Life in the shadows: Palestinians in Lebanon - Al Jazeera World
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 кві 2016
- In 1948, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forced to leave their country during the ‘Nakba’, the ‘catastrophe’, the founding of the state of Israel.
The majority of Palestinians in Lebanon retain the hope of one day returning home - known internationally as ‘the right of return’ - but almost seven decades later, refugee camps have become part of the urban landscape of Lebanon.
Over a quarter-of-a-million Palestinians still live in the 12 UN-registered camps and 42 other so-called ‘gatherings’ across Lebanon. Lebanon is their home but any chance of becoming a genuine part of the communities they live in is constantly undermined by strict laws ‘protecting’ Lebanese citizens’ rights, general safety and well-being.

This breaks my heart. I thought only Americans and Israel treat Palestinians this way. Lebanon is also disgraceful. This cannot go on forever.
Coz Lebanese government is slave of the American and Israelis so that's why job are not giving Palestinians
Thank you, Al Jazeera, from Pennsylvania. You are a light and a blessing to the world. I knew about how the Israelis oppress the Palestinians, but I had no idea Palestinians suffer like this in Lebanon. My heart aches for their plight.
ze worden overal weggejaagd door de hele arabische wereld het zijn oorspronkelijk syriers msar die moeten ze ook niet daarom zitten ze daar op het land van de loden de die ze niet hebben verjaagd de engesen heeft ze verjaagd en die willen werken die werken in israel ze nemen 20 kinderen daarom hebben geen ruimte ze zijn gek op hamas ze krijgen alles van israel electra water olie daarom kunnen ze het afsluiten ik hoop dat ze het helemaal plat gooien ik haat ze ook hoofdje van babys af hakken 100den mensen gemarteld verkracht in nederland haai iedereen ze ze hebben mijn kinderen ook bijna vermoord lees de bijbel israel betaat al 100den jaren ze hebben 3 koningen gehad en de romijnen hebben het palastina genoemd schaam je
I lived and worked in Bourj al-Barajneh in the 1980s and have visited all the Palestinian refugee camps. This powerful documentary describes the desperate situation of the 1948 Palestine refugees in Lebanon. Because of Lebanon's internal sectarian divisions the Palestinians are the victims of discrimination. Their human rights and dignity are violated and they are being robbed of a future. This is why young people are forced to leave and find a better future. These are all ripple effects of the historic tragedy of the Palestinian Nakba of 1948, that drove so many Palestinians into exile.
Those two Lebanese “lawyers” truly filled me with rage with there disgusting excuses for oppression
I am Lebanese and I support the Palestinian cause, however, the law's in most of the world are strict on refugees, not just in Lebanon. Lebanon is a small country, the Lebanese citizens who have rights are struggling and cannot find jobs, the electricity is cut all over Lebanon not just in the camps, and even the Lebanese people feel as if they don't have rights. This documentary is making it seem as if the Palestinians are being targeted and this is not the case. Everywhere in the world non-citizens do not have full rights. I feel as the Palestinians should be grateful that they are not living in Gaza or the West bank under bullets. At least in Lebanon you go to sleep not worrying about missiles. Its not like Lebanon is this 1st world country and you are the only ones who are suffering. Even the Lebanese people who have rights are suffering.
You are worse than Israelis. At least they let Palestinians be whatever they want. Allah will judge you.
Im Lebanese and your response is stupid
I was about to comment almost identical comment like this. 💯 I lived in Lebanon 2 years even Lebanese cannot find work or even if they do they stuggle to get by. The “no government” needs to help their own to prevent divisions
But free palestine 🇵🇸
OK, but they’re still facing discrimination and racism. There’s no need to justify that racism and discrimination on your end. I was born in the West Bank and I lived in the West Bank half my childhood, I currently live in the United States. I am coming from a place of privilege. I also understand the position that Lebanon is put in and the instability that it is going through. It still does not justify discrimination‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
no one is screaming about Lebanon being an apartheid state.
the palestinians are conserved in this state of 'refugees' just to be used as propaganda weapon against israel
+bla ba The reason are the Taif Accords, if they just gave them citizenship, it would upset the political balance of an already fragile country.
+bla ba apartheid when you have separate street, squatter seize your land and demolish your house , taking over your village just because your happen to be non jewish, the right of return is only for jew just because some ancient biblical said so but not for indigenous that has been lived there for centuries... how that not apartheid? lebanon unlike israel backed up by US tax dollar payer and lobbyist , lebanon have their own citizen to feed on...
Bella Trix by your definition israel is not an apartheid, none of those things happen in israel.
this is just propaganda u are being fed.
