Natalie Portman quotes - page 4

Israeli-American actress Natalie Portman again lashed at Israeli policies in an interview published in a Palestinian-owned newspaper Thursday, calling the controversial Nation-State Law "racist" and a "mistake." Portman, born Neta-Lee Hershlag in Jerusalem, also told the London-based Al- Quds Al-Arabi that law "oppressed Palestinians.”... The Nation-State Law... defines Israel as "the national home of the Jewish people.” It also drops Arabic as an official language... it has stoked anger among critics who, like Portman, argue that it is racist. Portman said she "doesn't agree” with the principle of the contentious law. "It's a mistake... I only hope that we will really love our neighbors and work together," she said. (Natalie Portman)
