To say all pro-Palestinians should watch Fauda on Netflix?

[FuadaFan]

Now it is a drama about how the Israeli security services deal with the conflict but it is apparently pretty accurate and is amazingly well produced and acted.

Season 5, which covers Oct 7th has just come out after a long delay.

I've had to take a break after episode 7 because it's so distressing but it still doesn't even come close to what happened that day.

I think it's gives a clearer idea as to the truth of what has been going on and it does try to give a perspective from both sides.

I think every pro-Palestinian should watch it.

AIBU?

The UN is not a single entity with a uniform "belief."

The ICJ (the only UN body with the legal authority to officially declare that a state has violated the 1948 Genocide Convention) is currently hearing a formal case brought by South Africa accusing Israel of genocide.

It has so far issued orders requiring Israel to take all necessary measures to prevent acts of genocide and ensure humanitarian access. It has not yet ruled on whether genocide has actually taken place.

The actual support for the genocide claim comes from the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel, which consists of three members.

Its a nice idea on paper, but there is evidence aplenty that Palestinian children are groomed to become "martyrs" from the cradle. They are not radicalised by circumstances, but by very deliberate indoctrination. One may say the adults are the real problem.

A further point needs to be raised: children dying in a conflict doesn't automatically mean they are being deliberately targeted. Sometimes accidental collateral damage happens. Its tragic, but its reality.

How do you know it’s ‘blatant propaganda’ if you haven’t watched it?

Three members, each of whom are decidedly partisan in their affiliations...

Its "anything I don't agree with is propaganda". Confirmation bias.

People discussing an issue on an online forum is not the same as someone speaking with authority.

But these same people would argue October 7th was entirely justified in the name of "resistance". Isn't that interesting?

I think people sometimes forget that scholars are also people with their own biases.

I’m unclear what you’re saying here. Are you suggesting the UN has stated that Israel is committing genocide based on zero evidence?

Actually, surveys have been conducted, and it concluded around 95% of Palestinians support Hamas. Although more recent ones suggest a decline in support.

Palestinian supporters love to use buzzwords like "Aparthied" and "collective punishment" but fail to understand the West Bank and Gaza are semi-autonomous regions whose policies are determined by their respective governments. The PA and Hamas respectively - yes Hamas are officially the governing party in Gaza.

These parties both have laws which exclude or discriminate against certain groups, notably Jews and non-Muslims, criminalise homosexuality, and legalise things like child marriage. In other words, the people who are depriving Palestinians of human rights are, by and large, other Palestinians.

I always try to provide credible evidence to back up my position.

Sorry to bring it up again but you literally made up what I have said on this very thread to attack me. Honestly, the gall of you.

Please share on what basis you state that they are “decidedly partisan in their affiliations…”

I was talking about that particular one because it gets mentioned a lot on the Israel-Gaza threads, despite being previously debunked.

I hope people are able to see and reflect on the revelations in the documentary NAZA.The Israeli makers are now threatened with "revocation of their citizenship"

I believe countries which support terrorist organisations are partially responsible for the actions of those organisations.

Is that a controversial view?

Nothing in this article mentions any threats to revoke citizenship.

Did you know almost everything they say in the film is based on uncorroborated anonymous accounts?

Please share the survey/source for this figure.

My post was about IDF soldiers, so I’m
not sure why you are talking about explosions (well, I am sure, it’s a technique you have used numerous times on this thread).

I haven't claimed they are “all fake".

Yes, you specifically said that videos of videos of IDF soldiers posted by themselves are all fake

no solider is going to be that stupid as to film themselves and post it on social media

I found the episode where they deliberately murdered young Palestinian children a tough watch. Oh wait - that was real life not a Netflix series

Or they come out with that horrible “Hannibal Derective” claim, insinuating Israel killed its own citizens on October 7th.

Are you really trying to suggest that it’s unacceptable to criticise the IDF?

Or that because people are conscripted into the IDF, soldiers are not responsible for their own actions whilst in the IDF and we can’t criticise these actions?

“On Sunday Israel’s culture minister, Miki Zohar, accused the directors on X of being willing to “harm their homeland in order to receive applause from antisemites around the world”.
“I will act immediately to revoke the Israeli citizenship of these despicable creators for treason against the state,” Zohar wrote on X.
Other Israeli ministers also took aim at the directors, who won an Oscar in 2025 for their film No Other Land about Israeli settler violence in the occupied West Bank.”

re corroboration:
Because the 24 separate insiders describe the exact same protocols, software, and administrative allowances for civilian death their testimonies corroborate one another regarding the institutional nature of the targeting.
(Please note this is based on reviews of the film online- I have yet to watch it myself.)

The ICC move quickly if they have credible evidence. They moved to issue arrest warrants against Hamas operatives within a year on the basis of "reasonable grounds". Reza works for what is essentially a pressure group and his "evidence" is far short of the standard required in a court.

I’m pretty sure everyone on this thread agrees with this.

Please correct me if I’m wrong, if there’s anyone who disagrees.

The UN as an organisation hasn’t stated Israel is committing genocide.
