Rabbi Steve Leder, a technical adviser on Netflix’s *Nobody Wants This*, criticised its star Adam Brody for describing Israel’s actions in Gaza as “genocide”. Leder called Brody’s remarks ignorant and flippant, and argued that he had misused the term; his comments reflect a dispute over Brody’s public stance on the conflict.

Brody made the remarks in an interview with *GQ*, saying he supported a free Palestine and hoped a future US administration would change policies he said were worsening the situation. Fox News reported that Brody’s representatives had not responded to a request for comment. The Coalition for Jewish Values and the Israeli-American Council also condemned his statement, while the article presents their claims and criticism without including a response from Brody.
