Netanyahu Threatens to Revoke Israeli Citizenship of NAZA Filmmakers Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged to revoke the citizenship of filmmakers behind the documentary NAZA, a move that raises questions about his commitment to democratic values, particularly freedom of speech.
The decision comes in the run up to Israel's October 27 election and is seen as an attempt by Netanyahu to silence critics and consolidate his power.
Netanyahu's justification for revoking citizenship centers on alleged defamation of Israeli soldiers.
