‘No Other Land’ Filmmaker Hamdan Ballal Freed, Says Co-Director
Following the Palestinian filmmaker’s attack and arrest, directors including Alex Gibney and Liz Garbus signed a petition calling for his release

Following his attack by Israeli settlers and subsequent arrest by Israeli authorities, Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal — the co-director of the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land — has been freed. “After being handcuffed all night and beaten in a military base, Hamdan Ballal is now free and is about to go home to his family,” Ballal’s co-director Yuval Abraham wrote on X. It was Abraham’s posts that helped circulate the news of Ballal’s attack, which occurred just outside his West Bank village home. Abraham first reported on Monday, March 24 that Ballal was “lynched,” but then issued a correction: “Note: Hamdan was assaulted and beaten up, not murdered,” he said. “My use of ‘lynched’ was a mistranslation from Hebrew (English isn’t my first language). He’s injured and being held at a police station in a settlement. They did not let his lawyer speak to him yet so we don’t know more.” The Center for Jewish Nonviolence (CJNV), an activist group with members who were on the scene, told Rolling Stone in a statement that “dozens of settlers” attacked the Palestinian village of Susiya in the Masafer Yatta area of the southern West Bank, which occurred on Monday around 6 p.m. local time. The masked assailants — who were reportedly carrying weapons that included knives, batons, and at least one assault rifle — allegedly attacked “two homes, destroyed water tanks, and stole security cameras.” Ballal’s attack and arrest made international news, and resulted in several filmmakers signing a petition calling for his release. As of this writing, it has nearly 7,000 signatures. “Reports that Mr. Ballal was forcibly removed by the Israeli army from an ambulance following a brutal attack by settlers, and subsequently detained without clear information regarding his whereabouts, deeply alarm us,” reads the petition, which was signed by Alex Gibney, Liz Garbus, Roger Ross Williams, and others. “Such treatment of an internationally acclaimed filmmaker gravely undermines artistic freedom, human rights, and freedom of speech — core values vital to democratic societies.” Commenting on IndieWire’s Instagram post, actor Mark Ruffalo wrote, “Every filmmaker and academy member should be acting together in protest. No matter where you stand on this issue this is an attack on our beloved art from of filmmaking. Hamden Ballal is a political prisoner, and this is an international incident and violation of human rights. Many of us are not surprised by this behavior from the lawless settlers and the IDF at this point. Kill journalists and abducting filmmakers is not an accident but a design for the eradication of a people and their culture. Free Ballal!” Filmed by both Palestinian and Israeli activists, No Other Land was co-directed by Ballal, Abraham, Basel Adra, and Rachel Szor. Prior to winning the Oscar for Best Documentary, Adra and Abraham spoke to Rolling Stone about the situation in the West Bank and whether or not the nomination has helped. “So far, it has not,” Adra said. “That’s the sad part. The movie is doing very well outside, in festivals, among audiences, and having a focus from media. But the situation on the ground is going very badly.” Added Abraham: “We are going to continue to document, because that is what we do. I don’t know how effective it is and I can still hope it will have some effect eventually. But right now, as Basel said, it’s very hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.”

Clearly he wasn’t lynched.

But that ruins the narrative....

The narrative that he was assaulted and beaten in front of his home? Then taken into custody by the Israeli police?

And the word “lynched” was used by the Jewish Israeli guy who said he was translating from Hebrew. Read. The. Article.

The persistent narrative that "all Palestinians are innocent victims, never mind that they raised, indoctrinated, sheltered, and supported Hamas", and "Jews are all evil and have no right to their country or to self-defense".

Versus your narrative that all Jews are innocent angel babies just trying to live in peace on land they in no way stole, and that every Palestinian is a terrorist literally from birth with no right to fight for their freedom and control of their homeland which was definitely not forcibly taken from them, who deserves to die and is mere collateral damage in this righteous war.

That's actually pretty close to the objective facts, so sounds much more plausible and worthy of support than the Palestinian version which inculcates endless futile terrorism and deaths, all stemming from the refusal in 1948 to accept separate Palestinian and Jewish homelands. They made their choice, they have been rewarded accordingly.

Kosovo was taken away from it. Ukraine was taken away from it. Croatia was taken away from them by Astro Hungary. Romania was also part of the Habsburg Empire, but it was taken away from them.
The Czech Republic, too. Poland? Most of the time, it was parts of Germany and Russia. These were states that existed with real borders. Orban keeps saying that Croatia has no right to exist. Is he right?
The Greece/Eastern Roman Empire also encompassed present-day Turkey. Should they take it and make it Greece? Should Mexico invade and take back much of the Western U.S?
Countries change; borders are not forever. Palestine never existed as a land-border country.
Rules of the world are such, weak lose, strong win. There is nothing but quest for land and money.
Shall I go on?

Why did the last Democrat administration throw so many billions of taxpayer dollars to Israel?

Sure, you can take that stance. But then you should also have no issue with Palestinians fighting by any means necessary to take back what was taken from them. We only call them terrorists because the settlers are white and friendly to our country.

The issue is when people try to make a moral argument about what is happening, as though both sides do not have blood on their hands and as though Israel has just been innocently minding their business and no one can under why these people hate them.

This man was in his home in the West Bank. How is that an accurate comparison?

The Palestinians have been engaging in war and terror since 1948 with the same results every time. You should have no issue with them being repeatedly crushed, given their "any means necessary" approach, futile though it has always been. We call them terrorists because that is what they are.

If terrorist means nothing more than people who don't look like us and who won't just let us take their sh!t without a fight, then sure, Palestinians are terrorists.

The group of armed KKK-like masked settlers that lynched No Other Land director Hamdan Ballal (still missing), caught here on camera.

Has Israel entirely abandoned the rule of law? The guy was a documentary film maker…

It's long been established that that rules of law don't apply to Israel, and they get rewarded with it in US taxpayer money.

Are we GREAT yet America

If you believe that no state is “forever”, how do you square that with your insistence that Israel has a right to exist, which is suggestive at least of “forever”?

For the record, I don’t believe that ANY state possesses natural or other rights, including the “right to exist”. That extends to the U.S. (and Israel, too). Like all other nations, our ability to persist as the U.S.A. will pivot on the consequences of our collective actions. And those collective actions have taken a broadside over the past several decades, and especially over the past 10-15 years.

Just like Israel is called a terrorist state. Israel was founded on terrorism (google the bombing of the King David hotel) and it continues to terrorize the Palestinians every day.

At least the Israelis win every engagement, while the Palestinians lose every single time. What do they say about doing the same thing over and over and expe3cting different results?
