Interesting
Griffin, can you make a video about the opium wars?
this video made me bust
🇮🇱
The number of people actually being civil in the comments should be your sign that you did an absolutely fantastic job.
I know right?
Yeeeaaahhh "civil"
As soon as I saw this video I had to check the comments
There are some points that are not correct because the European government doesn't want people to know about it because it is Most likely to be war crimes or Crimes against humanity so there Respected countries to keep Support Israel in there war crimes in Gaza against Civilians
0:10 In his book "The Population of Palestine", american demographer Justin McCarthy details the evolution of the population in the area from 1877 to 1915 by religious groups. In page 10, there is a table that shows the info by year. In 1877 there were 127k muslims, 2.2k christians and 0.38k jews. In 1915, there were 600k muslims, 40k jews and 80k christians.
By 1947, jews were 1/3 of the population. The jewish inmigration was accelerated by the zionist movement since the 1890s.
"i sure hope that the comment section in this video is respectful and peaceful"
I was thinking the exact same thing
😂
SAMEEE 😂😂😭😭@@Muffin.Creations
Israel should never be recreated after 70.
Glad we share the same brain
You know you did a good ass job when people from both sides are calling you biased lmfao
Mind Begs the Question:
- If Nazis escaped
- Embed in another Nation,Religion
- Rename their Political Movement
- Can't be recognized
- Can be recognized by Matching Policies
- Starvation,Death Camps,Gas Chambers/White Phosphorus,Pogroms,Ethnic Cleansing,etc?
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings sir this is a youtube comment section
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Nazis cant be jews because most jews who founded israel would have recognised them and they were hunted down by mossad agents
The basis of nazism was to hate the jews
You can recognise a nazi just ask him what do you think about them jews??
I think youre talking about china putting muslims in camps up in tibet because prior to october 7 palestines in gaza lived their lives and west bank is pretty much a paradise compared to anything in SYRIA..
@@hellotheretherealby youtube Past records it will pass
Just because the brits occupied it doesnt mean there were no indigenous people . Britain illegally occupied Palestine and committed horrific atrocities to the Palestinian people. And then they brought jews from Europe because the Europeans couldn’t live peacefully and accept Jews they decided to kick all of them out and pass the guilt to Palestinians for what has happened to the jews it’s Palestineans who are treating jews so unfairly ! Palestinians were killed and murdered on the hands of militarized jew men which the British army armed to fight the Palestinians! Millions of Palestinians we’re slaughtered women men children old and young . Palestinian lands and homes were taken under the watch of the British army that was helping militarize the Jews to attack Palestinians and kill them ! And drive them of their land .
Good you are still there in These Times we need the armchair historian thx and merry xmas
It's crazy how many conflicts in the past century are fully or at least partially from the treaties at the end of WW1.
Pretty much all of them
The war to end all wars.
More like the war that caused all of today's modern conflicts
It’s almost like world wars are really important
@@extantfellow46 all because one ass hole from Serbia shot some other ass hole from a country that doesn't even exist anymore.
@@extantfellow46 instead of being trhe war to end all wars, it was the war to fuel all other wars
Very balanced and informative video. Well done.
@@samuraipenguin8120then would you mind explaining “every single detail?”
I am disappointed when Russia was invading Ukraine everyone was making videos covering Russian war crimes every single week and it took them this long to make a single video covering the topic it's like people are afraid to cover Israeli war crimes.
Not even sort of.
@@magma9000 That's because Russia is a global superpower while Israel is a tiny state. I don't know if this sounds offensive, but alot of people just don't care about it, because it doesn't effect them.

