- Israeli Palestinian conflict explained: an animated introduction Israel and Palestine
Easy to understand, historically accurate JewishVoiceforPeace.org/ mini- primer about why Israelis and Palestinians are fighting, why the US-backed peace process has been an impediment to peace, and what you can do to make a difference. This conflict is essentially about land and human rights, not religion and culture. Endorsed by Palestinian, Israeli and American scholars and peace activists.
Jewish Voice for Peace opposes anti-Jewish, anti-Muslim, and anti-Arab bigotry and oppression. JVP seeks an end to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem; security and self-determination for Israelis and Palestinians; a just solution for Palestinian refugees based on principles established in international law; an end to violence against civilians; and peace and justice for all peoples of the Middle East. Current mission statement adopted in 2009.
Jewish Voice for Peace is a diverse and democratic community of activists inspired by Jewish tradition to work together for peace, social justice, and human rights. We support the aspirations of Israelis and Palestinians for security and self-determination.
We seek:
A U.S. foreign policy based on promoting peace, democracy, human rights, and respect for international law.
An end to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem.
A resolution of the Palestinian refugee problem consistent with international law and equity.
An end to all violence against civilians.
Peace among the peoples of the Middle East.
We are among the many American Jews who say to the U.S. and Israeli governments: “Not in our names!”
JVP supports peace activists in Palestine and Israel, and works in broad coalition with other Jewish, Arab-American, faith-based, peace and social justice organizations.
Jewish Voice for Peace calls for a U.S. foreign policy that promotes democracy and human rights. The United States must stop supporting repressive policies in Israel and elsewhere. U.S. military aid to countries in the Middle East must be based on rigorous enforcement of the Arms Export Control and Foreign Assistance Acts, which mandate that military aid may be used for only defensive purposes within the recipient country’s borders, and that aid may not be delivered to countries that abuse human rights.
Under these guidelines, U.S. military aid to Israel must be suspended until the occupation ends, since the occupation itself is in violation of these guidelines. Military aid allows Israel to avoid making serious efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as well as conflicts with its other neighbors. It enables the occupation, contributes to the devastation of Palestinian society and fosters the increasing militarization of Israeli society.
JVP also calls for suspension of military aid to other human rights abusers and occupiers in the Middle East. This aid helps prop up autocratic and repressive regimes, promotes violations of human rights and international law, obstructs democratic movements, prolongs the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and fosters militarism and violence at home and abroad.

Thank you "Jewish Voice for Peace" for speaking out the truth. We hope that the next generation of Palestinians and Jewish have a chance to live a life better than their ancestors.
I believe we should call for a referendum.
The most rightful thing is a referendum made by true original land owners (Palestineans, including native Palestinean jews) and they decide the state they want.
Simple. Very simple.
It's not a thousands of years matter.
Otherwise, the immigrants who stole the land should go back to where they came from.
Just dropping a thanks again for this video, now a decade old. Every time there's a flare-up (understatement) in the region I run across well-intentioned people seeking clarification, so it remains one of my go-to's to help them understand. Thanks always JVP for your work and commitment to advocating for peace in the Middle East.

Israel is going to stay strong. Europe will use its security to save itself. They will continue to "love" Jews, hate Israel but in secret depend on their know how. So Stop with the bullshit. Whatever Israel ahs odne the other middle eastern countries are better? Syria? Saudi Arabia? Even Turkey is a dictatorship nowadays. Whatever you say, the world never cared about morals, countries care about their owjn interest. and capable intelligent israelis who have impact on security technology and IT who are willing to coorperate will not be deminished.. especially in a time where people make terror all over the world. All your stuff about this country being destroyed is nothing more but a mere dream sorry man. I am not even Zionist but a realist.
By the way Einstein was a Jewish Zionist, who donated all his works to the library in Jerusalem - Sidenote about your stupidity.

