You can easly say the same about any US election, democrat or republican. Voted Bush in, millions died in what became two wars that lasted decades... "look what happened". Voted Obama in, health care costs trippled and started meddaling in Ukraine, "look what happened". Voted Trump in, everyone became redneck idiots and Idiocracy finally came true, "look what happened". Voted Biden back in, picked up where they left off and started a war with Russia, let Israel murder 20k kids in Gaza, and almost start WW3,, "look what happened". Trump back in,,,, we'll see what's gonna happen. Sure, like your Gaza theory, you can blame it all on the people, most of which are tired, confused, hungry, and just trying to live their fucking lives.

There's a factual error at 14:57 when it's said that "Hamas won 44% of seats in the Palestinian Legislative Council" in the 2006 election. 44% was the percentage of votes achieved by Hamas, but they won 74 of the 132 seats in the PLC (i.e., 56% of the seats).
It is extremely important because it shows that it was actually Fatah who orchestrated a coup - with IL and US support. All parties running in that election, including H...s were approved by IL and the US. If they didn't want them to run for the votes they could have banned them to do so. Not real democracy but who cared at that point. But after they won the election it was the coup against the election results that kept Fatah in power in the West Bank. The coup was unsuccessful int Gaza where H...s replied with extreme brutality. But any other narrative of the story is mere lie.
FYI: it also does not state how many people went to vote and the fact that 45/50% of population was under 18, so could not vote. The turnout was of around 74% in Gaza. So the 44% of 74% = 32% of total voting population. If considered the total population is 16%.
7:38 There were many jews living in Gaza before 2002 or 2006 when the Israeli army forced them to leave and dragged out Jews that had lived their whole life in Gaza.
"Israel offered citizenship to the Gazans and Palestinians in general": This is like what Meloni says in Italy. "You have to earn citizenship, live up to our standards, and we will see" That is not the same thing as offering citizenship. It is a spin. ( Scripture (if you are not a fundamentalist) tells us this: that Divine Grace is unconditional. ) (A theological nicety, you say. Doesn´t have anything to do with this. Right? ) The Israelis were saying, this is our land, and you will be allowed here on our terms. In other hands you will be second class citizens...forever. This follows from the fundamentalist logic of the Israeli State. So if we are going to talk about the Israeli State and its future, we have to talk about this fundamentalist logic and reject it. And reject it! Only like that is a peaceful future possible. Do not confuse this with "the total destruction of Israel" If you cannot make that distinction you are a fundamentalist. There are Islamic Fundamentalists but there are also Israeli fundamentalists. (AND there are Christian Fundamentalists (Cfr. Christian Nationalism) ) Your video Ignores the whole story of Israeli cruelties and by the games it plays, it justifies them and deserves condemnation for that reason. "Noble, fair Israel, versus nasty ignorant Arabs." Scripture gives us the story of Ahab, Jezebel and Naboth. The point of the story is that Naboth had property rights, and that those property rights were divinely given. You can´t just run roughshod over them. Even if you are the King of Israel!! Palestinians must be given equality of rights. The Palestinian people must be recognized. Pluralism. That is the condition of peace. Ahab repented. "When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and fasted. He lay in sackcloth and went about meekly. (1 Kings 21:27)
The 1987 Intifada was planned also. Between 1967 and 1986 the Arabs in the West Bank DID have autonomy - the civil service that performed under Jordanian rule continued under Israeli rule - until Arafat ordered the workers to quit their jobs. At that point Israel had to choose between leaving the Arabs without vital services or taking active control of the area. Israel made the compassionate decision to take control and Arafat used this as his excuse to order the Intifada. And of course it spread also to Gaza.
really the Gazans & all their terrorists couldn't run a dog show. Hamas & the PLO & PLA could not agree on anything then another terrorist organisation appeared in Gaza noone knew who they were. Hamas did one thing the PLO did another. bickering, fighting gazans killing gazans. etc. Chaos. The middle east is rife with muslims having sex with animals even dolphins.
"Were the Palestinians finally willing to compromise with the Israelis?" That is such a one sided and perverse way of putting it. At least ask the opposite question alongside that one.
Zi onists suddenly arrive with “3,000 years ago, our ancestors used to be here, so get the fxcking out” These people really think the world started when joos started to occupy the area MILLENNIA AGO
Here's another question that can be asked: did the Palestinians ever agree to a deal to create their own nation-state? Of course, the answer is no, and that is more a failure of Palestinian leadership, because that leadership made it clear through their actions over and over that they would accept nothing less than a Judenrein land ruled by them. The only way forward is through compromise, and the only way to get there is to build sufficient trust to be able to negotiate a permanent agreement. The failure of Oslo was that it was an interim agreement, designed to build trust, but Palestinian leadership viewed it as just a stepping stone to achieving their final goal of eradicating Israel. The end result is now a hardened right-wing in Israel that does not see any hope of having a negotiating partner with the Palestinians and view, especially Yehuda and Shomron as part of Israel, and a Palestinian leadership that cannot get past the fact they will have to accept Israel and negotiate a deal for statehood in the territories. In my opinion, the real culprit here are the surrounding Arab nations, who after 1948 should have absorbed the refugees instead of putting them in camps to fester. It was the cruelest thing they could have done. In wars countries gain and lose territory and there is almost always refugees and population transfers. After the greatest conflagration of our times, WWII, millions of people were displaced and resettled. It was not impossible to do...unless nations wished to use the refugees as a political weapon.
Arafat never walked away from the camp david accords. He was willing to keep the talks going, but they had a massive disagreement on the map for East Jerusalem. Then Israel refused to deal with Arafat, that ended the talks.
arafat wants the whole israel teritory, off course israel can not give it to him. Asking so much with little army, thinking that USA will make israel accept arafat demand. Common. Israel still know arafat and his people can not be trusted, live together with arabs, just waiting them to attack while israelites asleep? 7 oct is the proof. Now there are no more two country solution. Whom to blame? perhaps putin(for 7 oct is his birthday), perhaps the hamas leaders,(for doing whatever the money giver asking them to do), or perhaps the israelites(for leaving gaza and not controlling it)?
That is an oversimplification of what happened, to say the least. The Palestinians wanted complete sovereignty over East Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount/Haram al Sharif. They offered give Israel authority over the Western Wall and the Jewish Quarter. Authority was not sovereignty, which meant that access could be cut off by the Palestinians at their whim. East Jerusalem was to be an open city. The Israelis basically wanted the reverse of those proposals, and they also wanted to annex Jewish communities built after the 1967 war over the Green Line. There was also disagreement about the Palestinian demand for a right of return of refugees to Israel. In other words, these were complex issues, particularly the Temple mount right of return, and really required long term negotiation and compromise.
@@jackpine4347 Yes, which is why Arafat excepted future negotiations. But as soon as Ariel Sharon became prime minister, Israel refused any and all negotiations with Arafat present.
i get the feeling that this is a good attempt of explaining the situation. A 21 minute explanation will always miss some details and it is not for me or many others to say (or think) that those missing details would change the explanation entirely.
Not true. He already explained how there was a period of peace and economy and cultural exchange. Moreover, all the three villages attacked on October 7th are peace believers, free of religion minded people, they chose to give jobs and help those in Gaza. That’s how they knew which houses to go to, who were unarmed and weak. The betrayed the only ones that were literally, giving them a chance to prove that they are right.
U want the people of gaza to befriend the people that are ok with ethincally cleansing them, unaliving them, graping them, oppressing them, Imprisoning them without evidence, accusing them of terror without evidence, restricting them, spying on them exc.... This is one sided. The moment the Israeli people come our and condemn their cgovernment peace will never prevail. Revenge will be sort. The palestinians deserve justice.