20% of israel's population is arab muslim with just the same rights as any other israeli citizen.
the arabs at gaza are not controlled by israel but by hamas.
and the arabs at the west bank are controled by the Palestinian authority.
israel does not banish anyone from his home and does not take any village.
there is no segregation anywhere in israel.
and i am not a religious person.
your perception of israel is false and full with lies.
read history learn about reality and later come back
That is a disgusting lie. Lebanon, in fact, _should_ be described as an apartheid society which savagely discriminates against its Palestinian population, just as Israel does. Both countries are wrong.
I am lebanese myself and ashamed of the system. Lebanese people always feel superior.
What happened and happening with Palestinians can never be written fully 😭
Love and support from Pakistan 🇵🇰 my brothers and sisters love you, you are in our prayers and thoughts ❤ we love you so much!
My grandpa left Palestine when he was 18 years old and all of my other family members during that generation left during the Nakba. Almost 70 years later here I am living in the United States in Chicago and my dad is a physician. I'm lucky not to be living in Ain Al Hilweh. Im just 16 years old I can't imagine what they went through. I've been to the Ain Al Hilweh on multiple occasions and it's terrible there. I still have a lot of family members that live in the camp and a lot who got to escape and have a better lifestyle in Lebanon. I pray for one day when I get to see the reactions on my family members face when they get to go back to our outcastes village of Tatabat near Safed.
70 years later and you are still called Mohammed ? how original !
Be grateful for USA my family came here too to escape oppression
So sad to see people in this situation
The obvious question is, how it is possible that the same Palestinians in the US, UK, and others, are treated way better then in their arab brother countries?
Also, they look like Lebanese, sounds alike, and probably are not so much different. Why not integrate them? As the guy in 7:00 say.
moti m because they are not lebanese. they are not the same people. they have different dialects and ancestry
@@lebanesegamer2647
This ideology is so stupid especially when used by the Lebanese pepole to differentiate themselvs from Palestinians and Syrians, if Lebanese people are not arabs them Palestinians are not arabs too because we live just next to you ( the Phoenicians lived in Palestine and are so close genetically to the canniets). Sycis picot changed borders not genetics.
I have lots of Christians friends, we cant fight between ourselves and expect to build a better world, we must unite if not fof love and peace, for the common goal of raising our children in a bright safe future.
It is the govrenment fault not the people
@@tony______________9552 so this is like saying if ur not lebanese u don't get equal rights. Before lebanon became a country All of bilad el sham were one country but the brits came and seperated us.
Think of them as belonging to a different tribe. Arabs are not a monolithic group, they are made up of many different ethnicities. Also, the Lebanese are protecting their own people with regards to jobs, business etc. They don't want competition. I suspect they are the Palestinians as a threat as they are very ambitious and forward thinking and value eduction light highly. Not saying that the native Lebanese don't.
I'm Lebanese and I feel so sad for Palestinians . hopefully one day they will be treated better by our leadersand people. free palestine
The PLO and Palestinian settlers did the same thing to us as the Israelis did to them. They wanted to make our country a Palestine of their own.
like they treated us better
Pray for better life for Palestine,, soon you will get a better life keep praying 🙏🏻
This video has really changed my mind on how I view the Lebanese government
It is truly absurd
This is disgusting
Same! Especially with the current Lebanese explosion :(( this is a tragedy! This generation has a huge responsibility to fix everything for future generations! We can do it if we want it enough!
But this is the same in Syria and Jordan. Palestinians are treated there like lower class citizens with almost no rights.
This is so heartbreaking.💔💔
Palentinians don't deserve to marginalized, 😥degraded, 😥and discriminated. 😥Why there's so much hatred in this world? 🤦🤷Why we forgot our moral obligations to other people? 🤦🤷Why everything must be labeled?🤦🤷 Why not live with love 💞💞and peace.🙏🙏 I am not in their shoes 👠👟👢👡👞and don't know really what they are going through each daily basis, however seeing this content made my heart broke and my eyes teared. Can't imagine how physically,🤒😓 emotionally, 🤧😢psychologically, mentally, 🧠🧠and socially trumatic the situations for the Palentinians especially for the elders 👴👵 children and family.👨👩👧👦👨👩👧👦 All i can do is to include them to my prayers. To Palestinians people, do not give up 💪💪despite the situations continue your all burning💥💥 heart desire to continue living with your all undying faith and hope within you. One day this may shall pass. 🙏🙏
@O'Neil Williams That's The Problem Always Bringing In The Devil Or GOD to Justify Human Atrocities. Humanity Has Created What This World Is Today. SATAN Is The Manifestation Of Poor Souls, humans; and GOD Is The Love, Light, Peace and Path We Aspire To Assimilate With.
