Sure.

Mussa said I should make sure you did.

Look, it's not easy for one of us

to go against the lsraeli army.

Truth is that since I came back,

I only had divorce cases,

and even those are hard to

get these days...

It's your decision...

Salma...

Salma...

Daddy!

Higher, Salma. Reach higher...

Dad...

Hello, Mrs. Zidane.

Hello.

Please, come in.

Come in...

Thank you.

We've... I've appealed

to the Military Court.

We should be summoned soon.

This is your copy.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Here you go.

Thanks.

From your grove, yes?

Yes.

Very tasty, bless your hands.

Hello, Abu Hussam.

Hello.

Abu Hussam's been working for us

for 50 years now.

Attorney Ziad Daud.

Pleased to meet you.

You look just like my father...

Pleased to meet you.

Don't you want to show him the grove?

Why not...?

Abraham says:

Like all Namibians,

Christopher, too, breeds fish,

which is why I was surprised

to see he had a beard.

Which of the following cannot be

concluded from Abraham's saying:

do not normally grow beards.

This is their Minister's house.

Your neighbor is good looking.

I mean, Jewish women

know how to take care of themselves.

You have 10 seconds left.

Shut up, stupid...

Did you choose a caterer?

I thought about authentic Arabic food.

Shall I check the Arab restaurant we know?

Samir's place?

Yes.

Won't we have kosher problems?

I don't want trouble

with the Orthodox parties.

But why go so far?

Ask our Palestinian neighbor

to cater for us.

She does catering? I had no idea.

What? Why?

She's suing me.

Really? What did we do to her?

Nothing yet, but we will.

We are cutting down all her trees.

Why?

Because terrorists might infiltrate

Israel through her grove.

Makes sense, no?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I have nothing against her.

So who does?

The Secret Service do,

and I trust their judgment.

Fine, I didn't say anything.

Now the whole world will think

I have something against Arabs.

Know what? Go for Samir.

The PM loves his food.

Just make sure he keeps the food kosher.

Your Honor, I'm sure the army thanks

the learned attorney

for his advise on lsrael's security,

but as I've already stated,

the grove poses a real and imminent

threat to the Minister's household

and to the State, so...

How can you claim my client's grove

poses a threat to the state's security?

It's been there for over 50 years,

and not a single shot was fired from it.

Only since September 2000,

more than 20,000 terror attacks

were perpetrated by terror organizations

on the lives, bodies and property

of Jewish civilians.

Terrorists will use the appellant's
