Dec-01 7:30p.m. SBS2-TV: Trails from the East: Israel – Them and Us
Tonight’s train journey takes us to Beersheva, Ashdod, Tel Aviv, then Haifa and to the far northern Nassariyah, bordering with Lebanon.
No region in the world shows a clearer divide between ‘us’ and ‘them’ than the one existing between Israelis and Palestinians. But even here the picture is not simply black and white. On board the train, passengers discuss their views on peace and war, on safety and terror, and on secular and orthodox Jews. (From the Netherlands, in English, Hebrew, Arabic and Russian)
