Israelism Ratings & Reviews
- Varun1 november 2024This is an alright documentary mostly focusing on the perspective of disillusioned American Jews who learnt the truth about Israel and decided to expose it. I think this will definitely open the veil for some but I don’t think it’s strong enough to convince a hardcore Israel supporter. It doesn’t really go deep into the history, a YouTube video would be way more effective. It also doesn’t counter-argue all the angles that Israeli supporters use to justify their actions. They did a great job showing how Israeli and Jewish institutions use propaganda on children, and the crazy part is Palestine is barely even touched on in the curriculum when it’s their land that Israel is built on. It’s no surprise the intersection of religion and a colonial state leads to a cult like brainwashing of the populace to the point they’ll denounce anyone for even questioning the status quo. I think this was an important and brave documentary for the Jewish people that did want to speak out and share their experiences growing up, there were certainly many powerful moments, and I applaud the effort. If you watch this movie thinking you will learn every single thing about Israel, Palestine, Zionism, etc. then you’re out of luck, I would recommend watching more documentaries and YouTube videos because there’s tons more to learn and expose. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
- davidwinquist61816 december 2025To me I agree with her, Israel is definitely in the wrong. A true and lasting peace needs to happen! Although; I can see the need to seek out terrorists! Beating and killing innocent Palestinians, and harassing children is wrong. If they think the child is a terrorist, check him out if you don't find any bomb on him or a gun I didn't go don't harass him continuously. Pray for peace is all we can do, but the scriptures tell a troubled end of times.
