LOS ANGELES (VINnews) — Jewish actor Adam Brody, who plays a rabbi on Netflix’s hit romantic comedy “Nobody Wants This,” said in a new GQ interview that he regards Israel’s war in Gaza as a genocide and supports a “free Palestine.”

Brody, known to many viewers from “The O.C.,” told the magazine he had discussed the conflict privately but had not spoken about it much in public until now.

“Put me down as thinking it’s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine,” he said. “It’s awful that it’s taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it’s reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago. I’m hopeful that another administration can really do some good and correct some of these policies that are helping that situation be as awful as it is.”

The comments came as Brody discussed his volunteer work for the progressive group Swing Left ahead of the November midterm elections. Season 3 of “Nobody Wants This,” in which he stars opposite Kristen Bell, is scheduled to premiere Oct. 22.

Brody also said Hollywood had become more “outspokenly” conservative during President Donald Trump’s second term. He argued that after the shock of Trump’s first victory produced a wave of activism, the second term made public dissent feel riskier.

“Again, as one side has more power, it makes sense that it draws people to it for all the human reasons that would be attractive: groupthink, your own well-being, your own money and success,” he said.

Christian Toto, founder of Hollywood in Toto, disputed that framing. He told Fox News Digital that industry groupthink remains strong and that voicing hard-left views is still “the most pro-career move an actor can make in 2026,” especially among fellow performers.

Israel and its supporters reject the genocide charge. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called the accusation one of the great lies of the century, arguing that Israel is fighting Hamas, which launched the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre and continues to hold hostages. Critics of Brody’s remarks note that he plays a rabbi on a show that has generally avoided the war, and that a number of other Jewish entertainment figures have publicly rejected the genocide label.

Brody’s representatives did not immediately comment.

The interview adds Brody to a small group of high-profile Jewish actors who have used the term “genocide” about the Gaza war, even as many others in Hollywood have either stayed silent or spoken in defense of Israel.

The Gemara predicted that before Moshiach comes most Jews will be eliminated. We’re witnessing a silent Holocaust as the intermarriage rates have crossed the critical mass. Along with assimilation through marriage comes assimilation of gentile ideas. None of this should surprise us

He is nothing but a dumb uneducated JINO. If he wants a “Free Palestine” let him go King Abdulla of Jordan whose father King Hussein threw the lazy, uneducated touble making palys out of the Trans Jordan which is what they call Palestine. Throw this self deprecating POS under the bus.

Another stupid know nothing Hollywood actor pandering to the Jew haters like a little turd, trying to claim that in Hollywood it is risky to support “palestine” when it is teh exact opposite, you get rewarded for being a stupid little turd like him.

It is clear to me that Jews with no Torah-mooring, i.e. secular Jews, have a very strong psychological need for social acceptance by Gentiles. I suspect that we are seeing this phenomenon now with the “Free Palestine” garbage. We saw it 50 years ago in the US with the Jews for J wackos, it was evident in the Jews who converted to Xianity in Germany 1800-1935 and in 15th century Spain. Now many proud, educated Jews express disappointment that they were born with only two middle fingers to show the Jew Haters.

This man is a fool whose profession is one in which he gets paid to pretend like he is a different person than he really is. This can be, at best, confusing, and at worst, confusing to the individual that really has no other meaningful thing to contribute to society. Who cares what a moronic actor thinks about a global situation that is beyond his grasp?
