The Egyptian TV channel, "Dream" produced a series titled, "A knight without a horse." Israelis criticized it as anti-Semitic and demanded that the Egyptian government stop airing it. The US embassy in Cairo also objected together with many members of Congress. Pro-Israel media in the US also criticized it. The spokesman of the Egyptian government rejected the accusations and called them "intellectual terrorism." The series started to air in more than 20 Arab TV stations during the month of Ramadhan, when tv shows are most seen at night after breaking the fast. Because of the importance of the topic: the US and Israeli intervention to censor intellectual works, Al-Jazeerah will report on the series, on daily basis, by summarizing daily shows and reporting reactions about the topic published in the Arab media.
