The truth is unpleasant for those who say Arabs are palastinian and not integrated into Israel. Obviously a lie and hated by the radical terrorists they face. My respect for Israel and the Arab Israeli citizens who support their country.
True the other countries that hate israel have used them as cannon fodder to fight wars because they cant fight israel.. its really sad to see the suffering here and the brain washing that has happened
I served in the Israeli army alongside Muslim Arabs and Circassians, Arab Christians, Aramaen Christians, Druze, religious and secular Judeans. Israel is the home of all of her citizens. All of her citizens should defend Israel.
If I was a young man and lived in Israel I would be proud to serve the land of Israel and would never discriminate against a fellow Jew because of his ancestry never
Good for you. This is a good view for you to have. It is good not to be judgmental to others or be hateful to others , but to live doing good and kind towards all. God bless you.
My simple advise to an Arab serving in Israel army is that you must not conspire with the enemy of Israel and always obey the order.don't be a spy to the enemy because the Israeli army has a lot of information satellite gadget to monitor your movement and whatever you do. israel has roughly 40,000 volunteers all around the world that is ready to fight for their existence.
@@techcanyon411 most arabs that conspire in the Israeli army are from outside of Israel. but many here are vary loyal, I always see Bedouin celebrating with us in the Israel Independence Day.
Love from Bulgaria, which during the Second World War was the only country in Europe that saved its Jews and did not allow them to be deported to the concentration camps. I am proud that my country did this heroic act.

That's the core problem of the whole world, we stand by flags and lines on a map that mean nothing but control, power over others and greed. The Bible, Quran, Buddhist writings, Hindu, seek and all other religious texts only mention at best certain areas, there are no maps and borders in these teachings. Charlie Chaplin=the good Earth can provide for everyone, until we wipe the slate clean of borders and have a very difficult and painful time of upheaval and designing a new equal world the human race will never be at peace.
The happiest Arabs I ever met were those who recognized the Jewish state, Israel, renounced hate, and thrived in Israel. There are many thousands but the press ignores them instead focusing on the murder driven Islamist facists.
Israeli Army is based on meritocracy unlike Arab armies where your tribe, religious sect and social status determines whether you would be General or a boot polisher to the General. No wonder they lose all wars.
Its why the only real armies in the middle east are Turkey, Isreal and Iran. Just look at the Iran-Iraq war. Saddam got weapons from US and USSR, had more tanks and jets but still lost to outdated and second hand american weapons used by the outnumber/out gunned Iranians. Arab armies have cultural and historical reasons for being as they are.
Yeah meritocracy that's why Singapore and Israel are almost similar when it comes to economic and military performances, never underestimate small countries LOL.
For regular Jewish Israelis, enlisting to the IDF is taken for granted, but for young Arabs it's 10 times harder which is why it's 10 times more courageous, I applaud them.

It's a cultural thing. Bedouins do it because they're patriotic. Christians do it because they see their brothers in Syria, Iraq and Egypt being slaughtered by Muslims. Druze are drafted and they're more patriotic than a lot of Jews. I'm in the Army and these reports don't take into consideration the different groups within the Arab community. Everyone isn't simply "Arab". There are Druze, Bedouins, Arab Muslims and Christians (many Christians don't identify as Arab). That plays into it more than anything. But I've never heard of an Arab Muslim, who is not a Bedouin, enlist in the Army. Also, not being in the army is looked down upon in Israel. Being in the army helps with college and civilian benefits. Arabs know this so they join, this is their country too.

Then major hassan was ordered to Iraq as a psychologist. He tried to get out of the army. The army said no. Go to Iraq or go to jail.

