[@raquelitamunos9573]

"his palestinian band mate Assil"?!? He's from Haifa. An Arab Israeli. With Israeli citizenship. which means he didn't grow up Gazan,Ppalestinian, or underpriviledge, but pretty much with all the rights as any Israeli (like me) has. And the other Israeli Jews? Yeep, Tela Aviv, Ramat Hasharon, basically the "elite" that also do not live near any Arabs (I actually do). Why are you using a war to promote a boy band that otherwise would never have been heard about? Why this extreme black and white view of society?

[@MTx485]

Are the 2 million Arab Israelis inside Israel not Arab enough for you? Wild 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@levac912]

I thought you people claimed that israel was apartheid?

[@DiamondsRexpensive]

I am sorry. What makes you think all Palestinians are underprivileged? More than 50% of them are in Jordan and they're wealthier than Jordanians.

They aren’t Israeli Palestinian band technically… All of them are Israelis with Israeli citizenship none of the Arabs there is a citizen of Palestinian authority… they are Jewish-Arab Israeli band

All of them are Israeli citizens. Jews and Arab Israelis. None of the Arab members in this band are Palestinians from the West Bank or Gaza. Promoting it as a "Israeli-Palestinian" boy band, is a stretch and a cringe PR stunt! No one in Israel or Palestine even heard about this band...

[@מאיהאבונו]

And when will we see such a band on the other side in Judea and Samaria or Gaza..of course you'll only find it in the Israeli side! So where is the apartheeid ? He is definitely onthe Palestinian side

[@SHope-rq1hc]

where are all the jews/israelis in palestine? exactly...

[@rokasdobrovolskis]

Because this band is nothing, but a deep state creation. PR stunt and social engineering. Distraction.

[@MTx485]

Many Israeli Arabs identify as Palestinian. That’s why the apartheid narratives don’t make sense once you scratch the surface even a little bit.

[@Thegabub]

Imagine someone comes in and steals your land, your home, your society, and towns and cities and land... 70 years later, those same people are asking for unity through their "music." Palestinians don't need this. They need and deserve better.

[@mollyfriedman2013]

That’s a very one sided view. Many Jews were living there too and many Jews also lost their homes as a result of war in the 1940’s.. kicked out of the West Bank and all the surrounding middle eastern countries.

[@Thegabub]

@ I looked this up because I’ve never heard of it before. Only source I was able to find was Israeli embassy. In other words, I ain’t buying it until I find other sources. Thanks for trying, tho

[@nahaaniimataal]

If that is so, then name a palestinian King or Ruler from the time of King David? How about during the Roman Empire all the way to the 1800s? How about a President or Prime Minister from 1900? or 1910? 20, 30, 40, 50, 60? No?.... You cannot because there was never in the history of the world was there ever a people or ethnicity known as palestinian. The people who decided to call themselves palestinians today, are Arabs with absolutely no historical claim to the Land of Israel.

Interestingly, the male co-host that railroaded T’Nehasi Coats isn’t there. To me this feels like propaganda because the conflict isn’t an equal fight. One side has all the power, money and arms behind it and the other doesn’t.

[@b.d6642]

One side managed to turn the tables, the other side started the war and is using hostages and children as human shields. Just because one side managed to gain the upper hand, doesn't mean the other side isn't guilty

Ethnic cleansing is the act of using law to force an ethnic group out of a state. Something that Jews experienced many times. There are currently 2 million Arabs living in Israel in a population of 9 million (20% in other words). That's not ethnic cleansing

[@MarkGuadagnino]

This boy band, hot AF as it may be, reeks of cooptation. I am curious to know who its backers are. Do the young Israeli Jewish men even understand that their country has been in a century-long effort to eradicate the Palestinians from their usurped land, and that, short of this, has endeavored to further squeeze more and more Palestinians into smaller and smaller land mass, and that the country has been at this with only increasing support by and coordination with the United States lo these many years? I suggest that they put down the instruments for a little while and pick up anything written by, say, the Israeli writer and historian Ilan Pappe to start learning some hard truths about the country they grew up in, and its settler-colonist history (that persists to this day). You wanna live in harmony? Okay, fine. Then let's first stop the U.S. from giving cover for and encouragement of Israel's apartheid system.

[@CP-oy6wx]

Don't tell us, the Isreali people, our history, we know it pretty well, thank you.

[@b.d6642]

Soooo a few basic history facts that you are ignoring when trying to teach my people about our own country. 1: Jews always existed in the middle east. Arabs also always existed. Palestinians didn't exist in the sense that you are picturing. The only state named Palestine that existed in the middle east was not an Arab states but the British mandait of Palestine that was created by the British after they took control of the land (today known as Israel) from the ottoman empire. The British mandait of Palestine consisted almost exclusively of Jews. 2: Israel doesn't control Gaza. In fact, from 1947 to 1967 the one controlling Gaza was Egypt. Eventually Gaza was given to Israel, but when the Gazans asked to be independent and eventually elected Hamas, Israel agreed imidiatly and forced thousands of Jews out of their homes in Gaza. The reason that the border between Gaza and Israel is closed (which people somehow are claiming is apartheid) is because Gaza is ruled by a terrorist organization. Fun fact: Egypt, an Arab country, also closed it's border with Gaza, and the Egyptian border is closed shut even more than the Israeli one. Before the war there were plenty of Gazans working in Israel, and some of them were even killed on October 7th, which you don't seem to talk about. 3: "Israel is an apartheid state". Yes because as we all know, every apartheid state has mixed neighborhoods, gives equal rights to all ethnic groups, has masques right next to synagogues, and even has an Arab supreme court judge. Yes, Salim joubran, an Arab was a supreme court judge in Israel, he sentenced corrupt Jewish politicians to prison. That could never happen in an apartheid state. Please don't try educating us on our own history, and do basic research. יאללה לך תחפש את החברים שלך, עם ישראל חי
