Do be aware that what he is saying is bigoted and hateful. He is saying things confidently and calmly, but the words themselves (eg. saying that the word Palestine was given by Jews and was just an insult) feeds an ugly sense of entitlement in anyone with supremacist beliefs. He is portraying his theories as fact when they are very far from them. There are actually facts from well-regarded publications and people that disprove his versions which makes me more inclined to think that this isn't just a misguided take on information, but a deliberately hateful speech.

I grew up in Christian churches, and I never went along with the anti-Israel bandwagon and I like to speak for the truth/factual accounts and moral values, so I'm interested in knowing where I can learn about the history and your preferred news and opinion sources concerning Israel and its struggles with other countries.

Palestine as an "Arab" or "Muslim" entity in our hearts and minds is a relatively new concept...Nowhere in the Quran or the authentic Hadith does it mention Palestine or the Arabic word "فلسطين". There is mention of the Levant/Sham region...There is mention of the people of the Levant...There is mention of Al-Quds/Jerusalem and the blessings of the city and the land around Al-Quds. There is mention of the blessings of praying in Al-Quds... But there is no mention of the fake "Palestine". The Romans named it Palestine! Then when the Romans converted to Christianity, it ended up being a western Christian name for the Holy land. When the Muslims ruled it that name was never used! Then when the British controlled it once the Ottoman Empire collapsed they brought that name back. When the Muslims ruled it they didn't call it "Palestine". If you look at old Ottoman Turk maps of the region, there is no mention of "Palestine"... It's a lie! Palestine as an Arab entity grew during World Wars 1&2 along with the growth of the Pan-Arabism ideology...Pan-Arabism was the tree and Palestine was just a small branch... The tree fell and Pan-Arabism died. Yet people are still holding on to that small branch when there are far important matters at hand.

After 40 years they have rich Canaan and make war with the canaanites. They conquer the north and south of the region. The southern is where the 2 tribes of israel positioned. It's called Judah. And the philistines or Palestinian are settlers where gaza strip now they called sea peoples they are non canaanites who live in the coastal area of canaan. They're not natives to that area. Jewish is the true owner of that land because God commanded them to conquer the canaanites and it is for them israelites not the muslim or any other groups. Understand?

This is reported by National Geography research. Not by religion book claim. So its prove that canaanite that mentioned in bible its true.

On the same research they found more than 50% palestinian decent is no from arab but from Lavant, syria, egypt and Jordan. They found palestinian had match DNA with canaanite research by American University Beirut. But suprissing most Jewis DNA match to Canaanite nit Jews. Probably inter-marriage. The most amazing is Jews and palestinian only had around 70% match. More 90% match to Canaanite is Lebanese and lavant. This research and proven DNA reported in National Geography and registered Journal. So i think with ur ideology mean Lebanese and Lavant can come back in future claim their land too there.

I don't know the history of all NA tribes so I won't pretend to know to how your identity was formed. But there isn't some monolith called minorities, it's a lie created by people that seek power through this consolidation. Do you really think Muslims and LGBT people share the expirience?

Later Greek writers such as Polemon and Pausanias also used the term to refer to the same region, which was followed by Roman writers such as Ovid, Tibullus, Pomponius Mela, Pliny the Elder, Dio Chrysostom, Statius, Plutarch as well as Roman Judean writers Philo of Alexandria and Josephus.” This is the actual history. “Pelesheth” does NOT mean invaders. It comes from the Hebrew root word “palash” [פָלַשׁ] which means “act of mourning” or “to roll in”, and has been transliterated as roll and wallow, and there’s speculation it was applied in migratory terms. Additionally, modern palestinians are not exclusively descended from Philistines, but also Canaanites and Jews themselves.

Hi Rudy, this is a nice video portraying a lot of hope for a better and peaceful future :-) That said, I must add an important comment regarding your saying on 5.40min "the United Nations decided to split up the land into 2". Well, the United Nations cannot decide such things Rudy. Both the United Nations General Assembly and - in most cases - the International Court of Justice have advisory powers only. This is very fundamental. Many people think that the UN is some kind of a powerful world government but that is not true at all. It is mainly an administrative organization. You mentioned the year 1948. I assume you meant the UN Palestine partition plan of 1947. Many people tend to think that UN resolutions and plans are binding. This is usually not the case. This also includes the 1947 UN Palestine Partition Plan (resolution 181). It could have been legally binding however the Arabs rejected it. What IS legally binding are international agreements such as, in this case, the Mandate for Palestine (1922) which was signed by all members of the League of Nations including former occupier Turkey and which was later also accepted by the UN.