Our country of Iraq had more religous freedom, better Jobs, better health care, free educations and no crime compare to your stolen land before your terrorist army came in to Iraq. The land of the "free" is the real shiethole where you open your mouths to much, and little knowledge
marhaba from your neighbor! native Israeli :) people like that politician you saw in the video, suffer a problem from education, what they learn about Jews as schoolchildren. School doesn't really emphasize that Arabs & Jews are from same historic roots, with same abjad root words in language (in Hebrew/Aramaic/Arabic). Both our peoples, among others like Kurds & Arameans & Assyrians, have experienced much of the same scenarios through history - whether Ottoman empire, Babylonian empire, or Assyrian empire. These facts are not talked about, not in most Arab communities and not even on mainstream international news like CNN or Sky. In Israel, we celebrate both Hebrew culture, and Arab culture, in the streets, and in the mainstream popular culture. And even old people in the street, sitting on the sidewalk, always playing backgammon with their friends - and its always mizrahi Jews & Arabs playing together. There are some division inciting politicians like that guy you saw in the video, saying emotion-changing rhetoric to manipulate people, but he can't fool everyone. We mostly have Arab Israeli idf volunteers because they feel part of our people, and definitely part of our country. These are both Druze & Christian & Muslim Arabs. I am proud to be Israeli even more because I see Arab individuals as *no difference* to how I see Jew individuals - meaning that my environment has resulted in me thinking this way. but even more proud than that, when Arab brothers in the idf protect us, Jews. Equally protecting us as much as we protect them. Every one of those soldiers are 100% Israeli. When bombs drops from the sky, its both on their homes and on our homes. And we often share an apartment block building together anyway! and I can bet money that even in neighborhoods with racist Israelis (I'm sure there's some racists in every country), most of them will agree with everything I just said.
Socialization is an ignored aspect of military service. Israelis, more than most nations, are probably more aware since it incorporates larger swaths of women. Incorporating other groups voluntarily can be a force multiplier for society. Working as a team and taking responsibility for the team and the nation elevates the spirit and produces leaders. Those who stubbornly stand outside and watch will be sorely disappointed when the world changes before their eyes as it already is passing them by.
These young men are to be congratulated rather than condemned. They are fighting for the survival of their country, the only nation in the region that gives them rights of citizenship, including voting, having their own members in the knesset and living at a higher standard of living than all of their neighbors.
@@luisvilla799how are arab citizens 2nd class citizens? They have the same rights and are treated as equal. Sure there is an incident with cops here and there, but thats the same in america with police and black people isnt it?😂
This is smart thinking on behalf of those young arabs. Israel is the only democratic state in the region with enormous growth opportunities in hi tech. the life of any arab country would improve 1000 times if it were occupied by Israel.
Conditions would improve in syria 100x more had israel never existed. And not thanks. We're happy with Kuwait, qatar, UAE, Saudi arabia, oman, jordan, lebanon, egypt, Algeria and tunisia. Even Iraq is fairly peaceful now. All of the states that I mentioned are modern states, some developed and some not. But the conditions are better or on par with israel.
If the Arabs would have spent their time and energy to build up their society instead of teaching their childish hate every Jew and aim at killing them, their future would be brighter. Israel loves life and their children as much as Arabs love death and feel honored when their children commit suicide in order to kill Jews. And by the way, where do they find so many virgins (72) to give to each terrorist
@skrigged9270 Utter nonsense. Lebanon is an economic catastrophe, Egypt remains miserably poor and decrepit. They are totally worse off than prosperous Israel. The rich Arab states like Qatar are only rich because of oil gave them a big boost, but they are still far less advanced technologically than Israel.
in Islam you protect the country you live in, no matter who you have to fight against. it's not that if you can't beat em join em, Muslims have more loyalty to their country.
How could they be descendants of "Palestinians who remained in Israel in 1948"? Arabs did not co-opt this name until the 1960s. In 1948, the Arabs considered themselves Arab, muslim (or Christian), Syrian, or [clan name].
After the defeat of Bar Kokhba (132-135 CE) the Roman Emperor Hadrian was determined to wipe out the identity of Israel-Judah-Judea, and renamed it Syria Palaestina. Until that time the area had been called "province of Judea" (Roman Judea) by the Romans.
They serve with us because our beloved young cousins understood who we are and What we stands for. We will bless them as the try to help and assimilate with us. Shalom aleichem. More power to the mighty GOD’s soldiers on earth - IDF. Todah rabah.
Had it been IDF start recruiting world wide i would be one of them to join , this army personnel has a lot of discipline in many areas in the military realms.
They do recruit world wide. There are Jews who come to serve in IDF from all over the world. Many American Jews serve there instead of our military and many others have served in both.
That was an absolutely wonderful story... It has to take lots & lots of courage... Very proud & honored by those young Arabs... Arab, if you're reading..... You don't have to feel bad about it... my people delt with the same issue when they fought Germany & Italy..and England, and the civil war... You fight for good or evil not for the color of your skin.. You're doing the right thing by helping Israel....
