Crossing the Line: The Intifada Comes to Campus

October 01, 2013 by 


Crossing the Line, produced by acclaimed filmmaker Raphael Shore and directed by Wayne Kopping, explores the proliferation of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic incidents on North American college campuses. In particular, the film explores the rapid growth of such incidents following the launch of Operation Cast Lead by Israel’s military into Gaza in late December 2008 and January 2009. The documentary demonstrates the blurring of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic lines, showing how the War evoked deep anti-Jewish sentiments among college students and professors.

The film explores the context of these hostilities, by demonstrating the financial ties between Middle Eastern Studies departments and Arab states; the often biased and Pro-Palestinian education received by students in college classes; and the historical connection between the Muslim Student Association and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Interspersed with accounts from Jewish Students and campus professionals, the film offers a glimpse into the experiences of Jewish college students who are actively involved in the daily struggle of supporting the State of Israel and fighting against biased misinformation both in and out of the classroom.

Follow me - The Yoni Netanyahu story

July 18, 2013 by 
Yonatan Netanyahu, the commander of an elite Israeli army commando unit who was killed during Operation Entebbe, a hostage-rescue mission carried out at Entebbe Airport in Uganda on July 4, 1976, after members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and the German Revolutionary Cells hijacked an Air France plane with 248 passengers aboard.

The Yoni Netanyahu story is an intimate journey into a young hero’s mind. The narration for this compelling film was drawn from Yonatan Netanyahu’s own letters and words, which unveil the complex character of this thoroughly modern young hero. Yonatan’s words are deeply moving through his deep-rooted introspection, self-understanding, and heartfelt passions.

Crime & Punishment in the Gaza Strip

June 25, 2013 by 


A rare glimpse of the embattled Gaza Strip and a chance to see what life was like under the rule of Hamas. In 2007 VICE tried and failed to get into Gaza through the Israeli-controlled Erez Crossing. Back then the rival Palestinian factions of Hamas and Fatah were engaged in a bloody war for control of this tiny strip of land. Hamas won. When the post-Mubarak government of Egypt decided to start letting small numbers of folks into Gaza through their Rafah Crossing, VICE could finally enter the region.

Arab Apartheid in the Middle East

June 25, 2013 by 


A short clip by Im Tirtzu, exposing the many Arab states which have an Apartheid system but which is ignored by the world and a false label is placed on Israel for being a supposed "Apartheid State". Israel is the only stable, non-racist democracy in the Middle East, yet the naive world easily slaps this label on it while ignoring all facts about Israel and Arab states.

The Legal Case for Israel

June 23, 2013 by 


What is international law and how does the history of Israel reflect it? Professor Eugene Kontorovich gives a clear explanation of which legal bodies have the power to influence the borders of countries, and more importantly, which do not. This fascinating video gives a different perspective on the boundaries of Israel. He puts the lie to the currently fashionable notion that the "1967 borders" have any legal or historical significance, and demonstrates that Israel does not "illegally occupy" the West Bank. In fact, it was Jordan which illegally occupied the West Bank prior to 1967.

Jew Bashing - The New Anti-Semitism: Canada

June 23, 2013 by 


Other filmmakers have documented the growing fear among Jewish communities worldwide as a new wave of anti-Semitic hatred seems to be gathering pace. Jew Bashing is different. Using investigative journalism and hidden cameras, we reveal Antisemitism as it’s never been done before. We see Anti-Semitism on camera. Our goal is to experience this hatred, to understand its toxicity, instilling motivation to limit the scope of Anti-Semitism. Some Anti-Semites believe Jews are Nazis. They even plotted the holocaust and 9-11. They control the Economy, the Government, the Media. Jews are an evil satanic cult hell-bent on destroying civilization. Oppose them at your peril. Beliefs like these are not the deranged ranting of isolated conspiracy nuts. They are to be found in the respectable mainstream, from British politicians and from some members of the Christian and Islamic clergy. Websites that encourage Jew hatred rank in the top 1% of most popular websites worldwide.

Canada fights Anti-Semitism with much tougher laws than America yet we show how militant Islamic groups, Anti-Hassidic activists, and Anti-Jewish web bloggers still spread Anti-Semitism throughout the country and the world.

In the land of free speech Anti-Semites call for Jewish extinction. So called Anti-Zionists claim Jews dominate American politics. We go undercover into these groups and expose on-camera virulent Anti-Semitism.

In Europe we go undercover among Anti-Zionist groups and show how Jews have been branded the New Nazis and how Anti-Semitic bigotry is once again warning of mythical Jewish lobbies dominating and controlling Europe.
