Israel actively pursued that

@@shafsteryellow they for sure wanted it, but they didn’t write laws in Libya, Egypt, Iraq etc banning Jews

@@amcc666Well, Israel did pursue false flag attacks in 1954 that gained the name The Lavon Affair intending to pressure Israelis to emigrate

They were offered incentives by Israel to move there. Many did so willingly. There were also persecutions as well as Arabs wanted to unfortunately exact revenge for Palestinians in an unfair way. Many Arabs governments also rightly feared that Israel would use their Jewish populations against them to influence foreign policy and pressure their government just like Jews do in the US still today

There are so many holes in your story, i just dont know where to begin. Youd think that in the age of information, you would have at least come across the numerous sources of information that is available in relation to this most covered of conflicts. You are either totally naive and captured by the usual insidious palestine propaganda, or you are pretending to be impartial, because you have done nothing but regurgitate countless lies, disinformation and propaganda. I used to be pro palestine my whole life because i too swallowed the usual propaganda, cleverly crafted by the most sophisticated of propaganda masters on the so called palestinin side, to appeal to all the usual cues of people in the west. But it was only with the advent of the internet, that i was finally able to deep dive and check out all sides with an honest desire to get to the truth, and I like many others who have also done this deep dive, have come to the only sensible conclusion, which is that we been duped big time by the so called palestine cause, which is nothing short of the most disingenuous cause ever to have existed possibly in the history of humanity. I dont have time to go into all the countless points of history that this video has either missed or deliberately failed to include, but anyone who is genuinely interested in getting closer to the truth, I would recommend a youtuber called Destiny, who recently took an honest and public deep dive from a totally neutral perspective, and shared his findings with his audience. Its not perfect, but at least he was thorough and honest and done in genuine good faith and anyone who is genuinely interested in the truth, should start there and examine what he has found, research it further yourself, and check his conclusions to see if it holds up to the light of day.

While I don’t have the exact stats, today about 80% of Israeli Jews were born in Israel, 14% are immigrants from Europe and the Americas, and the last 6% are from Asia and Africa. This is according to Israel Central Bureau of Statistics. Considering that the majority of Israeli settlers were originally European Jews and American Jews, majority Orthodox in the first and second waves of settlement, its probably not accurate to describe Arabic and North African Jews to be the majority of Israeli Jews.

@@dionysus913 Im Israeli and I can tell you that Mizrahi jews (Arabic and North African jews) are definitely the majority here. Ashkenazi jews are almost considered a minority by this point.

​@@dionysus913Sephardic Jews are the biggest population group, more like a plurality. They aren't the majority but the biggest group.

@@dionysus913 What you're assuming incorrectly is that the majority of Israeli Jews who were born in Israel are descended from the European and American Jews who came prior to 1948. In 1948, the population of Israeli Jews (made overwhelmingly of European and American Jews) was 600,000 and between 1948-1957, roughly 500,000 Jews from the Middle East and North Africa immigrated to Israel, meaning that by 1957, the country's Jewish population was roughly evenly split between people from European/American ancestry and people from MENA. The Jews from MENA had somewhat higher birth rates and so they became the majority of the Jewish population in Israel, at least until Soviet Jewish migration in the 1990s. If we compare Jews with origins from Europe/America and Jews with origins from MENA, there are still more Jews with origins from MENA but not a majority since there is a significant percentage of Israeli Jews with mixed heritage now.

@@oremfrien Neat, I’d love to see where you got those statistics from, by the way. Doesn’t change the fact that the Zionist movement was inspired by European colonialism, was headed by European Jews, and was largely encouraged by European governments. And the first waves of people to arrive were largely European and American Jews, ingrained with a “Manifest Destiny” mindset nearly identical to those of American settlers and British colonists. Take the United States for example: While the demographics of the United States are quite diverse, containing large populations of White, Black, Latiné, Asian, Middle Eastern, Slavic, etc. etc. it is undeniable that the United States was founded by White European men, with the interests of keeping White men at the top of the social ladder. The same is true of Israel. While it now contains a multitude of people of different ethnicities and colors, it was created with the interests of European Jews in mind. (South Africa is also a good example, having a black majority population but having apartheid laws that propped up a white minority, so just having a diversity of population does not necessarily make a nation any less systematically racist or oppressive.) There’s also a storied history of “Ashkenaziation” in which Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jews have become almost a standard for Jewish-ness within Israel itself, with Mizrahi (Arab and North African) Jews and Ethiopian Jews encouraged to integrate into Ashkenazi culture and leave their own cultural customs behind. I believe it’s even addressed in the video itself. It’s not about how many people there are, it’s about the dominant culture and the systems built around that culture.

