- The UK government is being urged to make a formal apology for alleged war crimes by British troops in historical Palestine nearly a century ago.
The petition, along with 300 pages of evidence, is being brought by an elderly Palestinian - a former politician - who was shot and wounded by UK forces as a boy; in a case set to reopen debate over the UK’s colonial past.
Tom Bateman's report contains some distressing details:

Wow, I never expected the BBC to talk about this.

@@jamesmichaels4979 no, its not neutral.. thats for sure.
It is very interesting to know the past !!!
Me i watch BBC News every day mainly on TV !!!!
I've just finished watching The Holy land and us bbc2. The stories from the Palestinians who were forced to leave were awful and heartbreaking. It was a very moving and informative documentary. I can't find it here on UA-cam.
Spare us the crocodile tears.
Andalusia and Israel are two territories taken back from Muslims.
Islam thinks it's supreme among the world’s religions and Jews are not equal to Muslims under Islamic law. And yet they now have self determination, autonomy and control in their ancient homeland, a homeland once ruled by Muslims.

This is just a glimpse of the blazing and atrocious atrocities committed
Britishers did more horrible things in their other colonies
Great Britain has a human rights history second to none, being among the first to abolish slavery, give votes to women and ban child labour. We welcomed in huge numbers of persecuted foreigners and treated them as our own. We defeated evil tyrants and dictators over the centuries, often standing alone. So balls to you lot of brainwash victims.

That is the way western values work, ignore your own atrocities until people don't care at all because there is other problems that keep you occupied so then is good timing to release that saying proudly Yes we did bad but compared with our enemies at least we release the things we did bad and apologize you can't see that in (Insert the trending enemy country)

And yet Britain still denies it's responsibility and continues not to pay compensation. Yet Britain loves lecturing others about human rights.

We don't need to pay a thing. And the only people who get angry about us speaking about human rights are countries with poor human rights record.
@@Konoronn That will depend on the British legal system. Don't be surprised if the government loses.
I don't recall the Australian Aboriginals having a poor human rights record, but I'm sure Britain's is longer than your arm. So many massacres in that, you lose count.
@@uberbeeg Your self righteousness is irritating. The crimes of the British government, while of course terrible, were no different than that of other nations during the colonial period, and have no relevance today in terms of conversations about human rights.
There are actual countries committing human rights abuses right now, while Britain isn't, and you're playing into their hands and mirroring their distraction tactics when you bring up historical British atrocities instead of talking about current day atrocities.
@@Konoronn I didn't say they were any different, good too see that you recognise that Britain commited multiple human rights crimes and atrocities.
We live in a world of law now, not one of Empires and all those former colonies do have a legal right to seek compensation.
No different too any group that abuses another.
Funny how everyone expects Russia to pay compensation for it's invasion of Ukraine, but when that rule is applied to former ionvaders, suddenly it's invalid?
That's not how the real world works, but you'll find that out.

As a man born in the UK in Manchester in 1987 and have no understanding of the world back then and certainly wasn't educated in any of this knowledge at all by school or or any other methods I didn't realise it was a very bad course of action taken by the government and political leaders of the time but as a now a man of 35 years old and now being informed of what has happened to people who are really innocent and if they did defend their lives and land in a hostile take over by the British forces then we carried out what is really no difference from the nazis and many other similar groups.. I personally think that we should be honouring the wrongs of the past to make a positive outcome of all the negative actions that have been made back then. Even though its absolutely nothing to do with the my generation and personal responsibility our British forces and political parties have done so much wrong in the past and so many other places in the world its disappointing to hear and it is really disgusting to only be hearing about it all now its a joke... I see why us British people are hated in so many ways that they will never be able to forget unitl we make a positive change for the people in order to forgive but not forget

My own ancestors came from Britain, Scotland, Ireland and the memories of the Scottish Clearances, Irish famine and now where I live in Canada with the atrocious treatment of the First Nations people all make me ashamed.
Britain caused genocides. It's time people learn to understand why past history never gets forgotten.

