The Message, first produced in 1976, documents the life of the last Prophet of God, Muhammad (peace be upon him). To this day, it still remains as one of the classics to have been made on the life of the Prophet. The movie, to a large extent, recollects a common historical narrative of the life of the Holy Prophet according to the different Muslim sects, with few points of difference. It depicts the early animosity the Meccans held towards the Prophet and the various forms of persecution he, his family and supporters were subjected to during the Meccan period. A highlight of the movie is the scene that recounts the famous dialogue between the Christian King of Abysinnia and the head of the Prophet's envoy, Ja'far son of Abu Talib, who had travelled along with fellow companions to seek refuge from the injustices of the Meccans.

If awareness is the first step to reform, then this documentary certainly strikes at our collective and individual conscience as human beings.
Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land provides a striking comparison of U.S. and international media coverage of the crisis in the Middle East, zeroing in on how structural distortions in U.S. coverage have reinforced false perceptions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This pivotal documentary exposes how the foreign policy interests of American political elites--oil, the security of the state of Israel driven by fundamentalist political theology, and a need to have a secure military base in the region, among others--work in combination with Israeli public relations strategies to exercise a powerful influence over how news from the region is reported.

In this important lecture delivered at the University of Massachusetts, Said takes aim at one of the central tenets of recent foreign policy thinking-- that conflicts between different and "clashing civilizations" (Western, Islamic, Confucian) characterize the contemporary world. "The real question is whether in the end we want to work for civilizations that are separate, or whether we should be taking the more integrative, but perhaps more difficult path, which is to see them as making one vast whole, whose exact contours are impossible for any person to grasp, but whose certain existence we can intuit and feel and study." -Edward Said

This House believes that Hezbollah had no right to fight a war on Lebanon's behalf
Over the summer, Southern Lebanon and Northern Israel became the world's latest war zone. Lebanon suffered by far the heaviest casualties, counting its dead in the hundreds with hundreds of thousands displaced from their homes and thousands of those homes destroyed.