The media worldwide is working hard every day to insure this remains the case. The abject and complete ignorance of people about this situation and their passionate and violent dedication to retain this ignorance is the height and glory of news media and journalists, in league with the Arab controlled UN.
I don't understand, why 1967? On May 15, 1948, one day after the establishment of the State of Israel, the surrounding countries attacked Israel. In this war, Trans-Jordan occupied much of the area west of the Jordan, including Jerusalem. This annexation was illegal. The Six-Day War followed in 1967, again between Israel and its surrounding neighbors. Israel regained control of the 1948 territories, including Jerusalem and Sinai. After giving Sinai to Egypt in 1979, Israel now controls almost exactly the territory that was allocated to the Jewish people in the Mandate for Palestine, as far as the part west of the Jordan. The West Bank and Jerusalem are also included. This territory has never been assigned by law to any other nation other than Israel. According to the Mandate, Jews are allowed and even encouraged to live in any part of Palestine.
exactly the 1920 San Remo Agreement (League of Nations) is still valid under international law. As long as there is no new division, it all belongs to the Jewish Homeland from the River to the Sea (Named like this in 1920).
@@birgittavanblitterswijk6998 The conference resolved to provisionally recognize the independence of Syria and Mesopotamia, while placing them, along side Palestine (including Transjordan), under Mandatory control. The Mandatories were to be selected by said Powers with the approval of the League of Nations.
@@lauriew3517 But The Jewish Homeland, from the River to the Sea, was created by the San Remo Agreement in accordance with the promise made in the Balfour Declaration (agreed by the UK, US, Russia and France together!), while the Arabs got over 75 % of the British Mandate of Palestine. And if the British had been more strict concerning the huge influx of Muslims/Arabs (legal and illegal) to the Jewish Homeland between 1918-1948 and more open to immigration of Jews of Europe to this land instead of putting the immigration of Jews under a strict and low yearly quotum, all this mess with the so called 'Palestinians would not have happened. I dare even say the Holocaust would not have happened! Neither in Europe (they could have escaped to this Homeland in masses) neither in the Jewish Homeland (in that case larger number of Jews and therefor hardly any Arab support within this homeland for the Nazi-mufti in Jerusalem).
@@birgittavanblitterswijk6998 Here lies the central issue with the declaration - why would the minority be seen as people with political rights, while the majority, the Palestinians, were seen as "non-Jewish communities" to be granted only civil and religious rights? The declaration also failed to identify these "non-Jewish communities".
One thing I would say is that these wars over religious prejudices always happen to be out of misinterpretation or ignorance to some of the most important points in both the Shariah and the Jewish Teachings about coexistence with the others, like we have the idea in the Islamic teachings insisting to respect others and never despise them even if they have what could contradict to their beliefs (both the Sharia and the Sunnah), an example from Sunan Al-Tirmidhi: On the authority of Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: “It reached Safiyyah that Hafsah said, ‘[She is] the daughter of a Jew,’ so she cried. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered upon her while she was crying and said, ‘What makes you cry?’ She said, ‘Hafsah said to me, ‘I am the daughter of a Jew.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘You are the daughter of a prophet, your uncle is a prophet, and you are married to a prophet. What does she boast about to you?’ Then he said, ‘Fear Allah, O Hafsah.’” Here, Safiyyah is a Jewish wife of the Prophet Muhammad, and recieved abuse and criticism from the Muslim wives antisemitically, therefore, she went to complain about that to the prophet, and instead of defending his other Muslim wives, he had encouraged Safiyyah to be proud of her Jewish lineage, proving that avoiding the Jews should be in a general sense, in other words, avoiding commitment to Judaism much like any other non-Islamic religion Islamic studies had told to avoid, but nor the Quran nor the Hadiths had obliged the Muslims to be "aggressive" or "antisemitic" at the Jews "just because they are Jewish"... And the similar idea comes to Judaism in the concept of "Goyim", much like the Quran, the Goyim are considered against God, and the same goes with the Kuffar and the Mushrikīn "Pagans" in the Quran, but despite this, neither both religions had insisted to fight the people who follow a religion that contradicts with the other for no just reason, according to Leviticus 19:34, and Surah Al-Hujurat 49 : 13, both talks about how we should coexist with each other! And now with the situation of Palestine and Israel, it is more of a topic that relies on Justice than Religion and Theology, both have a history, both have an identity in this land, as all the Arabs (whether they are Palestinians or not), and the Israelites are all belonging to Shem (or Sām in Arabic), giving us all the identity of semitism, therefore fighting against each other does not make anything better, and would lead to possible regrets in the future... I wish both sides know that even tho they have their own traumas, it is immoral to eliminate the neighbors for their culture or religious identity, and now, I'd say, that from the river to the sea, there will be peace and empathy! Salam and Shalom from an Arab Jew! ❤️🖤🤍💚🤍💙🤍💙🤍
I very much appreciate what you are saying and it's absolute the right thing to live this way - but many many muslims don't see it as you do, and sadly there are countless verses in the Quran and Hadiths which clearly promote hate. Israel wants to live in peace with all of it's neighbors and Muslims in Israel have all the rights and opportunities like Jews, Druses, Christians and all other people. In contrast to that the majority of the people in Gaza, the Westbank and all the radical Islamist proxies of the Iranian mullahs want not peace with Israel - they want the state of Israel eradicated and all Jews dead. So the "both sides should..." arguments is a bit problematic...
@@fiddleronthebike I mean, even our religion have some instances of hatred, but if you get to now these interpretations properly, here's the thing. They hate whoever is non-muslim in a general way, and Israel is like a bridge between Islam and non-muslims, that's why they always have extremist groups that occasionally demands end for not pnly Jews but rather any other religion, I saw it myself as a Mizrahi still living outside of Israel, the sheer amount of destruction the extremist groups do around by targeting Shiites/Hindus/Jews and even sometimes Muslims themselves is dramatic, for the fact that "they do not woship God properly". But to understand how did this all happen, I had read almost the entire Wikipedia page that explains the Antisemitic perspective in Islam, most of the facts mentioned, which are researches and surveys done by Jews and Non-muslims, suggest that their hatred is mostly out of either their misinterpretation for the voluntary conversion that Islam promotes, therefore forcing Islam onto the others, or that they had a significant change in look towards the non-muslims after the invasions that some minorities of our religion had did against them, which back then the number of the Muslim population was a miniscule and that Jews and Christians outnumbered them, therefore these invasions had led to general assumption that WE hate Muslims, it's more of a desire of revenge to them than it is just a hatred that came out of nowhere, their history is what led them to become now, a great example as well is Türkiye, which is the only Islamic state that is prone to change and revolution, therefore a more secular state despite it's Islamic practices, in one hand, their attempt to construct a modernized society that bridges both Middle Eastern and European cultures in one place had achieved success, but on the other hand, their hatred towards the Jews is still continuing, not because of what happened in the early Islamic days back then, but that's during World War I and II, they tried to prevent Jewish migrations to their Islamic empire, and let me remind for a thing or two, the Ottomen Empire isn't today's Türkiye, in fact, Turkish people hates and despises what The Ottomen Empire did for the fact they had a massive collaboration with Nazi Germany back then, another thing is that they do not hate Israel the same way Muslims does, it's more of an economical or political reasons, therefore their hatred is more valid considering the fact that they're moderna nd secular and does not rely on Islam over everything, but for the rest of the Arabic nations it's all almost the same, as in whenever trouble comes they believe the solution is Islam, and the case is done. And yes, I understand that and do believe that you are right at one point, but please don't sum up an entire religion or its followers for something that they share in common, remember, in the light there's a shadow, and in the darkness there is a light, cheers and love from me, wish you a good day!

