The Holy Land and Us: Our Untold Stories (2023) User Reviews

Felt like one presenter was willing to be retrospective

Found it a bit unbalanced, rob rinder seemed willing to look at both the good and bad with Israel, while Sarah Agha came off a bit strange when she argued with her own palestinian historian, and when she had to pause for so long when she learned that one of her ancestors protected both Christians and Jewish people. While it may feel strange given how they have treated the palestinian people but at the end of the day Jewish people from a couple hundred of years ago had nothing to do with that and any human should be happy of that. Also I've found the Deir Yassir massacres coverage in other BBC documentaries to be less biased, as the interview with Hazem Nuseibeh recorded that Hussayn Khalidi had exaggerated the deaths as well as fabricated reports regarding the rapes to incite resistance against Israel, having the opposite effect and causing people to flee.
