This second serving of Bartov in the New York Times was likely meant to promote his extreme anti-Israel narratives. And with its platform, the paper may have succeeded. But it came with a hidden cost.
What exactly was the audience applauding when the screening of Naza ended at the Venice Film Festival? What was it? The war? The addition of yet more false material intended to constrain Israel’s ability to defend itself, asks CAMERA Español's Marcelo Wio in The Objective.

Post-Oct. 7, one would have at least hoped that there would be some soul-searching among supporters of the Palestinian cause and a reaction along the lines of “this is not how we imagined Palestinian resistance” or a “not in my name” campaign. However, neither distancing nor clarity was to be, CAMERA's Adam Levick writes in JNS.
