Ok, I've seen these types of memes or posts inducing that gal gadot was on the bad side of Israel politics, is it real ? Has she said something or taken a stance against Palestine or pro-likud/netanyahu ?
She's a huge zionazi who refuses to denounce Israel's actions. Who claims to "not talk politics" which translates to her talking about Israeli 'hostages' but never once mentioning the genocide of Palestinians. She blames pressure to speak out in defence of Palestine as the reason Snow White was a flop. And other shit.

She's pro- Israel.
Israel criticises her for not being rabidly pro Israel enough however she never at any point has stood up against Israel or been pro Palestine. She's just not actively foaming at the mouth shouting for the bombing of children like the Israeli regime would like. However she never says anything bad about Israel either so she's very definitely pro genocide, just too cowardly to actively say it.
Basically, she wishes to have her cake and eat it too. To appear civilised and liberal, to fit in with the Hollywood scene, while supporting a regime of barbarity and oppression.
I don't know her personal politics as I hate all celebrities on principle alone and try to pay as little attention to them as possible, but she's former IDF. What more do you need?
Edit: Yes I'm aware military service is compulsory, but since when is 'just following orders' an acceptable excuse?
isreal has mandatory conscription for all jewish citizens. being former idf does not say anyone about ones politics, other than that they had the misfortune of growing up in isreal as a jewish person. i don't think its a good criticism in itself.

Not defending her or anything but military service is compulsory in Israel.
Your logic doesn't follow. She is former IDF. As in she wasn't even there during the current genocide. You have no idea what she even did. Majority of military service is logistics based. Just because she was forced to be a member doesn't mean she supported what they did.
Oh yeah I forgot the genocide in Palestine only just started after October 7 🙄
I would argue the apartheid has been around for much longer but the full blown genocide is more recent.
Ok well I didn't know, had a few doubt but never actually searched. Thx for your answers, and so now she's on the list of "too bad to watch anymore". There are conflicts, sides, and basic human empathy.
She should be there for being a terrible actress.