Ruben de Groot .....what do you know of occupation? Israel belongs to the Jews not the Arabs squatting there. The Arabs were offered relocation to their mother country in 1947, very few took it. Jews built the sand and rock into what it is now not the Arabs. Arabs are the real occupiers and they can still move. But who in the Muslim countries want them? NO ONE.
See Canon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_242 this is what I know of occupation. The opinion of the only authority of the subject. The one israeli's refer to, to claim its the institution that founded their nation.
Anthony Alger"If foreigners can live there peacefully & civilly then they're supposed to be treated just like a native Israelite... The problem is right now they're not acting very civil.... " Maybe theyre not acting "civil" because they were deported in 48 by your "moral superior army", and couldnt return to their villages, because they were turned into ashes.
Ruben de Groot ... they were never supposed to control the region permanently... The only reason they were there in the first place was because they murdered, slaughtered, kidnapped, raped, and enslaved the Israelite population... Now its time to reverse that & restore Israel back to the rightful owners...

You need to understand Israel is a nation a country Arabs and Jews and Christian are religion There is no connection They all fight for their country And I am proud of all of them God bless them all Palestine give your neighbours a chance to help you Do it for the future generation
Short answer: Life is just better in Israel. Minorities are treated well and enjoy more basic rights which is something you'd never see in the mainstream media.
There’s a lot of people that are so all about supporting Hamas that they think that Arabs joining the IDF is a draft by force, but that’s not true. They’re all volunteers whether you’re a Muslim or Christian or any other religion, you have that right to enlist. While every other Jew is conscripted into the IDF. Muslims, Christians, many other religions volunteer. I remember this one former IDF veteran speaking about when he was a child growing up he was conflicted between whose side he’s really on. Is he in Israeli? Is he a Palestinian? Either way he asked the group of Arabs wearing the IDF equipment asking why do you fight for Israel? And they responded with a laugh saying this is our home. Our home is under attack. We must defend it and our families and friends from terrorists trying to destroy our home. Unlike Hamas that literally wants to do serious harm they don’t care who they hit. Literally it’s not just you know they’re hatred for Jews. In fact anyone they don’t care for human rights. In most cases, a lot of people don’t seem to pay attention this button, all the rocket attacks that it happened whether it’s the past or not many of them have claimed the lives of Muslims especially those living in Israel. That is why I get so frustrated every time I literally see the reports of celebrities people like the squad members in Congress supports Hamas
0:15 one thing she did not mention is that any one who would like to join the IDF gets a background check, even of you're obligated to join the IDF. anyone with a messy background will have a harder time joining, arab or not. its true most arabs have a hard time because most arabic families are nonsupporting or the IDF, hence, the IDF is much more cautious about them.

Ahmad and the likes of his keep their power as long as he can keep everyone divisive. these are the type of people who benefits from the conflict
It might possibly be that part of the reason why some Arabs join the IDF is the financial and other benefits that they can receive from serving currently or having served, for their future.
In Singapore there r Filipinos, Indonesians, Malaysians serving national service. They appreciate what they have in Singapore n r proud to be a Singapore citizen.
This is so beautiful. They are beautiful people. They are democracy for everyone. They live, protect and fight together. This is what happens when the children are taught not to hate by terrorist governments. The solution to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, live together, live equal.
People know, Jew , Arab , Christian, Druze, Circassian, Martian , all know that ISRAEL 🇮🇱 exists to benefit all the people, including Palestinians living in the land,,,,,,,, the true intentions are good, and the Palestinians never had so many benefits as before ,,,,,, with a bit of understanding and honesty life can be a paradise,,,,,, I salute you for your bravery, intelligence loyalty and I cry with joy and pride to be in your presence
The Israeli arabs know that outside Israeli countries Arabs will treat them like Asad is treating Syrian civilians , like Kadafi was treating Libya citizens , like Iran treats their civilans like Hamas is trating palestines . Why not be an Israeli and have a good life . After all we only live once . So why not defend what we have instead of ruin it. It is the most logic thing to do.
