And THEN when Amin Al Husseini escapes to BERLIN and RECRUITS Muslims to the 13th WAFFEN SS Div, who go on to commit atrocities that even Himmler was "disturbed" about, all of which left Al Husseini charged with War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity in 1946 Yet he was conveniently allowed to escape and disappear.....Dean Acheson's "White Paper" Dossier on him never WAS released, was it

They are not innocent, but yes, they are victims, and certainly not victims of Israel. This is a consequence of being brought up surrounded by cancerous ideologies like Islam and its intolerant doctrine, and by electing severely corrupted leaders. Israel is not out to harm Arabs, which is evidenced by the 2 million Arabs that live relatively peacefully in Israel. Where on the other hand, Jews have been rejected by all Arab nations. You wouldn't allow someone to just knife you, would you? You'd try to stop them. What would you do if they told they they're going to keep trying? I bet you'd keep holding them down, even if you broke their arms. Does that sound ridiculous to you?

The idea of a Jewish National Homeland was put formally in place in the early 1900s. It was agreed to by Emir-King Feisal ibn-Husseini as shown in the Feisal-Weizmann Agreement. It was signed by both parties on January 3rd, 1919. It included provisions for Jewish immigration, as it was understood that they needed a homeland. King Feisal was not a British puppet king. He was the most prominent and respected Arab leader at the time, by Arabs as well as other peoples. He was the King of all Arabia and the Hajaz and the Grand Sharif of Mecca. The Jews and the Arabs fought together for their independence in WWI against the harsh and oppressive Ottoman Empire. The understanding was that the Jews would get a territory sufficient for their religion and their people, and that the Arabs would get all the other Ottoman territories which are very extensive and about twenty times larger than what was to become the Jewish State. This has been fulfilled on the Arab side of the agreement. It has yet to be fulfilled for the Jews. Most Palestinians who are in Israel now, came during the first half of the 20th century, for better job opportunities and perhaps as interlopers taking over and taking claim and credit for the improvements the Jews were making to Israel. This is reflected in their surnames which are from other and surrounding countries. One of the most common Palestinian surnames is Al-Masri. In Arabic, Al-Masri literally means "the Egyptian." You'll also see Palestinians named Hourani (from Houran in southern Syria), Tzurani (from Tyre in southern Lebanon), Zrakawi (from Mazraka in Jordan), Hijazi (from the Hijaz province of the Arabian peninsula), Mughrabi (from the Maghreb) Elmisri (Egyptian), Chalabi (Syrian), Mugrabi (North Africa), Habash (Ethiopia), and many other names that point to their true geographical origins. It was originally intended that the Jewish people would receive all of what is now Israel and the area that is now Jordan as well. The Arabs didn't accept this. In 1922 Winston Churchill put in place the first Two-State-Solution which could be called Israel-Jordan. The Israelis were to receive Israel and the people who are now called Palestinians did receive Jordan. Jordan is two times larger than Israel. Today two-thirds of the population of Jordan are Palestinians. Again the Muslims would not accept this, and riots and fighting broke out. 1933 saw the rise of Nazism and Hitler. World War Two took over much of the world's energy and consciousness between 1939 and 1945. Palestinian Arabs collaborated with the Nazis during this time and helped to promote and instigate the Holocaust. Their leading Supreme Mufti, Amin al-Husseini, met with Hitler and his high-ranking officials several times and helped to recruit Muslims into the Nazi forces. He continued his anti-Israeli propaganda until 1974 when he died. WWII and the Holocaust ended in 1945. In 1948 the UN, now in control of the area, put in place the second Two-State-Solution, which gave the people who are now called Palestinians good portions of Israel, while they already had Jordan and while Jerusalem would become an international city. Israel agreed to this and declared themselves the independent State of Israel. Again the Arab Muslims wouldn't accept this solution and Israel was attacked by five surrounding Arab nations. This was the 1948 war. Israel won this war and gained a bit more territory. Since 1948 close to a million Jews have been programed out of Arab Muslim nations into Israel. Mostly from places and lands where they had lived for centuries and even millennia. Almost all of them having no place to go except Israel. Since then several Two-State-Solutions and other solutions have been put in place. Each time Israel agreed and the Arab Muslims did not and then started conflicts or war. It wasn't until the 1960s that the Palestinians as a separate group started calling themselves Palestinians, perhaps trying to claim the land for themselves in that way, or because people didn't know what else to call them or they didn't know what to call themselves. There is more information and details concerning these things. But this is part of the history of events mostly throughout the 1900s.