@@Expatnema you should inform yourself! First: in Gaza there was NOT ONE SINGLE SETTLER, Gaza was without any Jews since 2006. in Judea and Samaria on the other hand, where Jewish settlers do exist, they have less than 2% of the land, but they contribute a significant amount to the economy and they are employers for many „Palestinians“, paying way higher wages than the Arab counterparts - so they make the live of many Arabs better! And at the same time there are huge areas with empty houses and land like desert due to the corruption in the Palestinian Authority! The Jewish settlers do not harass their Arab neighbors, they want to live in peace. And at the rare occasions where they responded to violence of their Arab neighbors they are held accountable by Israel’s courts.

@@Astroflowers_ia It was called Syria-Palestina under the Otoman Empire. It included today's Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Israel. After WWI the British and French divided the land. The Balfur decleration of 1917 promised the Israel (and arguably Jordan) part for building a home for the Jewish people. Since 1917 til 1948, the British (in their Mandate) tried to avoid that decision and stopped Jews from entering the land (the White Book for example) and encouraged Arabs to come. More than 50% of the Arabs in Israel in 1948 came after 1917. Those are all facts that you can check.

Just a small correction ~1:40 you said Palis were forced to flee - instead what actually happened is that they were told to run away by their leaders while their leaders kill all the Jews and afterwards they can come back and enjoy the spoils of war and the extra territories taken from the Jews. What actually happened is that those who ignored these instructions and remained were not touched, and they when Israel was established and it's new borders created for the 3rd time in history, those who were already living and remained within those borders was given full and equal citizenship. Those people still exist today as the 2 millions Israeli Arabs that have equal rights as every other Israeli, they vote, get elected, be part of the legal process as prosecutors and judges, serve in the army, travel study and work freely like any other equal citizen. ------------ Also another small but critical correction ~15:50 - After Hamas was elected they lynched and killed all their opposing parties within Gaza, so that was the end of democracy.

The Palestinians were expelled 50 years ago by Israel. Israel legalized forced eviction. Even now people in the West Bank are terrorizing by Jewish nationalists. Their houses are bulldozed because Israeli court won’t legalize their homes.
What you said is really where the solution have been, right under their very noses. If only the Israel or Palestinian Government or authority at the first place should have said that, they are the administrative or governing authority of the territory, but whoever has been here ever since whether Arabs, Palestinians or Jews, you still have the personal right of ownership to any peace of land you own. By then, the people will be happy to be a part of a state that recognises their existence at the personal level without regards to their ethnicity, religion or whatever. There would not be any problems like today they are facing.

Hardly! Why no mention of the massacres of Palestinian civilians by the embryonic IDF in 1948 that created up to 800,000 refugees who are today ancestral to almost all Gazans? According to Rosemarie Esber, Israeli archives and Palestinian testimonies confirm killings occurred in numerous Arab villages. Most of these massacres occurred as villages were overrun and captured. Morris said that the "worst cases" were the Saliha massacre with 60 to 70 killed, the Deir Yassin massacre with around 112, the Lydda massacre with around 250, the Tantura massacre with between 40-200+, and the Abu Shusha massacre with 60-70. In Al-Dawayima Morris has estimated "hundreds" and reports the IDF investigation which concluded 100 villagers had been killed. David Ben-Gurion gave the figure of 70-80. He even sent a message to King Abdullah of Jordan apologising. Please note that the IDF, Ben-Gurion, Esber and Morris are ALL Israeli. This is NOT the Palestinian version.

Howdie! Leftist Israeli here. Let me just add that this slick video is 80% of the story at best. There are quite a few details left out from the Netanyahu years, like him getting elected on the platform of eliminating Hamas, but actually helping them fight the PA so he can divide and conquer.
The concept of connection to the land versus rightful ownership is a crucial distinction. Both the Quran and the Bible describe the Jews as the people of Israel, with a historical and spiritual connection to the land. From a religious perspective: - In the Quran, the Land of Israel is described as a holy land, and the Jews are mentioned as the chosen people (e.g., Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:20-21). - In the Bible, the Land of Israel is promised to the Jewish people as an everlasting inheritance (e.g., Genesis 17:8, Ezekiel 37:21-22). - Religious texts can be interpreted in various ways, and their meanings can be contextualized within historical and cultural frameworks. - The concept of "rightful ownership" is a modern legal and political construct, which may not directly apply to ancient texts.🤔🤔
This is just not true. Many of them were displaced and this is being continued now in West Bank... You can literally see videos of so called "settlers"...
This video starts by saying that, in 1967, Israel went to war. However, it didn't mention it did so in defense after being attacked by the Arab states. Israel was attacked literally from the start, the very day after declaring independence. It states nobody wants to live under military control, but doesn't mention that Gaza was twice controlled by the Egyptian military, without issues. It said that Israel offered the Palestinians citizenship, but never mentioned that Egypt REFUSED to do the same. And it mentions that Israel placed a blockade on Gaza while it's under Hamas control, but glossed over the fact that Egypt is also enforcing the blockade. Hamas say they need tunnels to protect themselves from Israeli attacks, but they wouldn't need them if they didn't attack Israel to begin with! The reality is that this isn't about land, it's about Islam vs Judaism, and peace can only come from strong leadership on both sides.
It was actually Israel who struck first. On the morning of June 5, 1967, Israel launched a preemptive strike against Egyptian forces. Easy Google search.
If A wanted to punch B, with clenched fists and getting ready to punch B, it's within B's self defense right to punch first and disable A from punching B. In this case the defense came by way of offense. Pretty easy to understand unless blinded by antisemitism. @@jimmyhyun8546

That was surprisingly fair and balanced! So much so that I think you are broad-minded enough to investigate on your own the facts that although the Egyptians were meticulous record keepers there is no mention of any Hebrew shepherds in the land of Goshen, nor any evidence that the Jews were captive brickmakers in Egypt for 400 years, nor that any pharoah's daughter saved a Hebrew child she found in the river, nor any modern archeological evidence (not a shred) that several million people performed a forty-year wandering in the Sinai - and even if there were, Canaan and Israel were Egyptian territories at the time so the Jews would have been fleeing Egypt to another part of Egypt. Please look into it, I would love to see a video on this topic and what you, and the nation of Israel in general, make of it.
This an absolutely well throught out, well researched facts on the historical background between Arabs and Jews, the PLO and Israel. Very informative narrative presented here.
When Israel offered to give Gaza back to Egypt, Egypt said no. That speaks volume! When Israel forced every Jew out of Gaza in 2005, Gazans could have developed the city into a prosperous, touristic coastal city and they could freely move in out of Gaza until they elected Hamas, who kept launching terror attacks/suicide bombings in Israel. Israel had no choice, but close the border.
Hamas is controlled and influenced by Jewish leaders to make Palestine Hamas look like enemy and terrorists so Israel can justify their actions and making Gaza into an open air prison
"When Israel forced every Jew out of Gaza in 2005," Never happened. Israel remained as an occupying power, controlling everything down to the collection of taxes.
@ryanmoore2447 there is no such thing as ‘Palestinian’ land. ‘Palestina’ is the old greco-roman renaming of JUDEA AND SAMARIA, cradle of JEWISH civilisation, by Roman invaders. After the fall of Ottoman Turk occupation, the land was under British Mandate that partitioned the territory into Israel and Jordan (1946).
Almost right. 'Syria Palestina' was the name given to the whole of Israel by the Romans, after they quashed the Bar Kochva revolt in A.D. 135. 'Palestina' is Latin for 'land of the Philistines', and the Romans chose that name as a deliberate insult to the Jews, because the Philistines had been Israel's ancient enemies. (By Roman times, they had long since ceased to exist as an identifiable ethnic group.) However, there has never, at any time in history, been an independent sovereign state called Palestine, it was only ever a part of Greater Syria. Arabs living in Israel simply called themselves 'Arabs' until the mid 1960's. The British were given the Mandate for Palestine in 1920, following WW1 and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. At that time, Palestine included what is now the Kingdom of Jordan, and all of it was designated as a homeland for Jews. Then we gave 78% of it (early 1920's not 1946), the area to the east of the River Jordan, to a minor Saudi prince, because we wanted oil, leaving only the area to the west of the river for a Jewish homeland. The eastern area was designated as a homeland for Palestinian Arabs! In 1922, all 51 members of the League of Nations approved this arrangement. After WW2, the U.N. took over all the rulings of its predecessor, so they still stand. Therefore, all the area 'from the river to the sea' belongs to Israel. Q.E.D.!

