The Book of #Esther is reckoned as the final historical book in English Old Testaments and part of the #Megillot, or five scrolls of the Writings, in the Hebrew Bible.

The Book of Esther set forth the story of how #Hadassah, or Esther, was elevated to become the queen of #Ahasuerus, who we know as #Xerxes I of #Persia. She became queen after #Vashti had displeased Xerxes and had been dismissed.

Six months of liberal Zionist doublethink

Since 7 October, the principal dividing line on Israel-Palestine has been supporting or opposing a ceasefire. For a faction accustomed to taking the middle ground, that has posed a unique dilemma.

Sorry for avoiding indicating that it was a citation from Matt at Vashti. I just corrected my error above.

Vashti "aims to pursue an ongoing inquiry into what it means to be a Jewish leftist".

Here is a piece by Jacob Engelberg: "Can film unteach Hasbara?" https://vashtimedia.com/2020/11/19/issues/review/can-film-unteach-hasbara/

"Alexandrowicz’s perhaps quixotic hope that images of the occupation might force ardent supporters of the Israeli state to question their ideological positions is dashed by Maia."

Vashti - Can film unteach Hasbara?

A new documentary, screened at the UK Jewish Film Festival this week, considers whether exposure to video footage of the plight of Palestinians can change the hearts and minds of Israel’s fiercest advocates.
