Hitler Was Great: Days after an Israeli filmmaker called ‘The Kashmir Files’ a “propaganda” and “vulgar movie”, Israel’s ambassador to India Naor Gilon posted a screenshot of a message that he said he had received on Twitter. The message justified the holocaust and praised Hitler. Gilon said he was withholding the identity of the person who sent him the message to protect him.
The Israeli envoy wrote, “Just wanted to share one of a few DMs I got in this direction. According to his profile, the guy has a PhD. Even though he doesn’t deserve my protection, I decided to delete his identifying information.”

Gilon says he is touched by support
In another tweet, Gilon said he was “touched” by the support he received upon posting the message.
The message came days after the Israeli envoy publicly denounced filmmaker Nadav Lapid from his country who called ‘The Kashmir Files’ a “propaganda” and “vulgar movie” at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa.
Gilon also apologized to India in an “open letter” on Twitter, on Tuesday, a day after Lapid slammed the movie at the closing ceremony of the festival.
Gilon said Nadav Lapid abused the Indian invitation to the judges’ panel in the “worst way”.
Guest is like God
“In Indian culture, they say that a guest is like God. You have abused in the worst way the Indian invitation to chair the panel of judges at @IFFIGoa as well as the trust, respect, and warm hospitality they have bestowed on you,” he added.

Nadav Lapid had said the jurors at the film festival were “disturbed and shocked” by ‘The Kashmir Files’. Two days later, he offered a “total apology” if his remarks had been misinterpreted and said his aim was not to insult the Kashmiri Pandit community or those who had suffered.
“But at the same time, whatever I said, and I said clearly that for me and my fellow jury members, it was, and it is a vulgar propaganda movie that didn’t have a place and was inappropriate for such a prestigious competitive section. I can repeat it again and again,” he said.
