"Jeremy Hardy versus the Israeli Army" is a vivid, stirring and ultimately
moving account of how ordinary people from around the world can take a
non-violent stand against one of the world's most powerful armies and achieve
tangible positive results. It is a testament to the power of the white flag
against the gun, and to the bravery and resolve possessed by the most
surprising people.
We are used to greeting news from the Middle East with a mixture of outrage
and apathy. Global horrors enrage and disempower us at a stroke. This film
demonstrates how, if you care enough, you can engage yourself in the most
complex and frightening of international issues, and do good. For most
viewers, myself included, this is a shocking and inspiring revelation.
The film stands to become a key document in the new political engagement, as
spearheaded by Naomi Klein's "No Logo", and demands to be seen.
