In my opinion,   Jon Voight is the most pro-Israel person in Hollywood.    A REAL friend of Israel!   Jon Voight is a rare exception to the rule in Hollywood,   which is overwhelmingly leftist.    Jon Voight is a true American Patriot!

From what I read about him he has had quite a shift in his policy over the years moving from a liberal to some sort of conservative.. On Israel however he seems to be more consistent with his support... The fact he speaks out as he does coming from the entertainment industry says a great deal since I am sure it's not winning him any popularity contests... I believe I have seen him and have even heard him on the Glen Beck shows and  he seems to be dedicated in his positions...

I love John Voight.... His support of the Jewish people is noble... He has been involved with the Chabad telethon for several years...

Yes, my friends, Jon Voight is a Noahide, who has dedicated his life to helping others; speaking of and practicing the Seven Noahide Laws, and seeking justice for those to weak to seek it themselves.

Jon Voight along with Sylvester Stallone and Paula Abdul were part of the "Live for Sderot" concert, which was held in Los Angeles and dedicated to the children of the Qassam-battered town.  It was the opening ceremony for Israel's 60th anniversary celebrations supported by many in Hollywood.

Mr. Voight has been part of Chabad’s “L'chaim to Life Telethon” for nearly 20 years and considers it an honor to participate.

Like many in Hollywood Mr. Voight could have promoted causes that don’t truly benefit Mankind but instead he dedicated much of his time to charity work. A journalist visitor to his home would later note the posters on his wall - Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King.  Mr. Voight's role models are hard to live up to, but he has tried, variously working to help drug victims in rehab, the homeless, the farmers, immigrants, the elderly, Vietnam veterans, Native Americans, the children of Chernobyl and, especially, kids in general. Often his charity work has tied in with his film work, and vice versa.

True Jon Voight is an extreme pro Israel to bad they're not enough Jews who think like him.He's also very pro U.S.

Voight seems to be the exact opposite of his daughter Angelina Jolie.
