From Ken Burns, no. Nor really anything like that on PBS; they have a two-part documentary that is much less ambitious, races through the period from the League of Nations mandate through to the Arab-Israeli wars. It isn't something that's going to generate letters of complaint from Evangelist Christian congressmen.
It's a lot easier to make a documentary about Vietnam because it ended 50 years ago. Israel/Palestine continues to be a burning issue. I don't know of anything made in any country on this subject on the same scale as the Vietnam series. I don't know when if ever it would be possible to make such a series in the U.S.

Is there an Israel/Palestine version of this series? I’ve not got enough knowledge on the situation and would like to know more.
