Extra credit: Tears of Gaza

Date assigned
Monday, March 3


Assignment

Watch the film "Tears of Gaza" (link here).


Answer the following questions in at least 2 pages typed, double-spaced, 12-point font:


1) Relate the film to what we have learned in class about the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

2) Explain how your thinking about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was changed by this film.

3) Did you find the film to be biased?  If so, does that detract from the film's effectiveness?  Should a film about warfare be neutral?  Would it be possible to make a neutral documentary about Operation Cast Lead?

4) Did the graphic violence depicted in the film enhance or detract from its message?

5) Are you glad you watched this movie?  Why or why not?
