Pierre Rehov

Rehov was born to a Jewish family 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 pieds-noirs (French people living in Algeria) fleeing from Algeria in fear of reprisal massacres by Algerians against their non-Muslim neighbors as the Algerian War ended and Algerian independence loomed. Rehov says he was not any sort of activist until he saw the death of Muhammad al-Durrah on television, and doubted its authenticity – a claim later questioned in French courts to be defamatory in the case against Philippe Karsenty because, according to the Judges, "Karsenty didn't have the proof, in hands, that Palestinians actually killed the kid, when he was sued by the French TV channel France 2". 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. As a journalist and commentator, he writes regularly in Le Figaro, Valeurs Actuelle, The Gatestone Institute, The Jerusalem Post and many political blogs, including Dreuz and Atlantico. Rehov is married to Sharon Yambem, a Jewish immigrant to Israel from India. From a previous marriage he has a son, who lives in Singapore and a daughter who is an actress and lives in New York. A third child was born in 2022 from his second marriage.