If you knew the hiatory of Lebanon and how much suffer blood and terror the Palestinians brought to lebanon , you would think different
@@JamesBond-hg6gt That's a Big Cheap lie you're trying to spread. Not sure what kind of schooling system you've been indoctrinated with. The very foundation of this entity was built on a big lie, only to fail soon after. With or without the Palestinians, this unusual sectarian devided entity was doomed from the very beginning.
I am so sorry that Palestinians are so oppressed and treated so poorly by governments of the world.
Al Jazeera's documentaries are such eye opening experice to the world. There are so much human struggle around the world really make American's problems seem petty. I wish CNN/MSNBC/Foxnews have 10% of their journalistic integrity.
The doctor’s situation just to practice being a doctor breaks my heart. How can we compensate a doctor with 50 dollars a month??? Thats beyond inhumane 🥺🥺🥺🥺
And with hypierinflation in Lebanon, 150.000 Liras might only be worth around 5 dollars
I can only get upset and angry when I see how racist the Lebanese government SHAME SHAME ON YOU
THE LEBANESE CANT FEED THEMSELVES HOW WILL THEY FEED THE SAME PEOPLE THAT BEGINED A WAR THAT WOULD DESTROY LEBANON AND WANTED TO MAKE US THEIR PALESTINE YOU IGNORANT
@@roufeyel7866 as a palestinian that is true Lebanon can't even help themselves
@Steve Makron moss
you dont know that they brought blood to us and massacre shame on you
Yes you are right?
I agree with the comentaries below. I can´t hear or read anything about the apartheid states of lebanon, syria, egyp and jordanian. Interesesting how 800,000 jews left their homes from arab lands and they were rescued and became full citizens of the of the State of Israel. Now, the arab brothers of the palestinians treat them as a real apartheid state. Contradictions, cynicism.
So now Jews fled the middle east ? Lol
Well not all fled but 50% of israeli jews from arab countries. My family is syrian and moroccan
Jews can't flee from Israel, which is in the Middle East, can they? But they did flee from the areas that came under firmer islamic governance across North Africa and the Middle East, from Morocco to Iran...
Israel top rates of immagration for more than a decade(60,000 every year)
Yet, thriving & overcoming obstacles.
Am Israel Chai.
Jews did not leave Arab countries. They were expelled and many thousands died. The Palestinians also killed thousands in Lebanon taking over several villages before they were stopped. That is the reason Lebanon doesn't want them. They tried to take over part of the country and failed
Not to mention the Sabra and Shatilla massacre, when lebanese militias turned the two palestinian camps into a slaughterhouse, on grounds of a false tipoff that the palestinians had killed a lebanese leader. When the truth was unveiled, the lebanese didn't even bother to apologise. I've been to lebanon as a tourist a couple of times, and i can testify to those ppl's racism. They breathe racism. Even as a tourist i felt the disgusting lebanese racism.
Terrible situation for the Palestinian people.
of their own making.

It's the Lebanese's fault.
It's Israel's fault. They are the ones who caused these refugee camps in the first place.
Learn it now, I did learnt a long time ago. This world there are good people as well as there are a bad people, regardless of their colours,nation's, or regardless of the relationship you have with them. Period.
Palestinians are marginalized but also looked down upon by many of the Lebanese.
I only see people as equals so during my visit it was not easy to listen to cousins speak poorly about Palestinians or the Syrians who crossed into Lebanon in the early years of the Syrian war.
Most of the land of Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon were part of greater Syria. In the grand scheme, how can one not believe that we are not brothers and sisters?
As far as dialects are concerned, they are no different than people who are from Boston vs people who live west of the city and closer to the border of New York state. Even in the second largest city, one knows who grew up on the west or east side of the city by their word pronunciations.
I know that recipes, be they meals or pastries, vary slightly from region to region of Lebanon, Palestine and Syria.
What matters most is that we are all human. Regardless who one thinks they are, we are "One Humanity" where people must be treated equally and with dignity.
Governments are what cause divisiveness.
I feel so bad for the Palestinians. Hate how I was only aware or educated about their fight against their oppressors last year.
Mashaallah the Palestinians are the most hardworking, intelligent, long suffering and God fearing people. Maybe they will enter God’s paradise before others because they continue to bare their struggles, oppression with patience. You are a beacon of light to the world.May the Almighty shower his love, mercy and protection on all the believers Ameen. Lebanon don’t deprive your country of Palestinian doctors, engineers.all workers. Let them own their own property this is their moral and human right.
Palestinians in Lebanon are segregated in housing, education, and employment. This is called apartheid. IT is important here tp point out that I don't incriminate my Lebanese brothers and sisters. Apartheid is administered by the government of Lebanon.