that video gives me goosebumps .... and treas in eyes
People say the Israeli-Palestinian struggle is too complex to take a position. It isn't. It's actually rather simple. This easy and accesible video gives me hope, coming from a Jewish peace group.
but it is based on a lie. The Arabs immigrated to the land of Israel ain the late Ottoman Empire and British Mandate period. In 1919 they chanted "From turkey to Gaza Palestine does not exist" and petitioned that the currency would have in Arabic "Southern Syria" as it had "Land of Israel" in Hebrew. The whole "Palestinians" identity or history is a farce.
Hmmmmm i wonder why the video preview doesn't come out when you copy and paste this link on FB
Most Jews and Arabs look suspiciously alike.
Stop the hate
I've been researching a bit on this very same observation. It turns out that Ashkenazi Jews have 4 close DNA relatives: Italians, Palestinians, Lebanese and Syrians. Italians makes sense due to occupation of the Romans. The rest of it, it seems, supports the fact that - yes - we're cousins.
Even after watching this I still don't get what's going on over there.
One side wants the other side gone and the Palestinians will not compromise at all costs and the Jews have no were else to go.
It's very easy to explain but dam hard to solve.

In fact, better still, go and visit one of these countries. When (or if) you return let me know how it was. Oh yes, before you go, take into account the long queues at the airports' security checks. Are they because of Israels constant hijacking and exploding of passenger planees? Do enlighten us.

i totally agree with this introduction,it's good to hear a reasonable Jewish voice...well done
It's not responsible Jewish voice. These are Jewish who hate other Jews and Israel. They are not responsible at all...
HA
Sure you agree! It’s full of lies! Israeli Arabs aren’t second class citizens ! Go to Israel and see for yourself ! Lies and more lies!
I love jewish voice for peace. It restores my hope in humanity. I teared up watching the video. I could feel it in my heart that peace CAN happen. Jews are our brothers. We shouldn't be fighting. We should be making hummus. Together. ❤️
A small inaccuracy - palestinians in the newly formed country (in 1948 borders) were granted full citizenship and full rights.
aming many, many other "small" inaccuracies!
That isn’t small.
it also fails to mention that the settlements are illegal.
i also think saying it harms both palestinians AND israel’s is a bit of a stretch… Israeli’s are benefiting and palestinians suffer in all aspects of life!
inaccuracy ? this would only be relevant if the indigenous people had accepted those borders in the first place… but as stated in the video, they rejected the UN Partition Plan (0:50)… « we will recognize your full rights only if you accept that we dispossess you of most of your land » is not quite a fair deal, is it ? no self-respecting people would have agreed to such a biased and manipulative proposal…
U. S "peace" talks,, what usually happens,,it's about $$ and Power,, Not "Peace"
Hello Jewish Voice for Peace. I'm would like to translate this video into Polish, and I was wondering if there is a transcription somewhere of this video - or should i start from scratch. Please advise.
Israel & Palestine: A Very Short Introduction
What would happen if you built a refuge for a persecuted people in a place where another people already lived? In the next few minutes you'll learn why this moral (quandry?) is at the root of the struggle between Israelis and Palestinians.
And what you can do to help achieve a just peace for everyone in the region. First, there are a couple of things it's helpful to understand:
one: Many Jews fled harsh persecution in anti-Semitic Europe, especially the Nazi Holocaust. Zionists encouraged massive immigration to historic Palestine, at that time a British colony, where Jews had an age-old connection, and where small Jewish communities had long existed among larger groups of indigenous peoples.
But when the UN offered the Jewish immigrants the majority of a land for a new state called 'Israel', for the indigenous Palestinians who lived there it was a massive destruction of life.
They rejected the UNs partition plan and several Arab states invaded the new state of Israel. Israeli forces (essentially?) erased over 400 Palestinian villages and towns. By the end of the fighting, Israel controlled 78% of historic Palestine, and with 3/4 of a million, Palestinians who fled or were expelled,during fighting tried to return to their homes where the new state now stood, they were permanently barred by the Israeli government. While over a hundred thousand of their relatives and neighbours who haven't left became second class citizens of the new state along with new Jewish majority.
Today Palestinians refugees and their descendants number in the millions most are in the Gaza strip, the West Bank and Jordan. Many are spread throughout the world with millions still living in refugee camps, seeking to return to their homeland. To sum up, one group of refugees found a much needed home, but in the process, a new group of refugees was created.
Here's the second thing to understand, Israel was founded as a Jewish state, but now ask yourself, what exactly does that mean?
People have lots of ideas about what a Jewish state should look like. Some called for equality for all citizens, but what was created, in practice, was institutional discrimination against non-Jews. In other words, Israel ended up being built on a blue print of exclusion.
The Israeli government wants maximum land and resources: for Jews, but not the Palestinians living there. That's why, inside Israel, Jews get special privileges including rights to land and housing that are denied to the Palestinians citizens who make up 20% of Israel's population. That's also part of why Israel has never defined it's borders, In fact, they still hold onto land, the West Bank and Gaza, that they conquered in the war in 1967.
Since then, Israel has built Jewish settlements throughout (the/of) occupied West Bank building Jewish-only cities and supplying them with infrastructure like; roads and army camps, schools and even a college.
Military occupations are meant to be temporary but after 40+ years, this one looks permanent; and entirely unjust. In the West Bank, Israeli Jewish settlers and Palestinians live on the same land, but must live under 2 completely separate and unequal systems of Israeli law.
The Jewish settlers dominate the natural resources, including; water and agricultural land and they're backed by the Israeli army. To maintain the occupation, Israel has demolished thousands of Palestinian homes and orchards, confiscated Palestinians land, (farmed??????) captive civilian population in Gaza, and punished resistance with; raids, arrests and assassinations, all to gain maximum land while making life so difficult for Palestinians, that they will either leave, or be too afraid to resist.
Palestinians have fought back. For decades, they tried to achieve national liberation through armed struggle (some groups still do). But, the majority now support popular protest instead.
The deeply harmful pattern of control, repression and violence profoundly harms Palestinians living under occupation and Israelis living as occupiers. This must be broken to reach a peaceful and secure future for both peoples.
Now that you understand the problem, what about the solution? what about peace talks? So far, over 2 decades of US-backed peace talks have actually made things worse! (By helping Israel continue the occupation). It's been years of talking while Israel massively expanded the Jewish settlements and literally re-drew the map.
Peace talks are good, if they're real, but not when they're theatre to cover a land-grab. So now what? The current world super power, The United States, has been a terrible friend enabling Israel's destructive and self-destructive expansion onto Palestinian land by funding the Israeli military (the biggest recipient of US foreign aid in the world). But, there's another superpower that can make the difference: You.
There's a movement with hundreds of thousands of people just like you across the world including; Palestinians and Israelis protesting, educating, divesting and boycotting, all to bring non-violent international pressure on Israel to stop violating human rights of Palestinians.
Throughout history, where governments have failed to push for justice, people just like you, like us, have taken the lead and won. Now it's the Palestinians turn for freedom and justice. We can pressure Israel to end the occupation and the discrimination. We want all people, Jews and Palestinians, to have equality, human rights and democracy. We can change history. Join us.

