Peace, Propaganda and the Promised Land: Media & the Israel-Palestine Conflict

**Please take note that not all Jewish and Israeli support their Zionist corrupted government policy. There are the military refusenik such as the Ometz LeSarev and Yesh Gvul who refused to serve in the occupation. There are also “Combatants for Peace” movement by both Palestinians and Israelis, who have decided to put down their guns, and to fight for peace. Please watch the video till the end.



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.
