    Tears of Gaza = 90 minutes of slaughter

    You can compare Tears of Gaza with Passion of the Jew by Mel Gibson in South Park. It is only 90 minutes of people getting slaughtered. I understand that the world should see how horrible Palestine got it, but is it really necessary to show it for 90 minutes? This film does nothing but show one perspective of the conflict, that is OK, but we do not get any briefing on why they are being bombed, we don't even see who the bombers are nor hear anything from them at all. I believe that the film would express more sympathy for Palestine if they i confronted Israel with the photos the got; how can this sort of action be defended?

    During the film we get three stories from three different children. Yet we also get stories from others during the film, I believe they try to create more sympathy when they hear stories from children. This does not work for me, the stories are also mixed with others and the storyline in this film is... well... a pathetic attempt to get sympathy.

    I agree that the world should see how they have to live day by day, but this is not the way.

    excellent film

    You can see it made some evil zionists mad and they are lying claiming that by slaughtering children that the zionist colonialists are "just defending themselves and their homeland against attackers, murderers, terrorists". How evil these zionists are to try to justify their war crimes. Justice will be done one day.

    I will never forget Tears of Gaza

    Gazas tårer/ Tears of Gaza by Vibeke Løkkeberg is up there with other Greate documentaries like Bowling for Columbine By Michael Francis Moorend,Farenheit 9/11 and Arnas Children By Juliano Mer Khamis and Danniel Danniel!

    Its a disturbing documentary who presents the terror and the impact of the terror,by and on the traumatized children of Gaza in Palestine.

    The scene that struck my heart, and that I shall never forget is showing a little girl who is standing inside his room and agitated tells the cameraman that gas bombs have destroyed all her clothes and favorite things. "What is she supposed to wear? everything is ruined! "She is 4 or 5 years old!

    It is a documentary that will make you feel! And it may also cause you to act! I wish you a great viewing experience! This movie you will not forget!

    With lots of love frame Norway! ..Peace!!!

    Great but Profoundly Disturbing

    I saw this film at the Toronto Film Festival and was very moved by it. There's nothing happy about it, though, so be warned that it is an exhausting emotional experience that will leave you feeling somewhat angry and helpless.

    The likelihood of this film ever seeing a general release in the US is remote to non-existent. It's just too politically charged and will probably be viewed as anti-Israel (which I don't think it is). I'm hoping that at the very least it will be available for download on the internet or, heaven forbid, it will be released on DVD. I think this is a very important film for the general public to see because it looks at the conflict between Jews and Palestinians in very human terms. Yes, it's true that the perspective we see is that of the Palestinians, but what's wrong with that? It's called "Point of View" filmmaking. Not everything has to be a balanced piece of journalism, especially when deeply human stories are involved. Anyway, I hope you get a chance to see it.

    A great war film! No lies of F/X

    This is one of the purest films I have ever watched, I recommended highly! First of all it is 100% pure footage of what is it like to be on the ground as a witness of what Israel claims to us all over the world as a military targets. A user of IMDb wrote in a review by moacow" we did not see the other side justification for this type of bombing" What a numb-skull user moacow is…How in the world can you or any one justifies bombing a civilian home or a hospital or a school or even shooting with a sniper rifle babies and more. MOACOW YOU CANNOT! that is why you did not see it in the film. Israel does not explain its U.N. and international courts condiment actions to anyone in the world.

    As an English now American and married to a lovely American Jewish woman, I hope one day soon I will witness peace in Israel! We as people with understanding to life, we cannot let Israel continue the mass murders of Palestinians. Bloody hell! Did you notice the Israeli in-discriminant bombing of Palestinians? What kind of Army men with sniper rifles that shoots at babies and civilians? My grand fathers did not fight the criminal Hitler so Israel can take over his criminal role now they act exactly like if not worse than Hitler. My wife is ashamed of Israel and its despicable treatment of people. That is why we all must not allow Israel to enjoy our hard earned money taxes going to support their criminal behavior. We must pressure Israel to sign the 1948 agreement with the Palestinians. If they do sign it all troubles in the East will stop and maybe for once the world will not look down at our policies regarding the world. Please join me and write to your congressman and senator to pressure Israel in to signing the 1948 agreement with Palestine and stop the bloodshed of innocent people. One cannot claim to be a human being and agree with Israeli violence!
