Referencing Israel’s attacks on Palestine, Jolie, 48, recently criticised the ‘deliberate bombing of a trapped population’ in a lengthy Instagram post.
In a video shared on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram over the weekend, Oscar-winner Voight, 84, said his world-famous daughter has ‘no understanding of God’s honour’.
Sitting in front of an American flag in the video, captioned ‘Truth and lies’, the Midnight Cowboy actor said in full: ‘I am very disappointed that my daughter, like so many, has no understanding of God’s honour, God’s truths.’
Voight added: ‘This is about destroying the history of God’s land — the Holy Land — the land of the Jews.
‘This is justice for God’s children of the holy land.’
‘The Israeli army must protect thy soil, thy people. This is war. It’s not going to be what the left thinks — it can’t be civil now.’

Denouncing Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, Voight went on: ‘Israel was attacked by inhuman terror on innocent babies, mothers, fathers, grandparents.
‘These animals want to wipe out Jews, Christians.’
Meanwhile, Jolie said in her own social media post, uploaded on October 28: ‘This is the deliberate bombing of a trapped population who have nowhere to flee.
‘Gaza has been an open-air prison for nearly two decades and is fast becoming a mass grave. 40% of those killed are innocent children. Whole families are being murdered.’
The actress continued: ‘While the world watches and with the active support of many governments, millions of Palestinian civilians – children, women, families – are being collectively punished and dehumanized, all while being deprived food, medicine and humanitarian aid against international law.
‘By refusing to demand a humanitarian ceasefire and blocking the UN Security Council from imposing one on both parties, world leaders are complicit in these crimes.’
At the start of the week, Gaza’s Hamas-controlled health authority said more than 10,000 Palestinians had been killed by military action.
Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, has continued to shrug off calls from humanitarian agencies and peace protesters pleading for a ceasefire.
The Israel-Hamas fighting was sparked by the events of October 7, when militant group Hamas launched horrific aerial and ground attacks on Israel.
Israeli officials say at least 1,400 people – many civilians – were killed in the attacks.