[@ansamgroshong]

(I know your comment is from 2 years ago, but hoping you notice this:) Could you please explain a little more? I've been trying to learn about the conflict, but I still have a lot of questions. if the UN couldn't decide on the land, then who gets to decide the borders? and what happens if there are no international agreements? since the borders changed a few times in history (with Egypt and Jordan) then what are the parts that are considered occupied now, and how are those determined?

[@danitadmor]

@@ansamgroshong Hi Ansam, the UN (usually) does not get to decide about land(s) and borders. I wrote usually because they did come out with a partition plan for Palestine in 1947 (resolution 181). Although a plan by itself is judicially non binding in terms of international law, however, if that plan was accepted and signed by both Jews and Arabs then (and only then) it would have become legal under international law and so its borders too. But since the Arabs rejected it then that plan became meaningless. What many people call 'the borders of 1948' were actually not recognized borders rather armistice lines (cease fire lines). After the peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan in the 70s and 90s they became recognized borders. Therefore the (internationally recognized) borders with Egypt and Jordan did not "change a few times in history" as your words suggested. Many countries around the world did not even go through any 'judicial process' and indeed no international agreements! That was not the case with the Palestine region, the Levant (and including today's Iraq). The reason that this region did go through a judicial process lays at the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in the end of WW1 (they ruled that whole region). At that point the League of Nations (the organization that preceded the UN) appointed the winning powers, Great Britain and France, to establish mandates in that region. The mandates that were established were the Mandate for Greater Syria (which then included Lebanon), the Mandate for Mesopotamia (Iraq) and the Mandate for Palestine. And the goal was that France and GB would assist the local populations towards establishing their independence asap. The mandates were legally binding under international law, signed by all members of the League of Nations including the defeated country Turkey. I hope this clarifies things a bit?

[@ansamgroshong]

@@danitadmor thank you. I appreciate your taking the time to explain and write all this. I did have another question. but i just need a day or two to write again (takes me some effort to write - medical problems).

[@ansamgroshong]

@@danitadmor Hello yes I understand the clarification you made about the UN Re what I wrote, yes I guess I wasn’t accurate. I only meant the control over the land changed, but I didn’t know what changes were considered agreed on borders and which weren’t. I went over your reply more than once and I think you answered everything. (You really explain well. Thank you). I’m from Iraq (though now I live in the US) so I know about the ottomans but I didn’t know the details you wrote. It wasn’t only till some years go when I started to think how we always thought of the western countries as the occupiers and colonizers, but nobody talks about the ottomans. As re Israel- Palestine conflict, I don’t know if you’re aware we have a very very different story on the other side. Earlier this year I came across some videos by an Israeli person (a tour guide) on youtube, and I was surprised how all he said was different from what I had known (or thought had known). I’ve learned more since then, esp after Oct 7. My view has changed completely. I meant to ask about the settlements, but I think maybe I better wait and find some videos. I don't want to make it too much for you. Maybe one question: (if ok): a few have mentioned the Jordan (or Transjordan) too was part of the mandate of Palestine, and say therefore the arabs already had a bigger part. But not all Israeli supporters mention this. Is it a debated issue? Thank you again.

[@danitadmor]

@@ansamgroshong You're welcome Ansam, and no problem for asking the questions! (that's what we're for, not? ;-) Indeed many people have many stories to tell about the Israel-Palestine conflict but what I wrote earlier wasn't a story rather international law: the Mandate for Palestine. You can read the contents of the mandate on the site of the UN (I think I cannot send links here..?) As I mentioned earlier, with the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the winning forces of Great Britain and France got control over the remaining areas of the Middle East that used to belong to the Ottomans. That was Iraq, Greater Syria and Palestine. Political rights under the mandates of Iraq and Greater Syria were given to the Arab populations in those areas whereas in Palestine (which at first Transjordan was indeed included in) were given to the Jews. But 2 years later Great Britain decided to separate Transjordan (which amounts for 74% of Palestine) from 'western Palestine' and give that area to the Hashemites. Jews were no longer allowed to settle in that area. So when the actual Mandate for Palestine was signed in 1922-1923, Transjordan was excluded from it. But, according to the mandate, Jews were (and, as long as no new international agreements are signed/finalized also - are) allowed to settle in all of the remining areas of Palestine west from the Jordan river (and they are even encouraged to do so according to the international community!) - this is all to be found in the mandate. The mandate, except for the fact that the British have returned it back then to the UN and as long as no new international agreements have been signed/finalized, is valid up to this day.

