:22:02
The Valley of Jezreel.
:22:05
If you dug straight down far enough there,
you'd find the ruins of Megiddo.

:22:10
You'd find the very same paving stones
that Joshua walked on when he conquered it.

:22:14
That's Abu Yesha. That's an Arab village.
To the left is Gan Dafna.

:22:23
-Do you know your Bible?
-In a Presbyterian sort of way.

:22:31
That's Mount Tabor.
:22:33
I remember.
Where Deborah gathered her armies.

:22:38
That's where she stood when she watched
Barak march out to fight the Canaanites.

:22:43
"So Barak went down from Mount Tabor,
and 10,000 men with him."

:22:47
It's in the Book of Judges.
:22:51
The Canaanites had 900 iron chariots...
:22:54
...but Barak had men.
:22:55
3,200 years ago.
:22:58
That's when the Jews
first came to this valley.

:23:00
It wasn't just yesterday
or the day before.

:23:03
Isn't your father's name Barak?
:23:05
In Russia, he was Yakov Rabinski.
:23:08
But when he came here,
he took the name of Deborah's general.

:23:11
He called himself Barak Ben Canaan.
:23:13
Barak, the son of Canaan, and this valley
became a Jewish land once again.

:23:17
He can give you the date every clump
of trees was planted there, to the month.

:23:22
Don't get excited.
:23:24
We're not debating now.
:23:27
I'll grant anything you say.
:23:30
I just wanted you to know that I'm a Jew.
:23:32
This is my country.
:23:35
I do know. I understand.
:23:38
Sometimes it's not that easy.
:23:41
It's the easiest thing in the world, Ari.
:23:44
All these differences between people
are made up.

:23:47
People are the same,
no matter what they're called.

:23:50
Don't ever believe it.
:23:53
People are different.
:23:55
They have a right to be different.
They like to be different.

:23:58
It's no good pretending
the differences don't exist, they do.