@@alexanderthegrape5641 Hebrew is an ancient Semitic language (it is the language of most of the Bible) and Yiddish is a variation of High German spoken by Jews throughout Europe and is an Indo-European language. They are both used almost exclusively by Jews.

@@alexanderthegrape5641. Yiddish is a German dialect with spoken in by Jews in Eastern Europe. It’s tied to a couple of different practices in the Holy Roman Empire the Jews came under the authority of the Emperor not the local lord and as such were likely to live in the cities And then, further east, many areas had German aristocracy (e.g. the Teutonic Knights) who ruled over Slavic and Baltic dual populations while the Jews were the Merchant class in the cities. So they spoke German…. With a Jewish accent all over Eastern Europe .

@@alexanderthegrape5641aren’t English and French both Christian languages? 🤣🤣

It’s like saying a Japanese American isn’t an American or that a German Jew isn’t a Jew (like the USA said of Japanese Americans or the Nazis said of German Jews during the Second World War). While they might have different cultural practices, they are still very much of the nation they were born in, whether they be Jewish or any other ethnicity or culture.

​@@godhelp7535History sides with no-one. Both parties of this conflict have committed atrocities and portraying either side as righteous is absolutely wrong.

1. No they didn’t. The name Palestine finds its earliest uses in the roughly translated Egyptian “Peleset” and Assyrian “Palashtu” in referring to the region, as well as the Biblical Philistines. In the Torah, the area of Palestine was never given clearly defined boundaries, but was just said as having been in conflict with the Kingdom of Israel. The Greeks used the term Palestine as early as the 5th Century, and Romans renamed Judea as Syria Palaestina as it was part of larger Syria. It is unknown if this happened before the Bar Kokhba revolt or after. It is inaccurate to say that the name Palestine was exclusively used to pave over Israel and erase Israel’s Jewish roots. 2. When? I’d love to know exactly what colonization or conquest you’re talking about. Was this before or after the Jewish diaspora into the wider European continent after the Bar Kokhba revolt? 3. Muslim wars and aggression? It’s hard to say that this “aggression” is unique to the Muslim nations of the time. Compared to their European counterparts, the Muslim nations were actually considered more peaceful and accepting of different faiths during the Middle Ages. As well as being a hub for growing scientific and mathematical knowledge, Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike were allowed to life their lives practicing their own religion. So painting Muslim nations with such a broad brush just comes off as Xenophobic. What about the aggressive and warmongering Italian states, constantly embroiled in their own civil wars? And their aggressive colonization of the Mediterranean? Wouldn’t that perhaps make Muslim states nervous for a European Catholic invasion? Or maybe you can’t paint states full of “people I don’t like” as violent and destructive without proof.

It's SO biased.

I'm palestinian and that's definitely true. And some were also terrorized by the zionists in their arab countries like throwing hand grenades into synagogues in iraq

​@ot8479Amazing, all three actions are in response to Arab terror against the Jews which started in the 1800s (even before), the list of Arab massacres on Jews is much larger and goes back further.

@@the7screw Thank you so much.

This video is also very biased against Israel and is outright wrong here and there. It misses a lot of important context, which explains a lot of Israel's actions as well as showing the lack of care the governments of the Arab states have for Palestinians.

no doubt the topic is interesting,but why all the thanks,especially when this video ommits so many crucial elements . talking of "colonization" without mentioning it consisted of jews buying land from registered owners in the ottoman land registry the brits kept(and tel aviv,rehovot,petach tikva,west jerusalem outside the walls and many other cities were purchased and built through the roman era). talking of paramilitary violence without mentioning the 1886 attack on petach tikva,1929 hebron and safed massacre or 1938 tiberias massacre(against unarmed sephardi religious communities) is at least "weird". saying we mizrahi jews were "convicned" to move to israel without mentioning we were held as dhimmis till tanzimat(and in practice after as well),that till 1948 we constituted 1/6th of jews in israel,and we built the first neighbourhoods of west jerusalem and tel aviv. its leaving out all the pogroms we suffered from 1903 to 1912 morroco pogroms through 1941 farhud to 1947 aden and aleppo pogroms and the racist legislation against us in egypt and iraq which made us feld the muslim world so we wont face similar faith to the assyriacs(Simmele,seyfo),rom and pontic greek,yazidis,armenians... saying we "lost our arab heritage" when huge portion of us(including my family) didnt come from arab speaking countries or areas(assyriac/kurdistan,iran,central asia,caucasus,turkey,india diasporas).we assyriacs jews,iraqi jews and irani jews all maintained very close connections as jews regardless of the common language where we lived. not every middle eastern person is arab. finally saying "israel started receiving aid from the us" right after 1948 is not true. till 1967 we got donations from american jews and in many cases america had weapons embargo on us. no major american governmental aid till the cold war spike in the 1960s.