- If a States policies are
- Starvation,Death Camps,Gassing/White Phosphorus,Pogroms,Ethnic Cleansing,etc
- Has the right to exist?
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeingsyes because a states right to exist is based on monopoly of violence
Great video. Mistake though at 2:30, the mandate for Palestine included Jordan as well... Only later were they spilt off as a separate entity and independent.
reason why the West Bank got its name
Thank you for the correction!
Which makes one wonder why it was called Palestine and not Cisjordan... would've made a lot more sense...
@@occam7382Cisjordan wouldn't have made any sense. Cis is latin for "on this side of", and considering the West Bank lies within Israel's borders, it would not be "on this side of Jordan". What *would* make sense, if we're so inclined to use latin prefixes in the naming of modern territories, would be Cisisraeli Jordan
so the arabs did get their own state (it's called jordan)
Always nice to see a new AH episode popping up. I am amazing by the sheer amount of content you guys are able to produce. Keep up the great work AH and team.

You make a great work, too.
Very informative and very well made video that impartially describes both perspectives on the whole conflict. You definitely deserve more views!
The impartiality is quite a good illusion. Some damning facts are mentioned about both parties to the conflict, not giving the viewer the nagging feeling that what they're watching is propaganda. However, when there were some critical omissions that couldn't be merely a honest mistake (or just for the sake of brevity), they were always removing causes to the actions of Israel, e.g. that the militias Irgun and Lehi were only formed after 1929 Palestine riots that saw a lot of Arab violence against Jews.
Judging by positive feedback, it is quite clear that the subversion was quite efficient.
Just because the brits occupied it doesnt mean there were no indigenous people . Britain illegally occupied Palestine and committed horrific atrocities to the Palestinian people. And then they brought jews from Europe because the Europeans couldn’t live peacefully and accept Jews they decided to kick all of them out and pass the guilt to Palestinians for what has happened to the jews it’s Palestineans who are treating jews so unfairly !

I'm so glad this comment section is full of people with the ability to communicate in function ways like actual adults should, regardless of your standing on the conflict, this video is INCREDIBLY well made and grounded in fact (like always) and im so glad it is civil down here
Hear, hear! I am always impressed by his ability to discuss something reasonably and give facts instead of opinions. Always well balanced, gives both sides accounts and lets you form your own thoughts.
1st why does arabs have to pay for what european whited did to european juice? 2nd why didnt u mention , how the P arabs gave nice hospitality to juice when they were getting persecuted by european white christians? 3rd why didnt u mention , how the juice who came from europe after living in the hospitality of P arabs took over the house of P arabs and fueled the war which caused NAKBA? Arabs didnt want to start the war , rather they were fueled to.
cringe
@@Castrate-wdym you kid
I disagree. I find the video isn't that good as you say ,because
did he mention the jewish Nakbar? Did he say what happend on 7 Oktober?
Did he say that Palestine didn't recognise Israel?
Did he say that Hamas is stealing the aid and uses it for war against Israel?
Did he say that the Palestinian Leader in the 1930er was a friend of Hitler?
Why didn't he mention the Iran that is responsible for the wars in the middle east?
For me the videos was to short and it only scrapped the surface of the topic. Which leads to dangers half knowledge.
Thanks for making this video. It helps to provide context for ongoing situation in Israel & Gaza without being too overwhelming. I wish for peace in both Israel and Palestine, and hopefully they can co-exist peacefully in long run.
You are right.
I won't be shocked if IDF bots will find something to get offended about
@@user-op8fg3ny3jZionist, Fatah and Hamas bots / shills will all be pissed with what I am saying anyway, since none of them wants a two state solution.

