Jim,

Palestinian movie makers are often short on the money, it’s ridiculous to even compare between any Palestinian movie and Munich for example.

You don’t need a manual to understand Divine Intervention, you just need to be a little bit creative and have a heart. Especially Divine Intervention does not deal with history and politics in their actual forms but rather from a humanitarian side of the story. Are you sure you watched it? because I’m pretty sure it had nothing to do with whose side you’re on. Injustice is pretty universal you know, and so is love!

while israelis are busy making films anyone can understand, Palestinians filmmakers like Elia are making films that need a history and political manual to understand. no wonder the only films western producers are willing to promote are like Elia’s Devine Intervention. compare his film with the award-winning The Pianist, Munich, and other pro-Israeli films. Let’s face it, Palestinians make crap feature films. and recently, even their documentary films have turned crap. they are made for those who know the history of the conflict and who are already taking sides.

One of my favorite movies ever!

My favorite scene was probably the ninja scene, or maybe the soccer ball stab…
