Angelina Jolie's dad Jon Voight pours fuel on vicious family feud with daughter as he insults her political view

Angelina Jolie's father has poured fuel on the fire of their family feud - marking a return to hostilities after tensions appeared to have cooled off.

Jon Voight, 85, claimed his daughter's views on the Israel-Hamas war have been 'influenced by anti-Semitic people' during a fiery interview with Variety.

'She has been exposed to propaganda,' right-wing pro-Israel firebrand Voight said.  'She's been influenced by anti-Semitic people.

'Angie has a connection to the U.N., and she's enjoyed speaking out for refugees. But these people are not refugees.' 

Although the father-daughter duo have had moments of reconciliation throughout their strained relationship, they have also experienced many turbulent moments that have led to them becoming estranged.

But Voight's latest incendiary comment came less than a month after he said he was 'proud' of Jolie and his granddaughter Vivienne after they stole the spotlight at the 2024 Tony Awards with their remarkable victory. 

The mother-daughter duo produced the musical The Outsiders, which won four trophies, including the top honor of Best Musical. 

'I'm very proud of Vivienne,' Oscar winner Voight, 85, told TMZ afterward. 'I'm really proud of Angie because she really tries to encourage each of the kids to be what they want to be.'

Angelina, 49, and her ex Brad Pitt, 60, share six children together: Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 15. 

'I'm sure Angie contributed with the actors and Angie's a great director,' Voight continued to gush over the Maleficent star.

Jolie reportedly severed ties again with her famous father in the early 2000s

Earlier this year, Pitt experienced an 'awkward run-in' with his former in-laws while attending a small gallery exhibition in Beverly Hills amid his divorce from Jolie. 

While on a date night with his new girlfriend Ines de Ramon, the two-time Oscar winner, 60, bumped into his ex-wife's father, Jon Voight, and older brother James Haven.

The chance encounter occurred as they browsed through the Gagosian Gallery for an exhibition by his Moneyball director, Bennett Miller. 

Showbiz411 was first to break the news as the outlet shared: 'Pitt and Voight actually hugged and spoke to each other.'

An eyewitness told The Sun: 'Plenty of people noticed how awkward it was that Brad was in the same room as Ange's family, and it's not a big space.'

Angelina Jolie and her father, Jon Voight, have had a tense relationship for most of her 48-year life

Voight's relationship with his own daughter has arguably been even less cordial. 

They were in contact briefly during the filming of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider in 2001, but Jolie reportedly severed ties again with her famous father in the early 2000s.

'We don't really speak that much anymore,' the Changeling star told Vogue in 2002, shortly after starring in the Lara Croft film. 

And Voight's Variety comment wasn't the first time he has openly slammed Jolie's stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict. 

In the aftermath of October 7, Voight slammed Jolie for her anti-Israel posts, branding them as 'lies' and saying 'the Israeli army must protect thy soil.'

'I am very disappointed that my daughter, like so many, has no understanding of God's honor, God's truths,' he said in an Instagram video posted early November.

Jolie is formerly a special envoy of the UN High Commission for Refugees.

She accused Israel of 'deliberately bombing children, women, families, deprived of food, medicine and humanitarian aid' in violation of the international law.

In response, Voight said he was 'disappointed' that his daughter did not understand that Hamas' objective was 'to annihilate the land of the Jews.'

'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,' Voight continued.

'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.

'Israel was attacked by inhuman terror on innocent babies, mothers, fathers, grandparents,' Voight noted.

'You fools call Israel the problem, you should look at yourself and ask who am I? What am I? And ask God if am I learning the truth, or am I being lied to and following everyone else? The ones who understand truth see the lie.'

'These animals want to wipe out Jews, Christians,' he went on. 'They see that the Palestinians have not been neglected of finance. They have been given huge infusions of money, that they didn't share with the people. They made weapons instead, for their rage.

'The people of Israel care for people. They love and cherish. Something these animals don't understand. Justice will prevail.'

Voight called for Jolie to reassess her opinion on Israel's role in the war: 'Hamas and this deceit of their ruling is destroying their own people,' he added.

He also hailed the 'great heroism' of Jewish people in the face of a series of tragedies throughout history, from the Holocaust to the recent 'Hamas Holocaust.'