Thank you armchair historian. Always excellent content
DO NOT SORT TO "NEWEST"
Edit: and do not scroll down on the replies.
My days ruined 😭😭😭😭
Jesus, the comments are *carcinogenic* . Some are claiming it’s biased toward Israel, some say biased against Israel.
Forewarned, I had to try. I've seen some p*** ad in comments, plenty of hostility, etc.
I see fairly strong opinions there, but about a third of the newest comments is pretty factual.
Depending on your own bias, you can choose which third, I suppose.
I checked, it’s not bad. People are having simple discussions and are discussing who’s truly at fault.
Seems like the Zionists / Prior leaders decided how it all became split apart.
The Jewish people didn’t pick it and the people already there didn’t pick it, it was the fault of the zionists wanting to go back to their ancient homeland
@@Leyirs the Zionists were willing to accept the Peel commission and the 1947 borders, both without Jerusalem or any of the historical sites or any historical cities like Hebron, which a massacre took place in 1929 killing 67 and forcing the others to leave. I feel like the Zionist had more of a “We were fine with the original border but since we got this land after the war, we’ll keep it” mentality. Things like the nakba are not justifiable but inevitable as wars cause displacement, especially if the one who started the war loose.
Very brave of you guys to actually cover this topic!!
Why topic like this always gets you know, why people get scared of talking about these topics?
It's not like they lied.
@@Neopolitan2024 Well, even if you tell what is actually happening based on history. People tend to cope and malding for what they believe. Thats where the fire was lit, we didnt want that do we?
@@Neopolitan2024lots of bigots when it comes to this topic, they label you as zionist and israel supporters when people point out that there are terrorist attacks at israel civilians as well
@@Neopolitan2024Because Israel supporters are allergic to the truth. The same people that killed/attempted to kill (depending on your religion) Jesus.
Amazing video! I knew a lot of this already but I did learn some new things. He always does a fantastic job of being evenhanded when reporting on any subject and this one is a very difficult subject to tackle. Kudos!
I wish he was. The chronology shows some bias. The mention of Jewish militias Irgun and Lehi (without even mentioning Haganah) before mentioning any Arab violence? And that's not the only problem with this video. Anyway, I'd bet on some off-screen researcher having hidden agenda, rather than Griffin himself.
I agree with you. On this video make it look the Jews are guilty. 1:20 He said that the jews came and took there Land Like they stealed it ,but in reality the jews bought the land from large arab landowners.
@@vlastimil-furst I agree this videos was framed pro-palestine or more anti-jewish.
Nice video please keep up the good work 👍
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR A LOOOOONG TIME!!!!!
I was so happy that there is a video on this topic.
Then I got disillusioned about the whole Armchair Historian channel, sadly.
Too much bias against Israel, mostly in leaving out the parts that aren't exactly flattering to the Palestinians.
Whoever did the research followed some agenda.
@@vlastimil-furst Although i support Palestine with a passion, i think its important to be unbiased
@@KedrickRIX Agreed. It should be our opinions that differ, not our facts. Especially historians should aim for historical accuracy, not some agenda.
Just because the brits occupied it doesnt mean there were no indigenous people . Britain illegally occupied Palestine and committed horrific atrocities to the Palestinian people. And then they brought jews from Europe because the Europeans couldn’t live peacefully and accept Jews they decided to kick all of them out and pass the guilt to Palestinians for what has happened to the jews it’s Palestineans who are treating jews so unfairly !

It's crazy how in depth the video is. It might have benefited from a longer run time to avoid speed running. Yet, with a modest 15 minutes, we got a thorough analysis of the history of Israel-Palestine via the borders. (Goes to show how important geography is when learning history.)
not really, it failed to cover or show true facts, context, and just generally cover around 70% of the things he mentioned, he downplayed the 1973 yom kipur war, failed to establish multiple facts like Israeli self defense throughout the conflict and palestinian militias causing the collapse of lebanon and a civil war in jordan
bruh its not even 20 minutes, do your own research, his videos are good but very over simplified and it lacks a lot of context that makes the Israeli side look a lot worse
@@thehaus6998 It honestly seems like you are speaking from a place a bias. In any case, please feel free to tell me which important facts you feel were omitted entirely.
@@samuraipenguin8120 "Make the Israeli side look a lot worse?" Lol. Sorry buddy. But that's the geopolitical reality. It's a reality worsened by the fact that Israel is so much more powerful than any of its foes.
And there is no Israeli or Palestinian side. People are not a monolith.
At last you spreaded a lie by telling hamas captured gaza
Hamas won the palastinian election
they were forced to fight because isreal together with Plo tried to stab in there back & capture the power again
I actually learned a lot of the pre 1950 state and the different solutions, that were proposed. Thanks for helping me better understand this subject.
Try to unlearn it please, and read e.g. Wikipedia instead. There were serious flaws in the chronology. Irgun and Lehi are mentioned as if they initiated the violence without anything to radicalize them, like events of 1929. There is more bias like this, supporting pro-Palestinian view on causality. No idea if it was a rogue researcher or team effort, but I lost faith in this channel.
@@vlastimil-furst LOL but isn't wikipedia an unreliable source?
@@vlastimil-furst and read Wikipedia instead... welp yeah all you need to know
@@user-ul3op3vh2y Of course it's better to go to the source material, books and papers. Clearly, the video quotes some, however its script either fails to understand the causality or intentionally misleads us.
I've read more than just Wikipedia on this conflict. I am well aware of some dark past of Israel's army, too. I suppose I also have some narrative to the story that is wrong somewhere. But I don't state it as the only truth.

