Today the false Jordanian film "Farha" was aired on Netflix, which shows IDF soldiers committing atrocities in the War of Independence.

The Jordanian director lyingly claims that the film is based on “true stories” with no factual evidence.

The film shows IDF soldiers as murderers, who commit crimes against innocent families children and infants, these "True stories" have zero factual base and are indeed a false claim in order to promote antisemitism and to demonize Israeli soldiers based on false claims.

If this Movie is not taken down from Netflix (or a disclaimer is added!) each person signing this petition pledges to cancel their Netflix subscription and inform their friends about this issue.

“If you don’t know history, it’s as if you were born yesterday. If you were born yesterday then any leader can tell you anything.” -Howard Zinn, American historian (1924-2010)

Update: After doing some due diligence and fact checking I've found these quotes from the writer and director of the movie Darin J. Sallam,

One of the many Issues about the film is factual validity, the "True story" this film is inspired by, is in fact a childhood story told to the director of the film by her mother, who heard it from this "Raddiyeh", who in the movie is portrayed as Farha.

So the validity of the source to start with, is not based on a first hand witness, this is a retelling of a retelling of a retelling.

Quote: “She was a girl who lived in Palestine during the Nakba,” Sallam tells The National. “Her father locked her in the pantry [to protect her]. Her stepmother then let her out later and they both survived, making it to Syria. The father disappeared. After Raddiyeh went to Syria, she met a little girl and told her the story. That little girl was my mother.”

Furthermore the entire details of the scene where IDF soldiers butcher babies and children are fictional, she admits it here, she has never heard of what had happened in the panty since it was never told...

" I used to constantly ask my mother, but she didn’t know as Raddiyeh never went into detail about what had happened in that pantry."

another quote from the writer,

“I like to improvise,” Sallam says. “As an artist, I believe we need to surrender to the moment, to the inspiration."

How can improvised events clearly BASED ON FICTION be labeled (on Netflix!) as "Based on true events", this is misleading and false!

The least Netflix could do is add a disclaimer, let alone not support and publish this film.
