Richard Allen Landes (born June 26, 1949) is an American historian and author, specializing in Millennialism. He coined the term "Pallywood" for what he considers the practice of "staged filming" of "evidence" against Israel for the benefit of the Palestinians. He currently serves as an associate professor in the Department of History at Boston University. Landes was the director of the now quiescent Center for Millennial Studies. Landes is the son of the late Harvard Professor of Economics and History David S. Landes. ==Israel and "Pallywood"== Landes is notable for views on the use of film footage related to conflicts in Israel, in particular his use of the term Pallywood (Palestinian Hollywood), which is described by Ruthie Blum, writing in the ''Jerusalem Post'', as a term coined by Landes to refer to "productions staged by the Palestinians, in front of (and often with cooperation from) Western camera crews, for the purpose of promoting anti-Israel propaganda by disguising it as news." Landes himself describes Pallywood as "a term I coined... to describe staged material disguised as news." Landes cites the film of the shooting of Muhammad al-Durrah, the Gaza beach blast and Hamas's alleged exploitation of electricity shortages during the 2007–2008 Israel-Gaza conflict, as incidents of Pallywood. 〔(One on One: Framing the debate ), Jerusalem Post〕 He maintains two web sites: * ''Second Draft'' depicts the perceived pro-Palestinian, anti-Israeli bias in some media reports from the Middle East. * ''Augean Stables'' includes more in-depth articles about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and related issues. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard Landes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