Israel is the only country in the middle east that enshrines the rights of everyone regardless of religion, sexual orientation, or colour. Much love to you Israel from the right thinking people of the Uk. X
Makes no difference because once they put that IDF uniform on they are blessed with the spirit of David. That same spirit today has faced a giant of terror at their gate with the same courage ,commitment and bravery. These results are visible for the world to see, much respect IDF ,stay safe and keep up that good work of righteousness, bless you all 🙏
The fact is, Israel treats Arabs better than Arabs treat Arabs, not to mention other people. So it's logical that those with a hint of thought in their minds would rather fight for Israel than for Palestine. An Arab could build a career and become someone in Israel, even in administration, if they study, work and be orderly people. A Jew, a Christian, anyone else, could only expect repressions and abuse under Palestinian authority.
I'm an Egyptian. I want to be an ally of Israel. I wish to see Egypt and Israel become allies 🇪🇬🇮🇱.

Ironic thing is, that Arab man is a member of parliament
@@yrm1594 Tibi does not want arab youth to serve in Tsahal and yet he serves in the Knesset. What a hypocrite.
Our country of Iraq had more religous freedom, better Jobs, better health care, free educations and no crime compare to your stolen land before your terrorist army came in to Iraq. The land of the "free" is the real shiethole where you open your mouths to much, and little knowledge
Arabs fight other Arabs even if there wasn't any Israel. Look at whats happening to Afghanistan now after the US left.
God bless and protect all IDF keep them safe.God ❤🇮🇱🥲
Iam JORDANIAN and I don't mind inlist in the idf
marhaba from your neighbor! native Israeli :) people like that politician you saw in the video, suffer a problem from education, what they learn about Jews as schoolchildren. School doesn't really emphasize that Arabs & Jews are from same historic roots, with same abjad root words in language (in Hebrew/Aramaic/Arabic). Both our peoples, among others like Kurds & Arameans & Assyrians, have experienced much of the same scenarios through history - whether Ottoman empire, Babylonian empire, or Assyrian empire. These facts are not talked about, not in most Arab communities and not even on mainstream international news like CNN or Sky.
In Israel, we celebrate both Hebrew culture, and Arab culture, in the streets, and in the mainstream popular culture. And even old people in the street, sitting on the sidewalk, always playing backgammon with their friends - and its always mizrahi Jews & Arabs playing together.
There are some division inciting politicians like that guy you saw in the video, saying emotion-changing rhetoric to manipulate people, but he can't fool everyone. We mostly have Arab Israeli idf volunteers because they feel part of our people, and definitely part of our country. These are both Druze & Christian & Muslim Arabs.
I am proud to be Israeli even more because I see Arab individuals as *no difference* to how I see Jew individuals - meaning that my environment has resulted in me thinking this way. but even more proud than that, when Arab brothers in the idf protect us, Jews. Equally protecting us as much as we protect them. Every one of those soldiers are 100% Israeli. When bombs drops from the sky, its both on their homes and on our homes. And we often share an apartment block building together anyway! and I can bet money that even in neighborhoods with racist Israelis (I'm sure there's some racists in every country), most of them will agree with everything I just said.
Socialization is an ignored aspect of military service. Israelis, more than most nations, are probably more aware since it incorporates larger swaths of women. Incorporating other groups voluntarily can be a force multiplier for society. Working as a team and taking responsibility for the team and the nation elevates the spirit and produces leaders. Those who stubbornly stand outside and watch will be sorely disappointed when the world changes before their eyes as it already is passing them by.
These young men are to be congratulated rather than condemned. They are fighting for the survival of their country, the only nation in the region that gives them rights of citizenship, including voting, having their own members in the knesset and living at a higher standard of living than all of their neighbors.
There still is a second class citizen to them but yes I agree they should defend
@@luisvilla799how are arab citizens 2nd class citizens? They have the same rights and are treated as equal. Sure there is an incident with cops here and there, but thats the same in america with police and black people isnt it?😂
This is a real people who serve to israel
Quick answer: they are decent people who realize that compliance gets them full citizenship
they prefer Israeli citizenship than Abdols citizenship
Beautiful to know 🤍🇮🇱
This is smart thinking on behalf of those young arabs. Israel is the only democratic state in the region with enormous growth opportunities in hi tech. the life of any arab country would improve 1000 times if it were occupied by Israel.
Conditions would improve in syria 100x more had israel never existed. And not thanks. We're happy with Kuwait, qatar, UAE, Saudi arabia, oman, jordan, lebanon, egypt, Algeria and tunisia. Even Iraq is fairly peaceful now. All of the states that I mentioned are modern states, some developed and some not. But the conditions are better or on par with israel.
