Yes, there was relative peace between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the region historically known as Palestine (modern-day Israel and the Palestinian territories) before the rise of modern Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This period of coexistence, especially under the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917), was characterized by a system where religious communities lived alongside each other, often in harmony, though with some degree of social and political hierarchy. 1. Ottoman Rule (1517-1917) Under the Ottoman Empire, Palestine was part of a larger empire that governed many different religious and ethnic groups. The millet system allowed different religious communities (Muslims, Christians, Jews) to govern themselves in matters of personal law (marriage, divorce, inheritance) and religious practice. Muslims were the majority, while Jews and Christians were dhimmi (non-Muslim protected people). While dhimmis had fewer political rights than Muslims and paid a special tax (jizya), they were generally allowed to practice their religion and manage their own communities without major interference. 2. Social and Religious Coexistence Coexistence in Cities: In cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, and Safed, Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived in close proximity, each with their own religious sites and neighborhoods. There were established Jewish communities, known as the Old Yishuv, which had lived in Palestine for centuries, particularly for religious reasons, rather than for political sovereignty. Economic Interdependence: Muslims, Christians, and Jews were often economically interdependent. They traded, engaged in agriculture, and shared social and cultural spaces. This practical interdependence fostered a kind of peaceful coexistence, although it did not necessarily indicate full equality or the absence of any local tensions. 3. Localized Tensions and Hierarchies While there was relative peace, this period was not entirely without tension. Minor conflicts sometimes arose, often based on local issues like land disputes, economic competition, or grievances within the religious hierarchy. However, these conflicts were typically resolved through negotiation or the legal systems of the Ottoman Empire. Importantly, these tensions were not driven by large-scale political or nationalistic ambitions, as would later be the case with the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism. 4. Jewish Presence Before Zionism Jewish Communities: Before modern Zionism, the Jewish community in Palestine was small, representing about 3-5% of the population in the mid-19th century. These communities were mostly religious Jews living in cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, Tiberias, and Safed. They were integrated into the broader fabric of Palestinian society without the goal of creating a political state. Jews in Palestine during this time were not seen as a political threat, and their presence was generally accepted by the Muslim majority and the Christian minority. 5. The Shift with Modern Zionism The situation changed with the rise of the Zionist movement in the late 19th century, which advocated for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Zionist leaders, such as Theodor Herzl, called for large-scale Jewish immigration and the development of a Jewish state. Jewish Immigration and Land Purchases: Beginning in the 1880s, waves of Jewish immigrants (in what became known as the First Aliyah) arrived in Palestine. Zionist organizations bought large tracts of land, often displacing Palestinian Arab tenant farmers who had lived on the land for generations. This began to create tensions between the Jewish immigrants and the local Arab population (both Muslim and Christian). 6. Rise of Nationalist Tensions By the early 20th century, the previously peaceful coexistence started to break down as Jewish immigration increased and the Zionist project became more visible. The local Arab population, which had previously coexisted with smaller Jewish communities, began to perceive the Zionist movement as a threat to their land, political power, and way of life. The growing Zionist presence coincided with the rise of Arab nationalism, and the idea of Palestinian national identity began to form in response to both Zionism and British colonial rule after World War I. Summary Before the arrival of modern Zionism in the late 19th century, there was relative peace and coexistence between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in Palestine, particularly under Ottoman rule. While there were social and political hierarchies, local tensions, and occasional conflicts, these were not based on the nationalistic and territorial struggles that emerged later with the rise of Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration. The introduction of Zionism and the push for a Jewish homeland began to shift the dynamics in the region, leading to increasing tensions and conflict in the 20th century.

