NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Console best movie i've ever seen.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Platypuschow Though Palestine Is Still the Issue doesn't bring any new facts to the table it's an awareness documentary that I believe everyone should watch.Perhaps if more people knew of the travesty's taking place and had the mainstream medias lies about Israel explained to them then something could be done about it.This is the third John Pilger film I've watched and I very much enjoy his work. If I were to criticize in anyway I'd point out that his documentaries are a tad on the short side.If you are not aware of what is going on in Palestine and what has been for a very very long time then I suggest you give these 52 minutes your time. Another drawn out genocide, another cover up, another group of people demonised by the media while the truly evil ones are defended by our governments.And yet again all the death, all the intolerance, all the acts of purely evil taking place are directly attributed to religion.To quote Bill Maher "For mankind to survive, religion must die"

m-ozfirat The renowned and exceptionally excellent journalist John Pilger looks at the reality of the situation in Palestine with out a political agenda as done by other reporters. The reality behind the conflict is not dual as reflected in the mainstream but against an occupying and expanding state oppressing the majority population whilst enforcing segregation and getting global aid for it. The Arabs have very little and within this analysis Pilger investigates how the Palestinians have fought of Western* expansionism within the Levant and the majority of Israelis desire for a normal country Pilger goes in to the historical background and origins of the conflict as an overview and here he should of added more detail. He interviews the Israeli authorities an their ignominious attitude towards expansionism not accepting the original plan that Israel would only have half of Modern Palestine that corresponded to Ancient Israel. But there are also those Israelis who genuinely want peace and the original border definitions for the basic right of a normal life and in his interviews with the Israelis the majority of ordinary people adhere to this attitude. to conclude this documentary paints the reality of the situation of Palestine and fairly gives both sides of the argument with facts, politicians and peoples desires for a normal life one that should with compulsion be reported in the mainstream media. Critics will label this Anti- Semitic because they don't like what they hear. the documentary does not encourage hatred of an entire people but is rational in purely political analysis to solve the border problems before things get out of control. *I say Western expansion not Israeli because the country itself is a western state and is affiliated more with the EU then the Middle East with the financial support of America for a foothold in the area.

ceymooney i know that many do not like that this movie is one-sided, but where you stand determines what you see. in discussing the israeli occupation of palestine and all the other elements of this conflict, actually tackling the occupation itself is the most important element of the conflict to include.pilgier does it a gain by going straight to the heart of the matter and raising all the tough questions; in israel, these types of discussions are commonplace, but in the u.s., unfortunately, the most important parts of the story are taboo. discussion of the situation from which the violence grows are taboo. you can't discuss the israel/palestine conflict without tackling the reason for the season...the israeli occupation. as every story has a few dozen (at least) sides to it, if you're gonna pick one side to cover, pick the one that addresses the root causes of the subject matter. pilgier has done it again.equal time would be something like this--ordinary palestnian life under military occupation--12 hrs/day, 7 days/week. but this is a good start.

lbohne British writer DH Lawrence once classified the passion for justice as the finest and noblest of all emotions. John Pilger's accurate and fair account of the conflict between Palestine and Israel is one of the finest examples of this passion. Pilger is now teaching at Cornell University and is the recipient of countless journalistic awards. A renowned veteran war reporter, he has covered some of the most war-torn regions of the world: Vietnam, Cambodia, East Timor, Afghanistan and many others. Only the most sullen opponents to his commitment to freedom and justice would deny him the status he enjoys as a first-class journalist."Palestine Is Still the Issue" is a must-see for Americans, who are kept in the dark by the media and political elites by the real nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It is a conflict about land, which the documentary makes clear. The brutality of the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) in dealing with the people it occupies--the Palestinians--is, indeed, uncomfortable to watch for people who wish to shrink from the truth, but the film is repletewith interviews with conscientious Israelis who oppose the Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands--including a traumatic interview with an Israeli father of a victim of a suicide bomber.