The Lebanese government itself cannot even take care of its own people due to the Israeli-Lebanon war in which the Palestinians and the Israelis were largely to blame and then the crisis came and in the end extremist groups like Hezbollah arrived and then finally the Syrians that they tried to control Lebanon if the Lebanese government cannot even help its own people, how is it going to help the vast majority of Foreigners who want to settle here permanently and who make up extremist groups
Whether Palestinian or Syrian refugees, you cannot expect the Lebanese government to grant refugees the same legal rights and obligations as Lebanese citizens. Frankly, they are lucky to be even allowed in. Most countries will not tolerate a parallel society or ghetto within their territory.
@@yo2trader539 Palestinians - in most countries, would be entitled to the same rights you enjoy in Lebanon. Most of them have been there for three generations - since 1948. They actually share more commonalities with you than me - Where I was born in Jordan. But, even as refugees, they should not be treated worse than animals. Preventing them from employment, housing, health, education is a crime. Shame! If I was to close my eyes and make a wish, it would be to see all of them leave Lebanon - all of them, to any other place in this world. Lebanon is a sick body of various sects and tribes that are so animus of each other and at constant wars amongst each other - at least from 1860. It can never see stability on its own. It is destined to implode. If you are not able to help people whose country was usurped, and who were forced to flee their homes in Palestine, and who - like you, were born in Lebanon; and their parents - like your parents, were born in Lebanon, and if you don't find yourself outraged - as a human, at their squalid and miserable conditions, please help in moving them out of their segregated - Jim Crow-like ghettos in your country. Death is more forgiving.
AlJazeera .. please have the voices dubbed in English to have a larger audience. Reading subtitles is no easy task
They're all Arabs. "Palestinian" is just a political term. The way Arabs treat each other is quite odd.
Lebanese technically are not arab
Not the arab people it is the govrnenments
@@lebanesegamer2647 we are lebanese arabs. Deal with it but stop denying our heritage
Arabs are from the UAE 🇦🇪 they are the only true arabs
@@Imanne87 not that is not true
I hate when they say Palestinians aren’t allowed to study or work in Lebanon. This is so untrue. Just like anyone in the world if they are educated they can have jobs and work just like anyone else. The unrwa gives them monthly salaries. Back in the days they tried to take other countries. The PLO tried to take Jordan and they caused a lot of attacks and killed a lot of people as they did in Lebanon. My uncle was shot several times by Palestinians although he used to support them. He was in the hospital for a year. He had a terrible life after that and died at a very young age because they didn’t want support from a Lebanese. I hate how everyone generalizes and points fingers then say look how Lebanese people treat these people when on the contrary they have land to live on and a life to live and some live even much better than Lebanese families. I don’t think alot of people have read about history to know that people who are “victims “ are not always innocent. I have alot of Palestinian friends but I don’t like extremists who pretend that the world is over and act like they are so mistreated because they are not (the ones abroad). I will always feel bad for those losing their lives in Palestine but to expect to have a red carpet abroad is something imaginary for anyone and I say it again, a lot are doing much better than Lebanese citizens. There are alot of rich Palestinians living in Lebanon and they own companies, work and are treated just like anyone else. Stop this untrue news just to advertise people in a bad way.

Wonder why?
Im not Palestinian but im Muslim and i have respect on my heart for Palestinian Inshalah You will be free Just in Few year inshallah ❤
I have visited 4 of the Palestinian camps in Lebanon, its just sad :( im planing to go back, try to document whats happening to the Palestinians. FREE PALESTINE.
Best regards from Norway
Palestine is made up, good morning
Free Lebanese Palestinians.
free palestine!!!!!!!congrats for what u do
How'd it go with that?
Lebanon, where is your pride? Why do you deny your Palestinian brothers their rights?
Gulf Arab countries should invite Palestinian graduates to work in their countries . So they are able to contribute to the gulf economy and lead a more dignified life ! These are smart people and I don't understand why the Gulf countries are employing so many foreigners but not educated Palestinian refugees . Similar language similar culture and they can adapt almost immediately. Don't blame Lebanon , Lebanese themselves find it hard to find jobs , unfortunately. I'm an Arab and I'm thankful my grandparents migrated to Singapore in the 1920s from Yemen and both my parents and my family born in Singapore .
CAN WE ASK EGYPT WHY THEY CANT GIVE PART OF SINAI DESERT TO RESETTLE THIS PALESTINIAN REFUGEES. WHY......
This!!! I don't understand why UAE, Qatar, Saudi etc. don't accept Palestinians. I'm Kenyan, and so many Kenyans, are going to these countries in large numbers for both skilled and unskilled jobs in high numbers. Our government just entered an agreement with Saudi government to be sending nurses there every year. And I hear these rich gulf countries are full of other blacks, Indians, Nepals, Bagladeshis etc. I would want an Arab from these super rich nations to explain to me why they don't help Palestinians get jobs in their country
I salute the Palestinians’ seeking mind for knowledge.
too many ignorance comments here........ how about you were palestinian....... i think u would have got same story......
