In the last few decades the United Nations has been obsessed with one country. Is it North Korea, Zimbabwe, Iran, Syria, China or some other nation with a reprehensible human rights record? Those would all be fair guesses and they would all be wrong. Anne Bayefsky, director of the Touro Human Rights Institute, answers this riddle and explains the upside down moral universe in which the United Nations resides.

Instagram on Israeli News
Once in a Lifetime HD invited major Instagram users on an extraordinary journey across Israel. They were introduced to our small country’s tremendous variety of landscapes, cuisine and nightlife, as well as its multicultural society and culture.
The project is run by Tel Aviv University students who take part in the StandWithUs Fellowship, a public diplomacy program. StandWithUs is an international non-profit organization dedicated to informing the public about Israel (www.StandWithUs.com).

Understanding UN Bias Against Israel
The United Nations has made the democratic State of Israel the target of incessant condemnation while neglecting its mandate in challenging the oppressive regimes around the world. The following video uncovers the factors behind the UN’s bias against Israel
Checkpoints: The Price of Peace
Israel’s detractors often paint the security barrier, and the checkpoints that accompany it, as tools Israel uses to oppress the Palestinians. This documentary investigate the real story behind the checkpoints and their existence, and examines the rational behind the checkpoints and the effects it has on Israelis. It’s clear the checkpoints have stopped suicide bombers and saved Israeli lives. While they are not ideal, until there is peace, does Israel have any other choice?

What’s the Big Deal?
So many times I see posts like these on social media sites where people so far removed from the problem think the two sides should just “stop fighting” and “get along already”. One thing people seem to be overlooking, in order for true peace to be attained, you need to have a partner for peace. As this video reveals, unfortunately, Israel doesn’t have a partner.
More Pallywood
Produced by Write On For Israel/San Francisco teen participants
“As Bay Area high school students, we encounter people who hold many preconceived notions of Israel. Some of our teachers openly condemn Israel for being an apartheid state and engaging in other monstrosities; fellow students speak of Israelis as murderers; and many peers refuse even to acknowledge Israel’s legitimacy as a state.
Therefore, my WOFI team chose to make our documentary about Israel’s public image and about how it is being demonized by falsified media in “Pallywood,” a widespread effort to present the Palestinians as hapless victims of Israeli aggression. While filming, we met people who gave us a great deal of insight into the topic and opened our minds to the dangers.
Today, most people trust the media to always tell the truth, even when it lies. Anti-Israel forces use the international media as a powerful channel to spread disinformation. By exposing the lies of Pallywood we want to put a spotlight on their malicious efforts. Our goal is to reveal the damage that’s been done to Israel’s image by Pallywood and
show Israel in a brighter light–because we feel that we must do our part to protect the only real democracy in the Middle East.”

Klavan’s One-State Solution
In an effort to bring peace to the Middle East, President Barack Obama
has proposed that Israel should return to its 1967 borders in exchange
for being annihilated by its enemies. PJTV’s Andrew Klavan has a better
idea.
