The film, based on interviews with Elpeleg's grandfather, a military governor, reveals the regime's pervasive control over every aspect of Palestinian life, including curfews, restrictions on movement, and the arbitrary power of life and death wielded by the governors. </p><p>This authority stemmed from the British Mandate's Defense Emergency Regulations (DER), initially enacted to suppress both Jewish and Arab resistance. Ironically, pre-state Zionists decried these regulations, with jurist Yaakov Shimshon Shapira even comparing them to Nazi laws [Source: Tom Segev, "1949: The First Israelis"]. </p><p>Despite this initial opposition, the new Israeli state adopted the DER wholesale for its Arab population, a legacy that continues to impact Palestinian citizens today, with many still fearing reprisal for speaking out, while the majority of Israeli Jews remain unaware of this dark chapter in their nation's history, a silence perpetuated by censorship, even within the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IDF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IDF</span></a>.</p><p><a href="https://www.haaretz.com/life/film/2024-12-19/ty-article-magazine/.premium/death-martial-law-and-censorship-a-dark-period-in-israels-history-is-relevant-today/00000193-daa0-de86-a9f3-fef734190000" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">haaretz.com/life/film/2024-12-</span><span class="invisible">19/ty-article-magazine/.premium/death-martial-law-and-censorship-a-dark-period-in-israels-history-is-relevant-today/00000193-daa0-de86-a9f3-fef734190000</span></a> or <a href="https://archive.is/cjdce" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.is/cjdce</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/palestine" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>palestine</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IsraelOccupation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IsraelOccupation</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IsraelWarCrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IsraelWarCrimes</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DocumentaryFilm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DocumentaryFilm</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TheGovernor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheGovernor</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BritishMandate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BritishMandate</span></a></p>