Fun fact.
In 1903, the British Uganda Programme proposed Uganda as a Homeland for the Jewish people.
Still, « land w/out people for a ppl w/out land » means the gên0cide would‘ve taken place in Uganda.
Also, the Polish government before it's German occupation thought about moving it's increasing Jewish population to Madagascar and later, in 1940, Nazi Germany suggested moving the entire Jewish population to Madagascar. It was declined as Madagascar was a French colony.
@@sarychm6061 naah we're pretty chill down here did you know in kenya (Uganda's neighbour) they mashed 42 different etnicities together and we are chill I mean 1903 was a long time ago since we got the brits doing their thing here we would have just lived in like cool guess we have hannukah at some point ....not everyone is a monster in this world mate...
@@cleef990 so are you saying that Palestinians are monsters? In what world is it okay to move to someone else’s land and establish it as yours? Your ancestors are victims of colonialism and yet you support it? It seems like wisdom is chasing after you but you’re running faster. Akili kama matako ya mbuuzi
@@beenie719 Pretty dumb thinking the losers in multiple wars get to decide the terms, get real son. How about we give it back to the Ottomans or maybe Italy? No such thing as Palestine. I couldn't care less about Israel, use some logic.

DONT GO TO NEWEST I REPEAT DONT GO TO NEWEST
Love this video, as it provides the most unbiased coverage of the conflict I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. Somethings I would’ve like to see/hear more about was the troop composition during the wars (e.g.: the 1948 war, where both sides were actually evenly matched in terms of composition). Additionally, it might be worth mentioning the role of soviet/western influence throughout the years of this conflict.
Adding on here, I would have liked to hear more about the Oslo accords, as the standing PM at that time, Yitzhak Rabin, was assassinated not even a year after its proposal by a zionist. Following his death, Netanyahu succeeded him, a man who believes that Hitler was pressured in creating the Holocaust due to the influence of some Arabs. You can imagine how well he treated the Palestinians when he was (and is still) in power.
Exactly, it is one of the very very few unbiased videos
The Soviets had no role. The decisive role was for Britain, and after World War II, the role was taken by the USA and its support for Zionism.
Yes, there are many shortcomings in the video, and making the video short is a little annoying. There are many important topics that were shortened or ignored, such as the reaction of the Palestinian people after Oslo, the two Palestinian intifadas, the founding of Hamas, and the condition of the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and those who remain of them in Israel. I wish I had mentioned them.
Sorry but this video was biased in its many omissions. He skipped over a lot, not just the Palestine riots of 1929 which caused the Irgun and Lehi to be formed. He also skipped over the fact that the straights of Tiran and Suez canal were closed to Israeli shipping, and the Egyptians and Syrians were amassing troops on Israel's border, when Israel's Airforce did a "pre-emptive attack"in 1967. The fact that it was the British who brought the idea to the Zionists World congress for the Balfour declaration only after the communists took over Russia because they had faulty intelligence that the communists were ran by Jews, (that was the Mensheviks who lost to the Bolsheviks who were primarily not Jewish), and they thought by offering the Jews a state it would sway communist Russia to stay allied with the UK in WW1. It was also the UK and France who masterminded and convinced Israel to join them in the "Suez Crisis" a war to get back control over the Suez canal that Egypt had nationalized from British and French private companies. "Nasser's response was the nationalization of the Suez Canal. On 26 July, in a speech in Alexandria, Nasser gave a riposte to Dulles. During his speech he deliberately pronounced the name of Ferdinand de Lesseps, the builder of the canal, a code-word for Egyptian forces to seize control of the canal and implement its nationalization.[108] He announced that the Nationalization Law had been published, that all assets of the Suez Canal Company had been frozen, and that stockholders would be paid the price of their shares according to the day's closing price on the Paris Stock Exchange.[109] That same day, Egypt closed the canal to Israeli shipping.[110] Egypt also closed the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping, and blockaded the Gulf of Aqaba, in contravention of the Constantinople Convention of 1888. Many argued that this was also a violation of the 1949 Armistice Agreements.[111][112]" He also stated that Israel had violated United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181, when it was the Arab armies, and Palestinian Fedayeen who attacked Israel 1st violating 181. When Israel declared independence it was only in the areas they controlled already, after they were attacked all that of course went out the window, because Israel took over the areas it had won, and Egypt and Jordan took over the areas they had won in Palestine.....181 specifically called for the creation of both a Jewish and Arab Palestinian state, however Egypt occupied Gaza, and Jordan occupied the West Bank.

