Also Available in French. "The most honest, historically accurate, and balanced treatment of the past and contemporary history of Muslim-Jewish relations I have ever seen." Dr. Mark R. Cohen, Professor of Near Eastern Studies, Princeton University "Epic in its scope and depth, JEWS AND MUSLIMS: INTIMATE STRANGERS offers a captivating and visually-striking deconstruction of 14 centuries of rich history shared between Jews and Muslims." Atlanta Jewish Film Festival Recommended: Video Librarian Jews and Muslims are seen as the archetype of enemies in endless conflict, a perception made of misunderstandings and omissions. Yet history shows us that the conflict and tension is quite recent, a mere 150 years. By traveling back to the time of Muhammad and then forward to present day, the goal of this balanced and well-researched series is to lay out the facts and deconstruct historical misbeliefs.
