Regev blasts ‘cowardly’ decision to keep her away from Ophir Awards
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleCulture Minister Miri Regev says the Israeli film academy is being “cowardly” in deciding to not invite her to this year’s Ophir Awards ceremony.
She says it is a “cowardly and undemocratic decision by a body that disregards the positions of the public and its representatives.
“The only purpose of the decision was to prevent the public from hearing my just position — that films that spread evil and lying defamation of IDF soldiers should’t be funded by the state budget,” she says.