I used to watch your content long time ago and I always was facinated by the amount of details you dive into but for this video I can't help but notice that you didn't give any details on the horrible stuff that happened leading to the nakba and also you skipped a lot of other stuff regarding the jewish migration hope you cover these matters more on other videos because I feel like you didn't give this subject the coverage that it need
I respect you and your content and hope you keep on giving more and more infos
"what is Jerusalem really worth?"
"Nothing. Everything."
You already know your gonna learn someing new when the Armchair Historian posts
Something you'd do yourself a favor if you unlearned (or studied from raw facts and with less narrative).

He bent the hisstory the way he liked it. You could say he lied. He didn't mention the jewish Nakbar didn't He?
This is the best war/historic channel on UA-cam. I've never seen this high quality videos with this much objective view of the topics he depicts
There is a latin american channel called La Historia como NO te la contaron (History as they DIDN'T teach you) that has a playlist on the War of the Pacific (1879-1884, 🇨🇱vs🇧🇴🇵🇪) that is the best series I've ever seen about military history in UA-cam, about any conflict ever. It is neutral, detailed and fun. Go and take a look.
@@Vichikuma i don't understand Spanish tho
@@vergil-am Yeah the one thing they could've made better is to add writen english subs.
They also have an excellent playlist on the fall of the Incan Empire. As a chilean historian myself, I binge watched it las night and I didn't know a lot of details mentioned in it.
Settle down, they cant even pronounce names and places correctly half the time.
War graphics also is really great for wars and politics, they also cover some history
While they have stock footage half the time, it actually means you can listen and do other stuff at the same time (like a podcast)
This is a well-balanced video, which given the subject matter is quite impressive. Also impressive is your ability to largely explain a 100+ year conflict in just 16 minutes, pushing back against some of the more unscholarly and derogatory positions in the process.

Could you make a video about the Second Italo Ethiopian war, and the Ethiopian "Arbegnoch" resistance that contained the fight against the Italians until Ethiopia was liberated?
Well organized and presented. A few remarks, if I may:
1. There was some kind of negotiation and agreement between the Jews and Arabs in the form of the Faisal-Weizmann agreement in 1919 (although some claim that it wasn't really serious).
2. The war of 1948 began actually on November 30th 1947, right after the vote on the partition plan in the UN. It started as a civil war in Palestine, and after the state of Israel was established (in May 1948) it expanded also to war with the Arab countries in the region.
another nitpick I would add is that zionism is in fact a colonial venture, regardless of how people felt regarding their safety before and after Nazism in Europe. the leaders of zionism, reformed zionism, their connections, their documented pledges and negotiations undisputedly display zionism as a colonial project seeking the Palestinian territory in order to build the foundations of a jewish state. the history of the JNF the largest owner of land in Israel would also confirm this. the purchase of land, labour and housing segregation and discrimination was strategically done to take over the territory rather than emigrate and settle in it.