I am so happy I found this UA-cam channel. I value and appreciate the honest truth (this YT channel provides) in regards to the history and current affairs of Israel.
So, why no mention of the massacres of Palestinian civilians by the embryonic IDF in 1948 that created up to 800,000 refugees who are today ancestral to almost all Gazans? According to Rosemarie Esber, Israeli archives and Palestinian testimonies confirm killings occurred in numerous Arab villages. Most of these massacres occurred as villages were overrun and captured. Morris said that the "worst cases" were the Saliha massacre with 60 to 70 killed, the Deir Yassin massacre with around 112, the Lydda massacre with around 250, the Tantura massacre with between 40-200+, and the Abu Shusha massacre with 60-70. In Al-Dawayima Morris has estimated "hundreds" and reports the IDF investigation which concluded 100 villagers had been killed. David Ben-Gurion gave the figure of 70-80. He even sent a message to King Abdullah of Jordan apologising. Please note that the IDF, Ben-Gurion, Esber and Morris are ALL Israeli. This is NOT the Palestinian version.
99% of UA-cam vids are crap. Amateurish clickbait garbage. Your vids are not. They are very good. Your narration is professional, well spoken, and informed. Good looking out.
You're presentation is great. I usually agree with all your podcasts and find them accurate and interesting. I just need to correct a few points. I think you've colored the facts with a western outlook. And some are misinformed entirely. Saying it's occupied is an Arab/Russian invention. There was absolutely no need to give anything back accordingto international laws. The only thing the arabs want is a Jewish free Israel under their rule. And Arafat ימ"ש is recorded saying we can lie to Israel and to the West to achieve our goals. He actually rejected agreements that gave them loads of territory and autonomy. The biggest obstruction to piece are the Arabs because they don't want piece they want to rule the whole world. They are religious fanatics, racist, and believe only in sharia law. You can't handle them with talking and giving away, in the Arab world they consider you a joke. They only understand strength. At the end of our prayers 3 times a day one of the last things we say is what the children in Shushan told Haman: עוצו עיצה ותופר דברו דבר ולא יקום כי עמנו ק-ל "They can plan plans and talk talks but nothing will be fullfilled because G-D is with us." I believe this goes for the Israeli government as well. G-D has saved us from our own stupidity. The only reason Israel still exists is miraculous, and because G-D promised it and he wills it. And for the Arabs that is one of the biggest threats. That they see G-D is not on their side.
On Arafat lying - you should know that in Islam it is perfectly fine to LIE to those you are negotiating with, if you need to to get the result you want ! For Islam the only thing that matters is the end result. As in CONVERT or SUBDUE or KILL all those you come across in order to spread Islam - an actual instruction in their 'book' !!! So do not be surprised at Arafat !
Nice one sided history of Gaza where it looks like Israel did nothing wrong in effecting Gazans and Palestinians in mass. You might have thrown in the over 14 mass*acres that Israel is responsible for as well as the good ole occasional "mowing of the lawn" that Israel would gleefully do.. If you're going to portray the light in one way, maybe you can cover the full size of the case to make this acceptable as a good report of the facts. (I will see how long this post remains).
I don't understand why this begins in 1967. In 1948, Arabs chose to leave Israel when the Arab countries told them to and they started the first war. Then those Arabs were part of Egypt (and the West Bank of Jordan) until 1967, but they still lived in refugee camps 20 years later. You don't think that's significant that their own people kept them as refugees? And calling themselves Palestinians only happened starting in the 1960s; that is important too. They were not a minority group of united people, they were and are Arabs. Skipping over the Egyptian wall on the southern side of Gaza also shows the blatant disregard of the Arabs living in Gaza by other Arabs. And not answering the question is pretty cowardly. You clearly showed who owns Gaza; Israel won it from Egypt in a war, and Egypt didn't want it back. It belongs to Israel.
The weird thing is that Palestinians have "refugee" status for ever, from generation to generations, they got free money for ever from the EU, USA, UN and Arab nations, they used it for weapons and tunnels.

@ronnyfokaha, its their ancestoral homeland, they were forced out by different occupiers thoughout history, then forced out of their host countries like egypt etc where they migrated to. So here they just came back. Current palis are from neighboring arab countries, why dont these arab countrirs take them in?
Gaza and the coast were occupied by the Philistines thousands of years ago. They were taken over and disappeared from history as Philistines, but many of the people stayed in the surrounding area. Inland Palestinians were Semitic people from the area going back about 8-10 thousand years, from Philistines, Canaanites, and other local tribes of the times and then including migrant people from the immediate areas of north Egypt, Jordan, southern Lebanon, Syria. Palestinians have a similar yet separate identity from other Arab countries. Such as the countries of Europe are similar but have their own history and cultures. The Jews came onto the picture as a story of Abraham from Babylonia. They likely converted some local tribes to Judaism as Islam didn't come into existence until after Christianity of the 1st century. Most of the Jewish left a couple thousand years ago, but those that stayed were treated well and lived without conflict and free to practice their religion. Palestine was a thriving, busy, farming, fishing and trade hub for 400 years under the Ottomans until WW1. Goods from all over the region were transported through the port, spices, goods, grains etc from Africa and Asia were brought to the area for trade and transport. Palestine itself was particularly known for olive products, wool, fine soaps, pottery, glass, and produce. It was the hundreds of thousands of European refugees that immigrated into Palestine and with an army, forced 700,000 native Palestinians off their heritage farms, lands, villages around Jerusalem, the north, west bank etc. The Israeli army was violent killing people and executing children and elders and burning homes. Nearly a million displaced people. This is called the "Nakba" Some left to Jordan or Egypt but many went to Gaza.
Kudos for presenting such a frank look at the history. I appreciate that you acknowledge the wrongs and bad decisions of both sides, and that you show that neither side - Palestinian or Israeli - is monolithic in its view of the conflict. What comes across very clearly is that we have all been screwed by the fanatics on both sides, who somehow get the people in the middle to fight each other, when it is the fanatics on each side we should be working together to discredit and disempower.
Thank you, for this simple explanation (non-complicated). I started to overly judge Jews for the Gaza massacres but it is not that simple. Peace for Isreal and freedom for Palestine. ❤

Unpacked does not know real history or research.
Important point.
It is extremely important because it shows that it was actually Fatah who orchestrated a coup - with IL and US support.
All parties running in that election, including H...s were approved by IL and the US. If they didn't want them to run for the votes they could have banned them to do so. Not real democracy but who cared at that point. But after they won the election it was the coup against the election results that kept Fatah in power in the West Bank. The coup was unsuccessful int Gaza where H...s replied with extreme brutality.
But any other narrative of the story is mere lie.
FYI: it also does not state how many people went to vote and the fact that 45/50% of population was under 18, so could not vote. The turnout was of around 74% in Gaza. So the 44% of 74% = 32% of total voting population. If considered the total population is 16%.
@@truthfulparent FYI: these are irrelevant numbers. Labour governs Britain with cca 15% of the population. That is overwhealming victory. And so?

