'Jenin, Jenin' filmmaker slams IDF soldiers who sued him for libel
A confrontation broke out between Israeli Arab director Mohammad Bakri, who is being sued for libel for making the film "Jenin, Jenin," and prosecution laweyer Yisrael Caspi, who represents IDF soldiers. Caspi slammed Bakri during a hearing, saying that he "serves the enemy, and received money from the enemy." In response, Bakri called Caspi and his clients "stray dogs." Court security had to hold them back to prevent a violent fight from breaking out between them.
Earlier in the hearing, Justice Miriam Naor offered Bakri the option of apologizing for the film. (Aviad Glickman)