@@Mahrahussain You express the real conflict, you don't want to make peace with Israel, you want to get rid of it. I respect that, but let's be honest about it.
This is the first I've heard of the group "Jewish Voice for Peace" on Democracy Now... instantly, I dropped everything to go on UA-cam to search for the group and here I am. :) I am soooo proud you guys. Keep up with the outstanding work and let's strive for justice and peace for all.
Is a united secular state too much to ask for? Nobody wants to force the jews to leave, nobody wants a muslim supremacy (Hamas gains support because it contrasts itself with the corrupt PLO, and since military resistance is popular, their support soars during times of conflict). Is it too much to ask for a democratic state that won't see a difference between a jew and an arab? As a socialist, I wish to unite both people and shift the struggle from an ethnic/religious conflict to a class conflict, not jews vs arabs, but workers vs the bourgeoisie. It would be a joyous day when the working classes of both nations throw out their shackles to cooperate and found a just socialist society.
No its actually a bad idea and a 2 state solution actually will work I do have proof of how many Palestinians want the 2 state solution
Yes
can anyone provide the words said in here , i need them for a school report
Still good video! Wish everyone would watch
Thank you Jewish Voice for Peace for this short introduction
Sweet. That’s for sharing!
If we don’t envision peace, we’ll never get there.
This video is very helpful for an easy introduction, but how could you not mention the Nakba? You say how they destroyed hundreds of Palestinian towns but not the thousands of people they massacred in the process? It wasn't just "fighting" as you say, it was an act of ethnic cleansing. And it is still ongoing. I highly recommend 1948: Creation and Catastrophe in which the settlers themselves describe what they did, alongside Palestinians and scholars on the subject. Other than that, I love JVP's work :)
The animated introduction omits one very important fact:
Between passage of the UN Partition Plan on Nov. 29/47 and the declaration of the state of Israel on 15 May 1948, Jewish forces had already dispossessed and expelled over 400,000 Palestinians, e.g., 60,000 from Haifa in late April '48; 75,000 from Jaffa in late April and early May and 60,000 from West Jerusalem in March and early May '48. Although reluctant to do so, accelerating expulsion of Palestinians forced outnumbered/outgunned Arab state armies to intervene in Palestine on April 15.
This is bullshit. Before the war, they bought all that land legally
This is bullshit. Before the war, they bought all that land legally
That's right. Tiny Israel, just attacks it's 5 neighbors. Outpopulated, outgunned, less tanks, a few planes knew that if it attacked, it would conquer all the Levant. That is how crazy you sound. You can't cancel history until all who lived it are dead.
huge respect for you bro!:)
Israel and Palestine should exist and live in peace with each other. Both the Jews and Arabs suffered a lot so that they both can have a nation to represent themselves. In addition, Israel should also recognize Palestine and Palestine should recognize Israel.