I don't know what they are complaining about. Their camp doesn't look any worse than the rest of the middle east. With the exception of a few places like Dubai, most of the middle east is a shithole. People with degrees in America are out of work also.
+Joe Dirt Did you not watch the documentary? One guy is DOCTOR and not allowed to work his trade. A couple of them are MASTERS IN ENGINEERING and are not allowed to work. They can find work but there are not ALLOWED to work. Huge difference. They are not allowed to own property, get married or leave their camps and denied citizenship after 3 generations.
+Darren Joseph And yet instead of hating Lebanon which has oppressed them for decades they still hate israel.
+Darren Joseph And the doctor was working. He just has to work as an assistant to a Lebanese doctor. How much do you wanna bet his education in Russia was free? Now he can go anywhere in the world and have a a high paying job, but instead he chose to go back to the camps. Poor choice I think. He could go to America or UK and make a nice living.
+abuaimen28 If he got a doctorate in Russia he could practice medicine in the US, Russia, or the UK. The US has numerous doctors who have been educated in other countries. His degree would be considered legit in the west or Russia.
+Joe Dirt In the documentary none of the Palestinians mentioned Israel - Stop making up stuff.
Cant believe this is happening in Lebanon with Palestinians 😢😢 Allah will ask you....
That is absolutely disgusting how could the Lebanese government treat these poor Palestinians in this inhumane and ungodly way???????
I lived in Lebanon 2 years. I’m Australian. Lebanon is suffering extremely and the Lebanese struggle to get by or even find work themselves. Even if the Lebanese find work they rarely make enough to even get by.
It’s actually a Very poor country most of it. So they leave opportunities to help their own people first which is unfair. Israel is responsible for all this. Shame.
Free palestine 🇵🇸
nothing has changed.........
I can only cry for you
why dont they just go to other arab countries like Morocco or Oman and get jobs there it would be very easy for them because they all have degrees and they would get paid very very good
@O'Neil Williams i really think that if the palestinians go to morocco to work that they will get treated very good i even believe that they will be able to get a job much faster then moroccans that have a degree. Btw good question
I see everybody has shoes. I can see that they live better than 50% of the world. Just compare it to many countries in Africa or South America.
Afica is not like what they show you on tv, they have cities and all that and yes there are very poor places but still there are cities jobs and all that, but at least their land is not occupied. I have family members from Lebanon who went to Africa for jobs
Are you dumb, Africa is richer than Lebanon plus there are many Lebanese in Africa
كل الحق على جدودنا مش لازم طلعو من فلسطين.
Next time people complain about discrimination in US show them this
Why doesn’t Lebanon give them full freedom? Many Palestinians have Lebanese blood. Why are they refugees in their brothers land?
That goverment discrimaned or double standard for civilitation 😥
Allah bless all my Palestinian brother and sister.. heart broken.
Heaven must be full of Palestinians, they have suffered so much in this world .
@noshrinkage how rude and entitled can you be? It is just like if someone took your loaf of bread, then gave you a silver of it and asked you to accept the small piece and say thanks.
@Timothy Rivera
yeah you are forgetting one very small detail, the loaf of bread is Palestinian because of the facr that most of the Jews were immigrants and colonists.
why should they accept the proposal of half? how is this justice?
Mohamed Kabha when you go to war you risk losing everything the land was divided equally but its too much for the pride of arabs.
Lol
Aminnn..... 🤲🤲🤲
this is so depressing and sad, shame on Lebanon racist against their brother arabs..
The Lebanese government itself cannot even take care of its own people due to the Israeli-Lebanon war in which the Palestinians and the Israelis were largely to blame and then the crisis came and in the end extremist groups like Hezbollah arrived and then finally the Syrians that they tried to control Lebanon if the Lebanese government cannot even help its own people, how is it going to help the vast majority of Foreigners who want to settle here permanently and who make up extremist groups
What a sad affair
Ein el helweh means beautiful eyes in arabic. Not so beautiful though smh
I feel sorry for these people for the racial discrimination that they are facing😭imagine they are educated but they cant find a job the first their education just because they are Palestinians😭what a world they’re living in I pray for these people cause they deserve to live in a manner that they deserved🙏🏻
there is another side to the picture as well (as i have heard). Palestinians starting recruiting people form Lebanon to fight against Palestine, which is why Israel bombed Lebanon. This made the Lebanese upset!!!
