Vatic Note: Is there the slightest chance we will come out on the right side of this issue???? Not with 32 minimum Khazars running our government there isn't. They are in control of the US gov and Israeli Gov and not a chance that we would pick the right side, BUT HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS...... we the people can pick the right side no matter what the government, controlled by the khazars say. They do not control us. We can come out on the side of the real Jews in this conflict and on the side of the Pals and their homeland. It appears some real truth is in this documentary and I applaud the IDF members who decided to do the right thing at the high cost to themselves.... as well as the protestors.

Doha Film Institute (DFI)
At the excellent Al Jazeera International Documentary Film Festival in Doha, Qatar - I was impressed by the work of DFI. They worked hard with getting students and others to check out the screenings of the 287 documentaries at the festival.
DFI also conducted interviews with Iphones, and to my surprise they did come out very well.
Check review and interview.

Winner at Al Jazeera International Documentary Film Festival
And the winner is...."Israel vs Israel".
Of course, it´s a political statement by the most influential Arab-broadcaster, to select a documentary about Jewish peace activists as its opening film.
That the jury a few days awarded picked the film as a winner is a major acknowledgement of my work. Hopefully, this is only the beginning.
Read and listen more here, here or here.

Update & review
Around the globe, there are more and more screenings of the film . SVT Sweden, YLE Finland and Russia Today have all broadcasted the film, but check the review below to get an idea of how this film is received.
Israel vs Israel is considered by Ezra Winton to be one of the best political films of 2010.

This is what he writes:
The last thing an American Jew expects to be called by another Jew is a “Nazi,” yet this is the reality progressive Jews fighting the illegal occupation inside Israel face from fanatic Israeli Jews. ISRAEL VS. ISRAEL is one of the most important documentaries I have seen in the growing arsenal of cinematic testimonies to the oppression of the Palestinian people. So many films have documented the devastation and despair of Palestinians yet few films highlight the lesser-known struggle of progressive Israeli and international Jews who risk their careers, reputations, and lives for the Palestinian cause.
Carlsson’s one hour exploration of these unsung heroes is a moving portrait of the fight from the inside – four men and women who stand up to both the Israeli state and to fanatic, violent and mentally unbalanced settlers. Disparate moments of bravery are woven together and make up a larger picture of solidarity and community – of a social, political and cultural movement that includes Israeli citizens, rabbis, former IDF soldiers, and Jews from the West.
What they face is the overwhelming violence of the Israeli state as it continues its policy of occupation, oppression and expansion as well as fundamentalist militants whose children are encouraged to throw stones and sewage at elderly Palestinian women as they pass in the street. The images are shocking and terrifying. That such cruel manifestations of life on this planet exist is heartbreaking. Celebrating those that defy their own government, their own people, and who risk life and limb to fight with the Palestinians is one of the most important stories ever to be told from this ongoing conflict.
