While producing my documentary film, The Future of Israel and Its Defenders, I had the opportunity to interview Noa Tishby, who was then Israel’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism and Promote Holocaust Remembrance. Tishby, a best-selling author, sought to educate those who misunderstand Israel through her insightful work.

Israel, we can all agree, is misunderstood now more than ever. But that misunderstanding is not Israel’s fault or a problem with its own public relations. It’s a pervasive issue that involves a one-sided media that refuses to tell the public the truth. It involves subterfuge at the highest echelons of the United Nations, the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice. A false narrative is dispersed on campuses, in politics and unions, meant to undermine Israel’s legitimacy.