Imagine being denied rights in your own country. I live in India and here there is so much hatred and division even within our own communities
@O'Neil Williams No I was talking about even intra-ethnic violence and hatred. Caste and gender crimes, colourism, extensive social taboos and patriachal norms... It's everywhere at every level.
Sad story. All poor Mideast people, I pray for you. Don't lose hope. Accumulate secular knowledge, especially science and technology, at least through Internet.
Don't get into religious extremism. Your bright future is near. The current world order is collapsing from the top. It only took 30 years for the Chinese to lift themselves up from their boots. At most another 30 years, the Chinese will be able to help lifting up all the distressed people from their boots too.
My memory takes me back to the 80's when the Palestinian presence in Lebanon was quite influential. No one was hungry, no one was left without medical care. Palestinians owned businesses and employed Lebanese. Just remember what the Palestinian brought to Lebanon in the years that had passed. When the majority of Palestinians left, Lebanon went hungry. Sad fact
Didn't they bring a war? When a state gives you refuge, you respect the host country and you don't destroy it and drag them into a fight that has nothing to do with them.
Looks like a change of status quo is in place. Maybe an update who is in control now?
The Arab world 🌍 has truly failed the Palestinian Nation 😢
very sad unfortunate pales tine refuge for the survival in Lebanon , billions of droller spent on military weapon no human right activist raise the voice for the real fact,
Hi really nice work and thanks for showing World reality im Palestine From balta where you have been 😃😃free Palestine

As an Israeli, i truly feel sorry for these people.
I understand that we have responsibility for them as side in war conflict, which created the Palestinian refugees problem. But, the refugee host countries, some of which was also part in the war, policy toward Palestinians only intensifies their suffering.
There is place for Palestinian country in West bank and Gaza, but it would not be able to host all the descendants of original refugees. As well, Israel would not able to take any significant amount of refugees in addition to 1.9M Israeli Arabs population as it would dramatically change the demographics and eliminate dream for safe homeland for Jewish people.
The is no other option, but to find a solution for the refugees descendants within the host countries. Those, who dreamed to wipe Israel and its population out for last 70 years, would dream for another 700 at least.
@Timbo lati none of what you've said makes any sense once you realize israel was made to be a watch tower for the US over the mid east, sooner or later, it will be destroyed and Palestinians will return
kingbradley6000 that is the problem .. delusional imbeciles like you.
@@kingbradley6000Jews are a people indigenous from that land, they were expelled and eventually went back. The US had nothing to do with that, actually they only sided with Israel after the 67' war, when they realized that it was a powerful country with an important future. That being said, I don't agree that it is impossible to keep the country safe for jews with all of the descendants of original refugees. We just need to change our mindset. It's true that it would change demographics, but you could make a constitution that doesn't change the Jewish status, but you also recognize a Palestinian status. Being fair is the only way of having a long lasting peace. Having justice with both sides. Both sides need to recognize the right of the other people to live there. Otherwise you are only perpetuating the suffering of both people.
@@joojleestop the bullshit and none sense isreali were the indigenous people of the land with this logic Australian should leave and go live somewhere else and American should leave and go somewhere just because isreali lived there 2000 years ago doesn’t make them the owner of the land plus Palestinian are the indigenous people of the land they are all Canaanite descendants as well as Syria. And Lebanese they were Jew who converted later on to Christianity and then to Islam a whole nation was living there a thriving nation with dreams and hopes that you came and destroyed and destroyed the rest of the countries near by most of the people living in isreal have nothing to do with land Europeans coming from Poland Russian Ukraine America claiming a land just because they are Jewish and Jewish people lived there 2000 years ago it is twisted and ridiculous logic that you keep convincing yourself and the people with and cover up the horrible crimes and suffering that have been happening since so long because of the existence of the so called Jewish state disgusting and outrageous
Aleast give them jobs to fend for themselves, if not they will be nuisance to society
This is not the way lebanese people are treated abroad, in other countries. Why don't you treat palestinians as you wish to be treated? This is not human. You can't be proud of your system.
And then you dare talk down on people with other ethnicities, who live in your country. They didn't come to beg they came to work just as Lebanese people are trying to find a better life and make money abroad.
The Arab League told these people to leave and will come back when they won the war. They didn't but do nothing to help them. They will not be going back and the Arab world needs to absorb them into their societies. Its not just Lebanon but Syria, Jorden Turkey and many other Arab countries that have camps
They should be able to settle in the West Bank once a Palestinian state is created. 2SS
The parents and grand parents of these poor refugees thought it was a good idea to try to take lebanon and make it their new palestine. Well they failed miserably and were returned to their poor little camps. They were loved and respected by the lebanese state and people before they decided to backstabb us. We loved them so much we let them carry woepens and have full control of their camps. Palestinians had so much freedom in lebanon that they pretty much did anything they want and didnt respect the lebanese laws and sovreignety. When we decided to defend our country, everbody got mad at us and were accusing us of zionists and heartless human being. Now that the palestinians lost the war and that the PLO was expulsed from lebanon, palestinians start to play the victims and accuse the lebanese of mistreating them. Well maybe if you didn't destroy the country that welcomed you with open arms we would treat a bit better I dont know. It is sad to see the younger generation suffer because of what their parents and grand parents did but hey, its life I guess🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Wow thanks for showing the issue from another perspective
Libanese vs Palestine!!!