"Israel offered citizenship to the Gazans and Palestinians in general": This is like what Meloni says in Italy. "You have to earn citizenship, live up to our standards, and we will see" That is not the same thing as offering citizenship. It is a spin.
( Scripture (if you are not a fundamentalist) tells us this: that Divine Grace is unconditional. )
(A theological nicety, you say. Doesn´t have anything to do with this. Right? )
The Israelis were saying, this is our land, and you will be allowed here on our terms. In other hands you will be second class citizens...forever. This follows from the fundamentalist logic of the Israeli State.
So if we are going to talk about the Israeli State and its future, we have to talk about this fundamentalist logic and reject it.
And reject it! Only like that is a peaceful future possible.
Do not confuse this with "the total destruction of Israel" If you cannot make that distinction you are a fundamentalist.

Your video Ignores the whole story of Israeli cruelties and by the games it plays, it justifies them and deserves condemnation for that reason. "Noble, fair Israel, versus nasty ignorant Arabs."
Scripture gives us the story of Ahab, Jezebel and Naboth. The point of the story is that Naboth had property rights, and that those property rights were divinely given. You can´t just run roughshod over them. Even if you are the King of Israel!!
Palestinians must be given equality of rights. The Palestinian people must be recognized. Pluralism. That is the condition of peace.
Ahab repented. "When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and fasted. He lay in sackcloth and went about meekly. (1 Kings 21:27)
The 1987 Intifada was planned also. Between 1967 and 1986 the Arabs in the West Bank DID have autonomy - the civil service that performed under Jordanian rule continued under Israeli rule - until Arafat ordered the workers to quit their jobs. At that point Israel had to choose between leaving the Arabs without vital services or taking active control of the area. Israel made the compassionate decision to take control and Arafat used this as his excuse to order the Intifada. And of course it spread also to Gaza.
really the Gazans & all their terrorists couldn't run a dog show. Hamas & the PLO & PLA could not agree on anything then another terrorist organisation appeared in Gaza noone knew who they were. Hamas did one thing the PLO did another. bickering, fighting gazans killing gazans. etc. Chaos. The middle east is rife with muslims having sex with animals even dolphins.

Here's another question that can be asked: did the Palestinians ever agree to a deal to create their own nation-state? Of course, the answer is no, and that is more a failure of Palestinian leadership, because that leadership made it clear through their actions over and over that they would accept nothing less than a Judenrein land ruled by them. The only way forward is through compromise, and the only way to get there is to build sufficient trust to be able to negotiate a permanent agreement. The failure of Oslo was that it was an interim agreement, designed to build trust, but Palestinian leadership viewed it as just a stepping stone to achieving their final goal of eradicating Israel. The end result is now a hardened right-wing in Israel that does not see any hope of having a negotiating partner with the Palestinians and view, especially Yehuda and Shomron as part of Israel, and a Palestinian leadership that cannot get past the fact they will have to accept Israel and negotiate a deal for statehood in the territories.
In my opinion, the real culprit here are the surrounding Arab nations, who after 1948 should have absorbed the refugees instead of putting them in camps to fester. It was the cruelest thing they could have done. In wars countries gain and lose territory and there is almost always refugees and population transfers. After the greatest conflagration of our times, WWII, millions of people were displaced and resettled. It was not impossible to do...unless nations wished to use the refugees as a political weapon.
@@UNPACKED And your answer: Israel was always willing to compromise unlike those godawful Arabs and Palestinians. History yaknow.
Arafat never walked away from the camp david accords. He was willing to keep the talks going, but they had a massive disagreement on the map for East Jerusalem. Then Israel refused to deal with Arafat, that ended the talks.
arafat wants the whole israel teritory, off course israel can not give it to him. Asking so much with little army, thinking that USA will make israel accept arafat demand. Common.

Did you listen to Clinton, who was the main facilitator?
That is an oversimplification of what happened, to say the least. The Palestinians wanted complete sovereignty over East Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount/Haram al Sharif. They offered give Israel authority over the Western Wall and the Jewish Quarter. Authority was not sovereignty, which meant that access could be cut off by the Palestinians at their whim. East Jerusalem was to be an open city. The Israelis basically wanted the reverse of those proposals, and they also wanted to annex Jewish communities built after the 1967 war over the Green Line. There was also disagreement about the Palestinian demand for a right of return of refugees to Israel. In other words, these were complex issues, particularly the Temple mount right of return, and really required long term negotiation and compromise.
@@jackpine4347 Yes, which is why Arafat excepted future negotiations. But as soon as Ariel Sharon became prime minister, Israel refused any and all negotiations with Arafat present.

The abject and complete ignorance of people about this situation and their passionate and violent dedication to retain this ignorance is the height and glory of news media and journalists, in league with the Arab controlled UN.
I don't understand, why 1967? On May 15, 1948, one day after the establishment of the State of Israel, the surrounding countries attacked Israel. In this war, Trans-Jordan occupied much of the area west of the Jordan, including Jerusalem. This annexation was illegal. The Six-Day War followed in 1967, again between Israel and its surrounding neighbors.
Israel regained control of the 1948 territories, including Jerusalem and Sinai. After giving Sinai to Egypt in 1979, Israel now controls almost exactly the territory that was allocated to the Jewish people in the Mandate for Palestine, as far as the part west of the Jordan. The West Bank and Jerusalem are also included. This territory has never been assigned by law to any other nation other than Israel. According to the Mandate, Jews are allowed and even encouraged to live in any part of Palestine.
exactly the 1920 San Remo Agreement (League of Nations) is still valid under international law. As long as there is no new division, it all belongs to the Jewish Homeland from the River to the Sea (Named like this in 1920).

And if the British had been more strict concerning the huge influx of Muslims/Arabs (legal and illegal) to the Jewish Homeland between 1918-1948 and more open to immigration of Jews of Europe to this land instead of putting the immigration of Jews under a strict and low yearly quotum, all this mess with the so called 'Palestinians would not have happened.

