Martin Himel

Martin Himel is a Canadian-Israeli film maker working for Global TV, WorldFocus and PBS. Himel has been involved in making propaganda documentaries against solidarity activists opposed to Israeli policies.

Alex Kane reports:
 * Another of Himel's films, titled "Jenin: Massacring Truth," was praised by Aish Hatorah, a Zionist organization linked to West Bank settlements. And at a B'nai Brith-sponsored Ze’ev Jabotinsky Memorial event, Himel criticized a separate film about the Concordia protest by saying that the film "interviewed a self-hating Jew who agreed with the Arabs!

Ali Abunimah, the co-founder of ElectronicIntifada, reports that on 5 February 2012 he was at one time asked for an interview by a group misrepresenting themselves as working for the CBC (the Canadian broadcaster), only to find that Himel falsely portrayed himself thus to gain access and interview conference participants. Himel has never worked for CBC.