Right on JVP! Peace and equality.
wikipedia. On the night of 7/8 June 1940 a single French Navy Farman F.223 aircraft bombed Berlin, the first Allied attack on the capital. Despite the British attacks on German cities, the Luftwaffe did not begin to attack military and economic targets in the UK until six weeks after the campaign in France was concluded....
In World War II approximately 410,000 German civilians were killed by Allied air raids. From July 1944 to January 1945, an average of 13,536 people were killed every month. In Hamburg alone about 49,000 civilians were killed by Allied bombing, and in Berlin about 35,000
Some 30,000 tonnes of bombs were dropped overall

Thank you JPV!
Very powerful. Thank you!
Kindly add subtitles in various languages to this video. You can take help of the UA-cam community.
Are you aware of the fact that only in the case of the Palestinians the refugee status is inheritable? Only in Palestine, there were originally 650.000 refugees and now more than 6 millions...
All other peoples who became refugees in the history of the world took their destiny into their own hands and built new lives in their new place, including the Jewish people.
beautiful shot simple video ;)
Never again means never again for anyone!
Some facts in this video are wrong, and probably based on some kind of an attempt to look neutral.
For example, not many people lived in Israel. Jews who did live in Arab cities lived while hiding their identity as Jews, until more Jews returned to Israel (From mid East or Russia, not Europe) and they decided to regroup and re-settle away from those cities that were dense and poor.
The map showing in the beginning is very inaccurate, that it's purpose it to show how some nation randomly decided to steal land. To pull this kind of a genius trick, you have to be a mastermind surrounded by other masterminds. Before the world wars, Jews lived well in Europe as the loyal citizens of the countries they have been, they would fight for their countries.
Long story short: They had no reason to leave Europe. But they still did, and moved into the land of Zion (Zion = Jerusalem) joining their brothers who were lucky enough not to be exiled. This move started way before World War 2 or World War 1, and the prays for returned were prayed for over 2000 years ago, when the Jews lost their second temple.
To say there weren’t many people living in Israel already is ridiculous. There were literally 750000 refugees created in one year alone after the state of Israel was created, and millions more since then.
@@maeghalanka9020 and 850,000 Jewish refugees who were expelled from Arab lands in whch they had lived for millenia! "Millions more" because they were forced to remain as such, they an their descendants and ar the only refugees to remain refugees in the world!...even having a special arm of the UN set uo to "support" them! Israel's refugees were integrated nto the land immediately (and yes, there were problems- a whole other issue)
The video gets all cheerful and hopeful for peace at the end but this video was uploaded before the genocide of Gaza of 2014.....
11 years and nothing has changed, how sad
This video should have subtititles to other languages. I had a little bit of trouble fully undertanding each word but I used the captions and I finally got it.

Great crystal-clear short video. The raw reality.

I believe we should call for a referendum.