@@user-we4ih1tp7n Well that is an interesting argument but non-then-less I feel like arguments from the like likes of yours and ones similar to Palestinian supporters (who both of the latter provide non bias arguments, which I know is impossible with the current state of politics- ah who am I kidding politics been like this for centuries) can give out a more fleshed out views of both Israeli and Palestinian views to help maybe build up on the reasons why there is so much hate between the groups and know what kind of solution can be made to mediate each others problems while also respecting each other, which again it’s pretty impossible with the hate being reignited since Oct 7th and if the war were to end (in any way or shape of form, that’s up to your imagination for the outcome) there’ll be more hate and more bias and lies from both sides. So I appreciate the argument you have and maybe if everyone were to listen to others to prevent more of these biases from happening.

Could you be more specific about what you’re talking about?

Some of the "facts" on this video were wrong, for example that Israel led by European Jews convinced Jews from Arab countries to join, when the actual truth is that Arab countries kicked out and hurt their Jews. Also he is adding his own thoughts about Israelis destroying Gaza for example for "living space" (which is a reference for Nazi terminology). Have you looked at Gaza in Google maps? It's tiny. We don't care about it and as he said correctly, religiously and spiritually we don't care too much about this area. he is bias and not really hiding it too much.. you can talk about the tragedy of the people of Gaza how much you want, but the truth needs to be said- they are extreme Islamic jihadist population who teaches their children from day 1 that they should become a terrorist and anyone, especially a Jew, who don't follow Islam should die. They are Nazis and I'm talking about actual nazi books translated into Arabic found in Gaza at large numbers, this is an evil society and no nation would just live with that situation after that massacre they did to us and after all those years of terror attacks, there is simply no one sane leader we can make peace with unfortunately.​@@Pangloss6413

So if USA removed its financial support tomorrow, Israel would be fine?

​@@JohnDRuddyMannyMan If the US just decided to take a hands-off approach to Israel, then sure, Israel would be fine. US support for Israel were not really significant, until after the Six Day War Israel is much stronger than it was founded, and has one of the world's best domestic arms industries in the world. They are second Biggest Arms supplier of India and Vietnam. Most of the US' foreign aid to Israel is 3.8 billions military aid, which is like 16% of the aid, and Israel's defence industry already exports hundreds of millions of dollars worth of arms every year. They don't rely on foreign military aid to defend themselves. As the matter of fact, without aid, Israel's military industry might be forced to grow, which benefits their home industry in long term, but bad for US arms industry Also US "aid" to Israel isn't even all that high in comparison to what the USA spends on its other allies. The USA spends 10s of billions on putting a military presence in it's foreign allies. The main difference with Israel is that Israel is risking its own troops. The USA spends far more on their presence in South Korea, Japan, Turkey, Germany, Iraq, etc... no one mentions that. The Israeli Military Industry is also part of the reason that even if the US stops actively supporting Israel, they probably won't actually turn against Israel. If Israel were backed into the corner and the US started being an enemy, instead of an ally, the Israelis develop some of the world's most advanced military technology, and could use that as leverage to get a different foreign backer. Russia is active in the Middle East, and would kill to get their hands on Israeli military tech. China would be another option, although, given the neighbourhood, India would be an interesting option. If Russia or China or India collaborated with Israel, things would actually look bad for the United States. Also, US aid is not exactly a 1 way street. US benefit a lot by funding Israeli military. It can access to Israel's military technology and prohibit them from selling those to American opponents (like China). In general, Israel has benefitted from US assistance for a long time, but they don't need that aid to survive. Many Arabs thought they could wipe out Israel in the cradle in 1948, but they failed. If Israel could survive back then with US arms embargo (yes, US embargoed selling weapons to both sides of the conflict), it could totally survive nowadays.

