At Least Let Us Hate Fauda (Haaretz)
SAYED KASHUA In the Israeli TV series there are no rulers or ruled, no occupation, no historical background, no checkpoints, no poverty, no home demolitions, no expulsions, settlers or violent soldiers

In general, Israeli movies and television, whether highbrow or for the masses, have always served the ruling Israeli discourse.
