'This doc strips back the layers of myth, from #denial to stories of mass #genocide , telling the real story through the hidden remains of the destroyed #Palestinian village of #Lubya. Lying under a purposefully cultivated forest plantation, it holds many of the answers not only to the country's past, but also its future.'

You will see & hear how some #Jewish people, inside & outside Israel, #decolonized their minds. It is an excellent #documentary & has many different voices in it.
"For me, Muslim-Jewish coexistence isn’t an abstract concept. It’s not an ideal. It was an everyday reality. We lived it, we experienced it, we touched it, and therefore recalling the experience of the Jewish community in Iraq and my family enables me to think of a better future for our region. To counter the Zionist claim that Muslim Jewish Arab-Israeli hostility is preordained and that the two sides are doomed to live in perpetual conflict."
#Russia volunteers Margarita and Roman Krivtsov who help Russian soldiers on the occupied territories gave an interview to a blogger Pavel Ivanov^1:
Roman depressively remarks 70% of population in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblast’ is against “Russkiy mir”, his wife quietly adds “more…”
Local population routinely reports Russian military positions to #Ukraine armed forces.
Roman gives na example of Yalta (Donetsk oblast) where Russian garnison got hit by a massive rocket strike, which he witnessed, but it was not reported by any Russian channels.
Roman says how he tried to fuel up on two petrol stations in Zaporizhzhia oblast but owners refused, speaking to him in “pure Western Ukrainian language”. The last observation he reports with a honest astonishment on his face, while his wife nods her head in a “can you see what we have to suffer here!” gesture.
At this point Ukrainian journalist Denis Kazansky who found this interview sarcastically asks how come 70% residents suddenly hate Russia, when in the 2022 “referendums” everyone apparently equivocally voted for Russia 😉
Krivtsov then refers to the residents of occupied territories as “traitors”, to which Kazansky replies these are just regular patriots of their country, occupied by an external invader - and these volunteers are not helping them, but the invading army after all, so now wonder they are afraid to come at night as “they might not wake up” (Krivtsovs used this phrase).
Then blogger Ivanov asks “so how we can become brotherly nations again” to which both Krivtsovs categorically reply it’s irreversible, there’s absolutely no way. Then they enter a sentimental tone typical of Soviet citizens of their age, recalling how in the past they casually “drove to Kharkov to eat a cake with friends”, but these times will never return.
Kazansky again sarcastically respond that they must have liked their friends in Kharkiv very much if they supported Putin’s invasion in whose course the town was especially severely bombed…
