Im Tzirtu, an organization created after the second Lebanon war which "acts to strengthen and promote Zionist values in Israel", is running pickets and media protests against a Tel Aviv theater's engagement (to play Bernarda Alba!) of Mohammed Bakri, who made a controversial 2002 movie about the Israeli Defence Forces' actions in Lebanon's Jenin refugee camp.
