Pierre Rehov

Rehov was born to a Jewish family[7] from Algiers, when Algeria was still a French department. He experienced terrorism at a young age when his school was the target of a terror attack conducted by the "FLN" (Algerian National Front of "Liberation". In 1961, his family became a part of pied-noirs (Non-Muslim inhabitants of Algeria) fleeing from Algeria in fear of massacres. (A purge in Algeria led to the massacre of close to 200,000 people).[8] A later film on Jewish refugees (Silent Exodus) described the fate of Jews who were expelled from or fled Muslim countries between 1948 and 1974. He chose not to describe his own community from Algeria, since the Algerian war was a colonial problem involving France more than the Jewish community, although he recalls that Jews in Algeria had been suffering from Muslim antisemitism for decades, before Algeria was part of France.

Rehov says he was not any sort of activist until he saw the death of Muhammad al-Durrah on television, and doubted its authenticity.[9] He was the first to conduct a journalistic investigation into the murder of al-Durrah whom he still believes was the victim of the Palestinian propaganda machine. It was later demonstrated in a French court that Al Durah could not have been killed by Israeli soldiers.

Rehov claims that every reporter must be (or appear to be) pro-Palestinian to work in the Palestinian territories safely and this, among other things, creates systematic anti-Israeli bias, especially on French media outlets. He advocates a two-state solution, for Palestinians and Israelis to live side by side, but does not believe that peace will be possible for many generations. He puts the blame on the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, that would have no interest in solving the conflict through negotiations since the United Nations and the European Union are biased against Israel.

In January 2008, Rehov was embedded in the 4/1 US cavalry in Baghdad and Durah, where he filmed hours of dailies, showing the situation in Iraq from the field. Those images are part of his documentary The Path to Darkness.

In 2008 Rehov moved to the United States due to what he described as a growing climate of antisemitism in France and the rest of Europe. Three years later, in November 2011, he moved to Tel Aviv, Israel, where he now lives.

Rehov is engaged to Sharon Yambem, a Jewish immigrant to Israel from India. He has a son, who lives in Singapore, and a daughter.