Previous generations have been well aware of this, although excluding this part of history from text books seems to have been deliberate .. and ultimately hypocritical.
"Britain should be brave too say, 'sorry I did this'"

Not who, what. Historical records.

You're ignoring the Palestinians siding with Nazi Germany to bring genocide to Palestine. I wonder why?
What is the follow up on this case?
It was a different world back then. Using today's viewpoint to judge the past is against the very definition of law.
Matthew 23:29-32 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous. And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started!
People think criticizing the mistakes made by people decades/centuries ago would make them look good. But in fact this very act is in itself evil.

For Pete's sake, it's wonderful to hear about another British colony besides India and Africa. French did it's dirt too in Lebanon and Syria.

What a shamefull stain on the history of a great regiment like the Blackwatch . My uncle was a Colonel in the Blackwatch. I always feel so much pride when I see that tartan. I won't feel that as much anymore. Let's hope the British government has the courage to say sorry, and I believe that my uncle's regiment owes the descendants of these people a written apology. 😔
Tell that to the families of the British soldiers killed in 1938 and thereafter!
Your uncles regiment was notorious for being used in this kind of "police action"...all over the empire.They were good at kicking arse, literally.

The British was also extremely cruel in the Anglo Boere War. They put people in concentration camps where people died of hunger and torture. They cut the farmers animals such as cows and sheep legs off so that they didn't have to use ammunition on the animals.
The British have a taste for the macabre
No different than any of the previous conquering armies, going back how many thousands of years?
2 wrong don't make a right. And we aren't talking about what happens in every war. We are talking about Britain
🤔 Except this wasn’t thousands of years ago. This happened in living memory, in modern times, by people who thought they were better and more civilised. Yet they committed heinous, barbaric crimes against humanity. Thousands of years ago human behaviour was less evolved. Moreover, certain sections of British society still embrace and have fond memories of imperialism. They would never acknowledge how much damage it has done to the world, communities and society.

As a Brit I would like to formally apologise for my ancestors behaviour to the people of Palestine! This needs to be acknowledged so terrible things like this does not happen again!
I'm going to be straight with you m8
I appreciate the apology, but you didn't do it. Its fault of those that came before, and its also the people's fault for supporting it.
Its also going to happen again
Either its the Americans, or the Europeans/Australians
They won't stop their war machine until they run out of oil, its why they keep marching for it.
America has become an Oligarchy or it always used to be, its hard to tell some days if it was always or in the last 70 years.
I recommend doing some research into other Civilizations, such as the islamic, Persian, Chinese and world history in general to get an idea of what is happening and why its happening.
You'll realize its an age old dance by the current day Roman Empire to anyone they don't like, and the Muslims and Jews especially. The more you study, the more you know
worth noting that they're not yet your ancestors. some of the colonial era occupiers are still alive and well just like any other elderly people in UK and the looted money is still probably sitting in national budget right now
No need to apologise. This is very one sided. The BBC can talk about attrocities in Palestine decades ago but notice it's ignoring the ruthless butchery of homosexuals in the Palestine territories today? A gay man was beheaded just this week. I understand beheading is quite popular in the territories for gay people.

That act is no on th peace page: 😢
The British started the ongoing Palestinian Nakba and the Israelies continue it to this day. The Nakba is an Arabic word meaning “catastrophe” and refers to Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestine, its exiling of Palestinians and making them into refugees, its dispossession of Palestinian property, its destruction of Palestinian cities, towns, and villages, and its attempt to erase the existence of the Palestinian people.
You're an ignorant fool. The grand Mufti of Palestine was collaborating with Hitler to genocide the J population of Palestine before Israel was even a country.
Erm, no. Palestinians use the word Nakba to describe their failed attempt to destroy the state of Israel. The majority of the Palestinians fled to neighbouring Arab countries, so your claim of Palestinians being expelled is nonsensical. As for ethnic cleansing, how many Jews live in Gaza, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, or the West Bank compared to the 2 million Palestinians living in Israel?!!
@@roy9386 exactly, it's the standard Islamic shuffle, to deflect away from the supremacist cult. No mention of collaboration with Hitler, either.

