Yigal Carmon, founder of Memri, an organization that monitors Middle East media, talked about Arab anti-semitism and shared video clips of Imams and leaders, Morsi and others, demonizing Jews, denying and distorting the facts of the Holocaust, and urging their people “to complete the job”. He also shared a representative clip (59:33) of a new brand of Muslim scholar in the middle East, openly and clearly refuting Holocaust denial and other anti-semitic myths on Arab television. Carmon claims that although the anti-semitism continues to exist, this new breed of scholars has become possible due to the the Arab Spring.

Synopsis SEVEN DEADLY MYTHS, (Israel/Palestine, 2013, 55 min) Three years after the holocaust the Middle East was changed forever when Israel fought and won its independence. In that war, two-thirds of the Palestinians became refugees. In the years following, their properties and history were confiscated and destroyed, while to this day they remain in camps all over the Arab world. They never stopped fighting for their right to return to their homes, many of which were demolished. But it was not the houses; it was the very memory of this national trauma that was itself erased. In a new documentary, Seven Deadly Myths(working title), former Israeli settler and journalist Lia Tarachansky sheds light on the collective amnesia of Israelis when it comes to the fateful events of those years. She follows the transformation of four 1948 veterans as they uncover and challenge decades of denied memories. She then returns to her own settlement, in the heart of the occupied West Bank, to uncover a landscape of denial and a history of erasure.