Shame on the Lebanese government. They r there to stay let them be true Lebanese without forgetting there roots and history.

Back in 1948, you should have accepted the other half of Palestinian land alloted to you.

Lebanon? More like Israel 2.0! (at least Palestinians CAN get citizenship and full rights in some way in Israel)
Your wrong. Palestinians are now trying to claim lebanon as their own.
I feel very Sad for a Doctors who is paid only 50$ and had to practice in some other name as my relative is also a Dr india presently at UK doing very well also the most suffering PLs refugees like Engineers,Electrician, and other profession in Lebanon may be god will show mercy on the mind set and attitude of LB people and their political rules to elevate them selves to live in a Universal brother hood as preached in their religion with peace and harmony to prosperity of all human beings
So our indian brothers of a particular community who has been given all benefits to Minority reservation, Govt funding,Free education, govt Jobs owning property, freedom to practice their religion and all other freedom to live,travel anywhere in the democratic set up should learn lesson how fortunate they are compared to their brothers and sisters in PLs. Still most of them are not loyal to the indian country , freely express hate other religions, praise other county in Cricket match, foot ball match , do not mix with other community freely hate them most and also teach their children to hate them shout in public .
Let our brothers of a particular community in India see the plight of their brother at Palestine in Lebanon and learn how fortunate they are try to live peace fully without nay hatred in future and show true nationality and brother hood .So that future generations will live peacefully .
Lebanon and its people are brave and upright individuals who ever they are. Lebanon Hesbullah is a formidable organisation, highly organised and they have a great army. Israel understand that they are no longer masters without US in the Middle East. And their are reports that their days are numbered. Any conflict again Israel would be wiped off the map. They should make peace with the Palestinians before it is too late.
Don't lie, the Israeli army is among the 20 strongest while the Lebanese army is made up of the majority of UN soldiers. Israel has already won 6 wars without the help of the United States, England and France.
where were the palestines and other people living before the united kingdom of israel and judah was destroyed and taken over? im sure all these different cultures were somewhere befored they tried to claim israel as their own
+King L These people came from Surrounding countries as their names show, but were originally form Arabia, hence the name Arab/Arabia
The famous Husseini family of Jerusalem
from Egypt. (The Shawishes
come from the Husseinis.)
The equally famous Nashashibis
of Jerusalem, who are of Turko-Kurdish origin.
And the Abu Ghoshes,
who came around the time of the Crusades, from Arabia.
The Barghoutis,
who came from the Bani Zeid
clan who arrived after the Crusades.
Al Khalil
family, from Mecca.
Khazens,
who are from Lebanon.

+cecil123 we are the canaanes/ Phoenicians from Greece moved to that land around the same time when Greeks started expanding throughout the Mediterranean. this is proven just by looking at our cuisine. If you want to compare it to the Arabian cuisine you'll find it to be very different. We make pita, stuffed veggies, lamb, baklava etc. we say opa!, Alaopa, kataif, which are all Greek. We also believe that we are mixed with people from France and Italy. The region I'm from is called latrun and most people from there are fair skin with colored eyes which are characteristics of European descendants. I do also believe that we were Jews at some point. I have a link to prove this. Just watch the similarities of the people in the video.
cockneydoll shut up
the injust wrong way Lebanon treat the refugees Palestinian can't bring the good luck for the Lebanon
No thats not whats happening in lebanon tho there have been issues too so lets not pretend that there hasn’t
BDSLebanon
Please explain why they are treated in this way. There were also a lot of destructive activities from Palestinians side.
True that
Palestinian escaped from the Apartheid Israel to find Lebanese Apartheid.Haram..Allah Is Always in the Side of the Oppressed not the Oppressors.
the whole Arab world is Apartheid system.
BOYCOTT LEBANON!
#BDSLebanon
Lebanese
stop killing the Palestinians in Lebanon!
@@tyronewillingham3281 like we did we helped them they killed us now they are trying to make a state inside lebanon
So Lebannon is an apartheid state!!!
Arabs living in Israel are the only arabs with electricity, water, healthcare 24/7 and unemployment benefits. By the way, Palestinians were invented in 1964 in East Jerusalem, at the time occupied by the Jordanians. Please correct guest statements to reflect this.