What about the beheading of ANOTHER gay man in the Palestinian territories this week?
Somewhere deep in the bowels of the BBC is a top secret document that could explain a great deal about the corporation's decision to boycott the aid appeal for Gaza. It is called the Balen Report and has been seen only by a small number of individuals at the very top of the BBC. They commissioned Malcolm Balen, a senior editorial adviser, to investigate allegations that the BBC's coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was biased.
Balen examined hundreds of hours of broadcast material, television and radio, and analysed the content in minute detail, often scrutinising journalists' individual phrases and choice of words. He then put his conclusions in a 20,000-word report. If BBC executives had hoped for a clean bill of health they were to be disappointed. Balen's findings, given highly restricted circulation at the end of 2004, were frightening.
Although they were kept secret, elements leaked out, including Balen's conclusion that the BBC's Middle East coverage had been biased against Israel.
The enormity of this can hardly be overstated. Apart from the corporation's legal obligation to be impartial, it had struggled for years to counter allegations that its reporting favoured the Palestinians. The claims meshed with attacks on the BBC for being Left-leaning and undermining its own legitimacy by harbouring a secret liberal agenda. Bosses at the corporation ordered Balen's report to be locked away. When an effort was made to make its findings public through Freedom of Information laws, the BBC spent £200,000 on a legal fight to keep it secret.
The timing of it could hardly have been worse. Balen's findings arrived as the BBC was trying to put the turmoil of the Hutton inquiry behind it. The corporation's chairman and director-general Greg Dyke had been forced to resign over what Lord Hutton decided was an issue of flawed reporting, although most journalists, at least, believe Lord Hutton was the one who got it wrong.
Why wait for the BBC?
How can we help?
Stop funding Israel 🇮🇱
Britain. Creators of the Concentration Camp.
I'm not sure that attribution is genuine. Global history is packed with atrocities.
@@sharonsmith1783 they did create them but it was the original sense just a camp to concentrate a population on a small area...
the germans used it... to yeah ...
its like "labor camps".
the germans called it that but in reality it was more than often a cliff to throw people off....
@@sharonsmith1783 Britain did in fact create concentration camps in South Africa during the Anglo-Boer war 1899-1902. South West Africa (now Namibia) was a German colony and the Germans simply took a page out of Britain's playbook just as Russia is taking a page out of USA's playbook in Ukraine. Remember when the war started in Ukraine, Putin told his soldiers that the people of Ukraine will welcome them with flowers and chocolate. American soldiers were told the same thing when they invaded Iraq.
'Might makes right', that's what history teaches us.
Britain has never answered for the atrocities it committed against colonized nations.
@@sharonsmith1783
100% fact. Created during the Boer war.
Yeah, don't think that's right Mr. Kim. The first proper use case of concentration camps should be attributed to the Americans as a result of the US Civil War, which killed many times more people than the camps in South Africa; however the term 'concentration camp' did arise from the Anglo-Boer war. The US also used similar camps during the American-Philippine war which occurred roughly the same few years the Second Anglo-Boer War was conducted -- however their camps were more luxurious. That said, American atrocities committed in the Philippines also resulted in many times greater casualties than British exploits in South Africa. Overall, 200,000-250,000 civilians are thought to have died during the American Philippine war, meanwhile 50,000 civilians are thought to have died during the Second Anglo-Boer war. That includes 10,000 persons that are thought to have perished in American concentration camps, and 25,000 persons that are thought to have perished in British concentration camps. Overall, 300,000 Filipinos were relocated into American concentration camps, whilst 100,000 South Africans/Boers were relocated into British concentration camps.
That means the death rate in British camps were many times higher than in most American camps, however civilian deaths overall during the American-Philippine war far exceed civilian deaths during the Second Anglo-Boer war. Anyway, said camps were meant originally to house civilians to help the military differentiate them from insurgents and protect civilians from scorched-earth policies that targeted insurgents.
As this is being reported by the BBC I would strongly suggest you look into what really happened. The BBCs reputation for honest reporting is in tatters unfortunately
Indeed.