We have many petitions in the Ottoman archives that were written by western visitors and travellers who ask permission; even in these petitions in French Italian German or English the petitioners or their ambassadors mention the word Palestine but while translating them into Turkish the Ottomans replace the word with Saida, Quds etc. This shows how they were decided to not use the word Palestine.

Why can't you just accept the truth? This is your problem, not mine.

So I guess you can't be that ignorant, again, you're after another fraud. However, keeping my wishful thinking still, I want you to know that this is never the case. Ottoman settlement policy did not allow the Jewish population to increase in any city (an exception can be the ones in Greece). And you can be absolutely sure that the Jewish population did not increase in and around Jerusalem only as a result of the Ottoman government's policy. It was a deliberate limitation. This was even true for the Christians. So please stop abusing my time and good intention.

One correction here, the Philistine did survive David as a group around the Pentapolis. The displacement of the Philistines didn't occur till the Assyrians, who would do the same to the Israelites/Samaritans and vassalize Judea. Excluding the early Arab invaders, by the time of the Crusades the land was not known as Palestine. It was known as Syrian, just like under the Ottomans. While there were many attempts of create smaller kingdoms within the Ottoman Levant, outside of Syria, the only identifiable group trying to gain an identity during this time were the Maronite Christians where the modern state of Lebanon is from, although the French made it larger, causing a much smaller Maronite population. There was no Palestine, there was no Jordan. There was a Kindgom of Jerusalem. The land of Palestine is is name kept alive by Christians and the west. They called the land Palestine during the crusades, not the Arabs. This is why you have people in the west refer to Judea at the time of Jesus as Palestine at the time of Jesus. They associate a name to the land that was not called that until a 100 years after the death of Jesus. And while the Hebrew definition of Palestine/Philistine is different, but it looks like the Latin Palestine is related to the Greek word pelasgian, so not only was it an insult to Jews, it was a greco-roman claim to the land. They knew the Philistines were ancient Greeks.

But prior to that, during the nearly 400 years of the Ottoman rule, the land was part of "El-Sham", the southern part of Syria province. in the 400 years under the Seljuks who preceded the Ottomans, there was also no mention of "Palestine", in much the same way as there wasn't any mention of "Palestine" under the Crusader kingdom or the Abbasid/Fatimid early muslim empires.

“Modern archaeology has identified 12 ancient inscriptions from Egyptian and Assyrian records recording likely cognates of Hebrew Pelesheth. The term "Peleset" (transliterated from hieroglyphs as P-r-s-t) is found in five inscriptions referring to a neighboring people or land starting from c. 1150 BCE during the Twentieth dynasty of Egypt. The first known mention is at the temple at Medinet Habu which refers to the Peleset among those who fought with Egypt in Ramesses III's reign, and the last known is 300 years later on Padiiset's Statue. Seven known Assyrian inscriptions refer to the region of "Palashtu" or "Pilistu", beginning with Adad-nirari III in the Nimrud Slab in c. 800 BCE through to a treaty made by Esarhaddon more than a century later. Neither the Egyptian nor the Assyrian sources provided clear regional boundaries for the term. The first clear use of the term Palestine to refer to the entire area between Phoenicia and Egypt was in 5th century BCE Ancient Greece, Herodotus wrote of a "district of Syria, called Palaistinê" (Ancient Greek: Συρίη ἡ Παλαιστίνη καλεομένη) in The Histories, which included the Judean mountains and the Jordan Rift Valley. Approximately a century later, Aristotle used a similar definition for the region in Meteorology, in which he included the Dead Sea. Later Greek writers such as Polemon and Pausanias also used the term to refer to the same region, which was followed by Roman writers such as Ovid, Tibullus, Pomponius Mela, Pliny the Elder, Dio Chrysostom, Statius, Plutarch as well as Roman Judean writers Philo of Alexandria and Josephus.” This is the actual history. “Pelesheth” does NOT mean invaders. It comes from the Hebrew root word “palash” [פָלַשׁ] which means “act of mourning” or “to roll in”, and has been transliterated as roll and wallow, and there’s speculation it was applied in migratory terms. Additionally, modern palestinians are not exclusively descended from Philistines, but also Canaanites and Jews themselves.

