Ash-Shatat
Ash-Shatat
Ash-Shatat (Script error: The function "langx" does not exist.) is a 29-part Syrian television series produced in 2003 by a private Syrian film company, Linn, at a cost of $5.1m.[1] The series has been criticized for being based in part on The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, reflecting anti-Semitic stereotypes and themes, and depicting Jews engaging in a conspiracy to rule the world. It also repeats traditional blood libels against Jews, such as the murder of Christian children and the use of their blood to bake matzah.[2]
Although produced in Syria with support from various Syrian government entities, Syrian national television declined to air the program.[1] Ash-Shatat was instead shown on Lebanon's Al-Manar, leading to a ban on the channel in France. Al-Manar claimed the ban was political and influenced by Israel and Jewish lobbies.[3] The series was also shown in Iran in 2004 and in Jordan during October 2005 on Al-Mamnou, a Jordanian satellite network.[4]
