This film is SO enlightening. As a Jew who grew up thinking Israel was salvation -- a paradise -- and a safe haven, you realize the adage "too good to be true" is a more of an acute reality of its existence.
Yes, Jews have persecuted for ages, but what right do we have to transfer that trauma to another population? We don't.
What's happening in Gaza is heart wrenching - knowing this film was made beforehand is also interesting.
If you're a Jew, please watch this film. You need to see what it's like "on the other side" of the fence. Especially because there's nothing left of it.
Israel has a dark history that it's trying to cover up and forget and it's giving all Jews a bad name.
If you've seen the documentary Jesus Camp, Israelism is almost its Jewish counterpart. If you are or were among the Hebrew school-going, youth group, Jewish summer camp and Birthright crowd, please, I implore you to watch this with an open mind.
I'm giving it 8 stars instead of 10 because I wish it added in a timeline of the history of what happened so viewers can digest it better. And it never addresses the development and plight of Hamas which I think is a huge miss.
Even still, incredibly important and extremely well done. Thank you for making this.
