Palestine-Israel: An Animated History

Here’s a fascinating animated clip describing the endless fighting in Israel that began over 2000 years ago and continues today. It comes from Nina Paley’s blog which you can view here.  Jenna Kagel, writing for World Mic, describes the video this way:

The video at first glance is startling and the use of humorous animation is galling, but the message is important: This historical loop of fighting, ingrained with intricate layers, has affected and will continue to affect the lives of many for a long time to come.

And below, you can see part of Paley’s program which describes the different players. You can see the entire program at her blog.
