Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land provides a striking comparison of U.S. and international media coverage of the crisis in the Middle East, zeroing in on how structural distortions in U.S. coverage have reinforced false perceptions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This pivotal documentary exposes how the foreign policy interests of American political elites--oil, and a need to have a secure military base in the region, among others--work in combination with Israeli public relations strategies to exercise a powerful influence over how news from the region is reported. Through the voices of scholars, media critics, peace activists, religious figures, and Middle East experts, Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land carefully analyzes and explains how--through the use of language, framing and context--the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza remains hidden in the news media, and Israeli colonization of the occupied territory appears to be a defensive move rather than an offensive one. The documentary also explores the ways that U.S. journalists, for reasons ranging from intimidation to a lack of thorough investigation, have become complicit in carrying out Israel's PR campaign. At its core, the documentary raises questions about the ethics and role of journalism, and the relationship between media and politics.

  • @vistavision2 The 3rd LOAC Act of Reprisal aka "Suicide Bombing was at Beer La HA Roi.

    The God of Abraham, Ishmael, Issac, Jesus the Nazerene, & Mohammed is the self-same God Allah of Beer La Ha Roi.

    The Karine A was my ship and It was seized in International waters thus the Israeli Government committed an act of piracy. I want my ship & weapons returned or renumerated [$] for my property.

    Israel will comply with UNSC 242 : Vacate its presence in UNGA 181 Palestine West Bank

  • The suicide bombings were LOAC Acts of Reprisals for Israeli Operation Barbarossa [self-same named after NAZI Operation Barbarossa & objective] of eastward thrust to initiate the WWII Holocaust of genocide

    1993-2000 Seven Years after Declaration of Principles the Sionist Likud Government of Israeli initiated Operation Barbarossa

    I personally authorized those Acts of Reprisals aka "suicide bombings" when I assumed The Chairmanship of the PLO when PA President Arafat [PBUH] was under siege.
