WSWS review

Link to a wsws review by Joanne Laurie of a new Israelii documentary: The Gatekeepers, directed by Dror Moreh.

The newly released film –directed by Dror Moreh., a former election ad maker for Ariel Sharon - largely consists of interviews with former heads of Shin Bet , the notorious Israeli intelligence service . According to Laurier , The Gatekeepers “ provides a glimpse into the crisis wracking Israeli society and the failing Zionist project.”

There have been discussions about arranging a film/video festival to coincide with the June Alternative Anti-G8 summit in Dublin. Perhaps this would be a good film to show ?

(Any other suggestions welcome by the way either here or at : http://dubaltg8.org/)
