Israelism (2023)
A thoughtful film
21 November 2023 - 20 out of 30 users found this review helpful.
This film was a thoughtful review and critique of the American Jewish relationship to Israel. The film is comprised of interviews with Jewish Americans, Israelis, Palestinians, and Palestinian Americans, including former members of the IDF, and offers a varied perspective on the ways that Zionism is propagated in Jewish American communities and bolsters the Israeli state. It thoughtfully acknowledges the rise of antisemitism in the United States with the march of white nationalists on Charlottesville and the shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue, and detangles the myth that all critiques of Israeli occupation and apartheid are antisemitic.