This is a news to me and something I was never taught during world history in the _Interwar_ _Years._ I'm glad the BBC has decided to cover the negative aspects and atrocities of the British Empire, including potential crimes against humanity committed during the era of colonialism and the _British_ _Mandate_ in Palestine.
It's been nearly a month since the Queen died, and although I wasn't part of the crowd who thought it was appropriate to criticize her role and involvement in the British Commonwealth, I couldn't help but notice the sizable minority condemning her. Although she was still very popular around the globe, I think a large part of the world considers her as a head of government like the US President instead of an impartial figurehead.
I'm not giving the UK government, foreign diplomats, or the Royal Family a free pass, but I would think these would be the type of "forgotten atrocities," committed by the UK/British Commonwealth that require official acknowledgement, and if possible, appropriate redress.
I just don't see how a constitutional monarchy in a liberal democracy with parliamentary supremacy is the party ultimately responsible for damages and losses committed at the direction of UK government ministers and private business profiting from imperialism.
and those colonial times may have once been considered as pre modern; Diego Garcia wasn't and isn't.
For most of the rest of the world where Britain caused genocides, it wouldn't be the crown which would be held accountable, but for the First Nations people in Canada, it is the Crown that signed agreements, legally binding, with the First Nations people.

Palestine has been occupied since 1917 because of the Balfour Declaration
I hope the British have the courage to face this, and quite frankly in doing so to shame the Israelis, if that's possible anymore.
You can not shame the shameless.
Shaming the Islamists over their supremacism and genocides is a lot harder. But, let's ignore the fact the Palestinians sided with the Nazis during WWII and they keep voting in parties that wasn't genocide, shall we?
Britain is just used as it’s the one that’s fresh in people’s memories
There’s been empires since the dawn of time that have committed just as worse
This is only talked about because it’s recent. Mongols, romans, Greeks, Egyptians..
@@danh555 it's also because the West of reflective. Turkey abolished slavery under pressure from Britain much more recently. They're just shameless and don't care.
@@danh555 "just as worse" you are really acting as if these "atrocities" are bad lol. Britain was not brutal, it was fair. The Arabs and Jews shouldn't have constantly revolted

What about the Atrocities in Africa 😢😢😢❓When will there be reparations, restitution and Justice❓… not to talk of Asia and almost all territories of this world…
Works both ways. What about the African slave traders who took people from Britain and took back to Africa. Not all slave are/were from Africa.
When will Africa apologise to Britain?
@@tonysmall3863 nonsense. Perhaps your ancestors were slave traders and you speaking from a guilty conscience. Lies will never cover the blatant truth.
The millions of Africans running around with machetes in Europe enriching us is your reparations, buddy.
What attrocities in Africa? You mean Britain stopping Africans selling and sacrificing each other?
Britain literally forced half the world to stop slaving, including half of Africa.
simple and good work. is this british & bbc democracy against british or a new british opening? newertheless palestinian history is so hurted, hard and deep that british had responsible! thank you.
There is no time limit in the definition of colonialism therefor the British will always be considered colonialists in Australia. And the Palestinian are no exception the Arabs occupied Palestine by force in the seventh century and brought a different language, a different culture and a different genetics. The origin of Arab culture is in the Arabian Peninsula The source of the Arabic language is in the Arabian Peninsula The source of the religion of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula. On the other hand, the Jews' cultural and genetic origin and the language of the Jews were all created in Levant (Palestine). They did not come from outside, but were created in Levant (Palestine). The Hebrew language is the only Canaanite language that survived. The Jews lived in the land continuously before the Arabs before Islam and Christianity. Jews are considered indigenous by definition because the origin of the Hebrew language, The culture and religion of the Jews originated in the Levant.
True, Jews have been a minority among Muslims and Christians most of the years but the fact that they are a minority does not negate their seniority they are the oldest residents. And the fact that the Arabs are a majority does not make them natives they will always be colonialists like the British in Australia.
The palestinian try to change the defenition of colonialism so that because it happened long ago in the seventh century they became natives. There is no time limit to colonialism and they are not considered natives under the definition.!
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Palestine has been Freed.............It’s always been Israel.❤❤✡✡❤❤ come visit one day... I make you some nice Hummus.....

