 \nDONATIONS REQUESTED $10-20 \n(No one turned away for lack of 
 funds)\nFunds benefit the Anti-Racism Committee of NLG\n\nSynopsis: A 
 thought-provoking and powerful documentary film on the current and 
 historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Unlike any 
 other film ever produced on the conflict -- 'Occupation 101' presents a 
 comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the never 
 ending controversy and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and 
 misconceptions. \nThe film also details life under Israeli military rule, 
 the role of the United States in the conflict, and the major obstacles that 
 stand in the way of a lasting and viable peace. The roots of the conflict 
 are explained through first-hand on-the-ground experiences from leading 
 Middle East scholars, peace activists, journalists, religious leaders and 
 humanitarian workers whose voices have too often been suppressed in 
 American media outlets. \n\nThe film covers a wide range of topics -- which 
 include -- the first wave of Jewish immigration from Europe in the 1880's, 
 the 1920 tensions, the 1948 war, the 1967 war, the first Intifada of 1987, 
 the Oslo Peace Process, Settlement expansion, the role of the United States 
 Government, the second Intifada of 2000, the separation barrier and the 
 Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, as well as many heart wrenching testimonials 
 from victims of this tragedy. \n\nFeatured Interviews Occupation 101 
 features a leading list of some of the most credible Middle East scholars, 
 historians, peace activists, journalists, and humanitarian workers. \n\n
