From the US-based Media Education Foundation, an incisive documentary with a roster of eloquent witnesses.  Its title is self-explanatory: Peace, Propaganda and the Promised Land.

An essential counter to the relentless wash of misinformation on Israel and Palestine that we get from mainstream media.

See it here, on Vimeo.

And please, pass it on.
