I thought I understood this conflict, but all I know is that the world is a complex place with no easy answer

Do you know how I see it I see palestine as child who was raped all his childhood taking his rights of living away from him and even demand him to be silent if he wants it survive , And what usually happen to humans getting abused that long oh yeah it drives them mad and they rebel.

Thank you for your comments Rawan. I empathize with the loss that many have suffered as a result of the events of the 20th and 21st century and I totally understand why people would be angry in regards to the losses suffered. The challenge for me is the nature of some of the responses to those losses. Many peoples in history have suffered and continue to suffered loss (e.g. Kurds, Armenians, Yazidis, etc.) but not every people responds by taking out their frustrations, anger, etc. on civilians and non-combatants.

@@Forcriticalthinkersseries what do expect an invading army to be treated with flowers? Isreali occupation forces has been there for 50 years and they seem to be expanding there footprint, it's a slow moving ethnic cleansing by ethnostate that wants more territory.

@@g1y3 Based on the exploding population growth of palestinians in gaza and the west bank i think the idea of ethnic cleansing taking place is ridiculous lol

Ok now I call BS. The Second Infitada was a direct result Ariel Sharon and his Security team visiting the Temple Mount. This was direct and deliberate attempt to undermine the Pease Process. I object to the usage of the phrase in the title, "Critical Thinking", which means "the objective analysis and evaluation of an issue in order to form a judgment.". A well thought out, non biased, or true "critical thinking" book or documenty is badly needed, sadly this is not it.

[@ayol1011]

@@jayremyjuarez5652 at this point a third unbiased party should play a hand. This problem have gone beyond the facet of religion and have become a power grab attempt by the people in power. On the Israeli side the prime minister is on bribery trial yet somehow championing the idea that he is fair. On the Palestinian side there is a govermant that cries that they need shelter yet have no problem buying ridiculous amount of rockets. I must say that the war itself is much more intricate than how I summarised. But honestly I feel like more of this problem lies with this Israeli government. They took land that aren't theirs and they bullies the opposition. Its not even a 100 years but they have become what they gated. Fascist.

He sounds so bias to Israeli side in this video, it’s so clear

[@brrt]

For real, also the Animations as if these Rockets only come from Hamas and so many Israelis got killed when the casualties on Palestinian side are up to 100 time higher. And no, I mean 100.

@Syed Rehan Ali Khan Not really. Im Palestinian from the west bank and that is complete BS.

[@yazsam4259]

@Syed Rehan Ali Khan Alot of innaccuracies and facts left out. it also sort of comes from a zionist narrative. Notice how it is always israel on the defensive. when in fact many times israels provocations and many atrocities commited by them that caused such a strong reaction from Palestinians.

[@davidgozal5147]

I’m an Israel living in Israel My friend I would like you to tell me about those inaccuracies please I would love if it will be in detailed and backed by historical reports please. Thank you very much 🙏

FALSE INFORMATION. I am a citizen of the Russian Federation that has been living in Lebanon for more than 20 years now and never seen or heard that the Political Anti-Zionist Muslim Defense Party "Hezbullah" have ever used hospitals, places of worship, public buildings, etc. (Whatever is mentioned in the video) as the place to fire its rockets from. In fact, I have never seen Hezbollah using any of their rockets in the first place, it always has been a response to some of IDF attacks on Lebanon. Just for the record when you say Arab, don't just use the Muslim Moon, as a significant consideration that most of the Arab countries have plenty of Christians living in it.

[@lisadobecki9453]

Why don't the Palestinians understand when you lose a war, that land is the winners? Why can't the understand that?

[@LukeMaynes]

If that's the case then the Palestinians are justified in using violence to retake the land. If they win, the land will be theirs. They would have won in the first place if the US hadn't sided with the Israelis because they thought it would get Jesus to come back.
