Israel Armor in the killing zone
Israeli Armor
Part 1 - Dispatches reporter Sandra Jordan and producer Rodrigo Vasquez risk their lives to reveal the shocking level of daily violence and murderous hate in the Gaza Strip. An American peace activist was crushed to death by an IDF bulldozer; a British peace protester was shot in the head by an IDF sniper and remains in a coma; and last weekend, a British cameraman was shot dead by the IDF. Within hours of arriving Sandra and Rodrigo are shot at and tear-gassed by Israeli troops breaking up a memorial service for Rachel Corrie, an American peace activist crushed by an Israeli Army bulldozer two days before.

Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land
Propaganda
Part 2 - 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. Through the voices of scholars, media critics, peace activists, religious figures, and Middle East experts, Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land carefully analyzes and explains how--through the use of language, framing and context--the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza remains hidden in the news media, and Israeli colonization of the occupied terrorities appears to be a defensive move rather than an offensive one.

Fallujah Destroyed
Video of the destroyed Iraqi city of Fallujah. Now that this city is destroyed, what will happen? What will come next? "Fallujah has been closed as a city for two months. Ali Fadhil - Fallujah: The first eye witness Ali's film contradicts the belief that after the Iraq war Fallujah is getting back to normality. A native Iraqi, Ali trained and worked as a doctor during the 2003 war. His film documents the unknown and utter devastation inside the city: buildings reduced to rubble; bodies half-eaten by rabid dogs and the humiliation of Fallujan men ordered to ask permission to reenter their own city. Ali Fadhil successfully captures the physical and psychological destruction of a city and a people.
