...rabbis misrepresent, distort and selectively omit important pieces of the contemporary Israeli-Palestinian picture. Namely, they claim that Palestinians have refused to negotiate with Israel and that they are committeed to the total destruction of Israel. According to them, these are "known facts" about Palestinians...
...World Apart is refreshingly different because it resists, for the most part, the impulse to strike out what might be better left unsaid (although it does gloss over the Firsts' communist sympathies). Rather, it aims at realism, insofar as it doesn't omit family fights, broken friendships or even Diana's attempted suicide.

Perhaps they are scared to openly admit their support for an organization that takes greatest pride in the murder of disabled American Leon Klinghoffer, the 1972 massacre of Olympic Athletes in Munich, and the 1974 massacre...
Instead, HUCTW supporters consider such discussions to be critical because they fear protracted debate over even a handful of workers could delay a vote and hurt their chances for winning an election. In recent bargaining sessions, HUCTW Director Kris Rondeau has agreed to omit workers whose eligibility has been contested by the University...