If you knew history, you wouldn’t say what you just said. When the collective West refused to take in Jewish refugees during world war 2, it was the Islamic world that gave the Je..ws refuge , especially Turkey and Palestine. When Christian Europe kicked the Jews out of Spain in the 15th century, the Muslims gave refuge to the Jews, in Morroco, Palestine, Iraq, all over the Islamic world. don’t take my word for it , look it up! Antisemitism historically was never a problem of the Islamic world where Jews lived peacefully. Let’s look at 2 Jewish sources on this , 1: Let’s see what a Jewish Historian says about this, «Jews under medieval Islam never suffered from the same general negative perception as in the Christian West. Despite regional variations and high medieval political instability, in medieval Islam multicultural environments, combined with active engagement in sciences and literature, led to something of an Islamic golden age for the Jews, at least according to most historical accounts. It has been primarily in the context of recent political developments that the once assumed positive views of Jewish life under medieval Islam have been seriously questioned.» Source : Dean Phillip Bell, Jews in the Early Modern World. New York, 2008, p. 25. 2: the Jewish magazine, the Jewish chronicles say the following: «Islam saved Jewry. This is an unpopular, discomforting claim in the modern world.

Almost all the Jews in the world were now ruled by Islam. This new situation transformed Jewish existence. Their fortunes changed in legal, demographic, social, religious, political, geographical, economic, linguistic and cultural terms - all for the better…»

Who resettled Jews in Palestine after their long exile since Roman times ? The Muslims did ! Go look this up! The second Khalif of Islam Umaar Ibn Al-Khattab resettled Jews back in Palestine in the 7th century. Umaar brought Jews from Medina, and resettled them in Jerusalem. The Jews had been kicked out by the Romans. Those Jews have nothing to do with the modern Jews of Poland , Hungary and Russia who are not from the Middle East, they’re Europeans.

No they werent, actual historians and actual jews who still live in muslim countries such as in yemen, iraq, syria, Lebanon and morocco would suggest otherwise