Something important to remember when people say the Palestinians are descendants of the Canaanites: Canaan is the son of Ham, the brother of Shem and the son of Noah.

Let's stop the charade. The Palestinians have actually had numerous opportunities to create an independent state, but have repeatedly rejected the offers: In 1937, the Peel Commission proposed the partition of Palestine and the creation of an Arab state. In 1939, the British White Paper proposed the creation of a unitary Arab state. In 1947, the UN would have created an even larger Arab state as part of its partition plan. The 1979 Egypt-Israel peace negotiations offered the Palestinians autonomy, which would almost certainly have led to full independence. The Oslo agreements of the 1990s laid out a path for Palestinian independence, but the process was derailed by terrorism. In 2000, Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered to create a Palestinian state in all of Gaza and 97 percent of the West Bank. In 2008, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert offered to withdraw from almost the entire West Bank and partition Jerusalem on a demographic basis. In addition 1948 to 1967, Israel did not control the West Bank. The Palestinians could have demanded an independent state from the Jordanians. On the contrary whilst Jordan was in control Arafat said there was no longer a claim as it was no longer part of Palestine. Once it was back in Israeli hands it miraculously became disputed land again! This is one of many reasons Jews and Israelis are cynical. The Palestinians have spurned each of these opportunities.

[@liteenergy4843]

Don't forget that the original Mandate gave all of Israel and all of Jordan as well to the Jewish People as a National Homeland. At the same time, the Arab people received all of the rest of what was the Ottoman Empire which is much, much, much larger than Israel. Winston Churchill partitioned this in 1922, the Palestinians received Jordan as a National Homeland which is 2xs larger than Israel. Today two-thirds of the population in Jordan are Palestinians.

[@liteenergy4843]

The Palestinians did get an independent state in Gaza in 2005.

"Semitic" is in reference to a family of languages, within the larger Afro-Asiatic language group. Thus, Canaanites were "Semitic," in that they spoke and wrote a Semitic language. At least based on what I have read, there is also a good deal of archeological evidence that Canaanites were subsumed within the Israeli identity, which in many ways appears to have emerged from ashes of late-stage Canaanite society. Jews/Judeans, as the Southern people of Israel, are therefore very much the native population of the land of Israel.

@@EnaK.ktoridouKK Those are mythological biblical lineages. There is no rational reason to think there were ever brothers named Ham, Shem and whatever. And there is ZERO genetic evidence, both archaic and modern, that even begins to verify or validate the concept of semitic or hamitic/Cushitic lineages or ancestry. Canaanites of the Bronze and Iron age got 80% of their genetic ancestry from the Zagros, Caucasus and Anatolia. Ham is a type of deli meat. Canaanites were never a single lineage of people or even monolithic population. Prior to the Levant being populated by "Natufians" there were other groups of Afro Eurasians, both mixed and non, in the region and active throughout. There is zero connection between these designations and phenotype/physical appearance. The majority of Mediterranean populations, includuing in Kmt, during the Bronze age, were mixed Afro-Eurasian. But by far the majority of their ancestry was of Western Eurasian origin, from the HImalayas to Ireland, south to Morocco and back through to central Asia. Meaning, the vast majority of populations in Bronze/Iron age North Africa, all the way to Pakistan and Afghanistan were predominantly of western Eurasian origin. Not that this is very significant or relevant in regard to indigeneity or ethnic identity, Really North Avrika was a mixed AfroEurasian population going all the way back to the Neolithic and probably even pre ice age.

And because of our long and very mixed history as Jews, going all the way back to the Bronze age really when we were mixing with Amorites and Moabites and Persians and Greeks, you never know what kind of genes are going to show up 100 generations later. This is how we can be accused of being swarthy and black by Europeans while at the same time be accused of being "white European colonizers" by Arabs and people of African descent (who want to appropriate our identity).

As an Israeli-born Jew and Zionist who went to Hebrew school and was taught all this and more but who also values the truth and has a degree in history from a highly respected college, I respect the truth as much as I love Israel, and if the two are in conflict then I absolutely want to know about it.

