The Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign is pleased to announce that the European Première of the multi-award winning documentary film Occupation 101 will take place in Liberty Hall Theatre, Dublin at 7:30 PM on Tuesday 6th November 2007.
Multi-award winning documentary, Occupation 101
Multi-award winning documentary, Occupation 101



A thought-provoking and powerful documentary film on the current and historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. government involvement, Occupation 101 provides a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the conflict and dispels many myths and misconceptions. The film also details life under Israeli military rule, the United States' role in the conflict, and the major obstacles which stand in the way of a lasting and viable peace. Rare footage and testimony never shown by most media outlets are presented. The roots of the conflict are explained with incisive commentaries from leading Middle East scholars, peace activists, journalists, religious leaders and humanitarian workers whose voices have too often been suppressed in Western media.

Tickets are €10 or €5 for unwaged/students. To book in advance - please call the IPSC office on 01-6770253 or email us on [email protected].

What a great night it was!

Just a well done and thanks to all our comrades and friends who put in an amazing amount of work that ensured the fantastic success of last night. The Liberty Hall Auditorium was full to the brink, people had to move to the balcony and when that was full a few late comers were actually turned away. I calculated we had close to 420 people - the biggest ever close door meeting of the IPSC for quite a while. The DVD of Occupation 101 was flying - over 150 copies were bought and, for a while, we ran out of copies. Just hope many of the people who bought the DVD organise local shows in schools, communities and workplaces. The IPSC will, if requested, supply you with speakers.
Occupation 101 is showing tonight in Limerick, then Ballyshannon and Belfast.
Pity the Israeli Ambassador who got a personal invitation did not turn up - he would have learnt a few things.