Life must be good in the west bank? 🤔
If the Arabs would have spent their time and energy to build up their society instead of teaching their childish hate every Jew and aim at killing them, their future would be brighter.
Israel loves life and their children as much as Arabs love death and feel honored when their children commit suicide in order to kill Jews.
And by the way, where do they find so many virgins (72) to give to each terrorist
@skrigged9270 Utter nonsense. Lebanon is an economic catastrophe, Egypt remains miserably poor and decrepit. They are totally worse off than prosperous Israel. The rich Arab states like Qatar are only rich because of oil gave them a big boost, but they are still far less advanced technologically than Israel.
Am reminded of the saying "If you can't beat them, join them".
in Islam you protect the country you live in, no matter who you have to fight against. it's not that if you can't beat em join em, Muslims have more loyalty to their country.
@@mooktarkader Oh, so that's why Muslim countries are so powerful and successful?
@@meniweizmann644 'powerful' XDDDD
Im Kurdish i will join Israel army to.
😂😂😂😂
God bless you
Just goes to show that anyone with firsthand experience would prefer to live in a democracy such as Israel.
How could they be descendants of "Palestinians who remained in Israel in 1948"? Arabs did not co-opt this name until the 1960s. In 1948, the Arabs considered themselves Arab, muslim (or Christian), Syrian, or [clan name].
After the defeat of Bar Kokhba (132-135 CE) the Roman Emperor Hadrian was determined to wipe out the identity of Israel-Judah-Judea, and renamed it Syria Palaestina. Until that time the area had been called "province of Judea" (Roman Judea) by the Romans.
God protect Israel and ALL its people, both Arab and Israeli...
They serve with us because our beloved young cousins understood who we are and What we stands for. We will bless them as the try to help and assimilate with us. Shalom aleichem. More power to the mighty GOD’s soldiers on earth - IDF. Todah rabah.
Had it been IDF start recruiting world wide i would be one of them to join , this army personnel has a lot of discipline in many areas in the military realms.
They do recruit world wide. There are Jews who come to serve in IDF from all over the world. Many American Jews serve there instead of our military and many others have served in both.
Proof that everyone can get along without the interference of corrupt politicians.
That was an absolutely wonderful story...
It has to take lots & lots of courage...
Very proud & honored by those young Arabs...
Arab, if you're reading.....
You don't have to feel bad about it...
my people delt with the same issue when they fought Germany & Italy..and England, and the civil war...
You fight for good or evil not for the color of your skin..
You're doing the right thing by helping Israel....
and occupation is good, in Orwells israel
Ruben de Groot .....what do you know of occupation? Israel belongs to the Jews not the Arabs squatting there. The Arabs were offered relocation to their mother country in 1947, very few took it. Jews built the sand and rock into what it is now not the Arabs. Arabs are the real occupiers and they can still move. But who in the Muslim countries want them? NO ONE.
See Canon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_242
this is what I know of occupation. The opinion of the only authority of the subject. The one israeli's refer to, to claim its the institution that founded their nation.
Anthony Alger"If foreigners can live there peacefully & civilly then they're supposed to be treated just like a native Israelite...
The problem is right now they're not acting very civil.... "
Maybe theyre not acting "civil" because they were deported in 48 by your "moral superior army", and couldnt return to their villages, because they were turned into ashes.
Ruben de Groot ... they were never supposed to control the region permanently... The only reason they were there in the first place was because they murdered, slaughtered, kidnapped, raped, and enslaved the Israelite population... Now its time to reverse that & restore Israel back to the rightful owners...
My husband is icu nurse here in the philippines still working at the icu. If onky he can be soldier in your country i am willing to share my life in idf. By the way i am christian
Love Israel
You need to understand Israel is a nation a country
Arabs and Jews and Christian are religion
There is no connection
They all fight for their country
And I am proud of all of them
God bless them all
Palestine give your neighbours a chance to help you
Do it for the future generation
Quality of life and a promising future in a free country .Sure beats living in Hamas ruled Gaza.
