Zahra's Blue Eyes (Persian:جشمهاى آبى زهرا), also titled ''For You, Palestine'', is an Iranian television series which premiered in 2004 on Sahar 1. It was created by 'Ali Derakhshi, a former official of the Iranian Education Ministry. Set in the West Bank, the plot of the series mostly centers around Israeli military and civilians conspiring to steal the eyes of Palestinian children. It was made in Persian but also dubbed into Arabic for further broadcast. In 2006, it was also shown in Turkish in Germany on Milli Görüs’ TV5.〔(The Stephen Roth Institute for the Study of Antisemitism and Racism - Germany 2006 ). Section title: Muslims in Germany and Antisemitism.〕 In February 2005, the French Broadcasting Authority ordered the French satellite provider Eutelsat to stop transmitting broadcasts from the Iranian satellite TV channel Sahar 1 because of its broadcast of the series.〔(The Stephen Roth Institute for the Study of Antisemitism and Racism - France 2005 ). Section title: Responses to Racism and Antisemitism.〕 ==Plot== The series depicts Israeli doctors harvesting organs from Palestinian children, and it focuses on the campaign of fictional prime-ministerial candidate Yitzhak Cohen, who declares in a speech that Jews "are the best of the races in the world." Cohen becomes obsessed with seizing the eyes of a young Palestinian girl named Zahra. To this end, Israelis pose as United Nations employees who come to a Palestinian school and check children in order to "prevent the spreading of an eye disease" but really want to inspect the class for students with the best eyes. After an extremely graphic surgery, Zahra is left blind by the Israeli doctors.〔(How Do You Say Hate in Persian? ) by Hilary Krieger, Jerusalem Post, January 11, 2005.〕 In episode two of the series, it is revealed that the Israeli president is being kept alive by organs stolen from Palestinian children, and an Israeli military commander is seen kidnapping UN employees and Palestinians. All of the Israeli antagonists are dressed in the traditional clothing of religious Jews throughout the series, and the "Israeli" soldiers wear uniforms that are very different from IDF uniforms in actuality. All of the Jewish characters in the series are portrayed as villains, with the exception of an Ethiopian Jew (portrayed by a Caucasian) who helps Zahra after she briefly escapes the "Evil Zionist Palace" and is killed for it shortly after. Multiple protagonists declare the land of Israel to belong to the Palestinians often throughout the series. 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「Zahra's Blue Eyes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
