The Jerusalem Institute of Justice (JIJ) has launched a new campaign titled “The Whole Story Project” in an effort to help international observers see past the bias of the mainstream media and understand what is really going on in Israel.

In a series of short videos created for YouTube, Calev Myers, a Messianic Jewish human rights lawyer and founder of the JIJ, will not only explain, but show how Israel is “the only bastion of democracy, of human rights, of freedom in the Middle East,” an aspect of the conflict too often left out of media reports.
