Jenin, Jenin

Excellent and bold documentary, It is very rare to see this kind of brave coverage exposing the crimes committed against the Palestinians. Heart breaking accounts of the events that took place by first hand witnesses. I don't understand some of the reviews saying "it is boring" or "repetitive". You cannot possibly find this film boring if you have any kind of human compassion. And yes, there is some repetitiveness, it is a documentary based on interviews of eye-witnesses who all viewed the same massacre... The film goes beyond explaining the facts and documenting an important event, it also helps the audience understand the impact this massacre had on its victims and survivors.

A must see eye opener for everyone.

The movie has reached court discussion wherein it has been established it is full of manipulation, lies, fake footage, intentional edits mixed from various sources a d blunt staged/transcribed lies.

Its creator is now sued for libel.

Worthless, manipulative, dishonest and full of lies.

This film does mostly what it intends: From the inside of Jenin it documents the Jenin inhabitants tragedies with losses of family members and the struggle against an occupation force. It does not, however, documents the objective FACTS and the objective truth of the events occurred, but merely the facts and truth for the Jenin inhabitants. (If at all such truth about the Jenin event exists?!)

After having seen this movie my knowledge of the event are not much greater, but my knowledge of the stress Palestinians undergo have been greatly enhanced. One has to be very cold-hearted not to feel empathy with people interviewed in this movie, and therefore I rate this movie 8 of 10. Simply because it works.

But notice: If you are watching this movie ONLY for political reasons, remember also to view movies that displays the stress and sorrow for Israeleans victims.

To understand a conflict, is to understand all sides of it.

This award winning documentary is definitely worth the watch, finally someone has the guts to portray what really goes on behind closed doors.. this movie really exposes Israel's war crimes and consistent policy of ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people. It's a very sad movie that really makes you realize what's important in your life and how truly bad, the world we live in, is. I recommend this movie to everyone who wants to open their minds and understand where Palestinians are really coming from and why they fight for what they believe in, now how many of us can really say that? Literally?

Movie clearly shows the truth of whats happening in Gaza. Five Israeli reserve soldiers suing an Israeli Arab film director they accuse of libeling troops who fought in the battle for the Jenin refugee camp, they accuse Mohammad Bakri of libelously portraying them and their comrades as war criminals in the film Jenin, Jenin, which was recently banned in Israel.

The soldiers are also suing two Israeli cinemas which screened it after its October release, demanding about half-a-million dollars. One of the reservists told the Israeli newspaper.

TRUTH HURTS!
