Follow Me...:
The Story of the Six Day War Video or DVD
On
June 5, 1967, fourteen hostile armies from three huge Arab nations
suddenly descended upon the state of Israel from every side and
direction. Yet in just six days, this tiny country not only defended
herself, but won a decisive victory that changed the map of the
Middle East.

Egyptian MIGs exploding in the cross hairs of Israeli
jet sights, infantry troops pressing through the Sinai, and the
momentous and emotional reunification of Jerusalem are just a few
of the scenes you will witness in Follow Me's carefully selected
series of the most up-close and intimate footage available from
the Six Day War. Thirty seven Israeli combat photographers captured
Israeli training, emergency preparations, strategy as explained
to the soldiers themselves, fighting in the trenches, prisoners
of war, aftermath, and memorial ceremonies- previously censored
footage which was made available exclusively for this film. Combined
with media coverage and accompanied by fascinating and informative
narration, this video is a source of enlightenment for every viewer
concerned with the current conflict in the Middle East, and is certain
to provide you with a better historical and geographical understanding
of the "Green Line" debate, the "Road Map" proposal,
and the Peace-for-Land compromises so often spoken of today.