Chatgpt Yes, there was relative peace between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the region historically known as Palestine (modern-day Israel and the Palestinian territories) before the rise of modern Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This period of coexistence, especially under the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917), was characterized by a system where religious communities lived alongside each other, often in harmony, though with some degree of social and political hierarchy. 1. Ottoman Rule (1517-1917) Under the Ottoman Empire, Palestine was part of a larger empire that governed many different religious and ethnic groups. The millet system allowed different religious communities (Muslims, Christians, Jews) to govern themselves in matters of personal law (marriage, divorce, inheritance) and religious practice. Muslims were the majority, while Jews and Christians were dhimmi (non-Muslim protected people). While dhimmis had fewer political rights than Muslims and paid a special tax (jizya), they were generally allowed to practice their religion and manage their own communities without major interference. 2. Social and Religious Coexistence Coexistence in Cities: In cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, and Safed, Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived in close proximity, each with their own religious sites and neighborhoods. There were established Jewish communities, known as the Old Yishuv, which had lived in Palestine for centuries, particularly for religious reasons, rather than for political sovereignty. Economic Interdependence: Muslims, Christians, and Jews were often economically interdependent. They traded, engaged in agriculture, and shared social and cultural spaces. This practical interdependence fostered a kind of peaceful coexistence, although it did not necessarily indicate full equality or the absence of any local tensions. 3. Localized Tensions and Hierarchies While there was relative peace, this period was not entirely without tension. Minor conflicts sometimes arose, often based on local issues like land disputes, economic competition, or grievances within the religious hierarchy. However, these conflicts were typically resolved through negotiation or the legal systems of the Ottoman Empire. Importantly, these tensions were not driven by large-scale political or nationalistic ambitions, as would later be the case with the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism. 4. Jewish Presence Before Zionism Jewish Communities: Before modern Zionism, the Jewish community in Palestine was small, representing about 3-5% of the population in the mid-19th century. These communities were mostly religious Jews living in cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, Tiberias, and Safed. They were integrated into the broader fabric of Palestinian society without the goal of creating a political state. Jews in Palestine during this time were not seen as a political threat, and their presence was generally accepted by the Muslim majority and the Christian minority. 5. The Shift with Modern Zionism The situation changed with the rise of the Zionist movement in the late 19th century, which advocated for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Zionist leaders, such as Theodor Herzl, called for large-scale Jewish immigration and the development of a Jewish state. Jewish Immigration and Land Purchases: Beginning in the 1880s, waves of Jewish immigrants (in what became known as the First Aliyah) arrived in Palestine. Zionist organizations bought large tracts of land, often displacing Palestinian Arab tenant farmers who had lived on the land for generations. This began to create tensions between the Jewish immigrants and the local Arab population (both Muslim and Christian). 6. Rise of Nationalist Tensions By the early 20th century, the previously peaceful coexistence started to break down as Jewish immigration increased and the Zionist project became more visible. The local Arab population, which had previously coexisted with smaller Jewish communities, began to perceive the Zionist movement as a threat to their land, political power, and way of life. The growing Zionist presence coincided with the rise of Arab nationalism, and the idea of Palestinian national identity began to form in response to both Zionism and British colonial rule after World War I. Summary Before the arrival of modern Zionism in the late 19th century, there was relative peace and coexistence between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in Palestine, particularly under Ottoman rule. While there were social and political hierarchies, local tensions, and occasional conflicts, these were not based on the nationalistic and territorial struggles that emerged later with the rise of Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration. The introduction of Zionism and the push for a Jewish homeland began to shift the dynamics in the region, leading to increasing tensions and conflict in the 20th century. Zionism is the core problem not Judaism

Simcha, as a non-Jew, non-Arab I have researched the Israel-Palestine conflict since October 7th and have to agree with everything you said in this video. With regards to the "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" taken from the HAMAS charter, I would recommend that people who believe this should read the rest of the HAMAS charter which includes the destruction of Israel and the killing of all the Jews in Israel. Hardly a peaceful or accomodating ideology. Another problem is that in the islamic religion they do not believe that any land that once was occupied by muslims can ever be anything else. Also the moslem brotherhood has the slogan "Muslim should dominate not be dominated". So when Egypt ruled GAZA there was no problem with the local arab "Palestinians". Once it came under Israeli control all hell broke loose even though they were treated better by the Israelis.

[@moonshinesa8234]

It may sound strange but the reason that Israelis thought all would be well if the Arabs were treated the same as Jews, is because Jews were not taught to hate others from an early age. Today Israelis may have learned that they cannot “blindly believe” that Arabs don’t hate Jews and just want a chance to live in peace, because,sadly, it’s just not true. I wish someone somewhere could find a way to undo the harm done to Pale stinian children and free them from hating those they don’t even know. Their lives would improve 100% and Israeli lives would also improve. They wouldn’t have to keep running to bomb shelters, waste money on defensive weapons - they could use that money to build better lives for everyone in that area. Challenge to the wealthy: Please offer a substantial reward for anyone coming up with a workable solution to undo years of taught hatred. Both you and the person finding a solution would be heroes, better than Batman, smarter than Superman, more wonderful than Wonder Woman.

