Summary: Could have been better, but refreshing
Comment: As someone who has studied the Mideast situation for years, and who has had the privelege of living in the Judean Desert (in the land of my Fathers) for years, I welcome this unusual foray into a great deal of TRUTH concerning the Mideast.
However, I only gave it 3 stars because the subject demands the authorship look at its own prejudices and be ruthless in ridding them, and all others gave 5 stars anyway.
1.
The treatment given the inception of Zionism is little more than Israel's enemies give it: Some Russian Zionists in early years, a quick look at Herzl, Balfour. the Holocaust and WHOOSH! instant Israel. The out-of-context editting of Jewish leaders and Truman regarding the creation of Israel bears out well th ewords of Weitzman: "They get their anti-semitism in their mother's milk." Let me give you a peak at some other "truths:" All the characters in the Old Testament settled in Israel 2000 years before Mohammed was born. The area that is blithely referred to as "Jordan's West Bank" was founded as biblical Israel. There's more to being a"people" on a land than sitting there doing nothing: witness the LACK OF so-called Palestinian nationality when Jordan and Egypt had that part of the land.
2.
Mistake over the Mandate. Jordan was a country stolen from the original mandate for Palestine, which was to be all the way to the Euphrates River. Churchill had tried to install King Abdullah from Arabia into Lebanon, but was thwarted in doing so by French sphere of influence there. In an effort to 'make good' on his promise to Abdullah, he "gave" Israeli land to create "Trans-Jordan."
The Mandate given to England was only one of several manadtes given to the Great Power countries of WWI: Lebabnon, Iraq, Iran were all set up and turned over to their inhabitants. That was what the word "Mandate" related to. Britain, who would have been happy to keep all the Jews of Europe in detention camps post WWII, was shocked out of their anti-semitism only by Begin and the Irgun, as England was tired of war by 1948. England actually was refusing to carry out its mandate because of its own Jew-hatred as well as to curry political favor w/arabs.
3.
No mention that Israel gave (and continues to give) more rights to Israeli Arabs than any Arab has anywhere in the Arab World (opportunity for home ownership, health care, education including top universities in the world, where Leftwing academics allow in Arabs before Israeli veterans (kinda like Aff action).
4.
No mention that over 1000 Israelis have been murdered by the re-invigorated PLO with weapons given by Peres-Rabin; that Clinton forced Israel to let out prisoners from Israeli jails, one who got out masterminded 9/11.
5. A complete pass on Carter, the most anti-semetic President of modern times; that Egypt got $2 billion a year in modern US military aid, only a hair below Israel; that Egypt had $
7 billion in debt forgiven;
6. That at the 1948 war, Israel told Arabs not to leave; that their land and/or families wud not be hurt, but once gone in a war w/o uniforms, how can a country allow back hundreds of thousands of arabs - which would constitute an army?
More could have been done to show that during WWII, Roosevelt refused to bomb the railroad tracks leading to Aushwitz, having State Dept lie that it couldnt spare the planes, etc., when in reality they were bombing oil fields so close to Aushwitz there is film of a mistaken bombing on the outskirts of the camp. This is KEY for the coming modern-day setup as well, in which the USA talks big in support of iSrael, but the Secy of State takes every opportunity to allow Israels enemies to gain more and more of an upper hand (Lebabon/Hizbullah and the Egyptian tunnels Condie has worked so hard to give Israel's enemies.)
Latest intell is that US refuses to allow Israeli planes to fly over and into Iran, while gutlessly allowing these lunatics (and others will follow) to gain nuclear weapons. It remeians to be seen if "W" will have the guts to bomb Iran even as a lame-duck.

Summary: Amazing factual review
Comment: With few exceptions, this film shows in clear, stark---and well-documented---sections the history of Islamic hatred for the Jewish people, and from whence comes today's "Arab war against Israel."
As all will see who take the two hours needed to view this comprehensive film, that hatred has very little to do with Israel's modern establishment in 1948, and almost everything to do with the founding principles of Islam, as established by Mohammad himself in his battles against the 7th century Jewish tribes of Arabia. For those who do not know it, Medina (Yathreb, in those days) was actually a Jewish town, and Jewish farmers worked their rich fig and date plantations on its outskirts, to the benefit of all Arabia.
Alas, when the Jewish people of Arabia refused to convert to the new religion Mohammad devised, he exiled and slaughtered them all---taking their wives and children as slaves.
Concerning the supposed "golden age" of Islam, I beg to differ with the film's statements of Islamic achievements. For that particular section, the film relied on but one source, whose reports are distorted by personal bias, and refuted by a host of other historical material, including the critical historical exposes assembled by Dr. Andrew Bostom, The Legacy of Jihad and The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism.
But that caveat aside, this film is riveting, and extremely educational, so much so that even friends not generally interested in the Middle East or Islam sat through the entire showing with only one short break.
Especially for those raised on video media, and less prone to read encyclopedic works revealing the history exposed here, this film is a Godsend. Get it, view it, and recommend it, highly!

The confrontation between Islam and the Jews began in the Prophet Muhammads time and continues to this day. Farewell Israel: Bush, Iran and The Revolt of Islam is an historic journey, from the birth of Islam, through its 1,200 year reign over the civilized world, to the last 300 years of Islamic decline, overtaken and dominated by the West - then humiliated by a Jewish state. Islams historic trials with Jews, and its relationship with conquered non-believers, help illustrate the Islamic world view - all through the eyes of Muslims.
In this groundbreaking film, the total rejection of Israel by Muslim states since its inception in 1948 comes to light as a religious duty for Believers. The Islamic roots of Anwar Sadats 1977 Camp David Accords with Israel are exposed as The Diplomatic Strategy Against Israel by which Egypt sought to defeat Israel through diplomacy, rather than establish Western Peace. Israels misunderstanding of Islamic goals and values are highlighted by its enthusiasm for Yasser Arafat and the 1993 Oslo Accords. Next, President George Bushs tragic misunderstanding of 9/11 as a War Against Freedom, in which the United States played into the hands of Al-Qaeda and the Islamist cause by advocating democratic reform across the Middle East, is revealed. Finally, the Iranian strategic agenda for acquiring weapons of mass destruction to eliminate Israel comes clearly into focus.
Today, at the direction of Iran, Islamists are preparing for a fateful coming war for Islam - and Israel is the number one target and obstacle in the path of Islamic revival. Only with the return of Jews to their historic status as Dhimmi or Tributaries, tolerated and protected within Islamic society, can Islamic revival succeed - resulting in Islamic Peace, in the Middle East. Farewell Israel: Bush, Iran and The Revolt of Islam reaches the unavoidable conclusion that Western and Israeli misunderstanding of Islam is leading to a coming war - which will have devastating consequences for the West, and worst of all for Israel - Farewell Israel!
