Hard times: Pro-Israel group will pay young Jews $100 to watch its movies

You’ve surely heard that young American Jews are turning away from Israel. They don’t really care that much about the Jewish state. Well a pro-Israel propaganda shop has the answer. Jerusalem U is dedicated to building a connection between American Jews and Israel by producing pro-Israel documentaries.

And the Israel brand has fallen on such hard times that the organization is paying young people a “stipend” of $100 to watch its movies.

Here are some of the movies you can watch for your C-note.

This one’s about being an Israeli soldier. “Beneath the Helmet: From High School to the Home Front. An inspiring coming-of-age film about five Israeli soldiers.”

This one’s called Israel Inside, about how a small nation makes a big difference. This one’s called Crossing the Line and is about anti-semitism on campus. This one’s about the birth of Israel. This one’s called Media 101 and is about how the media is biased.

Here’s all you have to do to get $100:

Attain an 80% on the series exams. (Sorry, but we do need to make sure you watched the videos!)

Attend 1-2 live events coordinated by Jerusalem U. Live events may include participation in an event on campus or a live interactive webinar.

Complete entire series within 6 weeks of the start date

Further qualifications say that you must be “between the ages of 18-26.”

Time was when young Jews really cared about Israel and didn’t have to be bribed to care. Times have changed.

Wouldn’t it work just as well, and be a lot cheaper, simply to get “Exodus,” “Cast a Giant Shadow,” and “Operation Thunderbolt” from Netflix and watch them until your eyes bleed?

Maybe we can use this thread to recommend for the young’uns the “best worst” Zionist films of all time. My own guilty pleasure is “The Pirate” (1978). That movie had it all: noble Isrealis; a libidinous Arab playboy (who’s really a Jew raised by Arabs); wicked Palestinian terrorists who kill while wearing IDF uniforms! The kids’ll love it.

Is there no limit that Israel will not go to spread propaganda? This program shows how afraid Israel is of losing the future support of American Jews.

It smells of desperation. Perhaps they are afraid they are losing the young Jews, who will not buy their narrative that Israel is a victim and they must all support it. How long can you keep scamming your people, and thanks to the internet and social media, even young Jews are opening their eyes to the truth. I guess the illegal squatters might buy this.

I guess you can depend on people who are willing to be “bought”. Anyhow, the first clip had GREEEEEAAAT music.

Where do I sign up.I am willing to watch as many as they can supply.Hell , this would augment my meager income but do I have to be Jewish or fellate a donkey to prove my ever dying love to the cause.

If I get the gig , I will donate half the proceeds to MW.