Otherwise, the immigrants who stole the land should go back to where they came from.
What's frustrating is that ignorant westerners don't realize the conflict in the Middle East is between two brothers, the Arabs/Muslims and Jews.
While Jews have a sliver of land, Arabs occupy all the rest of the Middle East. And the radical islamic ones are hellbent on Israel's annihilation, because as the only true democracy in the Middle East that values human rights and liberty, they stand in the way of radical Islam/sharia law ruling, which is why they call for global jihad to subjugate the whole world to their religion.
Allahu Akbar

It’s nice that you did a video to explain the conflict but I’m very disappointed at the lack of information that you are spreading here especially when you leave out very important information about the entire reason why all of this is happening
Good luck!
Very concise and sensible explanation!! I showed my son Alex this when he asked about all the unpleasant business on the news of late, and I was able to refer him to this. If only all matters were so easy to explain to your children, like procreation and the popularity of U2!! (DISCLAIMER: That was a joke. I, Tobias Henderson, mean no (NO) offense to the individual members of U2, who, as of December 5th, 2012, comprise: Paul "Bono" Hewson, David "Edge" Evans, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen, Jr.)
Yeah, did u notice it showed that the Palestinians have only desired peace talks while Israel spat at it's face?
There's no Palestinian State recognized by U.N. before European Jews moved to Israel. Jews and Palestinians live peacefully in Israel during the Ottoman Empire.
I was unable to like your video, so I'm telling you...I like your video. That was great explanation. Very accurate. Question, can you explain how they became refugees.

There are so many blatant lies in this video and lots of important information intentionally left out. You know the story of the younger sibling that constantly hits the older one? Eventually the older one has had enough and hits back. Then the younger one goes crying to his parents, lies and manipulates so that the older one will get into trouble. The younger one acts all innocent and all the blame is put on the older one. Palestinians are the younger sibling that provoke non stop and then manipulate the situation for world sympathy.
Peace talks are theater to cover up a land grant. Most powerful statement of the powerful video
Find it funny how they just calmly skipped over the 1948 War when Arab countries invaded Israel.
I believe that Israel should give back the land it took like it gave it back to Egypt. So I am not being biased, I am just against whitewash.
"peace talks are good if they're real, but not when they're teather to cover land grab" realest thing i've ever heard, THANK YOU JVP❤
i feel as if this information was heavily one sided against the jewish state. I may be wrong, but if all that they did was wrong, why do people still back them up? I think that the jewish state got their own story to tell.
u can watch videos that are more biased to the jew side and all they talk abt is how we choose war even tho it’s rightfully our land . and some of us are not allowed in it. idc what history says u cant just kick someone out of their country and try to deny their existence then blame them for fighting back and not allow them in their country
@@layanhassan8273 Hey Hassan, thanks for replying to a comment i made 5 years ago. I didn't even realize i made this comment!
2 things; Britain had control over Palestine after ww2 (or ww1, i cant remember). This means that what happened to Palestine was under direct command from Britain, and not some random tenant saying "ok it's time to kick you out now!".
Secondly: You claim to not care about the history yet you say it is rightfully your land. This comment alone makes no sense, as you being rightfully entitled to a land would have had roots in history. I just wanted to say that the rightful claim from either side (jews and palestinians) is rather disputed, as you can argue for both sides.
Lastly i want to agree on your statement that i could watch something that was more biased the other way around. You are absolutely correct with that statement and "me" 5 years ago should have known that.
Hope you find this informative.
@@krizz1423 Britain having control over Palestine does not change the fact that Jews illegally migrated to the land in large numbers seeking to establish their own state over an Arab majority land.
It’s not about who is more indigenous to the land, but more about Arabs being ethnically cleansed from their land by European settlers aka Ashkenazi Jews.
Wow.. This was filled with historical fallacies and current fallacies. Gaza hasn't been occupied since 2005 for example.
So what? It's not like they have freedom. There's been a blockade since 2007.
Yes, it has. Most international institutions consider Gaza occupied because of Israel's control of the airspace, water, borders and the siege.
free palestine
I think, that: people; of ALL Faith's and back-ground's, whether they be:
Muslim, Jewish, ARABic, Christian; Atheist, Bhuddist and/or; Sikh and/or; black, White and/or; Asian and so 4th; should:
"STAND Up, for: the right; to: Refuse; to: fight!!"!!
Yeah all kinds of people have been living in plastine before all of this
I love this video. Thank You JVP for creating it.
2580 jews watch this