Israeli Historians like Avi Shlaim , himself a middle eastern jew has documented the history of middle Eastern Jews and the assertions in your comment are not historically accurate ! About middle Eastern Jews : «Invention of the Mizrahim: Israel invented the word Mizrahim to strip Arab Jews of their histories as they tried to do with Palestinians. The State of Israel was conceived at the turn of the 20th century in Eastern Europe by a group of elite European Jews who launched a movement called Zionism that sought to establish a physical nation state exclusive to Jews. It was a typical settler colonial enterprise, complete with the narrative of a divine mandate and a non-existent or savage indigenous population, central to which was the myth that Jews of the world formed a singular people, favored by God, who were returning to their singular place of origin - Palestine - after a three thousand year absence. Although it was a project conceived in Europe by Europeans and for European Jews, they lacked sufficient numbers to build a population large enough to conquer the indigenous Palestinian population. Thus, recruitment of Jews from the surrounding Arab world was a necessary inconvenience. They did so through propaganda and by creating false flag terror incidents (bombing of synagogues or Jewish centres) in order provoke an exodus of Arab Jews. A prime example of this happened in Iraq, where the oldest Jewish community in the world had lived for millennia as contributing members of Iraqi society, and who prospered, contributed to the arts and the economy, and participated in government. But these Jews were not embraced as brethren by European Zionists. Zionism was decidedly colonial, and that meant that Jews of the Arab world were seen as incomplete, barbaric, dirty, uncivilised. Za’ev Jabotinsky, one of the forefathers of Zionism said, “We Jews have nothing in common with what is called the Orient, thank God. To the extent that our uneducated masses [Arab Jews] have ancient spiritual traditions and laws that call the Orient, they must be weaned away from them, and this is in fact what we are doing in every decent school, what life itself is doing with great success. We are going in Palestine, first for our national convenience, [second] to sweep out thoroughly all traces of the Oriental soul.” A multitude of programs and protocols were implemented towards this goal. One of the most egregious was a large initiative of stealing the babies of Arab Jews and giving them to be raised by European Jews. But the larger efforts were simple propaganda campaigns that were implemented in schools, communities, and national projects. In essence, it was a project to strip ancient peoples of their identities, which was not unlike what they tried to do to Palestinians. Zionists were trying to create a new nation with a unified people. So, they could not abide allowing parts of this population to continue to identify as Iraqi, Moroccan, Persian, Tunisian, and so on, and certainly not as Arab Jews. At the same time, the racist impulses of colonialism could not abide putting these people on par with Jews of Europe. They could not simply be Jews in the new Jewish state. Thus, the word Mizrahim, from the Hebrew and Arabic words meaning “those of the East,” was popularised to lump all of these peoples of different nations into a single miscellaneous category that erased their individual ancient histories and cultures that spanned thousands of years of life and tradition, replete with countless and invaluable achievements in their respective nations. Before Israel, Jews of Iraq identified as Iraqi, of Morocco as Moroccan, of Tunisia as Tunisian, of Iran as Persian, of Syria as Syrian, of Egypt as Egyptian, and of Palestine as Palestinian. They spoke Arabic, ate the same foods as their Christian and Muslim compatriots, celebrated and partook in the same national events and traditions, lived by the same social protocols, and moved through their respective cultures as other natives did. And despite the similarities of their cultures, Tunisians were distinct from Egyptians, who were both distinct from Iraqis, who were distinct from Moroccans, etc. But Israel collapsed them all under a single identity, which was to be distinguished only from Ashkenazis, European Jews, who were higher up on the social order, and, of course, from non-Jewish Palestinians and Arabs, who were to be despised. The level of their resulting self-hate can be measured in the heightened cruelty they practise against Palestinians. However, as Zionists would learn from Palestinians, erasing the identity of others is not an easy task. Memory is stubborn, and roots will continue to tug at humans long after they’ve been uprooted. Arab Jews continued to speak Arabic at home, to dance to Arabic music, eat Arab food, and dream of once again seeing the mountains, rivers, architecture, libraries, and colours of Persia, Babylon, North Africa and the Levant. Israel has moved away slightly from early Zionism’s contempt for our part of the world. And while it remains a colonial project, bent on erasing the native Palestinian presence, their social efforts are more focused on “indigenising” themselves to the land. The obstinacy of Arab Jews in clinging to their cultural roots has provided a convenient avenue to lay claim to regional indigenous culture. So now, Arab foods (like falafel, hummus, shakshouka), traditional Arab clothing (like tatreez, galabiyas, keffiyehs), and Arab folkloric dances are all being rebranded as “Israeli,” yet another phase of colonial renaming, and they use the rebranded Arab Jews to justify their claim.» An article by Susan Abulhawa

Another thing to mention is the Jewish state, as laid out by the 1947 UN partition plan, would have been only 55% Jewish, whereas the Arab state would have been 99% Arab.

I hope you don't mind, but I formatted your wall-of-text into something a little easier to read. I only added line breaks and leading spaces. The text is otherwise untouched. " At 18:22 he says that the Balfour declaration recognized a future Jewish home on Arab land. When did it become “Arab” land?? It might be properly referred to as Ottoman land, but not Arab. To call it Arab is setting up a false narrative that pervades the rest of the video. What is worse is at 20:39, the word Palestinian is used to describe the Muslim anti-Zionist population. This is highly misleading and historically inaccurate. All the people who lived in “Palestine” were Palestinian. This included Christian Palestinians, Jewish Palestinians and Muslim Palestinians. The use of the term “Palestinian” to refer only to the Muslim Palestinians was a new term coined by Yassir Arafat. It has a deeply political appeal because it allowed the Palestinian Muslims to label themselves with the land at the exclusion of the Jewish Palestinians and the Christian Palestinians. Golda Meir, an early Prine Minister of Israel, called herself a Palestinian Jew. This commandeering of the word “Palestinian” was a trick of the tongue and one this presenter uses for the rest of the film to further a misleading narrative. It right away sows the seed that the “Palestinians” from which the Jews were unilaterally excluded, are associated with the land and the Jews are not. Labels matter. “Pro Life” Americans could just as easily be called “anti-Abortion rights” but they developed and use the term “pro life” to frame the narrative. Those who co-opted the term “Palestinian” did so for their own political purposes. A true historian might still use the term “Palestinian (since that term has been so successfully tied yo only the Muslim Palestinians) but must explain the use of the term and its qualifications. Failing to do this makes the reporter complicit in excluding the Jews, an intentional or unintentional act that is, at the very least, negligent. He then commits a heinous act by, at 23:42, including the deaths of Soviet Civilians and other collateral casualties of war as “Holocaust Victims.” No. These were victims of war, not the Holocaust. In no legitimate historical text, do we see civilian deaths in WWII listed as Holocaust victims. That “distinction” is reserved for the Jews, Gypsies and others who were persecuted on the basis of their identity. Other deaths of civilians are casualties of war. This also is no mistake by the author. This is precisely what antisemites do when they try to dilute the Jewish nature of the Holocaust. At 25:23, he explains that the UN proposed a partition plan but “none of this was implemented as it sparked a civil war between the Jews and Arabs….” Oh geez! It was never implemented because it was flatly rejected by the Palestinian Muslims. I guess he forgot to mention that. He then points out that the fighting happened “as the 2/3 majority Arabs would be getting less than half of the land.” Kind of true but misleading. Most of the land allocated to the Jews was the unpopulated, arid Sinai desert which had been left unpopulated and was deemed not arable by the Muslims. He soon goes on to state that the Arab states invaded Israel but what pushed the Arabs out was an Israeli victory. This is false. What pushed many Arabs out was the war started by the invasion. In fact, there exist today the news accounts from the invading Arab states whose leaders urged the Muslims to pack up and get out in advance of the invasion and that they will soon be able to return after the Jews are defeated. The historical inaccuracies are manifest throughout this video. I stopped watching at 25:44. "