One thing I would say is that these wars over religious prejudices always happen to be out of misinterpretation or ignorance to some of the most important points in both the Shariah and the Jewish Teachings about coexistence with the others, like we have the idea in the Islamic teachings insisting to respect others and never despise them even if they have what could contradict to their beliefs (both the Sharia and the Sunnah), an example from Sunan Al-Tirmidhi:
On the authority of Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: “It reached Safiyyah that Hafsah said, ‘[She is] the daughter of a Jew,’ so she cried. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered upon her while she was crying and said, ‘What makes you cry?’ She said, ‘Hafsah said to me, ‘I am the daughter of a Jew.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘You are the daughter of a prophet, your uncle is a prophet, and you are married to a prophet. What does she boast about to you?’ Then he said, ‘Fear Allah, O Hafsah.’”
Here, Safiyyah is a Jewish wife of the Prophet Muhammad, and recieved abuse and criticism from the Muslim wives antisemitically, therefore, she went to complain about that to the prophet, and instead of defending his other Muslim wives, he had encouraged Safiyyah to be proud of her Jewish lineage, proving that avoiding the Jews should be in a general sense, in other words, avoiding commitment to Judaism much like any other non-Islamic religion Islamic studies had told to avoid, but nor the Quran nor the Hadiths had obliged the Muslims to be "aggressive" or "antisemitic" at the Jews "just because they are Jewish"...
And the similar idea comes to Judaism in the concept of "Goyim", much like the Quran, the Goyim are considered against God, and the same goes with the Kuffar and the Mushrikīn "Pagans" in the Quran, but despite this, neither both religions had insisted to fight the people who follow a religion that contradicts with the other for no just reason, according to Leviticus 19:34, and Surah Al-Hujurat 49 : 13, both talks about how we should coexist with each other!
And now with the situation of Palestine and Israel, it is more of a topic that relies on Justice than Religion and Theology, both have a history, both have an identity in this land, as all the Arabs (whether they are Palestinians or not), and the Israelites are all belonging to Shem (or Sām in Arabic), giving us all the identity of semitism, therefore fighting against each other does not make anything better, and would lead to possible regrets in the future...
I wish both sides know that even tho they have their own traumas, it is immoral to eliminate the neighbors for their culture or religious identity, and now, I'd say, that from the river to the sea, there will be peace and empathy!
Salam and Shalom from an Arab Jew!
❤️🖤🤍💚🤍💙🤍💙🤍
Who is eliminating who? Truth please...
I very much appreciate what you are saying and it's absolute the right thing to live this way - but many many muslims don't see it as you do, and sadly there are countless verses in the Quran and Hadiths which clearly promote hate. Israel wants to live in peace with all of it's neighbors and Muslims in Israel have all the rights and opportunities like Jews, Druses, Christians and all other people. In contrast to that the majority of the people in Gaza, the Westbank and all the radical Islamist proxies of the Iranian mullahs want not peace with Israel - they want the state of Israel eradicated and all Jews dead. So the "both sides should..." arguments is a bit problematic...
@@fiddleronthebike I mean, even our religion have some instances of hatred, but if you get to now these interpretations properly, here's the thing. They hate whoever is non-muslim in a general way, and Israel is like a bridge between Islam and non-muslims, that's why they always have extremist groups that occasionally demands end for not pnly Jews but rather any other religion, I saw it myself as a Mizrahi still living outside of Israel, the sheer amount of destruction the extremist groups do around by targeting Shiites/Hindus/Jews and even sometimes Muslims themselves is dramatic, for the fact that "they do not woship God properly". But to understand how did this all happen, I had read almost the entire Wikipedia page that explains the Antisemitic perspective in Islam, most of the facts mentioned, which are researches and surveys done by Jews and Non-muslims, suggest that their hatred is mostly out of either their misinterpretation for the voluntary conversion that Islam promotes, therefore forcing Islam onto the others, or that they had a significant change in look towards the non-muslims after the invasions that some minorities of our religion had did against them, which back then the number of the Muslim population was a miniscule and that Jews and Christians outnumbered them, therefore these invasions had led to general assumption that WE hate Muslims, it's more of a desire of revenge to them than it is just a hatred that came out of nowhere, their history is what led them to become now, a great example as well is Türkiye, which is the only Islamic state that is prone to change and revolution, therefore a more secular state despite it's Islamic practices, in one hand, their attempt to construct a modernized society that bridges both Middle Eastern and European cultures in one place had achieved success, but on the other hand, their hatred towards the Jews is still continuing, not because of what happened in the early Islamic days back then, but that's during World War I and II, they tried to prevent Jewish migrations to their Islamic empire, and let me remind for a thing or two, the Ottomen Empire isn't today's Türkiye, in fact, Turkish people hates and despises what The Ottomen Empire did for the fact they had a massive collaboration with Nazi Germany back then, another thing is that they do not hate Israel the same way Muslims does, it's more of an economical or political reasons, therefore their hatred is more valid considering the fact that they're moderna nd secular and does not rely on Islam over everything, but for the rest of the Arabic nations it's all almost the same, as in whenever trouble comes they believe the solution is Islam, and the case is done.
And yes, I understand that and do believe that you are right at one point, but please don't sum up an entire religion or its followers for something that they share in common, remember, in the light there's a shadow, and in the darkness there is a light, cheers and love from me, wish you a good day!

@@Expatnema you should inform yourself! First: in Gaza there was NOT ONE SINGLE SETTLER, Gaza was without any Jews since 2006. in Judea and Samaria on the other hand, where Jewish settlers do exist, they have less than 2% of the land, but they contribute a significant amount to the economy and they are employers for many „Palestinians“, paying way higher wages than the Arab counterparts - so they make the live of many Arabs better! And at the same time there are huge areas with empty houses and land like desert due to the corruption in the Palestinian Authority! The Jewish settlers do not harass their Arab neighbors, they want to live in peace. And at the rare occasions where they responded to violence of their Arab neighbors they are held accountable by Israel’s courts. That is the reality on the ground - you should not repeat propaganda lies without making your own observations!

It was called Syria-Palestina under the Otoman Empire. It included today's Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Israel. After WWI the British and French divided the land. The Balfur decleration of 1917 promised the Israel (and arguably Jordan) part for building a home for the Jewish people.
Since 1917 til 1948, the British (in their Mandate) tried to avoid that decision and stopped Jews from entering the land (the White Book for example) and encouraged Arabs to come. More than 50% of the Arabs in Israel in 1948 came after 1917.
Those are all facts that you can check.

Ask Israel why they don’t follow the original borders, or the Oslo Accord? Why did they invade the West Bank, when Hamas and the fighting was in Gaza?

Why is Israel attacking UNFIL and repeatedly violating the 2006 agreement they had with Lebanon and Hezbollah while Hezbollah honored the agreement by staying away from the border?

Why did Israel start the 6 day war when it was well known by everyone that Egypt was not going to attack? Why did they admit they intended to provoke Egypt and their neighboring counties years later after the 6 day war? Ask Israel about “Greater Israel”, why does it include land that was never ceded to Israel and what happened to the countries missing in that map?
Why didn't you mention the Jews who lived in Gaza for centuries who were all driven out and their land stolen by Arabs in 1929. You didn't bother to mention how Egypt treated Gaza before 1967. Leaving out those important contexts makes this an incomplete story.
In the whole so called Israel nowadays lived a minority of Jews and a majority of Arabs for thousands years, meanwhile you lived everywhere in the world besides this region.

Just a small correction ~1:40 you said Palis were forced to flee - instead what actually happened is that they were told to run away by their leaders while their leaders kill all the Jews and afterwards they can come back and enjoy the spoils of war and the extra territories taken from the Jews.
What actually happened is that those who ignored these instructions and remained were not touched, and they when Israel was established and it's new borders created for the 3rd time in history, those who were already living and remained within those borders was given full and equal citizenship. Those people still exist today as the 2 millions Israeli Arabs that have equal rights as every other Israeli, they vote, get elected, be part of the legal process as prosecutors and judges, serve in the army, travel study and work freely like any other equal citizen.
------------
Also another small but critical correction ~15:50 - After Hamas was elected they lynched and killed all their opposing parties within Gaza, so that was the end of democracy.

@ there is a difference between things that happened 2000 years and 50 years ago. The Jews were expelled 2000 years ago by a state that doesn’t exist anymore (Roman Empire).
The Palestinians were expelled 50 years ago by Israel.
Israel legalized forced eviction. Even now people in the West Bank are terrorizing by Jewish nationalists. Their houses are bulldozed because Israeli court won’t legalize their homes.
These discussions are complicated by a confusion between personal ownership of land, and administration of a territory.
What you said is really where the solution have been, right under their very noses.
If only the Israel or Palestinian Government or authority at the first place should have said that, they are the administrative or governing authority of the territory, but whoever has been here ever since whether Arabs, Palestinians or Jews, you still have the personal right of ownership to any peace of land you own.
By then, the people will be happy to be a part of a state that recognises their existence at the personal level without regards to their ethnicity, religion or whatever.
There would not be any problems like today they are facing.
Problem is that the Hamas militant wing gained a potential foothold when the original Hamas government was installed with support from both the West and by Israel.
@@Espiritu-o7xHamas had nothing to do with these two commentators are talking about.

