Arabs and Israelis offers softer voices in Middle East conflict
A New York AP report notes WGBH Boston presents Arabs and Israelis, an eight part public TV series featuring Arab and Israeli family interviews. The first half hour focuses on peace hopes and the 1973 Yom Kippur War’s human cost with a Cairo journalist and an Israeli documentarian collaborating in Geneva. The program highlights a mother and a tank commander’s uncle, contrasting calls for coexistence with warnings that force cannot secure respect. The next episodes will cover Golan Heights, Palestinians, and life in Jerusalem, with further production underway.
