Neta Shoshani\u2019s two-part documentary series 1948 \u2013 Remember, Remember Not, is available now on KAN 11 (kan.org.il) and has been the focus of considerable controversy. Shlomo Karhi, the communications minister, actually said that he would cut funding from KAN, Israel\u2019s public broadcaster, if it aired this series about the War of Independence. <\/a><\/p>\n The Film Review Council also tried to stop screenings of it in 2024, after it premiered at the 2023 Docaviv Festival.<\/p>\n What has raised hackles is that it looks at the run-up to the war and the war itself from both Israeli and Palestinian perspectives, looking at casualties and killings on both sides, supported by testimonies from both Jews and Arabs and rare archival footage, much of which has never been screened in public before.<\/p>\n The first part looks at the war, and while we all know how that war ended, many of us do not know a great deal about how it began, or even what happened during the course of it, other than a few famous battles.<\/p>\n The second part looks at researchers, archivists, and members of the unit for finding missing soldiers, who are still searching for those who fell on the battlefield and have never been found. There is a great deal reported in this densely packed series, and what Karhi and others have mainly objected to are Arab accusations of atrocities by Jewish soldiers.<\/a><\/p>\n
