How was Entebbe a propaganda movie?

It’s about the rescue of Israelis from a hijacked plane in Uganda

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s brother ( one of the rescuers) was killed

How was Entebbe a propaganda movie?

Entebbe was not only strongly pro-Israel, it was strongly pro-Shimon Peres and anti-Yitsak Rabin. It made Rabin look like a woos. It was also strongly pro-coalition cabinet, showing that a cabinet of people who often disagree with each other can come to support a plan of action.

It made German terrorists look like idiots.

If all of that is the truth, then the truth is propaganda. We don’t see the anti-semites flocking to support Entebbe.

The trailer looked good; I was looking forward to see the great planning and execution of the raid, but then I read too many reviews (pre-reviews?) that said the movie wanted us to see the kidnapping and psychological torture and murder of the innocents from the terorists’ point of view.

23% critics reviews, 42% “liked it”