In the main, Arabs only began calling themselves "Palestinians" in 1964 for political expediency. United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181 (Partition Resolution) of 1947 never refers to the Arabs as "Palestinians," but simply as "Arabs." The first time an international body called the Arabs "Palestinians" was in 1972 with UNGA Resolution 2949 (December 8, 1972). Before 1972, the United Nations referred to the Arabs as "inhabitants," "the population," or "the Arab civilian population." Not once did it use the term "Palestinians." - - - - Are the Arabs now calling themselves "Palestinians" the ancient Philistines? 1 - The Arabs who are now calling themselves "Palestinians" are Semites; the ancient Philistines were not. 2 - The Arabs who are now calling themselves "Palestinians" practice circumcision; the ancient Philistines did not. 3 - The Arabs who are now calling themselves "Palestinians" are monotheistic; the ancient Philistines were polytheistic, whose chief deity was Dagon. 4 - The Arabs who are now calling themselves "Palestinians" speak Arabic: the ancient Philistines' language is still being deciphered. NO, THE ARABS NOW CALLING THEMSELVES "PALESTINIANS" ARE NOT THE ANCIENT PHILISTINES, WHO INVADED THE LAND IN THE 2ND HALF OF THE 12TH CENTURY BCE. - - - - During the mandate period (1922-1948), the British called all the inhabitants of the land "Palestinians," which is why some prominent Arabs tried to disassociate themselves from the name: Lebanese American Princeton professor, Philip Hitti (1886-1978), who testified before the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry in Jerusalem in 1946 stated that, "There is no such thing as Palestine in history, absolutely not." Of course, what Hitti meant was that there was no Palestine in Arab history, which he is correct. Hitti was opposed to even using the word Palestine in maps because it was "associated in the mind of the average American, and perhaps the Englishman too, with the Jews." "There is no such country! 'Palestine' is a term the Zionists invented! There is no Palestine in the Bible. 'Palestine' is alien to us; it is the Zionists who introduced it." -- Awni Bey Abdul-Hadi, Secretary of the Arab Higher Committee, before the Peel Commission in 1937.

Are Indians still upset about it, yes! Was there a legitimate reason behind partition - debatable - but India is not whining about it. Both countries are automatic powers, but they have maintained as much civility as is possible considering the pride of Hindustan that the British cut in half. And left Kashmir to fight over. What about what happens to Muslims in China or Bosnia? People get over it! Keep provoking. As Raza Shah Pahlavi said “Palestinians are no longer doing themselves any favour, rather those supporting them are doing a disservice. Yes I will get a billion hateful messages, but I am expressing my “rudimentary, yet to be researched and analyzed point of view” Unfortunately, we Muslims are not even allowed to do that. But why? Jews are not pagans, they are one of our own! They are people of the book! If Mohammad (PbUH) was alive, he would have probably taken a harsh stance and issued his ruling concerning his Jewish “brothers” - please read the Quran and see the passages - it’s about warning us to not do what Bani Israel did, which they admit themselves! and that most Jews were hiding proofs in their scripture. Come on - come on!! If Israel can absorb Jews from around the world, why don’t Muslim nations do it too? Not as a matter of nationalism (which I am yet to analyze and research) but as a question of humanity? There are so many angles to this - it’s a whole study!

The Nazi officer in the left with the Mufti, looks a lot like Himmler. 😢

[@Kindnessloveunderstanding]

It was Himmler. I’ve seen several pictures of the Mufti with Himmler.

There very very few people’s that can truly refer to themselves as “indigenous,” peoples and lands have been conquered, and reconquered, occupied and re-occupied, history is a complicated churning and re-churning in high complexity.

I support Israel but I must correct one thing, Assyrians are still around

Golda Meir, wow! Such wisdom.

[@eitanmagaliff9772]

11 minutes in and all I’m hearing is what Jewish tradition says. No archaeological evidence or documentation of any kind.

[@samchapa4203]

Theres plenty of archeological backings and evidence in Israel. Look at the temple mount sifting project, city of david excavations, ein gedi scrolls.

[@eitanmagaliff9772]

@@samchapa4203 for sure. I’m saying he should skip the tradition stuff and get straight to actual facts.

[@samchapa4203]

@@eitanmagaliff9772 He has to include the tradition because that is what the archeological finds are based on. What good is discovering a mikveh (ritual bath) if you dont know the purpose or context?