In Al-Dawayima Morris has estimated "hundreds" and reports the IDF investigation which concluded 100 villagers had been killed. David Ben-Gurion gave the figure of 70-80. He even sent a message to King Abdullah of Jordan apologising. Please note that the IDF, Ben-Gurion, Esber and Morris are ALL Israeli. This is NOT the Palestinian version.

The concept of connection to the land versus rightful ownership is a crucial distinction. Both the Quran and the Bible describe the Jews as the people of Israel, with a historical and spiritual connection to the land.
From a religious perspective:
- In the Quran, the Land of Israel is described as a holy land, and the Jews are mentioned as the chosen people (e.g., Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:20-21).
- In the Bible, the Land of Israel is promised to the Jewish people as an everlasting inheritance (e.g., Genesis 17:8, Ezekiel 37:21-22).
- Religious texts can be interpreted in various ways, and their meanings can be contextualized within historical and cultural frameworks.
- The concept of "rightful ownership" is a modern legal and political construct, which may not directly apply to ancient texts.🤔🤔

This video starts by saying that, in 1967, Israel went to war. However, it didn't mention it did so in defense after being attacked by the Arab states. Israel was attacked literally from the start, the very day after declaring independence. It states nobody wants to live under military control, but doesn't mention that Gaza was twice controlled by the Egyptian military, without issues. It said that Israel offered the Palestinians citizenship, but never mentioned that Egypt REFUSED to do the same. And it mentions that Israel placed a blockade on Gaza while it's under Hamas control, but glossed over the fact that Egypt is also enforcing the blockade. Hamas say they need tunnels to protect themselves from Israeli attacks, but they wouldn't need them if they didn't attack Israel to begin with! The reality is that this isn't about land, it's about Islam vs Judaism, and peace can only come from strong leadership on both sides.
It was actually Israel who struck first. On the morning of June 5, 1967, Israel launched a preemptive strike against Egyptian forces.

That was surprisingly fair and balanced!

This an absolutely well throught out, well researched facts on the historical background between Arabs and Jews, the PLO and Israel. Very informative narrative presented here.
When Israel offered to give Gaza back to Egypt, Egypt said no. That speaks volume!
When Israel forced every Jew out of Gaza in 2005, Gazans could have developed the city into a prosperous, touristic coastal city and they could freely move in out of Gaza until they elected Hamas, who kept launching terror attacks/suicide bombings in Israel. Israel had no choice, but close the border.
The amount of Money and Man power spent on tunnels could have built a Offshore Natural Gas Platform to make Gaza wealthy.
Hard to build anything when Israel controls all the imports.
Hamas is controlled and influenced by Jewish leaders to make Palestine Hamas look like enemy and terrorists so Israel can justify their actions and making Gaza into an open air prison
"When Israel forced every Jew out of Gaza in 2005,"
Never happened. Israel remained as an occupying power, controlling everything down to the collection of taxes.
It is true that Palestinians seem utterly incapable of forming honest, peaceful, elected governments.

@ryanmoore2447 there is no such thing as ‘Palestinian’ land. ‘Palestina’ is the old greco-roman renaming of JUDEA AND SAMARIA, cradle of JEWISH civilisation, by Roman invaders. After the fall of Ottoman Turk occupation, the land was under British Mandate that partitioned the territory into Israel and Jordan (1946).
Almost right. 'Syria Palestina' was the name given to the whole of Israel by the Romans, after they quashed the Bar Kochva revolt in A.D. 135. 'Palestina' is Latin for 'land of the Philistines', and the Romans chose that name as a deliberate insult to the Jews, because the Philistines had been Israel's ancient enemies. (By Roman times, they had long since ceased to exist as an identifiable ethnic group.) However, there has never, at any time in history, been an independent sovereign state called Palestine, it was only ever a part of Greater Syria. Arabs living in Israel simply called themselves 'Arabs' until the mid 1960's.
The British were given the Mandate for Palestine in 1920, following WW1 and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. At that time, Palestine included what is now the Kingdom of Jordan, and all of it was designated as a homeland for Jews. Then we gave 78% of it (early 1920's not 1946), the area to the east of the River Jordan, to a minor Saudi prince, because we wanted oil, leaving only the area to the west of the river for a Jewish homeland. The eastern area was designated as a homeland for Palestinian Arabs! In 1922, all 51 members of the League of Nations approved this arrangement. After WW2, the U.N. took over all the rulings of its predecessor, so they still stand. Therefore, all the area 'from the river to the sea' belongs to Israel. Q.E.D.!
thanks for the great info
pretty objective video, rare to find these days
I crossed paths with King Hussein (the junior) once. He had 70 slaves that travelled with him. The slaves wore mink stoles and armani suits.
Slaves with Armani suits?
Reminds of a prior top ISIS leader. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who was photographed wearing a 30K Rolex watch on his wrist.

amazing video explaining the situation perfectly from both sides 👏

I am so happy I found this UA-cam channel. I value and appreciate the honest truth (this YT channel provides) in regards to the history and current affairs of Israel.
So, why no mention of the massacres of Palestinian civilians by the embryonic IDF in 1948 that created up to 800,000 refugees who are today ancestral to almost all Gazans? According to Rosemarie Esber, Israeli archives and Palestinian testimonies confirm killings occurred in numerous Arab villages. Most of these massacres occurred as villages were overrun and captured. Morris said that the "worst cases" were the Saliha massacre with 60 to 70 killed, the Deir Yassin massacre with around 112, the Lydda massacre with around 250, the Tantura massacre with between 40-200+, and the Abu Shusha massacre with 60-70. In Al-Dawayima Morris has estimated "hundreds" and reports the IDF investigation which concluded 100 villagers had been killed. David Ben-Gurion gave the figure of 70-80. He even sent a message to King Abdullah of Jordan apologising. Please note that the IDF, Ben-Gurion, Esber and Morris are ALL Israeli. This is NOT the Palestinian version.
99% of UA-cam vids are crap. Amateurish clickbait garbage. Your vids are not. They are very good. Your narration is professional, well spoken, and informed. Good looking out.
You're presentation is great. I usually agree with all your podcasts and find them accurate and interesting.
I just need to correct a few points.
I think you've colored the facts with a western outlook.
And some are misinformed entirely.
Saying it's occupied is an Arab/Russian invention.
There was absolutely no need to give anything back accordingto international laws. The only thing the arabs want is a Jewish free Israel under their rule.
And Arafat ימ"ש is recorded saying we can lie to Israel and to the West to achieve our goals. He actually rejected agreements that gave them loads of territory and autonomy. The biggest obstruction to piece are the Arabs because they don't want piece they want to rule the whole world.
They are religious fanatics, racist, and believe only in sharia law. You can't handle them with talking and giving away, in the Arab world they consider you a joke.
They only understand strength.
At the end of our prayers 3 times a day one of the last things we say is what the children in Shushan told Haman:
עוצו עיצה ותופר דברו דבר ולא יקום כי עמנו ק-ל
"They can plan plans and talk talks but nothing will be fullfilled because G-D is with us."
I believe this goes for the Israeli government as well.
G-D has saved us from our own stupidity.
The only reason Israel still exists is miraculous, and because G-D promised it and he wills it.
And for the Arabs that is one of the biggest threats. That they see G-D is not on their side.
You just describe the so called Israël actually Thank you for your support for palestine 🇵🇸
@naymatunc-rc6vs where's Palestine never heard of it!!
@@chanaselwyn9265the palestinian people Palestine wont dissapear just because you have no knowledge
On Arafat lying - you should know that in Islam it is perfectly fine to LIE to those you are negotiating with, if you need to to get the result you want ! For Islam the only thing that matters is the end result. As in CONVERT or SUBDUE or KILL all those you come across in order to spread Islam - an actual instruction in their 'book' !!! So do not be surprised at Arafat !
Well said!
A very informative video. Thank you.
Fantastic explanation video. thanks.