If there not happy they can go somewhere else
ksamek3 they barely can afford food and you want them to go elsewhere they have to pay for transportation *facepalm*
Seeing all the comments, I would like to show you the mentality from the Lebanese perspective, especially the Christian side which is often forgotten (yes, Lebanon is not totally a Muslim and an Arab country ; I consider myself with Phoenician ancestry so not Arab) :
We are supposed to accept that the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organisation) was created on our own land, that they were the ones who gathered weapons and used them in order to threat (my) people for different reasons : to pay for their newspaper by force, or to use ransom by capturing Lebanese citizens. And these people were the elder ones you see on this video I presume. My grandparents and their siblings had to hide themselves from the Palestinians IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY, Lebanon. If they refused to pay money to the Palestinians, people had either to die (more likely if you were Christian) or to stand under the sun for hours or even to be captured (and some people were never seen). The PLO also wanted to capture/kill the heads of the national army/police which my granduncle was part of. He had to switch his name in order to stay alive. Because the Christian "clans"/communities did not accept the situations, they turned against the Palestinians and so the Muslim Lebanese people as well. Some said that the Palestinians wanted to invade us and make Lebanon their second Palestine in order to settle somewhere else and push themselves through. See the Palestinians in this video, if I am being honest, they always have Palestinian flags (which I totally understand although it is the truth).
This made begin the 15-year civil war in Lebanon, it ruined Lebanon and we still suffer from it. Knowing the all other parties in the region apply continuous pressure on Lebanon to become a puppet for different political reasons, and that corruption is always present everywhere. If you are not Lebanese and you never ever have lived there, then I understand totally that a lot of people hate the mentality, but don't forget that there is a loooooonnnng story behind every law/reasoning/mentality from every side in the region.
Lebanese don't have money too : most of the Lebanese have a low salary and it becomes worse now because of the total crisis the Lebanese people are living right now. Lebanese struggle to buy bread now and parts of the foreign aid that are dedicated for the Lebanese are stolen buy the Syrian and Palestinian refugees... I understand that because everyone suffers, but the latter have already aids coming for them in their camps... And the lawyers that you saw may be harsh on them but I think honest : Lebanon does not want the Palestinians to stay permanently in the country but go in the West Bank with their people, the same applies to the Syrian refugees to Syria.
In conclusion, because the Lebanese government - although I hate it for its lack of open mindedness (that is why I understand all the comments) - cannot already take care of its own people, how can it take care of Palestinians. They already have the West Bank where they can have a better life (and Gaza, to be totally politically correct) and live with their people/families.
Thank you for your understanding, especially if you read my text until the end :)
If you know other details I may don't know, please write it below :)
Bullshit
@@khadershashaa1526 no its the truth, many Palestinian people do not want to face the fact that they are living on foreign land. Yet they still are taking the jobs of the Lebanese and complaining that they are not getting anything. They’re even living under the names of the Lebanese people when they could live under their own names since it wasnt against their own laws to begin with. If they wish to live together in peace then they should be honest people.
See my mindset has always been that Lebanon had no issue with Palestinians living peacefully in Lebanon. The problem is that Israel has come in on multiple occasions and massacred innocent Palestinians (Sabra and Shatila, for instance), which only fuels Hamas’ recruitment.
The other key problem is Syria and its counterpart, Hezbollah, attempting to place Lebanon under Syrian rule. The Syrians hate Israel, but not because they stand in solidarity with Palestinians. The Syrians want to eliminate both the Israelis and the Palestinians and would if they could. Their grip on Lebanon’s government is largely why Lebanon is in its current state.
You can justify your hate all you want at the end Allah will judge you on the scales.
Europe is going through this now. When a country takes you in, you would do well to show them some respect and not make things worse for that country. People are always talking about justice for those that migrate, but no one ever speaks about justice for the host countries, where their citizens often suffer also.
we care about palestine
LOVE.from.pakistan
Maybe invite them to beautiful Pakistan and watch them try and overthrow your government like they did in Jordon and Beirut ?
So the family at about 17:00 had a business and probably their house as a security. The business failed and the house was in danger, so they committed a fraud to have the house secured and now complain about the guy helping them in their fraud for committing a fraud on them? Pretty rich.
this video is completely based on false facts
ashwin rema point them out?
+NORA no 1 the word palestine means jew
no 2 there was never a palestinian state in middle east
no 3 israel wants to live in peace with them
There's also no Saudis , no Jordanian , no Lebanese etc so what's your point ? Modern Arabs are Semitic Melange people and most of their DNA is J Chromosome! They are indigenous to the Levant and mid east !
@@ashwinrema5324 well said
There better of living in israel 🇮🇱
