Since the October 7 attacks, over 150,000 #Israeli citizens have left the country, many of them with a one-way ticket and no plans of returning. Hila Amit interviewed several Israeli #Jewish emigrants, whose testimonies point to a profound loss of faith in the #Zionist project itself — one that may signal a broader systemic unraveling.

“Israel Crushed Mohammad Bakri”: Gideon Levy & Rami Khouri on Death of Iconic Palestinian Filmmaker

Journalists Gideon Levy and Rami Khouri discuss the work of acclaimed Palestinian actor and filmmaker Mohammad Bakri, who died at the age of 72 on Christmas Eve. He appeared in more than 40 films and directed documentaries highlighting the experiences of Palestinians living under occupation. “On a personal level, I can’t tell you how much I loved him,” says Levy. On one hand, Levy describes him as a “brave Palestinian patriot.” On the other hand, he was a victim of “Israeli machinery, which totally crushed his life and his career.” Bakri was best known for his 2002 documentary Jenin, Jenin, featuring the voices of Palestinians in the Jenin refugee camp following a devastating Israeli military operation that killed 52 Palestinians. The film is banned in Israel. “Literature, poetry, cinema, art, cooking — any creative work that Palestinians do that reflects their humanity and their attachment to their ancient land, the Israelis and the Zionist movement want to crush this,” adds Khouri.