xD
The channel is called "Jewish Voice for Peace"......Hm.....This video won't be one sided at all......
Great
Beautiful video. Thank you!
It's extremely biased and wrong, I feel bad that you believe it's true.
Bnayahu Zanadni I feel bad that you don’t think it’s true
@@bnaZan6550 the reason i don't think it's biased is bc this video has allowed me to understand why Jewish people are doing what they're doing. But that doesn't make it right
I often find myself sighing after watching videos like these because no matter what you write you're accused of being anti- Semitic. What is happening in Palestine Is wrong. Ppl just want peace. The world can see this.
It is both their sword and shield. If you can simply dismiss someone as a racist, you don't have to contend with what they are saying. A Jewish scholar named Norman Finklestein wrote two books about this. One was about how it is used daily in Israeli/American politics to dismiss legitimate criticisms of Israel, and the other was about how Zionism used latent guilt of Western nations from the holocaust to help create a Jewish state. He himself is referred to as a "self-hating Jew" because of his lifelong fight against Zionism.
But it's right! The palest*nians don't want 2 countries for 2 peoples. They want to destroy Israel... But they pretend thay want 2 countries...
Very similar to the indigenous people in Australia.
Only on the most superficial level.
Why do we Palestinians have to accept the existence of another state that forced us to leave our homes and committed many heinous massacres against us, so why do we tolerate their persecution, so why do we accept their attempts to demolish Al-Aqsa Mosque? ? ? It is one of the most important religious landmarks in Islam. The conflict is not only over land, it is a conflict of beliefs, and peace cannot be achieved, as I said, we indigenous people.
I am Jewish and I also live in Israel for my whole life and I just wanted to say that we won this land over wars in which Jews died I am not saying that Arabs didn't but I wanted to mention that we earned our land and all Jews at past took the risk of dying just so the next generations will enjoy living peacefully. My great grandmother and great grandfather died in the holocaust and before they did they sent my grandfather to somewhere safe on the train when he was just three years old. My other great grandmother escaped from Russia at the time on a potato cart when she was just nineteen while her all family who didn't manage to escape died. I don't know about my other great grandfather because he passed away before I was born and I don't know many details about my grandfather's story because he died from cancer when I was five. So yeah I went a bit off ah anyway you get my point, I will stay on this land and so will the next generations to come.
So you created one group of refugees to live happy while the others suffer famine and civil disorders???
So you are saying that the only way Palestinians can get freedom is by winning the land back? You mean like what Hamas want to do
Thank you for this video, thank you for this so simple and accurate explanation of the Palestinian problem, thank you for this call for struggle and for peace. I also really love your Chanukah message, although I'm not Jew and I have nothing to do with this celebration. Congratulations. And don't forget: "be courageous"!
Bias video....
He did not explain why Palestinians suffered ....?
Palestinians suffered Because during the partition Palestinians doesn't like to have neighbor on that land .....Instead Palestinians making War with Israel.
Free Palestinians from hamas and radical islam, which is hellbent on destroying Nations of democracy that value human rights & liberty, like Israel, the only true democracy in the Middle East. 💪🇮🇱❤️
We are all human beings. In Canada, we have learned to share and to respect immigrants on their own terms (although I am a "Canadian," I too have come from roots that go back to another country, and probably another religion - I am an offspring of immigrants - and for me, that is not important in the grand scheme of things) - we all deserve respect. And we need to share wealth in whatever form it takes and be kind to one another.
Good work...!!
I am an Israeli Jew who loves Israel and very, the only thing that really saddens me this is the age of eight I had to stay in a safe room, not knowing the next day I stayed at in life, I'm sad there is no peace, I believe there is also a lot of Arabs who want peace already ...
(Sorry with my writing in English is not good)
انا يهودي اسرائيلي الذي يحب إسرائيل وجدا، والشيء الوحيد الذي يحزن حقا لي هذا هو سن الثامنة واضطررت الى البقاء في غرفة آمنة، لا يعرفون في اليوم التالي مكثت في الحياة، وأنا حزين هناك لا سلام، أعتقد أن هناك أيضا الكثير من العرب الذين يريدون السلام بالفعل ...

