The news service Al Jazeera has produced a 4-part film exposing the inner-workings of the Israeli Lobby. Israel found it so damning that it leaned heavily on Qatar, where Al Jazeera is headquartered, to force the filmâs producers to not release the filmâ¦and they have not. This act of censorship has caused an enormous controversy. Somehow the Electronic Intifada obtained the film, "The Lobby - USA," and made it available for viewing on its website. You can view it there at electronicintifada.net/content/watch-film-israel-lobby-didnt-want-you-see/25876, and you should. It really is a âmust seeâ film. If that post gets "disappeared," then google the phrase âwatch the film the Israeli lobby did not want you to see.â You will get numerous other links to viewing that film.
Today we feature the Electronic Intifadaâs founder and director, Ali Abunimah, speaking about this film, its content, and its importance, before an audience at the Washington Report on the Middle East in Washington, DC.
Before we go, we want you to know about another important film: "Imprisoning a Generation." It's a documentary film following the stories of four young Palestinians who have been detained and imprisoned under the Israeli military and political systems. Their perspectives, along with the voices of their families, combine to form a lens into the entangled structure of oppression that expand well beyond Israel's prison walls.