Short answer: Life is just better in Israel. Minorities are treated well and enjoy more basic rights which is something you'd never see in the mainstream media.
heartfelt thanks to Israeli-Arabs , Druze , Christians etc that serve in the IDF
Proud of the Bedouin who serve their Nation
Bless you and all your ways from Sydney Australia in Lord Jesus Christ name. Hallelujah. Hallelujah
Cheers!! Every Arab's welcome
Thank you for all that you put up with IDF! :)
Stand and fight for your country Israel ..❤❤
There’s a lot of people that are so all about supporting Hamas that they think that Arabs joining the IDF is a draft by force, but that’s not true. They’re all volunteers whether you’re a Muslim or Christian or any other religion, you have that right to enlist. While every other Jew is conscripted into the IDF. Muslims, Christians, many other religions volunteer. I remember this one former IDF veteran speaking about when he was a child growing up he was conflicted between whose side he’s really on. Is he in Israeli? Is he a Palestinian? Either way he asked the group of Arabs wearing the IDF equipment asking why do you fight for Israel? And they responded with a laugh saying this is our home. Our home is under attack. We must defend it and our families and friends from terrorists trying to destroy our home. Unlike Hamas that literally wants to do serious harm they don’t care who they hit. Literally it’s not just you know they’re hatred for Jews. In fact anyone they don’t care for human rights. In most cases, a lot of people don’t seem to pay attention this button, all the rocket attacks that it happened whether it’s the past or not many of them have claimed the lives of Muslims especially those living in Israel. That is why I get so frustrated every time I literally see the reports of celebrities people like the squad members in Congress supports Hamas
0:15 one thing she did not mention is that any one who would like to join the IDF gets a background check, even of you're obligated to join the IDF. anyone with a messy background will have a harder time joining, arab or not. its true most arabs have a hard time because most arabic families are nonsupporting or the IDF, hence, the IDF is much more cautious about them.
not to everyone, druze can get it without any check and Ahmedi people too 🙂
it depends also on where you live.
Arabs dont have to join the IDF their joining is voluntarily
Background checks before giving someone a machine gun sound like a good idea.
נכון אבל זה נאדה בכול צבא באולם ישנם חיילים באלי רקע קשה שה צהל נילחם כדי לגייס הם לומדים מקצוע ויוצעים לאזרחות קה אנשים התורמים למדינה בינקומם ליפול לה פשע או דברים אחרים לא טובים אני מעוד גאה בכול חיל וחילות צהל צהל הוא קור איתוך של החברה הישראלית מוסלמים צ'רקסים ודרוזים נוצרים ויהודים צבא העם
Respect 100%
Bless these New Generations of Arab people who become educated and more open minded about serving the IDF in protecting their own Country Israel!
Hell yes stand up . Proud of yall
WE USA WILL ALWAYS BE WITH ISRAEL

@William O' Groats : got fuk yourself piece of shit
@@peterklaromenos873
I'm definitely an "authinthic isrealitis" 😂 all Jews in Israel are.
Young arabs are "turning away" because of the civilizational model used. Just compare life in Gaza with Tel Aviv.
Israel has given these Arabs a home. What have the Arabs given them? Bitterness
All credit to people who DO things, and not the ones who are complaining and bad-mouthing others
in the video you see doctor Ahmad tibbi an Israeli muslim parliament member discouraging Israeli arabs from identifying and serving the same country that he serves. Ahmad and the likes of his keep their power as long as he can keep everyone divisive. these are the type of people who benefits from the conflict
False. He is giving representation to the Palestinians living in “Israel”. Much different than fighting for their army.
Very true.
Israel has a place for those looking forward.
Tibbi is a toad. Anyone can plainly see he worships $$$ above all else.
Very true. A mentality of destruction and blaming Israel for everything.
If they let you worship your own religion then go with the laws of the land.
Good on these young men supporting the nation that is their home. May god protect all Israelis 🇮🇱🇬🇧🏴
Bravo ! Dieu vous bénisse ❤❤❤
Israel did not force them to leave their homes. Arab countries told them to flee their homes. BIG DIFFERENCE
The RIGHT side of history.....isn't hard to see.
כל הכבוד, ערבי בהחלט יכול להיות גאה במדינת ישראל.
More power to israel...from Philippines 🇵🇭
I'm Israeli Jew, all Israeli and Palestinian Arabs that I know wonderful people.
Because Isrsel is too their country ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Duty does not call any one, you feel the duty as a compulsory power to full fill it. Bravo haverim!!!
Wait a min, i thought israel was an apartheid state? why would they let arabs enlist in the army (irony btw)
The quran prophesied the establishment of Israel on the begining of Surat Al Esraa when it said that the Jews will spoil the land twice
They came from the same father Abraham.