יובל טואטי אני יהודי ישראלי שאוהב את ישראל ומאוד, הדבר היחיד שבאמת מעציב אותי זה גיל שמונה היה עליי להישאר בחדר בטוח, שלא ידענו ביום שלמחרת נשארתי בחיים, אני עצוב שיש לא לשלום, אני מאמין שיש גם הרבה ערבים שרוצים שלום כבר ...

Ask you parents to return the land to the native population and you will live in peace with the Arabs like Jews and Arabs once did.
parents ? how my parents can change ?
My great grandparents were Jewish. They and as far as they could remember all lived in Europe. You're DNA is probably more European than you might think. Same with your parents. Your home is in Europe. Give the land up or share it and don't call it Israel. Theodore Herzl even was open to Israel being located in Argentina.
Love Jewish Voice for Peace!
Sending their military into the internationally recognized land of another to ethnically cleanse them in the "settlement policy" is not an attempt to make peace.
@@brcarter1111 who are you referring to and at what time?
@@daniolivia5032 The Israelis in the recognized Palestinian territory. It is the stated goal of zionism to clear this region and create a Jewish majority. It is no different than any of the other crusades, only more protracted. As for the time, right now and every day since around the 1920s. The Israeli government has ultimately decided the cost of a few of its citizens blown off the face of the Earth every few years are worth the permanent aquisition of land. Interestingly, you used to be able to see the Israeli bulldozers illegally clearing away Palestinian villages to make their own on google images, but it has since been removed.
@@brcarter1111 "recognized Palestinian territory" that land was never Palestinian territory before 1948, but if you're referring to the 1967 war, Israel did not start it, and afterwards backed out of Gaza. And that is not Zionism's goal.
@@daniolivia5032 I also want to say thank you. Having civil discourse with someone who disagrees with me on this matter is exceedingly rare these days. There is nothing that would make me happier, after all the centuries of tragedy, to see the people of the Jewish faith have a land of their own where they can live in peace and practice self determination. It is my belief that not anti-semitism, Islamic extremism, nor Palestinian nationhood present the greatest threat to this dream, but instead it is the current practices of the Israeli government. I would offer the same advice to a Palestinian, who in his frustration, sought to fire a rocket in the direction of Israel. Using violence and hatred to achieve their goal is suicidal to their cause. If Isreal rightfully demands self determination and the right to exist, why shouldn't Palestine?
- While the name of this organization is "Jewish Voices for Peace," it is not interested in confronting the human rights violations, violence, or war in the rest of the Middle East. The disingenuous name represents the organization well.
- 4/5th of "Historic Palestine" belongs to the Arabs, the nation of Jordan.
- Millions of Jewish refugees who fled to Israel were expelled from Arab and Moslem nations, places in which they had lived before the Moslem conquest.
- Peace has been offered to the Arabs/Palestinians many times over 80 years by the British, the UN and Israel and the Arabs/Palestinians always refused.
JVP and J Street wants peace and coexistence between Palestinian and Jews.
We Muslim must support that. We must accept the Israel existence and well as Palestine existence.
Despite being presented as fact, there are many inaccuracies in this version of the foundation of the state of Israel. Inaccuracies which, of course, pose a pro-Palestine position. Please, I challenge you to post a more accurate, and historically correct version, and let's see how well this works for your campaign. I am in support neither side, but prefer that if you are going to attempt to gain support for a cause, that it is done using historically valid fact.
You can't handle the truth. Even Israeli historians not only agree with this narrative of the founding of Israel, but they paint a picture of the Zionists which is even more shameful.
Same thing happened in Canada and United States with the native population who were here who originally.
absolutely no comparised=n! The natives of the "new world" had been there for 14,000 years before the invasions by the European whites!
@@TheWhalesinger and no one cared about that
It would have been interesting to have a genuine and thoughtful discussion about this. Perhaps even discuss ideas on how to move forward BUT the comments I read are 90% hate and insults. So sad.
I'm Israeli let's discuss
Please do not assume what my opinion is by my question. But I have a genuine question. If/when the Jews end the occupation, where do they go?
Who else is here for school lol?😂
The video shows a lot of false information
