Friends,
I spent most of my life in Israel, and many of those years – far too many years – were under the rule of Prime Minister Netanyahu.
When I look at the Israel of my childhood and the Israel of today, I’m beside myself. The longest-serving leader in Israeli history has trashed the Jewish homeland’s founding principles of freedom, justice and peace in exchange for power.
Corruption has defined Netanyahu’s career, as a highly-anticipated documentary that unpacks and exposes the self-serving motivations of the Prime Minister makes clear.
The Bibi Files tells the story of Israel as a country helmed by Netanyahu, who – in order to save himself – has nurtured an anti-democratic, extreme right for years and more recently, pursued endless war at the expense of the hostages.
Next week, we’ll be joined by the filmmakers for an inside look into the creation of the documentary, and I hope you can join us. Starting today, you can watch The Bibi Files at our exclusive link below and sign up for our J Street friends-and-family-only Q&A.

We’ll be joined by Bibi Files director Emmy-nominated Alexis Bloom, Oscar-winning producer Alex Gibney and former Israeli Shin Bet chief Adm. (ret.) Ami Ayalon, who provides critical on-screen analysis in the documentary. Our guests will have plenty of time to answer your questions, which you can submit ahead of time or during the discussion itself.

Next week, Netanyahu will put on a show for the American public when he lands in DC to meet Trump. There has never been a more important time for us to see the Prime Minister for who he really is, and as someone who has watched The Bibi Files, I can assure you Netanyahu’s true character is on full display. We hope you join us for this unique opportunity. Register here >>
