BBC: The Birth of Israel (2008)

Comment: Haven't seen it yet, just cross-posting. You have to be cautious what the "Bush and Blair Corportation" feeds you, but given that the "Pro-Israel" crowd apparently hates the piece, it can't be that bad.

Here we go with the official description:

Jeremy Bowen presents a look back at the creation of the state of Israel, examining the the events leading up to the Israeli war of Independence in 1949, its impact on Arab/Israeli relations and the implications for the Middle East.
