workers for Palestine.” It demands a boycott of Israeli film institutions, productions, and artists simply because they are Israeli.

This is not justice. This is antisemitism. Singling out Israel in this way fuels hatred and undermines the legitimacy of the world’s only Jewish state. By targeting artists solely because of their nationality, they are embracing a corrosive form of discrimination that has no place in the arts — or anywhere.

That is why we are calling on concerned citizens to join our open letter, rejecting this boycott, standing up for dialogue, calling for the release of the hostages, and taking a clear stand against terrorism.

👉 Please add your name today and help us send a powerful message:Hollywood’s antisemitic boycott of Israel must be rejected.