Chatgpt Yes, there was relative peace between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the region historically known as Palestine (modern-day Israel and the Palestinian territories) before the rise of modern Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This period of coexistence, especially under the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917), was characterized by a system where religious communities lived alongside each other, often in harmony, though with some degree of social and political hierarchy. 1. Ottoman Rule (1517-1917) Under the Ottoman Empire, Palestine was part of a larger empire that governed many different religious and ethnic groups. The millet system allowed different religious communities (Muslims, Christians, Jews) to govern themselves in matters of personal law (marriage, divorce, inheritance) and religious practice. Muslims were the majority, while Jews and Christians were dhimmi (non-Muslim protected people). While dhimmis had fewer political rights than Muslims and paid a special tax (jizya), they were generally allowed to practice their religion and manage their own communities without major interference. 2. Social and Religious Coexistence Coexistence in Cities: In cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, and Safed, Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived in close proximity, each with their own religious sites and neighborhoods. There were established Jewish communities, known as the Old Yishuv, which had lived in Palestine for centuries, particularly for religious reasons, rather than for political sovereignty. Economic Interdependence: Muslims, Christians, and Jews were often economically interdependent. They traded, engaged in agriculture, and shared social and cultural spaces. This practical interdependence fostered a kind of peaceful coexistence, although it did not necessarily indicate full equality or the absence of any local tensions. 3. Localized Tensions and Hierarchies While there was relative peace, this period was not entirely without tension. Minor conflicts sometimes arose, often based on local issues like land disputes, economic competition, or grievances within the religious hierarchy. However, these conflicts were typically resolved through negotiation or the legal systems of the Ottoman Empire. Importantly, these tensions were not driven by large-scale political or nationalistic ambitions, as would later be the case with the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism. 4. Jewish Presence Before Zionism Jewish Communities: Before modern Zionism, the Jewish community in Palestine was small, representing about 3-5% of the population in the mid-19th century. These communities were mostly religious Jews living in cities like Jerusalem, Hebron, Tiberias, and Safed. They were integrated into the broader fabric of Palestinian society without the goal of creating a political state. Jews in Palestine during this time were not seen as a political threat, and their presence was generally accepted by the Muslim majority and the Christian minority. 5. The Shift with Modern Zionism The situation changed with the rise of the Zionist movement in the late 19th century, which advocated for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Zionist leaders, such as Theodor Herzl, called for large-scale Jewish immigration and the development of a Jewish state. Jewish Immigration and Land Purchases: Beginning in the 1880s, waves of Jewish immigrants (in what became known as the First Aliyah) arrived in Palestine. Zionist organizations bought large tracts of land, often displacing Palestinian Arab tenant farmers who had lived on the land for generations. This began to create tensions between the Jewish immigrants and the local Arab population (both Muslim and Christian). 6. Rise of Nationalist Tensions By the early 20th century, the previously peaceful coexistence started to break down as Jewish immigration increased and the Zionist project became more visible. The local Arab population, which had previously coexisted with smaller Jewish communities, began to perceive the Zionist movement as a threat to their land, political power, and way of life. The growing Zionist presence coincided with the rise of Arab nationalism, and the idea of Palestinian national identity began to form in response to both Zionism and British colonial rule after World War I. Summary Before the arrival of modern Zionism in the late 19th century, there was relative peace and coexistence between Christians, Jews, and Muslims in Palestine, particularly under Ottoman rule. While there were social and political hierarchies, local tensions, and occasional conflicts, these were not based on the nationalistic and territorial struggles that emerged later with the rise of Zionism and large-scale Jewish immigration. The introduction of Zionism and the push for a Jewish homeland began to shift the dynamics in the region, leading to increasing tensions and conflict in the 20th century. Zionism is the core problem not Judaism

Kia ora! I'm a Christian but I'm appalled at Christendom's naive belief that Jews can do no wrong. God's chosen people? 'Not all those of Israel are Israel' -Romans 9:6. Also Matthew 23:37. Just type 'Nakba' in YT's search box, and learn of the beginning of what's been a slow strangulation -the world's longest apartheid of one people oppressing another. "Why should the [Palestinians] make peace? If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel, that is natural. We have taken their country. Sure, God promised it to us, but what does that matter to them? Our God is not theirs. We come from Israel, it's true, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There's been anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?" -David Ben Gurion, (leading founder of Israel and it's first prime minister. Like many Zionists, he was an atheist. ....'Most Zionists don't believe God exists, but they do believe he promised them Palestine!' -IIan Pappe, Jewish, Professor of History, University of Exeter. His many books include *'The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine'* and Gaza in Crisis (with Prof. Noam Chomsky -Jewish historian). “Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves … politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves… The *country* is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down, and in their view we want to take away from them their *country.”* -David Ben Gurion I think the world naively presumed Jews, after suffering unspeakable abuse in WW2, would in turn never become abusers. “The Nazis made me afraid to be a Jew, Israelis made me ashamed to be a Jew.” -Dr Israel Shahak.