"It is utterly impossible to obtain the voluntary consent of the Palestine Arabs for converting Palestine from an Arab country into a country with a Jewish majority. My readers have a general idea of the history of colonisation in other countries. I suggest they consider all the precedents with which they are acquainted, and see whether there is one solitary instance of any colonisation being carried on with the consent of the native population. There is no such precedent. [...] This is equally true of the Arabs. They feel at least the same instinctive, jealous love of Palestine as the old Aztecs felt for ancient Mexico, and the Sioux for their rolling prairies. [...] Every native population in the world resists colonists as long as it has the slightest hope of being able to rid itself of the danger of being colonised. That is what the Arabs of Palestine are doing, and what they will persist in doing as long as there remains a solitary spark of hope that they will be able to prevent the transformation of Palestine the Land of Israel." -[12] The Iron Wall, Vladimir Jabotinsky (leader of Zionism)

@@tomgachagan1347 sorry but you're misinformed. The UN proposal for the foundation of the state of Israel did not call for the displacement of the Arabs living in mandatory Palestine nor did the Israeli Declaration of Independence, such guarantees are included in the declaration itself: " we call upon the Arab inhabitants of the State of Israel to return to the ways of peace and play their part in the development of the State, with full and equal citizenship and due representation in its bodies and institution" - from the Israeli declaration of independence written in 1948 by David Ben Gurion. Also, the land marked for a Jewish state in the partition plan consisted mostly of the Negev desert, which was largely uninhabited and unirrigated contrary to your aspersion of the lands being "rich and fertile", the Arab land contained all of the larger urban areas of the land as well as extensive arrable land. hope this helps

Fair enough, it was an oversimplification

But invasion was still probably not the best option. The U.S invasion of Afghanistan was under similar pretenses, but it still led to widespread chaos and civilian death.

​@@JohnDRuddyMannyMan But you were incredibly biased and misleading in this especially after the 1900's. Those Jews across the Muslim world did not go to Israel because they were encouraged to by Israel, they were persecuted and kicked out. Plus you only ever paint the Palestinian side as the victims when they also committed their fair share of violence. The un plan was not put into work because it was rejected by the Palestinians because they wanted the whole area and for Israel not to exist. Also the use of the term Palestinian for the Muslims only was adopted in 1967. Also during that invasion Jews who had been living in the west bank and Gaza were kicked out by the Jordanian invading force. As for apartheid if they want their own state then Palestinians would not have full rights as those who are native to israel like how I cannot vote in French elections that is how boards and countries work. Also 20% of Israel are Arab Muslims who are also a part of the IDF and have many high ranking positions in the judiciary system, army and government, as for South Africa there is still apartheid and targeted genocide against white farmers now even propagated by politicians there. Hamas are the ones taking all the money and food and starving there people because they want to win over the people online through propaganda, I still believe that children of year 7 and under should have been and still should be evacuated but the education system there is like the Hitler youth. Also many deaths are unintended casualties, the IDF do not maliciously target aid workers or most journalists (some journalists were in kahoots with hamas). Overall it seems like you think Israel should not exist. There will only be peace when Hamas is gone, a proper government that will recognise israel as a country is put in place and Gaza rebuilt by Israel.

