NAZA is a simply horrible specter,

My own humble contribution talks about ethics, and the ONLY role Jews and Jewish-Israelis are permitted to take. Ethically.
"...our Palestinian brothers and sisters, the greatest journalists to have lived and died on the job, ... have exposed the
#IDF’s guts for the offal that they are.
INSTEAD,
#NAZA producers ought to have taken down names.
NAZA producers should have deposed the serial killers as a police officer would depose a criminal.
NAZA film producers then should have handed the footage, not to the Venice Film Festival, but to The Hind Rajab Foundation ..." ©2026 ilana mercer.

I'm disgusted by defenses that these Israeli filmmakers were entitled to give genocicdal murderers anonymity "because we need their stories." No. There is more than enough information in the open, including confessions and bragging by leaders and lower-rank perpetrators.
There is more than enough testimony from Palestinian victims. What we need is accountability and justice, and "confessions" from Israeli murderers granted anonymity and protection by fellow Israelis is far from that. We are drowning in videos, photos and firsthand testimony of this genocide, evidence that is being ignored. It's the best documented genocide in history.
Maybe this film contributes some additional details but it doesn't change the overall picture. It is just more shooting and crying. And shooting and crying with no consequence is another revolting performance of impunity and reputation laundering for the genocidal entity.
If the Israeli filmmakers are seriously interested in justice they should hand over all the information they have, especially the names of the perpetrators, to ICC prosecutors. Or publish them if no court is willing to do its duty.
Enough shooting and crying and winning awards. Enough.