I have been alive long enough to remember (yep, I'm old) when the problem was Arab vs Israeli. Palestinians (people who lived in the area of Palestine, Arabs, Jews, Christians, whoever) came into the fore in the 60's with the failure of Arab armies to defeat Israel. That struck me then as probably a much more successful tactic. In 1977 a PLO spokesman said it publicly - The Palestinian "people" do not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means of continuing the struggle against Israel and our Arab unity. I have always wondered why the incredibly wealthy Gulf states or Saudis do not solve the Palestinian problem. They could build them cities in the desert and make them bloom. Makes me think they prefer them being where they are. Only a thought.

Your argument is such a far reach. You keep saying it was called mandate of.. region of.. area of... then say Palestine and just because the word COUNTRY was not used "according to you" does not mean it doesnt exist. You can't justify the creation of Israel with trying to restore an injustice that happened THOUSANDS of years ago. That is way far back, without mentioning all the empire takeovers that happened after that and that included other areas around Palestine such as Lebanon, Syria Iraq, etc... Would you then argue that these countries don't exist because they weren't one society speaking one language?? And what about BEFORE Judea? Before the founding of Judaism? No one lived there? That video as a whole was a ridiculous to justify the legitimacy of Israel who today is an ethostate that treats its non-jew citizens as second class citizens and is willing to give full citizenship to people from anywhere in the world if they have converted to Judaism.

The biblical Palestinians/Philistines are academically thought to have been an Aegean/Greekish people. They could have spoken local languages (Canaanite dialects and other Afroasiatic languages) or whatever language their ancestors came over with from across the Mediterranean. Modern Palestinians are likely significantly of native stock. Their ancestors would have spoken Aramaic, Hebrew/Canaanite subdialects, possibly some ancient Arabic speakers in there (maybe Nabateans and other ancient northern Arabic speakers were absorbed over the years), possibly some knowledge of Greek and Latin at some point.

[@Channel-ml4qv]

Ty Rone Palestinians are not “significantly from native stock”. Palestinians have so many family names from Jordan and Egypt and still have their family names tied to those regions. If you ever meet Arabs from this region you will see they really stick to their families even far extended families. They still keep the names of the families and tribes of other countries.

Interesting bit of history. You are aware that there were people’s living in this land prior to any of these people’s that fight over the land today.

[@Moshe_Dayan44]

If you're referring to the Canaanites, well those were Jews, too, but they hadn't yet accepted the idea of one G-d. But they were the same group of people, so really the conflict between the 'Israelites' and the 'Canaanites' was something more along the lines of the US Civil War than an invasion of one people by another.

[@brendanpowell6043]

@@Moshe_Dayan44 I mean we could go back further even than that, but the further back we go the less historical information we have to go on and it then becomes more chemistry and biology. My point being that the justification of the border plans and the current borders make little sense. Effectively what has happened is similar to Pakistan and India where people were uprooted based on religion and in my opinion that is a terrible foundation on which to build a nation as it is only one element of the cultural ties to a homeland. The assumption seems to be that all those people displaced upon Jewish resettlement was that they were descendants of land thieves and conquerors

@@brendanpowell6043 sounds like the competing histories of the British Isles, eh? Although that lot are exhausted and their energies dissipated by a couple 100 years of migration into other people's territories oh wait .... that's the whole land thieves thing and now their lands are being usurped by invaders from conquered, colonized lands. If you find all that too recent, too painful, then you should read more about the rise and fall of ancient Empires like Rome, the Ancient Near East, etc. In there you'll find the texts of the Wars against the Jews and the adoption of the main tenets of their religion mixed with resurrection theory and renamed as Christianity, their ultimate defeat, banishment and the final and deliberate attempt at their obliteration by renaming the territory as Palestina. You may also find that until the discovery of the Rosetta stone the peoples and places of the Old Testament (including Philistines eg Samson and Delilah) were derided as fairy tales. Now we're told that they all always existed but the Jews whose texts had kept their names alive, are made-up colonizers.