Ok but that’s literally the definition of colonial state. It was colonized…. I understand from your perspective arguing that to be a good thing, but to argue against actual reality seems a bit silly.

@@grayishcolors good or not good. muslims(And few non muslims) from all over the ottoman empire moved here, not all were even arabs....circassians of kafr kama and rihania,bosniaks of keisaria,turkmen of abu zurayk and hirbat turkmen,afro arabs from sudan,egyptians from masrawa(biggest muslim clan in israel) and al masri clans,north africans in kafr sabt,bedouins speaking hijazi arabic to this day...they didnt pay anything,just took the land by force or were given it by the ottomans for their services.all while jews were held as dhimmis and barred from moving to their ancestors lands. how does jews purchasing land from the registered owners(in the ottoman land registry which continued into british era) is more of colonialism or less moral? now a jew buying land in the middle east is "colonialism"?

@@grayishcolors no, that is the definition of a refuge: _a condition of being safe or sheltered from pursuit, danger, or trouble._ The Google definition to colonies is: _a country or area under the full or partial political control of another country, typically a distant one, and occupied by settlers from that country._ however the difference here being that Israel is its own country not governed by a foreign rule. (Unless you count US interventionalism and then you might as well count the rest of the world including Europe as colonies.) that also brings into question plenty of Arabs of originated from other countries and migrated to mandatory Palestine.(Not that there is anything wrong with that, but most Muslims living in the North are more culturally aligned with Syria, Muslims within Gaza are more culturally aligned with Egypt, and Muslims living in the West Bank or Judea and Samaria as some prefer had Jordanian citizenship before the agreements between the PLO and Israel, after which they had those revoked) And of course finally most Jews would argue the entirety of their culture was born and based around the country, if we skim over the Bible we know of the early existence of at the very least two Jewish kingdoms in the area, not to mention DNA tests also confirm a middle eastern origin in Jewish DNA. Personally I don't much care for the last explanation, I just want to live in a country where my well-being and the well-being of my family are truly guaranteed to be protected and not persecuted by the government. And the rest of the world hadn't really given me a true guarantee.

But suggesting all Arabs are just the exact same is disingenuous in itself. That’d be like kicking Polish people off their land and saying “yea, sure you can go to Russia or Ukraine or somewhere! You’re all Slavs!”

Thank you for providing a great example of national uniqueness. As someone who is half Russian (Slavic) and half Jewish (Semitic), I am neither Polish nor Arab. However, due to my love of history, I can name many events that happened to the Polish people since medieval times. Unfortunately, it is impossible to identify any historical events specific to the modern Palestinians (not Arabs) before the partition plan was discussed. Perhaps I am wrong, and you can easily provide at least one historical event unique to the Palestinian arabs who lived within the current borders of Palestinian land that distinguished them from their neighbors, such as those in present-day Jordan? My advice for you is to start creating a video on this issue. Conduct your own research, and you will see by yourself that there wasn't any ethnic difference among Middle Eastern Arabs.

and they say real estate is easy

It doesnt have to be this way. If Palestinians hadnt taken on h!tler’s dreams everyone can live on the land together. The palestinians despise the jews and only want them in tiny numbers to more easily control them and to not worry about any uprisings from an oppressed dhimmi group. Its pure racism on the palestinian’s part. Jews have lived in many lands only for their oppressors to mistreat them and to make up excuses like eating baby blood or being r@pists. Horrible blood libels. And palestinians still spew these lies to this day with the intent of wanting to dehumanize and genoc!de the jews as h!tler had wanted to do. They are impossible to live with, and they should fully know why the jews want to live there and that jews are ultimately the aboriginal people. Its absolutely abhorrent.

15:58 That is messed up; former black slaves from America enslaving black tribes in Liberia.🤦‍♂️

I find it alarming when people will argue over semantics and technicalities while a genocide is going on.

@JohnDRuddyMannyMan technicalities and semantics are all that matters when recounting history. History is not how you feel or what your opinion is. It is meant to be an unbiased and neutral telling of the facts. And it is very telling that you, as a self-proclaimed historian, are using the term genocide for the current conflict, when the definition of genocide simply does not line up with Israeli actions in Gaza. If you want to be a political commentator, at least be honest with what you are doing, don't present yourself as a historian.