These guys are glimmer of hope for peace in Israel.Perhaps someday the temple mount maybe shared by both?
It might possibly be that part of the reason why some Arabs join the IDF is the financial and other benefits that they can receive from serving currently or having served, for their future.
Like everyone else
Ahmad Tibi doesn't represent the Israeli Arabs at all!
He only thinks about his chair.
I dont care jewish or not all i care is that you stay loyal to your country. God bless them.
God blesses all those who bless Israel...
In Singapore there r Filipinos, Indonesians, Malaysians serving national service. They appreciate what they have in Singapore n r proud to be a Singapore citizen.
This is so beautiful.
They are beautiful people.
They are democracy for everyone.
They live, protect and fight together.
This is what happens when the children are taught not to hate by terrorist governments.
The solution to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, live together, live equal.

How come when there is an archeological dig, never is there found ancient Arab coins or artifacts, only those inscribed in Hebrew?
People know, Jew , Arab , Christian, Druze, Circassian, Martian , all know that ISRAEL 🇮🇱 exists to benefit all the people, including Palestinians living in the land,,,,,,,, the true intentions are good, and the Palestinians never had so many benefits as before ,,,,,, with a bit of understanding and honesty life can be a paradise,,,,,, I salute you for your bravery, intelligence loyalty and I cry with joy and pride to be in your presence
The Israeli arabs know that outside Israeli countries Arabs will treat them like Asad is treating Syrian civilians , like Kadafi was treating Libya citizens , like Iran treats their civilans like Hamas is trating palestines . Why not be an Israeli and have a good life . After all we only live once . So why not defend what we have instead of ruin it.
It is the most logic thing to do.
Israel is the only country in the middle east that enshrines the rights of everyone regardless of religion, sexual orientation, or colour. Much love to you Israel from the right thinking people of the Uk. X
Are you joking?
Makes no difference because once they put that IDF uniform on they are blessed with the spirit of David. That same spirit today has faced a giant of terror at their gate with the same courage ,commitment and bravery. These results are visible for the world to see, much respect IDF ,stay safe and keep up that good work of righteousness, bless you all 🙏
God bless Israel in name Jesus Christ
I think they convinced the Romans to nail that guy up. Sorry, dude.
The fact is, Israel treats Arabs better than Arabs treat Arabs, not to mention other people. So it's logical that those with a hint of thought in their minds would rather fight for Israel than for Palestine. An Arab could build a career and become someone in Israel, even in administration, if they study, work and be orderly people. A Jew, a Christian, anyone else, could only expect repressions and abuse under Palestinian authority.
Whatever state they are given, they will make it Judenrein.
I'm an Egyptian. I want to be an ally of Israel. I wish to see Egypt and Israel become allies 🇪🇬🇮🇱.
My country recognizes the state of Israel and has signed a peace treaty, so there's no compelling reason why we should hate our former enemies and wish for their deaths. We are both facing threats from Gaza, the terror factory spreading hate and violence in Sinai and the Negev desert. We must stand together, an alliance with Israel has a thousand times more potential than an alliance with Palestine, a lost cause.
עם ישראל חי 🇮🇱 تحيا مصر 🇪🇬
as an israeli i can tell you that we dont hate egypt/egyptians
It's not our side that doesn't have peace on a civilian level
Unlike israel egypt is done nothing to promote peace ona civilian level
Anyway egypt doesn't give a shit about Palestinians unlike israel that gives them food water electricity and financial aid
Anyway I would love if yoyr country would support Palestinians as well as having peace on a civilian level Like israel has
God bless you
U look like an Angel. No bad for an anchor... 🥰. Keep reporting...
Sorry they are not against their own people, they just want to live in peace, while you Palestinians want only trouble
Warriors of the good God. You are responsible to free this beautiful world of the good God from all evil humans.
beecauusse issraell is bold and good....
Doesn't that immediately show that Israel is not just a Jewish State.
It is a State for all.
It offers the same for everyone.
Jewish, don't matter give me 50 push ups. Palestinian, don't matter give me 50 pushups. Christian, don't matter give me 50 push ups.
What can be more equalizing.
You give Me Your all, I will give You mine.
And We will all live in the Land of Milk and Honey.
God Bless Israel.