Nice one sided history of Gaza where it looks like Israel did nothing wrong in effecting Gazans and Palestinians in mass.
You might have thrown in the over 14 mass*acres that Israel is responsible for as well as the good ole occasional "mowing of the lawn" that Israel would gleefully do..
If you're going to portray the light in one way, maybe you can cover the full size of the case to make this acceptable as a good report of the facts. (I will see how long this post remains).
They are genocide supporters, what do you expect?
the post has remained?anything to say?
@@ashtonsequeira9757 Like the Entire Israeli Nation, still one sided. I guess you can do no wrong right?
Very educational 👍🇬🇧
I don't understand why this begins in 1967. In 1948, Arabs chose to leave Israel when the Arab countries told them to and they started the first war. Then those Arabs were part of Egypt (and the West Bank of Jordan) until 1967, but they still lived in refugee camps 20 years later. You don't think that's significant that their own people kept them as refugees? And calling themselves Palestinians only happened starting in the 1960s; that is important too. They were not a minority group of united people, they were and are Arabs. Skipping over the Egyptian wall on the southern side of Gaza also shows the blatant disregard of the Arabs living in Gaza by other Arabs. And not answering the question is pretty cowardly. You clearly showed who owns Gaza; Israel won it from Egypt in a war, and Egypt didn't want it back. It belongs to Israel.
That was the most succinct way to justify a land grab. Land ownership is not based on war gains…. It’s based on history alone.
so some Zionist settlers decided to come from Russia and Ukraine and take their Land
how nice of them was that
The weird thing is that Palestinians have "refugee" status for ever, from generation to generations, they got free money for ever from the EU, USA, UN and Arab nations, they used it for weapons and tunnels.
You forgot the ones that stayed and live in peace and have the same rights as anymore that lives in Israel. Remember it was Israel before Mohammad was even born
Remember there were Neanderthal before Jewish even exist. What a stupid argument 🤣
@@Lkk509no, your response is stupid.
@@stephen6851 No, your argument is stupid. You claim that just because someone lived somewhere 2,000 years ago, the claim to the land still exists today. Over the last 1,000 years till 1945, Jews have lived everywhere, except in the land we now know as Israel.
@@Lkk509 it’s not my argument. But there are a whole lot of people on this land claiming it belongs to them because they have lived there for some time. To compare it with Neanderthals is stupid.
@@stephen6851 No, they haven't been living there "for some time," but for centuries. Their great-grandfathers were born there, and the land on which their houses were built has been passed down through their families for generations. They bought apartments and houses that were taken from them overnight with the argument that "this was once Jewish land." If people here in Europe used such arguments to occupy countries, there would be total chaos, and the borders of ALL countries would shift or dissolve!
Excellent realistic presentation.
Excellent fact based vid. You will never get the terrorist supporting loons to admit it or support it, but credit to you for trying.

Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria
“ Jesus said - You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth” - these are the last documented words Jesus spoke to his disciples before He ascended into heaven (Acts 1:8).

1. God forbids idol worship.
2. Praying to saints or Mary or Jesus who are creations instead of praying only to God who is the creator is idol worship in Judaism and Islam and in some Christian sects.
3. Jews and Muslims love Christians by explaining that the messiah in Tanakh is a human biological descendant of the messiah king David through the messiah king Solomon meaning the messiah is not God and not a Trinity with God.
4. Jews and Muslims love Christians by explaining that the messiah in the Quran is a human who did not descend from the messiah king David because a person who has no biological father inherits no tribe in Judaism.
5. Jews and Muslims love Christians by explaining that in Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus said he did not die on the cross meaning no one sacrificed him and he explains that he is a human and he is not God.
6. Jews and Muslims love Christians by explaining that not all Christians believe that Jesus is God or that Jesus is a Trinity with God.

To correct you Israel was not afraid of a war in 1967 but wanted it, it launched a offensive war to gain territory and to at least use it as barging chip.

Lots of wrong and Violence on both sides. Most Palestinians would argue that it started with Islreali settlement in 1948-1949
There were no Israeli settlements in Gaza or the West Bank in 1948-1949. So that claim seems to imply that Israel should be completely destroyed and it’s all Palestinian land. Which… doesn’t solve this conflict or move towards peace 🤷♂️ ua-cam.com/video/_hr528dPuVQ/v-deo.htmlsi=1wPYQ8_UmHFyDyne

@@UNPACKEDthose israeli women really had a good english accent
not all and i can say that on the arabs in gaza west bank alot migrated during british mandate cuple hundred thousands
check your sources: where did all these Arabs came from after 1850 and again in high numbers after 1918?
@ronnyfokaha, its their ancestoral homeland, they were forced out by different occupiers thoughout history, then forced out of their host countries like egypt etc where they migrated to. So here they just came back. Current palis are from neighboring arab countries, why dont these arab countrirs take them in?
The lord Jesus owns gaza. There is nothing that is not his. Who he allows to dwell is a different story but as for who ows it. God does
A fairly balanced presentation, but I think the omission of 1400 years of Arab habitation in Gaza is a major flaw.
Gaza and the coast were occupied by the Philistines thousands of years ago. They were taken over and disappeared from history as Philistines, but many of the people stayed in the surrounding area.
Inland Palestinians were Semitic people from the area going back about 8-10 thousand years, from Philistines, Canaanites, and other local tribes of the times and then including migrant people from the immediate areas of north Egypt, Jordan, southern Lebanon, Syria.
Palestinians have a similar yet separate identity from other Arab countries. Such as the countries of Europe are similar but have their own history and cultures.
The Jews came onto the picture as a story of Abraham from Babylonia. They likely converted some local tribes to Judaism as Islam didn't come into existence until after Christianity of the 1st century.
Most of the Jewish left a couple thousand years ago, but those that stayed were treated well and lived without conflict and free to practice their religion. Palestine was a thriving, busy, farming, fishing and trade hub for 400 years under the Ottomans until WW1. Goods from all over the region were transported through the port, spices, goods, grains etc from Africa and Asia were brought to the area for trade and transport. Palestine itself was particularly known for olive products, wool, fine soaps, pottery, glass, and produce.
It was the hundreds of thousands of European refugees that immigrated into Palestine and with an army, forced 700,000 native Palestinians off their heritage farms, lands, villages around Jerusalem, the north, west bank etc.
The Israeli army was violent killing people and executing children and elders and burning homes. Nearly a million displaced people. This is called the "Nakba"
Some left to Jordan or Egypt but many went to Gaza.
You are not blaming israel for anything. This is propaganda
Unfortunately Israel's sin is merely original (=existing)
Thus report didn't give history justice. It is one sided claiming that the occupier is a victim.
Israel lives, thus Islam is false.🥰
Mind Begs the Question:
▪︎Islam forbids Usury/Interest Banking
▪︎Those who practice,impose Usury
▪︎To view Islam as Threat to Eliminate/Demonize,no?
Kudos for presenting such a frank look at the history. I appreciate that you acknowledge the wrongs and bad decisions of both sides, and that you show that neither side - Palestinian or Israeli - is monolithic in its view of the conflict. What comes across very clearly is that we have all been screwed by the fanatics on both sides, who somehow get the people in the middle to fight each other, when it is the fanatics on each side we should be working together to discredit and disempower.
Thank you, for this simple explanation (non-complicated). I started to overly judge Jews for the Gaza massacres but it is not that simple. Peace for Isreal and freedom for Palestine. ❤