Although UN resolutions are not laws, they hold immense diplomatic and moral authority. So even though one could definitely reject the UN’s statements, it comes at the cost of being alienated and also causing a delegitimization of International Cooperation. On Uti Possidetis Juris. The principle does indeed support the preservation of existing territorial boundaries upon state succession. However, the application of this principle to the specific case of Jerusalem's status and Israel's borders is complex and subject to interpretation, with many in the international community not recognizing that status for Jerusalem and also the reason why many in the international community do not recognize Israeli claims that the entirety of the lands of the former Mandate of Palestine belongs to them. However, this is subject to anyone’s specific interpretation of international law and also where they politically lean. The PLO did say they didn’t have any regional sovereignty over Gaza and West Bank as of 1964, that is true. However, this is because of the current political reality and historical context of the time which was, as you’ve shown in the quote, that the West Bank and Gaza were under the administration and control of Jordan and Egypt respectively. This is did not mean that the PLO relinquished the rest of its claim to the lands of the Mandate of Palestine under Israel. The possible historical reason for this is that the PLO didn’t want to alienate itself from its Arab allies (and perhaps wanted to conjoin its movement with the broader Arab Nationalist movement) and also wanted to be able to achieve a sovereign state within internationally recognized borders. Then, finally to note is that the PLO's stance evolved over time, particularly after the 1967 Six-Day War when Israel gained control of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Subsequent to this conflict, the PLO expanded its territorial claims to encompass these territories and asserted its sovereignty over them in pursuit of Palestinian statehood.

Even if it wasn’t technically illegal, it’s still definitely not a good action. Not every legal action is moral, and not every illegal action is immoral. You’re confusing legality with morality here.

​@@fives5555arcLook up Dr. Jacques Gauthier who wrote his doctorate on the status of Jerusalem. There are several videos and articles on him and his work. Please search, *_"Whose Land?"_*_ by UKLFI Charitable Trust_

Opposite Israel started all of the wars 1948 war was started by Israel committing the nakba 1967 War was started by Israel attacking Egyptian air force 1973 War was started by Israel occupying what was internationally recognized Egyptian and Syrian territory 1983 Lebanon war was invasion 2006 Lebanon war was an invasion

@@striker7625 where’s your evidence?

@@michaellynes3540 which of these event you want me to provide evidence for exactly ?? They are all globally accepted facts

@@striker7625 1948 Arab Israeli War happened because of the Arab Leaders not Israel 1967 War the immediate trigger was Egypt’s mobilization of forces in the Sinai, closure of the Gulf of Aqaba to Israeli shipping, and Jordan’s alliance with Egypt and Palestinian querrila groups in other countries increaed attacks on Israel. 1973 War The war aimed to persuade Israel to negotiate more favorable terms for the Arab countries and Israel said they would give the Golen Height for peace but Syria refused. 1983 War was not carried by Israel but by Ismaic Jihadist organization with PLO withdrawal after the war 2006 War was by Hezbollah after israel withdraw in 2000

Question where does it end? When you say Israel will finish it what does that mean.

and yet it still misses alot of important things, but it's pretty good compared to all the other videos which all suck (from both sides) as they are so empty or so biased it feels like ur watching propaganda (because you are)

Can the Ship of Theseus still be called such if it has slowly but surely been replaced by a pair of jeans? Seriously though, I agree with you :/

Did you watch the video…?

So if the Jews took a chunk of a European country can we still defend them? Also was America anti-semetic, if not why didn’t they take them in.

Past persecution doesn’t mean you get to walk into someone else’s home, rape their wife and murder them and then live in their house. Before the founding of Israel, Jews came peacefully for the most part, buying land. Then the colonial powers created Israel, giving them tons of land that already had Arabs living on it, so the Israelis raped and pillaged until they had successfully forced most of the Arabs out of their homes.

Also because it’s kinda where the Jews come from. It’s said in the video about the kingdom of Judea or the king of Jews. About 3000-4000 years ago. And they’ve been living their ALONGSIDE the Palestinians for thousands of years continuously.

Palestinians shouldn't pay for 2000 years of European anti-semitism.

This video is quite heavily biased in favor of the Palestinians. It’s a shame, since he’s usually pretty good at explaining history.

@@capncake8837 Yeah i figured, i mean im neutral in this conflict because there is no real winner here. Even if you are agianst how Isreal have fared their war in Gaza you should still provide valid facts and history and still try to find a solution for a better future. Theese people saying isreal should be ereased just create more conflict...
