Israel and the Arabs - Elusive Peace(2005)

Israel and the Arabs: Elusive Peace is a three-part British documentary series that examines the failed peace negotiations between Israel and Palestine following the 2000 Camp David Summit. Produced by Norma Percy, who previously created the acclaimed The Death of Yugoslavia, the series relies on extensive interviews with key political figures including former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, US President Bill Clinton, and Secretary of State Colin Powell. Broadcast on BBC Two in October 2005, the documentary traces the diplomatic efforts and obstacles that prevented a lasting resolution to one of the world's most intractable conflicts. Through firsthand accounts from those directly involved in negotiations, the series offers an insider's perspective on the complex political, historical, and personal dynamics that shaped Middle East peace efforts during this critical period.