Well done BBC. This is only one story of hundreds in the 100 years of Palestinian suffering at the hands of the Britain and later Israel. It’s as bad today as it was then.
You Nazi sympathisers love to point at the British.
The Palestinians are the colonisers. They're also fascists.
The horror of colonialism is no worse than the Holocaust
Well done bbc !!! Most of the people in the comments section happy to know history !!!
“I do not agree that the dog in a manger (the Palestinian)has the final right to the manger, even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place.” _Winston Churchill - giving evidence to the Palestine Royal Commission in 1936_ Shocking 🥲
The question remains, why the violence started whereas it hadn't been observed earlier?
Britain should be ashamed of this and their continued no-help for Palestine.
Is this included in the history syllabus for school students?
No we teach them about Fred Leichter, David Irving and Ernst Zundel.... We are getting pretty based.
no, but there are different parts on colonialism and British controlled slavery
No because UK, USA, France, Canada back the Israeli government and the Jewish people who want to live in the Israeli territory. Revealing the history, brutality, human rights abuses from the past and the present will mean a rethinking of the people in Palestine.
probably not. teaching about historical victimisation of palestinians would be detrimental to today's anti-palestinian stance of britain. I think beitain likes to only acknowledge doing this sort of thing in india, and then not talk about other colonies.
@@Ass_of_Amalek I don't think that's particularly true. I just think that British colonialism was so widespread and long lasting that there's not enough room in the history curriculum, or enough attention people are willing to give in the news, to learn about all the atrocities. The slave trade and Indian partition are focused on the most because they were some of the largest and deadliest events

@@goldenvulture6818 why keep using that as an excuse. You speak like a true prod trying to compare your atrocities to others. We aren't talking about others
These atrocities are just as important as the Holocaust, actually, in my opinion is more important because it shows us those who are persecuted can and will persecute others. Israel is committing crimes to the Palestinians today, so is the UK, US & Canada, among others, by not acting to stop it. Keep educating us.
How can they be as important as something that did not happen?
😂😂😂
JustBe Just because you 'say' the UK, US and Canada is committing atrocities against the "Palestinians" doesn't make it so. You can moan and whine all you want, but Arabs have NO problem dishing it out to others, just ask the minorities
like the Copts, Jews and Yazidis who have the misfortune to live amongst you.
Arab govts tossed out 800K Arab Jews who had lived in Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Iraq, Libya, Morocco, Yemen for 1500+- years, and lived their BEFORE the rise of islam. They got expelled because Jews elsewhere dreamed of a state of our own. They looked like their neighbours and spoke Arabic. This was in the 1940's, LONG BEFORE THE SOI WAS FOUNDED. How dare the Jews dream?
Why don't we speak about THEIR suffering, the camps they're staying in, the generations of Jews stuck there.............Oh wait. They were not allowed to stay near their countries borders, could not do a damn thing about losing their homes, businesses, bank accounts, cars, personal wealth all STRIPPED AWAY FROM
THEM. So they emigrated and started new lives with what they had left.
Better that than to be forced to stay in DP camps because fellow Muslims dont want them around, or refuse them the chance to start again, gain citizenship and safety and build a life. No it's better to live in squalor in a DP camp, become a pawn and a professional refugee and live off UNWRA charity and be able to pass your refugee status to your children and grandchildren.
You'll get yours back when we get ours. And since we've been waiting longer, I suggest you take a number.
All crimes are important. But the holocaust is highlighted for scale and systematic aims of it... ; they are not therefore directly comparable..
It's comparable because of the actions of the government of Israel which has been found in law to operate an apartheid system, and operating the world's largest outdoor prisons in Gaza.

Denmark has been accused of racism after it changed a law barring refugees from certain areas to free up accommodation for people fleeing the war in Ukraine.
Denmark introduced a policy three years ago that sought to restrict immigrants from moving into what are described as disadvantaged areas. It has led to some "non-western" people being evicted.
Last week, the government voted to amend the policy to allow Ukrainian refugees access to the homes. It has pledged to take in 100,000 refugees fleeing the war.
Susheela Math, a litigation officer at campaign group the Justice Initiative, which is against forced evictions, said the move showed the policy was "racially inequitable and unnecessary".

