After first setting the ruling party and its internet ecosystem on fire with his comments at the International Film Festival of India on Sunday, when he savaged The Kashmir Files as vulgar  propaganda not worthy of a place in the competition section of the premier fest, outspoken Israeli filmmaker and head juror Nadav Lapid doubled down on Wednesday, this time throwing the F-bomb on his way out of India.

Speaking to an Israeli news outlet, Lapid said the film “basically justifies the Indian policy in Kashmir, and it has fascist features.” With this, Lapid has shown his hand—a clear willingness to not back down in the face of threats and even coercive tactics from the Israeli diplomatic office.