Quite certainly not by the hands of Muslims, it was pro-Palestinian enough. There could still be some unhinged ultraorthodox Jew out there, some of them are quite bonkers.

reread the comments.. This video pretends to be neutral and people don't even notice..
@@annajp3363looking back on this, both Palestine and Israel supporters are arguing that the video is biased to the other side. I feel like it leaves out facts that are needed to better understand the conflict, but people see this as bias rather than just trying to make the video shorter or by mistake.
Minor nit-pick: if it were me, I would have also mentioned that after Israel's independence, thousands of Jews from Arab countries were forced or pressured to immigrate to Israel.
Excellent job overall, though! I'm sure it took a lot of work to get the script as neutral, unbiased, and factual as possible.
I would’ve also mentioned how to end the Great Arab Revolt, the British agreed to greatly curtail Jewish immigration, leading to thousands of Jews being turned away during World War 2 when they were fleeing the Holocaust. The fact the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem at the time, Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, collaborated with Hitler during World War 2 has also not been forgotten.
I’d have also mentioned Haj Amin al-Husseini’s meetings with Hitler and their agreed-upon plan to genocide middle eastern Jews, but that’s just me. You left out a lot of important information. As a fan of your channel I’m disappointed.
he missed a lot of things hence why this is a horrible subject as a whole, you can't change anyone's minds because nobody knows the Jewish side in depth
@@stevenlewis4556 about the Mufti, his collaboration had no serious effect on the region. Because the Germans and Italians were too far away to do anything. And Iraq siding with Axis is much more of a geopolitical than religious affair. Also there are many muslim clerics who helped the jews in their time of need. Nothing can justify the murder of millions of people jewish or arabs

What "both sides" are those? Seems clear enough to me:
Everything was peaceful before certain people decided it was their right to displace those who were already living there, because the Invisible Man in the Sky told them it was theirs.
And here we are, today. Is anyone surprised?
You can understand a conflict from both sides and still support one side. Hamas wasn’t justified under any circumstances on Oct 7. Civilians get killed in air campaigns, that’s a fact of war since 1918. There is also no way to tell the difference between a terrorist and a civilian in the Gaza Strip since footage released by Hamas shows them in civilian garb.

Families homeless, children dead, a famine coming... And you're ok with this. Oh, boy. I guess _"Never again"_ means _"Never again unless WE do it."_
Understanding history is great but there comes a point when the history is no longer relevant. That point was passed a long time ago. Most of the population of Israel was born in Israel. That means they're no longer participating in the zionist plot. They're simply defending their home.

You did a great job covering a lot of ground in a short amount of time. But there's one crucial point I need to correct you on:
At 1:35, you say around 1919 that Jews "began to arrive and steadily dispossess many 'Palestinians' from their homes." Most Jews who arrived between the 1800s-1940s acquired homes through legal land purchases from mostly Arab landowners, not through dispossession of existing populations. Conversely, Jews were often those who were dispossessed from their homes pre-1948 in Gaza, Jenin, Hebron, etc., during Arab uprisings, such as the 1929 Palestine Riots and in the 1936-1939 Arab revolts that you reference.
Exactly! This video pretends to be neutral and people don't even notice..
Ya I'm annoyed and confused about some things he omitted and some things he got wrong. 1) The Arabs got the British to restrict Jewish Immigration to the area. 2) Jewish people bought the land they moved to. 3) The Palestinians were going to be given the "fertile" land, not the other way around. 4) Arafat said no to every single offer of a 2 state solution.
Is the Sursock Purchases
One of them?
@@vladimiraehben2308 I don't think either side mentions those purchases since it is pretty irrelevant. The Arabs were not the owners of the land, they were renting, and the new Jewish owners compensated some of them even they had no obligation to.

