Peace, Propaganda and Promised Land

What do you know about what goes on with Israel and Palestine? You probably only know what is told to you by the mainstream media. "Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land" provides a striking comparison of U.S. and international media coverage of the crisis in the Middle East, zeroing in on how structural distortions in U.S. Coverage have reinforced false perceptions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This pivotal documentary exposes how the foreign policy interests of American political elites--oil, and a need to have a secure military base in the region, among others--work in combination with Israeli public relations strategies to exercise a powerful influence over how news from the region is reported.