Still happening today but it's not the British this time!
It's really hard to accept that your own country has committed atrocities of this nature. I studied post-colonial theory for 3 years and I would like to recommend that everyone reads two books by Palestinian author Edward Said: Culture and Imperialism, and Orientalism. Only after reading those texts was I able to see past my nationalistic, rose tinted, red white and blue spectacles, which I previously thought held the absolute truth.
Yes, it's hard for Palestinians to even mention the attrocities committed in their territories today, like the beheading of a gay man this week in the West Bank.
Thanks for the heads up on those 2 books. I'll look into them.
And Britain was by far the least brutal superpower for the time they also took on a huge debt to end the global slave trade which Britain only finished paying in 2017.
It shouldn't be laid to rest, it matters because the tactics used by the British authorities and army from 1919 onwards are being used today by the Israeli occupation forces: curfews, restrictions of access and movement *checkpoints), house demolitions, collective punishment, imprisonment without trial, imposition of a military court system (even against children). It's not over. And Britain fails to accept its role and responsibility then and now. We have a PM who says at the recent Conservative Party Conference/CFoI event "I am a huge Zionist...I am a huge supported of Israel" and is even considering relocating the British Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, directly flouting international law. It's a disgrace that these tactics used 106 / 75 years ago are being used today and the British government only expresses "concern" (occasionally) whilst stifling peaceful resistance with its anti-BDS legislation. The Labour Party leadership has done nothing to change the situation either preferring to expel progressive Jews who argue for equal rights and justice for the Palestinians as well as peace. SO YES IT MATTERS because it's STILL RELEVANT!
I don't think Liz Truss said anything of the sort. Also its nearly 100 years ago....
Of course the British army did some atrocious, same as Elsewhere. NI eg.
but they did not want to be there, and both the zionist and the arabs were doing gorilla warfare against British soldiers.
it was a loose loose situation where neither the Zionists or the Palestinians wanted them there.
The Balfour agreement was done in good faith to enable BOTH a Palestinian and Israeli state to be set up, but it was too hard to achieve, and Britain had lots of other problems to deal with...
@@rivergladesgardenrailroad8834 Britain got them selves into this mess when they agreed with the Arabs to get rid of the ottoman empire and give them a nation because they felt threatened. if they didn't, we wouldn't be in this situation. everywhere the British have gone, they've cause trouble

shame on british
How you can now proud of that Great Britain is a good country.. You cannot proud with your history if you did such kind of things.
And still do
You only know about these atrocities because Britain is a Democracy with free speech more or less, in other countries which still commit mass murders which have no freedom of speech no one can talk about it as freely... so their "record" is clean when it comes to the media... they even get to be key speakers on human rights in the UN...
Because it was still better than the supremacist cult of Islam. Only this week in the Palestinian territories ANOTHER homosexual was murdered, by beheading. The favoured way to kill homosexuals in Palestine.
I can be proud because my nation is one of the most influential and inventive in human history.
The Balfour agreement was supposed to protect Palestine....
Awful. My father was always convinced that the Attlee Government didn't want Palestine to become Israel.
Every country that the brits touch has tragedies like this.
Your ignorance should embarrass your family.
I’ve got a photo album of my grandfather in Palestine with many locals. He never mentioned anything like this, and he had the photos to prove they did love the British soldiers there too.
Are you sticking to the photos and words of your grandad or the words of those who experienced it?
Must've been a privileged collaborator from the city then. You'll find people like that in all the previous colonies.
There's many sides to this story. In particular, deliberately ignored is the fact terrorist acts were happening everywhere, and the fact the Palestinians had been siding with the Nazis.
photoshoped maybe
I support western leftists of fixing the mess of right wingers and conservatives.
At that time 'Palestinians' meant Jews. It wasn't until Arafat's influence in the late 60's they wanted to 'identify' as Palestinians...before that the Arabs wanted to be known as Jordanians or Syrians....NOT Palestinian.