Fair point
Wait didn’t they call the Palestinians “local Arabs” before 1960 or 1980?
they were called arabs of palestine before the 1960, there was a call for an arab state
then time passes and concepts evolve
@GREENMASTER They did. In fact the term “Palestinian” was not generally used to refer to Arabs. Many Jews even identified as Palestinian. For example, the newspaper “The Palestine Post” was actually a Jewish newspaper.
As mentioned, Palestine is a name given to the region. Theres Arab Palestinians, Jewish Palestinians, and Palestinians from other ethnic groups.

@@animeXcaso In Islam, they define people as;

3) Your Ethnicity.
In this case, 3) would be Palestinian. The British and partially the UN, didn’t consider anyone anything other than Arab Ethnicity. Therefore the West in large part never acknowledged the Palestinian Ethnicity until the PLO attacked the Munich Olympics in 1972.
This is because no one truly asked the Palestinians what they thought.

You forgot to mention the 2 state solution by ehud olmert in 2006
I think this video misses crucial details. For example the fact that there were already jewish populations in the Middle-Rast and Palestine, even European jews (Ashkenazi) that settled on the invitation of the Ottoman Empire. Jews were treated better under the Ottomans than Medieval and early modern Europe, but were still second rate citizens and usually invited because they had a lot of capital and thus were interesting as a source for taxation and skilled workers. Besides this Jews have over the millenia always tried to move back to what is Palestine. Their population there was largely eradicated due to the catholic crusades in the region. Also British mandate palestine also included Jordan, which radical zionists like that of Irgun tried to claim as Israel (you can even see it in their logo). Besides this Arabs in the region although protesting their migration to the region sold land to the jews often voluntarily. They even asked the british to ban the sale of land to the jews but would still sell it. During that time there were also conflicts that flared up between both groups woth killings as a result. The British tried also to propose a one-state solution in which both groups would enjoy equal rights and religious protection, but the Muslim Arabs rejected all proposals and even invitations to help organise and contribute to the shaping of a political state in Palestine by the British.
for all these details and more, this video is not as neutral as they say

@@husseinshuwaikh9587 I have to share my country with groups of immigrants. My country has accepted from 2010 to 2022 2.144.609 immigrants, while having 1.427.802 emigrants (numbers are from statbel, statistics agency of Belgium). The country is around 11 million people. Depending on the ethnic make-up of the people immigrating and emigrating (which I cannot find), this basically means that my country is no longer culturally or ethnically 'pure' as some would say. I as a Belgian and many other Western Europeans have to accept that. I cannot see why we should have this standard apply to us Europeans, while not applying it to other cultures as well. Sure I wish there was less migration in my own country and I do sympathize with the Palestinians that have been forced out of their homes by Israeli's. The last thing I'm saying is that Israel or Israeli's are innocent. But if we Europeans are expected to just accept immigration from cultures and ethnicities different from our own and sometimes quite hostile to our own, it'd be pure hypocrisy to not have this standard being applied to the rest of the world. I understand in the Islamic world this does not apply, but in Europe this is what our political leaders, the media and many who do have a clear voice in society seem to expect from their population. In my opinion, it is unfair to expect this from its own population while treating foreigners with a different set of standards.

It’s critical to mention that there were and always have been Jews in the holy land, including after the expulsion by Rome. The idea that all Jews left what is modern day Israel is fan faction concocted by evangelical Christians and their interpretation of biblical text. And for some reason the world took this fan fiction and ran with it.
Many Jews living in this region purchased large swaths of land from the Ottomans, who needed to fund their army during WWI and previous conflicts. So it’s hardly this scenario of Jews came in and just dispossessed all Palestinians and that all Jews are living on land that previously belonged to Palestinians. That is false.
