Israel's misunderstanding of Islamic goals and values are highlighted by its enthusiasm for Yasser Arafat and the 1993 Oslo Accords.  Next, President George Bush's tragic misunderstanding of 9/11 as a "War Against Freedom," in which the United States played into the hands of Al-Qaeda and the Islamist cause by advocating democratic reform across the Middle East, is revealed.   Finally, the Iranian strategic agenda for acquiring weapons of mass destruction to eliminate Israel comes clearly into focus.  Farewell Israel: Bush, Iran and The Revolt of Islam reaches the unavoidable conclusion that Western and Israeli misunderstanding of Islam is leading to a coming war - which will have devastating consequences for the West, and worst of all for Israel - Farewell Israel!       Film graphics, press materials, and interviews with Film Director Joel Gilbert (in English or Hebrew) are available upon request.    Original Music Score:  Full length original music score performed by Highway 61 Revisited with Bob Dylan's former band members Scarlet Rivera, Rob Stoner, and Bruce Langhorne.  Music soundtrack is included on DVD as MP3s to download to computer or IPOD.   Narration by:  Lance Lewman (PBS NOVA, National Geographic Channel "TABOO")   Running Time:  145 Minutes   Film website and trailer:  www.farewellisrael.com     CONTACTS:                           Joel Gilbert, Director and Producer                         Highway 61 Entertainment Tel.                  805 493 5901 (USA) Email:             jgilbert@highway61ent.com   Bill Mehlman Americans for a Safe Israel Tel.                  (02) 673 5557 (Israel) mail:                wmehlman@zahav.net.il   Herb Zweibon American's For a Safe Israel Tel.                  212 828 2424 (USA) Email:             afsi@rcn.com
