The Middle East conflict is framed as one of the most complex problems in the world. But, in reality, it's very simple. Israelis want to live in peace and are willing to accept a neighboring Palestinian state. And most Palestinians do not want Israel to exist. As Dennis Prager explains, this is really all you need to know. In 5 minutes, understand how Israel was founded, and how, since that auspicious day in 1948, its neighbors have tried to destroy it, again and again.

Tuvia Grossman meets the IDF soldier who saved his life
In 2000, the media published a photo of Tuvia Grossman, a Jewish student from Chicago -- bloodied and battered -- crouching beneath a club-wielding Israeli policeman. The caption identified him as a Palestinian victim of Israeli brutality -- with the clear implication that the Israeli soldier was the one who beat him. In fact, the policeman saved his life.
Ten years later, HonestReporting reunited Tuvia and his rescuer for the first time since those terrible events. Watch the video to witness their dramatic reunion.

The Factory: A SodaStream Documentary
Meet Abdallah, a Palestinian who dreams of his two-year-old son becoming a neurologist, and Valery, the Russian-Jewish transplant who works with Abdallah on an assembly line at the SodaStream factory in the West Bank settlement of Ma'ale Adumim. We sent an Israeli and Arab filmmaker to explore the plant, made famous by Scarlett Johansson and SodaStream's controversial Super Bowl ad. The conflict was not what we expected. It was not political but internal, and it was hidden, complex, sad -- poignant. This movie is not about causes or abstract forces. It is about the human element.

The Humiliation of Palestinians in Arab States
Palestinian refugees in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria suffer a daily humiliation at then hands of their Arab brothers. It is way past time that they were given dignity, equality before the law and Iraqi, Jordanian, Lebanese or Syrian citizenship. Yet BDS and all other so called Pro-Palestinian organizations do not say or do a thing about this, in fact they respond and behave as though it doesn't exist.
Extremely harsh treatment of "Palestinian" refugees in Lebanon...yet Jews are still to blame!
It is important to note that no Arabs were expelled from Israel during the 1948 war or any other war involving Israel. This is a complete misconception and misuse of terms. It was simply a war in which multiple Arab states attacked the Israeli state, and during wars people flee the areas which see heavy fighting in, regardless of which side is involved. In addition to this, the Arabs living in Israel at the time were demanded by their own leaders and the leaders of the Arab states to flee the land and not return. Israel had no intention of driving out the Arabs from the land and did no such thing. When the war was over, many of the Arabs returned to Israel and they were welcomed back by the Israeli government who initiated calls for the Arabs to return to Israel. Most of the Arabs rejected this request and so they took on the status of refugee on their own accord. The only parties to blame here are the Arab leaders and the leaders of the Arab states who attacked Israel and forced the Arabs to leave. Anything else is either a blatant lie or a complete fantasy.

The video proves how badly the Arab states treat "Palestinian" Arab refugees and yet hardly anyone focuses on these serious issues which these people have to face everyday and also allow them to continue the fairy tale that Israel is to blame for their current situation. Even if Israel was to blame, it is still not right at all for the way the Lebanese government treats the "Palestinian" Arabs within their country and worse off, no one says a word about it. When Jews can't be blamed for suffering of Arabs, then no one is really that interested.

Pallywood: 1 - According to Palestinian sources
Pallywood, a term coined by Richard Landes combining “Palestinian” and “Hollywood,” refers to incidents staged by Palestinian journalists for the Western media and often in cooperation with their camera crews in order to create anti-Israel propaganda cleverly presented to the world as factual news.
These “news pieces” present the Palestinians as victims of Israeli aggression in which the Israelis are overwhelmingly powerful yet the Palestinians bravely fight against them despite the odds. Pallywood news pieces have been very successful due to the eagerness of the Western media to present these fabricated, heroic underdog story-lines with their accompanying emotionally charged imagery.

Jews are the "most evil among creations, barbaric monkeys, wretched pigs"
Palestinian Authority TV continues to promote Islam-based hate speech and Antisemitism, voiced by little children. In this latest example, two sisters recited a poem that included the following demonization of Jews:
"You who murdered Allah's pious prophets (i.e., Jews in Islamic tradition)
Oh, you who were brought up on spilling blood
You have been condemned to humiliation and hardship
Oh Sons of Zion, oh most evil among creations
Oh barbaric monkeys, wretched pigs."
The poem also taught that Jerusalem is not for Jews, because Jerusalem "vomits" out the Jews who are said to be "filth" and "impure":
"Jerusalem vomits from within it your impurity
Because Jerusalem, you impure ones, is pious, immaculate
And Jerusalem, you who are filth, is clean and pure."
The Turban and the Swastika
This documentary shows the amazing degree of cooperation between Hitler's Nazi's and Islam, specifically, Yasser Arafat's uncle, The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. There is stunning footage and facts here of the degree to which shared Jew hatred was so strong for the Mufti, he begged Hitler to bomb Jerusalem, where his own family lived, just so he could kill more Jews.

Israel Palestinian Conflict: The Truth About the Refugees
Israel's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Danny Ayalon explains the historical facts relating to the issue of refugees in the Israeli Palestinian conflict. The video explains the reason there are still refugees after more than six decades is because of Arab leaders' recalcitrance to accept their brethren and the United Nations which created a separate agency with unique principles and criteria. The video also highlights the issue of the Jewish refugees who were forced out of their homes in the Arab world, and were subsequently absorbed by the State of Israel.
Israel Palestinian Conflict: The Truth about the Peace Process
